They made their way down some corridors, Warren went first followed by Murphy and Doc and then 10k carrying Cassandra. Ellie was behind them with her crossbow raised in case some zombies tried to sneak up on him especially when he couldn't defend himself. They came to a door and Warren opened it to reveal a dark corridor.
"Can you see anything?"
"Hold on, little too dark." Warren said lifting up a flash light to reveal the way "There's some kind of emergency lights flashing"
"Dude, it says quarantine" Doc said holding Murphy back when he tried to rush forward. "Can't we just believe them?"
"What are you, high?" Murphy said turning to look at him "We're infected already, remember?" He said pulling out of his grasp and he walked down the corridor followed by the others who had now taken out their flash-lights except for 10k as Ellie was now standing closer behind him to light the way.
"What is this place?" Warren said as they came to a corridor full of doors with small windows in them.
"This isn't a hospital. It's a god damn hall of horrors" Murphy said looking through one of the windows
"Hey, look" Warren said drawing their attention to another door and Ellie came to see what they were looking at "Oh my God"
In the room was a woman turned and her body and the room were covered in flies, not being able to bear anymore Ellie walked away to check on some of the other rooms.
"I hope God doesn't know about this" Doc said "Cuz if he does..."
"We should give her mercy"
"No. If we open this door, them flies are gonna be feeding on us" Doc said
"Over here" Ellie said shining her flash light on a door. She saw everyone turn to look at her including 10k who had put Cassandra down and was now having a look around. "This one's gone. The door's open"
"What was it?" Doc asked
"Better question is where'd it go?" Warren said when they heard a zombie growl
"Well whatever it is, it's still here" Doc said and the flashing emergency lights revealed a zombie wearing scrubs leaning down behind the pipes but he was moving weird it was like it was moving like a monkey
"Shut the...""There's another one" 10K said as the growling got louder
"Murphy. Go talk to them. Do...do that thing you do" Doc said Murphy pushing him forward
Murphy walked forward and got down to the zombies eye level and they froze for a few seconds before they started growling again.
"Guys. These aren't regular zombies. They're some kind of mutant thing" He said when suddenly they charged at him and Murphy quickly stepped back "I don't think they like me!" he screamed and the once zombie got hold of him and slammed him into the wall. Ellie tried to get a shot but another zombie charged at Murphy and soon there was a flurry of movement as Murphy struggled to get them off. When suddenly they heard a crack and they saw Murphy standing there with his hands covered in blood and the zombies were headless.
"Let's go find Merch." He said and he turned and walked down the corridor, completely disregarding that he had crushed their skulls
"What's he gonna do when he catches up to Merch?" Warren said
"I dunno, but I'm glad I'm not her" Doc said
"I'm more concerned for the fact that he was able to do that without a weapon" Ellie said dumbfounded
"Be ready for anything. Let's go." Warren said lifting up her flash light
They had come out of the dark corridors and was now walking down a brightly lit one. Murphy was in front now, followed by Doc, Warren and 10k with Cassandra and then Ellie. From where she was she could hear Cassandra's heaving breathing and she knew 10k could too.
