Night Of The Dead

Chapter 4

Stan was about to shout another question, but Sam's body began to shake violently. "shes having a seizure!" "i know stan, let her ride it out!" danni roared back at him. "help her!" stanley screamed, but danni quickly yelled back "theres nothing we can do!" her body jerked around wildly for a minute, then her mid section stood up, and her convulsions stopped. Danni checked her pulse "shes alive. We have to get out of here" stan looked back at the now smaller body hanging out of the pod. "NOW STAN!" Danni hollered. Stanley quickly climbed the edge of the crater, then Danni threw sam over his shoulder and began to climb out, with monsterous strength. When they made it out, they tore through the wilderness like two four wheelers. Every few seconds, they got cut by thorns but ignored them. On the way to the truck, they saw red & blue lights. "thank god, the police!" stan said "run faster, they won't reason with us if we have an unconscious girl" "they can help us, danni!" "they will shoot us in this position, get to the truck!" the brothers ran quickly as they heard the sirens. Once they made it to the truck, Danni quickly placed sam in the back and got in. Directly after, stan sped off spinning in a circle and going straight down the path they came. Two squad cars begin chasing them, but was nowhere near. Stan drove like a madman until they finally hit the road. Sam was breathing, but very slowly. Danni had a million thoughts running through his mind. He didn't have to tell Stan to go to the hospital. It was apparent that they needed a docter. The only problem was that it would be about an hour until they made it there. Danni was about to panic, but he realized that sam laid still. He put his finger under her nose. There was no breath at all "No sam. Don't do this" he said quietly as he placed both hands on her chest. He gently forced down once., then two more times and paused, then he held her nose while opening her mouth and forcing air from his lungs into hers, then he put his ear to her nose. Nothing came.. "NO!" he yelled loud enough for stan to hear. Trying to keep his eyes on the road, tears streamed down his red cheeks, He slammed his foot down on the gas pedal. In the back of the truck, Danni pressed down on Sam's chest several times, then attempted to fill her lungs with air once again. As soon as their lips connected again, sam let out a muffled wet cough. That same thick black liquid spewed from her mouth directly into his. Danni tried spitting it out, but it was no use. The more he spat and coughed, the weaker his body got. Stan had his teeth clenched tight as he sped past cars. The only relief he had was that the police were gone. While looking in the rearview mirror, he noticed he couldn't see danni. Right after that, he heard a thud "Danni what's going on!" He got no reply.. "Danni, answer me!" still nothing. He drove across some railroad tracks while turning on the lights and realized his fingers were tingling. Afterward he ignored it then stopped on the side of a dirt road and got out in a hurry. He climbed up and saw sam and danni both unconscious. He began to sob as he checked their breathing. They both were breathing fine but it hurt to see them like that. He looked closer at their skin and noticed small dark veins all over them. Nearly going into shock, he cried out loudly. No one could hear him. He fell to his knees next to them. He couldn't figure out why his body felt so weak. Then he remembered touching the pod. That same tingly feeling begin to swim over his body. He looked at his hand, then flinched at what he saw. Thick black throbbing veins encircled it. He tried to yell, but no noise came. His vision blurred and he could barely see. Next came a loud knocking sound. He tried to figure out what it was. He opened his eyes wide, only to realize he was face down on the bed of the truck.. The knocking sound was his head hitting the bed of the truck. He blinked once, then blacked out.
