COD Zombies short stories

We are Broken (Misty X Marlton)

( This story is with Misty,  if I can I am going to see if I can make it sad by adding a little twist... let's see what we got!)

We are Broken (Misty X Marlton)

POV- Misty

I stood in the bus shooting the horde of zombies that followed closely behind... I had already gone down at least five times and Marlton wouldn't leave me... If the bus left then he stayed behind. He never left me...

Now as the time went on and as the waves became more and more aggressive with more undead corpses, it was only us two who remained. Russman had died by falling into the giant crack at the laboratory. It was either him getting killed by zombies or ending his life as he had known it...

Then, there was Stuhlinger. He actually saved Marlton's life by running into the horde of zombies and reviving him causing him to go down. Marlton tried to get to him, but Stuhlinger stopped him. He smiled at Marlton and I and then he simply bled out, a painful thing to watch especially for the both of us. However, Now it was just Marlton and me. I was standing in the bus as Marlton watched zombies get killed by the front ram which chopped through the beasts without any problems.

As our bus continued trudging its way through my mind could only focus on what our next stop would be. Of course, we were almost trapped by the electricity man who randomly appeared. Every single time he showed we would be coming to a stop at the town, or so it seemed to be that way.

Every time I saw that man he would always come for me. His face unseeable, only leaving me with nothing. Yet, as I was prepared for the blow from the man to come, I realized it had never happened... Once I looked around I saw only the horse of zombies that would rip me to shreds if I did not start moving, while also a few feet in front of me there was Marlton lying on the cold cement.

Thoughts came to my mind causing a panic before his voice shot through my brain and my nerves told my body to move. Yet, I could not just leave Marlton to be breakfast, lunch or dinner for these walking corpses. I could not be alone... Which caused me to pick him up, and bolt for the vault. Inside the back room, I had managed to close the broken door that barely stood by its hinges into the frame and stepped away waiting for the screams of agony from the dead, poor souls.

" M...Mis...ty..." Marlton weakly called out. I wanted to revive him, but at the same time, it felt as though I couldn't.

" What Marlton?" I ask before he puts his hand up towards my face to close some of the space between us. Marlton's hand cups my cheek as looks into my now glossy eyes.

" I'll be fine Misty..." Starts off Marlton. I feel the tears slip down my cheeks before I found myself shaking my head not believing him.

" No, I... I can't live without you... Please no...." I whimper out. His smile breaking through, embedding itself into my brain. More tears began to fall from my burning eyes.

" I love you Misty..." Crokes out Marlton. I could only stare. My throat felt as though it became dry as though it had suddenly turned into a desert.

" No... No, don't say that." I pleaded before I watched Marlton's life slowly start to fade. I sat there holding Marlton's limp body in my arms as tears continued to flow from my eyes.

" I... love... you..." Marlton weakly states once more before the light that once filled my heart from seeing his smile faded to a dead stare. Sobbing was all I could do, it felt as though I lost everything even though Marlton was just a stranger to me a few days ago. I stayed the way I was for a bit longer before I finally stood from my position and headed towards the door opening it as gently as possible while a loud creak from the broken metal hinges filled the atmosphere. The gun on my hip and its cold steel found its way to my hand while the groans of the flesh eaters were tuned out from my thoughts. It was as though everything went silent before I could finally allow that one phrase that I feared at one point come out of my mouth. I love you too... Marlton...
