Love and Rot

Chapter 2

We started to walk away from the edge of the rotting building they we still stood in. I looked back to see an abyss of where I let a heavy burden off of my shoulders.  Sara and I started to head down the corridor when the rotten started to flood out of the classrooms. we were out numbered and there were only one way out of it. I looked around and saw the stairway behind them rot free and I know for a fact that way leads to the first floor where we can get out of here. 

"What are you thinking Rex?" Sara asks me worryingly 

"I'm gonna get us out of here don't worry just stay close to me." I reply picking up a tattered door off from the floor. I shift the weight until it was easy enough for me to hold without putting too much strain on my arms. I backed up a couple steps and charged forward. I thought we weren't going to make it through but miraculously the last couple of the rotten were off to the sides so I didn't need to hit them. I threw the door off to the side and we rushed down the stairs.

"THAT WAS INSANE, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!" Sara screamed as the rotten were still chasing us.

"Well it worked didn't it so come on lets get out of here before we become the main course of these guy's meals." I reply skipping stairs as we rush for the front door. The building shook again and that beast from earlier came crashing through the wall from the direction of the cafeteria. 

"RUN!" I screeched, diving to the right of it. 

"Look out!" Sara yelled as I turn around to see giant fist about to hit me then everything went black.

I must have been dreaming because I saw, between fading in and out, Sara taking on the beast single handed and just took it out like she has been doing it her whole life. I saw Sara dodge to her right grabbing a broken piece of pipe on the way and counter away a swing from the beast which was about three times bigger than her. Sara then picked up some dirt off the ground and threw it in the beast's eyes. It roared so loudly in rage that it woke me up out of my hysteria of being in a dream. I shook my head and watched in awe as Sara then runs to the back of the beast as it wildly swings about and drives the broken pipe into the spine of it. The beast is stops a moment and then falls face first to the ground. She simply walked off the back off  its back and smirked in satisfaction. 

"Wait you know how to fight them?" I ask, Sara looks at me and her eyes were completely white and her expression was as if she turned into a different person. Here eyes start to return to normal, and she gives me a look.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" She asked. I simply pointed to the dead beast and she jumped.

"Did you do that while I was knocked out?" 

"No Sara, you did that." 

"How is that possible that thing is like the size of a truck."

"Well, when I asked how you did that I saw your eyes were, different."

"Different how?"

"They were completely white."

"Oh no, not again." Sara says and starts to run away.

"Sara wait, where are you going!" I yell as I chase after her.

"Get away! Just get away! I don't want to hurt you!" She yelled.

"Sara don't your gonna run into that-- " I yelled but it was too late she already fell into the gap in the floor leading to the basement where all the tremors have been coming from, now a low growl is coming from it. I hear a scream then a very loud roar. 

"Sara I'm coming!" I jump down not thinking that it could be a ten foot fall or a twenty foot fall.
