A shot was suddenly heard, Francis turned his head towards the noise, that's when he saw a car fly in the air,"MOVE" he yells to Sarah, pushing her back as the car landed just a few inches from them, and a HUGE roar was heard through the air. 

Sarah landed with a hard thud on her small butt, staring down the street, and covered her mouth. She was looking at a huge oversized creature, covered in thick skin it looked like and giant arms with shorts on. The thing beat it's chest then looked their way.

"WHAT the fuck is that thing?" Sarah asks him, trying to get back to her feet.

"It ain't barney, I can tell ya that" Francis got up, turning to her,"RUN" he grabbed her hand, running with her the other way as the thing roared again.

The Tank pounded on the ground, then ran towards their direction, quickly grabbing a lighting pole from the street. He lifted it high in the air, then threw it straight at Sarah and Francis looking to kill them, the Tank full of rage and excitement.

Francis turned around, then quickly fell down as a lighting pole flew in their direction landing right ontop of Sarah's right leg. The man held onto his back, quickly grabbing hold of his shotgun, turning and laid on his back pointing his gun towards the thing.

"Aahh" Sarah cried out, holding onto her right leg, and tried to push the pole from her leg,"help" is all she could say.

"I'll be right with you" Francis tells her, quickly getting back to his feet, pointing the shotgun at the tank, a cut formed on his forehead as blood trickled down his right eye.

The Tank was going wild, tossing cars left and right all around him, he turned to his right, spotting a fence with infected inside then grabbed hold of the fence as it shocked him tearing it from the ground, ignoring the shocks as he tossed it towards the two people, but missed. The infected unleashed.

Francis quickly grabs the pull, pushing it off Sarah's leg,"Can you walk on it?"

"Barely" she tells him, holding onto her right leg, blood coming from the knee.

Francis lifts her up, tossing her to his shoulder then placed her on the hood of a car, noticing the infected were free,"Don't get scared, I know what I'm doing" he tells her.

"What?" Sarah sits on the hood of the red Chevy, watching Francis point his gun towards the danger,"what are you going to do?"

Francis points the shotgun towards the Tank, who was crushing some of the infected with his big fists like bugs,"I only got three shells left".

He took a step forward, aiming at one of the gas tanks of a car nearby, as the Tank took a few big steps closer, the ground shaking like he was a T-Rex, then pulled the trigger. But missed, that's when the tank noticed him again, and started to come his direction. 

"Come on" Francis tells himself, aiming at another car a little closer to him, and the Tank and pulled the trigger, missed again,"SHIT".

The Tank suddenly rushed towards Francis, that's when Francis used his last shell and pulled the trigger, the shells hitting the next car as it exploded right by the Tank setting him afire, and blew up two other cars behind it like something from a Die Hard movie. The infected surrounding the tank also got set afire.

The impact sent Francis flying backwards, knocking Sarah off the car onto the ground. The Tank on fire running around like a blind rat in a trap. Tossing his arms around tossing cars aside from him, he would take a few steps closer to Francis, then The Tank just dropped right beside him, staying motionless as the fire burnt away his flesh.

Francis lifted his head up, turning his attention back to Sarah,"You alright?"

"Your fucking crazy" Is all she said to him, using the car to try and lift herself up,"OUCH" she cries out, and drops to her knee again.

"Here" Francis goes over to her, helping her up again carrying her in his arms, as another explosion was heard right behind him walking away from the action.

Then he dropped to a knee dropping Sarah,"Aahh" feeling a bullet rip right through his right leg, leaving a bloody mark, raising his head up to see who the shooter was.

A man in a suit, and a handgun pointed at Francis speaks,"Give me the shotgun" the man orders him, Nick orders him as he then had the gun pointed at the 19 year old girl,"or the girl gets it!"
