I'll Save You

Chapter 2: Memorabilia

I start panicking and frantically looked around my bag. Sean looked over and began to howl with laughter like the ass he was.

"Sean give it here, that's not funny!" I cried.

He reluctantly handed over the necklace and I hung it around my neck before twirling the pendent on its chain. I quickly tucked it under my shirt and closed my bag.

Sean let out a sad chuckle. "I feel bad that I never met your mother..." He started.

I angrily stared daggers at his saddened expression. "Drop it Sean, you know I hate the subject."

He shrugged and looked down at my fathers watch. My dad gave us all something to remember him by when he was bit. He gave Sean his watch, me my mothers necklace and Chloe his Medal of Honor. I was a little jealous of Chloe at first since she got one of his prized possessions.

My father realized that and told me the story behind his knife that he had given me, for my 20th birthday. He told me how it's saved his life more than once, and that hopefully it would return the favor to me.

I cracked up a little at the memory and quickly strapped the knife to my hip. I stood up and climbed down below to take a walk.

Sean poked his head out from above. "Whatcha doin?" Sean called out jokingly.

I looked around on the floor looking for anything of use. "Nothing, just looking around." I looked up and he narrowed his eyes.

Sean had trust issues with everything and everyone, it had started when they first moved in. It hasn't stopped ever since.

He shrugged and returned to fiddling with his watch, even though I could feel him looking at me from the corner of his eye.

I ducked around the corner of the container and peered into the warehouse. Sure enough Chloe was running around full speed, laughing and killing with her arrows. It was her way of blowing off steam. I notice a blue item jiggling on her back and noticed a medicine bag decorated with a white cross bouncing up and down with her steps. She turned suddenly and ran straight at me, motioning for me to get ready for the corpses I nodded.

"SEAN, GET READY!" I shouted. He quickly climbed down and took his knives out.

I barely had enough time to unsheathed my ninjato's  before Chloe burst through the door panting and laughing.

"CLEAR!" She called and ran to take cover behind the containers. I turn back to the task at hand.

Sean had already started to throw his knifes. A corpse stalked over to me, it was clearly a female since she wore a hot pink dress and had long blonde hair coated with muck. I swung my sword and chopped her in two before I turned my attention to another freak that was attacking Sean.

I quickly shove my sword through its head and it fell to the ground in front of him. "Thanks." He mumbled to and turned to attack another corpse.

We were finally down to our last one, an old female corpse. I sigh as I shove the sword through her head making her moans cease. Something grabbed my ankle and I cried out. I tried to shake it off but it wouldn't budge.

I tried to swing at it with my sword and missed. Sean just laughed as he swiftly threw a knife and it embedded itself in the corpses head. I make a sound of disgust as I wriggle my foot out from under its grasp.

"Stupid dead thing." I mutter under my breath.
