Chapter 27 - We fight, We die

"Here they coooome!" A shout by a townsfolk. People were panicking. My team is here, by my side except for Empress. She's still asleep from what happened to her.

I promised that I won't leave her side, but I have to help. I have to protect our community, even though we've been here for only a short time. If this were to be our shelter for the rest of our lives, then we better help protect it.

"Get ready!" An encouraging shout by Katarina while she is in her fighting stance.

First few walkers approached the trench of logs. We were in front of the gate, and the trenches were just infront of it, protected by wooden spears planted frontward.

"Hurgh!!" An expression by Eric as he struck an undead in the head.

Not long until the first few walkers were killed.

"Alright! We got it!" Katarina said in excitement.

"If this continues, we'll be alright!" Eric added, encouraging all to be strong.

"It is not done yet. It's a horde that's coming. You don't know how strong an undead is until you're overrun by them. Get ready, here they come." I said.

Several walkers came at us at once. We were just five of us protecting the front gate. Me, Eric, Katarina, and two guys of whom I don't know.

Walkers lounged at Eric, Katarina is grappling with two undead walkers, the two guys, I don't know. Killed? Eaten alive? I don't know. I can't see them as I am grappling with 4 undead lounging at me. I was backed at the gate, shouting, holding all four at once making sure they do't bite me. Everything just went to hell. It looks like the world has slowed down.

Eric. Eric... has been bitten. I saw it with my eyes, he screams as the walkers eat him. I watched him die. Tears fell down my face. I was angered, so I used all my strength to push all undead walkers away, killed them all with my sword. After that, I looked at Eric's lifeless body and the undead around him, eating him. I raged charge on the undead and tackled them to the wall, slicing their head into pieces. Eric's faith is the same with Katarina, and the two others. I want to cry but I was exhausted. Thus, the community was overrun by undead. People screaming, people being eaten alive, and the worst of all, the room where Empress is sleeping...

Was flooded by the undead.

I cried, and cried. I can't do anything. I was in shock. It all happened so fast, like a flash flood flushing a small town. Everythin just went in hell. So I ran. I ran far. Into the forest, didn't care if I were to be ambushed by bandits, or overrun by the undead. I just... didn't care. I was too hurt to be thinking of anything.

I was carelessly running away, that I didn't watch the route I was taking. And suddenly, I bumped my head into a tree, knocking me down, knocking me out. Everything just went black.

10 years later...
