My Angel among the Damned (CrankGamePlays X Reader)

Chapter 7

Neeeeeeew chapter. But gory. Low key gore tho.

~~~~~~~~~~

You take a deep breath as you finish telling them your side of the mess you are all in. The three of them exchange looks with each other, clearly not sure how to respond.

But you find yourself pulled into Mark's side. You all stop walking and Mark completely wraps his arms around your middle. You respond by wrapping your arms around him. Ethan and Tyler's arms soon follow, creating an impromptu group hug.

"Um. The fuck?" A voice sound from behind you. The four of you pull apart to see Alyssa pulling the least attractive face that is a cross between disgust and confusion. She has her hand on her hip and is glaring at you. James is beside her equally confused but without the look of disgust and the glare.

"Don't even worry 'bout it, Alyssa." Mark says almost tiredly. She just scoffs and starts marching forward, making sure to shove you on her way past. She also grabs Ethan by the forearm and drags him forward with her. James gives you a look of sympathy that is mirrored by Tyler and Mark before they all begin to walk forward, you following behind.

Forty minutes of silence. Well, silence except Alyssa talking at Ethan. Twenty minutes of her whiney voice going on and on and on about God knows what. You are about ready to lurch forward and strangle her.

As you are thinking of very colourful ways to kill her, Mark grabs your arm, pulling you to a halt. Tyler and James notice this and stop too.

"Would you shut the fuck up for a second, Alyssa?" Mark snaps. Surprisingly, she stops talking and silence surround you all. Except, it isn't silent because there is the soft sound of groaning. Not too loud but definitely loud enough to tell that they are close. And getting closer.

The boys have their battle faces on. Guns and knives of all assortments out and a stone cold expression. This is completely opposite to the looks of happiness and childlike-wonder you are used to on Ethan, Mark and Tyler and it seems strange. The groans move closer.

Connor leans down to whisper in your ear - which is quite a feat considering he looks like he is something like 6 foot 7 tall, "Run."

The six of you spring into movement, running away from the noise. While running, you manage to swing your bag in front of you and pull out your machete you had sitting in the bottom of your bag.

Now armed, you run to be in front of the unarmed Alyssa and move towards the front of your small pack.

You hear Alyssa scream something along the lines of 'they're following us' or 'they're getting closer' which is quickly followed by Tyler yelling that you are almost there.

Running. Running. Your lungs screaming for you to stop. To catch your breath. Zombies groaning and Alyssa screaming. Feet, both bare and covered, slapping the ground.

Alyssa lets out a piercing scream and you turn to see that she has tripped and the horde is closing in.

Then, the zombies slow, and a single figure emerges.

Dark brown matted hair, blotched skin, deep oozing cuts in their side and sickly green skin.

But you still recognise her.

It's Blaire.

Seeing your friend, no matter how far gone, makes you freeze. It's been months. Over a year. Yet there she is.

Alyssa scrambles up, attempting to escape, but Zombie Blaire is faster.

You watch as the shell of your friend grabs the back of Alyssa and bites into her shoulder before pulling back, taking a stringy chunk of skin with her, blood pouring and muscle tearing. Alyssa lets out a piercing scream, but you can't turn away.

Normally, zombies will take one or two bites and move on to the next living being but it appears that Zombie Blaire wants the girl very very dead.

Other zombies move forward towards the screaming girl, but Blaire growls at them and they move back from Alyssa. Blaire digs her thumb nails into Alyssa's eyes, pulling them out one by one, leaving them hanging from her skull, still attached by the nerve.

Alyssa still screams.

You faintly hear Tyler and Mark calling behind you, telling you to move, but you can't.

The horrors in front of you have you stuck in place. A tall zombie with flesh torn from his face showing his darkened skull and blood soaked clothes barely hanging on goes to step towards you, arms outstretched and murder in his soulless eyes, but Zombie Blaire growls again.

You don't have time to even think about how strange it is that she seems to be protecting you because she has now bitten into the barely alive Alyssa's throat.

Letting out one final scream, her throat is torn out and she falls to the ground, blood pouring from her shoulder, eye sockets and throat.

Blaire turns to you and you almost see recognition from your former friend before she turns back to her kill, letting out a triumphant cry.

You snap out of your daze, turn and run right into the warehouse and into Mark and Tyler's waiting arms before throwing up then collapsing, completely blacking out.
