Leola and Ozzie vs. The World

Chapter 35

"Get up, we're here". The Captain said as he opened the my cabin door. I struggled to get up because he messed my ribs up pretty bad. The captain walked over and yanked me forward not caring much about my condition.

He walked me to top deck with a gun pointed at my back. I got a full view of the fort. Smoke was coming from Mark's ship and you could hear gunshots from meters away.

When we finally ported, I was brought to Mark's ship on top deck. What was going on there was devastating.

All the entrances to any floor below was poorly barricaded with lifeboats and furniture. Zombie arms could reach in between the cracks and they were just swinging everywhere. It looked like every pirate was on this ship. They were all shooting at any zombie that got through the barricade but it seemed to hold steady.

Everything was going as I planned but the fact that the whole group (including mom) was on they're knees with guns pointed at their heads on the zombie infested ship.

"Aw there she is!" Mark said pulling the gun away from my group. "Wanted to make sure you had a front seat!"  I was pushed towards Mark roughly. I was too slow to slow down and I ended up running into him.

He grabbed my wrist and slapped me with his pistol. I crashed into the ground next to Ozzie.

"On your knees you pathetic waste of time". Mark commanded. I got on my knees with a throbbing cheek. Now I was in a row with everyone else.

Mark made his way over and stood infront of me probably feeling all bold and stuff.

"You couldn't just go with the flow could you?" Mark started. "I'm guessing you did this for that little runt of a sister". Mark rubbed his lip as if he was trying to stay calm. "Its a good thing I sent a spies to sleep in your cabin, and it was easy to track down your mother".

"Look what you've done to this perfect community!" He screamed sounding angrier. "You murdered all of these perfect men, and for what?" "Two rats who's gonna die later on!?!"

There was silence, only the sounds of pirates shifting their guns and zombies moaning could be heard.

"They deserve to be eaten, all of them".  Jack said.

"That's a good idea little brother". Mark said with a evil grin. Mark turned back to me. "You go first since you started this mess".

Mark slapped his hand onto my neck and grabbed me hoisting me up. He kept shoving me forward closer towards the barricade. Swinging arms were only a few feet away. The only thing stopping me was my feet that kept pushing back but Mark kept pushing forward.

One zombie's arm was too close to my neck. All Mark had to do was push one more time and I'd be over with.

"Wait!" Yael screamed. "What about Jack?"

Mark stopped pushing me but he didn't let go. Mark turned to Yael slowly.

"What are you talking about?" Mark asked. I was glad Yael was able to by some time.

"Err...Jack, he was the one who brought the zombie to the fort in the first place!" Yael shouted. "It was him who pretty much destroyed the fort".

"Shut up!" Jack yelled. "I was planning on using the thing as a weapon, I didn't mean for any of this to happen!"

"Well it did!" Mark yelled towards Jack. "And what you did was pretty stupid".

"But stupidity is a weakness". Yael said firmly. Mark's eyes widened and I felt his grip loosen. Mark shook his head.

"He's not stupid". Mark stated. "H-he just made a...mistake".

"Yeah, a really stupid one". Yael added. "What makes you think he won't do something like that again, I'm sure that isn't the first time he's screwed up badly, isn't it?"
