Locked In [COMPLETED]

the roof

Samantha's POV

   The shrieks only got closer as we approached the roof door. We had 3 more flights of stairs to go. We took double steps to go faster, but instead I fell to the floor, my chin hit the step and I bit through my lip. Blood oozed down my chin from my busted lip. Carl yelled something to me, I just didn't hear what he said. I just nodded, got up and started to run. We got to the top floor. I took the second that we stopped to wipe the blood that trailed down my chin and neck. Carl walked up to the door first.

   "It's locked with a padlock!" He yelled.

  I quickly ran up to the door and drew my gun from my Jean's waistband. When aimed the gun at the lock Carl randomly tucked a piece of hair behind my ear. I could feel the heat rushing to my cheeks. I quickly snapped out of my trance and pulled the trigger.
    The lock snapped and feel to the floor with a loud clatter. The chains that held the door shut slid out of the door frame. Before we were going to go out there we all gathered and went over all the possibilities of the zombies or oil demons on the roof. We all agreed to the plan. Just get to the helecopter pad and get in the helecopter.

   "3, 2, 1!" I yelled as Carl kicked the door down. We all darted out.

    The roof was deserted.

   We started to walk up to the giant helecopter that was perching on the launch pad.
  
    "Stop what you're doing." A voice called from behind us.

   We all turned around to see Dr. McArthur. He was in critical condition. He had his shotgun pointed at me.

   "I will let you go. If I can kill Samantha." He said. A huge smug grin lined his lips.
    "You did all of this. You killed my wife to be. You destroyed our only blueprint to save the human race! You cant leave! The city is crawling with the undead. You'll be better off dead, thats what I'm gonna do. I'm going to kill all of you. Even the traitor to this operation!! So.. prepare to die."

   He cocked his gun. Everything went slow motion. My life was about to end, Carl glanced at me and then slowly pulled the gun from his pocket. He silently loaded it while Chris rambled on like a crazy retard. He drew it quicker than I thought and he pulled the trigger.

  BLAM!!

   Chris stopped and gasped. He looked down to his stomach and fell to his knees.
    I looked down to see there was no blood soaking through my shirt. We scrambled up the launch pad stairs.
    A shot rang out, I screamed and fell to the ground. My body arched and convulsed like I was having a seizure. I felt my eyes roll into the back of my head and my body twitched and thrashed as the electricity burned my body. My clothes caught fire, Carl ran over to me and frantically beat the flames off of me. A smell of singed hair burned my sinuses. My body started to settle as the electricity went away. I felt weaker than before I got shot. Carl picked me up and curled me into his chest. I let out a pathetic whimper as he tucked a piece of hair behind my ear and kissed my forehead.
    Chris staggered to his feet and pointed the launcher at me again.

  POP!

  A gun was fired. I opened my eyes to see see who was shot. All I saw was Dr. Kensworth with her pistol still aimed at Chris. He lying motionless with a river of blood trailing g from his body, Carl was turning on his heels and scrambling up the stairs. We approached the chopper, he slid the door open on the back. He shifted me into the seat in the back. I started to drift off into a painful slumber.
   I forced my eyes to stay open just to see us take off. The motor hummed to life, I could feel it lift off the ground and move forward. I felt so light headed... I drifted off to sleep after I heard Carl say,
 
   "We're safe!"

   I must have been asleep for about 3 hours when all of a sudden something felt wrong. I opened my eyes, Carl was yelling and D. Kensworth was screaming while holding Lizzy into her chest. Carl was fiddling with the buttons in the cockpit. We started spinning. I looked out the window and saw the world below us spinning and getting closer as we went down. The helecopters back end was smashed off. From a tree. The wind sucked me from my seat. I flew to the back and held onto a seatbelt as I swung out of control.

   "CARL!!!" I screamed.

    He looked back and panicked he threw himself back to me. I couldn't hold on any longer.

    "Carl! Get the girls to safety! Use your parachutes!" I screamed

   Everything went blurry. I gave Carl a look of true love.

    "I love you."
