Z Nation (10k FanFic)

Caught Red Handed

Smoke filled the air. "How could you let the tuck over heat," Addie snapped at Hector. "Hey it was either put water in the truck and die of dehydration, or not put water in the truck and live to see another day," He replied. "Enough! We have to keep moving forward, we don't want to be stuck out here after dark," Warren snapped. We walked for miles, before finally reaching a town. as we walked trough we all got an eerie feeling. as we slid down into a dried up damn we came upon a sight i never thought I'd see id see. Zombies hanging from a bridge above by nooses with the guts spewing out and hanging onto the ground. "Damn, its been awhile since something shocked me," Doc said. "This is a message, by someone who doesn't want to be misunderstood," Hector added. As we were all gawking at the hanging Z's they all suddenly began to fall. "It's go time," Warren said pulling out her machete. We fought our way through the Z's, as the last one fell Doc said, "Yea, I could have told you this was a sketchy neighborhood by the graffiti on the walls". "Hold it, stop right there!" A voice called from above. We all looked up and saw three men standing at the top of the bridge with their weapons drawn. "come back to finish us off?" one of the men called out. "Easy now, you got it all wrong," Warren said. "Let me see your hands, now!" He demanded. We all raised out hands and Warren spoke again, "We're not who you think you are". "The back's of your hands, now!" he demanded. we all flipped our hands over. "There clean," one of the younger ones said. "What are you all doing here then?" They asked. "Were just passing through trying to find our friends we were separated from," Warren spoke. They came down from the bridge. "What happened here?" I asked. "Our group settled here, plenty of space, very little Zombies, then the red hand showed up," he explained. "They tortured and killed our friends and families, and when they were done they marked them all with a red hand," he continued. "That's so horrible," Addie replied. "We plan of finding them and their bastard leader, El Scorpion, and doing the same thing to them that they did to our people," The younger man said spitting on the ground. Warren glanced at Hector who spoke, "How do you know their leader is El Scorpion?" "They say he's got a tattoo of some kid on this arm," he said. we all got goose bumps. 

~Murphy~ 

"How is the supply stock?" Murphy asked. "We've reached half our our goal this morning and we have more coming in every hour," his right hand mad replied. "and how's the Zombie moat coming along?" he asked. "We fixed the hole in the fence this morning sir," He replied. "Good, It is looking a little thin however, get some more Zombies in there will ya," Murphy demanded. "Yes, Sir." He said writing it down on his list. "Mr. Murphy Sir, the outsiders are getting restless, they said they'll no longer  take no for an answer," one of his guards said. "Hmm," Murphy grumbled under his breath has he stormed into Dr. Merch's lab. "How is that Vaccine coming along? My people are getting restless," he demanded. "It should be ready within 48 hours," She replied coldly. "And you're making mass quantities like a said right," He asked. "Yes, 10,000 dose just like you said, until then, you'll need a booster shot we need a lot more blood," she said stabbing Murphy with a syringe. "Mmm," he grunted giving Dr. Merch a death glare. He pulled his sleeve back down and swiftly walked out of the room leaving only Dr. Merch and 10k in the room. Before 10k could follow Dr. Merch turned and stabbed 10k in the neck with another syringe. 10k hit the floor and began to convulse with foam coming out of his mouth.

~Gang~

"Why did the red hand come after you?" Warren asked. "Who know's there crazy, they go after anyone they think is a threat to them," the man replied. Just then a barrage of bullets, bricks, and bottle bombs came flying over the side of the damn. "Come on this way!" The man yelled. One of the boys was hit in the face killing him instantly. Then a bullet struck me in the shoulder. "Ahh" I screamed. "Angel!" Doc yelled. Addie and Doc got me to my feet and dragged me into an nearby building. Sun Mei barricaded the door as Addie and Doc laid me on an empty table. Hector, Warren, and the other two men ran inside an adjacent building and locked themselves inside. Sun Mei examined the bullet wound on my shoulder carefully as a moan and ground in pain. "It doesn't look like it hit any vital organ's, but it will have to come out. If not the infection will kill her," she said. It hurt so bad I shook my head no every time she spoke, but I could feel myself fading in and out.
