Escape The Dead

Chapter 13- Amputation

"Ok, I only have one question. Does anyone know how to do an amputation?" Gina asked.

"You don't know how, and yet it was your idea!" Joe yelled.

"I only know about the chopping part, but I don't know what to do after that."

"Will you guys stop it! Jack is clearly dying here!" Nicole pointed.

"Hey." Jack waved.

"I'll do it, but I'm gonna need Gina's help," Jillian said.

"You know how to amputate?" Gina and Joe asked in unison.

"My parents are doctors and I always wanted to be one." Jillian shrugged.

"Ok then, tell us what to do," Nicole said.

"We're gonna need a sharp knife and some alcohol."

"There's some liquor in my satchel." Gina grabbed the alcohol from her satchel and kneeled next to Jack with Jillian.

"And I still have the kitchen knife from the cafeteria," Joe hold out his knife.

"Good. Jack take off your jacket."

Jack took off his black jacket. Jillian took off her belt, placed her rapier down on the floor and tightened the belt around Jack's arm with her teeth.

"Everyone hold his legs and arms." Jillian hold down Jack's arms as Nicole and Joe hold down his legs.

"Are you sure you know what you're doing?" Gina asked looking a bit scared.

"Yes, I know what to do, Gina." Jillian took the kitchen knife from Joe and disinfected it with alcohol.

Jillian made a fireplace and threw Gina's sword into it.

"What are you doing?" Gina asked.

"We need something hot to burn his veins shut," Jillian explained as she handed the knife to Gina. "By the way, you're cutting his arm off."

"What!?"

"You're stronger than me. And you better hurry before he turns."

Jack whimpered as Gina placed the blade near his shoulder to chop of his arm.

"Gina, I need to tell you something."

"Yeah, Jack?"

"I-I actually like you."

"What?" Gina looked into his eyes.

"I love you. If I don't make it, I want you to know how I feel."

"Jack, stop talking gibberish. Your gonna be ok. And... I'll answer your confession after you're saved." Gina placed a stick in Jack's mouth. "Bite this."

Jack nodded and muffled. "Do it."

Jack was breathing faster as Gina sink the knife in his arm. The muffled scream was awful. Gina cut deeper and blood was leaking. Jack struggled and everyone hold down his legs and arm. Joe looked away from Jack's arm and Nicole felt like she was gonna puke. Gina looked pale and sweat formed on her forehead. Jack's eyes was nailed onto Gina as tears formed. Gina cut deeper and deeper until it hit something hard that made Jack grunt, closing his eyes as tears fell down his cheek. Gina lift up the knife high in the air.

"I'm sorry." Gina gasped as she chucked the knife down on Jack's arm with great force.

Everyone heard a loud cracking noise and the stick fell from his mouth. Jack screamed in agony before he passed out. When the arm was off, Jillian ran to grab Gina's sword that was cooking in the makshift fireplace. Jillian placed the burning hot sword against Jack, burning his wound shut. Jack losing his arm was a really big thing. Without that arm, he's going to have a hard time surviving in this zombie world. The floor was covered in Jack's blood. Gina looked down to her shirt, seeing it was stained in blood, in Jack's blood.

"W-will he be alright?" Gina turned to Jillian who seems a bit pale. "Jill?"

Jillian shook her head. "S-sorry, what?"

Gina repeated her question. "Will he be alright?"

"I hope so," Jillian exhaled.

"What are we going now?" Joe asked.

"We should get Jack to a safe place." Gina carried Jack on her back.

"Are you ok carrying Jack. Your wound will open more. I could carry him," Joe said.

"It's ok. Thanks Joe." Gina smiled.

Everyone followed Gina. They encountered some zombies on the way out but they took care of them. The sun was already setting and they know how dangerous it gets at night. They walked through the woods. Gina saw some kind of light. They walked closer and it was a house on the edge of the woods. They walked to the front door facing the rode. Nicole knocked on the door and it opened.

"ZOIE!" Everyone said surprised.

They stared at the brown wavy hair tied to a ponytail girl with dark brown eyes. She wore a purple jacket and a pink shirt with black jeans and brown uggs. She was clearly surprised as they are. Nicole and Jillian ran to hug her.

"I thought you turned to one of those things," Zoie said.

"That's what we thought," Gina said.

"What's going on Zoie." Another voice came from in the house.

"Peyton, come look!" Zoie yelled. "You guys should come in."

Everyone walked in through the door to be greeted with another girl. She has long blonde hair and light blue eyes. She's wearing a green jersey with blue jeans and black sneakers.

"Oh my god! Nicole! Jill! So glad to see you." She ran and gave them a hug.

"It's so good to see you too," Nicole said.

"By the way, can Jack use one of the rooms?" Gina interrupted their reunion. She was getting tired of caring Jack as her wound was still healing.

"Yeah, sure, the rooms are upstairs. This isn't our house so feel free." Peyton pointed up the stairs.

"Thanks," Gina carried Jack up the stairs.

"What happened to Jack? He looks kind of pale," Zoie asked.

"Long story," Joe said.

They followed Peyton and Zoie to the kitchen.

"You guys must be hungry," Peyton placed down a plate full of sandwiches. "By the way nice weapons." Peyton noticed all the weapons they carried.

"Thanks," Jillian placed a hand on her rapier.

"So? How did you guys survive?" Gina asked coming through the door.

"Where's Jack?" Joe asked.

"He's upstairs, in the room down the hall."

"I'll go watch him." Joe walked towards Gina and whispered, "In case he turns." Joe walked up the stairs.

****************************
They found 2 more living friends and let's just hope that Jack doesn't turn to a zombie. Also typing this chapter kind of made me sick but everything turned out fine.
