Chapter 25- Training, Training and More Training

"Wow," was all Jillian could say.

"That was my reaction when I first entered the room." Gina said.

"Go ahead. Pick any weapons you want." Jack announced.

Joe immediately ran to the guns section and grabbed the Fn F2000 auto rifle off the shelf.

"Man these guns are sick!" Joe was like bouncing with joy.

Nicole walked over and grabbed two uzi  off the shelf. Jillian scanned through the shelves for a gun she wants. Zoie grabbed the Ak47 as Peyton grabbed a L115A3 sniper rifle. Jillian's eyes finally landed on a certain gun she wanted. She reached for the black Mp5 machine gun.

"A machine gun?" Gina crossed her arms.

"What!? I always wanted to try using one of these."

"Ok, any melee weapons you want?" Gina asked.

"I could use a new rapier." The rapier Jillian has was getting rusty with rotten blood.

Joe grabbed a long sword off the melee shelf. Zoie grabbed the crescent blade. Peyton went for the scimitar as Jillian looked for a perfect rapier. Nicole on the other hand, didn't like any of the melee weapons. But what caught her eye was the weapon that's laid against the wall next to the melee shelves. The weapon is a scythe that has a long black bar and a black curved blade.

"How's the weapon picking," Tyler jumped in the room.

"So far so good," Jack said as he tossed a couple of belts on to the centered table.

"Hey, what's this weapon," Nicole asked as she pointed to the scythe.

"That weapon? That's a scythe it belongs to Matt. That's a really hard weapon to get, you know? We only have one, they are really rare and really hard to use. The only person I met who mastered that weapon was Matt." Tyler crossed his arms.

"Everyone almost done?" Johnny asked walking in with Matt following behind.

"Speak of the devil." Tyler smiled.

Nicole quickly ran up to Matt. He jumped back being startled by the younger girl.

"Teach me how to use that weapon," Nicole pointed to the black scythe.

"That weapon?" Matt walked over to scythe, holding the center of the bar he lift it up. Matt started to spin the scythe above his head with one head, then using two hands to spin as he brought it down in front. Bringing it to the side with his left hand, spinning it behind as he switched hands bring it to the right. As he finished showing off, he slammed the scythe down next to him as if he owns it. "It's been a while since I used this thing," Matt sighed with a smile of satisfaction. Everyone stared at him with amazement also dumbfounded. "What?" Matt asked.

"That... was... awesome!!" Jack exclaimed.

"It was nothing," Matt waved.

"You've got to teach me how to use that," Nicole plead.

"But doesn't it belong to Matt?" Zoie asked.

"It's fine, I use a long dagger more often than this scythe."

"Says the one who treats it like your baby," Johnny scoffed.

Matt send a glare towards him. "Are you sure you want to use this weapon?" Matt asked. "I mean this weapon is really hard to use. It requires a lot of spinning like I just did. And one wrong move and you might slice your leg off. Are you sure you're able use this weapon?"

"Yes, I am sure, I want to use that weapon. Now teach me," Nicole beamed.

"Alright, don't say I didn't warn ya." Matt handed the black scythe to Nicole.

Everyone wore their belts placing the weapons on. Gina and Jack started teaching hand to hand combat to them like how Tyler, Matt and Johnny taught them. Teaching them karate, judo, aikido and kung-fu can sharpen up their reflects and their senses. After an hour on hand to hand combat, they switched to learning how to use your melee weapons. Nicole was so hyped about using the black scythe. Jillian already know how to use the rapier so she didn't need much training on that but she still insist on practicing. Jack was teaching Joe on how to use fast and swift slashes. Tyler's teaching Zoie on the crescent blade. Unlike the scythe the crescent blade doesn't need that much spinning to use it, its more like a bo staff. Gina was teaching Peyton how to use the scimitar. Matt was teaching Nicole. Johnny had gone back to help Dr. Adam with packing up his research papers.

"You need to swing harder," Matt said. "And stand up straighter."

"I got it," Nicole had a hard time balancing the the weapon since only end had a huge curved metal blade on it.

"You are way too slow!" Matt yelled.

"Well I'm sorry, this thing is heavy!" Nicole yelled back.

"Stop whining, I have to teach you every skill and technique on how to use this scythe ta'night."

"Ta'night! That's impossible!"

"Who wanted to use this weapon?"

Nicole grunted as she went back to swing the scythe. After an hour had passed everyone went to train on their guns in the outside training area, but Nicole had to stay behind in order to master the scythe.

"Is it just me or does this thing feel lighter?" Nicole asked.

"That's good news. It means your body is getting use to the weight." Matt replied. "Now let's try some moves."

"There's more!?"

"Of course there's more." Matt smirked.

Everyone who were outside just finished their training. As they were heading in Nicole finally headed out to the training area. They decide to stay so they can watch Nicole. She was pretty good with the two uzis, then she switch to the black scythe on her back. When a zombie came in contact Nicole brought the curve blade around its neck chopping it's head off. When more zombies came to view, Nicole started to spin the scythe with her right hand, then sliding the blade out, swinging across, killing three zombie in the process of switching to the left hand, she turned with great speed like a tornado killing four zombies that was limping behind her. Everyone was so impressed. Nicole looked like she knows what she's doing.

"You taught her well," said Gina.

"Well, I'm am the one who mastered that death weapon after all.," Matt gloated.

Gina rolled her eyes and brought her attention back to the tablet. Nicole swung the black scythe around her torso using the curve blade killing any zombies that was close. Then spinning the scythe in one hand as a zombie walked up, she slammed the sharp pointed end of the scythe straight down, from head to toe splitting the zombie in half as the blade struck into the ground ending the training. Everyone on the outside of the training area was so impressed that they all had their mouths open, except for Matt since he expected that. What Matt didn't expect was killing all the zombies at once, Nicole only stayed in one area as they seen in the tablet, Nicole stood proud in place, not a single sweat appeared on her nor a single drop of blood. Nicole examined all the dead zombies around her. She was surprised that she did all that, and the sun hasn't even set. It felt like she had been training for hours. She pulled the curved blade of the scythe out of the ground, doing so a deep gash was formed in the dirt ground. She started to walk back to the gate were she came in from, then rustles could be heard. Nicole didn't move, only darting her eyes from side to side thinking there might be more zombies. She then turned around when footsteps could be heard. She gripped on to the scythe ready to attack. What she didn't expect to pop out from the bushes were three werewolves. Nicole's face went from confidence to fear as her expression became pale.

****************************

Oh no Nicole is all alone with those three werewolves. Exactly what will she do, will the others come to help? Fine out on the next chapter of Escape The Undead
