"Come on Y/n." Louis encouraged, I hadn't noticed I was a good few feet behind the others.

"Sorry," I rushed to their side only to be stopped by the oldest of the group, Bill.

"Hold on." He reached down, dipping his fingers in the goo that was on a nearby zombie. He rubbed his fingers together, "Ain't seen anything like this before." He brought his hand into the light of his gun to examine the substance closer.

"Jesus, don't let that stop you from smearing it all over yourself." Francis commented, Bill furrowed his eyebrows and turned to him.

"They're changing!" He wiped his hand on Francis' vest. I gave Louis a knowing glance, you never mess with Francis' vest.

Francis smacked Bill's hand away, "Ah damnit Bill! Ugh it stinks!" Louis chuckled at this, which earned him a glare.

"You hear that?" I asked, it was crying and sounded female. We all looked to a room that we were walking past. the door was closed but when we got closer the crying got louder.

"Someone's still alive." Zoey, the only other girl in our group, stepped closer to the door with Bill. The thought that there might be another girl above filled me with excitement, I rushed over to see what was happening.

They opened it and Zoey turned on her flashlight while Bill turned his off.

"Over there." Bill creeped into the room. I peaked over Zoey's shoulder to see what they saw.

"Hello? Hello? Hey it's OK. We're gonna-" Lighting flashed behind us, Louis and Francis ran to the ally to fend off any infected coming our way.

"Lights off!" Bill demanded, pushing Zoey's pistols down. They examined the crying girl. "That's a wi-" Louis yelled something behind us, running around the corner.

"They're coming!" He rushed into the room, shining the light at the girl weeping on the floor. She looked at him and screamed, eyes glowing with hatred.

"Run like hell!" Bill pulled Zoey to her feet, pushing us both out of the room. He shot at her a few times, then slammed the door shut. She pounded against the door, arm bursting through. Louis screamed and shot her a series of bullets into the room. I turned my back to him to help the others. Shoving a few zombies back.

"Do you like that?!" Louis yelled at the screaming girl.

"Stick together!" Francis instructed, shooting the zombies running at us with his shotgun.

There was coughing behind us, A long rope like tongue shot out and wrapped Bill up. He screamed for help, chocking slightly. Francis spun on his heel, "Hang on!" He shot the thing a few times before it burst into smoke. Bill fell to the floor coughing.

"You're alright bill, let's get you back on your feet." I helped him to his feet while Francis shot two infected running at us.

"Merry Christmas!" He exclaimed with a grin. Zoey and Louis yelled at us to hurry up.

"Fire in the hole!" Zoey throws a pipe bomb down the ally, the zombies quickly change their direction to chase it, kicking and swiping at it. The bomb ticked down, Francis grabbed me and pulled us to the floor, positioning himself in between the bomb and I. BOOM!

A bright light shone on us, We squinted up at the light. "Helicopter!" Louis yells, running after it. "Hey! We're over here! We're not infected!" Francis pulled me to my feet and I chased after Louis.

"Damnit Louis, we can't split up." I reminded, pulling something out of my pocket and shaking it. I took the cover off, wheezing while lifting it to my lips. A horrifying scream sounded in the air. "What the hell-" I looked up to the buildings spotting something. I was about to point it out when it leaped off, pinning me to the floor.

The inhaler rolled out of my hand. It's sharp nails teared at my flesh, blood soaking my shirt. "Get it off get it off!" I caught the groups attention, Zoey ran to me and threw herself at the thing, it stumbled off of me and she opened fire, jumping over me. Louis delivered a head shot that caused it to fall onto a blinking car, the alarm blared.

"Oh this is gonna get bad." Bill stated, forcing me to my feet, "You'll be alright kid, we'll find you some first aid alright?" I nodded, he picked up my inhaler and used his shirt to wipe it off. "Here." I thanked him and took a puff before the hoard could arrive. the shadows of the infected appeared on the buildings around us. We snuck around some cars, guns at the ready. There were hundreds of them, coming from all around us.

"It's not looking good!" We gathered in a circle, backs to each other so we could make sure none of them got to us. "Reloading!'

The waves of infected kept coming, through windows and over fences. "Stay positive guys! We will be alright!" Louis attempted to lift our spirits.

"I hate how optimistic you are!" Francis stopped shooting and stared at the infected running at us. "What the hell was at?"

"Francis shoot your damn g-" a loud roar cut me off. A car flew towards us, taking out a few infected and just nearly missed Zoey. Her and Bill looked in the direction that the car came from.

"What the hell is that?!" He asked again.

"I don't think this is a fair fight!" I screamed. "That's a big ass thing!"

"Was it ever?" Zoey shot back.

"Run or shoot?" Louis asked, taking a few steps back. "Run or shoot?!"

"Both!" Bill grabbed Zoey and pulled her behind him, shooting at the giant zombie. Francis turned quickly, colliding with me.

His elbow hit my torn up stomach, "Ow!" I sucked a breath through my teeth.

"Shit, can you run?" I shrugged in response. He put an arm around me, using his left hand to shoot while looking over his shoulder.

"Get to the roof!" Louis pointed at a ladder, Francis let go of me.

"Go, go, go!" He yelled at us. Louis grabbed the ladder and began climbing, followed by Zoey. "Come on, come on!" The giant thing ran around the corner and he let out a series of bullets into it.

Bill pushed me towards the ladder. "No!" I shot at the zombie who just hit Francis into a wall.

"Y/n go please! I got it!" I looked Bill in the eyes before sighing and climbing the ladder.

I made it to the first platform, looking back down. The thing, well the tank was about to smash Francis. Bill distracted it by shooting many bullets in its head. It's fist hurdled at Bill, who dodged it just in time.

A giant piece of rubble was thrown at platform I was on, Louis pulled me onto the stairs and Francis ducked down on the ladder. Zoey shot a few infected, trying to protect Bill. "Go! I'll hold them off!"

Bill got onto the stairs as the tank jumped at them, "Zoey! Go I got this," I rushed her up the fire escape. If one of us were going to go down, it shouldn't be one of the healthy ones. I used my pistols to shoot the tank, just trying to hold him off long enough for Bill and Francis to get to the roof. Francis gets on the roof, Louis grabs Bill to pull him up. The fire escape gives way under the tanks weight, nearly taking me to the ground far below with it. My back hit the railing and one of my pistols fell out of my hand.

Francis leaned over the edge of the roof, "Francis!" I screamed, jumping as the platform beneath my feet fell. He reached out and grabbed my arm before I could fall. I hung there for a second before he pulled me up. Louis helped me onto the roof, I stumbled onto the floor. "What the hell was that?" Francis put a hand on my back as I caught my breath.

"We made it, I can't believe we made it." Louis panted while grinning.

"Son, we just crossed the street." Bill pauses while he looks for his lighter, he found it and lit his cigarette. "Let's not throw a party til we are out of the city."
