Realistic or Modern The Running Dead

Tasteless

Boink Bean


In Seattle, Washington, Everything seemed like a normal day.. Until hell broke loose. An AC-130 Spectre flew over the city with amazing speed, only to tilt and crash into the Space Needle. A loud explosion shook the city to its core as the gunship exploded as it hit the ground below. Screaming broke out as what looked to be people began to attack. Their eyes red and blood-shot. Their teeth sharpened to a point and their saliva like acid once it touched the skin.



The city began to crumble as people were being slaughtered and turned into the creatures that slaughtered them, this made no sense! where did these beasts come from?



The Us military was creating these beasts from human corpses to create the most 'elite' weapon. Once they noticed it was impossible to train the dead, they were shipping them on the AC-130 Spectre to be dropped far in the mountains where they would be taken by the scientists and evaluated until further notice. Yet one had escaped while on the Gunship, and attacked the pilot. Causing the aircraft to plummet and twist, that's when the heavily guarded gunship crashed into the space needle, then into the ground. The leaving beasts were released into the streets in which they attack the people who were trying to help the injured people. Turns out these 'weapons' were far more advanced then any had thought.



The scientists who had created the 'weapons' were far more deceiving, they were bent on destroying the government. Yet they never knew how far it would actually go. They laced the beasts with chemicals and bacteria to make the crave flesh to eat, they altered the minds who they could walk, crawl, and sprint. They felt no pain. They removed their memory cortex to prevent any old memories resurfacing. They injected the beasts with a toxin they secrete in their saliva. They mutated the dead corpses and made them target healthy hosts, to feed upon and turn into one of them.



It has been five years since the outbreak.. The world itself as fallen victim to these unstoppable beasts. Barely over fifty people are actually people in this world now, and there is no government, no scientists, no


nothing

to save us.

"They say that god is full of mysteries




Sometimes I wonder if you tell him that you're missing me




'Cause I miss you every day




Like they took summer away




Like they took color away




And this grey




Needs to get the hell away from me




And I'm jealous of the angels




'Cause they see you every day




And I see you when I'm dreaming




But it doesn't feel the same"



Her soft words echoed as if the two of them were locked inside a massive cave, instead the two were laying in the beautiful meadow of daisies, like the ones that they used to lay in... before.. He.. His eyes melted to ice that covers her injured heart, her pale skin slowly brightens as he glides his hand over her cheek. Tears well in her beautiful eyes.. "Fabian.. Why.. Why did he-" His eyes held her gaze, as a cold tear slides down her rosy cheek. He shakes his head, his black hair spiked back like he used to have it, his face lightly stubble like the day she last saw him, he hadn't changed a bit. "He has his reasons, Jay." She felt her blood begin to boil in anger and confusion. "Why wont he tell me? " Fabian looked off toward the dark clouds rolling in. "It will all make sense.. in time." He then stood, She struggled but felt planted to the ground. "You cant do this! Fabian! Don't leave me!! Please!" Tears rolled down her cheeks.



A sudden hand shaking her, jolted her back to the haunted reality she was in. Ethan stared down at her, "

God dammit, Jay.

" He growled under his breath. "

Can you go one night without screaming his name

?" He grunted as he slowly righted himself onto his feet, instead of kneeling over the cot she had been sleeping on. Jay carefully sat up, as she dried the tears that still dripped from her eyes. ".

.Sorry, Ethan.

." She muttered, Sheena laid beside Jay, Intently listening to their conversation but still watched the door as she usually did.


"


We have to get moving again, Jay

." He spoke with authority over her, Yet she learned to accept it. She began to dress herself in her worn tank top, a leather jacket, her worn converse, and black skinny jeans. Ethan dressed in hi leather jacket, jean, and converse as well. The two almost matched.


Jay ran her fingers over the caramel colored wood of her bow. Her fingers grazed the carved words, '


F+J'

in the middle of a heart. "

Lets go

." Ethan barked. Jay followed him out the door of the old, run down apartment. Old blood smeared on the hallway walls in words like

"Help us." "Send us food, not bullets" "No one will ever escape the beast."

Jay looked to Ethan, Sheena following them cautiously down the hall. "

Ethan.. Where are we going

?" He had be avoiding this question for days on end. The handsome Italian hesitated, "

Safety.

" Jay was taken "

What? But you said-

" Ethan glared at her "

I know what i said, But i cant risk losing you.

" Jay looked away, bashfully. "

I don't need you to be so protective Ethan, i can do it..

" He rolled his brown eyes, "

To bad

." They remained silent as they slowly began to find their way out of the apartment complex.

Zack had been living in his apartment for 5 years now. He had been forced to kill his girlfriend, as she was going to bit him, he had no choice.


He had been forced to leave his apartment as he had soon finished all of his supplies. Before Zack left, he carefully looked out of the window, looking down onto the street. There was only 1 or 2 of those things on the road. He was probably able to take them out. He filled his back pack with all of the resources he would need. The weapons he took with was a small kitchen knife, baseball bat and a small pistol his father gave him. Not much, but it can bash a few heads in.


Zack carefully opened the door and straight in his view he saw his neighbor, John limping up to him. Zack ran up to him, and swung the baseball bat into his head, blood squirting everywhere, on his clothes and the wall. He wiped off the blood on his face and to his surprise, he heard footsteps and distant talking behind him. He fiddled, panicking, for his gun in his pocket. He aimed his gun to where the sounds were coming from. Since there was talking, he presumed that they were humans/survivors. He shouted, "Hey, Stay back! I've got a gun!"

Ethan immediately grabbed Jay as she rounded the corner. He wrapped his arm around her to prevent her from going any farther after hearing the other man's warning. He shoved her behind him, and she let out a soft cry of shock as Ethan aimed his pistol at the stranger. His dark eyes were locked on Zack, His finger already over the trigger, encase he got any ideas. Jay stood behind her 'protector' Clearly flushed and shocked. She cautiously reached for her gun as well, Still shaky from Ethan's powerful shove.


"
I would suggest you lower you aim, kid." Ethan's voice was laced with warning.. Jay stood beside him, Despite the cuts and dry blood that flawed her complexion, She still looked beautiful. Her long hair down, flowing over her shoulders freely. Ethan on the other hand looked more then dangerous. The blood that covered his face made him look like a murderer he was. "We wont hurt you-" Jay's voice was soft, and smooth like honey, But Ethan's deadly glance stopped her sentence short.
 
Zack's fingers began to get really sweaty. He struggled to hold the gun straight. He looked at them both.


Inside, he was really scared, but he did good not to show it. "You bit or not?" He shouted, moving slowly closer.


Zack's gun lowered, not as threateningly.
 
Ethan held his ground stubbornly, He did not lower his gun. "I could ask you the same, Since you're the one covered in fresh blood." He growled as he stiffened up slightly. He was becoming impatient already. Jay swallowed hard, was Ethan gonna kill this man too? Did he feel threatened by other men? Was he doing it for Jay? To protect her? or was he craving blood like those monsters that roamed the area around them.


Ethan held his glare as he ran his finger over the trigger in silence, When it looked as if he really would put a bullet in this young man's skull. He pulled his gun back. He shifted his finger off the trigger. Jay sighed softly, the thought of killing another innocent made her sick. Ethan watched Zack carefully.

Count Dracula and his family and friends stood on the street when Count Dracula heard someone talking. Me: "Wait here, I think there are other survivors..." He went up and found Zack, Ethan and Jay. Mihnea and Toma waited a while and then entered the house to search a lift. 
Count Dracula stared at them. Me: "I didn't know there were other survivors..."
 
Jay quickly aimed her pistol at Count Dracula. "You, Don't come any closer." Ethan drew his pistol again. Aiming for Zack, Encase he thought this would be the perfect time to attack them. Jay was stiff, clearly a rookie with a gun. Ethan looked calmer then she, Making him more of a deadly threat.


Jay carefully glance to Ethan, he did not look at her. He looked as if frozen. Despite his cruel doings, despite his murderous past, She still forgave him and would put no one above him. The two could never be more then they are right now, but that never stopped her from yearning to protect and serve him.



"
Despite 85% of this world being taken over by those.. things, There is still 15% of the human population. There is bound to be survivors." Jay muttered softly, Still holding the gun tightly.
 
@Enchanted Dreams Count Dracula was still staring at them. Me: "What are you doing? Do I look like a vampyre?" Mihnea and Toma found a lift and joined the others. Mihnea: "Why are you aiming at him? He's a survivor. Not a vampire."
 
Zack nodded at the man with a gun, accepting his leadership.


As he heard the new man's voice, Zack also aimed his gun at him and said, "What does this world have too do with vampires?"


As the other people came in, Zack moved his aim from Count Dracula and his friends


@Enchanted Dreams


@CountDracula


(If you guys watch The Walking Dead, I'm gonna be like Daryl, but younger)
 
@Flipperdoo2003 @Enchanted Dreams Me: "We have to kill them." Mihnea and Toma took a look at Zack, Jay and Ethan. Mihnea: "What are your names? I think it's best if we work together despite against each other."
 
"I don't think names entirely matter right now..." He muttered, tightening his aim at Count Dracula.


His remark was aggressive in Zack's point of view.


Zack glanced back at the people behind him, motioning his hand for them to move forward, to where he was.


@Enchanted Dreams


@CountDracula
 
Jay gritted her teeth, and stiffened slightly. "How do we know if you 'survivors' aren't bitten? or muggers?" She snapped. Ethan glared at the group. the weapons that laced his body, ranging from the throwing knives strapped to his belt, to an ak-12 strapped his back.


Ethan looked down at Jay, Sheena bared her fangs aggressively, feeling then tension in the air. The fur along her spine began to raise. She growled as she stood beside Jay, the blue collar around her neck dangled with her dog tags. Jay looked to Ethan as he knelt beside the fearful yet protective boxer mutt. He stroked her fur down and she stared at the strangers cautiously. Jay looked back to the group as Ethan calmed the dog.
 
@Flipperdoo2003 Me: "They do matter. Or do you prefer being called "stranger"?"


@Enchanted Dreams Count Dracula sighed. Me: "If we had been bitten, we'd be vampyres by now. - I have a friend who can be really helpful in our situation. He knows everything about supernatural creatures." Count Dracula could hear a slight "meow" in the hallway before Sunny came in and jumped on Toma's lap. Toma laughed.
 
Zack scowled, "Do you even know whats happening out there?!" He shouted, his anger rising.


He looked back again, not sure what to do now.
 
@Flipperdoo2003 Me: "I know what's happening out there. But why are you angry at me? If we had been bitten, we'd have signs. We'd either be vampyres or have at least bite marks." Mihnea: "Dad's right." Mihnea pointed at Toma. Mihnea: "Look at him. Does a vampyre look like this? A little, sick boy in a wheelchair?"
 
Sheena growled softly, despite Ethan stroking her. Jay glanced to Toma, then to Zack and Ethan. She carefully lowered her gun. She looked to Sheena as she stood up and walked to Jay. She gently petted the mutt.


Jay looked to Zack, "
I am sure they do know, and yelling will only attract those things here." She growled under her breath. Ethan glanced around. "We can't stay here, friend or stranger. We have to go." Ethan muttered as he looked to Jay. She nodded and the pair began to make the way for the fire exit. Down the halls a bit, groaning and scratching was becoming louder. Sheena trotted after Jay.
 
@Enchanted Dreams Abraham also joined. The four of them followed Jay and Ethan. Me: "That's the friend I meant. He basically knows everything about supernatural creatures, and he's working on an antidote and a vaccine at the moment." Abraham nodded. Abraham: "That's right, and I think I might be successful. I've tried the vaccine on Vlad, and he at least seems to be immune against their saliva..." Toma suddenly fainted. Me: "TOMA!" Count Dracula got him out of his wheelchair and immediately started giving CPR.
 
Zack looked back at the guy in the wheelchair. "Listen, There's no time for that!" He half-shouted.


He ran back and gripped the wheelchairs handles furiously and started running/jogging with the chair to the fire exit


"Dude, Open the door!" Zack looked behind him and saw a few zombies, followed by more. "Hurry!"


(I gtg, so one of you can control me)
 
Ethan looked back at the scream of a name, and the sudden CPR. Ethan noticed the shadows approaching on the walls. "God dammit!" he grunted in annoyance as he drew his gun. One of those hell-ridden creatures pushed itself toward them on all fours. One shot, the creature keeled over dead, the grunts, growls, and almost howls erupted. Jay drew her gun shakily. "E-ethan?" She whimpered, He stood beside her. "They aren't people, Jay. They can't feel, or think for themselves anymore, they want to kill us. So kill them.." A group of four or five of the monsters rushed forward, some running, others crawling on all fours like animals. Ethan and Jay stood in front of the group as they began to shoot down the beasts.
 
Me: "I can't just let my boy die!" Mihnea ran out of the house and came back with an AED a few minutes later, while Abraham helped shooting the monsters. Count Dracula's father came with him. Mihnea turned on the AED and did everything as said. AED: "Press button to supply shock." Mihnea pressed a button, waited for a second and then felt Toma's pulse. Mihnea: "Nothing... dammit..." Count Dracula's father continued giving CPR. 
@Enchanted Dreams (I'm waiting for a reply)


Mihnea waited for two minutes and then gave Toma a second shock. Toma finally began to breathe again. Count Dracula put him on his oxygen mask and put him back to his wheelchair.
 
Ethan shot another monster; "Lets go!" he shouted, once the young-boy started to breath again. Jay stumbled back, as more of the creatures were coming. Ethan grabbed her and shoved through the fire exit. Stairs. Fuck. He thought, since there was a kid in a wheel chair. "Someone has to carry 'toma'." He barked the order, and didn't wait for a reply as he loaded his pistol again. Jay did the same following his movements almost exactly. She looked up at Zack, and met his gaze. Her beautiful blue eyes gleamed, before she turned back to Ethan.


Jay and Ethan positions themselves behind the group to dispose of the following creatures.
 
Me: "I'll take him." Count Dracula took Toma in his arm and carried him down the stairs. Mihnea followed them with the wheelchair, and the others carried the other stuff like the AED. Downstairs, Toma slowly opened his eyes. Count Dracula cried tears of joy when he saw this, knowing his little boy was okay.
 
Ethan slowly stepped after them, shooting the beasts that were launching for the group, frothing at the mouth, at the scent of their mortal flesh. Jay continued to shoot along side Ethan, she had always been naturally clumsy. She turned to run with the rest of the group, and tripped over her own feet. She let out a cry as she twisted her ankle, and fell down the metal stairs, landing at the bottom with a thud. Ethan held his stomach drop. "Jay!" Ethan yelled, he shot one of the beasts before running down the stairs. He knelt beside her, A large cut above her right eye, blood dripping down her face. Her beautiful eyes fluttered with life, Ethan's heart lightened that she was alright. He slung her arm around him. She leaned on him weakly..


Ethan looked up at Zack. "
Shut the door!! Then slide the Ax between the handles to prevent them from getting out." He barked at the younger man.
