[Skunk_Giant]

Uh... Assault rifles.

[vallorn]

ah. thats something at least. the guards will find it hard to use those in such a cramped space

[Sir_Luke]

You guys are going to get me killed...

[Skunk_Giant]

Sorry for the wait, guys. I was planning on doing something this morning, but I'm not in a great writing mood. In fact, I'm not in a great mood at all...
The depressing last days of a vacation.

[Sir_Luke]

I hope you feel better Skunk.

[Skunk_Giant]

The group were escorted quietly to the armored car by soldiers with assault rifles, handcuffs now adding to their look.
Adder, Vall and David sat in the middle row of seats, while the others took their seats in the very back.
As the car started up, Dennis spoke something through a radio about having the prisoners while the soldier in the passenger seat kept an eye on the heroes.

As the car sped down a long dirt road, the group through themselves into action. Vallorn, sitting behind the soldier, threw himself forward having previously used his handcuffs to cut through the seat-belt like piece of material that kept him pushed against his seat.
He pushed his arms up and over the passenger's seat, but not before the soldier saw what was happening. The soldier pulled his arms up and shoved his fingers around his throat, blocking the chains from reaching his skin. Vall just pulled tighter, with Pete, who sat directly behind him, pulled him back, helping him choke the soldier.
Meanwhile, Adder, who was in the middle seat, looked around and smacked Dennis in the face with his forehead. Dennis swerved the car, throwing them onto a large hill. The soldier, still choking, accidentally pulled the trigger, firing through the windshield and windows. With the new angle, Vallorn was able to finish his job on the soldier, and help Adder with Dennis. Dennis reached for the assault rifle of the dead soldier, his hand meeting David's. David looked up at the man as he pulled for the gun, but Dennis managed to get it back. He fired several bursts into the roof, scaring the group back, taking his eyes off the hill they were driving up.
"Dennis, put the gun down! We've got you outnumbered. We might even let you die with dignity," David said, putting his hands up slowly.
"I've waited for this moment for quite a while now," Dennis said with a grin of evil. He pulled the trigger.

Eli listened through his radio as the man on the other end spoke. He couldn't make out everything, the signal was bad, but it was something about having the prisoners. That was good enough.
He ordered the convoy of vehicles ahead, with his calculations showing they'd soon meet up with Dennis and his vehicle.
After being found by the military group, Eli had 'volunteered' to help their cause, making sure his elderly neighbors and their pets had a safe place to stay.
Suddenly, all contact with Dennis and his vehicle was lost.
Eli went through the possibilities in his head. He'd learned about things like this in his original military training, as well as his training with this group. Chances were, they had been attacked, maybe run into an ambush... But who would be ambushing?
The other main group, the only other group capable of attacking, had just finished peace negotiations with them... Unless it was zombies... That, or they other group has betrayed them already. Either way, it was likely that Dennis was in a tough situation, and while he didn't particularly like the man, Eli knew it was his job to keep Dennis safe.
It would be dangerous though, and depending on the circumstances, hundreds of men could be lost.

Eli

a) Go with the convoy and find/save Dennis
b) Leave without Dennis, he's probably already dead

[KaosuHamoni]

A, however, I don't want to attack the group.

[Skunk_Giant]

The car sped over the top of the hill, just as Dennis fired. The bullet flew through the roof, and the car came to a sudden halt at the bottom of the hill.
"Is everyone alright?" David checked. They looked to the front seat and found the door open. Dennis had made a run for it. When the group was sure nobody had been hurt, they stepped out of the vehicle and looked around. It seemed peaceful, but there was an air of tension around... a faint humming.
"What the hell's that?" Adder asked as the group scrambled to the top of the hill again to find the source of the annoying noise.
In the distance, a convoy of military vehicles were on their way. "SHIT!"
The group quickly scampered down the hill into a small forest and began running, but it was no use. "STOP RIGHT THERE!"
A soldier fired, and Vallorn quickly covered his head and ducked.

Eli yelled at the soldier. "Soldier, cease fire immediately! You shoot again without my orders, and I'll have YOU shot!" He turned to the others. "Prisoners, you're to come with me. If you try to move, you will be shot." Without looking at them, he turned and gave his soldiers orders to watch them.

Everyone but Eli

a) Surrender and go with Eli
b) Make a break for it

[Skunk_Giant]

Just wanted to let you guys know, it may seem like I'm doing more for The Family than Z-Apocalypse, and that's true, but it's because there are so many more players in The Family. Please just remember, I'm not dropping Z-Apocalypse, I wont abandon it.

[The Bum]

Make a break for it!

[vallorn]

im bolting for that forest.

[arogon343]

Ill go with vall.

[Sir_Luke]

I'll go with vall, and use him as a shield.
B)

[Skunk_Giant]

Uh, guys? Still looking for responses...

[Blackadder51]

aaaaaaaaaa

[vallorn]

aaaaaaaaaa

did you mean "A" or stand still and scream "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"?

[Skunk_Giant]

Both.

[Sir_Luke]

Never surrender! Go with B!

[random980]

Always fighting back is going to get someone killed. Or should i say ANOTHER-ONE killed!
/me does not like being dead, nor do i want anyone else joining me. OUR CHARACTERS ARNT INVINCIBLE!
Due to the lack of comments, has anyone actually realized or taken-in that ive been killed off?
As capt Jack would put it. "Wait for the opportune moment"

[Skunk_Giant]

Pete was the first to act, not wanting to return to the horrors he'd faced for so long. He pushed forward, leaping through a bush. Everyone but Sarge, David and Adder ran, and Eli's men opened fire.
Luke fell first, a bullet in his foot (-25HP), Pete next, a bullet in his hand throwing him off balance (-15HP).
Sarge called out for the group to stop, but they continued.
Vallorn reached for Luke, James for Pete, and they continued, bringing the wounded with them.
Eli turned to watch as his men began to run into the forest after the escapees, but he stopped them. "Stop. That's zombie territory. I'm not sending any of my men in there."
He turned to David, Sarge and Adder. "Well, let's see who the good prisoners are..."
He looked at Adder first, checking him for any signs of infection, before moving onto David. Finally, Sarge.
"Sarge?" he whispered in disbelief.
"Eli..."
"But... you... how did you...?"
"Not important."
Eli looked at his lost friend for a moment. "And then you followed the path of a criminal?"
Sarge sighed. "Look, I know you've got your orders, but Dennis is a liar. He ordered his men to capture Chef."
"Chef? What are you talking about?"
"Chef was a survivor with us. He was bitten, but didn't turn straight away. When we found a military base, we thought we were saved, but it soon became clear we were far from it. We tried escaping, but in the chaos, Chef was captured."
"So... you didn't kill this 'Chef' guy?"
"Well, we did, but we didn't. They tried to make him their ideal super soldier, but they just made him a more intelligent zombie. He attacked everyone, and when we came to try and break him out in that big battle six months ago, he ran at us in an attempt to turn us. We had no choice. Dennis is the real killer here."
Eli sighed again and looked around. "What if I could get you out of here?"
"You can tell everyone the truth?"
"No... But I can get you to safe place. Get you out of this mess."
"Please Eli... We're good people... We just want to survive like everyone else."
"What about your friends? The guys that ran away? No way I'm gonna be able to save them... Sorry..."
"We'll search for them then. If you can just get us out of this situation."
"Alright, let me think..."

Eli

a) Run away with Sarge, David and Adder. Betray your men.
b) Run away with Sarge, David and Adder. Tell your men what you're doing and why, see if they can help. They may turn on you.
c) Help the three get away, but don't escape with them. Trick your men into thinking it was an accident.
d) Help the three get away, but don't escape with them. Tell your men what's going on.

[KaosuHamoni]

Erm...

C) I'll re-unite with them later, also, you never know, I may be able to cause an uprising against Dennis from the inside.

[Skunk_Giant]

"Look, I have orders, and I'll be in a hell of a lot of trouble if I let you get away."
David sighed. "Fair enough. Just try to get us out of a death sentence."
"Hey, I only get in trouble if I'm caught," Eli said.
A grin spread on Sarge's face. "So how's it gonna work?"
"You punch me, grab the gun, hold me hostage. Get out of range, push me away, run."
"You sure that'll work? Wont your men shoot us?" Adder asked.
"They have orders not to do anything that involves getting someone higher up in danger, even if they're trying to save them."
And then, like that, the plan was put into action. Sarge pretended to punch Eli, who stepped back. Sarge grabbed his gun and held Eli as a hostage. "Don't follow us, or he's dead!" Then, he whispered, "let's grab a car."
He and the others made their way to the nearest car and got in safely, still with Eli. They drove about two hundred metres up, before opening the door and 'pushing' Eli out.
Eventually, they stopped and took a rest.
"So what now?"

Adder (since Kindy's away and Sarge is MIA)

a) Go into the forest, find the others, risk the zombies
b) Go onwards, find a way out of the country to a safe place.

[Blackadder51]

AAAAAAAAA

[Skunk_Giant]

Stop screamin'!

[Skunk_Giant]

Sarge looked around, sweat pouring down his face. The sun was shining bright on them, burning the three horribly. The forest looked so inviting... Shady... ponds with pure clean water... And their friends.
"We can't leave them," Adder finally said. "We've been through so much... from the mall, to the bus, to the military complex, to the NEXT military complex. They wouldn't leave us. I think we all know that for a fact."
David nodded in agreement. "So, into the forest?"
"Into the forest."
And the three started the car up and drove. They had no idea of what would happen next.

Vallorn was at the front of the group, the miserable group. They all felt horrible, abandoning Adder, David and Sarge back there. They had hoped the three would run too, but were obviously wrong.
Suddenly, there was a snap, and everything went black.

David hopped out of the car. Ahead of them, the three could see a small house in the middle of the woods, lit up by candlelight and a bonfire out the front. In the distance, they could hear the moans of the living dead.
"Should we check it out?" David asked.
"Of course... It's probably them."
Carefully, the group approached the house. Without weapons, they had no clue what they would do if there were zombies in the house... They'd be doomed unless they could make it back to the car in time.
Adder pushed the door open quietly...

[Skunk_Giant]

Luke, Vallorn, James and Pete sat, tied to chairs, gagged.
"What the hell's going on?"
The three set to setting the others free, but quickly were stopped.
"I wouldn't do that! I would put my bloody hands up, and spin around!" Dennis screamed. "I am so GOD DAMN TIRED OF YOU! Give up! Why do you continue to play cat and mouse like this is a bloody game? It's the end of the world, and we are the only saviours. If you're not on our team, you're with the zombies, and I mean that literally. You beocme one of us, or you become one of them."
"A world ruled by you would burn quicker than a world ruled by zombies," Adder spat. "You're a pathetic man."
"Those insults hurt," Dennis whispered. "But don't worry, Dennis! They'll all be gone soon!" he laughed.
David started to notice the signs of an insane man. "Dennis..."
"DENNIS!" the crazed man screamed! "DENNIS! DENNIS! DENNIS! DENNIS! DENNIS! DENNIS!"
Sarge looked around for a weapon.
"DENNIS! DENNIS! DENNIS! DENNIS!"
"He's going mad!" David cried.
"No shit!" Adder responded.
Behind him, Adder could hear the muffles, gagged cries of Vallorn. He turned to find Vallorn nodding his head in the direction of Dennis's gun, which he had dropped on the ground in his crazed state.
Adder leaped for the gun and Dennis instantly leaped back. Now, sane again, he slowly put his hands up, before rushing out the door.
"Damn it!" David cried.
Seconds later, there was a loud metallic bang, and a small pond of blood flew past the front door.
"What the hell...?" Adder muttered, edging towards the door. In the shadows made by the bonfire, he could see a figure... a figure holding a frying pan.

[Skunk_Giant]

OK, fix'd. You can read now.

[vallorn]

CHEEEEEEFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!



oh wait hes a super zombie isnt he... oh god...

[Skunk_Giant]

Pain. A lot of pain... Why? Is this what being born feels like? Am I being born? Do I remember what happened?
No...
Do I remember what pain is?
Maybe...
Do I remember what the word 'remember' means?
I don't know.
But what is there to remember anyway? Do I remember the moments before I'm born? I don't, but maybe that's because I'm not being born anyway...
And then I'm awake.
"C'mon, zombie boy, let's get you to an operating table..."
That voice is familiar... Do I know it?
I'm being lifted now... Where?
I think I'm in a hospital... What's a hospital?
More pain. Much more pain now. My stomach feels like it's being sliced open... No... It IS being sliced open. It doesn't hurt as much though. Still, I suppose I should fight back. Instinct.
I'm not sure what's happening now, but there's liquids everywhere. My arms are moving, and with every push, they come back to me, redder than before.
I think I hear a woman screaming, but I'm not so sure why.
My pain grows when my arms move forward again and hit a sharp object.
Now, I think I've ripped my hands back, and their mixed with my blood.
The room is silent. It's peaceful... But the sounds are getting further away.
"Shit! He's getting away!" The same voice screams again.
I wonder who 'he' is? Is 'he' me?
But I'm not going anywhere, am I? Maybe I am.
I think I'm in the forest now. I need to find that man, the owner of the voice. The man who tried to cut me open.
One day, I will.

Six months later...

Where am I now? I know he's near. The man. The voice. He's close.
Is that a fire? A fire and a house in the middle of the forests. Is he there?
I hear voices. I hear plenty of voices as I get closer to the door.
Then he runs out of the door towards me, and I introduce him to Conker.

"Is that... CHEF?" Vallorn cried with happiness, he was abut to run forward when he stopped. "Wait... He's a zombie though... I thought you killed him!" he said to Adder.
"So did I..."

I wonder if there are more? Maybe I can help the people in the house... Maybe the man, Dennis was trying to cut them open too...
I'll go into the house, and I will help them. I'll keep them safe from the zombies...
Now I'm at the window, and I'm looking through. There are people. Yes, people to help.
But then I realise. I see one of them, I remember...
I remember the guns. I remember the shooting, the pain that snapped my head back. I remember the man that tried to kill me before Dennis cut me open. And I know I must return the favour.

"Chef... Chef, we're... your friends," David called uncertainly.
Chef smashed through the window, clawing at everything he could find. He looked around for a moment, and Adder raised the gun, unsure of whether he could fire again. He shut his eyes and pulled the trigger.
Out of ammo.
"Fuck!"
Chef leaped at him.

Adder

a) Get out of the way!
b) Stay where you are! If you get out of the way, Chef will have a clear path to the tied up victims!

[random980]

Im back bitches!
