(This part is a shortened part of the original story which is made by me, and since the forum wants a "short" story, most dialogues are removed, and the main characters won't be mentioned, only if hopefully a few legionnaires wish for the full story, I will post it sometime. And this story is completely original, may have bad grammar or spelling error, if you find such, please post a reply, I will be editing it if I agree with your opinion, and I just got some spare time, with a few coffee, so this part is much earlier than I first mentioned)
Just swinging the bat at those ugly zombies, I am getting more and more tired. But I must go, as I see there are lots of zombies after me, I haven’t even thought about how to let the citizens know I’m not a zombie...
So tired... After killing a few zombies. I just figured out a way to let citizens recogise my “humanic” spirit. I tore a few white febric from a zombie’s shirt, and tied it onto my bat. And I just keep running, running, running...
Pretty impressed of myself, when I stopped and examining the surroundings, it’s the lobby of the mall! I see there are a few people up there, I swing my bat with the white febrics, they seem to realise it, but, ‘BANG’! This sound just totally freaked me out, thought:”Still not successful enough? Perhaps being more intelligent next life...” Then I closed my eyes...
Waking up... Never realised heaven is that dark. Maybe I was punished to hell, but I don’t feel heat of the fire, maybe hell don’t even have fire. Just as I got pulled back to real world, I saw a woman. Wait, this is the mall, and what the, I see a few people armed at barricades, this is the second floor. Everything is a mess, my brain is just going to explode...
Realising that I’m secured and safe is the best thing during this infested night, the woman told me that they were shooting a zombie crawling behind me. And they say that I was too terrorized and I was too tired so I fell asleep.
This place... I don’t know if we can call it a ‘mall’, is full of bloodstains and cracks, those ‘illegal’ gunshops saved our lives. People were blaming the gunshops for the crime rates, but now they saved our lives, pretty lucky that we still have something to save us. There are also fast food shops, household shops, and even DIY and toys shops, I guess we could stay here for a while, just a while...
I am appointed ‘scavenger’ and I have to search deep in the mall, hopefully I won’t find some more greenish drunks at the upper floors, but having a gun with me is much more appeasing than a bat. And now it’s time to sleep...
Waking up in the morning, I was shocked by the scenario of the city: Fire over the downtown and a lot of places else... Through the binoculars the people gave me, I can see the famous Roosevelt hotel is on fire and Walt Disney Concert Hall, is considered ‘ruins’, I bet it’s the earthquake who brought it down. Oh my god, my house just collapsed, perhaps one of those not big aftershocks crashed it hard. And right after my breakfast, I am ordered to go searching up the floors...
Today is my lucky day, I found a few radios and a dozen packs of batteries to support them, I also found some fossil oil in the 5th floor, but we need a generator. I remember this mall has stores selling computers in the upper floors, hopefully I can connect to internet if I find a suitable generator...
I went back to our ‘base’ with my items in midday, things seems to be doing well, although we don’t have much food. But we still have the right mood for humor and jokes, this is the best meal I ever had after the outbreak.
Found a generator with fuels and a few flashlights in the afternoon, and those guys just pulled some heavy furnitures from the household shop to hold those zombies back, I guess I can sleep well tonight, I hope tomorrow is as good as today.
Just by daybreak, I woke up and ate breakfast, and went straight to scavenging, hoping today as a good day, I found a few backpacks that can help storing some objects I found. And I also found out a secret: The toilet is working in the 4th floor, we don’t have to get those stinking plastic bags anymore! Another good news: The radio caught up some signals from the higher mountains a few kilometers from here, they say they have a farm, a few portable generators and enough supplies, since the mall isn’t that secured afterall, we’ve planned to get to there someday.
In the afternoon I took 2 backpacks with me to carry extra items. I found lots of food and water in the ‘Caesar’s Taste’ resturant at the top floor. I was a little bit late going back to ‘base’, but when I got back there, something went wrong...
Luckily I didn’t lit up the flashlight, or the base’s “undead” will find me, With my binoculars, I saw one of the closet barricaded at the escalators fell off, I should have came back earlier... Or they might not have dead. Like people say, happy times won’t last long. I pack up my items and sneak out of the mall quietly and going to the other ‘base’ heard earlier in the morning.
Picking the wrong way is a bad idea, even though I’m quiet, I wandered into a zombie’s hunting area, with only a few ammo in my gun, I prayed that I will be lucky enough to get out of this...
During the fight I found out the best way to kill a zombie is shooting its neck, and letting it’s head fall. With this knowledge in mind, I barely get out of a few zombie hordes. By daybreak, I’m sure that I’m not far from the base mentioned in the radio, but unfortunately, I ran into a 20+ zombie horde... How will I get out of this? I only have 9 ammos left in my pocket, plus 2 ammos in my gun, that will only kill approximately kill half of them. What should I do now...?
(Guys this is the first time I writing a story so please, tell me suggestions, complaints are accepted, but please post suggestions instead of complaints, sorry about the storyline and the unrealistic events, as I mentioned before, this is my first time writing a story, and the Part 3 will be posted around a few days later)
