Dead Bodies Everywhere





Chapter 1





The event that would occur on the morning of April third would be later named the rising of the dead. The first sightening of one of the "Zombies", as some people would later call them, was seen by a women named Laura Catherol at six thirty-six in the morning. But fifteen minutes before the first sightening was seen, Rick Stanley a man with no importance to the world really, came walking down the street in Fort Rock, Indiana. In one hand he held a bag with the words, EVERYTHING YOU NEED, written on the side. And in the other hand he held his ciggarete. He had been meaning to stop smoking but he just couldnt do it. That morning had been chilly but began to warmthin up later on. Rick was in town because he was shopping for something that his wife, Laura, would like. Inside the baggy with the words, EVERYTHING YOU NEED, written on the side was a small paperweight and a comic book. While he was out his thought he mine as well buy a spider-man comic for his thirteen year old son, Micheal. Thats when he heard the police siren. Rick straned his neck to turn and look at the potral car come speeding down the street. It flew by and made Rick's hair fly. The police car stopped down at a park and thats when Rick saw the ambulence pull up too. Rick started to walk faster towards the park to see what was going on. Rick then saw two men come out with a stretcher and pick a man who had a big gash in his neck up. Rick then put his hand to his mouth and gasped. There was so much blood he couldnt belive it. Then Rick saw a cop step out of his car and pull out his handgun. Thats when Rick started to walk faster towards the park. Rick was just about there when the cop yelled, "STOP GET ON THE GROUND SIR!" Then a pause and the cop shot his gun. Then another pause longer and Rick saw the cop tackle the person he had shot. That shot would injur any normal person, Rick thought when he finally got to the park. "Whats going on?" Rick asked a women who was next to him with her arms crossed and a disgusted look on her face. "Well that man there on the ground bit the man who went away in the ambulence in the neck. Almost tore the skin completly off", the women explained. "Why did he do it?" Rick asked. "I dont know I just saw the man run up and bite him for no reason. There was another call about a block from here about someone else who was bit" Then the man who the cop had shot suddenly jumped up and bit the cop in the back. The man swung his head back and completly tore the skin off the cops back. The cop screamed in pain and fell over. Then the man who had bit the cop looked up and saw Rick and the other women next to him. Thats when Rick heard lots of sirens. It sounded like twelve police cars were flying down the road at once. Then three police cars pulled up next to Rick and five cops stepped out of the cars and one of them yelled, "Everyone down!" Then he pulled up his gun and shot the man in the head. His face exploded and he fell to the ground. "WHAT THE HELL!" the women next to Rick yelled as the cop who was bit in the back jumped up and tackled her. Rick stepped sideways and yelled. The women tried to push him off but he was too strong. Then the cop bit her face and ripped off most of her cheek. She screamed and then the cop just still kept on chewing at her. Rick had to do something and he knew he did. So he brought back his hand with the bag in it and swung the paperweight at him. The paperwight hit the cop in the temple and he fell to the ground with a grunt. Then all five of the other cops started to fire and one of the bullets hit the screwed up Cops head and it exploded. Rick stepped back and looked at the cop. "Have you benn bitten young man?" one of the cops asked Rick. "No sir I havnt whats going on?" "We dont exactly know but we do know you need to get inside a refugee somewhere and stay save. And dont get bitten by these things" Rick took a step and then began to run. He car was only a block from here so once he got to there he could see what was going on. Rick had ran faster then, then he had ever in his life. Once he reached his car he locked the doors and flipped on the radio. The news man instantly came on. "...Everyone needs to get in their houses and lock on the doors and board up all the windows. Everyone needs some kinda of weapon to kill things. Perfibily a gun buy anything big will work. Anything that will destroy the brain. The only way to kill those "Zombies" is to destroy the brain..." Someone then hti the window hard and Rick looked out the window. It was the women who was next to him earlier and half her cheek was gone. Blood was dripping down her lip and she was slipping off the window. She was going to break the window if she kept on doing that and Rick knew that. So Rick quickly opened the door and smashed her side. She fell to the ground and Rick then put the car in drive and drove away. As Rick drove he hoped to god his son and wife were ok.





Chapter 2





At the time Rick Stanley saw the zombies in the park Micheal his son was fine is their home about twenty miles from where Rick was. Micheal was sitting in the computer chair infront of his big screen TV with his two friends Jason, and David. They were playing Xbox when the thud at the door came. Micheal kind of jumped and paused there game to go see who was at the door. Micheal opened the door and there neighbor John Scott came stumbling in. "Call 911 there everywhere!" He yelled as he fell to the ground. "What are you talking about John?" "JUST DO IT!" he yelled and Micheal was already at the phone. But when he dialed 911 nothing happend the phone lines were down. "Its dead" Micheal said as he dropped the phone to the ground. "Oh my god. Son you have to get out of here now!" Micheal jumped and then said, "I would rather wait until my dad gets home before I go anywhere" Then John's hand jerked forward and grabbed onto Micheals collar and screamed, "Your dad is already dead!" Micheal stared at him and asked, "How do you know that?" "Because everyone is dead!" Micheal then asked, "What are those thing out there?" Jason asked he was at the window. "KID! Get away from the windows if they know where here there will be no way out." And then Jason said, "ARE THOSE ZOMBIES?" John Scott looked at him again hobbles over towards him and threw him away from the window and then closed the blinds. "If thats what you want to call them sure." John said as he walked over to the door and put on the dead lock. "We have to get out of here now. Does your dad collect any guns?" Micheal looked up at him and said, "No but Kent Salo next door was in Desert Storm and now hes a gun fanatic. The only way we could get his guns would be to hope to god hes dead or gone" John looked up and said, "Well lets get moving get something you can hit them with until we get the guns" MIcheal went into his room and grabbed three baseball bats for him and his two friends. John went into the Rick's room and opened his tool box and pulled out a hammer. Once all four of them were together they slid opened the back slide door. Once they were all outside John could see from far away a fire was happening and he could hear people screaming in pain. At once all four of them started to run towards the fence to the right of them. The house over the fence was a two story house and it was painted blue. John grabbed Micheals feet and threw him over the fence. Then one by one John threw them over the fence. Finally when it was his turn his grabbed on to the top of the fence and was getting ready to shove himself over. Then out of no where there was alot of moaning and screaming and yelling. John turned around toward Rick's house and zombies where coming at him in the thousands. "Oh my dear god" he said as he threw himself over the fence. "GET IN THE HOUSE GO, GO, GO!" he yelled as they slid open the back slide door. At once Joh began to stack things behind it so it could slide open. Then when he was finished with that he garbebd bigger things like the couch and stacked them in front of the front door. "Ok were finished everyone start searching for the guns. They could be anywhere" Thats when John saw all the blood in the kitchen. It was a trail but John didnt know where it led to. He followed it and it led into the basement. Thats where Micheal and his friends went to look. "Oh my god" John said as he gripped the hammer and went down the steps one by one. Halfway down the steps he saw a maglite so he grabbed it. He turned it on and yelled, "Micheal where are you and your friends" "Were over here, we found some" Joh heard MIcheal say. John started walking with his head down when he heard the noise. He slwoly raised his head and shone the maglite around the room. Then in the corner of the room was Kent Salo eating his wifes instestins. "Jesus" John said. And Kent snapped his head around and growled. He jumped up and charged John. John brought the hammer back and swung at Kent. But Kent grabebd him by his waist and tackled him. Kent moved his head fast and tried to bite at John's neck but John swung the hammer again and hit him in the temple exact. Kent fell over and John rolled over to his side and got up. Kent was already on his feet. It looked as if he was smiling but John didnt have enough to time to think about it. Kent again charged him but this time there was a gunshot and Kents face imploded. Kents dead body fell to the ground with a loud THUD! John twisted around and saw Micheal had a .45 and it was pointed ahead. "Oh god thank you Micheal" Micheal lowerd the gun and turned back around towards the gun shelf. "Holy hell look at all these guns" John said and he put his hand in the pile of guns. He grabbed out two shotguns and found two straps and strapped them around his back. Then he loaded the guns to make sure they were perfectly loaded. Then he filled his pockets and The side of the guns with ammo. Then he grabbed four handguns and loaded them all and then loaded his pockets with ammo. John then strapped on the other two handguns to his belt and kept out two of them. "I dont even think this is going to be enough." John at last but not least he grabbed an uzi and loaded it and then loaded more ammo into his pcokets. John got more ammo for the machine gun then he did any other gun. "I think we should all grab back-packs and load them with ammo and more guns so just in case we find other people who need guns" So they all four got back-packs and loaded themself with more guns. MIcheal had four hand guns strapped all the way around his chest and back, and he had one automatic pistol. His two friends had the same as Micheal. When they were about finished John suddenly heard glass break up stairs. "Oh **** there here we have to get moving. Load your guns and get ready" John said as he began running up the wooden basement stairs. Once he was up stairs he saw that the slide door glass had been broken and zombies were streaming in. John raised his two hand guns and began firing, being careful to hit every single one in the head. John ran for the front door and began to throw all the thing out of his way. "Lets go boys where getting ou-" The front door opened before John could finish and someone walked in.


Chapter 3





Pushing the numbers of his wife's cell phone was hard as he drove threw thousands of zombies. Rick finally got threw to his wife and he almost stopped the car and jumped out he was so happy. "Hello" Rick heard his wife say. "LAURA. Your ok! Where are you?"Rick asked his wife. "I'm at the grocery store with lots of other people. Those things are trying to get in Rick you have to help me PLEASE" "Its ok honey I have to go home and get Micheal and then I'll come get you. You just sit there and be safe OK?" "OK but please hurr-" The line went dead. "****!" Rick yelled and threw his cell phone down. Thats when Rick saw his house in the line of other houses. Rick pulled over to the side of the road and got out. He ran over to his house door and opened it. No one was inside. He ran in and looked around no one. But before he left he went into his room to open his tool box. But it was already open. And his hammer was gone. "What the hell?" he mutterd under his breath, so Rick instead grabbed his monkey wrench and left his house. He stepped out side and a zombie was just standing there. Rick swung the wrench and nailed the zombie in the face and it fell to the ground dead. Thats when a gun shot came from the house next door. It came from Kent Salo's house. Rick faced towards the house and then went into a dead sprint. Once he reached the house he opened the front door. When he did right in front of him stood John Scott. He looked dumbfound. "Oh my god! Rick your ok!" John hugged him and when he bent down to hug Rick, Rick saw over Johns shoulder. Behind John was his son. Rick pushed John off and stepped over to Micheal. "MICHEAL OH GOSH IM SO GLAD YOUR OK I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!" Thats when Rick saw all the zombies behind them "We have to leave lets go" John said and he ran out of the house. Rick put his son down and ran after him. Micheal was last out and he pulled the door cloesed when he left. Rick was in front when they reahced the car, Rick had to swing his wrench at a few zombies before he could open the door. Micheal was getting ready to get in when he said, "Oh my god wheres David?" Rick opened the door again and looked out into the front yard of Kent Salos house. There laying in a group was Micheals friend David, he was being disembowled. "Holy lord" Rick mutterd and got back in the car. "Im sorry Micheal but your friends gone" John said. Rick started up the car, turned around and left the neighborhood. Once they were out of the neighborhood John put his back-pack on his lap and pulled out a handgun and some ammo. "Here ya go Rick take this you will need it." Rick looked at it and said, "No need we are going to the Neils gun shop. We can reload there and get more guns" No body talked while they drove. When they finally got to the gun shop there were dead bodies everywhere in front of the store. They were all zombies and they had all been shot. Rick stepped out with his monkey wrench in hand and John also stepped out but now he unstrapped one of his shotguns. John pumped the shotgun and went into the store. Micheal and Jason were right behind the two men. Rick went behind the counter and saw Neil Diamond with his head blown off. He had killed himself. Rick turned away and got a shotgun from the rack. He also picked up a strap and strapped it to his chest. Then he picked up and small handgun off the floor, then Rick found a ankle holster and holsterd the small gun to his ankle. Then Rick found an auto matic handgun and put it in his pants. One by one, John pulled off all the handguns and put them in his back-pack. John also found all the ammo he could and put it in his back-pack. Rick also pulled off a sack and filled it with a sniper rifle, two more shotguns and three more handguns. Once they were finished Rick pumped his loaded shotgun and walked back outside. Then Rick saw it, something he had forgotten all about. It had been right infront of the gun store the whole time and Rick never thought of it. The Fort Rock Mall.





Chapter 4





The security room in the Fort Rock Mall was queit exect for the small sound of the cheif gaurd, Mike Sowl, snoring. When one of the stores glass broke it woke him up immidietly. He jumped out of his seat and kind of sat there for a few minutes looking around wondering what was going on. Then he looked at the moniter and saw four people walking down the Mall's hallway. Mike got up form his seat and unholsterd his handgun. He opened the security room door and walked out into the mall. Mike immidietly saw the four people walking down the hall. They were walking towards him. It looked as if they were loaded up on guns. But it didnt matter how many guns they had one shot to the head to any of them is going to kill um'. Mike started walking faster and then he rasied his handgun, pointed towards the four people and yelled, "GET OUT OF MY MALL NOW!" He was about to pull off a shot when one of the smaller kids pulled his shot first. It hit Mike in the chest and he first dropped his gun and then put his hand to his chest. "No, no dont let those things in here no" Those were Mikes finale words as Micheal, Jason, John and Rick walked down towards his body "Micheal why did you shoot that man!?" John yelled at Micheal. "Because he was going to shoot us" Rick asnwerd for his son. "Are the doors locked?" John asked as he walked into the security room. On one of the screens it said, DOORS LOCKED."Well that ansswers my question" John said as a remark to his own question. Thats when John saw the other screens, "Oh my god, Rick I think you should see the security cameras" Rick walked over and joined John. "Jesus Christ" Rick said as he stood there staring at screens, Each screen showed a different angle of the parking lot, and each angle was filled with millions of zombies. "They know somethings in here. And if its not that then somehow they remember they dont know how they remember but those things remember they want to be in here" John said. Thats when the gunshots came. "What the hell is that?" John roared. "Someone else is in here. And they have guns" Rick said as he unstrapped his shotgun. At the same time John unholsterd his shotgun. They both loaded there guns while Micheal and Jason unholsterd there guns. The gunshots didnt stop for a few minutes and when they finally did, all four of the group heard footsteps coming. "O ****, o ****, o ****!" John whisperd. Thats when the three convicts, in orange plad suits with each of there cell numbers on there breast pocket, walked into Johns sights. They each had a hunting shotgun. Thats when the convicts walked over to the front doors and just broke everysingle window in the doors. By then John had already had enough. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!" John yelled as he ran out of the security room and pointed the shotgun at the three men. "Hey whoa man. Where just lettin' the zombies in" The first one said. "You ******" John said and shot the lead man in the stomach with the shotgun. He flew back threw the doors and into the pile of zombies that were coming threw the doors. The two other men yelled and aimed there guns at John. But it was too late, the zombies were already all over the two other men. Micheal and Jason were already running the oppisate direction of the zombies to the other end of the mall. Hopefully they have a back door,John thought to himself. When they were finally far enough away where they couldnt see the zombies they all sat down and thought everythinh threw. "What are we supposed to do now? In a few minutes this place is going to be swarming with zombies." John said, "Rick who was sitting down with his head drooped swiped his head up and said, "My wife we need to go get her. She is at Grocery-Mart." John got up and said, "Rick I dont know how to tell you this but shes probably either dead or left" Rick snapped Johns hand off his shoulder and grabbed him by his collar and yelled, "DONT YOU EVER SAY THAT ABOUT MY WIFE AGAIN!" John pushed Rick off of him and said, "Suttle down man, suttle down. I'm sorry lets go look for her" They all left that part of the mall and went for the back door. Once they finally found it out in the back parking lot there was a utility van that was used to bring things to the mall. They all loaded up into it and drove it to the grocery store.





Chapter 5





The glass crunching under each step was proabably the worst sound Officer Howlond ever heard. Officer Howlond was the only african american cop in the police buisness in Fort Rock. And he was also the cheif of police before the whole zombie thing but now he was just a normal human looking for a way to live. He held a pump shotgun and was walking threw the local grocery store looking for food. No one was there but him and a few dead bodies. One of the bodies was a women and she had a cell phone right next to her body. Thats when Cheif Howlond heard footsteps behind him, he swifled around and aimed his gun at the four people behind him. "No dont shoot please dont shoot." The tallest one said. "What's your names?" Officer Howlond asked. The tallest one spoke again, "Mine is John, his is Rick and the two kids are Jason and Micheal" "Nice to meet you mines Frank Howloand but you can just call me Frank" Thats when Rick pushed ahead of Frank and crouched next to the dead body of the women Frank saw earlier. "Oh my god no, no, no, NO!" Rick yelled and pounded the floor. Micheal then put his hands to his eyes and began to sobb. "Is it mom, dad?" Micheal asked Rick. Rick walked over to Micheal, hugged him and said, "Yea son it is, I'm so sorry" Frank walked on threw the grocery store feeding his pack to some food. "You guys mind if I come with you?" Frank asked the four people. "Yes please we could use some company" John asnwerd. Thats when the zombies came. The first one thatc came in grabbed Jason by the shoulders and jerked him back and ripped his throat out. Micheal yelled and stumbled over a peice of wood. Micheal fell to the ground and Rick was trying to help him up when one of the zombies gripped onto his arm. "NO YOU SON OF A ***** GET OFF ME!" Rick yelled and put the barrel of his shotgun to its head and fired. Its whole head was gone in seconds. Rick picked Micheal up off the ground and pushed him to the back of the store. Frank fumbled around his belt for a second then finally pulled off a gernade. "EVERYONE BACK!" Frank yelled. John and Rick immidietly jumped back as Frank pulled the clip on the gernade. He threw it right in the middle of the group. About all the zombies there burst into nothing when the gernade exploded. Now there was a perfect path out of the store. Frank grabbed Micheal and pulled him out of the store with John and Rick. Once they were out they all jumped in the van and drove off. "Oh my thank you so much" John said to Frank. "No problem" Frank answerd. Zombies were piling up in the street so Rick was hitting them non stop. "This vans going to break down before we get threw these things." Rick said. Thats when Frank saw the propane tank in the cornor of the van. "I have an idea. Stop the van real quick" Rick breaked the van and Frank grabbed the propane tank and opened the top hatch in the van. He got on top of the van and threw the propane tank ine the crowd. He unholsterd his shotgun pumped it and fired. It hit the tank first hit and it exploded. Frank dropped back into the van and Rick started moving again. "Good thinking" John said. "Oh my god I just rememberd something. The helicopter flys they give down town. Where they take you all around town for an hour. The helicopter that takes you is always in the hanger. Maybe its there now" John said. Rick looked back at John and he had a big smile on his face.





Chapter 6





Rick pulled the van into the airport and all four of them got out. They all four started walking towards the bulding you had to go threw to get to the hangers. Frank opened the door and saw thousands of zombies. They were everywhere swarming around something, Frank pulled out a gernade and threw it in the crowrd. It exploded and all the zombies flew back agains the wall. All four of then started walking threw the path of zombies. But one didnt die. It brought its hand out and grabbed onto Micheals ankle, Micheal screamed and tried to pull back. Rick aimed his pistol at the zombies hand and fired. It moaned and let go, but it was already to late. The zombie had bitten Micheal before Rick had fired. "OH MY DAD PLEASE HELP ME I DONT WANNA' DIE!" But now more zombies were getting up and all of them grabbed onto Micheal and pulled him back into the crowd. Rick flipped out and jumped into the crowd of zombies with his shotgun and started firing. Most of them went down but a couple were still up. Eventully one of the zombies disembowled Micheal and Rick screamed in anger and blew the zombies head off. One of the zombies grabbed onto Ricks back and ripped out a part of his spine. Rick screamed and fell to the ground crying. John pulled out his uzi and started pulling off shots like crazy. He took out most of them but Frank and John had to leave so they started to run. They reached the helicopter and John jumped it and tried to start it. Frank stayed at the bottem picking off the zombies one by one. Finally John got the helicopter started and Frank jumped it and started killing off even more zombies with Johns uzi. But one of the zombies jumped into the helicopter and bit Frank on the arm. Frank threw the zombie out and lit it up. "Oh my god Frank"John mutterd. But John wasnt worried about Frank being bit he was looking at the fuel gage in the helicopter. The dial was at E. Slowly the helicopter died.
