Chapter 47 - From Cluj to Athene - Part 27

This survivor group has made it into something they did not expect to ever encounter, but yet, they do have encountered in a lot of streets of their road to their safety, a big blockage of cars, trucks and planes who were fallen from the skies. There are zombies all over the roads of this highway, wondering around or stay still and looking at the gray sky who might announce that rain might come at any time.

Ana it is the first survivor to start the shoots, and she did that because a few zombies were close to jump on her colleague Laura. A full magazine of bullets for a submachine gun has pierced the heads of nine zombies, but there were a few more coming, and the others are pulling the trigger of their ranged weapons. Alin shot three zombies with his handgun, Radu takes down eight zombies with a submachine gun. And Laura, who managed to dodge the bullets of their survivors who were trying to protect her in the first place.

Laura it is hiding on the left side of a damaged car, she sees the teammates of the group shooting the zombies coming at their direction. Then, Alina throws a weapon to Laura, and she successfully catches the weapon, which is a normal handgun, and she uses it to shoot the zombies who are coming at them. She manages to shoot only three of them, but the one shoot weren't killed cause the bullets they only hit non-vital organs such as legs and arms.

"Shit." says Marcus seeing a zombie jumping over the car and landing on his head and proceed to bit his neck. "ARGH!"

"MARCUS!" yelled Radu shooting the zombie who just jumped almost 3 feet to him. He manages to take the beast down, but he looks at the Marcus bite, and he sees him crying. Then Radu aims his submachine gun at Marcus and without looking at him pleading Mercy, Radu shoots him.

This shot has made everyone from this group feeling extremely shocked by the fact that someone from their group has decided to kill someone valuable for them. Even though he was a dude who seemed quite weird from the others, he was still a human. A human who just died right in the middle of chaos.

"Radu!" says Laura looking shocked at Radu. "What have done to him?"

"He is bitten on the head!" says Radu to Laura. "We cannot risk it!"

"Guys!" says Alina to them. "I know. I am sad too, but we have to move on, otherwise we will join him. So. RUN!" she proceeds to run ahead, and the other survivors are following her.

"You have got to be shitting me." say Alin who has a broken leg, but Radu comes and helps him walk faster by carrying him on the back while he uses a handgun to protect him.

The group of survivors proceeds to run, letting the corpse of Marcus lying on the road, bleeding out in a fast speed. A crawler managed to crawl under cars, and he got closer to Marcus body, he proceeds to eat the corpse of Marcus, and as soon as he was eating it, his missing legs proceeded to reproduce in a fast speed.

A few moments later, the team made it almost one hundred meters of distance from their cars. Claudia with Ana are climbing on a van, only to see a few zombie corpses coming at them. They proceed to shoot those things with their submachine guns. Down, Radu is letting Alin stay on a car while he is kicking a zombie head of his body, Alina saw Radu doing that move on it, and she praises him.

"Nice kick."

"Yeah... Hah... Thanks." says Radu to her, and he quickly takes a metal bar from the car, and he uses it to smash a crawler head, hen he goes back to his brother, to put down another creature who was coming at them.

Laura and Anakin are running ahead, carrying their weapons and shooting at the closest zombies they are encountering. Letting their survivors in the back, they are exposed to some big dangers, especially in a scenario where a lot of zombies can jump over cars, or crawl under them.

"Fuck!" says Laura after she shoots the last bullet to a zombie who cannot die.

"YEAH!" says Anakin who's bashing the creature with his pistol instead of shooting it. He put the creature down, then he bashed that metal thing into the monster skull, until it stopped moving. "Put... Almost close..."

"Get up!" says Alina running with the other survivors to Anakin. "We have to move on."

Anakin is looking behind to see that a bunch of zombies are coming after them. He took his pistol and he run after their friends. While he was running, he observed a zombie who was jumping at him, but the man managed to dodge the flying attack by jumping in front. That creature has hit a car window-shield, and it died there. Anakin didn't have time to analyze how did the creature died there because he has to run like his teammates.

Klaus was close to get bitten by a zombie, but Radu was the one who saved him by shooting the zombie head with a gun. Radu looks at the thing who shoot, and he observed that it has a lot of burn marks all around his decomposed skin. Even though Klaus thanked him for this gesture, Radu was much worried about the creature he killed. Then, Ana, after she managed to climb over a truck to see how much they have to go, she sees something truly horrifying down at almost thirty feet from them, a fire who was just started and burned a lot of zombies who are running around screaming, on corpses who were zombies and decent human beings once, and on some animals who were there for some reason like searching for food, or they got attracted by meat smell.

"Guys! There is a fire going on there!" says Ana to her colleagues.

"What should we do?" asks Ho Lee to Alina. "Should we try and leave this highway and use the hills to go there?"

"There is zombie there, too!" says Ana who sees that on the hills a lot more of zombie corpses are staying still looking at the Sun, or some zombies who are walking to the highway.

"We have to go straight!" says Alina.

"W-What ?!" says Claudia. "Are you crazy?!"

"Yep. Probably." says Alina who is taking the lead and proceed to run ahead while some of her friends are tagging along.

"You must be kidding me." says Alin and Radu at the same time after they saw the fire in front of them, who's covering almost the entire highway, letting only a small portion to crawl, but that space wouldn't let both of them to go together.

"What are we going to do?" asks Radu to his brother, he looks back and sees a few zombies coming at them.

"Leave me." says Alin picking up the gun.

"W-What?!" says Radu who's not letting his brother from his back.

"I-I can follow you." says Alin sweating. "I-I can shoot and run."

Radu was not even thinking of letting his brother go alone and fight the mutants who are coming after them, so he decided to try and go there by himself first, then he will try to see if his brother will come along. Alin aimed his gun at a few of those things who are coming after him, and he proceeds to shoot them. He managed to kill three or four by hitting their head, but there were more and way too hard to kill with only a few more ammo who remained in that handgun magazine.

"Fuck!" says Alin walking in a faster rhythm to that opening their teammates and his brother were taking it to ignore the fire wall on the cars, trailers and other heavy things who were blocking their entire way.

Before he was close to go into that gap, a few bullets proceed to go through the fire. Alin knew that those bullets who were launched from the other side are most likely the ones his teammates are using it. He uses this moment to crawl into the small passage as fast as he can in his health situation.

After a long and exhausting crawl, Alin made it on the other side, and there, Radu is the one who's greeting him, while the other seven survivors are busy to take the zombies from the back and the ones who are standing on their way to the freedom.
