Chapter 28 - Chapter 28

I see the zombie mutant bug walking fast towards A, B, C and D's car. The bug looks like a beetle. " Lets teach this fucker who is boss" says Lily. Despite the alarming situation, Spencer, Tobecca and I look at her in shock. Lily is already out of the car. " You heard the lady. Let's go" says Spencer. We get out of the car. " Hey. Get over here and help" shouts C to the patrol members. " Attack" shouts D. We all start shooting at the bug. The bug seems to have some strong armour skin because our bullets are not doing anything. The bug starts flying. " What the hell" shouts Tobecca. It flies in circles before coming down. All of a sudden, the bug spits something out of its mouth. " Get to cover now. I have seen something like that in movies. It is spitting acid" I shout. Everyone tries to find cover. I run behind the car. A, B, C and D are still shooting the bug. An acid ball drops on top of B. " No" shouts A, C and D. " Get to cover now" shouts one of the patrol members. The bug lands on the ground again. "I don't want to waste my ammo on this bug! We are not even doing any damage to it" I say. " I agree. We need to reserve our ammo but we have got to kill this bug. Andrew, you watch these types of movies. What is the bug's weakness" asks Lily. I am stressed to even think but lives are on the line. " Well, I remember something similar to this situation. You can use fire to burn it. Sometimes fire will make any zombie mutant reveal their weaknesses or you can shoot it in the eye" I say. Spencer shouts what I told him to A, C, D and the patrol members. I see the bug kill two patrol members by spitting it's acid onto them. " I have a grenade launcher" shouts one of the patrol members. " I have a sniper with me" shouts A. " What are you waiting for? Do it" shouts Tobecca. The patrol member shoots three grenades at the bug. A gets his sniper ready. The grenades go off. The bug gets lifted in the air and crashes on its back. The bug's armour is lowered to reveal it's face. " Now" I shout. A aims his sniper and shoots the bug in the eye. A shoots a few more times. " Yes" we all shout. " Nice work Andrew" says Lily. " Thanks but it was a team effort" I say. " Lets make sure that this bug is dead" says Spencer. A, C, D, us and the patrol members walk towards the bug. C kicks the bug. " You killed B" shouts C. The bug dosent move. " Hey. Someone needs to call Riley. She needs to hear about this" says D. " We will go" says a patrol member. " We better wait as well. We owe Riley and A,C and D that" says Lily. " Okay. It's scary though. I thought that the zombie bug was in another town or something" says Spencer. " Remember that information is old but I am curious as to why the zombie mutant bug came here" I say. " We will never know" says Tobecaa. After an hour, two cars arrive. Riley and her security team exit the car. " Sorry. I tried to make it here sooner but I had to make sure that the town was safe. I am sorry everyone. No words can replace the lives that we lost today. You will all be labeled heroes and the lives we lost as legendary heroes" says Riley. " Heroes" shouts everyone including me. I can't help but smile. I am sad that we just lives but we stoped a massive threat. Riley approaches us. " I must thank you for helping the town. I have to give you a reward. I am going to arrange a massive banquet for the town tonight. Please join. I will give you supplies and ammo" says Riley. "Thanks. We would like to join" says Spencer. " Thanks. The banquet will start at 7pm. That is the earliest I can do on very short notice. Anyway, I will see you all there" says Riley.
