Chapter 28: FAR FROM GOOD!
Lee: Be on guard and watch where you step, a walker might be hiding nearby.
Joe: What could've done this?.
Lee: Maybe a Gorilla.
Mia: What's a Gorilla again?.
Lee: It's a mutated walker that possesses incredible strength.
Tommy: How do we kill a Gorilla.
Lee: You have to be stronger than it.
Joe: So headshots can't kill it?.
Lee: Nope.
The four walks up to the entrance of the building but the gates are locked, Joe takes out his equipment and started to cut the iron door when suddenly walkers started to appear from each side of the fence.
Lee: Mia watch Joe back.
Mia: Yes sir.
Lee: Tommy you take the one on the right and I'll take the ones on the left.
Tommy: Okay boss.
Lee: Joe how long will this take?
Joe: Four (4) to eight (8) minutes.
Lee: Okay...operation secure food begins.
"Okay here they come", said lee.
Mia: I don't think that we can take on so many walkers but we don't have a choice.
Tommy points his gun at the walkers while he trembles in fear.
Lee pats him on the shoulder and told him to get a grip.
A loud noise echoes throughout the entire area.
Lee: I know this sound.
Tommy: What do you mean by that?.
Lee: It means that I recognize that sound or voice.
Tommy: And what makes such a sound.
Joe: I'm guessing it's something bad...right?
Lee: A walker that can control other walkers with its screams, a walker that has incredible strength.
Joe: A mutated walker.
Lee: Right and not just any mutated walker but a GORILLA WALKER.
Mia: So we're screwed.
Tommy: Joe how long until you cut down that door?.
Joe: 5 minutes.
Mia: So we just have to hold off the mutated walker for five minutes...I think we can do that.
Lee: No, we have to kill it. If we just hold off until the gates open the walkers will follow us inside and we don't want that.
Joe: I understand.
Lee: Killing everything is our only option because if we try to run back over to where the truck is we will die.
Tommy: We can't go inside the factory and we can't go back to the truck.
Mia reloads her gun and started to shoot. Tommy got brave after seeing Mia like that and also started to fire at the walkers.
Mia looks up and saw something flying towards her, at first she thought it was a bird but when it got closer she realized that it was a walker. Tommy grabs her by the arm and pull her out of the way, the walker fall and broke its neck.
Tommy: Lee you didn't tell us about flying walkers.
Lee: There isn't a flying walker...Gorilla probably throw him at you guys.
Mia: I guess the incredible strength wasn't a joke.
Lee: No it's not...here it comes.
The Gorilla Walker finally appeared in front of lee and the others.
Tommy trembles in fear as he is unable to process what's going on in front of him.
"The gate is open Joe shouts out,
Lee: Everyone run back to the gate.
Lee and mia rush back towards the gate. Mia looks beside her and noticed that Tommy wasn't there, Mia stops and turn around slowly only to see that Tommy was still standing there not moving at all.
Mia: Lee Tommy is froze up.
Lee: shit.
The gorilla Walker attacks Tommy but lee was able to reach Tommy in time and block the attack with his sword.
Mia rushes back over to get Tommy and asked him if he was okay.
A few walkers approach Mia and Tommy slowly when suddenly one appears before the two. Frightened by the walker Mia was unable to do anything, a bullet flies by and hit the walker in the arm, The walker take a step backwards and Mia and Tommy were able to escape.
Mia: Thanks, Joe.
Joe: Get him out of here quickly...me and lee will handle these guys.
Lee: Just so you know that walker you just shot looks like a new mutated walker.
Joe: So it's not a bolt?.
Lee: No.
The gorilla Walker attacks lee and Tommy at once but they both got out of the way.
Joe: So what are we gonna call him.
Lee: mystery.
Joe: Seriously.
The new mutated walker attacks Joe from behind but lee was able to block it.
***MEANWHILE***
Mia: Tommy are you okay? We got to go and help lee and joe.
Tommy: I'm a coward and a fraud. I act like I'm a bad guy when I'm not.
Mia: it doesn't matter if you're tough or not but if your willing to help those in need.
Tommy: Lee must think I'm a joke.
Mia: Lee doesn't think that at all.
Mia continues to comfort Tommy while Lee and Joe fight for their lives.
***BACK TO LEE AND JOE***
The mystery walker kicks joe in the stomach and sends him flying into the gate.
Lee dashes towards the Gorilla Walker with full speed and force. The gorilla Walker attacks lee head-on but lee dodged it and cut off his head.
The mystery walker tried to punch Lee in the face but lee blocks it then cuts off the mystery walker arms.
Joe coughs up some blood and got up but Mia told him to sit back down. Mia took out her medical supplies and started to apply medical care to him.
Joe: Thanks, Mia.
Mia: no problem...
Joe: Where's Tommy?.
Mia: Killing the weaker walkers.
Joe: That's good.
Mia: Lee's awesome isn't he.
Joe: He sure is. He was able to kill the huge gorilla Walker with just one attack.
Mia: I think Lee got a few secrets.
Joe: Wanna know one.
Mia: Sure.
Joe: His left arm is robotic.
Mia: Stop joking.
***BACK TO LEE***
Tommy: Lee I'm sorry about before.
Lee: When did you reach over here? Are you feeling better now?.
Tommy: Yes sir.
Lee: Then everything is good.
Tommy: Lee...
Lee: Yes.
Tommy points at the mystery walker that lee had disabled.
The mystery walker had transformed into a two-headed walker.
Lee felt the air around him got cold and Tommy let out a soft sound. Lee looks around and saw the mystery walker stepping into Tommy's stomach.
Tommy cries out in pain and suffering, blood started to run from his mouth and eyes. The mystery walker kicks Tommy like a ball and lets out a roar which got the attention of all the walkers that were in the area.
Mia and Joe look forward only to see Tommy on the ground unconscious, Mia lets out a scream of sadness which got the attention of the mystery walker. It only took ten (10) seconds for it to appear before Mia and Joe.
Unable to do anything from far Lee told the two to hurry up and shoot. Joe picks up his gun and shoots the walker multiple times in one of its heads. The walker lower his head to Joe's face and lets out a roar, hundreds of walkers started to approach the factory.
Lee throws his sword and stabs the walker in the back of its head. The walker turns around and roars at lee, Lee run towards the walker then slides under the walker's foot and pick up Tommy gun which had dropped. Lee shoots the walker in the back of its right head five (5) times then pull out his sword.
The mystery walker lets out a sound like it was laughing.
Joe: Is this thing immortal?.
Joe: Let's hope not.
Mia helps Joe up and enters the factory with him.
Mia: Lee please be careful.
Lee: Careful is my middle name....now go.
Mia closes the door.
Lee let out a sigh and smiled at the mystery walker.
Lee: Now come at me.
