The Story (as it stands)
The Rapture



Introduction



Open with Travis and Art driving down the road returning from Wal-mart.

(car interior)
Art: That's all I needed to see tonight, dude, was fuckin Jaime and Daniel.
Travis: Yeah dude that sucks.
Art: What the fuck ever dude, lets just get back to your house before your mom gets pissed about us being gone so long.

(outside)
As the car drives down a wooded road,we see the mangled head of a deer.

(car interior)
Travis: It really sucks that you have to go back to South Carolina early
Art: Ya it does

(outside)
we see a tattered and rotting hand placed, by an unseen individual, on the mangled head

They drive by the deer without much knowledge

(car interior)
Art: what the hell was that man?
Travis: what?
Art: that dude was hunched over the deer.
Travis: and..
Art: and it looked like he was eating it
Travis: Oh ya man

The car pulls up to Travis' house, the two get out and head in.

Travis: Yo what do you wanna do man?
Art: um you wanna go outside?
Travis: sure dude
Travis: YO MOM WE'RE GONNA WALK AROUND OUTSIDE!
Dottie: Ok don't be too long

The two walk over to the local church

Art: hehe, its so creepy out here dude
Travis: hell ya man
Art: yo look at that red light in the window
Art: LIKE A FUCKIN GHOST!!
Travis: OOOOOO (waving his hands like a ghost)

The two walk around a bit. Till they notice a figure at the end of the road

Travis: wow that's creepy
Art: sure as hell is. Let's get the hell outta here

They walk back to Travis' house, in his room they both draw a sword to protect themselves

Art: that was weird
Travis: what was
Art: Ok dude you didn't see the guy and the deer? Or the guy at the end of the street?
Travis: yeah I did but wat the hell does it matter?
Art: didn't it seem kinda weird?
Travis: It was weird I'll give it that but its nothing to get worked up over man.
Art: ok man I guess I gotta get to bed so I can catch the bus back home.

(morning at bus stop)

Art boards the bus (looking depressed about the early departure), takes a seat and turns on his CD player.
After a bit of a drive he notices and eerie looking corn field (please add an additionally creepy scarecrow)
And in the corn field he sees what looks like a man lying on the ground being given CPR by another man,
The police cruiser that was next to the bus pulls over to assist. Art pays no more attention and lies back and continues to listen to his music.

Officer: Excuse me sir can I be of any assistance?
Officer: Sir? Excuse me Sir?
(hissing growls)

It is not until this point that we see that the man was not giving CPR, but was devouring the face of the man on the ground.

Officer: WHAT THE HELL?
Officer: SIR PLEASE GET DOWN ON THE GROUND AND PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK!!!

The man seems to pay no attention to the officer and continues to walk towards him.

Officer: SIR PLEASE STOP OR I WILL BE FORCED TO OPEN FIRE!!

Once more the man pays no attention and continues to walk forward

BLAM!!!

The officer fires a round into the mans leg and yet he continues to walk forward.

Officer: The hell?
Officer: PLEASE SIR, I WILL FIRE AGAIN!!

BLAM!!

The officer fires another round, and this time into the mans chest, with this the man lunges forward and knocks the officer to the ground. The officer struggles with the man BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! Three more rounds into the mans side and out his back, but it doesn't seem to have any effect, other than enraging the homicidal man even further. BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! CLICK! CLICK! CLICK!

Officer: OH GOD NO!!!!

The officer struggles free and tries to run only to be knocked back to the ground by the man with the devoured face.
Officer: SWEET JESUS CHRIST!!!!
Officer: AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But the officers cries are muffled by the oncoming men.


Back in Florida Travis is at his job in the local bakery.

All of a sudden two cars crash in front of the store, Travis runs out to see if he may help.
The two cars lay smashed together in a mangled pile of gore and glass. In the Cadillac, looking like it was dropped of a skyscraper, an old woman lay appearing to be dead.

Travis: Excuse me, are you ok?

The old woman lay not moving, ever so slightly Travis checks for a pulse, but to his dismay he doesnt find one.

Travis: oh shit I better call an ambulance

Just as he thinks this

Old woman: uunnnngph

Travis: oh, hey Ill...Ill call... Ill call the cops

With this Travis runs inside and behind the counter and calls the police.

DING DING

He hears the door open and turns around only to be face to face with the mutilated body of the old woman.

Travis: ho holy shit it's a zombie!!

The old woman starts moving towards him with a grim limp. In a combination of terror and self-preservation, he rips the phone from the wall and hurls it at the head of the creature, the phone bangs against the womans head and crashes to the floor. The beast is stunned, taking the opportunity, Travis runs like hell out the back..only to be greeted by a horrid sight. The other car. Two mangled corpses pulling themselves from the destroyed pickup, tearing limbs and bleeding copiously the two turn and look at Travis almost as if they could sense him.

Travis: dammit.I gotta call Art

Travis makes a mad dash to his car. The zombies are quick to follow, he reaches the door and is promptly attacked by the two demons.

Travis: No, no, no fucking no!!! Im not gonna die here and now, NO!!!!!!

With this Travis screams like a mad man and punches the zombie square in the face knocking it to the ground. Stunned by his own power the second creature throws itself on him, Travis fights it off with a great force, throwing the zombie off himself Travis runs to the car and slams the door shut. ((none of that cheap bullshit where the engine stalls, we both know how well your car runs)) He quickly drives home and tries to fathom how he will tell Art, and his family no doubt, about the three demons that he has seen.

CNN: Officials of the HSD said there were no indications that terrorists were responsible for an enormous power blackout that cascaded throughout the Northeast, the Midwest and eastern Canada late Thursday afternoon, knocking out electricity to millions of people in New York, Toronto, Detroit, Cleveland and elsewhere. Power slowly started returning to some areas Thursday evening, but federal power officials said it might not be fully restored until Friday morning. The event seemed to be going well until a number of citizens on the Manhattan bridge began attacking other civilians, we now go live to the bridge.

Reporter (shouting above screams): They are attacking!! There are a number there are over 30,000 civilians that have turned aggressive and are attacking everyone and everything in sight!!! The police have open fire but it seems to be having no effect what so ever.. Umm ok sir! Excuse me sir! May I talk with you?

Man: You have to run!!! Theyre killing everyone!!

Reporter: What do you mean??

Man: NO!! WE HAVE TO GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE!!!!!!!

With this the man runs off into the screaming horrified crowd

Reporter: The Bridge, turn to the bridge!!

The camera turns to the bridge and we see a horrid sight of death and mutilation.

Reporter: theyre coming this way!! RUN!!!!

The cameraman turns to run and the feed is cut.

CNN: We seem to be experiencing some difficulty..

We pan out to see Art and Geof watching CNN.

Art: did you see that man, it looked like, Zombies

Geof: Art, please, zombies?

Art: dude you heard the man, the cops were shooting at them like crazy and not doing any fucking damage.

Geof: ya that is weird, really weird.

KNOCK KNOCK!!!

Art: ?????

Geof: the hell?

Art looks out over the balcony and sees a man in a uniform banging on the door.

Art: Um, may I help you officer?

The officer says nothing and continues to bang on the door?

Art: thats strange

Geof: what is it?

Art: hes just banging on the door.

Geof: dont answer it Art

Art: heh dont worry about that I dont fuckin plan on it.

Art: ok he wont stop banging on the door go get us some swords dude, and hurry man

Geof: thank god dads in San Francisco, else he'd be throwing a fit.

BANG BANG SMASH!!!!!!!!!! The door flings open and the officer steps in. In the light Art can see his face, rotten.

Art: HAHAHAHAHA ITS A FUCKING ZOMBIE

Geof: what how can you laugh?

Art: just throw me the damn sword!!

Geof throws a sword to Art who turns to the zombie

Art: AAAHHHH!!!!!!!!

He howls like a demon and leaps down the stairs plunging the sword through the zombies head sending it to the ground.

Art: Geof put your armor on we gotta go!!

Geof: go?? You wanna go out there?

Art: did I stutter? Get your armor on, we cant stay here anymore, its a death trap!!

They put their armor on and gathered their weapons.

Art: you ready?

Geof: No

Art: sorry Geof but we gotta go, we have to get to Florida, we have to find Travis

Geof: ok, ok then lets go

They gathered their strength and set out the door, once out side they heard the far off screams of their neighbors.

Art: there Geof, the Suburban

Geof: ok you can drive it right?

Art: well it doesnt matter there probably arent any cops that would stop us seeing as how there are zombies walking the earth

Geof: you're right

They get in the car and drive for what seems to an eternity...they reach Forida at 3:45 in the morning.

Art: hey Geof we cant take on zombies with just swords man

Geof: ok, but where are we gonna find guns?

Art: you know what I'm talking about, let's stop by their house

Geof: Ok then lets go

They arrive at the Johnson's house but there seems to be no one home.

Art: no, no fuckin no

Geof: they're not home?

Art: fuck this I'm breakin in

Art smashes a window

Voice: hello?

Art: Matt?

Matt: Art thank god, what the hell is going on?

Art: Zombies man, Zombies

Matt: thats what I thought, that you Geoff?

Geof: hey, um we're here for guns matt

Art: ya man, we need guns, I gotta find Travis

Matt: fine man I'll open his safes but you gotta take me with you

Art: ok you got your Yukon out front so lets load'em up man

Matt unlocks the 6 safes revealing 6 AK-47s, 5 M-4s, 3 MP5s, 3 M249s, and 4 sniper rifles

Art: oh come on man your dads got more than this, what about that cellar that he told me about

Matt: the cellar?

Art: he was drunk one time and told me that there is a cellar in the backyard full of grenades and TOWs and HMGs

Matt: he told you about that cellar?

Geof: Come on Matt!! We need those guns!!

Matt: ok man bring the car around

Matt & Art pull open the door to the cellar

Art (grabs Matts arm): SWEET GOD MAN!!!!

Geof (mouth hanging open): Ive never seen that many guns

Matt: ya he loved buying guns

Art: Matt? Where is your family man?

Matt: I dont know man, havent seenem since they left for Michigan

Art: ok guys lets pack the shit up

After fifteen minutes of packing the various weapons (dont name'em so we can just make it up as we use them man) the three head out for Travis' house

Travis: Shit they keep coming

Travis slashes the face of another zombie as his mother and sister sit on the roof and watch as their father and brother and Amy fight off the demons

Bud: Travis watch yourself that one almost got you!

Travis: dammit dad keep your eye on those things

Amy: Shit theyre unrelenting

The three of them continue to fight of the onslaught, hacking and slashing at the creatures. The zombies begin to close in

Amy: Travis look out!!!!

Travis turns to see a zombie lurch right in his face, he struggles and sticks a knife through its face, another one yet takes the opportunity to grab Amy and pull her away

Travis: AMY NO!!

Amy: HELP!!

Travis runs toward her but is pulled to the ground by one of the creatures, he immediately begins kicking it in the face till it lets go but it is too late, the zombie knocks her to the ground and goes for he neck. Travis runs forward to save her

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTT thud

The zombie falls to the ground filled with bullets

Voice: HIT THE GROUND!!!

BBBBRRRTTTTTT BBBBBRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTT BBBBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRTTTTTT

The firing continues, destroying every demon in sight

BBBRRRTTTTTT POW POW POW POW POW BLAM BLAM

Its silent, the firing stops and the three look up to see their saviors

Travis: Art?

Art: Hey man, everyone ok?

Travis: oh shit Amy!

Travis runs to Amy and picks her up in his arms and carries her over to the house

Travis: Art come here

Art throws bud an AK-47

Art: Here Bud Take this and stand out here with Matt, Geoff get them off the roof

Geof: ok

Art follows Travis into the house, Travis lays Amy down on the couch

Travis: She'll be ok, she's just unconscious

They give each other a hug

Art: how's it been man

Travis: they started attacking 9 hours ago

Art: ya the same happened up in South Carolina

Travis: dude we have to go after them, they tried to kill her man

Art: don't worry we'll kill them, well hunt them down like fuckin animals, ok man I have plenty of guns and a trailer full of shit

Travis: good lets go by Publix and grab some food

Travis: good job man, for once your prepared

Art: haha ya it takes zombies killing everyone for me to get prepared and orderly

Travis: so what do we do now?

Art: well I say that we find a place that we can use as a temporary base, any ideas?

Travis: Umm what about sears town mall?

Art: I kinda meant something not on the gorund

Travis: no I know man, we can go up on the roof, We can go by Wal-Mart and see if there are any tents left

Art: good idea man, Matt and your dad can take your mom, sister, and Amy to the roof and wait there

Travis: are you sure they will be ok?

Art: ya man they have enough weapons, you, me, and Geof will go to Wal-Mart to get tents and other camping gear

Travis: ok lets get going I dont want to waste anymore time

Art: ok bud you take Amy, Dottie, and Naysa over to the Sears town mall

Art: your going with them, make sure nothing happens to them

Travis: ya you better keep an especially close eye on Amy

Matt: what about Gabby?

Art: Matt we'll have to go for her when we get the base set up, now let's get going

The group pack into there separate vehicles and head out. Art and his group arrive at Wal-Mart, as they pull up they can see a group of men kicking a black man on the ground

Man #1: you damn nigger!! You killed my brother!!!!

Travis: Art we gotta do something

Art: ok dude, wait before you go out Trav you need some armor, Geof give him his armor

Travis: armor?

The three men make an advance towards Art

Travis: You fuckin go or ill shoot you too!!

Man #1: Lets go, let those things get'em

The two leave and the three are alone again.

Geof: ok lets go see if that black dude is ok

Travis: Hey you ok?

Art lifts the man to his feet

Sam: thanks a lot, they would have killed me if you didnt come along

Travis: why were they attacking you?
Sam: I killed a zombie in Wal-Mart and I heard someone screaming "that dirty nigger killed him" then someone came up behind me and hit me over the head, when I came to they were standing over me

Art: ok well this is Travis, thats Geof, and Im Art

Sam: Im Sam

Art: Its nice to meet you

Sam: ya the same to you, wait um what are you doing here

Travis (Whispering to Art): Should we tell him?

Art: ya man we're helping all the people that can help us

Travis: sounds good, ok Sam, we're establishing a base on top of the sears town mall

Art: Oh shit we need to hurry, we don't want them to be there alone for too long

Sam: ok let's go then

Travis: yo heres an M-4

Art: ok we stay together and well be fine no splitting up or leaving the group or Ill leave you here, even you Geof

Geof: dont worry I think we'll all stay together

The group go into the building in search of there goods

Art: Travis which way are the tent

Travis: they changed the store around, they should be this way guys

Sam: ya they're down this isle

They reach the isle Sam and Travis stand guard at each end of the isle

Art: Lets grab the big ones Geof

Geof: ok I just dont know how many I can carry

Travis: its ok we can all grab one

Art: wont be enough tents, here Geof carry my gun, I can carry 4

Travis: just dont hurt yourself man

Art: wait I almost forgot

Sam: what

Sam leads them over to sporting goods where they proceed to smash open the cases and take the guns

Geof: that should help but how are we gonna get it all the shit outta here?

Travis: Ill be right back

Travis runs out but quickly returns

CRASH!!

Art: LOOK OUT!!!

Sam, Geof, and Art dive out of the way as Travis drives the huge suv into the store

Sam: damn that was a little dangerous wasnt it?

Travis: Grab the shotgun ammo and the tents and lets go!!

Geof: what is it?

Art: shit.ZOMBIES!!

Travis: hurry and pack up!

The four hurriedly pack up the Suburban

Geof: ok done lets go!

Art: oh shit wait

Travis: what is it??

Art: toss me a gun and get me at the front!

Travis guns the SUV towards the front and stops

Travis: dammit what is he doing

In less than a minute Art shows around a shelf

Art: OK LETS GET OUT OF HERE!!!

Art jumps in the front passenger seat ad Travis peels out running over numerous zombies on the way out

Back at the mall Matt and Bud moved up on the roof and everyone was waiting

Amy: does anybody see them?

Bud: nothing over here

Matt: same here

Naysa: LOOK LOOK!!!

Bud: thank god theyre back

Amy: that took way too long

Travis drives right up into the parking lot and the four pile out

Art: MATT!! BUD!!! COME GIVE US A HAND, Geof grab that duffel bag of guns and run it up there, you too Sam

Sam & Geof: Ok!

Travis: man that was an event

Art: true

Amy: TRAVIS!! YOUR BACK!!!

Art: obviously

Travis: ill take these two tents up

Art: ok

Matt and Bud get down just as Travis is going up

Matt: you get the tents?

Art: ya and a few shot guns a shit load of ammunition and a new friend, him, Sam

Bud: Nice to meet you sam

Sam: thanks, same to you, sorry I have to get this stuff up

Art: hey Bud whats up with the corrugated metal all over the mall?

Bud: dont know it was here when we got here

Matt: it must have been put up for protection but I think the people left a while ago

Art: well if theres metal up we can leave the cars inside

Travis and Amy meet in an embrace and share a very passionate kiss

Amy: oh thank god your back it felt like an eternity

Travis: I was so scared, I was scared that you all wouldnt be safe without us

Amy: not we didnt have any problems getting over here

Art (yelling from the ground): HEY TRAVIS GET THE TENTS SET UP!

Travis: OK!!

Amy: You want me to give ya a hand?
Travis: ya sure

Amy and Travis try setting up a tent but it only leads to further hugging and kissing leaving the tent tangled and a mess

Art and the others get on the roof with a plethora of equipment and food

Art: well Happy Halloween everyone!

That night everyone sets up the tents and gets ready for a long and hard journey. Amy paints Travis' face like that of the Crows'. None feel like they should be celebrating the holiday given the already morbid situation, but secretly this is what Art and Travis always wanted to happen.

Geof: Im getting tired guys I think Im gonna head into my tent

Art: ok, oh hey Matt dont forget your standing guard first

Matt: ya I know

Dottie: I think Im going to sleep too

Bud: Ill join you, come on Naysa

Naysa: ok

Art: I think I'm gonna stay up with Matt

Travis: ya me too, we need to talk anyway

Amy: mmmm, not me Ill be in the tent honey (or whatever she calls you)

Art: we need to get these guns mounted in the corners guys

Travis: ok

Travis and Art take an M249 and a gun mount and bolt it to the furthest corner and the same on the opposite side

Travis: ok dude thats it, well Im off to bed and thanks man, for everything

Art: no problem we're practically family, you would have done the same for me

Travis: ya, I would, well goodnight man

Travis heads into his tent leaving Art and Matt alone on the hallowed roof

Matt: so whats in store for us?

Art: I dont know, I just dont know

Matt: well you better think of something, theyll be up soon and theyll want to know what to do

Art: I know

Matt: bud will probably want to take his family to a safe location

Art: this is it, this is the safe location

Matt: well.. its safe now, but in time it wont be we'll need to reinforce it

Art: and the vehicles

Sam: maybe I can help with that

Art: oh hey I thought you were in bed

Sam: no, but I have some experience with welding and the like

Art: well do either of you know where we can find some steel to bold and weld on?

Sam: hmm, no sorry man

Art: THS? Why?

Matt: theyre all in the automotives shop room

Art: ok then lets go get it

Sam: now??

Matt: why not its not like we're gonna get in trouble

Art walks over to Travis and Amy's tent

Art: Travis, psst. hey travis

Travis: nnnnnnngh

Art: yo dude we're heading over to THS we'll be back in about and hour

Travis: what? Umm ok

Art: you need to stand guard man

Travis: ok

Amy: whats going on?

Travis: nothing babe Art's going over to THS

Amy: why now?

Travis: I don't know, he said it would take about an hour

Amy: god, I'll go with ya

Travis and Amy arm themselves (M-4s with scopes and silencers)

Travis: yo Art take this with ya

Travis tosses a walkie talkie to Art

Art: cool

Travis: now listen if I call for ya you better get your ass back here ASAP

Art: you got it

Art, Matt, and Sam take the two vehicles over to the local high school for the sheets of steel. On the way there the road is covered with bodies some alive some dead.

Art: Jesus

Matt: ditto

Art: theres the school

Matt: Look at all those people...err..zombies

Art: they must have not been able to make it out in time

Matt: ya

Art: well time to go to work

Art pulls the car around and rams the gate down

CRASH!!

Sam follows through the gate and parks beside Art

Art: ok we're in, get in the shop and get the torches gas cans and the metal

Matt: I'll get the metal, OH SHIT LOOK OUT ART!!

Art spins around just in time to blow that head off a zombie and then jumps up on the hood

Art: ok get the stuff in the cars quick!!

Sam: damn this shit is heavy

BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BBBRRRRTTTT BBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTT BBBBBBRRRTTTTT

Travis and Amy can hear the gun fire from the roof

Amy: man I hope they're ok

Travis: I know Art can handle himself

Back at the shop room Matt and Sam load on the last load of metal

Matt: ok its all loaded up

Art: It doesn't really matter cuz they're surrounding us

POW POW POW POW POW POW BBBRRRRTTTTT BBBRRRRRTTTTTTTT

Matt ad Sam fire wildly into the crowd of the dead, Art gets in the first car, guns the engine and plows down the first wave of the undead

Art: GUYS GET THE FUCK IN THE CAR AND LETS GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE

Matt: SAM LETS GO!!

Travis notices a change in the pace of their firing

Travis: I think they're coming

Amy: yup there they are, and look!

Travis to Art (over walkie talkie: well what kept you guys?)

Art: (Hahahaha.....shut up!)

Travis: goddamn there has to be at least 300 of them

Amy: at least

Art ( over the walkie talkie): Travis we're coming in but I need you to pick off a couple of them till we're far enough away, then use a TOW

Travis: you got it man

Travis looks through the scope on his M-4 and squeezes the trigger

BRRRACK! BRRRACK BRRRACK BRRRACK BRRRACK

Travis: That's it for the one's closest to them, and now for the grand finale.

Art (over the walkie talkie): ok man we're far enough, fire away!

Amy aims toward the crowd of the zombies and fires

PHOOOOSH!!!! SSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHH BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM!

Art (over the walkie talkie): nice shot

Art, Matt, and Sam arrive at their haven just as another wave swarms the building

Bud: what the hell was that?

Travis: DAD GEOF GET THE HELL OUT HERE AND HELP US!!!!

Geof: what is it?

Travis: zombies are swarming, we have to annihilate them before they cut off Art and the others

Geoff mans one of the M249s and fires like a mad man

(Just taking a crack at it)

The whining of bullets drowned everything out but the sound of their own heartbeats. As the guns showered the undead, the group on the roof for the first time, really noticed that this was not going to be easy.

Travis: They're not afraid.

Amy: What?

Travis: Look at them, their faces, they're not afraid of us at all.

Amy: Heh, I guess they just dont want to give you the satisfaction.

Travis: Hahaha, yeah great sense of reasoning there babe. (Smile fading, looking down at the undead horde in disgust.) Theyre dead. Theyre all just fucking dead (looks at Amy and smiles) All I have to do is remind them of that.

(Art, Matt, and Sam are nearing on the building fast.)

(Travis knowing this, needed a plan.)

Travis: Did we get any medical supplies?

Amy: Yeah they left them over there.

(Travis walks over to them, shortly thereafter producing a half smile)

Travis says to self: Like we'll need any of this stuff.

(Camera joins up with Art and crew in the vehicle)

Art: Well well, I don't believe we invited THEM to our little party!
(Over walkie talkie) Travis, wont you show our guests to the door?

Travis: Already there my friend!!! (Looks at Amy, his Dad, Mom, and Naysa, saying Now remember, not till I give the word ok? Runs up to the door quickly, looking very serious and dramatic, stops, looks outside at the massive group of zombies outside, now knowing that fresh meat is closer than ever with him standing there...Travis: ( Over walkie talkie to the group on the roof.) Ok, here's the word (Camera switches to the group up top waiting and listening) then Travis makes a face and sticks his tounge out at the horde outside going. Nah nah nah nah NAAH NAHHHH. (The camera focuses on the closest zombie, looking as confused as a zombie can be, and grunts once.) Then the camera pans back quickly as that zombie is engulfed in flames as the roof crew throw maltov cocktails on the group of undead below. More and more of them catch on fire, screaming their zombie screams.)

Travis yelling outside: HAHA FUCK YOU!

The three drive they're vehicles through the crowd smashing and demolishing the beasts.

Art: damn we cant open the door and risk letting all these zombies in

Art tries to think of a plan but has a hard time doing so while trying to navigate through the multitude of
the creatures

Art (over walkie talkie): Matt follow me we need to drive them away from the door
Matt (over walkie talkie): ok

The three pull around to the farthest side of the Mall, they proceed to get out and arm themselves
(Matt ahs a broad sword, Sam has a long sword, and I have to axes)

Art: you two ready

Sam: this is a little dangerous isnt it

Matt: I think it's necessary, we have to keep them away from the door

Art: Ya if they get in everyone will surely die

Travis and Geof, fully armed (You have a the two katanas, both on your waist and a wakizashi on your back on the waist, Geof has a spear and a long sword on his back) and suited up, join the three in the parking lot

Travis: god theyre gonna swarm us

Geof: I take it we're gonna fight them?

Art: you took it right

Travis: I told Dad and Amy to shoot any that aren't too close to us

Matt: well

Sam: Im ready

Matt: Im ready

Geof: so am I

Travis: Lets put these bastards back in the ground

Art: Thats more like it guys

Sam: should we like pray or something?

Travis: sounds reasonable

Art: ok but lets make it quick

The Five bow their heads

Art: Bravery calls my name, and my Blade will feast upon your flesh

As they Five look up they see the dead coming at them in a frightening number

Art: ATTACK!!!!!!!!!!

Geof lunges forward catching a zombie in the chest causing it to convulge and fall to the ground dead

Travis: you see that

Geof: didnt even have to get him in the head
Art: nothing to be afraid of

With this the Five dash into the crowd swinging and chopping.

Art: THIS IS TOO EASY!

Art flails about like a madman hacking into the foreheads of the undead attackers. One makes a move toward his back and Travis cuts it off at the neck

Travis: DONT EVEN TRY THAT SHIT

Art: THANKS MAN!

Meanwhile Amy and Bud are on the roof blasting the demons from a safe distance.

Amy: I hope they dont do anything stupid!

Bud: Anything more stupid than this? There cant be anything more stupid than this! Theyre gonna get themselves killed!!

Back one the ground Geof, Travis, & Art have formed a sort of fighting triangle

Geof: ALL OF A SUDDEN THIS ISNT THAT EASY

Geof throws his spear into the abdomen of another zombie, grabs the end of his weapon and kicks the beast off. Travis thrusts his katana into the head of a zombie

Travis: THATS 15!!

Geof: I HAVE 10!!

Art: 16!

Meanwhile Matt and Sam guard the front door to the building, Matt smashes the face of a zombie wide open and punches it away

Matt: DIE!!!

Sam leaps forward and kills another then pulls away and swings back and sends yet another back to hell

Sam: I KNOW IVE KILLED ATLEAST 30!

Matt: IVE KILLED 40, IVE HAD TO!

Matt destroys one after another

Matt: THEY WONT STOP COMING!!

Sam: THEYRE NEVER GONNA STOP!!!

We go back to the Three, fighting to what seems the bitter end. A zombie jumps on Geof and Art sends his axe into its head

Art: STAY OFF MY BROTHER!!

Geof gets back to his feet and pulls out his sword, sending the tip through the belly of another creature
Geof: DAMMIT THEY WONT STOP!!!

Art: WE'RE NOT GONNA DIE!!!

Art pulls his axe out of the zombie's head and sends it yet again into another

Travis: DIE YOU BASTARDS!!!!!!!!!!!

At this point Travis has both Katanas in each hand, killing each zombie that comes in close range

Amy (over walkie talkie): THERES MORE COMING FROM THE DIRECTION OF THS!!!

Travis: OH SHIT

Art: WHAT?

Travis: AMY SAID THERES A BUNCH MORE HEADED IN THIS DIRECTION!!

Art: DAMMIT NO!!!

Travis stabs one in the back, kicks another to the ground, and shoves his sword into its abdomen

Travis: WE CANT FIGHT THEM FOREVER!!!!!

Art: WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO!!!

Geof: IM NOT RUNNING!!!!

Art throws his axe into the face of his attacker, spins around and plants his other axe into the temple of another zombie. He turns to retrieve his other axe and comes face to face with another zombie which leaps on him, grabbing his throat and throttling him violently

Art: A LITTLE HELP! PLEASE!!!!!!

Geof turns and chops violently at the back of the beast

Art: I OWE YOU!!

Meanwhile Matt and Sam furiously fight off the horde in what seems to be a vain effort

Sam: I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH LONGER I CAN DO THIS!!!

Matt: WE HAVE TO KEEP FIGHTING!! WE HAVE TO!!

Matt stabs another while Sam gouges another in the chest only to be attacked again. Matt kills Sam's attacker only to be attacked in return

Matt: SAM!! HELP!!

Sam turns to see two zombies biting Matt. He quickly lunges forward and kills the first and spins and slices the head off the second.

Sam: YOU OK?

Matt: IM FINE, THEY JUST GOT THE ARMOR

Art, Geof, & Travis quickly run over towards Matt and Sam

Art: YOU GUYS NEED HELP?

Matt: SHUTUP AND FIGHT!!

The Five form a semi circle around the door keeping it safe from the dead. Back on the roof Amy and Bud continue firing upon the multitude of the undead. Bud Runs over to grab a TOW

Amy: what are you doing? We have to help them

Bud: we have to shoot the ones coming down the street!

Amy: ok!

Amy and Bud fire the TOWs into the approaching mass of the next wave

FOOOOOOOOSH FOOOOOOOOOSH SSSSSSSHHHHHHHH BOOOM BOOOM

AGAIN!!

FOOOOOOOOSH FOOOOOOOOOSH SSSSSSSHHHHHHHH BOOOM BOOOM

AGAIN!!!

FOOOOOOOOSH FOOOOOOOOOSH SSSSSSHHHHHHHH BOOOM BOOOM

The missiles cut into the oncoming crowd destroying nearly 20 each time

Keep firing!!

Art: WHAT ARE THEY DOING??

Travis: THE OTHER CROWD MUST BE CLOSE IF THEYRE ALREADY SHOOTING THEM!!

Geof: OTHER CROWD?

Travis: THERES MORE COMING

Matt: GODDAMIT NO!!

Sam: WE'RE NOT GOING TO SURVIVE

Art: YES WE ARE!!! KEEP FIGHTING!!

Back up in their tent Dottie and Naysa hold each other

Naysa: mommy Im scared!!

Dottie: I know honey it will be ok, god is watching over us, he wont let anything bad happen to us

Art (over walkie talkie): YO BUD SEND SOME GUNS DOWN!!!

Bud (over walkie talkie): YOU GOT IT!!

As the Five continue to fight off the horde Bud lowers some AK-47s and M4s down on rope

One by one the five collect their guns and proceed to fire willingly into the huge mass of zombies

Art (over walkie talkie): SEND DOWN SOME AMMO

Amy lowers ammunition down in buckets

Travis (yelling over gun fire): THIS IS MUCH BETTER!!

Geof: THEY KEEP COMING!!!! WHAT THE HELL???

Art and Travis fire to the right, Geof fires up the middle, while Matt and Sam fire to the left

Sam: THIS ISNT GOOD!! THERES TOO MANY OF THEM!!

Art: I KNOW JUST KEEP IT UP!!

By this time the pile of bodies has created almost a kind of wall making it difficult for the undead to reach them. All of a sudden Sams gun backfires, spraying gunpowder into his face

Sam: GOD MY EYES!!

Art: GEOF GET HIM INSIDE

Travis: BUT WE NEED EVERYONE OUT HERE

Art: HES NO GOOD IF HE CANT SEE!!! GEOF GET HIM IN NOW!!!

Geof: OKAY! OKAY!

Geof pulls Sam through the door and quickly shuts it behind himself. Once inside Geof stands Sam up and leads him to the roof.

Amy: What happened to him?

Geof: His guns backfired I think hes temporarily blind

Amy: lets clean it off and get a bandage on his face!

At the door Art, Travis, & Matt continue to fight off the horde.

Matt: I THINK THIS IS IT!!

Travis: IT?? IT WAS IT AN HOUR AGO!!!

Art: SHUTUP AND SHOOT DAMMIT!!

The Horde moves in closer, and just as things seem the worst..

Voice: KILL THEM ALL!!!!!!!!

Art: the hell?

On the roof Geof, Amy, & Bud can see a group of about 100 people running in towards the crowd

Voice: SEND THEM BACK TO HELL!!!!!!
Matt: Who are they?

Art: HELP, THEYRE HELP

The Leader of the group fights his way towards the door, he wears the armor of a samurai.

Art: WHO THE HELL ARE YOU??

Leader: THAT IS NOT IMPORTANT NOW ART!

Travis: WAIT, YOU KNOW HIM?

Leader: I DO, BUT WE HAVE TO KILL ALL THESE CREATURES FIRST!

Art: AGREED!!

The Three, along with their new companion, draw their weapons and charge into the seemingly endless horde of the undead. The group fights for what seems to be an eternity, until finally.

Art: WE'RE WINNING!!

On the roof Geof and Amy man the .30 CALs unloading all of their rounds into the crowd

Amy: THEYRE ALL ALMOST GONE!!

Art: ONLY 60 LEFT!!

Travis: 60? THATS ALL??? YES! FUCKING YES!!!!!!

The Four continue to fight and kill another 20 until the Leader of the new group stops and turns to Art

Leader: my men will take care of the rest, lets head up

Art: No wait, first, who are you?

The Leader removes his mask

Art: Chris?

Art gives his friend a big bear hug

Art: I thought you were in Japan?

Chris: I was, I am visiting.well I guess now Im here to stay

Art: I guess

Travis: Lets get the hell on the roof

Art: ok

The four make their way onto the roof

Geof: CHRIS?!?!

Chris: Geoffrey? What the hell are you doing here?

Art: what? I wasnt gonna just leave him in South Carolina

After talking for awhile Art gives Chris and a few of his men a tour of their roof base

Chris: this is some set up you guys have up here

Art: ya we just got it put together like yesterday I think

Travis: ya thats right

Amy: OH THANK GOD YOUR OK!

Travis and Amy run into each others arms

Travis: its all right, its over. ART!

Art: YA?

Travis: WE'RE GOING INTO OUR TENT MAN!

Travis and Amy head into their tent

Chris: whos that?

Art: Thats Amy, Travis' girlfriend

Chris: Cool. So you guys have any food?

Art: We have MREs. HAHAHAHAHA, we have plenty of MREs

Chris: It doesnt matter my men are hungry

Art: your men?

Chris: People I have helped. You know, they follow me now and help me like I helped them

Art: Ok, then I guess you could say that everyone here are my men

Chris: well if you let us stay here, where its safe, Ill let you take control of them all

Art: sounds reasonable, but for now lets get everyone rested and taken care of

Chris: OK ALL OF MY MEN REPORT TO THE ROOF FOR FOOD AND BEDS!!!!

The sound of people cheering & hooting can be heard below in the parking lot.

Art: oh man I forgot about the cars! Matt lets get the cars inside!!

Matt: OK!

Art looks at Chris

Art: Want to help?

Chris: sure man

Art, Chris, & Matt head out to the vehicles left earlier in the morning.

Art: shit the windows are all knocked out!!

Chris: that sucks

Matt: lets just get them inside and worry about it later

After driving the vehicles into the Mall and head back up on the roof Art and Chris talk more about the recent happenings.

Chris: So do you know what the hell happened

Art: other than I got my wish? No

Chris: Wish? The hell are you talking about?

Art: I always wanted something like this to happen you, Travis, & Geoff all wanted this to happen too, maybe not as much as me

Chris: so other than your wish you dont know?

Art: what should I know?

Chris: well so far they think it was a meteor...but I dont think it was

Art: Why?

Chris: It just seems inane that a meteor could cause this to happen

Art: well...maybe we'll find out why this is happening, after all we do have a long long time

Chris: ya, ok lets get some food

Chris and Art head into the Storage tent to get some food and a hot drink, they talk some more and reminisce about the old days of sitting around and playing video games, after they finish eating Art instructs half of the new men to stand watch and the other half to rest and switch out every five hours.
After about an hour on the watch men approaches Art

Watchman: ummm

Chris: SIR

Watchman: uh, ya, sir there are a number of creatures heading this way

Art: how much is a number?

Watchman: Approximately 300

Art: we have plenty of weapons and ammunition you may take what you need

Chris: just dont fuck up rob

Watchman: YES SIR um er..SIRS!!

The watchman runs off to give the order to dispatch the zombies

Art: its been an hour and theyre still coming wave after wave.

Chris: itll be okay

Art: no I know, its just a bit annoying you know? Hey why dont you go get some sleep?

Chris: where?

Art: My tent, the biggest one, there are plenty of cots in there...well at least enough for five people

Chris: where did you get them?

Art: Wal-Mart

Chris: you think there are anymore?

Art: ya plenty

Chris: send like 6 men over there to get some more

Art: okay

Art calls one of the watchmen over.

Watchman: yes?

Art: I want you to find 6 men who will go over to the local Wal-Mart and pick up all the other tents

Watchman: YES SIR!

The watchman leaves and in five minutes comes back with 8 men

Art: I said six but this will be fine

Watchman: the other two have something to share with you Sir

Art: And what might that be?

Man #1: We Are both officers with the TPD

Art: and?

Man #2 : We would like to re turn to the department to retrieve all the weapons

Art: what types of weapons?

Man #2: mainly M4A1s and shotguns, a few MP5s and about 80 lockers full of armor

Art: okay when the group returns with the tents, oh and try to gather as many medical supplies as you possibly can, then they will take you two to retrieve the weapons, ammunition, and armor

Man #1: thank you

Chris: ok you six have your orders take one of the trucks, preferably the one with the trailer and get those tents and supplies

Men: YES SIR!!

The Six men leave for Wal-Mart and Chris heads to the tent to get as much sleep as he can

Matt walks up to Art

Matt: what about Gabby?

Art: sorry I forgot

Matt: ya well I havent, lets go get her now!

Art: ok grab a few guns and a couple men

Matt: thanks Art

Art: be sure to radio in if you get in any kind of trouble

Matt: you got it, you should get some sleep man you look like shit

(scratches his head) Art: ya I know

Matt walks off and can be heard giving orders to some of the men, he then walks back buy carrying a shotgun followed by three armed men

Art: good luck

Matt: Ill be right back

Matt walks down into the building and soon the sound of a car driving off can be heard

Art (thinking to himself): man I need to get some sleep

Art gets up slowly and walks towards his tent but it is interrupted...

Girl: excuse me? Um can you help me?

Art: yes what is it?

Girl: My little brothers need beds and clothes

Art: let me see what I can do

Girl: are you the one that saved that man from the racists?

Art: well it wasnt just me my brother and Travis helped too

Girl: Well you match the description they gave us

Art: what description? And to whom?

Girl: Chris found them after the y had killed these black kids, Chris asked how many more they had killed, they said it would have been more if you hadnt got in the way.
Chris asked who they were talking about and they told us about how you had killed one of them earlier, his brother I think

Art: What did he do?

Girl: he killed them

Art: I should have when I had the chance

Girl: dont concern yourself with it

Art: how do you know Chris?

Girl: I dont, but he saved my brothers and me, we owe our lives to him

Art: I see, well Ill look into getting those beds for you

Girl: thank you

The Girl walks off into one of the storage tents and Art continues into his

Chris: Alaura

Art: what?

Chris: you meant to get her name, its Alaura

Art: ok thanks, but I wasnt thinking that

Chris: whatever

Art lies down in his bed and falls asleep. Meanwhile Travis leaves his tent unable to sleep

Travis: Im gonna walk around a bit babe

Amy: mmk

Travis walks around for about 2 hours thinking of all that has happened over the past 4 days, he is soon joined by Art and Chris

Travis: You cant sleep either?

Chris: no we cant

Art: he woke me up

Travis: so what are we gonna do Art?

Art: ME??

Chris: ya your kinda the leader now

Art: ok, well, you see those two buses over there?

Travis: ya

Art: I want four men to get them and bring them here

Chris: for what use?

Art: to bring people here

Travis: good idea man, but we dont have anymore cars they both were taken out

Art: then send 8 to get 8 more cars, preferably trucks and SUVs, and send the 4 for the buses

Chris: ill get the men together

Art: ok, Travis get 3 men which sniper rifle right here to watch over the four till they get to the buses

Travis: will do

Travis brings back 3 men armed with MI 82A1s

Art: ok I want you there, you here, and you over there

Men: Yes sir

As the three snipers setup one of the watchman walk over to Art

Watchman: SIR! The group is back with the tents and supplies

Art: good let the officers know they can get their gear from the station

Watchman: YES SIR!

The watchman leaves and informs the officers that it is their time to leave

Travis: the men are ready to get the vehicles

Art: ok send them out, you three watch over the four going for the buses you got it?

Snipers: YES

Art: Travis let me know if anything happens

Travis: ok

Art walks over to the furthest edge of the roof where, there doesnt seem to be anyone around. He looks over the edge and can see a few corpses scattered on the ground.
