Visit From a Zombie…

I have had very little rest after the run in with the leader Zombie in the story a few days ago, but alas I was to have no chance for rest. I was lucky though and decided today to do some rethinking on my weapons that I am using. I also decided to rethink my clothing…

So I made a trip to the local shopping establishments. I got snakebite proof boots, hunter’s canvas pants, a leather long sleeve pull over shirt, a long trench coat and some new weapons. The weapons consisted of a new machete and a trench knife…

I also picked up some special claw boots for Dogg with titanium claws. He is out back digging with them now as I write this. I can tell he likes them… 🙂

I realized that I need a little more protection now that it is starting to look like the number of Zombies is increasing. But that is all minor in comparison to what was waiting for me when Dogg and I got home from shopping for our toys…

So to get back to the gist of the article: When Dogg and I got home from shopping. Dogg was upset as he stood by the front door waiting for me to unlock it. He was sniffing the door where it meets with the frame. I put the key into the lock and realized that the door was unlocked…

I stopped what I was doing and pulled the new machete out of the case it was in and the trench knife out of the box. I then laid the rest of the stuff on the front porch of the house. I opened the door and allowed Dogg to go in and find what was wrong or better yet who was there…

I walked in slowly and could feel a problem but nothing seemed disturbed. Dogg was upstairs running from room to room and I was downstairs checking each room. I then heard Dogg growl and I took off for the upstairs. Dogg was in the last bedroom down the hall. I quickly entered the bedroom and flipped the light on. That is when I froze in place. For standing in the center of the room, was a small child that obviously was a Zombie? It was a graveyard raised Zombie. It had glazed eyes and was grey pallor in color. That is the normal color of the embalmed undead. She looked to be very old and I realized that she most likely was from the graveyard that was located in a small wood near my house. It was a place that has been set aside to preserve a graveyard from the 1800’s…

Those made me realize that a source code Zombie is around the area. For they are the only ones that can bring the long dead back to life and all they have to do is walk through a graveyard. Other words in a huge graveyard you could have hundreds of Zombies wandering looking for tasty humans to eat…

What I could not figure out by looking at the little Zombie was how she got into the house. She is obviously a risen dead from a long ago death. That is when the hair on the back of my neck stood up and Dogg at the same time realized that something was behind us. The little Zombie was a plant for putting us off guard. I told Dogg to get the little Zombie and I turned 180 degrees around. I saw a fast flash at the door way of the bedroom. Something ran from me and it was fast…

I left Dogg to kill the little Zombie and I ran out into the hallway to see a man of about 25 years old standing at the top of the stairs. He was dressed in t-shirt and blue jeans. He was barefooted and was pale blue in color with sharp green eyes and brown hair. I could see the thoughts in his eyes at what he should do. Attack me or run…

Then something made up his mind and he came straight at me at full speed. I had just enough time to react and that reaction was pathetic at best. With my arms up to block him he proceeded to slam into me and pushed me through the wall at the end of the hallway right into the bathroom that was located there. I dropped the machete but of course I had a trench knife that was on my hand. I watched him pull a long thick splinter out of his face from the broken wall and his face healed instantly. I knew that my wounds were bad as I started to feel blood seeping around me. My blood on the floor made the Zombies eyes glaze over for a second. That is what happens when a Leader Zombie smells blood. The Zombie instinct takes over and becomes stronger than the human side of them…

I realized my one chance and stabbed him with the trench knife right in the chest. I then twisted the blade back and forth trying to do as much damage as I could. I had to get him off of me before he bit me. He recoiled at the brutal assault that I assailed upon him. Being that he has so much human in him it had to have hurt…

He stood up and tripped over the opening that we had made in the wall. I got up with machete in hand and cut his arm off as he used it to block my blow with. He grabbed his arm and pushed with his legs against the wall and scooted himself out of my immediate reach. He then attached the arm back in place and in a second it was like he never had an injury…

His eyes unglazed and I could see fire smoldering behind the lenses. He got up and came at me again. This time I was ready though and met him with a charge of my own with trench knife in his guts that doubled him over and then sever the spinal column in his back with the machete. I knew that would not stop him long. So I proceeded to start chopping for all I was worth. I had to get his body cut in half before he could pull away. Then I had to separate the two halves of his body. I could then kill him a lot easier…

I realized that I was very lucky that this Zombie was a non-combat trained Zombie because I would be history right now it he could fight…

He grabbed my legs as I finished cutting him in half. He had a simple thought at this point. Just bite me is what he wanted to do. So I was far from safe. Dogg had finished what he was doing to the little Zombie and walked out into the hallway. Dogg evaluated the situation and bit into the back of the neck of the Zombie. I heard those razor sharp titanium teeth crunch down upon bone…

Dogg was trying to drag the upper half of the Zombie away from me, but the Zombie would not let go of my legs. Then Dogg let go of the back of his neck and the Zombie turned his head toward the dog and screamed at it. I knew that Dogg would finish him now…

Dogg grabbed the front of his throat under his chin and bit as hard as he could. Then Dogg proceeded to shake the Zombie like a rag doll and was ripping the Zombies throat out. The Zombie let go of my legs and grabbed Dogg. That is when the fight began. For you see a Leader Zombie has to have its brain chopped into small pieces to kill it. So Dogg and the Zombie went into a death struggle right in front of my eyes. Dogg was not going to let go of the Zombie throat unless he was killed. I was trying to get to the Zombie to help Dogg but I was afraid of hurting Dogg by slashing with my machete…

Then they turned in the hallway and I had my chance. I cut the top half of the Zombies head off with a smashing blow of my machete. I swung so hard that the machete was embedded into the wood floor in the hallway. The Zombie stopped moving…

Dogg let go of the Zombies neck and sniffed at the Zombie. I then saw Dogg do something that I have never seen him do before. He pissed on the Zombies face and looked at me like, There, That is how you kick a Zombie butt…

Stryker

PS: What a mess to clean up and then I had to come up with a good story at the hospital on how I ended up with glass, wood splinters and such embedded in my back. Ouch and 48 stitches, is all I can say is the next story is about checking out the graveyard for more risen dead Zombies from the Source Code Zombie…
