I slam the double doors behind me and barricade it with a chair that was nearby. Within seconds, the doors started to rattle violently from the constant banging followed by moans.

You focus towards controlling your heart rate. Consisting of five second intervals of holding your breath after breathing in and breathing out.

The banging gets louder and louder as the moans turn into demonic screams.

“I need to get out of here,” you say in a panic. You scan the room looking for a door or even a ladder, something.

“A window!”

You make a “B- line” towards the opening pushing chairs and tables out of the way. The city was in chaos; people screaming, gunshots and snarling of monsters in the distance, structural fires, and sirens. It was truly the end of times and whatever those things are, they are it.

You look up and see a fire escape- a way out!

Beginning your decent, the metal structure rings with each step you take.

Clang. Clang. Clang.

What should be a shorter way down felt like it was taking forever to get down to the alley. Suddenly, the bolts give way and rest of the fire escape starts to collapse- sending you flying. When you land, you land hard.

Uugghhh!!! Screaming in agony you feel a sharp bloody object protruding from you thigh. It was your bone.

“No.” “No.” “No.”

You lay in the alley way holding your leg and immediately see more of those monsters.

“Skreech!!!” The monster starts to scratch at the fence

If it wasn’t for that chain link fence, you would be somebody’s dinner. Noticing a storage room a couple feet from you are, You start moving backwards. With every plop, a jolt of pain races up your body, but you keep moving. Taking a quick look back at the fence, you slowly seeing losing its form, caving more and more towards you.

“Come on!” You yell.

The moment the monster starts pouring over the fence they start running directly at you. You pull out your gun and start dropping of them, landing with a squishing sound.

The moment you felt the doorframe, you rolled in and kick the door shut.

Once again the door shook violently with loud screeching following right behind. You eject the clip to check how many shot you have left.

Two.
