COMPLICATION II

As the time draws near for them to execute their plan, a deviance came by and actually made things easier for them. The down side is that its morbid, over a dozen of people start to get out of the buildings. The people near the buildings reported on the radio what they are seeing. They all walked slowly with masks on their faces, they imitated the 'lifeless' and 'still' movements of the dead. They all looked at it and it amazed them, the 'Bawler' ignores them. It seems that they truly distinguish a person from their own kind. Even down to the snarl and groan they have mimicked. One of them slowly walked passed the 'Bawler, he took small steps. Zachary turned on the light and the person approached them. He whispered through the small slit on the window. Rodrick instinctively turned on the radio and put it up close to the person's mouth.

"We will distract them.. let's meet up on the hiking trail by Kelly Seep, turn the engines on.. don't worry 'he' said"

"Who's he?"

"Never mind that, when they start moving to the back start it up oookaaaaay?"

"Uh huh"

Zachary leaned back and waited for their signal as the man slowly walked with the others to the other side of the community. They all waited there patiently for over an hour, their bodies did not dwindle in the fatigue and soreness that they are feeling. After a while they hear a speaker playing an animal sound, like a rabbit. The cries of a dying one, and it sounds dreadful like a kid's cry. The 'Bawler' turns around and clearly hears the sound, it gave orders through a grunt-like noise. The dead starts to move to the back, as soon as the dead gained a bit of distance from them they slowly turned their vehicles on. They all start to leave on by one until a gunshot fired in one of the cars and the horn and alarm goes off.

The loud siren attracts all of it including the ones near the speakers. The people by the speakers are covered in fear. The dead picked up on the source of the sound and goes to the front most car. They dragged the bodies out even the screaming woman and devoured them. Instead of flailing away they all started their vehicles. Rodrick enraged drove back and maneuvered around the hole and drove the 'Bawler' to a lamp post. He aimed his gun and killed it. The others also started their vehicles and they all got out of the community.

"They got out"

"Time for us to go"

"Yes ma'am"

The people on the speaker looks down to see if it is clear behind the concrete walls, and it is not. The dead are climbing, as they piled up they all climbed on one another. They made a detour amongst the horde in order to go to the hiking trail. They will only walk to the hiking trail and it will take almost 2 days to go there, never if things gets worse.

The vehicles mowed down on the horde in front of them including the ones from outside. They are in the middle of the city and majority of the population has a bit of liking to the human flesh. As soon as they got out they all started to spread out, trying to thin out the horde. The dead runs behind them including big ones that they passed through in the different buildings. All of the dead that are rushing like waves easily catches up to them, jumping on their vehicles but they cannot hold on. Looking outside Zachary definitely sees the difference between the biters that they have encountered.

Being separated everyone is hoping that they will all come down to the hiking place that the man earlier has spoken about. Orlando and Nevada can only cry as they all are fearing for their own lives. Zachary contacted the other's but there is no response as they all are busy trying to save their own necks. As they look in front of them a building suddenly starts collapsing, Rodrick stepped on the pedal as hard as he can. The car went directly under the crumbling building just as it made contact. The roof of the cars are dented because of the debris, the 2 kids screamed even more.

Zachary looked back to see if it made a hit on the dead, and it did. They all started to slowdown as they bask in the sun, because of that they start to gain distance from the once that are chasing them. They all took a breather until more started to appear. Due to the damaged that it sustained the vehicle starts to break down, Zach has no choice but to start shooting at the dead. This time they skins are much tougher taking on 3 to 4 bullets just to be put down. Rodrick rushes to start the vehicle until they hear a loud screech in the buildings. Zachary aimed everywhere as the screech echoed around the buildings. The biters in front of him goes into a standstill. After a few seconds another screech with a different pitch replied.

"Their communicating"

"fuck then I better"

Rodrick struggles to start the vehicle, and it was all useless. They looked around to see a place where they can hide. They are at the North Shea Estates, they looked for a car and instead got on bicycles. They grabbed what items they can and the two kid hopped on their back. The vehicle's engine starts to catch on fire and slowly burns. They biked up to Villa Martinique, during the day they have to get out of Phoenix as night will be much more terrible out here. They got into a intersection and sees the road ahead destroyed, they looked to the right to see a veterinary clinic.

They arrived at the Paradise Valley Mall and its surrounding restaurants, what is left of it anyway. The explosion did a massive toll on it and any cars near the explosion have already been destroyed.

"Guess we'll continue on this?"

"Yeah... let's go"

They passed by skeletons of what was once society, parts of a person still moving. It reminded Zach just how hopeless they are. They slowly rode the bikes in the day and starts to pedal even faster in the night, they still stopped for as long as they need to regain energy. Zach stares into the ceiling some what 'amazed' upon what he saw earlier, the communication between 2 'Bawlers'.
