Baby

"Help!!" the man cried out as he ran towards her. Burns was just a few meters away from her, she could see the monster chasing the man, the two monsters lunged at her. 

Quickly she shot both monsters on their knee and chest, they both fell before they could get to her, with Burns close enough she jumps on the bike with her back against Burns', she shot the leg of the monster that was chasing the man.

The man chased after the bike, all three monsters behind him as he ran after them with all his might.

Lily shot at different parts of the monsters to kill it, but they'd only slow down and heal. She finally targeted the biggest one, at the center of its chest where there was still a patch of skin left. She shot at it, the bullet bounced of it's chest and hit the monster next to it.

As that monster fell it's claw scrapped the back of the man's leg. Lily targeted the same spot and shot at multiple times.

The first bullet bounced off again, the second seemed to have cracked the shell protecting that area, the third made a hole and just before the monster could seal up she fired again and the bullet pierced straight through the monster's chest.

The monster fell and stumbled on the floor, the man looked back as he ran, only two monster's chased after him now. "Take the baby!" he yelled as he looked forward.

Lily shook her head, "Just keep running, i'll handle the creatures" she said as she reloaded her gun, the monster's increased their pace. Lily pointed a gun at both monster's at least now she knew how to kill them.

She was about to fire when she noticed something coming out of the man's nose "Fuck" she let out as she remembered not only was it what came out of the infected but also what oozed out of the monsters when she shot at them.

The sun was already setting at this point, she didn't want to be near anyone that was likely to kill her when she couldn't see her environment clearly. She looked at the man and then the monsters.

"Burns when i say go you speed up" she ordered.

"What about the man?" Burns asked.

"He's as good as dead already" she replied as she began shooting at the monsters. She managed to penetrate the shell of the second and kill it. As the second one fell the third seemed to gain intelligence as it stopped running straight.

As it chased after the man, it moved from side to side. "Shit!" Lily cursed, she watched the man clean his nose as he ran "Throw the baby" she ordered when she saw the monster's claw inches away from him.

"Okay" the man yelled. Lily saw as green veins began to spread out around his body, he threw the baby.

*Roooaaaararrrr* 

The monster roared, Burns slowed down as Lily got to her feet on the back, using one hand she caught the baby, she fired multiple times and the bullets swerved through the air.

The monsters claw went straight through the man and at the same time a bullet hit the man's skull, followed by another, and another and another. 

The bullet pierced through the man's skull and broke the protective shell of the monster, piercing its heart and finally one came out its back.

Lily watched as both the monster and the man fell. "What happened?" Burns asked as he drove through the street. Lily sat down and put her back against Burns'.

She let out a sigh as the monster began to disappear from her view "Nothing" she replied as she looked at the setting sun.

*Waaahhhh*

The baby cried out loudly, she looked down at the baby, it was a little girl. She cried loudly, "Cause of papa huh" Lily said softly "Don't worry baby, i'll take-" Lily began but paused when she saw black liquid ooze out of her nose.

Green veins began to snake around the girls arm, Lily sighed "Stop" she said and Burns immediately stopped the bike.

"What happened?" he asked as Lily got down the bike. He quickly followed her, only for her to stop a few steps away from the bike and place the baby on the floor. "What are you doing?" he asked.

Lily ignored him and pointed the gun at the crying baby. "Hey" Burns exclaimed and rushed to her front "What are you doing?" he asked.

"Move" Lily ordered sternly.

"No" Burns replied as he stood his ground, his aim was to protect the wailing child on the ground.

"It's not human Burns, move"

"If you kill her would you still be human?"

"If killing that thing will make me a monster then so be it" Lily snapped back "It's better than adding one more insane creature to the list of bloodthirsty monsters out for our blood" she added, "Now" she cocked the gun "Move, or i'll shoot you then it" she said with a serious look in her eye.

Burns slowly stepped aside and Lily stepped up to the child, her skin began to peel, her eyes turned black and a small claw began to form on the back of her hand.

She wailed loudly as Lily stared at her, She hesitated for a few seconds before she fired. The bullet hit the baby straight in the chest.

The baby coughed out black blood, her eyes reverted back to normal and she looked at Lily. Lily looked at the child for a while and then looked away. "Let's go" she said as she got on the bike.

.....

Mika and the others sneaked past the halls, the made their way downstairs. The sun had already set, the hall lights turned on, aiding them on their journey through the building.

The passed by a couple of lockers and Melanie stopped in front of one. "What are you doing?" Luella asked her as she watched her fiddle with the lock.

"This was Isabella's locker" Melanie answered as she finally opened the lock.

"And so?" Luella asked.

Melanie brought out a book, "You two" Javier called out in a whisper and they looked at him "Let's move, we don't have all day" he added and they immediately followed after him.

They finally made it downstairs, the path to the door was filled with bodies of different students, some had bite marks, some looked like the were torn apart forcefully, others stretched, and the front door was barely hanging on to its hinges.

Whatever it was barged through the door, breaking through and shattering the glass. Javier went first, he peaked out the building and saw nothing around.

He turned to the others and said "We stick to the walls alright? The shrubs will cover us"

They nodded in response and they began to move slowly. The school building had tall shrubs planted by the sides. Using the shrubs as cover they made their way to the cafeteria.

As the moved Kai could feel as ICE succeeded in removing one rod from her body, he had a small smile playing on the side of his lips.

They suddenly heard a sound and began to hurry, Aino passed by the others in fear, suddenly, she tripped over something and fell, she slowly gut up and screamed "Ahhhhhhhhh" she shrieked.

"No Aino Sh-" before Nour could finished her sentence something snaked round Aino's waist and pulled her away.
