Ok, so in the spirit of Halloween, I was trying to think of a good idea that I could share with people here. I always loved being told ghost stories when I was little, despite the nightmares it gave me. So I decided to make up a really stupid, cheesy zombie, ghost story using all the people from my friend's list as characters. Now, by no means does this story reflect my opinions on anyone here. I love you all no matter how big of a part you got or how small. The roles really are arbitrary as is your fates. If you're uncomfortable about being a character in my story please let me know. But I thought it would kind of fun to mess with you guys. Who will live? Who will die? Who will be eatin? Its classic bad horror movie material. I hope you enjoy it.
Suicide Zombie Bloodbath!
The season of fall brings many things such as the death of those that were once living. They wait there quietly in the coldness of winter to be reborn in the Spring. Its a natural cycle of life. But there are some things that are already dead and wait till the dying season to come back.
Three cars make their way up a narrow mountain road. They are heading towards Elegy Pass, where a cabin was built many years ago. A lonesome road, marked only by a small store next to it, points them towards a dark part of the mountains. The cabin is at least 40 miles from the store. The road is rough and windy. At last, the cars arrive at the cabin. At last, the fun can begin. The cabin is being visited by a group of friends from the city. They have plans of fishing, swimming, hiking and some quality good time partying. BeckyJane looked up at the cabin. The front almost looks like a face with the stairs smiling. Its rustic but large enough to house 14 people for the weekend. The guests start filing into the cabin calling rooms and couches. The cabin was lent to FridgeMagnet from a work associate who told him to have good time this weekend. He took the largest room which he expected to share. BeckyJane and Asrai took a smaller room as did MissMyla and Saya.
FoXeE, hopey, Lies, freckle, ROCKADIVA took the loft that was roomier than it looked from downstairs. StephenDedalus quietly put her stuff in FridgeMagnets room. The couches next to the fireplace were left for nofiradio, hypnogogic and walker. They didnt mind, closer to the booze anyway. They settled in, making drinks, unpacking, and stretching from the long car ride. The sun was out and it was unusually warm for an October afternoon. They realized that they did not bring enough food. BeckyJane, Asrai, Saya, and MissMyla took one of the cars and headed back towards the store. The others got drunk and decided to go down by the lake.
BeckyJane pulled into the store lot. No other cars, no signs of business whatsoever. As the girls entered the store they saw a poster next to the door. It had pictures of 5 missing girls. Underneath each picture was a name: Didi, Euthanasia, Kaylin, Little_Darlin and Maraschino. It continued to read Any information of these missing girls whereabouts please contact Sheriff MrsPat immediately. The store was musty. It hadnt been cleaned in weeks. Not much food, a lot of maps and books for local tourism. A lady came out from the back. Hey there, my name is Robotsatemyhair. What brings you ladies way up here?
Were staying at a cabin up the road here and we need some supplies
Robotsatemyhair looked at the girls intensely.
I dont have much food. Nobody comes around anymore. But go ahead and have a look around
The girls grabbed what they needed, some bread, chips and water. As they paid for it, the clerk slipped a book into their bag.
This ones free. Please take it, you might find it interesting.
The lake was about a 2-mile hike from the cabin. The group made their way down and laid on the field. Three fishermen were down along the shore.
I didnt think there would be other people here. Were in the middle of nowhere.
Nofiradio and hypnogogic went to down to greet them.
Hows the fishing?
Not good, I think its a little late in the season. My name is ProperNoun, this is Kobi and sillyokio. How long are you people staying?
Just the weekend. I wanted to hike up some of these trails and get a few pics.
Be careful, pretty treacherous terrain up those hills. Were camping down the lake a bit. Its quiet and the trees keep the wind off our backs
Thanks for the tip
Walker needed to take a piss so he ventured up the woods a little bit to get some privacy. He walked behind a tree and something caught him out of the corner of his eye. A woman dressed in a red robe was walking towards him. She was singing
Across the lake
Across the field
Youll feel our horror
No walls can shield
Your very skin
Your very bone
Will soon be ours
Youre not alone
Who are you?
My name is Bettiegirl. I came out here 5 years ago with my sister lioness4. Did you like that song? I heard it 5 years ago. Youll hear it. Youll hear it again soon enough. Youll hear it before you die. Youre all going to die.
That night people congregated around the fire. Walker was trying to forget the mysterious girl he saw in the woods. He kept drinking. The girls were back unpacking the food. BeckyJane looked at the book that Robotsatemyhair gave her. It looked like an ordinary history book about the area. It was filled with black and white photos of logging operations, small dams, and miners. She turned to a section talking about local legends. She started reading a story about sightings of strange, beautiful women in the upper hills of the coalmines and logging roads. It is said that long ago a man was killed in a logging accident but foul play was suspected. His wife wanted an investigation but none ever took place. It was also believed that her and some followers were suspected of witchcraft and performing satanic rituals seeking their own justice. One night a group of local police, loggers, and other townspeople stormed her house and killed her and her followers. They mutilated the bodies and buried them deep in the forest. They never mention the husbands name, but the woman was known as kriss.
Hypnogogic was just finishing his twelfth beer when he started to feel a bit queasy.
Im going outside for some fresh air.
He stumbled his way down the path and rested against one of the cars.
Did my sister warn you?
Half drunk and dizzy, Hypnogogic looked around to see a young woman in a red robe looking at him; her face colorless, her eyes, lifeless. But Hypnogogic was too dizzy to really notice.
My name is lioness4. My sister BettieGirl came to you earlier and tried to warn you. Please, you must all go. Death and horror is on its way. It is night. It is their time. Leave!
What, are you fucking crazy? Where did you come from?
Lioness4 eyes shifted away from Hypnogogic and turned towards the dark shadows of the forest.
They are here.
Hypnogogic straightened himself up and looked over into the forest. To his amazement, three beautiful women were standing next to a tree. They were singing quietly. They had very little clothing and hypnogogic seemed drawn to them. They chanted each others name to him. Clover, Porphyria, Vixen! They circled him, touching his face, chest. He heard them singing louder.
Across the lake
Across the field
He thought he was dreaming, fantasizing! Their bodies tightened around his. A smell reached him. It was not pleasant. It reminded him of rotten meat. Something warm ran down his face. He shifted his eyes upward and saw what looked like a woman floating over him. Her face was sunken, her eyes were blood. Blood.blood.bloodBlood!
It was blood, his blood. He looked down and saw three horrible face of utter terror. Their eyes of blood and sinister black-tooth grins were upon him and began to eat his flesh.
Sarahjane was trying to straighten the car out as she drove through the night. She was looking at a map that her sister Beckyjane gave her to find the cabin. She wished she could have gone earlier with the rest of the group and not have to find her way at night. She pulled over to a store and saw two people standing outside.
Excuse me, do you know how far mile post 18 is from here?
Youre on it! But thats a rough road at night, lots of holes in the road and sharp turns. It wouldnt be smart going up there tonight.
But I need to. I have to meet people
Tell you what, were heading out that way. So, if you dont mind giving us a lift, well help you get to your friends, deal?
Umm.ok, hop in. My name is Sarahjane.
Nice to meet you Sarahjane. This is honubandit and Im kriss.
As the night grew later, alcohol began to take hold. ROCKADIVA and FoXeE danced around the fire while Fridgemagnet played guitar. Lies, Asrai and freckle continued taking shots. Saya and Missmyla were laughing hysterically about something. Hopey and StephenDadalus were dancing with nofiradio. But Beckyjane kept on reading about the local legends and started to become uneasy. Walker was not feeling well too. He noticed Hypnogogic hadnt been back for a while. He went looking for him. As he got up, hopey asked where he was going.
Have you seen hypnogogic anywhere?
No, not for awhile. Lets go look for him.
Hopey and Walker went outside calling for hypnogogic. The air was still and it was much colder than earlier. Hopey shivered.
Why is he out here, its freezing. I hope he didnt pass out.
Walker ventured around the cabin thinking maybe hypnogogic had passed out. As he turned the corner, a hand was placed on his shoulder. A foul smell reached his nostrils.
Hypno, is that you?
A face appeared in the cabin light. It was hypnogogic but dead. His eyes were sunken. His skin gray and crawling. Blood dripped from his mouth. Walker froze! His friend did not look well. With savage force, hypnogogic ripped open Walker, tearing at his abdomen. Walker barely screamed as he fell. Hopey thought she heard something behind the cabin. As she made her way, a figure stood upon the grass in the moonlight. It looked like the body of a woman. She was wearing nothing but a coat. Her body moved eloquently in the moonlight towards hopey.
Who are you?
My name is Eireann. Ive been waiting for you hopey.
She pulled back her coat revealing herself. Hopey was frightened at first but looking into this womans eyes, she became lost. The kiss was magical, sending fire down hopeys spine. Was this a dream? Am I loosing it? Hopey then heard groaning behind her. She turned around to see two disfigured looking monsters that looked sort of like hypnogogic and walker. She became startled and looked back at Eireann. The sinister black-tooth grin was waiting for her. It sunk its teeth into her neck and devoured her soul.
The party was dying down. Fridgemagnet and StephenDedalus adjourned upstairs. Beckyjane had also gone to bed but she couldnt sleep. She was worried that her sister wouldn't show up and was lost. Also, that story made her insides turn. Saya and Missmyla had gone to bed. Nofiradio, ROCKADIVA, FoxeE, freckle and lies were still up. Nobody knew where Asrai was.
Fridgemagnet and StephenDadulas were in bed enjoying the moment. His earlier guitar playing and the alcohol were paying off for him. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time. While they were having sex, they could sort of hear something outside the door. It sounded like something was breaking. Nevermind, Fridgemagnet had more important things to do. The door suddenly opened. Both of them jumped at the shock of someone intruding. The silhouette was that of a woman, barely clothed. Fridgemagnet could tell by the shape it was hopey. This made him even more excited, getting with StephenDedalus was something he had been working on for a while but a threesome with her and hopey would be beyond his wildest dreams.
Youre just in time hopey. I was warming her up for you.
Hopey walked slowly in the dark room towards the bed. As Fridgemagnet reached out to touch her breasts, hopey grabbed a hold and bit through his arm, tearing at the bone. Blood squirted all over the bed. Fridgemagnets throat was ripped out as hopey feasted on his bloody flesh. StephenDedalus screamed and tried to escape. Hopey grabbed her leg and pull her back to the bed. With one strong bite, hopey crushed StephenDedaluss skull, spilling brains all over the pillows.
Beckyjane heard the screams and she ran to the door as well as MissMyla and Saya. In the living room laid freckle, lies, FoxeE and ROCKADIVA. Hypnogogic and Walker were standing over them. Nofiradio was backing away on the floor calling for help.
What the fuck is going on? They grabbed Nofiradio and the four of them ran out of the cabin. Beckyjane was hoping someone had car keys on them but it didnt matter. As soon as they got outside, they found that all three cars were burning.
What is happening? Why would someone set the cars on fire?
Suddenly, a pair of car lights came towards them in the distance. Beckyjane hoped like hell it was Sarahjane coming. They could get in and leave. But it wasnt Sarahjane. It was an SUV with a sheriffs sign on the side. Out stepped sheriff MrsPat with two other officers named BlueValentine and SarcasticMenance.
Thank god youre here. Please help us. My friends are in there. Some of them are dead. And I think Walker and hypnogogic killed them. Please help us
MrsPat looked at them.
We just came from the corner store up on the highway. It seem someone decided to kill Robotsatemyhair and spread her body parts all over the store. We followed the freshest tire marks from the location. It led us here. You people are in a lot of trouble.
Sheriff MrsPat ordered everyone to stay put.
Im going inside with BlueValentine. SarasticMenance, keep an eye on these kids, make sure none of them try to run.
SaracasticMenance put her hand to her side and pulled out her firearm. MrsPat and BluevValentine entered the cabin. Nothing, no signs of any bodies but some furniture was broken. They also found whiskey and blood on the carpet.
Either these kids are liars and trying to cover up their tracks or just as MrsPat was going to finish her thought something slammed itself on top of her from above. With one bite it ripped out the back of her head. Blood spilled everywhere. BlueValentine jumped back and shot. Three bullets hit the chest of what was once Fridgemagnet, now a rotting corpse hungry for new blood. BlueValentine tried to run but she found herself surrounded by a fresh host of zombies. Lies, ROCKADIVA, FoXeE, hopey, freckle, walker, StephenDedalus, hypnogogic all attacked her, ripping her to shreds. This was one victim not returning as the undead. Outside the remaining survivors could hear the gunshots. SaracasticMenance drew her gun away from the crowd and called out.
Sheriff, BlueValentine, are you alright? No answer. Nofiradio quietly opened the police SUV, the keys were still in the ignition. He motioned silently to Saya, MissMyla, and BeckyJane. They all quickly moved to the car. As SaracasticMenance walked closer to the house, MrsPat stepped out the door.
What the hell happened in there? Wheres BlueValentine? She got closer to MrsPat but soon found out that who she was talking to wasnt alive anymore. SarasticMenance tried to fire but too late. MrsPat bit into her arm and slowly began to devour her. Nofiradio started the car and with tires screaming, sped out into the black forest. The girls looked for anything they could find useful in the car. Underneath the seats were two shotguns and some boxes of shells. The back was equipped with flashlight and what looked like a small baseball bat.
What are we going to tell the police?
Fuck it, I just want to get out of this forest now.
This road takes forever. It could be hours before we reach someone. Nofiradio kept driving faster to get far away as possible. Suddenly something jumped out in front of them. The brakes were hit and everyone was thrown forward. MissMyla looked up to see Asrai coming towards them crying.
What the hell are you doing out here?
I went outside to get some fresh air and I ran into hypnogogic. He looked awful. He attacked me but I got away. Thats when I saw these things that looked sort of like women. They were by our cars and then suddenly, the cars caught on fire. I ran and thought I saw a car coming but it didnt stop for me. Where is everybody else?
Get in, no time to explain now.
Asrai got in and they kept on going. They remembered the road only being 40 miles but it seemed like they had been driving for 3 hours. No sign of any other road, just dust and beyond that, darkness.
What the fuck, where is the fucking road? We should be there by now. Nofiradio was trying to use the police radio to call for help but nothing, only static. The five of them were lost in the woods.
Do you think we miss the turn off?
There was no turn off, no other road, no other way to go.
What the fuck are we going to do now guys?
Nofiradio rolled down his window to hear if a major road was close. Nothing, no wind, no animals, he couldnt even hear himself breath.
Ive never heard things be so quiet
For some reason, Nofiradio put the car in reverse and turn around heading back towards the cabin.
Are you fucking nuts?
The car sped down the road flying over the bumps in the road and nearly going over on its side as it turned.
Nofi, what the fuck are you heading back for? Theyll kill us all.
Nofiradio stayed quiet and kept driving. Up head, a light appeared to the side of the road in the trees. It looked like a fire. The car slowed down and they could tell it was a campsite. Nofiradio stopped the car and grabbed a shotgun. Beckyjane grabbed one too and followed him.
What are you guys doing?
Looking for answers, survivors, anything
They reached the campsite, no car. The fire was small but visible enough and a small tent was placed not too far away.
Hello, anybody here?
A man came out of the tent looking half asleep.
Oh shit, youre not here to rob me are you? I knew America had lots of crime but I thought at least the woods are still safe? Please, we dont have much. My wife and I are not rich and we dont have very much American money.
What, no, were not robbing you. How did you get out here though? I dont see a car.
Were from Australia. My name is Minceir and my wifes name is vivacious_vixen.
We came out here for a few days vacation. We left our car at a nearby ski resort. We love walking and thought this was a good place to stay for the night. What are you doing here and armed?
We just came from a cabin up the road. We came out with some friends but some terrible things have happened. Things I cannot explain. People are dead or at least at first but somehow they come back and are killing others.
You mean zombies. Fucking America!
Vivacious_vixen made her way out of the tent to see what the trouble was about. Soon MissMyla, Saya and Asrai joined them.
The car was getting cold. We need to sit by the fire for a while.
Nofiradio continued talking to Minceir.
If I were you, I would leave immediately. There is something out in these woods, something evil and it wants all of us.
Well, weve camped out in the outback and heard lots of strange stories. The wild can play tricks on the mind, make you see things that arent there. You still havent told me why you have shotguns. But then again, maybe its none of my business. I dont want trouble.
They huddled around the fire more. Saya looked up and saw something pass through the woods. She heard crying.
Does anyone hear that?
Hear what?
That crying, it sounded like it was coming from over there.
There are no sounds out there, only those things. Were leaving soon. Dont get comfortable.
But Saya didnt listen. She got up and tried to follow the sound. It didnt take her long. She saw a young girl, crying next to an old tree that looked dead. Saya raised her flashlight and saw a ghostly face starring at her.
Who are you?
My name is broken_princess. I used to come up here with my family on summer holiday. We would camp around this area and go swimming. There is a lake not far from here. Did you know? But then one day, when I was swimming I felt something touch my leg. I didnt know what it was at first but soon it grabbed me and pulled me under. Whatever you do, dont go near that lake. There are things in it. Monsters, with hideous eyes. They pulled me under and brought me to her. She took me. She took me away from my family. And now Im here forever. And youll be too if you dont survive the night.
Saya started shaking. She didnt know if this was true but something told her to believe it. Then broken_princess eyes became completely white and she screamed. The sound pierced Sayas ears and she fell to her knees. Suddenly the ghost was gone but now something else was close. Something was watching Saya. She could still see the fire and ran towards it but a cold hand reached out and grabbed her throat. All she could see was blood red eyes and a sinister black-tooth grin.
The others rose with fright when they heard the screams.
Where is Saya?
She was hear a second ago.
Something emerged from the dark. It landed in the fire. It was Sayas head, eyes rolled back, tongue out. The flames soon engulfed it as everyone screamed. Nofiradio pointed the gun and fired. Nothing but the cries of everyone was heard. The air suddenly got colder. Everyones breath could be seen in the firelight. A putrid smell arose. They all looked around and started to hear laughter. Figures started to appear around them, smiling and hissing. The demon Clover crawled in on all fours sniffing the air.
I smell fresh blood, young blood, my favorite.
Another demon named PortiaAteCoals arose from behind them. Poryhyria, Vixen and Eireann also appeared, licking what was left of Saya off their lips.
All of the rest of our little friends are here. What a nice gift this will make for her.
Nofiradio and Beckyjane pointed their shotguns at their attackers. Missmyla found a pistol between the front seat of the car and now was holding that up. Minceir grabbed an ax he used for firewood.
What the fuck are these things? You said zombies, these things look like fucking demons. Minceir was getting pissed and was ready to fight to the death.
We are not demons, we are you, or more accurately, what you will become.
Nofiradio shot Clover through her chest. Blackish blood spewed out and caught fire.
Their blood catches fire!
But soon, it stopped and her wound closed up.
Thanks, sometimes I like the taste of my own flesh but yours will do tonight. She lunged towards Nofiradio but something caught her from the side. It hit a tree and stuck there. It was a type of sword, curved and double-edged. Clover landed in front of them and quickly her head fell off. The body fell over and burst into flames. The others screamed and soon it became obvious that someone was watching and closing in.
Five women stepped into the firelight. All were armed with the same type of sword and a couple had shotguns as well. Vixen and Eireann jumped off the trees and attacked their new foe. A woman named Alukh raised her shotgun and hit Vixen in the head, blasting it clean off. Another woman named hotcurry rolled in the path of PortiaAteCoals and stuck a blade into her abdomen. The demon cried out in pain as hotcurry grabbed a blade from behind her back and cut off the head. Porphyria tried to escape but a woman emerged from the shadows, and stuck her from behind. Her name was Whitewidow, it was her sword that stuck in the tree. She sliced off Porphyrias head and wiped the blood away. The demon Eireann managed to escape. Two of the hunters tried to track her but it was too dark.
Sorry were late. If we had found you sooner, maybe your friend would still be alive.
My name is Alukh, my friends are Awesomejossie, hotcurry, Whitewidow, lankakitten. And I assume you already have met those other things. They have been hunting you for a while now. But, weve been following them, tracking their smell, you can hear them sometimes, if you can hear anything out in these woods.
Minceir looked at them with utter confusion.
Who the fucking hell are you people? How did you know about them and how to kill them?
If you come with us, well tell you everything.
A car will do you no good tonight. You are trapped as we all are trapped. It is night and we are in their world now. It may seem like a forest but its not. These woods have eyes and ears and they are watching us right now.
Alukh explained to them that this area of the forest is under a dark curse and many people have gone missing over the years since the incident with a woman named kriss.
Kriss and her followers were murdered to prevent any kind of backlash over the death of her husband. No one really knows what happened to him but its obvious now that she will never rest until every last soul on earth is consumed. Her demons capture young woman and feast on their souls. Eating their souls is what keeps the gateway open between our worlds. Right now, were looking for the missing girls. They are somewhere up in the hills on the other side of the lake. Kriss needs to consume as many souls as possible before dawn or shell be too weak to carry on. Were hoping the girls are still alive.
But how do you know all this?
Well for one, Ive been able to see demons all my life. I cant explain that. Its only here are they able to reach the living. And second, Maraschino, one of the girls captured, is my sister and I know she is still alive.
BeckyJane thought about her sister and prayed that she didnt make the trip.
What about all our friends back at the cabin? They were walking around but they looked like they had been torn to pieces.
Bitten by demons, their poison spreads. Your friends are dead, what you see now are nothing but walking death, made to serve its master.
How are we going to get across the lake? Its at least a 5 mile hike around it.
We have boats that we brought down earlier today but it wouldnt do us any good. You cant see them during the day and we would never find the girls.
A harsh cold wind suddenly blew through the trees. A high-pitched scream echoed from the darkness chilling everyones blood.
Its kriss, shes watching us.
A sinister figured appeared from the darkness. Eireann crawled towards them, screaming and hissing.
Im glad to see you havent left.
The same smell that they noticed earlier was now upon them and stronger than ever. Bodies emerged from all over. BeckyJane could see what was left of her friends. Walker, hypnogogic, hopey, FoXeE, lies, freckle, Fridgemagnet, StephenDedalus, ROCKADIVA were slowly marching towards them. Their eyes glazed over white, their skin blue and crackled. The sheriff and SaracasticMenance were among them too. All dead and hungry for flesh blood. For a moment, everyone stood still, then suddenly Fridgemagnet ran towards BeckyJane and without the slightest pause she fired right into his face. His rotten skull shattered and his body keeled over. The others advanced. The hunters quickly fought off the zombie attack. Nofiradio blasted an arm off hypnogogic and with barrel to head destroyed what was left. Hopey attacked MissMyla but soon lost her head to hotcurrys sword. Minceir chopped his way through the zombie attack but heard his wifes scream. Zombie Lies had bitten vivacious_vixen and now was feasting on her head. Minceir ran to her and jammed his ax into her head, shooting the eyeballs out of the skull. With another hack he cut off her head and looked at his wounded wife. Suddenly a fist emerged from Minceirs chest as zombie Walker grab at his throat and begin to devour. Vivacious_vixen screamed in horror. Walker continued to feed as a gun barrel jammed into the back of his skull. Whitewidow pulled the trigger and destroyed zombie Walker. Vivacious_vixen kept screaming as her mouth filled with blood. With her other hand, whitewidow pulled her sword.
Im sorry.
And with one swiped sliced vivacious_vixens head off. All the zombies had been destroyed except SarasticMenace who was putting up a good fight with only one arm now. Alukh and Awesomejossie were facing off with demon Eireann. Nofiradio pumped his shotgun as he approached the cornered zombie, she looked at him with dead white eyes and started laughing. He shoved the barrel down her throat and gave her a little smile. As the shotgun went off, the head flew in a nearby tree and splattered. Blood poured from the neck as the body fell over, still. Eireann screamed and tried to scale a nearby tree. Awesomejossie was quick to catch her and sliced off both legs. The demon fell to the ground. Alukh bent over and with a quick swipe the head was gone. Eireanns screams died among the flames and ash.
We need to cross the lake. This attack was only meant to slow us down.
They walked quickly down a steep woody hill and in front of them appeared the lake, sparkling in the moonlight.
The boats are hidden down a ways in some brush. We make a straight shot for the other side. We believe kriss hides in the foot of those hills on the other side.
The survivors quickly found the boats and carried them to the water.
No motors, you mean were going to have row across the fucking lake?
Yes, you want to stay here and try to survive the night?
Everyone got in the boats and soon enough they were off. The shoreline was getting more distant and faint as they pushed on farther. In one boat was Alukh, whitewidow, Beckyjane, Asrai and Nofiradio and the other, MissMyla, Awesomejossie, hotcurry and lankakitten. Alukh had a worrisome look on her face and she kept looking at the water.
Beckyjane notice this and leaned in towards her.
What is it? Whats troubling you?
Tonight weve killed five demons. But I know there are more. Why havent they shown up yet? What are they waiting for?
MissMyla curled up tighter as the wind begin to come off the water. It was bone chilling. She stared into the water and began to feel sleepy. All of a sudden she realized that the face in the water was not her reflection but the face of a young girl, rotted, dead and yet very much alive. MissMyla heart dropped and felt something underneath the boat shift and move. Hotcurry was rowing when suddenly something grabbed the ores from underneath the water.
What the fuck?
The ores ripped from her hands and were pulled into the water. Alukh suddenly realized why the other demons had not attacked yet. They were waiting, waiting in the lake! Lankakitten tried to hold herself steady when from behind someone lunged out of the water and grabbed a hold of her biting her neck and pulling her out of the boat. MissMyla screamed as she tried to reach for her gun. As she turned, a zombie was already half way out of the water. It was sillyokio, the girl who was fishing earlier that day. She lunged at MissMyla and bit into her cheek. Blood sprayed as Awesomejossie sliced off sillyokios head. The head fell into the boat as more blood sprayed all over MissMyla who went into shock. Another fisherman emerged from the water, zombie Kobi attacked the boat from the other side and grabbed a hold of hotcurry. She tried to reach for her sword but soon was dragged into the water. The lake was ice cold and pitch black. All she could see was a pair of white eyes coming towards her. She tired to surface but it was too late, Kobi bit her and she went limp. Alukh and the others were screaming from their boat. It seems they were attacking one boat at a time. But something else was in this water besides zombies. MissMyla was still screaming as Awesomejossie held a shotgun to the water. Lankakittens and hotcurrys bodies floated to the surface. Soon they would become the enemy. No sign of other zombies now. The water went still. Suddenly something flew out of the water and landed behind Awesomejossie. A demon named Mashi grabbed Awesomejossie and pulled the shotgun in tight.
Let me help you with that my dear. Mashi hissed these words. The shotgun was forced under Awesomejossies chin and fired. What was left fell over in front of MissMyla. Mashi made her way towards MissMyla when something else emerged from the water. Whitewidow took Mashi by surprised and put the barrel of her shotgun right at Mashi nose. With one blast, the demons head exploded.
Oh god please help me!
The other boat was turning around to pick them up when something in the water started churning. All of a sudden, MissMyla, Whitewidow and the entire boat was pulled under the water.
Oh shit! What the fuck is down there? Whitewidow, MissMyla!
Nofiradio had his shotgun ready as did Beckyjane. Alukh rowed back to try for an attempt at a rescue. They all leaned over to see if they could find anyone.
They are with us now. And soon youll be too. A voice came from behind them.
A beautiful looking demon was sitting at the end of the boat holding Asrai in her arms. This demon was named Xip and she was known for being quite fierce and twisted. Asrai was limp with a stream of blood down her neck. Surfacing on both sides were zombie Kobi and Propernoun.
You have failed. Trust me, what you are about to see and experience is beyond any mortals comprehension. She threw Asrai into the water. Xip lunged at Alukh and pushed her into the lake. Kobi and Propernoun swam for the fresh blood. Alukh tried to get back into the boat but Kobi pulled her under. Xip grabbed Nofiradio and pinned him down. BeckyJane tried to fire her shotgun but Xip was quick to grab it and throw it into the water. BeckyJane was thrown to the other side of the boat hitting her head. Xips hot breath was on Nofiradio. Her eyes starring into his, blood red eyes and that smile, sinister black-tooth grin. Her claws dug into his shoulders as blood erupted from his skin. Her tongue gently licking his face as she opened her mouth to feast. But BeckyJane has gotten up and with one swiped from Alukhs sword, Xips head was gone and body fell into the lake.
Alukh! Beckyjane and Nofiradio looked around to see if she was still alive. Something rose to the surface. The bodies of zombie Kobi and Propernoun floated up, headless. Alukh swam to the boat with a shotgun in her hand.
Good thing someone threw this shotgun into the water.
The three survivors regrouped themselves and patched their wounds. Alukh also gathered up all the floating bodies and decapitated them. She wasnt going to take any chances. The shore was clearer now and the three hunters gathered all ammunition they had left.
BeckyJane was thankful they were back on land. The three hiked up a steep, rocky hillside and into the dark woods.
Where is this place? Is it a cave, house?
No, it doesnt work like that. Shell find us.
The dead silence that they heard earlier was now present again. They kept climbing when suddenly they heard the sound of crying. They ran towards the sound and found a large bonfire with six stones placed equal distant apart around the fires edge. Next to each stone was a girl, naked, tied, and slashed up.
It looks like kriss was drinking the girls blood a little at a time. Keeping them weak but alive. It torments the soul making it stronger for kriss. They entered the circle looking around for signs of kriss.
BeckyJane!
Beckyjane looked over to see her sister, Sarahjane tied against the rock, her hair stained with blood, her body shivering. Beckyjane quickly cut the ropes and put a blanket around her sister. Alukh found her sister too. Maraschino was barely alive, too weak to speak.
How are the others?
Nofiradio looked around.
Im afraid some of these girls are dead.
Sarahjane managed to get to her knees.
Didi, Euthanasia and Little_Darlin were killed last night. Kriss said they will return soon. Kaylin is still alive, but barely.
Nofiradio cut Kaylin down. He carried her to the fire to warm her up and gave her some water. Alukh tried to revive her sister when suddenly a grim feeling of being watched took over her. As Nofiradio gave Kaylin some water, someone laughed behind him. He turned around quickly just enough to catch demon honubandit force her claw into his chest and ripped out his heart. Nofiradio fell to his knees. She did not bite him though. He would keep his soul.
Beckyjane and Alukh went for their guns. Honubandit wasted no time and picked up Kaylin shielding herself.
You fucking bitch, put her down.
Hounbandit laughed as she slowly backed away. From behind honubandit, another figure appeared. this one, not menacing, or evil-looking at all. It was kriss, a beautiful woman who seemed very calm.
What is going on here? Please children, put down your guns. I do not want to harm you.
Your bitch just killed Nofi, you took our sisters and killed our friends and you mean us no harm?
It is all for a greater purpose. The lives you live are meaningless. I strive for a higher purpose. Soon when this world has changed and sees things from my point of view, we can rule heaven and hell. No more death.
Kriss spoke softly but in her voice there was something hiding, some great evil ready to devour everything in site. Beckyjane and Alukh looked around seeing faces appear from the darkness. Beckyjane recognized some of them.
My friends.my friends are here.
Ghostly shadows of her friends from the cabin appeared along with the sheriff and the other officer. Many other faces of young girls appeared, all who souls had been taken by kriss. A woman named Evita1 walked by Alukh.
Please, help us.
Kriss smiled as she came closer to the fire. It lightened up her face. Her eyes glowing wild, now becoming red like her servants.
Can you see I bring peace and immortality to this world? Death from me is a gift.
Another ghostly woman named 1kiss_of_life floated by Beckyjane.
She lies, its not peace. We are damned. You must try and survive the night. Otherwise youll be hers forever.
Kriss turned back and took Kaylin from honubandits arms.
These women are now mine. You will only die saving yourselves.
Krisss bit into Kaylin neck taking every last breath. Alukh raised her gun to fire when honubandit lunged towards taking a shot to her chest. Alukh pumped her shotgun but the gun went click, out of shells. Honubandit slashed at Alukh ripping her chest open. Across the fire Beckyjane pointed her gun as hounbandit raised her claws. The shot hit perfect and honubandit head blew off as the demons body bolted into the bonfire. Alukhs lifeless body laid on the ground. Her sister ,Marschino, had already died a few minutes earlier. Kriss gave a bone-chilling scream and soon became a vision of true horror. Beckyjane picked up Sarahjane and the two tumbled their way down the dark hillside. Beckyjane could hear the screams coming closer and closer.
I need to survive the night. Thats all I need to do is survive the night.
They got near the lake towards an open field. Beckyjanes legs were tired getting weaker. Sarahjane was barely consciences. Beckyjane took the shotgun off her back as kriss stormed across the field. Her eyes, blood red and filled with hate. Her smile, sinister and black-toothed. Beckyjane knew she had one shot. She held the gun up with her remaining strength and looked kriss straight in the eyes. She pulled the trigger and click, guns empty. Beckyjanes heart sank. This was it. Kriss was right on top of them when something shined in her face. Kriss looked up to see the morning sun making its appearance over the mountains.
No, please, it cant be. Not yet, its too soon.
Kriss tried to hide but the suns rays shined on her. Her skin began to melt, her eyes bled through her skull. Bones began to turn to ash. Soon, her and half the field was ablaze. The sun was warm on Beckyjanes skin as she crawled away carrying her sister. She had noticed too that the sun seemed to come up a little earlier than usual. She wondered if someone else was watching her too; or maybe if was just daylight savings time kicking in.
It had been over four hours before Beckyjane and Sarahjane reached a road. She was never so happy to see pavement in all her life. They walked down the street hoping that someone would stop and help. Sure enough a car pulled over. A young man rolled down his window.
You ladies need some help?
Yes, please, if you can, we need a ride to a hospital.
I can do that. Theres one about 20 miles from here.
Beckyjane put her sister in the back seat and got in the passenger side.
The man was well dressed, handsome and seemed very nice.
Thank you for helping us. You have no idea what weve been through.
You guys alright though? You seem pretty banged up.
I dont know. I cant explain last night at all.
Something happen?
You can say that
I hear all kinds of stories around here. This area is filled with all kinds of mysteries. I used to be a logger. I saw all kinds of weird shit in those woods. I assume thats where you came from.
It is but its over now. My name is Beckyjane by the way.
Hi Beckyjane, my name is Aegir. Its nice to meet you. Maybe sometime soon, you can share your story with me.
Beckyjane smiled and looked back at her sister who was sleeping now. She took a deep breath and waited for sleep. Suddenly the car became very cold and a familiar smell filled the air. She looked over at Aegir who was looking at her, with blood-red eyes and a sinister black-tooth grin.
The End
Suicide Zombie Bloodbath!
The season of fall brings many things such as the death of those that were once living. They wait there quietly in the coldness of winter to be reborn in the Spring. Its a natural cycle of life. But there are some things that are already dead and wait till the dying season to come back.
Three cars make their way up a narrow mountain road. They are heading towards Elegy Pass, where a cabin was built many years ago. A lonesome road, marked only by a small store next to it, points them towards a dark part of the mountains. The cabin is at least 40 miles from the store. The road is rough and windy. At last, the cars arrive at the cabin. At last, the fun can begin. The cabin is being visited by a group of friends from the city. They have plans of fishing, swimming, hiking and some quality good time partying. BeckyJane looked up at the cabin. The front almost looks like a face with the stairs smiling. Its rustic but large enough to house 14 people for the weekend. The guests start filing into the cabin calling rooms and couches. The cabin was lent to FridgeMagnet from a work associate who told him to have good time this weekend. He took the largest room which he expected to share. BeckyJane and Asrai took a smaller room as did MissMyla and Saya.
FoXeE, hopey, Lies, freckle, ROCKADIVA took the loft that was roomier than it looked from downstairs. StephenDedalus quietly put her stuff in FridgeMagnets room. The couches next to the fireplace were left for nofiradio, hypnogogic and walker. They didnt mind, closer to the booze anyway. They settled in, making drinks, unpacking, and stretching from the long car ride. The sun was out and it was unusually warm for an October afternoon. They realized that they did not bring enough food. BeckyJane, Asrai, Saya, and MissMyla took one of the cars and headed back towards the store. The others got drunk and decided to go down by the lake.
BeckyJane pulled into the store lot. No other cars, no signs of business whatsoever. As the girls entered the store they saw a poster next to the door. It had pictures of 5 missing girls. Underneath each picture was a name: Didi, Euthanasia, Kaylin, Little_Darlin and Maraschino. It continued to read Any information of these missing girls whereabouts please contact Sheriff MrsPat immediately. The store was musty. It hadnt been cleaned in weeks. Not much food, a lot of maps and books for local tourism. A lady came out from the back. Hey there, my name is Robotsatemyhair. What brings you ladies way up here?
Were staying at a cabin up the road here and we need some supplies
Robotsatemyhair looked at the girls intensely.
I dont have much food. Nobody comes around anymore. But go ahead and have a look around
The girls grabbed what they needed, some bread, chips and water. As they paid for it, the clerk slipped a book into their bag.
This ones free. Please take it, you might find it interesting.
The lake was about a 2-mile hike from the cabin. The group made their way down and laid on the field. Three fishermen were down along the shore.
I didnt think there would be other people here. Were in the middle of nowhere.
Nofiradio and hypnogogic went to down to greet them.
Hows the fishing?
Not good, I think its a little late in the season. My name is ProperNoun, this is Kobi and sillyokio. How long are you people staying?
Just the weekend. I wanted to hike up some of these trails and get a few pics.
Be careful, pretty treacherous terrain up those hills. Were camping down the lake a bit. Its quiet and the trees keep the wind off our backs
Thanks for the tip
Walker needed to take a piss so he ventured up the woods a little bit to get some privacy. He walked behind a tree and something caught him out of the corner of his eye. A woman dressed in a red robe was walking towards him. She was singing
Across the lake
Across the field
Youll feel our horror
No walls can shield
Your very skin
Your very bone
Will soon be ours
Youre not alone
Who are you?
My name is Bettiegirl. I came out here 5 years ago with my sister lioness4. Did you like that song? I heard it 5 years ago. Youll hear it. Youll hear it again soon enough. Youll hear it before you die. Youre all going to die.
That night people congregated around the fire. Walker was trying to forget the mysterious girl he saw in the woods. He kept drinking. The girls were back unpacking the food. BeckyJane looked at the book that Robotsatemyhair gave her. It looked like an ordinary history book about the area. It was filled with black and white photos of logging operations, small dams, and miners. She turned to a section talking about local legends. She started reading a story about sightings of strange, beautiful women in the upper hills of the coalmines and logging roads. It is said that long ago a man was killed in a logging accident but foul play was suspected. His wife wanted an investigation but none ever took place. It was also believed that her and some followers were suspected of witchcraft and performing satanic rituals seeking their own justice. One night a group of local police, loggers, and other townspeople stormed her house and killed her and her followers. They mutilated the bodies and buried them deep in the forest. They never mention the husbands name, but the woman was known as kriss.
Hypnogogic was just finishing his twelfth beer when he started to feel a bit queasy.
Im going outside for some fresh air.
He stumbled his way down the path and rested against one of the cars.
Did my sister warn you?
Half drunk and dizzy, Hypnogogic looked around to see a young woman in a red robe looking at him; her face colorless, her eyes, lifeless. But Hypnogogic was too dizzy to really notice.
My name is lioness4. My sister BettieGirl came to you earlier and tried to warn you. Please, you must all go. Death and horror is on its way. It is night. It is their time. Leave!
What, are you fucking crazy? Where did you come from?
Lioness4 eyes shifted away from Hypnogogic and turned towards the dark shadows of the forest.
They are here.
Hypnogogic straightened himself up and looked over into the forest. To his amazement, three beautiful women were standing next to a tree. They were singing quietly. They had very little clothing and hypnogogic seemed drawn to them. They chanted each others name to him. Clover, Porphyria, Vixen! They circled him, touching his face, chest. He heard them singing louder.
Across the lake
Across the field
He thought he was dreaming, fantasizing! Their bodies tightened around his. A smell reached him. It was not pleasant. It reminded him of rotten meat. Something warm ran down his face. He shifted his eyes upward and saw what looked like a woman floating over him. Her face was sunken, her eyes were blood. Blood.blood.bloodBlood!
It was blood, his blood. He looked down and saw three horrible face of utter terror. Their eyes of blood and sinister black-tooth grins were upon him and began to eat his flesh.
Sarahjane was trying to straighten the car out as she drove through the night. She was looking at a map that her sister Beckyjane gave her to find the cabin. She wished she could have gone earlier with the rest of the group and not have to find her way at night. She pulled over to a store and saw two people standing outside.
Excuse me, do you know how far mile post 18 is from here?
Youre on it! But thats a rough road at night, lots of holes in the road and sharp turns. It wouldnt be smart going up there tonight.
But I need to. I have to meet people
Tell you what, were heading out that way. So, if you dont mind giving us a lift, well help you get to your friends, deal?
Umm.ok, hop in. My name is Sarahjane.
Nice to meet you Sarahjane. This is honubandit and Im kriss.
As the night grew later, alcohol began to take hold. ROCKADIVA and FoXeE danced around the fire while Fridgemagnet played guitar. Lies, Asrai and freckle continued taking shots. Saya and Missmyla were laughing hysterically about something. Hopey and StephenDadalus were dancing with nofiradio. But Beckyjane kept on reading about the local legends and started to become uneasy. Walker was not feeling well too. He noticed Hypnogogic hadnt been back for a while. He went looking for him. As he got up, hopey asked where he was going.
Have you seen hypnogogic anywhere?
No, not for awhile. Lets go look for him.
Hopey and Walker went outside calling for hypnogogic. The air was still and it was much colder than earlier. Hopey shivered.
Why is he out here, its freezing. I hope he didnt pass out.
Walker ventured around the cabin thinking maybe hypnogogic had passed out. As he turned the corner, a hand was placed on his shoulder. A foul smell reached his nostrils.
Hypno, is that you?
A face appeared in the cabin light. It was hypnogogic but dead. His eyes were sunken. His skin gray and crawling. Blood dripped from his mouth. Walker froze! His friend did not look well. With savage force, hypnogogic ripped open Walker, tearing at his abdomen. Walker barely screamed as he fell. Hopey thought she heard something behind the cabin. As she made her way, a figure stood upon the grass in the moonlight. It looked like the body of a woman. She was wearing nothing but a coat. Her body moved eloquently in the moonlight towards hopey.
Who are you?
My name is Eireann. Ive been waiting for you hopey.
She pulled back her coat revealing herself. Hopey was frightened at first but looking into this womans eyes, she became lost. The kiss was magical, sending fire down hopeys spine. Was this a dream? Am I loosing it? Hopey then heard groaning behind her. She turned around to see two disfigured looking monsters that looked sort of like hypnogogic and walker. She became startled and looked back at Eireann. The sinister black-tooth grin was waiting for her. It sunk its teeth into her neck and devoured her soul.
The party was dying down. Fridgemagnet and StephenDedalus adjourned upstairs. Beckyjane had also gone to bed but she couldnt sleep. She was worried that her sister wouldn't show up and was lost. Also, that story made her insides turn. Saya and Missmyla had gone to bed. Nofiradio, ROCKADIVA, FoxeE, freckle and lies were still up. Nobody knew where Asrai was.
Fridgemagnet and StephenDadulas were in bed enjoying the moment. His earlier guitar playing and the alcohol were paying off for him. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time. While they were having sex, they could sort of hear something outside the door. It sounded like something was breaking. Nevermind, Fridgemagnet had more important things to do. The door suddenly opened. Both of them jumped at the shock of someone intruding. The silhouette was that of a woman, barely clothed. Fridgemagnet could tell by the shape it was hopey. This made him even more excited, getting with StephenDedalus was something he had been working on for a while but a threesome with her and hopey would be beyond his wildest dreams.
Youre just in time hopey. I was warming her up for you.
Hopey walked slowly in the dark room towards the bed. As Fridgemagnet reached out to touch her breasts, hopey grabbed a hold and bit through his arm, tearing at the bone. Blood squirted all over the bed. Fridgemagnets throat was ripped out as hopey feasted on his bloody flesh. StephenDedalus screamed and tried to escape. Hopey grabbed her leg and pull her back to the bed. With one strong bite, hopey crushed StephenDedaluss skull, spilling brains all over the pillows.
Beckyjane heard the screams and she ran to the door as well as MissMyla and Saya. In the living room laid freckle, lies, FoxeE and ROCKADIVA. Hypnogogic and Walker were standing over them. Nofiradio was backing away on the floor calling for help.
What the fuck is going on? They grabbed Nofiradio and the four of them ran out of the cabin. Beckyjane was hoping someone had car keys on them but it didnt matter. As soon as they got outside, they found that all three cars were burning.
What is happening? Why would someone set the cars on fire?
Suddenly, a pair of car lights came towards them in the distance. Beckyjane hoped like hell it was Sarahjane coming. They could get in and leave. But it wasnt Sarahjane. It was an SUV with a sheriffs sign on the side. Out stepped sheriff MrsPat with two other officers named BlueValentine and SarcasticMenance.
Thank god youre here. Please help us. My friends are in there. Some of them are dead. And I think Walker and hypnogogic killed them. Please help us
MrsPat looked at them.
We just came from the corner store up on the highway. It seem someone decided to kill Robotsatemyhair and spread her body parts all over the store. We followed the freshest tire marks from the location. It led us here. You people are in a lot of trouble.
Sheriff MrsPat ordered everyone to stay put.
Im going inside with BlueValentine. SarasticMenance, keep an eye on these kids, make sure none of them try to run.
SaracasticMenance put her hand to her side and pulled out her firearm. MrsPat and BluevValentine entered the cabin. Nothing, no signs of any bodies but some furniture was broken. They also found whiskey and blood on the carpet.
Either these kids are liars and trying to cover up their tracks or just as MrsPat was going to finish her thought something slammed itself on top of her from above. With one bite it ripped out the back of her head. Blood spilled everywhere. BlueValentine jumped back and shot. Three bullets hit the chest of what was once Fridgemagnet, now a rotting corpse hungry for new blood. BlueValentine tried to run but she found herself surrounded by a fresh host of zombies. Lies, ROCKADIVA, FoXeE, hopey, freckle, walker, StephenDedalus, hypnogogic all attacked her, ripping her to shreds. This was one victim not returning as the undead. Outside the remaining survivors could hear the gunshots. SaracasticMenance drew her gun away from the crowd and called out.
Sheriff, BlueValentine, are you alright? No answer. Nofiradio quietly opened the police SUV, the keys were still in the ignition. He motioned silently to Saya, MissMyla, and BeckyJane. They all quickly moved to the car. As SaracasticMenance walked closer to the house, MrsPat stepped out the door.
What the hell happened in there? Wheres BlueValentine? She got closer to MrsPat but soon found out that who she was talking to wasnt alive anymore. SarasticMenance tried to fire but too late. MrsPat bit into her arm and slowly began to devour her. Nofiradio started the car and with tires screaming, sped out into the black forest. The girls looked for anything they could find useful in the car. Underneath the seats were two shotguns and some boxes of shells. The back was equipped with flashlight and what looked like a small baseball bat.
What are we going to tell the police?
Fuck it, I just want to get out of this forest now.
This road takes forever. It could be hours before we reach someone. Nofiradio kept driving faster to get far away as possible. Suddenly something jumped out in front of them. The brakes were hit and everyone was thrown forward. MissMyla looked up to see Asrai coming towards them crying.
What the hell are you doing out here?
I went outside to get some fresh air and I ran into hypnogogic. He looked awful. He attacked me but I got away. Thats when I saw these things that looked sort of like women. They were by our cars and then suddenly, the cars caught on fire. I ran and thought I saw a car coming but it didnt stop for me. Where is everybody else?
Get in, no time to explain now.
Asrai got in and they kept on going. They remembered the road only being 40 miles but it seemed like they had been driving for 3 hours. No sign of any other road, just dust and beyond that, darkness.
What the fuck, where is the fucking road? We should be there by now. Nofiradio was trying to use the police radio to call for help but nothing, only static. The five of them were lost in the woods.
Do you think we miss the turn off?
There was no turn off, no other road, no other way to go.
What the fuck are we going to do now guys?
Nofiradio rolled down his window to hear if a major road was close. Nothing, no wind, no animals, he couldnt even hear himself breath.
Ive never heard things be so quiet
For some reason, Nofiradio put the car in reverse and turn around heading back towards the cabin.
Are you fucking nuts?
The car sped down the road flying over the bumps in the road and nearly going over on its side as it turned.
Nofi, what the fuck are you heading back for? Theyll kill us all.
Nofiradio stayed quiet and kept driving. Up head, a light appeared to the side of the road in the trees. It looked like a fire. The car slowed down and they could tell it was a campsite. Nofiradio stopped the car and grabbed a shotgun. Beckyjane grabbed one too and followed him.
What are you guys doing?
Looking for answers, survivors, anything
They reached the campsite, no car. The fire was small but visible enough and a small tent was placed not too far away.
Hello, anybody here?
A man came out of the tent looking half asleep.
Oh shit, youre not here to rob me are you? I knew America had lots of crime but I thought at least the woods are still safe? Please, we dont have much. My wife and I are not rich and we dont have very much American money.
What, no, were not robbing you. How did you get out here though? I dont see a car.
Were from Australia. My name is Minceir and my wifes name is vivacious_vixen.
We came out here for a few days vacation. We left our car at a nearby ski resort. We love walking and thought this was a good place to stay for the night. What are you doing here and armed?
We just came from a cabin up the road. We came out with some friends but some terrible things have happened. Things I cannot explain. People are dead or at least at first but somehow they come back and are killing others.
You mean zombies. Fucking America!
Vivacious_vixen made her way out of the tent to see what the trouble was about. Soon MissMyla, Saya and Asrai joined them.
The car was getting cold. We need to sit by the fire for a while.
Nofiradio continued talking to Minceir.
If I were you, I would leave immediately. There is something out in these woods, something evil and it wants all of us.
Well, weve camped out in the outback and heard lots of strange stories. The wild can play tricks on the mind, make you see things that arent there. You still havent told me why you have shotguns. But then again, maybe its none of my business. I dont want trouble.
They huddled around the fire more. Saya looked up and saw something pass through the woods. She heard crying.
Does anyone hear that?
Hear what?
That crying, it sounded like it was coming from over there.
There are no sounds out there, only those things. Were leaving soon. Dont get comfortable.
But Saya didnt listen. She got up and tried to follow the sound. It didnt take her long. She saw a young girl, crying next to an old tree that looked dead. Saya raised her flashlight and saw a ghostly face starring at her.
Who are you?
My name is broken_princess. I used to come up here with my family on summer holiday. We would camp around this area and go swimming. There is a lake not far from here. Did you know? But then one day, when I was swimming I felt something touch my leg. I didnt know what it was at first but soon it grabbed me and pulled me under. Whatever you do, dont go near that lake. There are things in it. Monsters, with hideous eyes. They pulled me under and brought me to her. She took me. She took me away from my family. And now Im here forever. And youll be too if you dont survive the night.
Saya started shaking. She didnt know if this was true but something told her to believe it. Then broken_princess eyes became completely white and she screamed. The sound pierced Sayas ears and she fell to her knees. Suddenly the ghost was gone but now something else was close. Something was watching Saya. She could still see the fire and ran towards it but a cold hand reached out and grabbed her throat. All she could see was blood red eyes and a sinister black-tooth grin.
The others rose with fright when they heard the screams.
Where is Saya?
She was hear a second ago.
Something emerged from the dark. It landed in the fire. It was Sayas head, eyes rolled back, tongue out. The flames soon engulfed it as everyone screamed. Nofiradio pointed the gun and fired. Nothing but the cries of everyone was heard. The air suddenly got colder. Everyones breath could be seen in the firelight. A putrid smell arose. They all looked around and started to hear laughter. Figures started to appear around them, smiling and hissing. The demon Clover crawled in on all fours sniffing the air.
I smell fresh blood, young blood, my favorite.
Another demon named PortiaAteCoals arose from behind them. Poryhyria, Vixen and Eireann also appeared, licking what was left of Saya off their lips.
All of the rest of our little friends are here. What a nice gift this will make for her.
Nofiradio and Beckyjane pointed their shotguns at their attackers. Missmyla found a pistol between the front seat of the car and now was holding that up. Minceir grabbed an ax he used for firewood.
What the fuck are these things? You said zombies, these things look like fucking demons. Minceir was getting pissed and was ready to fight to the death.
We are not demons, we are you, or more accurately, what you will become.
Nofiradio shot Clover through her chest. Blackish blood spewed out and caught fire.
Their blood catches fire!
But soon, it stopped and her wound closed up.
Thanks, sometimes I like the taste of my own flesh but yours will do tonight. She lunged towards Nofiradio but something caught her from the side. It hit a tree and stuck there. It was a type of sword, curved and double-edged. Clover landed in front of them and quickly her head fell off. The body fell over and burst into flames. The others screamed and soon it became obvious that someone was watching and closing in.
Five women stepped into the firelight. All were armed with the same type of sword and a couple had shotguns as well. Vixen and Eireann jumped off the trees and attacked their new foe. A woman named Alukh raised her shotgun and hit Vixen in the head, blasting it clean off. Another woman named hotcurry rolled in the path of PortiaAteCoals and stuck a blade into her abdomen. The demon cried out in pain as hotcurry grabbed a blade from behind her back and cut off the head. Porphyria tried to escape but a woman emerged from the shadows, and stuck her from behind. Her name was Whitewidow, it was her sword that stuck in the tree. She sliced off Porphyrias head and wiped the blood away. The demon Eireann managed to escape. Two of the hunters tried to track her but it was too dark.
Sorry were late. If we had found you sooner, maybe your friend would still be alive.
My name is Alukh, my friends are Awesomejossie, hotcurry, Whitewidow, lankakitten. And I assume you already have met those other things. They have been hunting you for a while now. But, weve been following them, tracking their smell, you can hear them sometimes, if you can hear anything out in these woods.
Minceir looked at them with utter confusion.
Who the fucking hell are you people? How did you know about them and how to kill them?
If you come with us, well tell you everything.
A car will do you no good tonight. You are trapped as we all are trapped. It is night and we are in their world now. It may seem like a forest but its not. These woods have eyes and ears and they are watching us right now.
Alukh explained to them that this area of the forest is under a dark curse and many people have gone missing over the years since the incident with a woman named kriss.
Kriss and her followers were murdered to prevent any kind of backlash over the death of her husband. No one really knows what happened to him but its obvious now that she will never rest until every last soul on earth is consumed. Her demons capture young woman and feast on their souls. Eating their souls is what keeps the gateway open between our worlds. Right now, were looking for the missing girls. They are somewhere up in the hills on the other side of the lake. Kriss needs to consume as many souls as possible before dawn or shell be too weak to carry on. Were hoping the girls are still alive.
But how do you know all this?
Well for one, Ive been able to see demons all my life. I cant explain that. Its only here are they able to reach the living. And second, Maraschino, one of the girls captured, is my sister and I know she is still alive.
BeckyJane thought about her sister and prayed that she didnt make the trip.
What about all our friends back at the cabin? They were walking around but they looked like they had been torn to pieces.
Bitten by demons, their poison spreads. Your friends are dead, what you see now are nothing but walking death, made to serve its master.
How are we going to get across the lake? Its at least a 5 mile hike around it.
We have boats that we brought down earlier today but it wouldnt do us any good. You cant see them during the day and we would never find the girls.
A harsh cold wind suddenly blew through the trees. A high-pitched scream echoed from the darkness chilling everyones blood.
Its kriss, shes watching us.
A sinister figured appeared from the darkness. Eireann crawled towards them, screaming and hissing.
Im glad to see you havent left.
The same smell that they noticed earlier was now upon them and stronger than ever. Bodies emerged from all over. BeckyJane could see what was left of her friends. Walker, hypnogogic, hopey, FoXeE, lies, freckle, Fridgemagnet, StephenDedalus, ROCKADIVA were slowly marching towards them. Their eyes glazed over white, their skin blue and crackled. The sheriff and SaracasticMenance were among them too. All dead and hungry for flesh blood. For a moment, everyone stood still, then suddenly Fridgemagnet ran towards BeckyJane and without the slightest pause she fired right into his face. His rotten skull shattered and his body keeled over. The others advanced. The hunters quickly fought off the zombie attack. Nofiradio blasted an arm off hypnogogic and with barrel to head destroyed what was left. Hopey attacked MissMyla but soon lost her head to hotcurrys sword. Minceir chopped his way through the zombie attack but heard his wifes scream. Zombie Lies had bitten vivacious_vixen and now was feasting on her head. Minceir ran to her and jammed his ax into her head, shooting the eyeballs out of the skull. With another hack he cut off her head and looked at his wounded wife. Suddenly a fist emerged from Minceirs chest as zombie Walker grab at his throat and begin to devour. Vivacious_vixen screamed in horror. Walker continued to feed as a gun barrel jammed into the back of his skull. Whitewidow pulled the trigger and destroyed zombie Walker. Vivacious_vixen kept screaming as her mouth filled with blood. With her other hand, whitewidow pulled her sword.
Im sorry.
And with one swiped sliced vivacious_vixens head off. All the zombies had been destroyed except SarasticMenace who was putting up a good fight with only one arm now. Alukh and Awesomejossie were facing off with demon Eireann. Nofiradio pumped his shotgun as he approached the cornered zombie, she looked at him with dead white eyes and started laughing. He shoved the barrel down her throat and gave her a little smile. As the shotgun went off, the head flew in a nearby tree and splattered. Blood poured from the neck as the body fell over, still. Eireann screamed and tried to scale a nearby tree. Awesomejossie was quick to catch her and sliced off both legs. The demon fell to the ground. Alukh bent over and with a quick swipe the head was gone. Eireanns screams died among the flames and ash.
We need to cross the lake. This attack was only meant to slow us down.
They walked quickly down a steep woody hill and in front of them appeared the lake, sparkling in the moonlight.
The boats are hidden down a ways in some brush. We make a straight shot for the other side. We believe kriss hides in the foot of those hills on the other side.
The survivors quickly found the boats and carried them to the water.
No motors, you mean were going to have row across the fucking lake?
Yes, you want to stay here and try to survive the night?
Everyone got in the boats and soon enough they were off. The shoreline was getting more distant and faint as they pushed on farther. In one boat was Alukh, whitewidow, Beckyjane, Asrai and Nofiradio and the other, MissMyla, Awesomejossie, hotcurry and lankakitten. Alukh had a worrisome look on her face and she kept looking at the water.
Beckyjane notice this and leaned in towards her.
What is it? Whats troubling you?
Tonight weve killed five demons. But I know there are more. Why havent they shown up yet? What are they waiting for?
MissMyla curled up tighter as the wind begin to come off the water. It was bone chilling. She stared into the water and began to feel sleepy. All of a sudden she realized that the face in the water was not her reflection but the face of a young girl, rotted, dead and yet very much alive. MissMyla heart dropped and felt something underneath the boat shift and move. Hotcurry was rowing when suddenly something grabbed the ores from underneath the water.
What the fuck?
The ores ripped from her hands and were pulled into the water. Alukh suddenly realized why the other demons had not attacked yet. They were waiting, waiting in the lake! Lankakitten tried to hold herself steady when from behind someone lunged out of the water and grabbed a hold of her biting her neck and pulling her out of the boat. MissMyla screamed as she tried to reach for her gun. As she turned, a zombie was already half way out of the water. It was sillyokio, the girl who was fishing earlier that day. She lunged at MissMyla and bit into her cheek. Blood sprayed as Awesomejossie sliced off sillyokios head. The head fell into the boat as more blood sprayed all over MissMyla who went into shock. Another fisherman emerged from the water, zombie Kobi attacked the boat from the other side and grabbed a hold of hotcurry. She tried to reach for her sword but soon was dragged into the water. The lake was ice cold and pitch black. All she could see was a pair of white eyes coming towards her. She tired to surface but it was too late, Kobi bit her and she went limp. Alukh and the others were screaming from their boat. It seems they were attacking one boat at a time. But something else was in this water besides zombies. MissMyla was still screaming as Awesomejossie held a shotgun to the water. Lankakittens and hotcurrys bodies floated to the surface. Soon they would become the enemy. No sign of other zombies now. The water went still. Suddenly something flew out of the water and landed behind Awesomejossie. A demon named Mashi grabbed Awesomejossie and pulled the shotgun in tight.
Let me help you with that my dear. Mashi hissed these words. The shotgun was forced under Awesomejossies chin and fired. What was left fell over in front of MissMyla. Mashi made her way towards MissMyla when something else emerged from the water. Whitewidow took Mashi by surprised and put the barrel of her shotgun right at Mashi nose. With one blast, the demons head exploded.
Oh god please help me!
The other boat was turning around to pick them up when something in the water started churning. All of a sudden, MissMyla, Whitewidow and the entire boat was pulled under the water.
Oh shit! What the fuck is down there? Whitewidow, MissMyla!
Nofiradio had his shotgun ready as did Beckyjane. Alukh rowed back to try for an attempt at a rescue. They all leaned over to see if they could find anyone.
They are with us now. And soon youll be too. A voice came from behind them.
A beautiful looking demon was sitting at the end of the boat holding Asrai in her arms. This demon was named Xip and she was known for being quite fierce and twisted. Asrai was limp with a stream of blood down her neck. Surfacing on both sides were zombie Kobi and Propernoun.
You have failed. Trust me, what you are about to see and experience is beyond any mortals comprehension. She threw Asrai into the water. Xip lunged at Alukh and pushed her into the lake. Kobi and Propernoun swam for the fresh blood. Alukh tried to get back into the boat but Kobi pulled her under. Xip grabbed Nofiradio and pinned him down. BeckyJane tried to fire her shotgun but Xip was quick to grab it and throw it into the water. BeckyJane was thrown to the other side of the boat hitting her head. Xips hot breath was on Nofiradio. Her eyes starring into his, blood red eyes and that smile, sinister black-tooth grin. Her claws dug into his shoulders as blood erupted from his skin. Her tongue gently licking his face as she opened her mouth to feast. But BeckyJane has gotten up and with one swiped from Alukhs sword, Xips head was gone and body fell into the lake.
Alukh! Beckyjane and Nofiradio looked around to see if she was still alive. Something rose to the surface. The bodies of zombie Kobi and Propernoun floated up, headless. Alukh swam to the boat with a shotgun in her hand.
Good thing someone threw this shotgun into the water.
The three survivors regrouped themselves and patched their wounds. Alukh also gathered up all the floating bodies and decapitated them. She wasnt going to take any chances. The shore was clearer now and the three hunters gathered all ammunition they had left.
BeckyJane was thankful they were back on land. The three hiked up a steep, rocky hillside and into the dark woods.
Where is this place? Is it a cave, house?
No, it doesnt work like that. Shell find us.
The dead silence that they heard earlier was now present again. They kept climbing when suddenly they heard the sound of crying. They ran towards the sound and found a large bonfire with six stones placed equal distant apart around the fires edge. Next to each stone was a girl, naked, tied, and slashed up.
It looks like kriss was drinking the girls blood a little at a time. Keeping them weak but alive. It torments the soul making it stronger for kriss. They entered the circle looking around for signs of kriss.
BeckyJane!
Beckyjane looked over to see her sister, Sarahjane tied against the rock, her hair stained with blood, her body shivering. Beckyjane quickly cut the ropes and put a blanket around her sister. Alukh found her sister too. Maraschino was barely alive, too weak to speak.
How are the others?
Nofiradio looked around.
Im afraid some of these girls are dead.
Sarahjane managed to get to her knees.
Didi, Euthanasia and Little_Darlin were killed last night. Kriss said they will return soon. Kaylin is still alive, but barely.
Nofiradio cut Kaylin down. He carried her to the fire to warm her up and gave her some water. Alukh tried to revive her sister when suddenly a grim feeling of being watched took over her. As Nofiradio gave Kaylin some water, someone laughed behind him. He turned around quickly just enough to catch demon honubandit force her claw into his chest and ripped out his heart. Nofiradio fell to his knees. She did not bite him though. He would keep his soul.
Beckyjane and Alukh went for their guns. Honubandit wasted no time and picked up Kaylin shielding herself.
You fucking bitch, put her down.
Hounbandit laughed as she slowly backed away. From behind honubandit, another figure appeared. this one, not menacing, or evil-looking at all. It was kriss, a beautiful woman who seemed very calm.
What is going on here? Please children, put down your guns. I do not want to harm you.
Your bitch just killed Nofi, you took our sisters and killed our friends and you mean us no harm?
It is all for a greater purpose. The lives you live are meaningless. I strive for a higher purpose. Soon when this world has changed and sees things from my point of view, we can rule heaven and hell. No more death.
Kriss spoke softly but in her voice there was something hiding, some great evil ready to devour everything in site. Beckyjane and Alukh looked around seeing faces appear from the darkness. Beckyjane recognized some of them.
My friends.my friends are here.
Ghostly shadows of her friends from the cabin appeared along with the sheriff and the other officer. Many other faces of young girls appeared, all who souls had been taken by kriss. A woman named Evita1 walked by Alukh.
Please, help us.
Kriss smiled as she came closer to the fire. It lightened up her face. Her eyes glowing wild, now becoming red like her servants.
Can you see I bring peace and immortality to this world? Death from me is a gift.
Another ghostly woman named 1kiss_of_life floated by Beckyjane.
She lies, its not peace. We are damned. You must try and survive the night. Otherwise youll be hers forever.
Kriss turned back and took Kaylin from honubandits arms.
These women are now mine. You will only die saving yourselves.
Krisss bit into Kaylin neck taking every last breath. Alukh raised her gun to fire when honubandit lunged towards taking a shot to her chest. Alukh pumped her shotgun but the gun went click, out of shells. Honubandit slashed at Alukh ripping her chest open. Across the fire Beckyjane pointed her gun as hounbandit raised her claws. The shot hit perfect and honubandit head blew off as the demons body bolted into the bonfire. Alukhs lifeless body laid on the ground. Her sister ,Marschino, had already died a few minutes earlier. Kriss gave a bone-chilling scream and soon became a vision of true horror. Beckyjane picked up Sarahjane and the two tumbled their way down the dark hillside. Beckyjane could hear the screams coming closer and closer.
I need to survive the night. Thats all I need to do is survive the night.
They got near the lake towards an open field. Beckyjanes legs were tired getting weaker. Sarahjane was barely consciences. Beckyjane took the shotgun off her back as kriss stormed across the field. Her eyes, blood red and filled with hate. Her smile, sinister and black-toothed. Beckyjane knew she had one shot. She held the gun up with her remaining strength and looked kriss straight in the eyes. She pulled the trigger and click, guns empty. Beckyjanes heart sank. This was it. Kriss was right on top of them when something shined in her face. Kriss looked up to see the morning sun making its appearance over the mountains.
No, please, it cant be. Not yet, its too soon.
Kriss tried to hide but the suns rays shined on her. Her skin began to melt, her eyes bled through her skull. Bones began to turn to ash. Soon, her and half the field was ablaze. The sun was warm on Beckyjanes skin as she crawled away carrying her sister. She had noticed too that the sun seemed to come up a little earlier than usual. She wondered if someone else was watching her too; or maybe if was just daylight savings time kicking in.
It had been over four hours before Beckyjane and Sarahjane reached a road. She was never so happy to see pavement in all her life. They walked down the street hoping that someone would stop and help. Sure enough a car pulled over. A young man rolled down his window.
You ladies need some help?
Yes, please, if you can, we need a ride to a hospital.
I can do that. Theres one about 20 miles from here.
Beckyjane put her sister in the back seat and got in the passenger side.
The man was well dressed, handsome and seemed very nice.
Thank you for helping us. You have no idea what weve been through.
You guys alright though? You seem pretty banged up.
I dont know. I cant explain last night at all.
Something happen?
You can say that
I hear all kinds of stories around here. This area is filled with all kinds of mysteries. I used to be a logger. I saw all kinds of weird shit in those woods. I assume thats where you came from.
It is but its over now. My name is Beckyjane by the way.
Hi Beckyjane, my name is Aegir. Its nice to meet you. Maybe sometime soon, you can share your story with me.
Beckyjane smiled and looked back at her sister who was sleeping now. She took a deep breath and waited for sleep. Suddenly the car became very cold and a familiar smell filled the air. She looked over at Aegir who was looking at her, with blood-red eyes and a sinister black-tooth grin.
The End
