throat, she screamed out in agony as the realisation that this was no longer her son set in.
“No!” shouted Travis.
He tried to step backwards, but in the panic tripped and fell to the ground. He was in utter shock having lost both his son and wife. He looked up at his wife reeling in pain, soon to die, and his son who was already bearing down on him. Travis could have got up and run, but had lost the will to live and move, and was still in too much of a state to think any different. Dennis climbed onto his father and bit into his flesh, whilst the man still looked in desperation at his dying wife.
From inside the thick stone walls of the church Roger was completely oblivious to Kelly’s screams. These shrieks of agony had however not gone unnoticed to some of the other islanders. Derek and Katy quickly grabbed an axe and club hammer from their kitchen and ran out to find the source of the problem. Reaching their neighbours’ home they could see the bodies of their friends on the ground, Dennis still biting into his father who was now lifeless. Zombies began pouring towards them from behind the couple’s house.
“Jesus Christ, we’re finished!” cried Derek.
“Let’s go!” shouted Katy.
“Where?”
Before she could answer, further screams rang out from the people who lived in the next house.
“Do we help them?” asked Derek.
“No, either they can help themselves or they are goners, let’s get to the church!” shouted Katy.
The couple got up to a jogging speed, knowing they could outrun the creatures, at least in the short term. As they ran the short distance to the church it was quite clear that they were overcome with zombies. They reached the building but the heavy wooden door was locked. They beat heavily against it, praying somebody was alive inside to open it for them. Looking around, the horde was already closing in on them with thirty creatures in sight already.
“Fuck, what do we do?” asked Derek.
The heavy bolt slid across and the big door was heaved open by Roger, he looked first at the shocked look of his two friends, and then into the distance beyond them, his expression turned to dread.
“Get inside, now!”
The couple ran in through the doorway and Roger slammed the door shut, with the creatures just forty feet from their position.
“What the hell happened?” asked Roger.
“No idea, they came out of nowhere. Kelly, Travis and Dennis are all gone, and we heard screams coming from the house next door to us.
“Christ, we’re overrun, I’ll get on the bells,” said Roger.
He ran to the bell tower of the church and immediately began to yank the ropes of the church bells, the emergency signal that could be heard across the whole island. He only hoped that there were other survivors left to hear them. He went back to Katy and Derek.
“Are those the only weapons you have?” asked Roger.
“Yes,” said Katy.
“I have some guns here, but not a huge amount of ammo, let’s break them out!”
Emptying Roger’s bag out onto a table they began to take stock of what weapons they did have. Two .357 revolvers, with twelve rounds only, a Glock with just seven rounds left in the magazine, and a sawn of shotgun with five rounds.
“This it?” asked Derek.
“Yes, there are more supplies at our house, but that’s no help to use now. I only brought these here as an emergency measure, none of us could have expected a full scale attack.”
“How did they even get here?” asked Derek.
“I have no idea, if Dave is still alive, he will probably have more answers, but that is no help to us now,” said Roger.
“So what do we do?” asked Katy.
“Any idea on the horde’s numbers?” asked Roger.
“We’ve seen about fifty, but I can bet there are a lot more out there, those were just the ones we could see,” she answered.
“Shit, then we only have a few options,” said Roger.
“Which are?” asked Derek.
“Well this place is solid, they can’t get in, we can
