8 The First Time He Cursed Out Loud (2/2)
Mark gestured towards the mother. The employeelooked at the woman who had quite a short build which is about several inches less of five feet and reluctantly nodded.
Seeing that the man is quite reluctant, Mark was confused. The man's build showed that he is used to carrying heavy stuff but he actually showed such expression in carrying the woman.
Still, following what Mark said, the man put the fire extinguisher on the floor and took the woman from Ange lifting her on his arms in the position Mark's knew as princess carry. The mother also showed a little bit of hesitation and embarrassment being carried like this but she also knows the urgency of the situation and did not resist.
As she thought wrongly, Ange also had a bit of embarrassment on her face as she looked at Mark who is now holding a bat which is not dripping with blood. It seemed that they are too engrossed with the situation of the woman and they did not notice that their savior already took down several zombies. In front of him, there are several bodies that either had blasted heads or smashed skulls.
The scene of blood and gore in front of him is totally sickening and scary but his face did not show any of such emotion. Among the bodies, the man who grabbed the woman's leg can also be seen with a deep dent on his head and his orifices bleeding.
”Shouldn't it be easier if you carry her on your back?”
Mark asked as he swung his bat at the face of another zombie who lunged at him.
The man did not answer but only looked at Mark with a pleading expression on his face. Seeing this, Mark finally came to a conclusion and did not urge the man anymore.
TAM! TAM! TAM! BLAM!
It is then a sickening loud sequence of metal sounds clashing with a final sound of heavy metal falling on the floor sounded.
”Shit!”
Mark's expression changed as he cursed out loud for the first time in his life when he heard that sound.
The females together with Mark are confused to his reaction towards that sound but the face of the employee who just lifted the woman paled.
”What happened?”
Ange noticed the ugly expression of the two and asked.
”Hold this for a little bit.”
The employee seemed not to hear her question and Mark did not answer either. Instead, Mark held his bat towards her.
Ange did pursue the question anymore and received the metal bat. Mark then took the fire extinguisher and bashed its bottom on an incoming zombie causing it to stagger backward. At that opening, Mark pulled the safety pin of the fire extinguisher and squeezed the trigger aiming at the bashed zombie's face.
The zombie who had its face covered with sticky white foam started to ran towards its target once more without even trying to remove the foam covering its eyes. Trying to attack, it pounced, but not towards Mark but towards the terrace. The zombie's shoulder hit the railing but the rest of its body passed over the terrace. With the momentum of its jump and the railing stopping the force on its shoulder, the zombie kept rotating midair as it plunged to its death. With a loud splatting sound, it hit the ground two floors below.
Mark's eyes shined a bit as he then proceeded to spray the contents of the fire extinguished across the floor. And the result, the incoming fast zombies that already had bad sense of balance slipped on the foam sliding on the floor covering their bodies with even more of the foam especially the zombies' hands and feet as they try to stand up again. The sliding zombies spread the foam even more and the started having a hard time to stand up as their hands and feet slipped on the floor every time they did.
Still, even if they slipped repeatedly on the floor at this moment they are still advancing forward and this situation won't last too long.
”Okay! Run!”
As he gained more leeway for them to run, Mark rushed back to the TechZone leaving the struggling zombies behind.
