10 Rescuing Amanda (2/2)

”What is it? ”They” are already starting to crowd around us” Leo anxiously yelled as he noticed that he's running out of ammo already.

”Ca-can we stop by at my place? My parents are still there and -” Michelle wasn't able to finish what she was about to say when Leo cut her off.

”Is your place on the way?” Leo hastily said while he reloaded his last mag.

”Yes!”

”Alright! Go! Go! Go!” Leo said while tapping the top of the car before jumping at the back but not before taking off his Armor fearing that the car won't be able to handle its weight.

The car rushed out and Leo took a couple of steps back because of the inertia.

Looking at the car getting dents and scratches as it runs over the Zombies that got on its way, Leo felt a stabbing pain on his heart. Man, such a nice car but now its being used like this, Leo thought with a bitter look.

*****

The car stop in front of a huge 5 story apartment complex. Leo got down from the car wearing his Armor while shooting some wandering Zombies around.

Click! ~ Click! ~

”Dammit, no more bullets” Leo cursed and threw the gun on the ground.

Michelle also got down from the car and Amanda also got down but Leo immediately reprimanded her.

”Amanda, you should stay in the car”

”What?Why?” Amanda said in surprised tone.

Leo said: ”Your injury will only slow us down”.

”I can w- Fine!” Amanda pouted when she saw Leo's serious look when he took off his helmet and went back inside the car.

Leo then walked beside the window where Amanda is and tapped on it.

”What?” Amanda said in a raised voice as she pulled down the window.

”Sorry, you're safer here in the car, understand? Make sure to not make any noise so you won't attract them and don't let anyone inside no matter what happens, alright?” Leo gave his brightest smile towards her.

”Okay fine but be quick and don't do anything towards Michelle!” Amanda said blushing before hurriedly closed the car window. ” I didn't expect he's actually handsome and manly” Amanda thought while blushing inside the car.

Looking at the two people, Michelle felt envious towards Amanda” She's lucky that someone she doesn't even know came to her rescue but that Armor his wearing is pretty serious. I wonder where he got that”

Leo then walked towards Michelle and said: ”Nice place, huh?”

”Yeah but now, It isn't that nice” Michelle chuckled bitterly.

”Shall we go?” Michelle said.

”Wait a sec.” Leo said as he jog towards the dead police officer he saw and took the Glock 22 from its holster and another additional magazine and then went back to Michelle.

”Here” Leo said as he handed the gun to Michelle.

”Huh?? Isn't better for you to use it” Michelle confusedly took the gun and asked.

”Get used to using one, you will need it in the future” Leo laughed a bit.

”You're right” Michelle agreed with him as she started getting her hand familiar with the gun.

”Let's go, what floor” Leo said as he went inside the elevator.

”5th floor” Michelle entered and pressed the button.

”Good thing this still works” Leo said while looking the number of floors they are passing.

”Get behind me first, we don't what might suddenly come out” Leo said as he again wore his helmet.

Michelle didn't say anything and got behind him as she raised her gun towards the front while looking tense as she sweated from nervous ”Please be fine mom and dad” Michelle worriedly thought.

Ding! ~ The Elevator then opened as it reached the 5th floor.

Bang! ~
