5 Chapter 5 (1/2)

”F-Frank?” Gillian mutters under her breath as she begins to look around her. Her breathing gets faster and faster, as her heart begins to race.

”This cannot be real, it's not Gillian, it's just a nightmare...” she mutters under her breath again as she looks down at her feet and closes her eyes.

”Just wake up in the bar, where you were before you... possibly passed out... this is all just a horrible nightmare” Gillian told her self again, gripping her hands into fists.

Everything was quiet until an explosion broke the silence. Gillian shook her head from the fright and opened her eyes to see what just happened, she began to back up as a thick cloud of dust and smoke began rolling towards her.

She was forced to cover her face with her arms from the flying debris.

Slowly beginning to uncover her face from her arms, she looks from side to side as she has been digested by the cloud of smoke, glowing in a luminous yellowy- orange colour. She covered her nose with her top from the smoke and dust and she begins to walk forward.

”I got to help whoever needs help,” Gillian tells herself as she looks around trying to see anyone that needs help, but the cloud of smoke and dust is making it hard to do so as it decreased the visibility. The cloud seems to have become thinner, suddenly, Gillian spotted a body or two, dead.

”I hope that there are some survivors, I hope that Frank survived,” Gillian tells herself as she continues searching for survivors and Frank.

”Maybe if I go closer to the fire, I could find some survivors?” Gillian thought to herself as she looks to her left, where the light is the brightest. She hesitates for a moment or two before making her first movements towards the fire, and the ruins of where the club used to be.

With every step, the cloud consisting of smoke and dust got thicker and thicker, and with every breath, it got harder and harder to breathe. Very soon, Gillian began to cough, abruptly, the cloud began to irritate her throat while her eyes began to burn.

Gillian suddenly jumped as she felt something rub against her ankle, she quickly turned and looked to the approximate place where she felt the rubbing sensation, she quickly found out, with relief, that it was a bumper of a car sticking out, she continued walking in the direction that she was originally heading.

As Gillian continued walking, she noticed that the cloud began becoming thinner again, and she can see some fire, and a few more bodies burnt and dead.

”Frank has to be somewhere here...” Gillian thinks to herself as she looks around, she was able to see further as the cloud got thinner.

Gillian spots another body, that seems to be twitching, she began to feel slightly nervous, but also relieved that she is probably not the only one in this town, haunted by zombies. She quickly walks over and kneels beside that body, that seemed to stop twitching.

”Are you okay?” Gillian asked the person who she is kneeling by, becoming concerned. No answer, nor any sign. Gillian cannot see the face of the person, as it is lying on its stomach, with its face facing away from her. ”Is it asleep?” she thought to herself. Gillian decided to reach out her right hand, she placed it on the right arm on the unconscious body. Immediately, Gillian got shivers, the arm felt ice cold, she could feel shivers going through her spine, but she shook them off.

She gripped her hand around the arm of the unconscious body and began to slowly pull towards herself, as the body began turning, she noticed the heavily bloodied shirt, very damp to touch.

”Hey, are you oka...” Gillian began speaking but gets suddenly interrupted by the gruesome sight, there is blood all over its face and it seems as if the jaw has been ripped off. The force of the ripe caused the left cheekbone to become exposed, the eyes were wide open staring at Gillian, as if the body was staring into her soul, she got horrible vibes soaring through her body as she got up onto her feet and began to back away from the body, slowly, suddenly, the body twitched causing her to twitch with every move she took, walking backwards. She also very quickly noticed a massive slash in around the stomach area. There was a puddle of blood stretching out towards Gillian, draining from the body.
