24 In A Pinch (1/2)

Takashi and Rei are currently seating besides each other on top of the Humvee as they head to Takagi's house.

Takashi is looking up at the sky thinking of something then Rei asked, ”what's wrong?”.

”We haven't seen any helicopters or airplanes, but the past days we saw so many of them” said Takashi as he looked at Rei with her hair being tossed around by the wind.

”Everything will be alright, won't it?” said Rei as she too also looked up in the sky. ”Yeah, definitely” said Takashi assuring Rei.

”Hey Takashi did you notice?” asked Rei as she moved closer to Takashi and leaned her head at his shoulders. ”Notice what?” replied Takashi as he also tilted his head towards Rei.

”We haven't seen any walkers today” she said happily because after rescuing Alice and her father, when they've crossed the bridge they have still yet to met a walker.

”That's true” said Takashi only noticing this fact the moment Rei have said it. Their path towards Takagi's house is rather peaceful and tranquil because the surroundings are quiet and sakura flowers are dancing in the air.

Within this peaceful time Takashi and Rei can't help to fall asleep because the atmosphere is just way too beautiful and quiet. Suddenly Kohta yelled waking the two, ”its them!”.

”Ahead and to the right! The distance is 300!” yelled Kohta as he used his binoculars to scope out the walkers ahead.

”Turn right!” said Takagi to the driver Ms.Shizuka, ”okay” Ms.Shizuka replied back as she turned the Humvee right to avoid the walkers.

As soon as they turned another cluster of walkers are ahead, ”they're here too, jeez” said Ms.Shizuka she can't help but complain.

”Then turn left, left!” said Takagi trying her best to take the best route possible towards her house and at the same time avoiding clusters of walkers.

”What the...we're seeing more and more of them as we get closer to Higashisaka 2-chome!” said Takashi as he looked back at the walkers that are being left behind.

”But why, there must be a reason why they're suddenly appearing!” said Rei because just moments ago they can't see any walkers but suddenly here they are.

Seeing a lot of walkers at their front appeared, with no route to use as a shortcut they have no other choice but to force their way through.

”Keep up the speed and push them aside!” yelled Takagi as they brace themselves for they will go on head to head with the walkers.

Takashi and Rei then ducked at the top to avoid getting hit by the walker's body as the Humvee runs them over. Takashi is currently holding Rei's waist for her not to fall.

The bodies of the walkers kept on flying either to the side, up top or down below. ”No, dont!” yelled Rei noticing something isn't right.

Saeko then saw that a wire is layed horizontally to the road they're currently speeding over, ”a wire is affixed to the walls!” Saeko yelled.

”Turn the car to the side!” yelled Saeko because if they got caught off by the wire then the Humvee itself will topple over.

Ms.Shizuka then turned the Humvee to the left side but they're too late as soon as they turned, the car got stucked sideways making the wire hold them.

”Why won't it stop!” yelled Ms.Shizuka because the Humvee's tires kept on screeching. The blood of the walkers are currently making a pool right below the tire making it loss friction.
