67 Im Learning (1/2)
The infected run forward and slipped again. It fell on its jaws and blood appeared from the corners of its mouth. Its body slid to the side thanks to the green moss on the ledge.
”Calm down. Walk slowly and carefully.” Priscilla said as she balanced herself from the slippery floor. Water and moss filled the space in front of her.
It was her idea to cross the ledge and go for the other buildings rooftop. The dangerous thing about this plan was that there's nowhere to hold after reaching the other buildings side. A storage room was built on the rooftop and there were walls instead of railings.
”We'll die if they catch up!” Kevin shouted in panic.
Sam replied. ”And we might fall if we rush. Then we die.”
The two trudge slowly towards the other end. They were at least seven meters away from the other side.
An infected pounced and fell a few feet away from them. Its body started to slid forward and clawed at them, shrieking loudly while staring at them.
The three continued onwards without looking back, hoping that all of the infected would trip and won't reach them. There were at least five infected who jumped over the railing and followed them. One already died while four were still behind them. The last infected that jumped over the railing slipped and slid towards the edge. As it fell, it clawed and shrieked towards the three of them.
Priscilla hastened her steps a bit which caused her to slip when she stepped over a pile of moss. She almost slipped but was caught by Sam behind her. Priscilla thanked him and Sam nodded. He then took the lead and slowly navigated forward.
Jun watched them filled with curiousity. He took out his M16 when he noticed an infected gaining speed. It was the infected that pounced at them. Instead of trying to run, the infected began crawling forward.
Jun used Time Perse, then zoomed in as far as he could for greater accuracy.
With a twenty meter distance, the skill activation and zoom in cost him two-thirds of his energy.
Aiming through the stock scope, Jun pulled the trigger. The loud sound echoed along the hallway.
The infected was madly crawling forward when its head suddenly jolted to the side.
Sam turned his head and saw Jun firing another shot.
”Move! Don't just stand there!” Priscilla nudged him from behind.
”S-sorry.”
The three of them reached the railings on the other side of the building. When they climbed over to the other side, they finally heaved a sigh of relief. The gunshots stopped a while ago and no infected can be seen behind them except for that one infected lying on the ledge.
”What do we do now?” said Kevin.
Sam replied. ”Let's go down first.”

Sam scouted the area as they climb down the set of stairwell. He carefully scanned every nook and cranny before stepping out of the stairwell into the hallway. The first thing he noticed was the scattered blood on the distance. Pools of blood were a few meters away from each other. He doesn't know if its been a long time since it was there, but he had no plans of going anywhere near it in the near future.
