London Bridge Is Falling
I'll Run To You When The Sky Is Red
Running, we couldn't stop running. The Infected were chasing us and Finn was nowhere to be found. Luke grabbed my hand, tears ran down his cheek. After all we've been through, we can't die yet. Selena took the lead, running as fast as she could. We stopped immediately, Infected gathered in front of us.
"Fuck!" Jill screamed. "We're Fucked!" She pulled out her pistol and fired at the Infected, hitting only a few of them.
Luke pulled me into a hug, I could feel his tears soak through my shirt. The Infected circled us, not doing anything. They just looked at us, chomping their jaws. Lucy and Selena were back to back, making sure none attacked us from behind. I closed my eyes and let my mind drift off into distant memories. My mom cooking the best pasta, bonfires with Jake in my backyard. My parents loved Jake like he was part of the family. And now we're going to be eaten alive, no one will be left to expose what happened here. Jets flew over our heads.
"We have friendlies down there" A pilot said, I could hear him through my radio.
"Fuck" Another pilot said.
"Hello" I said into the radio, my voice shaky. "Please get us...We're here with Scarlet Lema, Special Tactics Squad and Jill Matthews"
"Two agents" The man said. "Make your way to the Isle of Dogs...A helicopter will pick you up, you have 45 minutes"
We took off running, plowing through the crowd of Infected. They didn't seem to notice us until we got halfway down the road, It was like they were wired not to see us. We ran, our shoes hitting against the pavement. A group of Infected came flying out of the windows on the apartment building beside us. These Infected looked mutated, they were pale white, their fingernails were claws. One grappled onto Selena's shoulder and sunk it's razor sharp teeth into her neck, then pulled a chunk of flesh off and spit it out onto the ground. She knocked it off, grabbed the wound and kept running. But she couldn't keep up, she fell to her knees and let her hand slide off of her neck, blood sprayed on the asphalt.
"Selena!" Lucy screamed, partially heading back for her.
"No, Lucy...We have to go!" Jill said, pulling her along.
I looked back at her, she smiled then fell face down into the pavement. We didn't stop running, we sped up. Jill and Lucy close behind Luke and I. We rounded a corner, the Isle of Dogs was so close, I could taste freedom. A group of the mutated Infected jumped from a building, splitting us apart.
"Shit, watch out!" Jill yelled, shooting at them.
"Behind you!" Scarlet screamed.
I smashed the butt of my pistol over and over against an Infected's skull. Lucy swung her machete around, slicing them up. Luke was pinned down, my worst nightmare was coming true. It bit into his shoulder, Luke let out a terrible scream and went limp. I grabbed the Infected and tossed it onto the ground then slammed it's head against the pavement until there was nothing left. Luke pushed himself against a brick wall and held his shoulder. Jill and Lucy watched in horror. I fell to my knees beside him and cried.
"Am I...One of them?" He asked.
I lifted one of his eyelids a bit, blood poured into the whites of his eyes. "No" I said slowly. "You're not"
I pressed my lips against his then looked back into his eyes, the blood was gone and I wasn't Infected.
"His Immune system destroyed the virus" Lucy said, smiling. "That's amazing!"
It was amazing, Luke was alive. I picked him up off of the ground and wrapped my arms around him. We continued to walk towards the Isle of Dogs. The Infected stopped chasing after us and we were right on time. Scarlet tapped my shoulder and smiled, we were all excited to be finally free of this hell hole. The past few weeks have been terrible and I'm ready to get the fuck out of here.
The helicopter landed in front of us, the intense wind from the propellers actually felt good on my skin.
"Let's get you guys home!" The pilot said, helping us inside.
"Finn Ryan...Have you heard from him" Scarlet asked.
"Yeah, his chopper went down, we think it was caused by rogue military"
Once we got a bit out of London, there was a loud bang and a light that blinded us for a few seconds. A large wind hit the helicopter, rattling it a bit. I looked back at the city that was now engulfed in a huge ball of light. The light disappeared and did one last gust of wind. London was gone, the whole city was gone. There was nothing but a hole. According to the military, every city was being vaporized. I grabbed Luke's hand and rested my head on his good shoulder. We were finally free of hell.
"So" Jill said, she was sitting directly in front of us with Lucy and Scarlet beside her. "What's the plans now?" She asked.
"We expose what happened here, we can't let them cover it up...The nightmare ends here" I said
"I like that Idea" Jill smiled and looked out the window.
I took one last look outside and smiled to myself...It's good to be going home, but a part of me remains in London.
5 MONTHS LATER.
Infected walk the streets of California, making it their home now. We formed a group called Bio-terrorism Tactics and Rescue (B.T.A.R) we've recruited tons of people and have branches all over the United States. The world knows what the Government did and we're gonna put a stop to it, one Infected at a time. New life, new rules, new world. We've changed for the better, the Government will be stopped and we'll make sure of it. London Bridge has Fallen and a war followed with it.
