Level up Zombie

The sound of gunshots was a clear sign that the place was under attack. Immediately, the people began to panic as they did what they were trained to do. They were to head toward the back of the museum, where they could securely lock themselves away and be safe from the attacks.

While those that were able to fight were to take up arms and weapons, and surprisingly, that's what the people did. This included both Kelly and Cody as well. He wrapped his small knives around his belt and pulled two out.

While Kelly held onto a large metal pole crafted from some mop, she cut down the edge to make it more like a spear.

The group had gathered in the main hall, and they were nearly a hundred armed with weapons, while around 100 young children, elderly or injured, had gone deeper into the rear of the museum. On top of this, they also had those on the outside with guns themselves and around four on the inside with weapons pointed towards the main door.

"Everyone...get out of here." They heard a voice coming down the stairs. "Those without guns, get out of here and hide in the back. We aren't under attack from zombies but humans."

It was Ryan giving out the order with a walkie-talkie in his hand. The bullets that they had all heard weren't from their group. It was from the attackers. Although they had many more weapons, thanks to those from the hospital, the count still wasn't enough to arm everyone with a weapon.

Fighting with current weapons against those with full atomic guns was just a death trap waiting to happen.

The people quickly listened to Ryan's orders and rushed towards the back of the museum. Meanwhile, the others with the weapons were called up to the top, where Ryan was. The location was quite advantageous as it gave a better view, and they could easily target their enemies from above.

Both Kelly and Cody decided to run along with the others, and as they did, just like everyone else, they could hear the sound of bullets getting closer and closer to the door. Then, before they knew it, a large explosion destroyed the door open, and several men wearing strange masks looked to have been picked up from a Halloween section rushed into the building.

Before anyone could react, the men began to fire, killing many of those with guns, but suppressive fire from Ryan and the top hit a few of them as well, causing them to be on guard as well.

"Let us in!" A voice shouted.

Having reached the back of the museum through the hallway, they started to bang on the doors that would seal off each section. The people were piled up, knocking on the door.

"Please let us in. There are gunmen outside!!! Please!" The people begged.

But those on the inside weren't opening the door for some reason.

"They're terrified," Kelly said. "They can hear the shooting. They won't open the door because they're scared for their own lives."

"But some of these people here are related to them. How can they be so cruel?" Cody asked.

Just then, Cody and Kelly, standing toward the back of the group, noticed a few more people enter. Immediately, the two of them dived out of the way and crashed through the door that let them back into the canteen.

As they looked through the door behind them, they could see a string of bullets hitting the people, making them all fall to the ground one by one. Some had managed to escape and were trickling into the canteen as well.

"Come on! We have to hide!" Kelly said as the two of them went behind the counter where the workers would usually serve the food to the others.

Taking a peek and looking through the glass where one would serve the food, they could still hear bullets and saw a masked man step inside the canteen. He had a submachine gun tied around his neck and was wearing a musk of a skull.

Immediately, he shot at the people he could see in the room, finishing them off quickly. Cody and Kelly deduced that these mysterious men seemed like professionals.

The masked man started to walk around the room, examining to see if there were any survivors. He was looking thoroughly, so it was only a matter of time before the two of them got caught.

Cody pulled out his life and looked carefully.

"What are you doing?" Kelly whispered.

"We have to get rid of him, and we have to fight. It's the only thing we can do." Cody replied.

When the man's back was turned, Cody stood up and threw the weapon. The man turned slightly and managed to block the knife with his shoulder. It had dug deep, but it didn't finish him off.

Pulling out another knife though, Cody was ready to think again. But that was when another man entered the room.

"Cody!" Kelly shouted and raised, pushing him out of the way.

Bullets rained down on both of them, destroying the grass and shattering everywhere.

"Kelly!...oh no, you're bleeding," Cody said as he noticed a lot of blood falling from her shoulder.

"It's okay...we will be okay," Kelly said. "I have superpowers like you said, right...so let me deal with them."

After saying these words, Kelly started to run out with the metal pole in her hand. She went towards the new masked man who had entered the room. He began to fire away, hitting her right in the chest, and before she could even reach him, she fell to the ground.

Cody started to scurry against the floor and ran right by her side.

"Kelly, you idiot...what did you do..." Cody cried. His eyes were full of tears and shock.

He had no idea why Kelly would do something reckless, and now she had been hit by multiple bullets, was bleeding all over, and it looked like the bullets had hit her in the heart.

"Wait!" The first skull-masked man suddenly said, "That brat hit me with a knife. Let me get rid of them."

The man walked up to Cody, still full of tears and bloody hands. He then pushed the gun right against his head.

"You and your girlfriend can now be together. Isn't that sweet, although I think she's a bit old for--!"

Before the man could finish his sentence, his neck looked to have turned the other way. A hand could be seen behind it. When Cody looked to his left, the other masked man had a hole through his chest, almost the size of a fist and was lying dead on the floor, but that's when he noticed Kelly wasn't on the floor either.

The next moment, he heard a thud, and when he turned around, he saw Kelly standing in front of him. The bullets were being pushed out of her body and falling to the floor, but her face... was streaming with tears.

"I'm sorry, Cody...I think I might have...just become one of them." Kelly gulped. Her mouth was full of blood, and the next moment, as if out of instinct, she dug her hand through the masked man's chest, ripping out his heart and putting it straight into her mouth.
