Chapter Two

Run

1.

A monster held on to the hood of the little blue Honda. He slammed his head against the windshield, cracking it into a spider webs and leaving blood on the glass. The reverse gear went in on the third try. Phebe hit the gas pedal. The car bucked into reverse. Tires squealed out of the driveway. She turned the wheel hard. The monster flew off the hood.

Monsters rushed at Syanna's side of the car. Hitting the window with their fists. Ramming their heads.

Into first, Phebe floored the gas pedal. Tires burned rubber on the pavement. The car bucked into drive and fishtailed.

Monsters sprinted alongside. Hands reached out to grab anything they could. First gear screamed. She shifted to second. Her feet moved fast to press pedals. A monster seized hold of a sideview mirror. Second gear screamed. She shifted to third. Over forty miles per hour, the monster held on to the mirror. His feet dragged along the blacktop. The mirror broke off at the base. He fell onto the street.

The little car sped forward.

A walking catatonic in a stained nightgown shuffled along the street. Phebe swerved to avoid her. The woman turned around. She was one of them. She dove on the hood and grabbed the wiper blades. Phebe slammed on the brakes. The woman hurdled onto the road. Into first, Phebe floored the gas pedal, turning to get around her. The woman lunged and the front of the car clipped her legs. Half of the hard-plastic bumper dragged along blacktop.

The Honda raced through the neighborhood grid towards South College, the closest way out.

Syanna stared in shock.

“Shit.” Phebe screamed, “What the fuck!” She wanted to hit something but feared unclenching her fingers from the steering wheel.

They approached the traffic light to South College. Phebe slowed behind two cars stopped at a green light.

Ahead, vehicles stopped in haphazard positions blocked the intersection.

Across the street, fire engulfed the stately brick buildings of the university. Vehicles strewn across the sandy lawn. A fire engine against a bent pine tree.

A mob of monsters ran at the first car at the green light. A half-dressed girl climbed on the hood. She jumped up and down on it like it was a trampoline. Others smashed out the windows. They dragged out a kicking and screaming, middle-aged male professor-type.

A huge bull mastiff walked past that car. Foam dripped from its mouth.

“Oh my God!” Syanna shrieked.

The brake lights of the car ahead turned into reverse lights. Phebe worked on reverse.

“Hurry!” Syanna shrieked.

The mastiff moved into a trot.

The car in front tried a one-eighty turn. It clipped the rabid dog. The beast turned its attention to the terrified occupants.

Foregoing reverse, Phebe hit first gear. She made a fast one-eighty turn, running over the curb. The little car took off flying down the street with fast up-shifts. Phebe took turns by riding the clutch to minimize deceleration. She drove as a racecar driver would.

Through the neighbor grid, the Honda sped out onto the other main artery.

Like a driver in an action film, Phebe weaved in and out of traffic, heading west towards Carolina Beach Road.
