Chapter 28

October 11th 9:00am

Sophie stood at the edge of the building and peeked around the corner. Her lungs burned from running, and although she couldn’t see them, she knew the dead were close. Across the park, she could see her Mini Cooper parked right where she had left it. She reached in her lab coat and pulled out a small chain with two keys on it. One for her house, the other her Cooper. With her lung's cooling and her breathing slowing, Sophie took a final look in both directions. Pushing off the wall, her sprint was on. Even while running she was still looking both ways searching for the dead. Halfway across the park she spotted movement on both sides of her. She tried to increase her speed, but it was a feeble attempt. Her lungs were starting to burn again. She arced her path to avoid the approaching horde to the right. Just a few more feet and she would be at the Cooper. The key was already, in her hand, ready to be thrust into the locked door. Sophie put her hands out and used the car to stop her momentum. Her body thumped against the vehicle rocking it. The key slid right into the door lock. She glanced back and could see the dead were just a few feet away. Sophie opened the door and dropped into the driver’s seat. She slammed it closed and slapped at the lock just as a dead woman smashed her face against the glass. Sophie thrust her key in the ignition. As she looked up, a dead man jumped on the hood of the car, and banged his head against the windshield. With each bang, the man snapped his teeth at Sophie. It amazed her that she could hear the clacking inside of the car. She turned the key, and the engine came to life. She slammed the vehicle into first gear and popped the clutch. The Cooper took off spinning its tires, leaving the dead female in the dust. The male clutched onto the windshield wipers as Sophie made a series of right and left turns trying to shake the man off. The dead man lost his right hand grip, and that’s all it took. Sophie turned to the left, and the man flew off.

Winding through the gears, Sophie crossed St. Catherine Street and a few minutes after she was on the Champlain Bridge leaving the City. She didn’t slow until thirty minutes later when she was well outside the city. She pulled the Mini Cooper over on the side of the highway and opened the door to vomit. Sophie bent out of the car still seat belted in and left her lunch on the black pavement. She sat back up and started the car moving again. She was working her way through the gears when something caught her eye in the rear-view mirror. She looked again and saw Bob sitting in the back seat. Sophie screamed, “You just scared the shit out of me, Bob!” Bob said nothing, he just sat there staring at her.
