Chase

Over the next few weeks, many people stayed inside in self-made bunkers, mostly, knowing that radiation was dangerous but not sure how much radiation the bombs carried. It was also wise to stay hidden from the awakening Reds and those they infected. There were deaths: a man accidentally caused a fire that burned his home, taking his family and him; there were suicides; a child fell down the stairs and broke her neck; a few people in cars were less careful and crashed them; there were even a few murders and rapes.

A brother and sister, Sarah and Jake, made their way to the local big hunting/fishing/sports business and picked their intended weapons a few hours before a group of men stripped the place. If the men were there earlier, Sarah and Jake would have been tortured and killed by them.

“Look,” Sarah showed Jake a helmet.

“Naw, too heavy,” he said. They were now in a leather and motorcycle shop, searching for clothing. Both found black leather pants and sturdy boots. Sarah clipped and strapped knives onto the outside of her high boots. Above her boots, she knotted red bandanas. “Gotta have a color if we are gonna be super heroes,” she explained.

Jake found a buckskin, black shirt with laces, which he pulled tightly at the chest and neckline. To make his sister happy, he clamped on blue leather wristbands and found fingerless gloves.

Sarah considered a low cut, tight bodice that would look fantastic, but thinking of the biting Zeds, she instead went with a skin tight, thin jacket of leather that was also sexy but protective. Using red nail polish, she painted designs on the jacket and accented it. Jake admitted it was a badass look. A belt with extra clips, holsters, and a rifle slung across her back were almost her finishing touches.

Using a mirror, she meticulously braided her dark hair off her face and then coated some of the braids with the red nail polish, lacquering them. She snipped off some braids and then bound a thin bit of red bandana to the ends; if grabbed by a zed, the bandana would pull away; the look was totally cool to her. Her other touches were goggles for a steam punk look, a pocket watch on her hip, and a black, light backpack, filled with a few supplies.

“Okay, you totally look like a super hero,” Jake told her, “help me fix mine.”

Sarah looked him over and nodded. He almost protested but then allowed her to paint his bitten nails the same bright blue as his bandanas. Using the polish, she made a line under each of his eyes like a football player might have. Then, she used another three full bottles in three shades of blue to make what looked like flames across his thighs.

After shearing off most of his hair, she left one lock long and used the nail polish to spike it so it hung like a dagger over his ear. She made a few alterations to his gun belt and backpack, and then she was almost done.
