CHAPTER EIGHT

Bristol, England

Driving through the suburbs of the city was a truly depressing sight. All around them were bodies, both dead and walking. Cars were scattered about the streets, the odd building was on fire, rubbish was scattered everywhere. The creatures were less of a problem now that they were in a car, but they couldn’t drive forever. Gary was driving as quickly as he could, considering the circumstances. Too slow and any chance of saving his family would be at risk, too fast and the danger of a collision or damage to the underside of the car increased.

“Get a fucking shift on, mate!” shouted Matt.

“Don’t push me, I’m going as fast as is sensible,” said Gary.

“Fuck sensible, put your foot down!” shouted Matt.

“Quit whining like a little girl and start taking this seriously!” shouted Gary.

As they approached a four way junction two vehicles raced past in front of them, with no caution for any other potential survivors. They were probably some of the few survivors in the area, but it was now every man for himself. As they passed the junction they could see a large scattering of creatures in the direction from where the vehicles had come from.

The area was eerily silent as they drove down dirty and bloodied streets, evading the creatures they encountered. It was a busy city that they were used to working in, now there was just the sound of the odd car that people were using to escape the devastation. They could hear the odd scream from shops and houses that they drove past, but it was too late for those people.

“We’re just a few streets away now, so be ready,” said Gary.

“For what?” asked Matt.

“Honestly I don’t know, just be alert,” said Gary.

Turning the bend they found a several car pileup. A minibus was overturned and some other cars had smashed into it, there was no way through. Gary brought their car to a standstill, whilst thinking of the best response.

“Go around?” asked Matt.

“No, it’s only a short walk from here, and the car has too little fuel to get us far after we get to the house anyway,” said Gary.

“Fucking wonderful,” said Matt.

“Yeh, well come up with a better solution and we’ll do it,” said Gary.

“Alright, alright, let’s get on with it,” said Matt.

Gary cut the engine and the two men got out with their weapons. It was quite clear that any idiot could outrun these zombies, but the idea of being stuck on foot in a city full of them was a frightful thought.

“Stick close and follow me,” said Gary.

The two men walked up to the crashed vehicles and looked into the wrecked Mondeo that was closest to them. The driver was still sitting in his seat, keeled over the steering wheel. Matt looked in to see if the man was still alive, a natural instinct from their day job. His elbow guard knocked the pillar of the door and the driver suddenly twisted and looked up at Matt. The copper quickly leapt back in shock as he realised that it was a zombie.
