Free The Zompire by Wayne Brown

was yet to return from a night fishing camp that was a yearly event in their families. When they came upon the pickup truck that was parked outside, it was a match with the one described by the family and they had unsuspectingly made their way towards the truck with a reckless abandon, believing that the men must have simply gone hunting elsewhere leaving the pickup behind. They exited their patrol car and decided to check the old building that was there. They called out the men’s names but heard no reply. It was therefore a surprise to them when a huge manlike beast came jumping out of the old truck that was in the building at them. Scared shitless, the police officers ran instead of attack as they should and the zompire himself turned around and scampered into the forests. After seeing him flee into the woods, the patrol car men were shocked beyond expectation when they re-entered the building and found the mangled and partially eaten carcass of the man and the dead body of his fishing buddy. It was a horrible sight to behold. One of the officers went outside to throw up. The other officer peeped inside once again, holding his stomach as he viewed blood splattered all over and portions and chunks of the man’s organs that were strewn all over. The officers then decided against pursuing this creature and they radioed in for help.
     
    The State Security Service picked up the information of the attack on a man and his friend night camping in the woods and immediately dispatched the nearest team to the location. They also notified the vampire control agency about the development and though it would take a while for them to get to the location, they mobilized and were immediately on their way. When the state security officials arrived with their dogs, it didn’t take long before the dogs picked up the trail and had them running in a direction, then another through different turns around the bushes and trees. They went fast for a long time before fatigue set in. They wondered how the creature could move the kind of distance they had covered on foot and so fast. They soon continued after a little rest and kept on the trail provided by their dogs. They were later radioed by the VCA team who were within the forest’s range and wanted to know where exactly they were. They gave their pilot their coordinates and waited. Seconds later, they could hear the hovering of their helicopter as it approached. They were soon just about overhead as the rope ladder was let down and they came down through it for lack of a landing space for the chopper. They related all the information they had to the VCA team as they joined them and they continued. It took them another one hour on foot before they proposed to rest again but the leader of the VCA team suggested his team go on and have the helicopter pick the rest of them who needed rest to meet up with them later. This they agreed to on the ground that splitting into two teams that keeps moving one at a time was good because every time they waste put the morphed vampire farther and farther away from them.
     
    The hunt continued till they found that they were going more and more in the direction of the canal construction site. When they figured this, they quickly called the State security service chopper which arrived minutes later and picked up a number of VCA and SSS agents and headed straight to the canal construction camp. On getting there, they found nothing. Everyone had left and the camp tents were no more. The lead of the state security service team who was aware of the suspension of the project explained what had happened briefly to his surprised colleagues, bringing them up to speed and suggested they follow him to the cave where the vampires initially stayed. Though it was bit of a distance away from the camp, the distance could be trekked on foot. Besides, he didn’t want any tip off to be caused by the helicopter sound should they have decided and thought about using the
