Free Zombie Games (Book 4): Road Kill by Kristen Middleton Page A

of Gollum, from ‘Lord of The Rings’, especially when he opened his mouth and exposed several rotted teeth. As the zombie put his face against the glass and stared at him with longing, he felt the hair stand up on the back of his neck.
    Precious…
    “We have to get the hell out of here before more of these things show up,” he said, turning away from the drooling zombie. “I’m going to distract them and then you two are going to run.”
    “ Run? Where?” asked Allie.
    “Get to the very top of the ramp,” he said. “The roof. I’ll meet you there.”
    “Why don’t we try the elevators first? There’s usually a door separating the elevators and the garage.”
    “You forget. There’s probably no electricity for the elevators. We’ll just get trapped inside with zombies surrounding us. Just meet me at the top of the ramp and we’ll try to locate another vehicle.”
    “What if they get you?” cried Kylie, her lips trembling.
    “I won’t let them.”
    “But…”
    “Kylie, I’ll be fine,” he said, grabbing her hand. “Don’t worry about me. Just get to the top of the ramp and hide until I meet you both there.”
    She nodded. “Okay.”
    He reached under the seat and pulled out a bat. “Take this with just in case. And here,” he said, opening up the glove compartment. He pulled out a large hunting knife with a black handle. “I almost forgot about this.”
    “I can’t use that,” said Kylie as he handed the knife to her.
    “You will if you need to, unless you want to die,” said Justice, handing the bat to Allie. “Now, get ready to run as soon as the zombies start chasing me.”
    “What are you going to use?” asked Kylie.
    “My gun and I still have the machete,” he said, pointing towards the bed of the truck which was now completely filled with zombies. “I just have to get to it.”
    “How are you going to get out of the truck?” asked Allie, staring at the group of zombies pawing at the windows. “There’s, like, over twenty zombies out there.”
    He pulled out his revolver and unlocked the door. “Like this,” he said, slamming the door into the Gollum-zombie, knocking him backwards. “The roof!” he yelled, clamoring out of the trunk and slamming the door.
    The girls watched as Justice shot Gollum-zombie and then two more.
    “Look out!” shrieked Kylie, as more zombies advanced towards him.
    Raising the machete, he began swinging and moving away from the vehicle while the zombies followed.
    “Okay,” said Allie , when the zombies had all seemed to have forgotten about them. “We should go.”
    Kylie unlocked the passenger-side door and they both slipped out of the truck.
    “Oh my God,” whispered Kylie , as they crouched down. “More zombies.”
    Three zombies had entered the parkin g lot with their noses in the air, sniffing. It didn’t take them long before they noticed the commotion on the other side of the parking lot, where Justice was still swinging away, and moved in that direction.
    “Come on,” said Allie, grabbing Ky lie’s hand.
    The girls ran towards the next level of the ramp and ducked behind a van , when they noticed another zombie wandering down from the second level.
    “Keep going, keep going,” pleaded Allie as he shuffled closer to the van. When it stopped and began sniffing the air, both girls looked at each other in horror.
    “Oh no, he must smell us,” whispered Kylie.
    A loud growl of excitement confirmed their suspicions and seconds later, the girls found themselves facing a hungry and very scary giant.
    “Back off,” said Allie, raising the bat. “Shoo!”
    The lips on the dark-skinned zombie, who stood close to seven feet, turned up in a gruesome smile. He lurched towards the girls.
    “Oh my God!” screamed Kylie.
    Allie swung the bat as hard as she could and hit the zombie in the waist. The zombie swayed slightly backwards but then steadied itself, growling angrily.
    “Hit him again!” yelled Kylie.
    This time she raised
