Left 4 Dead: the Cole Protocol
The Night
"Who's the girl?" I asked, hoping Lee would forget about the food I almost stole.
"Clementine." He said with an edge. He slowly got out of his sleeping bag, still aiming the rifle at my head. "What do you want?"
I scratched my head. "An explanation. What is going on?" Lee pointed the rifle away from me, and started to walk towards a window.
"Things are coming back... Back from the dead." He said that like he expected this to happen.
"What are you talking about? Could Hades have something to do with-"
"What?" He asked, turning to me.
"Nothing," I stated. I forgot I wasn't talking to a demigod. "So what should I do?" I asked.
"Well, if you promise not to run off with our supplies, you can stay with us. You can leave and see if you can find other survivors, but we could use a hand here." I pondered the request until growling interrupted me. I turned my head over to the door, and a figure was standing in it. I couldn't make out any of its features, and I couldn't tell if it was a zombie or not.
"Lee," I whispered. "What is it?" Lee surged forward, axe in hand, smashing it into the persons head.
"What the Hell?!" I questioned. I walked over to the corpse laying on the ground, a few meters from Clementine.
"How'd you know it was a zombie?" I asked.
Lee retrieved his axe from the corpses head. "Lucky guess."
This guy was dangerous, and now I wasn't sure if I could hang around this guy. If his temper blew, he could easily take a swing at me.
"Get anything you can find. That includes a weapon. We're heading out in the morning." Lee said, shaking Clementine's shoulder.
"Where are we going?" I asked, picking up a small pipe.
Lee turned to me. "Savannah."
Omgs, an update is needed.
