Chapter 6

Author: Peachy
Ethan's hand clamped around my neck.

His fingers tightened, a rough vise. Air vanished. Death was here, right now.

I clawed at the air, desperate. My lungs burned. Nothing.

"You ruined everything..." he snarled, every word laced with murder. "My base, my life, my mother!"

I raked my nails down his arm, anything to buy one more second of life.

His SEAL training taught him perfect control.

He wouldn't kill me quickly. He would make me feel it.

My vision blurred. My mind started to slip.

I was falling into an abyss.

Just then, Chloe's venomous voice slithered into my ear. "Yes! That's it, Ethan! Think about it. Where did all the medicine in the base go?"

Her words made his grip loosen just a fraction. I gasped for air like a drowning woman breaking the surface.

But I knew it was just a breath before the storm hit again.

"The antibiotics. The painkillers. The insulin," Chloe hissed, her voice dripping with venomous glee. "She's a doctor. She took it all for some secret experiment! Those di

    The despair inside the helicopter slowly gave way to a fragile, disbelieving joy."We made it..." the young mother whispered, clutching her baby as tears streamed down her face. "We actually made it..."Danny sat beside me, his battle-hardened eyes red-rimmed."Dr. Scarlett, if it wasn't for you..." His voice broke. "If you hadn't kept us going, we'd all be dead back there."The little boy shyly walked over to me. "Thank you for saving us, Doctor," he said in his small voice.Even the pilot, usually silent, spoke over the comms. "Doctor, you're a true hero. It's an honor to have rescued someone like you."I looked at their faces, saved from the brink, and felt a warmth spread through me.This was the meaning of my rebirth.To save the innocent lives that were supposed to be lost. To stop tragedy from repeating itself.But I still hadn't been fast enough. Too many had been sacrificed...Just then, Danny, sitting by the window, gasped. "Oh my God... look down there!"I followed his gaze,

    A hopeless silence fell over us.The young mother looked at her baby, and tears rolled silently down her cheeks. "I guess we're all going to die here together..."Her words were a death sentence, crushing what little hope remained.The little boy began to sob. Danny's hand, gripping his knife, was trembling.Even the ever-ruthless Chloe had a look of raw fear on her face.Cries of despair filled the helipad. It was the sound of people realizing they were about to die.But my mind was racing.There had to be a way. Something I missed.I searched my memories of my past life, every corner of the base, every pipe, every backup system...Just then, a new sound cut through the air.Not the roar of a zombie, but the thumping chop of rotor blades.Everyone stopped crying.We looked up into the blizzard-filled sky, and the silhouette of a Black Hawk helicopter grew clearer.The National Guard. They had finally broken through the storm."Here! We're over here!" Danny yelled, waving his arms with

    The ghouls' roars filled the shelter. The shadow of death fell over everyone.As the monster lunged for her, Chloe let out a hysterical scream.She didn't dodge. She didn't run.Instead, she grabbed Ethan and shoved him directly into the path of the lunging snow ghoul."No!" I cried out.The mutant's teeth sank into Ethan's throat. Blood gushed out, staining his combat uniform.He tried to call for help, to give an order.But his windpipe was torn. All that came out was a wet, ragged gasp.Ethan's eyes went wide. He looked at Chloe in disbelief.He reached for the woman who once purred in his arms, only to find a snake."You're infected, darling," Chloe purred, her voice colder than the grave. She kicked the bleeding Ethan away. "Don't be a drain on our resources."Her words shattered the last of Ethan's illusions.He collapsed in a pool of his own blood, his eyes staring blankly at the ceiling. His lips moved, trying to say something, but only bloody froth came out.In that instant, a

    The mutated zombie’s claws tore through Jenkins’s chest.He was dragged off the terrace before he could even scream."Fire! Fire!" Ethan shrieked.Gunshots cracked through the night sky. But the creatures were too fast.They had evolved in the bitter cold. White fur. Beast-like speed.A single bite snapped Rodriguez's neck. The blood froze instantly."Fall back! To the base!"Ethan grabbed Chloe and scrambled for the snowmobile. The two remaining guards laid down suppressing fire.I was right behind them.Not to save them.The monsters were after me, too.The snowmobile's engine sputtered in the biting cold.Ethan's hands were shaking."Hurry! Hurry!" Chloe screamed.A zombie leaped onto the back. I blew its head off with the shotgun. Black blood splattered across Chloe's face.Her scream was louder than the engine.We tore down the mountain path. The snarls behind us grew fainter.But a greater hell was waiting for us.The main building of the base was on fire.The fire was the least

    Heavy footsteps crunched in the snow.Three guards came down the slope. Two of them carried a stretcher.Jenkins was the youngest, just twenty-three.When he saw the mangled remains, his face went pale."Sir… the body…" Jenkins stammered. "The shape of it… it looks like Judge Martha."Rodriguez shot him a glare."Shut your mouth! The Captain said it was a trick.""But, Rodriguez, look at the size of the hand, and that ring—""I said shut up!" Rodriguez snapped. "The Captain is always right! That crazy woman would do anything!"Jenkins opened his mouth, then closed it. He said nothing.They roughly shoveled the mess of flesh into a body bag.Then they dragged me up from the snow.My mind was still numb.Martha's blood was on my face, already starting to freeze.The cabin was warm as a spring day.A fire roared in the hearth.That goddamn Christmas tree dominated the living room, its lights blinking obnoxiously.Chloe was curled up in Ethan's arms, wearing a red silk nightgown.She looke
