Episode 27: Escape
Joseph bears his fangs and growls with an internal ferocity the makes Karen take a step backward. He turns to look at her, his expression and fury unchanged. "GET THEM OUT OF HERE KAREN. I WILL HANDLE THESE THINGS."
She steps forward and peers around the edge. Her eyes open wide and her stomach begins to turn at the site of a dozen half decomposed bodies shambling from the darkness. Each one grasping out, as if to rip the essence of thier former lives from the air itself.
The things eyes varied from scarred white to the blackness of dried blood. Flesh, muscle and sinew grey and rotten fall limp from the bone. Thier mouths, filled with teeth, sharp and gnashing, open only to let out a soul shattering moan of lifeless hunger. Those pressed against the walls, reached out and tore at the brickwork, pulling mortar and stone with razor sharp fingers.
"GO,KAREN. GET OUT NOW!" Joseph leaps forward and claws the chest of the closest wild. Gray flesh and thick blood spray against the wall. He slams another wild into the wall, and bones break and pierce it's thin festering flesh.
Karen screams in fear as a wild tears into Joseph's back. He turns with stunning speed and throws the creature against the opposite wall. "I SAID GO!"
She turns to run and suddenly stops, mere inches away from Meyliss' face.
Meyliss caresses Karen's cheek. "I've known you for some time now Karen." Karen face is frozen in surprise and panic. "Don't think ill of me.." Karen begin to fall from a heavy uppercut, blackness filling her vision. Meyliss grabs her and tosses her to Leyland. "I trust you can take them somewhere safe?"
Leland slings all three bodies over his ample shoulders. He looks confused but says nothing. Meyliss answers an unsaid question. "She would never have left me to do what I have to do." The colour fades from her skin, eyes turn a bright blood red. Her fingers sharpen and extend to more than twice their length and her mouth widens into a malignant smile of death and carnage.
Leland turns to escape as Meyliss rushes toward Joseph. As she gets to his side, she rakes a wild about to clasp down onto his arm. Her blow rips the things head in half and brain matter slips out of it's boney housing, body collapsing to the floor.
With another blow to the chest of the front wild, she pushes them all back 20 feet.
Joseph looks down at her, his arm limp from multiple wounds. "You're strong!" he lets out a small chuckle before Meyliss backhands him in his gut, sending him staggering back. "You won't survive this, but I might. Follow your friend, quickly. If I don't follow you, tell her I enjoyed it all"
Joseph looks puzzled, but starts down after Leland. Meyliss stands watching the darkness and whispers "I enjoyed it all." as a split skulled wild grabs her and pulls.
