The Death Zone

The Death Zone

Western Australia, Karratha 1006

 

Madeline looked at the remains of the bodies scattered all over the slightly chipped ground, blood, there was copeless amounts of it. She was in this place ‘they’, called ‘The Death Zone’, it was the most scary thing in the world, scarier than an endless under-water cave. She didn't know where anyone was, until she spotted Liam, down the long scary, dark, hallway a few steps away. She thought of the fact that he always looked older every time she saw him, I guess thats the effects of time travel, she thought.

 

"Hey, Maddy" said Liam "how many are alive"?

"What um...oh...I don't know" she exclaimed, deep in thought about what they had just been through to get here.

"Well, let's go look than" said Liam.

She didn't answer, she nodded and just managed to smile.

As they walked on, they heard a high pitched scream, it sounded like someone being murdered...painfully, in which Maddy thought sadly about.

 

They started to run to go help the person, if they could, after, what felt like an hour, they reached a tall man with an expressionless face, it was Bob.

"Hi, you should look out for Sal, I lost her on the way here" he said

"Do you know who screamed"? said Liam

"I think that was Sal" he replied

"Come on than, lets go find her" she said, hoping that

 

They all ran till they spotted Sal, she was at the end of the tunnel, they saw a flash of very dark brown hair. Sal was crying.

"SAL" they all called at the same time.

She looked up at them, and stopped crying, she looked scared and she slowly took her hand off her shoulder and held her hand up, it was covered in blood, the blood looked like paint splattered on her dark but beautiful skin, thought Liam, then Sal screamed:

"MADELINE, HELP ME"!

They all ran to Sal as fast as they could, but Maddy was the fastest, when she got there, Maddy crouched down so she could see Sal’s face, her eyes looked different than it was gone in a flash, it was like looking into a person's face that had been tortured, as quickly as it came it was gone.

 

“Hey Maddy, hi Liam and Bob, how are you” Sal whispered

“Was that you screaming”? said Liam

“What um…I don’t know, my shoulder hurts.”

“What happened here”? Maddy scanned the surroundings as she said this, she saw a flash of dark brown hair disappear around the corner of one of the shelves. She looked at Sal’s shoulder, it looked liked she was stabbed, maybe even with a knife and it was covered in blood.

“I could probably fix that” said Bob as he examined her shoulder.

Sal didn’t say anything, she just, and only just, manage a very weak smile.

“Bob could you carry Sal until we get to the place” said Liam

“Whats the place”? said Maddy and Sal said at the same time.

“You will see when we get there”.

 

No one talked as they run, an hour later they arrived at a small door and Maddy spoke up.

“I thought this was going to be tougher but I guess I thought wrong”.

BANG!

“What the ……”

CRASH!

Sal screamed, she started shivering, Maddy looked up from the floor, Liam was pointing at the door.

“Probability: we should get through the door before whatever that thing was gets us, Sal calm down”. said Bob, his face was stone cold.

So they walked to the door, once they got there they saw that the door was a way home.

“H-Hey don’t forget h-her”. said Sal

 

Sal’s eyes looked like they were different like they were being controlled, then they went back to normal then they all turned around and saw a girl walking towards them, she had long dark brown hair that sat flowing down her shoulders, her blue eyes swam with tears.

“You forgot me Sal that’s mean; you do know you can walk” she said “I didn’t hurt your ankle did I know” she muttered,she had a kind of british accent, Sal didn’t say anything

 

“Well thats just mean....” she said “I see that you have brought friends with you. Nice to meet you I'm Lily” she said, her gaze lingered on Bob for a bit probably out of fear and than on Liam, for a long time.

She walked up to Liam and whispered in his ear

“Your cute…..so what's say we get out of here and ditch these people”

“ Well, no way, let’s go guys”

“Fine than”

They walked through the door, a blinding light and then they were back at the office they had left about a week ago. At the table sat Mr Foster.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Stabing

London, England, 2012

 

“Hi guys” he said

They put Sal in the bedroom, then they heard something, they all turned around and they saw Lilly.

“Who the hell i...” said Foster

“Hang on a minute” said Maddy “How the hell did you get here”?

“Well, It’s quite easy I just walked behind you guys and ended up here, so this is cool i'm guessing it's you flat”?

“Um...whats a flat” said Liam, giving Foster a questioning look, Which he repled with a ‘I’ll tell you later’ look.

Lilly walked up behind Liam and pulled something out of her pocket, it was shiny

“Hey, Liam is it, well guess what I’ve got in my hand, I’ll only show you it” she said

“Fine” he said

 

Liam noticed Sal was whimpering, but was trying to see what Lilly had in her hand, Lilly was about to show Liam what it was when Bob stepped in between them and said

“I know what that is, now can you kindly give it to me”

“NO” she screamed

She steeped to around Bob and through a shiny sharp knife into Liam’s shoulder and then one in his leg, he cried out. Liam was on the ground whimpering.

“Why would you do that, and you hurt Sal didn’t you”? said Maddy

“Well yeah, and because I wanted to, and I had a point to prove”

“What point”! Maddy said, but she didn’t answer as a look of reality flashed across her face for a split second.

 

A blinding painful strike in his shoulder and his leg, Liam could barely hear what they were saying, he got put on the bed he sleeps in, he saw Sal across him in Maddy’s bed.

“Hey, that looks painful how did it hap…”

“Lily” Liam said faintly, before she could finish her sentence.

“Are you ok, do you me to get help”

“...no…”

*

“Why did you do that” said Maddy

Lilly didn’t respond, just smirks

Foster got up and walked to help Sal and Liam, Bob and Maddy followed. They walked down the hallway into the bedroom, Sal was leaning against the wall and Liam was facing the opposite wall and had his eyes closed, he’s breathing was shallow.

 

“Bob can you fix Sal and I’ll do Liam, Madeline help me please, and get the first aid kit”.

“Ok” said Bob, flatly

“Yep” Maddy said, she hoped they were ok

Maddy walked off to get the fristadid kit, Bob was talking to Sal, and Foster was whispering to Liam, he had decided to open his eyes, Foster was talking but Liam could barely hear him.

 

“Liam” he said, softly

“What”? Liam said, weekly

“Can you hear me”?

“Bearly, and this kills”he said

“Ok, Bob are you done yet”?

“Affirmative” he muttered

Maddy had come back with the first aid kit and said she would make sure Lilly didn’t come in the room, Liam looked over at Sal she had a bandage on her shoulder, Bob walked over and checked Liam over, Sal had a look of concern written across her face, he heard Maddy shouting and Lilly muttering.

 

“Ok, this is going to be harder than Sal’s” Bob said, expreshionaly

“What”! Liam said weakly, he didn’t want this to be painful, Foster must have known what he was thinking because of what he said next.

“Dont worry this is only going to be a bit painful, can you close your eyes now” he said “Put him out please Bob”

 

The last thing Liam saw was Sal and the next thing Liam felt was a headache. An hour or so he heard whispering.

“Wow, thats a lot of blood” ! said and gentle voice, that's got to be Foster

“Yes do you think that he will survive, and I don’t think I can fix this”? said an emotionless voice, which was Bob

“Don’t say stuff like that, he will live” said an concern voice, Sal

“I hate you” said an emotional voice, Maddy

“It wasn’t my fault, I wanted to prove my point” said a voice with a slight accent, Lilly

“What point”!? said Maddy, angraily

“Liam knows what point, don’t you Liam”she said, she knew he was slightly awake

“Liam...better be...o-ok”! Sal said between sobs, she was crying

Liam fell back into nothingness, another hour of going in and out, an hour later he woke up the room was empty he still had pain in his shoulder and leg, blood covered the sheets, Sal came back into the room, tears streaked her face, then she looked over at Liam and muttered something and walked out of the room. Lilly came into the room she was holding something that he couldn’t see, it was shiny ‘Oh...no, not again’. he thought

 

“Hey” she said

Liam didn’t say anything, she walked up to him and another blinding flash of pain, he screamed. Lilly ran out of the room, she dropped the knife in the doorway, the knife had a pool of blood surrounding it on the floor. Foster and the rest ran in, Sal was crying, Maddy swore, Bob was staring with disbelief and Foster said

“Great, more blood to deal with, Liam can you hear me”?

“...yes…” said Liam, so quietly that only Foster could hear him, he got knocked out again, round about 5 hours later he woke up Sal and Foster were standing over him, he moaned Sal noticed and called Maddy in and nudged Foster in the arm, Maddy came in and she told them Bob was watching Lilly and making sure she doesn't come in. Liam moaned again to get there attention.

 

“Hi Liam, how are you” Sal whispered

“...good, what do you think…” he said, his voice was very faint and crocky

“Oh no” whispered Maddy to Foster “look what she did”

Foster noded, and then looked at Liam his face showed what he was thinking, Liam gave him an unappreciated look, he didn’t need to think that.

 

“Question...where did I get stabbed and is it fatal”.

“Well…” said Foster

“Um…” Maddy said, not letting on anything

“You got stabbed…um...in your…foot, and no it’s not” says Sal

“SAL, really you were not supposed to tell him that” Foster said angrily

“Do you feel ok”? asked Maddy

“No, what do you reckon”

 

Liam passed out.

“Liam”, Maddy was saying just to make sure he was still awake

no answer

“Liam”, Sal was getting worried

not one word

“Liam, guys I think his passed out”, Foster sounded concerned
