er Mark's wife in to your loving arms where there will be no suffering or pain this we ask in your name Amen" The other 2 murmured Amen. We unceremoniously dropped the 2 body's on the doorstep of a church round the corner why were there so many churches round here?We would have liked to do a bit more but the dead prevented this. We reentered the flats and the next job began. The staircases were quickly demolished with the sledge hammer and we were soon on the top floor looking down at the mess we created we were safe for now maybe.We hoped. But one thing was left. It was now 5 o clock I had been putting it off for a while now but we had to check on Jane handcuffed in the other room no matter how much I wanted to wanted the problem disappear it wouldn't me and Jon got up. We carefully opened the door and headed towards the living room. I turned the handle "Don't come in!" I jumped back from the door trading on Jon's foot. I recovered my composure " Er are you OK on there I asked?" "No you didn't leave me any fucking toilet paper!" "Oh er sorry about that can we come in" "Hold on OK I'm decent" We entered the room Jane was still handcuffed she had drunk all the water and eaten the food I had left. "You still haven't turned I said can I see your arm" She pulled back defensevley. I knelled beside her "Please Jane" She relaxed and held out her arm. It was unmistakably a bite a human one to so why wasn't she turning? "Jon I need to speak with her do you mind if we do it privately?" He grunted and walked away he couldn't get out of there quick enough it was clear he didn't like Jane not that I could blame him holding kid's hostage does not endear yourself to anyone. "Be back in a sec" I left the room grabbed a couple of things and returned. I emptied her toilet bucket with toilet roll this time some more water and a couple of pot noodles I passed her one and started on mine. "So want to tell me what happened I questioned slurping a noodle that was bigger than I expected. "You know what happened you know it's a bite and you're gonna kill me for it" She started to eat. I sighed "Your not turning you were bitten over 24 hours ago but you are still you you aren't tying to eat my brains but we don't know why we cant let you just wander around the place I am sorry I wish it could be different" I looked down at my noodles they didn't look so good anymore. There was a pause and suddenly " I forgive you" "What?" I looked up shocked " I forgive you and I'm sorry for what I did it wasn't right for me to do that nothing excuses it" She looked down at the floor. "Look how bout we just eat "I said. We did we chatted and told each other about ourselves she used to be a personal trainer at the gym near the shopping center standard back story single lived in a small house near where we found her with a greyhound called Duke he was still there apparently with out food. God I like cats but I also like dog's the thought of it just slowly starving to death got to me. "Whats the address?" I asked. "Why?" "Do you want you're dog back or not?" She gave me the address. Before I left the room I cleaned the bite with antiseptic and put a fresh bandage on I said we would take a vote at 8pm tomorrow night everyone including her would get to give there point of view I would try and get her dog back I un cuffed her hand that was high up on the radiator and lowered it before snapping it shut again so it would be more comfortable. "Good night she said as I went to step out " "Night" I replied without turning round. 10 pm I'm sitting here in the dark watching walls of metal fencing wood cars anything that the locals can get there hands on in Hastings to build a wall against the undead the battle could o either way I know who I would be betting on. Sky had fallen asleep next to me on the sofa halfway through Finding Nemo I picked her up and carried her to the bedroom and tucked her in. "Night night" she muttered rolled over and fell asleep. I half closed the door behind me Jon didn't approve of the idea of going to get a dog but has decided to come with me. I lied down on the sofa and the darkness enveloped me.
K9's And Crook's


So this is what being human is risking our lives for an animal that could be suffering even though we could be killed in the process, The dog will have gone with out food for 3 day's at least common sense would value human life higher than that of a dog's but I could not sit here and imagine it's suffering. Jon pulled up a map on his iPhone the house was less than a mile away. Before we left. The girl's and Toby wished us luck he would be staying behind just in case. "Tom?" "Yes darling" I said loading a few things in to my satchel. "I have something for you?" "What's that?" She came up to me on tip toes and kissed me on the cheek "Come back quickly" "I will be good and look after the cat's we might have a surprise for you when we come back" Her face light up and she hugged me. We left the flat and jogged for 5mins to the car park "Got the house keys?" Jon queried I was notorious for leaving with out them "I'm not an idiot of course I have them" We jumped in and headed off. The drive took a lot longer than it should have done having to drive round corpses tends to ruins your early morning commute but we pulled up outside with no incident. "Right I'm gonna head in you drive round til I call sound like a plan?" "Got it don't get your arse bit though" "I would never let that happen it's my best feature" "Much better than your face anyway" I laughed and got out the street was clear it was a short road with about 15 houses in all with well maintained front gardens apart from the one I was heading to which was overgrown wild and looked more like wasteland with the brown grass and overgrown hedge. I approached the door and knocked I heard soft barking inside. The dog was OK that cheered me up a bit. Instead of the front door I unlocked the wooden side door so i would not be noticed on the street's I poked my head through it seemed clear and I headed in. The back garden had been completely concreted over looking more like an abandoned industrialized zone than a place to be enjoyed it was bear with only a couple of wheelie bins and a 6ft stone wall. I approached the glass sliding doors the blinds were down so I could not see inside. This didn't worry me the house looked secure so i doubted anything was in there I inserted the key and opened it up slowly and headed in. I was in the dining room a large oak table with 6 chairs surrounded it I closed the door behind me. It struck me as I was standing there I had no idea if this dog was friendly oh well time to find out I made my way out of the dining room and to the hallway SQUELCH I looked down I had trodden in dog shit lovely. Then something came racing down the stairs and jumped up at me. "I guess your Duke then?" The dog slobbered all over me "I bet your starving come on then" I stood up and walked back in to the dining room and fished some dry food and tinned food and poured it in to a bowl it stank worse than the dog shit i trod in Duke didn't seem to mind he barked appreciation and proceeded to wolf it down as I got him some water. After feeding Duke I went upstairs pulled out a couple of travel bags Jane had mentioned a few things we might find useful as well as asking for some clothes I piled all those in along with Duke's food and bowls when he was done. I pulled the lead from a nail in the wall "How bout a walk?" He jumped up again obviously eager for me to attach it "O.K ready?" Woof. "Great" I slid the back door open again and locked it behind me but this time the garden wasn't as bear. There was one of them just standing looking at me how did it get in? I locked the side door it advanced at a run not zombie human as soon as this thought hit me so did the human he was a good deal bigger than me at least a good half foot and an extra 3 stones we went back and through the glass his head was trying to get my throat he was trying to bit me what the hell was this guy doing? I kneed him in the balls a groan escaped his lips and he fell to the floor not a zombie moan and the balls aren't there weakness he was curled up in the fetal position groaning I walked over to him " Hey you snap out of it" He looked up and groaned it was a good impression of a zombie moan but this guy was definatley human his eyes he was bleeding that meant the hurt was beating. I had an idea I took a photo of him and turned to leave he wasn't getting up soon. I picked up Duke's leash and the 2 two travel bag's and my phone rang "Are you done he asked?" Urgency rang through his voice "What's happened? "Toby just called people are at our front door and they want in and are threatening to break the door down" " Fuck there going to lead the dam things straight to us I'm good to go got the dog you outside?" "Ready and waiting" I ran out in to the street opened the back door of the fiesta threw Duke and the bag's in closed the door an hopped in the front. "We have the rifle right" I asked Jon nodded as we sped to for home. We Decided not to park in the usual place but bring the car to the flats maybe the dead we attract would force the people away we didn't have enough for ourselves let alone more. We pulled up I stepped out the car. The group was 10
