Code Zulu Alpha: Nerd in the Apocalypse!

Chapter 400: 400

Blood spurted instantaneously and Ryan’s right ear was completely torn off. Blood started to trickle down his neck but the one that was screaming hysterically was his mother. He fell on one knee while clutching his ear and he was discombobulated because his eardrums were probably ringing aggressively. All he managed to do was start crying like a baby while trying to call for his mom for help.

“MOM~ MOM~ THEY SHOT ME~ MOMMMMYY~” Ryan wailed.

“RYAN!!! OH MY GOD!!! RYAN!!!” the mom screeched while a vein was bulging out from her forehead. She tried to run towards her son but two soldiers stopped her in her tracks.

“Ma’am! We’re in the middle of a-” a soldier tried to explain to her that she wasn’t allowed to come close but he received a vicious slap.

“YOU F.U.C.K.I.N.G LOWLIFE DON’T GET TO TELL ME WHERE I SHOULD AND SHOULD NOT GO, YOU HEAR ME?! WE’RE F.U.C.K.I.N.G FEEDING YOU EVER SINCE YOU CAME HERE AND ALL YOU DID WAS LOUNGE AROUND-” she started to push her way in but another soldier interrupter her.

“Ma’am! You don’t understand, we all agreed to a mutual-” but it just fell on deaf ears as another slap connected cleanly.

“I. DON’T. GIVE. A. FLYING. F.U.C.K. OF. THE. AGREEMENT. YOU. HAD. WITH. MY. F.U.C.K.I.N.G. HUSBAND. YOU HEAR ME?! MR.~ STUPID-ASS MR. SOLDIER!!! STOP F.U.C.K.I.N.G BLOCKING ME CAUSE THE SMELL OF YOUR CHEAP PERFUME IS KILLING ME!!!” she still tried to keep pushing past them as she was giving them slaps when an opening presents itself.

The patience of the two soldiers was commendable because if it was me, she would’ve been already sweeping her teeth off the ground.

She then started to claw at their arms so they would let go of her. However, someone from my group with blonde hair and almost the same haircut as the Karen we were facing though a bit longer now was now behind the soldiers. I glanced back at Kaley and she just smiled as she shrugged her shoulders. I shook my head in amus.e.m.e.nt as I waited for the events to unfold.

“Let her go. You shouldn’t do that to her.” Tatiana calmly said.

The two soldiers were confused from Tatiana’s statement so they didn’t follow her. However, the stupid f.u.c.k thought they were allies just because they almost had the same f.u.c.k.i.n.g haircut.

“LISTEN TO HER!!! YOU F.U.C.KWITS WOULD NEVER HEAR THE END OF THIS FROM MY HUSBAND IF HE REACHED THIS PLACE!!!” she exclaimed.

“Let her go, I got it.” Tatiana placed her hands above their shoulders while giving both of them a look.

The two soldiers just looked at each other before letting the Karen pass through. The Karen walked jauntily and she gave Tatiana an approving look with no urgency about her son’s current situation. The Karen just gave a victorious smile but it instantly changed as Tatiana swiftly delivered a knee to her mouth.

“GrcHckHK!!! Wha- WHAT THE F.U.C.K?!” the Karen lost it.

I f.u.c.k.i.n.g heard the crunch from a few feet away.

The Karen’s dentures fell off as her bloodied mouth received another knee from Tatiana. It was shocking she managed to stand up after the first one but it was f.u.c.k.i.n.g satisfying to hear that crunch a second time. This time, Tatiana aimed a little bit higher so her nose was also bleeding out. The Karen was heavily breathing because blood was also present in her airways.

“MOMMY~!!!” Ryan cried out when he saw what transpired.

His mom was face down on the ground, shaking, while a couple of her real teeth was just right beside her cheek. Tatiana just turned around with a hidden smirk as she slowly walked back to where we were. The two soldiers she left were just dumbfounded from what she did and they didn’t know what to do about the Karen she beat the f.u.c.k out.

The Karen was just dragged to the side but a few business owners took a picture of her sorry state. She was trying to cover her face but even if she managed to, not even her husband would be able to recognize her current appearance.

“She f.u.c.k.i.e.d around and found out.” I thought to myself.

Oscar and the CO then approached me and I glanced at the name tag on his uniform. It read ‘C. Palomares’ but the situation at hand was more complicated. We briefly introduced ourselves before we tackled the current situation.

“Christopher, what’s your protocol when this kind of thing happens?” Oscar asked.

“We’ve had a few troublemakers ordered to not leave their parent’s stores but this group of kids always were the ones who give me and the other soldiers headaches. The parents were supposed to not let them go out but that lady is always enabling them.” Christopher replied as he removed his hat.

Christopher was almost the same height as Oscar but he was younger by a few years. He had brown skin and still maintaining a fit body though most of his hairs were in a shade of gray.

“If this was our place, especially if they brought home the undead like that and with multiple offenses? Oh boy, the kid would’ve aimed a few inches from where he shot. Even if they’re minors, endangering the lives of everyone inside more than warrants the execution.” Oscar stated with a grim look.

“It’s just that it’s complicated here. We had an agreement that we’d keep everyone safe in exchange for a place to stay and food. We could take the insults from some of them but both sides wouldn’t be able to live without each other.” Christopher explained.

“Your group is trying to keep everyone inside the Intercity safe. However, if the people themselves are trying to get themselves in danger, that’s a different story. Sometimes, no matter how big of a hammer you use, you can’t fix stupid. Who’s the husband she kept blabbering about anyway?” I chimed in.

“It’s Mauricio Jimenez, owner of a few big stores here. He’s a great guy, he even goes on runs with his people and our soldiers but everyone f.u.c.k.i.n.g hates his wife and kid. Excuse me sir, it was Neil who let them in without properly checking the trunk.” the soldier on the radio earlier approached us and heard our conversation so he answered.

“Neil? Eric, isn’t that-” Christoped was surprised then the soldier answered.

“Yes sir, Neil is one of the survivors from that small camp. Apparently, he got shouted at and berated by the kids so he just let them pass without checking the vehicle thoroughly. He said he figured that they’re from this place and no one is stupid enough to bring the dead inside. However, he was wrong about that, someone somewhere there’s always that someone or in our case, a group.” Eric said, shaking his head.

“Back to our situation, what are we gonna do with these kids? That lady too. I’d say to just stab a knife in their heads and be done with it. Even if we let them go, I doubt they would miraculously change their ways and stop huffing that shit every day.” Oscar said, walking over them.

“I was planning to bait some people but I think I didn’t need to wave what we found on our runs. It looks like the Karen isn’t using though, she’s just already f.u.c.k.i.e.d in the head naturally.” I thought to myself.

“I think it would be better to place them in handcuffs and detain them just in front of the entrance.” Christopher suggested.

“Why? We could be just done with it. Tell the husband his wife and kid f.u.c.k.i.e.d up and tried to frame someone. We have evidence backing our claim and if he’s as great as you said he is, he’d kill them himself.” Oscar refuted.

“We’re not even gonna wait for Mauricio?” Eric asked.

“Why? What could he do?” Oscar gave a perplexed look.

“It’s his family sir. Something might-” he was about to say something but Oscar interrupted him.

“Something might happen? Hah! Something already happened! They’re f.u.c.k.i.n.g lucky you’re all here or this would be just a place crawling with dead by the stupidity of f.u.c.k.i.n.g potheads. If you ask why that f.u.c.k.i.n.g lady as well, I’ll smack you in the head. F.u.c.k me, the kid always explain this but I think I have to. While her husband is away, she’s the one supposed to keep them in check. Who gave them the keys to the vehicles they used? What kind of parent would let their kids go outside and play scavenger and defend them when they bring home their dead friends who clawed their friends throat out, huh? Is that okay? Want me to include subtitles?” Oscar was confused he had to explain the situation.

The kids and the Karen just now finally realized the gravity of the situation and they were trembling nonstop. Ryan even started to piss on himself and now the smell of ammonia and iron were getting mixed up.

“PLEASE!!! WE’RE SORRY!!!”

“WE WON’T DO IT AGAIN!!! WE PROMISE!!!”

The kids started to cry for forgiveness but even the onlookers were having none of it. It even looked like they wanted to do it themselves though I’m sure they would puss out at the last second.

However, while Oscar was still discussing with Eric and Christopher, a Land Rover drove in. He exited the vehicle with a worried look and his face was distraught when he saw the dead bodies inside the trunk of the SUV and the dead girl right below it. It seemed that he recognized them but his eyes scanned over to me and everyone present.

His eyes then stopped at Ryan.

“You did this, didn’t you?” a deep voice resounded.

I thought Ryan was gonna start spewing bullshit again and I have to explain myself once more but he didn’t. Ryan couldn’t even look at the eyes of who I assumed was Mauricio. He was just looking to the side as he was starting to shake all over. Even the Karen was surprisingly silent as f.u.c.k and I could partly figure out why they said to wait for him first.

“Do what you have to.” an emotionless voice followed after a short pause.
