raised the gun. "Go !! I'll stop it, run into the hall and hide !!"
Alan nodded, the man was really brave, it was a shame that he had to die, he grabbed Toni by the arm and pulled her through the heavy wooden door into the hall.
Just as he closed the door behind him, he heard another scream, but he couldn't come out of the room he had just left.
The scream came from the place right in front of the station, a man who called for help, no, pleaded for help.
Against his better judgment, Alan ran to the door and looked through the small window.
He froze ... was that real? There was a young woman in a miniskirt, armed with a shotgun, and something huge and black was moving just a few meters away.The giant resembled the zombies, but looked much more dangerous, he held a man in the air with one hand, a dead man with rivers of fresh blood flowing from his mouth, no doubt he was the one who had just screamed. The man's face was frozen in a mask of sheer panic.
The giant turned to the woman, his face looked terrible, he had no mouth, his monstrous teeth and gums could be seen.
"Great God, what is that?" Toni gasped, she was pale as a sheet and trembling.
The woman raised the shotgun and fired four bullets into the giant's face in less than two seconds, but he just kept walking, he raised an arm and struck the woman, but she dodged skillfully.
She's a professional, Alan thought, maybe she was one of the S.T.A.R.S.?
The woman kept firing, but the thing wasn't impressed at all, it had to have a steel skull.
"We have to help her. This thing is killing her !!"Toni had already put her hand on the handle and wanted to push it down, but Alan stopped it.
"Don't do that !! You're only putting yourself in danger."
"Yes, but we can't ..." Alan shook his head vigorously, he was right, whatever it was seemed invulnerable, what could you do?
And just as she saw it the something staggered a step back, grabbed his shoulder, from which strange purple blood was spurting, and fell over.
The woman put her hands on her knees and took a few shaky breaths, she didn't seem particularly relieved to have killed this thing, who was she? Alan watched her intently, her movements, breathing, even the way she held the gun, she was a trained professional.
Should you talk to her? After all, it could be from the S.T.A.R.S. but she might as well be someone else who would just shoot her.
He decided he couldn't take the risk, he had taken responsibility for Toni, he couldn't put her in danger.He grabbed her hand and pulled her away from the door. "Hey, what is it?" - "Quiet !!" He pushed her into a corner behind a stack of boxes and took cover behind it himself. Just in time, the door swung open and the woman walked in, she still looked completely exhausted, both physically and emotionally, probably the man outside had been a friend of hers, or even her husband.
Alan kept it in the sights of his rifle so that he could quickly pull the trigger if necessary. But the woman walked past them and left the hall through the door that led to the detective office.
"What was that supposed to mean?" - "Don't ask so stupidly ... how do you know if she doesn't kill us like the monster?"
- "Why should she? You really have a problem with people, you know?"
Alan ignored their allegations and left the hiding place, the others wouldn't come for 19 hours, they should find somewhere to sleep, but first he wanted to see this thing out there when there was more of it in this sick city it better to know their weak points."Are you coming now? Or do you want to keep thinking about my character?"
- “It's okay.” Toni angrily forced himself out of the hiding place and brushed off some dust.
Alan went to the door and opened it, Toni ran after him and wondered why he always had to behave like that?
Alan glanced at the man's corpse, which lay in a huge pool of blood on the floor, apparently his pockets had already been searched. Then he approached the creature's motionless body and crouched next to it.
"Definitely not a zombie, this thing was specially created that way, the clothes aren't torn, they were tailored that way, and the large seams on his face indicate a surgical procedure.
“But who could create something like that?” Toni kept a conscious distance from the thing, it still looked so threatening, as if it were still alive.
"If we can believe the cop, I'd say Umbrella."
- "So you mean Umbrella created such monsters?That can't be ... a multinational corporation doesn't create mon ... hiiiii !! "She cried out in horror.
Alan jumped up, he too had noticed, the thing's limp fingers curled into a fist and pressed into the ground.
Toni clung to Alan in fear, but he wasn't particularly happy either, a dozen shotgun rounds hadn't killed the monster and now they were facing him.
He took two deep breaths, panic was now useless, they had to keep their heads clear, but that was really difficult, Toni shivered and trembled with fear.
Alan inwardly shook his head, there was no point in making her fight, the monster would kill her quickly. But they couldn't escape him either ... at least not both of them.
He almost grabbed her hand and turned her face away from the thing, he tried to sound hard, but he couldn't.
"Listen, you're running to the station now and blocking the door behind you."Toni was still trembling, but she listened carefully.
"And what about you?"
Alan looked her straight in the eye. “I'm going to stop this monster !!” He pushed her away and took aim at the giant with his shotgun.
The thing yelled something that sounded like "Sttaarssss", then turned its attention to Alan, who pulled the shotgun, he discharged both barrels into the giant's face at the same time, but he didn't even flinch.
* He will die * thought Toni, * He sacrifices himself for me *
“Do you really think I'll let you scrape you off here, you idiot ?!” Alan glanced over his shoulder in surprise.
"Don't give a shit, get out of here !!" Toni loaded the MP and set his sights on the giant.
"You might like that !!"
Alan didn't know what to think right now.
Then stop thinking and shoot better !!
"All right, if you want to die that much ... shoot and run when you have to reload, don't get too close or you'll be like the guy over there."She nodded and pulled the trigger. The setback surprised her a little, but she was able to stand it again and hammered one hole after the other into the giant's body.
Alan quickly pulled two cartridges from the belt and pounded them into the rifle.
The monster stomped towards Toni, it simply ignored the bullets of the MP, Alan shot another shot into the deformed skull.
Toni 's gun clicked, the magazine was empty and the monster was standing right in front of her, she wondered if it might not be a good idea to intervene in the fight after all.
“Run damn it!” But Alan's call came too late, the thing grabbed Toni with his huge hand and lifted her up as if she were weightless.
Alan ran faster towards this scene, he had to make it, he couldn't let her damn it die.
The monster lifted the other arm from which, as Toni now saw, a disgusting pink and above all pointed gripping arm was sticking out, suddenly she realized how the man had died and she howled with fear.“Please don't, please !!” The thing didn't react at all, it had no pity.
Toni closed her eyes, * please let it go quickly *, she thought.
"It's over now, you freak !!"
Alan grabbed the gripper arm and tore it from Toni 's face, with the other hand he rammed the barrel of the shotgun as hard as he could against the giant' s bare teeth.
It almost surprised Alan when four teeth broke off and the tube entered the creature's mouth. There was a growl from his throat, but apparently the gripper arm was a vulnerable place, he couldn't move his hand and in the other hand he was still holding the half unconscious Toni. Alan tried to shake it off, but he held on.
"Verrecke !!" Alan pulled the trigger and chased the complete junk load directly into the skull of the monster, he saw how this strange purple blood and also a sticky mass, apparently the brain of this creature, splashed over the ground and his hand, then it broke Creature together with a tremendous scream.Toni fell to the floor, she had lost consciousness for good.
Alan took her in his arms and went back to the entrance of the station, he looked at the girl in his arms, she had fought really well, a smile flickered over his lips.
Admit it to yourself, you like her.
He pushed the thought aside that there were more important things to do, e.g. B. he had to find a safe place where they could stay overnight, she had to relax and some sleep would surely do him good too.

"Hey, wake up." Diana felt a hand on her shoulder and was startled from a nightmare, she had dreamed that the entire city was destroyed, monsters and the living dead roamed the streets and attacked the living.
When she opened her eyes and looked into Rick 's face, she realized that it wasn't a dream, that was real, wasn't it? She didn't really know.
"All right?" Rick looked at her worriedly, could he feel her confusion? She tried to put on a smile, and could halfway come to terms with her surroundings.Ben wasn't in the room, but the noises coming from the kitchen indicated that he was making breakfast.
"If you want you can take a shower before breakfast, we still have a few hours until we have to be at the RPD."
-"Thanks."
Yes, a hot shower would do her good now, she had to wash away that terrible stench of corpses, even if she knew that that would not be possible, the stench did not come from her, but from the two dead people in the house.
Still, she got up from the soft couch, stretched and made her way to the tiled bathroom, luckily it was clean, no corpses and no blood either.
Relieved, she closed the door behind her and turned on the water in the milky plastic
