Zombies Unleashed

This shocked Skye, he'd expected the man to dump him and leave him there.
He clung tightly onto Carlos as he ran.

Noticing Skye was beginning to slow, he rolled his eyes and skidded to a halt. "C'mere." He snarled as he lifted Skye onto his back and began sprinting.

Skye was starting to slow down, he wasn't the healthiest person in the world, and running didn't really help.

"We gotta get out of here fast, there'll be more coming soon if they heard that gunshot." He explained as he continued to run, making sure Skye was still behind him.

The boy stumbled as Carlos pulled him along.

"Darn." The man said simply before grabbing the red head's wrist and beginning their escape.

Teh red head yelled as the bullet went through his shoulder and out the otherside into the un-dead beings chest.

Glancing behind Skye, the man raised his rifle and took aim. At such close range, he thought the shot would be easy enough. Putting his finger on the trigger when he was satisfied he would get a definite head-shot, he pulled the trigger with a load bang.

"You're welcome" the boy said with a warm smile before a hand grabbed him and pulled him backward.
Stumbling the boy struggling against the cold skin which belonged to the hand. Instantly he knew the creature wasn't living.

As Carlos finally felt the ground under him, he un-tied the rope around his ankle and stood up. Putting his knife away before dusting himself down, he glanced at the boy and gave him a quick and very reluctant thanks.

The annerxic 15 walked over to the base of the tree and un-tied the not as quickly as he could before lowring Carlos back down to the ground carefully.
As amusing as the older male had been when he was in some form of pain he didn't want to be cruel by letting him fall to the ground TOO quickly.

Growling through gritted teeth, the dark haired man glared at the red head. "Fine. Fine. Get me down." He grumbled.

He couldn't help but laugh at the mans feeble attempts to free himself.

Grumbling, Carlos glared at the red head. "I'm perfectly capable of getting myself down on my own, thank you." He said sarcastically and tried once again and, innevitably, failed.

"Given up?" the red headed youngster asked

Flopping back so he was hanging once again, he grumbled and tried to reach the rope again. Groaning, he flopped back and looked around.

Looking around Skye decided to make sure no zombies were around, otherwise himself and the strange man now dangling upside down would be in alot of danger.

Grumbling, the man reached and pulled his knife out of a small hoslter on his leg. "Right..." He grunted and tried to pull himself up to cut the rope.

Skye smiled weakly "Told you so"

"Yeah, yeah, whatever." Carlos said before stepping into what would have appeared to be a trap that could have caught even the stupidest of bears. A lasso of rope attached to a bent over tree, as Carlos triggered the trap the rope tightened itself around his ankle and lifted him upside down. Letting out a small groan, he glanced at Skye. "Don't you say a word." He said with a glare as he hung upside down.

"I'm not lieying!!!" Skye yelled as he ran after Carlos.

Scoffing slightly, Carlos smiled innocently. "Zombies aren't smart enough to go up stairs, let alone set traps." He said simply and continued walking in the direction he had previously been travelling in.

Skye fell silent and looked down at the floor. The boy had no confidence at all.
After a few minutes he managed to pluck up enough to explain that some of the more intellegent zombies had managed to place traps, a few he'd fallen for not that long ago and only just managed to get away.

Rolling his eyes, Carlos turned to face Skye. "And why not, Mr. Know-it-all?"

Skye just stood watching Carlos.
"I wouldn't go that way...."
