Watch Your Back
“You can’t even read a map, hand it over here” shouted Jack with anger.
“Calm down, we’re not lost” replies John.
“Are you sure about that? That’s like the third time you say that” added Tyler whilst drinking some booze at the back of the car.
“Just shut it and stop drinking back there” said John.
You could tell by his voice that John was getting irritated by the other two shouting and complaining, but he knew they were true, he had no clue where he was or where he is going, all he saw was hills and sand around him. There was no population in miles to be seen.
After a couple of minutes of driving the car started to slow down, and the engine started to give out splattering sounds.
“What’s that noise?” asked Jack while carrying on reading the magazine.
“Oh sh--, that’s the engine” answered John in a worrying voice.
After a few seconds the car stopped. John stepped out of the car, murmured some curses under his nose and kicked the door.
“Now what” Jack was pissed off.
“There’s an oil leak in the engine” said John.
Then Tyler stepped out of the car, barely standing up, thanks to the car’s roof that he was holding on to. “Why did you stop now?” asked Tyler to both of his mates while still trying to concentrate hard enough to keep his balance.
“Just shut up and go lie down in the car, look at you, you’re drunk already and we haven’t even got to our campsite” angrily shouted John.
“Don’t have to shout at me, you know” He said while crouching back into the car.
“It looks like we’re not going to get to the campsite after all” added Jack
“Please, don’t make me even more angry than I am right now” said John whilst trying to calm himself. “I’ll have a go at fixing this”
After 40 minutes of sheer hard work and several attempts to fix this they had no luck. The car still didn’t start.
“We’re getting nowhere like this” said John.
“I know, I know” replied Jack “Is Tyler still sleeping?”
“I think he is” John walked to the car and looked through the window “Yes, he is”
“That’s not good” said Jack.
“It’s not like he would be useful right now” John replied
“I just had an idea that us two could go and look for the nearest gas station, but someone needs to guard the car, that’s why I needed Tyler” explained Jack.
“We can go anyway, who is going to try and steel the car in the middle of nowhere. Think about it” said John
“That’s true. Let’s go then, get the water bottle from the backseat, and we are ready to go”
“Don’t you think we should leave a note, just encase he wakes up?” added John
“Fine, leave a note and let’s start going” you should tell that Jack was getting impatient.
After an hour of walking straight down in the middle of nowhere and chatting about random things both of them got very tired. They knew that they were getting nowhere, but just wasting their energy, so they both started to talk about going back to the car. Both of them agreed and started walking back the way they came from.
“Oh my god, I had a phone with me” shouted John
“What did you just say? We basically walked all this for nothing... Hurry and get back to the car” filled with anger replied Jack.
So they both picked up a little bit of speed. They had a good idea, while walking back they started to tell jokes to each other to waste time. When they could see the car, they were talking about what Tyler could be doing all this time. When they walked up closer, they saw red stains on the car.
“What is that?” asked Jack
“If I knew that I wouldn’t be as surprised as you, now would I” replied John
They walked up even closer and they were disgusted by what they saw. They Tyler’s head on the back seat of the car, and the whole door was stained in blood. The window was smashed. You could still see the blood dripping at the bottom of the car.
“What the hell just happened here” said Jack taken by fear and horror.
John never said anything, he was just holding both of his hands by his mouth. They looked ahead and saw Tyler’s leg there. He was about to throw up from all that he has seen. He turned back around and he realised that John had beat him, he had already thrown up, and it was all inside the car, thanks to the smashed window.
“Get the phone now!” shouted Jack.
He heard no reply, John was just standing there, like he would’ve been hypnotised. Jack realised that his friend is useless now, so he had to look for the phone himself. In about 2 minutes he was calling the 911, and then he threw the phone on the floor. All you could hear is the auto replier sating that he is out of the area. He didn’t know what to do. He was out of ideas. Then he saw someone coming from the hill side where the blood stains lead to. He was scared.
“Hurry up John, we how to get out of here now! Run!” Shouted Jack over and over again, but John was just standing there, then he dropped on the floor unconscious.
Jack ran to the trunk, opened it and took out the baseball bat, he then grabbed his friend, lifted him up on his shoulder and started running. They had a body of a human, but they certainly didn’t look like one. They were quite fast, and they had deformed places on their bodies, it was as if they were mutated. He knew that they were going to catch him up if he carries on running with John on his shoulder, but he couldn’t drop him, that wouldn’t be right, would it? He carried on running, turned around, put John on the floor and waited for them to give them a whack with his baseball bat. His plan worked, well kind of, he hit one of the guys in the head, but he could not deal with the rest. He started running again, then he realised that he left John there, he was feeling sorry for him, but he knew there was no time for that now, he had to run, run as fast as he could. He kept on running, the distance between them and him was getting larger and larger. It was good news for him, until he saw another bunch of mutated humans in front of him, he looked left, right, but they were everywhere, he knew he had no chance. So he just stood there, stood there and waited for them to come. In a few seconds he was dead and his body was torn apart.
A month later.
“Are you sure we were meant to go this way?” asked Arian
“If I wasn’t sure I wouldn’t have come this way” replied Stefan...
