《Zombie Book》Eden
Advertisement
I wasn't strolling through the woods for long, when out of nowhere. I suddenly felt the sensation of being tossed through the air. It was the kind of trap you only know from movies: The net trap. I honestly never thought anybody would use something like that. There is no way I could make a hole in such a net with a golf club. Unfortunately there is only one type of person who sets up such a thing. The crazy ones. The kind of crazy people that want to eat you. At least I can safely get through the night. So I rolled around until I finally found a comfortable spot. Unfortunately it didn't take long until I attracted some biters. They started growling and made it very difficult to relax, but not impossible
Whoosh. the sound of a flying arrow woke me with a scream that followed. [FOOOOOOOOOOOD] Maniac Oh, darn, this is exactly the kind of crazy I imagined. I'm so dead for sure. He's definitely a 'MadMax'-guy who claims his blood is gasoline If only he was on his own, but no, it was a group that apparently identified themselves wearing leather jackets. In my dress I was probably just a lucky dessert for them. The crazy ones chopped the zombies into little chunks. After that I sensed the feeling of zero gravity and then lost consciousness. Apparently caused by my head hitting the dirt
It didn't take long to realize that I woke up in an arena. It's not something you just find in the woods. It was probably built. They can't be that crazy. They were anything but crazy. I noticed that I was wearing leather bracers. Also, my dress had been carefully cut up and glued together with duct tape. Which leads to more mobility. Next to me was my improved golf club. With some barbed wire and a blade that pointed in the opposite direction. [Thank you for coming so unwillingly. The rules are simple: Whoever wins may join us, whoever loses may join us too, but as dinner.] Maniac The audience cheered and whistled. They shouted ferociously. Some of them tried to dictate orders and advice to the participants. After he had said that, the gates were opened that held us back until now. The arena was surprisingly large. I immediately noticed five more competitors. There are the two rough guys who are presumably already members and only join in for fun. There's a fat guy with two knives. Who was immediately scared to death. A normal guy who's probably never killed a person before. And a blonde beauty. She wears a long yellow summer dress decorated with floral patterns. Curiously her dress has not been upgraded.

As soon as she saw me. she dropped her katana and started running in my direction. So either she mistook me for her friend or it's a trick to kill me. As she ran closer to me her smile grew bigger and bigger As if she had been waiting a long time for me and had finally found me. [Daddy!] Girl in Dress Daaa.. What? I could be a lot of things, but I'm certainly not her father. I mean, I'm not even old enough. Focus! It could still be a trick. But then why would she drop her weapon... [Darling?] Jens Mueller [I have found you at last!] Girl in Dress Maybe she thinks I can protect her. But she picked the wrong guy. [I am Eve, your daughter!] Eve Wow, thanks anyway. Of course you're my daughter, that's why you need to introduce yourself by your first name. [Eh, sweetheart, maybe we should just focus on the fight first?] Jens Mueller [You can count on me] Eve She winked at me and ran straight for the fat man. I'm still a little baffled. I don't think you can handle a situation like this so easily. Should I tell her she's unarmed? Nah, I think she can manage. As she reached the fatty, she disarmed him with some badass Jacky Chan moves and cut his throat in cold blood. The sight of so much blood made me sick. And I began to realize my situation. Until now I was just a spectator, but I am clearly a participant.
As I followed her fighting, I realized how one of the freaks charged towards me on the right side. I lifted my weapon to parry the attack. I focused all my attention on my opponent. My legs took up a boxing stance. It's all or nothing now. The battle cry of my opponent suddenly faded until it was completely replaced with a cough, followed by violent vomiting of blood. Once his lifeless body crashed into the ground, I noticed the blade in his neck. This brutal woman actually succeeded in throwing a knife across half of the arena, and fatally injuring a moving target. I think I have to be her Dad after all. She no longer had the sweet and innocent look when she painted her dress red. Even though it gave her enormous satisfaction. Even though it gave her much satisfaction, she didn't perform a single cut or strike to cause the enemy to suffer. Her passion was to kill the enemy quickly and efficiently. All that blood didn't seemed to unsettle her [All done!] Eve Proudly she displayed the bodies of the enemies as if they were a chore that had been done fast and carefully. She stares at me with her stunning blue eyes, as if she were waiting for approval. On the inside she was just a child, one that was probably raised by assassins, but a child nonetheless. [You've done a great job.] Jens Mueller That's probably something I should say, considering I'm responsible for her development. low grunting. It seems the guy with the knife in his neck isn't entirely gone. Oh, wait, he's standing up. How did I not see this coming. Naturally, people return as zombies. We would have had to destroy their brains. [Why weren't you aiming for their heads?] Jens Mueller [But that could interfere with the transmission.] Eve Well of course, how could I have been so ignorant It would interfere with the transmission. The transfer of his bloody mind into frickin' space to the damn mothership. Is it too much to ask that someone speaks in plain language for once? Once the fight was ended, the chatter in the audience calmed down as well. The living dead were systematically executed by marksmen from the crowd. Now the head of this party spoke up. He no longer seemed mad, he stopped yelling He looked incredibly sane. [I will now present your choices. You may choose as you wish.] Maniac
