《Alternate Dreams》Dream 28
Advertisement
Eian's day could get any worse. Actually he wasn't even fucking sure it was a day or more than one. Fuck being fit. What he went through wasn't bloody fucking worth it a shit, literally. Stabbing pain on his belly for close to what Sarah says is six hours. He was feverish all the while and the pain raidiated in waves throughtout his entire body, from his stomach. He had almost prayed for death, the pain went for a while then suddenly BAM! another stab. He could never get used to it, easing slightly only to return with crippling vengence.
'I hate this fucking place , I hate everything!! UGH.' Eian thought to himself.
He had been shtting his guts out all the while, only for the intense hunger to return shortly after. The most horrible thing was that even after the tattoo stopped glowing he was still hungry. He was chewing on delicious chewy turtle jerky with a vengence. He definately was going to yell at that stupid dwarf the next time he saw him. At least no one was mocking him for his entire embarrasing debacle.
'Thank the heavens I'll choose spirit next.' Eian thought grateful for small blessings.
"Eian man, are you alright?" Alex had his eyebrows furrowed.
"Yeah. Peachy." Eian.
"Let's go we're ready." Sarah.
"Yay!" Jessica was extremely happy, which made Eian even more miserable.
Eian had re-equiped all his gear. A metal med-helm, curiass, pair of vambraces, tasset, along with his shield and three weapons: long-sword, mace, spear-axe. His current favorite was the spear-axe, it would let him spear any charging opponent and delivered an amazing whack. The mace had already proven its worth with the turtle. The sword was also awesome, but he felt it wouldn't deliver quite as much force on a blow as his hybrid axe.
Jessica was carrying alot of turtle meat, which Eian was grateful for at the moment. Sarah made him make a stone-gourd for Jessica to carry as well. Well at least Jessica was doing something. Alex was also carrying some meat and Eian stuffed his pockets as full as possible of the food, to snack as often as possible..
They quickly encountered another group of five-skeleton guards and they easily dispatached them. Two for Alex, two for Eian and one for Jessica. The guards had been guarding a stairway that went up. It didn't have light showing through though.
"YES!" Jessica was extremly excited, Eian even slightly agreed with her excitment.
"Be careful." Sarah.
"Let's go." Alex sounded happy
The stairway went one floor up and there was nothing guarding the other end. There was a right and left path and Sarah mentioned them to take the right. Soon Eian heard something, usually the skeletons stood still and they couldn't hear them untill they saw them. It was like they were guarding certain areas and approached only when intruders neared. Now he heard something.
"Guys. Up ahead. Skeletons might be moving towards us." Eian.
"Boys on your toes. Jessica be ready as well." Sarah stood beside Eian for a clear shot.
"Roger." Alex.
"Okay." Jessica.
Eian braced himself behind his sheild and soon heard growling. He readied his axe as well.
'Are there dogs here?' Eian wondered to himself.
Then he saw several humanoid figures run towards him on almost of all fours howling and schreeching.
"AHHHHHHHHH!!!" Jessica.
"Shit!" Eian.
"What are they!" Alex.
"Shield-wall! Line up! Points out!" Sarah.
Eian felt the heat near him rise noticibly. Eian saw two blue fire-balls collide into two seprate creatures and they went tumbling to the floor, howling. The creatures were almost tripping themselves to get to them. Alex came to his right side and the girls moved behind them, Jessica even stuck her long-spear out through Alex's side. They took a low shield-wall stance and took the hard combined impact. They completely halted them on their tracks, and Eian felt some rebound off to the floor. Alex stumbled backwards and Sarah had to steady him, Eian was fine. Something had collided with the tip of his spear-axe and was thrashing to get to him, though his weapon stopped it.

"JESS! HOLD THAT ONE DOWN!" Sarah.
Eian took a quick glimpse and saw another humanoid figure thrashing on the end of Jessicas spear. He quickly focused back in-front and felt hands struggling to reach him. He pushed foward shield and axe, hard. He felt multiple things stumble backwards and he took a vicious swing at a random enemy's skull. He felt his axe bite deep into a meaty connection and the thing stopped moving. Eian kicked the body off his axe and saw something come at him from the side. He blocked its advance with his shield, which didn't faze him.
He saw a flash of blue on his left and heard an impact with a howl. He engaged the attacker on his shield by and swung feriously at a random body-part. His swing send it staggering to the ground and an arm was clearly amputated leakinbg dark blood. Another figure on the floow lunged at his legs and he blocked with his shield low. His amputated friend came back and attempted to bite him. From his angle, aiming with the tip of the spear axe he impaled its head, he withdrew the tip quickly. He had been holding the other at bay with his shield but now he pushed and cleaved it upper skull right off.
Turning he saw the fight had finished, Sarah was even holding up a large blue fire-ball survaying for enemies. Eian turned and saw Alex was helping Jess hold down her speared enemy.
"Jessica kill it. Eian lend her your sword it's longer than hers, while Alex continues to hold it down." Sarah.
"Fine. Here." Eian.
"..thanks..." Jessica mumbled and Eian almost missed it altogether.
Jessica quickly killed the last feral thing with a stab to the head. She gave Eian back his long-sword which he promptly strapped back into its scabbard. Eian looked at the monsters and saw they were definately some type of zombie. They were definately half rotten already and appearently caught fire quickly. Counting the three Sarah burnt to a crisp, there were three Eian killed, Jessica's one and Alex got two. Nine zombies, it could be worse, alot worse.
"Well. We're officially zombie hunters." Eian smiled happy it was over.
"Do you think they can infect us?" Jessica was once more clearly scared, to be fair even Eian was afraid of zombie infection.
"Don't worry Jess I can heal infections." Alex consoled her, Eian always wondered if he just wanted to get into her pants, but honestly he didn't care, he even kinna inwardly cheered him on.
"Relax, even if he couldn't do it yet. It could take days and by then Alex could just increase his spirit to have healed us." Sarah.
"Alex, can you do it just incase please?" Jessica was still scared.
"Sure, might as well heal us all." Alex said, Eian felt relief.
"Good." Sarah.
Alex tried to heal them all and said there was nothing wrong with them. Sarah mentioned he should try again a little later if any of them felt anything. They kept going cautiously. There was a room they passed and upon inspection it yeilded nothing, but a single book Sarah took incase of emergency. Under the flames Eian could see several meters foward as long as the tunnel was straight. He saw multiple figures coming towards them once more.
"Up ahead. I think its more zombies." Eian
"Roger." Alex.
"Again shield wall, Jessica aim for a head if you can." Sarah.
"Y..Yes." Jessica
"Careful Jess." Alex.

Eian noticed it was alot more than he would have expected. A huge combined group of zombies, guard skeletons and a figure in black robes were visible.
"Shit!" Eian.
"Hell!." Alex
"DONT DIE! FIGHT! ALEX CAN HEAL US AFTER!" Sarah
"I'M SCARED! HELP!" Jessica.
There were easily over ten enemies. The zombies were faster and came first. Sarah lit two on fire instantatly and their rolling bodies sent a few stumbling to the ground. Their shield wall sent another three to the floor upon impact. Eian felt others impact and soon he was desperatly swinging to keep the horde abated. He split a skull here, kicked another to the ground and quickly bashed another with his shield with vicious rage.
Eian saw a flash of blue and another went flying. Eian felt something grab his leg and he kicked foward, stumbling and felt teeth bite unto his calf.
"UGHH!" Eian grit his teeth and used his shield to crack it's skull, while he did a teremdous desperate roundabout swing catching something.
"AHHH!" Jessica was screaming in pain.
"JESS!" Alex.
"FIGHT! USE YOUR SWORD!" Sarah.
Something grabbed Eian from the side and he desperatly elbowed it's squishy face sending it tumbling. The shield wall of five skeletons advanced and the group was still desperately fighting zombies. He saw a flash of blue. He screamed and swung his axe decapitating a zombie and he shield tackled another to the floor. Upon seeing the enemy shield wall he had rushed foward in a desperate frenzy. Shield-first he barreled forcefully into the wall and sent two skeleton behind to the floor, he remained standing somehow. He felt something bounce off hard on his curiass. He moved foward and swung at another skeleton whom blocked, he blocked a swing from another skeleton and felt something cut into his arm.
"MMMM!" He groaned in pain.
He saw another flash of blue light and heard an impact. He used his shield as a weapon and punched hard with one arm desperate, then he comboed an axe-swing to its helmeted skull. He impact of the axe sent the skeleton to the floor unmoving, he kicked another skeleton on the floor as it was close to getting up. He felt a sword bounce off his curiass with enought force to slightly stagger him. He somehow blocked another skeletons sword and disarmed another by intercepting its weapon with his own strike. Off-balance somethings tackled him to the ground, they dispated, but burnt hot like acid on his unprotected pieces.
"AHH!" Eian grit his teeth and everything was in pain.
He rolled side-ways and another body drop near him when he hit it. He almost threw himself upwards with his arms, four skeletons were now up. He saw the flash of another fire-ball behind him. He saw a single black orb come at him and he blocked it with his shield, ready the impact didn't faze him much and he charged foward. Shield-first he barreled into the right-most skeleton and saw another ball of darkness headed his way. He felt an axe bite into his arm slightly and jumped foward unto the attacker dodging the dark-ball.
He felt a hard impact on his protected skull, which dazed him, his neck felt hurt. He felt another strike bounce off his tasset and regained focus. A bleeding and battered Alex came to his aid and they split the three standing skeletons. Eian saw a blue-fire-ball impact a skeleton on the floor sending it rolling and he shield-bashed a sword-skeleton. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a dark-ball pass him by. He threw his entire weight into another hard swing unto the shield of a sword-skeleton staggering it hard. He caught a mace-blow to his bicep and he shoved his shield with all his back-strenght unto the mace-skeleton.
Alex killed his enemy and came to help him. Eian killed the sword-skeleton and by then two skeletons were up. A fire-ball streaked fowards passing Eian by and he paid it no heed. Eian and Alex killed their enemies shortly. The fight had ended.
Tallying it up Sarah killed four zomibes and appearently an undead skeletal mage. Eian killed four zombies and three skeletons. Alex killed three zombies and two skeletons, and had helped Jess not get eaten. Jessica had surprisingly killed three zombies, but was badly biten in the process, she was crying.
"Shh.. Jess. I'll heal up up right now." Alex, Eian kind of wanted to punch him in the face.
"...hic..snf..ugh.hu hu hu." Jessica, he kinna felt like slapping her though.
"Don't tire yourself out completely. We all need at least a disinfection." Sarah, finally someone spoke sense.
"...Roger.." Alex.
Jessica sported five bad bites, he healed the worst of them and soon she was in better shape. Alex healed three errant bites Sarah had accumilated. Eian got a disinfection along with Alex. Alex healed his skull incase it was damaged badly, also he healed a bad case of diseased blackish flesh that was making his veins show. Eian's calf was also slightly-healed, along with Alex's serious injuries. Alex was dead-tired after and couldn't heal their lesser injuries.
"Let's find a room and rest. We're in no shape to keep going." Sarah.
"Roger....huff." Alex.
"Yeah." Eian.
"...okay..snf." Jessica
Jessica had protected the food by throwing it behind them, though the one Eian and Alex had was bad due to zombie blood. They retreated towards the room they had found earlier. They rested for three hours, Alex healed them fully and they continued. They only ran into another group of skeletons that Alex, Eian and Jessica easily killed. Alex got two, Eian as well and Jessica got one. These skeleton guards were guarding another stairway, this one clearly showed some light leaking. They easily dispatched the group guarding it, once more they split it: two Eian, two Alex and one Jessica.
Day-Light, beautiful light, just a tiny speck but it was enough to ignite their hope.
"Yes!" Jessica was esctatic at the light, even Eian found himself smiling.
" 'Bout time." Eian.
"Hell yeah man!" Alex.
"SHhhh. None of that. There may be more of those things." Sarah.
"...sorry..." Jessica.
"Roger." Alex
"Oh. My tattoo is glowing again." Jessica.
"Go on." Sarah
Eian saw her select something, he hoped she would get those benifits Sarah kept talking about soon.
They went up the stairs leaking light and were eager to get out of the tunnels.

Hello ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to my first attempt at writing a novel. I am preparing to participate in the 2017 NaNoWriMo event so enjoy the first chapter as that's here early only to ensure that I have a place to post once the event starts. This means the first novel/book will have a target of 50,000 words. I'm excited to attempt this challenge despite the hurdles I will have to overcome. I do have a demanding full time job so planning time to write and make weekly releases starting in November will be my biggest challenge. Also, please accept my apologies on my cover. I'm not an artist and the only digital tool available at my disposal is the stock microsoft paint. So I did my best to create a decent cover as I did not want to steal the work of another. If there are those interested by the end of November in donating a new fan made cover then I will look into replacing the old cover.
