Day 3: Pretty Girls Leave Beautiful Corpses IV

—You will be easy prey for them if you go on like that.

—But they cost me a fortune! They're Kristen Labelle's brand —Kimberly got angry.

—Then give me the damn heels! I'll put them in my backpack. I'll give them back to you later... But you can't go out like that! —Jason expressed his displeasure. At that, the women went barefoot, and Jason put the heels in his backpack alongside Daisy's and Leah's heels.

—I don't understand why we have to do that... —Kimberly was still grumbling. Nikolai told her to shut up and watch the dead women walking around the club, the sound of their heels attracted other members who, attracted by the sound, approached them.

—If you want to die, that's your problem, but you won't wear heels —Jason commented. —Now do you see?

—Shut the fuck up both of you! —Nikolai forced them to shut up as they passed an area filled with couches. The pink and blue lights of the club were impressive, as the bottles of alcohol scattered around the tables and some clothes lying on the floor, such as feather scarves and bras, suggested that people at least did what they liked the most before dying.

Because a group of dead people blocked the entrance, Nikolai saw some glasses, six in all. He got the idea that it was possibly six people who were at the same table and, they had the misfortune to die, because that area was soaked with blood, especially on the chairs and walls.

When Nikolai threw a glass, he realized that the dead had a highly developed sense of hearing, as a large number of them approached the place of impact and all of them hit the wall and tore it. Great was his surprise when he saw how two zombies impacted each other and began to fight.

—Interesting... let's see if...

Nikolai was strategic and threw another glass near a stereo that was blocking part of the track, so when he saw the dead stumbling over the stereo, which was of quite a considerable size, he noticed that, although one fell, the dead that might have followed him did exactly the same thing: stumble, instead of avoiding the stereo.

—They are blind —Nikolai believed he had found the key to success, for he found another peculiarity in them. After taking an empty bottle and throwing it against one of the glass tables, breaking both of them, the dead were attracted by the noise, piling up against each other and, when they collided, they began to attack each other.

—Are you telling me that the dead are violent by nature? —Clark was surprised. —If something touches them, they go into a kind of "rage"...

—I've seen this before... I'm not surprised at all —Nikolai replied.

The group managed to get out of the club and as soon as they did they started running in the direction of Nikolai who was taking the lead. Jason and Markus stayed behind, covering the civilians while Clark carried the injured girl.

The lessons Kimberly took did their job as, when a zombie grabbed Nikolai's arm, Kimberly shot the dead man straight in the head, making it explode. Nikolai didn't have time to thank her and, continued to swing his bat at the dead that were being attracted by the noise.

Markus and Jason had melee weapons, Markus had a golf club and Jason had a baseball bat. With all their strength they attacked the heads of the rotten ones, which were easily detached from their bodies. Jason realized that they were very weak and could easily lose a limb without much trouble.

Daisy realized how difficult it would have been to run wearing heels because she noticed that some of the zombies were faster than usual, so she shot them directly in the chest and they exploded, almost as if they had had a bomb inside and it had exploded.

By the time Nikolai entered the gates of Grand Mont Plaza, he waited for all the civilians to arrive and proceeded to close the gates to prevent the Dark Horse Plaza dead from entering.

Clark felt that he was doing one of the best exercises of his life without thinking about it, for he did have a hard time running with a woman in his arms. Kennedy had the incredible support of an excellent gunner like Kimberly and, behind him Jason and Markus covering him.

As they climbed up the escalator Nikolai proceeded to grab the zombies and throw them to one end of the stairs so that they fell straight to the ground. As the survivors were going up, the zombies were coming down, so anyone who had seen them would be amazed to see the excellent teamwork and coordination that took place right on the spot.

By the time they reached the roof of the shoe store, Clark told Leah that she had to make the effort to go up even if her ankle was injured, so Leah, with all the pain in the world, was forced to climb the stairs, sometimes supporting her injured foot, causing her a lot of pain. Clark told her that she had better rest her injured foot against his shoulder as they climbed the stairs, which worked wonders for Leah who worked as a team with Clark to coordinate and, climb. As Leah climbed, so did Clark.

Eventually they all made it safely to the rooftops just as the rain began to fall.
