Warning: This story contains some extreme content. While there are no depictions of violence of any kind, this story features things like blood, parasites, body invasion, and a bunch of other twisted things that could classify this as a type of erotic horror. For those of you who have read Heaven's Kingdom and liked that, you probably will not like this as it is an extreme departure from the vanilla stuff of that story. Given the content, I definitely don't expect this to be nearly as highly rated as my other story but still. Consider yourself warned, check the tags, and consider very carefully if this is something you want to read.

Back 4 Blood: Corruption
Finleyville, Pennsylvania
Karlee's heart thumped in her chest like a hammer as she entered Finleyville's abandoned movie theater. The savage Ridden that still occupied city outside the walls of Fort Hope could still prove to be more than a minor nuisance. Though thankfully, no mutations accosted her on her trek through the town. As carefully as she selected her route, her gut feelings often saved her life just as much as her guns and knives.
Still, even with the lack of any horrific abominations today, carving her way through Finleyville left her absolutely drenched in blood. She'd need to wash her clothes again when she returned to the fort, probably with her still wearing them.
At least, she should.
Closing the door behind her, she quietly slid the makeshift lock bar back into place. Thankfully more than enough excursions to the theater revealed the side door she'd just entered through was the only way in or out. With the bar in place, she slid a nearby desk back into place, sealing the already boarded up door behind her.
With a sigh, she set down her supply bag and trusty AK-47 on a nearby bench, taking her blood-stained spot beside them. The hard part of getting here was over.
Now her twisted fun could begin.
She quickly pulled off her boots and socks, placing them beside her. She removed her jacket and tossed it to the floor besides her boots before stripping off her crop top hoodie. Her bra followed shortly after. Next came her leather pants which she wiggled out of with an excited desperation wholly inappropriate for her place in an abandoned movie theater in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. Her panties, the last thing left, she quickly slipped off and tossed into the bloody pile of leather and fabric beside her.
Though her outfit took much of the abuse, plenty of blood still covered her face and hair as well as her stomach where exposed midriff lay painted red. She ran her hands over her washboard abs, rubbing the filthy blood up her chest, leaving bloody hand smears across her pale tits.
Karlee leaned back on the bench and shuddered as she tweaked her pierced nipple. She gave her breasts a gentle squeeze before rubbing what remained of the blood on her hands into the skin of her neck. Her hands moved lower to her shaved snatch as she collected more blood from her belly and began to rub her lower lips with it. Like some kind of twisted lotion, she spread the evidence of her Ridden slaughter over her skin, down her thighs and to her feet.
No doubt she looked like something out of an erotic horror movie, nude and covered in blood.
She never felt sexier.
Before her animalistic instincts overtook her, she reached down to her clothes and pulled her holster from her pants, strapping it to the bare skin of her thighs. As illogical as it seemed given her plans for herself this evening, it certainly didn't hurt to carry her trusty suppressed Tech-9 with her, even with the building secure.
After pulling her socks and boots back on, stood up and stretched; nude, covered in Ridden blood, with a gun strapped to her leg, she must have been quite a sight. Somehow, she felt even more naked with her boots and socks and gun strapped to her thigh.
Now
she never felt sexier.
Glancing ahead at all the rows of archways that led to empty theaters, she stepped forward and began to move deeper into the building. Karlee felt herself smile. Immunity to the Devil Worm corruption certainly came with its perks. And excursions like this certainly counted as one of them.
Stepping into the lobby revealed more the building to her. While it was technically listed as the town's movie theater, the large open lobby plaid host to numerous other establishments, making the space feel less like a theater and more like a small mall. Various shops, restaurants, and even a gym could be found inside.
At least they could before the collapse.
Now they lay in ruin as mostly empty shells of their former selves. When the collapse came, the theater building found itself boarded up and fortified almost immediately, serving as a rudimentary haven to the survivors before they fled up to Fort Hope. In the time since, it had been almost all but forgotten.
Still, while the fortifications stopped the larger ridden and their dangerous mutations from entering and ransacking everything, it didn't stop the worms themselves.
Karlee moved deeper into the lobby.
Organic masses began to appear as she approached the gym, cluttering the abandoned space like tumors. The closer to the gym she got, the density of the masses increased until, once in through the doors most the gym's floor and walls lay covered in fleshy, organic masses. Wet and soft, they squelched under feet as she moved deeper passed the half-encased workout equipment. Much it appeared like large organs, clumped together and then vomited out over the space by some kind of giant.
Wet with unknown mucus, slime, and in some spots, blood, parts of the flesh seemed to almost breathe as she walked deeper to her destination. Given how alive this part of the building appeared, it wouldn't have surprised her.
Hell, it probably would have excited her more.
Karlee grinned.
Even before the collapse, Karlee certainly never felt like anything approaching normal. A book of tattoos painting her skin like line art waiting to be traced, piercing in places most people wouldn't dream of, she'd always lived on the edge of human experience. And now with the collapse, the edge of human experience turned from a small drop to a cliff.
A cliff she happily jumped off.
Before the devil worms and the ridden, indulging her more twisted and perverted urges was far harder. Now with the collapse of wider society, and her natural genetic immunity to the devil worms and their diseases, the apocalypse became a playground.
Deep inside the gym, she approached the pool. Or rather what remained of it.
Stepping out of the locker room, the darkness of the abandoned space gave way to an open pit tiled pit of flesh. Large organic masses covered the walls and floor, revealing a large bloody growth in place of chlorinated water. Numerous pods and buds covered the flesh walls, the irregularly shaped surface of the blob in the pool allowing for strange slimes and other red liquids to pool.
Occasionally a tentacle would slip out of the one of the buds, wiggling provocatively before disappearing. The whole structure appeared to pulsate slowly, as through breathing or moving to some giant's heartbeat. The entire thing reminded her of a redder version of a Flood infestation from Halo.
The strange comparison wasn't too far off.
The blood rushed up to Karlee's face, among other places.
Had she been a normal human, she'd have been killed a while ago and turned into one of the lumbering zombies outside. With her immunity, however, she could indulge herself and remain completely uninfected.
Best of all, Fort Hope wouldn't be expecting her back for a few days at least.
Karlee smiled, "Time to play."
With the giddy enthusiasm of a schoolgirl, she bounded toward the shallow end of the pool, hopping down into the pit. The sound of the flesh squelching under her boots sent shivers up her spin as she danced down the flesh slope to her favorite spot. Tentacles emerged from the buds, gently caressing her legs as she moved.
Of course, they would. At least from their point of view, as an immune, she was doing them a favor.
