I stood in the small forested area at the edge of the municipal playground property, looking through the trees to the municipal building. A long, modern, set of boxes that strung together to be a school and town offices, it was now Klossinger's house of horrors, a madman who'd lost his mind somewhere along the way as the new plague had taken most of the world, leaving just survivors like me, changed for this new world the immune people who'd somehow escaped it, and Redeyes, horrible degraded tragedies of human mutation.
Manacled to a tree, I stared at the red and green lights on the radio-controlled manacle connected to my shock collar. The red light shone angrily, telling me I would get to Allie too late to prevent the Redeyes from getting her. They'd marched me so far out, it had to be an intentional challenge from Klossinger to me to get her.
I could hear people already, mostly Redeyes growling. Roaring as they picked up the scents of women... somewhere nearby, I could hear female voices. Panicked. Running already.
It seemed like an hour went by, but it was just two minutes. My manacle finally lit up green, releasing me. I moved, leaving it behind, searching on the move for some kind of weapon. I had a feeling Klossinger and Gallicea had left more surprises for me than they'd let on.
It took a moment, but I spotted a large branch, around baseball bat sized, a good size for a club, that had come off a tree in a storm. Screaming nearby, the sounds of Redeyes. It took moments to pull off the small branches, and I was off again, this time toward the fighting.
Just a little further up the treeline toward the building, a pair of Redeyes, neither the big ones, had caught a woman. They'd pounced so quickly, they'd only just been released. They must have been near to her. I raced over, my bare feet padding quickly across the dirt and leaves of the tiny forest.
She was on her belly, flat to the ground, ass held up to one of them as it pistoned in and out of her rapidly, crouched over her like an animal while its friend held her face on its cock doing the same. My heart sank, seeing the long black hair of the Asian woman I'd seen taken from the cell she shared with Allie and others, now limp as she was spit-roasted by these animals. They panted loudly, pressing her back and forth between them gleefully.
"You pieces of shit," I smashed the one at her face across the head, hearing the satisfying crunch of bone as the heavy branch stove the Redeye's head in. The other watched me in shock terror, still pumping absently as I turned to it and rammed the branch into it's chest, "you fucking monsters," I smashed the branch into the second Redeye's face three times, obliterating it.
Falling to my knees, I rolled the woman over. She was gone, face blue, eyes glazed and rolled back. She'd asphyxiated. Unsure what to do, I tried to pull her clothes back in place. This had been what I was afraid of for my women, my friends, one of many things. "I'm sorry. I tried," I whispered to her.
I raced for the edge of the woods, my battle-tested branch clutched firmly in hand. Before I could get to the building, there was a large parking area full of tents and the playground. The Redeye calls in the playground area were getting louder, they seemed to be gathering not far from
the entrance to the second floor.
The parking area was filled with work tents that were a mess of damaged medical gear and vehicles that had been long since looted. I padded slowly through, listening for any incoming attack, catching a Redeye stalking the blonde I'd seen with Allie. She was a pretty little thing, her features would've been harsh on any more fully sized person, but at what looked to be maybe five-two, she was small enough to be striking. The cheerleader outfit she was in was already torn from the claws that had nearly got her.
I crept up on the Redeye, moving as slowly as I could. It slathered and bubbled as it crept toward her, the tents making the sounds echo from every corner. The blonde was trying to find a place to hide, peeking under cots and in old metal lockers for space. I reached out, my hand grasping at the thick black hair of the male, wrenching it back hard, twisting him bodily to the ground and pinning it's hips with my knee as I wrapped my arms around its neck and head. The Redeye gasped and burbled, immobilized, but still trying to fight, and finally the crunch of its neck came.
The blonde spun, hearing the thud of the creature's body as I stood, "oh shit, holy shit, oh thank God."
She was a gorgeous little thing. A thin nose and pointed chin made her round, thin, face quite striking. Dirty blonde hair flipped around her head as she stared at me frozen, knees bent, ready to burst into a run. The cheerleader skirt that she'd been forced into was torn up the thigh across her narrow hip. The top was shredded, scratched across her bare arms, she'd tied it over her small bust, exposing her soft, milky white belly and ribs. I could feel the red, roaring, animal lust rise in my stomach and the back of my mind, but not the intense sweet scent of a woman I had to have. "Why's that," I whispered, noting that the snarling of the Redeye pack seemed to be moving away.
She smiled nervously, walking up to me and grabbed at the button to my pants, "I was hoping you or the black guy would find me, y'know, instead of the violent one, or the Redeyes."
Stunned, I watched at she popped my pants open and took my fly down with one fast movement, "Allie says you're a badass," I held her back as she reached into my pants finding me hard already, "shit, she wasn't lying about this either."
"What're you doing," it took a strength of will I wouldn't have had a few days ago, but I pushed her back. "They could find us any second, I have to get you somewhere safe and find Allie." The blonde rolled her eyes.
