Go on zombie patrol with Holly and Jack
From Create Your Own Story
"I've been running from those slimy bastards for too long," you say. "I'd love to turn the tables and go hunting them with you."
"Great," says Jack. "Let's get our weapons ready." He reloads his rifle, then grabs a battle axe off the wall and tucks it into his belt. Holly knocks on the bedroom door to inform Annabelle of the situation, then gathers up her bolts. She takes a short sword from the wall and straps her crossbow to her back.
You make your way over to poor dead Steve's corpse and go through his pockets, gathering three magazines of ammo. You quickly load one into your pistol, then pat the sword now sheathed on your hip. "Okay, I'm ready."
Jack takes the lead, pointing around with his rifle, as the three of you make your way through the broken window. Holly motions for you to go next. You step outside apprehensively, taking a deep breath and keeping a tight grip on your pistol. Holly climbs out behind you, crossbow at the ready.
You find yourselves in an overgrown garden with the castle walls on three sides. On the fourth side, straight ahead, is a dense row of bushes. Everything seems quiet.
"Looks like they're g..." Holly begins.
At that moment, a horde of zombies bursts out from the bushes and charges. "Shit, I jinxed it," sighs Holly as she sends a steel bolt right between the eyes of the zombie in front. She reloads impressively fast and aims at the next undead. Jack begins blasting away with his rifle. Your heart racing, you join in, shooting zombies in the head as fast as you can without compromising your aim.
Together, the three of you take out over twenty-five zombies, but then the survivors are upon you. Grimly, you draw your hand-to-hand weapons. Jack smashes his axe into zombie skulls one after another. You and Holly, finding yourselves separated from him by a mass of creatures, stand back-to-back, decapitating zombies with your swords.
The undead, seeing Jack by himself, converge on him. "Shit. We've got to get over there. Come on," says Holly. She swiftly performs a roundoff followed by a series of back handsprings, backflipping right through the zombie horde and knocking several of them down. She lands neatly on her feet, stomps a couple of zombie heads into mush, and goes back to work with her sword as she stands next to her husband, who is still braining undead creatures with his axe.
You attempt to follow the path Holly created, chopping off zombie heads as you go and using vicious stomps to crush the skulls of the zombies that Holly knocked down. But soon you find yourself with creatures on three sides. You get into the zone, swinging your sword as fast as you can, trying to keep up with the seemingly endless undead that replace the ones you slay. Finally the herd of zombies thins out as you, Holly, and Jack each work on it from three sides of a triangle, giving you some breathing room. You sigh in relief.
"Look out, Marina!" comes Jack's shout suddenly. You see a zombie hurl a stone at you.
- Throw your sword at the zombie
- Do a standing back handspring to avoid it
