The Dead Will Come 21
The Dead Will Come
Rating: R
Characters/Pairings: The pilots. 1x2, 3x4
Summary: A batch of abandoned toxic waste turns a town into a living cemetery.
Warnings: Zombies, death (not the pilots), gore, language, violence and everything you would expect of a bad B movie. Also humor, hopefully.
Notes: This was inspired by Robert Rodriquez and Quentin Tarantino's "Grindhouse" so if you saw that then you know what to expect. If you haven't, then think of bad 80's zombie movies and you'll get the picture.

Duo glared at the crowd of zombies that were blocking the way between them and the helicopter. It seemed like the whole town had turned into zombies and they had come now to these labs, looking for the last survivors.
"There are too many of them," Wufei said. "We can't fight them all."
"We can take this truck instead and use the roads to leave town," suggested Trowa.
"Yeah, because that worked out so well the last time." Duo rolled his eyes. "Besides, look around, there are vehicles all around us, we are boxed in."
Heero checked his gun. "We fight our way through the zombies and try not to get bitten."
"Easy for you to say," Howard grumbled. "Some of us are too old for this."
"Hey, Quatre," Duo asked, turning to where the blond was putting a gun on the back of his jeans, "can't you just do your zombie king thing and clear the way?"
"Zombie king?" Quatre looked amused for a moment before biting his lower lip. "There are too many of them." He closed his eyes but opened them quickly. "I can try but I won't be able to take all of them down. "
"Are you okay to do this?" Trowa asked. Duo had to smile. The actor sounded nothing like he did on his movies but Duo could plainly hear the concern in his voice.
"Sure." Quatre gave a smile. "Be ready to go as soon as they drop. The others might be dazed for a second and it will give us an advantage." With that he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
This time Duo was able to see how Quatre's brow furrowed in concentration and slowly the glow they had seen earlier that night started to surround him as if it was being expelled by his skin. It was faint at first, almost as if it was nothing but a trick of the light but seconds later it was obvious that it was no illusion at all.
"They are down!" Wufei announced.
Duo hesitated just until he saw Trowa pulling Quatre out of the truck before he jumped out himself, a gun ready in his hand. At least half of the zombies were down, still and unmoving, like dead bodies were supposed to be. Duo shot three zombies before they were even spotted. Wufei had run ahead and was busy taking down anything that was on his way. Heero was beside Duo and they fell into a familiar rhythm, covering each other and killing the disgusting putrid things bent on killing them.
Quatre and Trowa had split at some point. Quatre wasn't glowing anymore and was holding his own very well. Trowa was slightly behind him. A blonde haired zombie girl moved towards Trowa, almost tripping on her own guts. She looked quite awkward, thought Duo, not pulling off the zombie look at all. She seemed determined to get Trowa but before Duo could do anything Trowa had shot her.
Duo killed another zombie he recognized as old lady Fisher and quickly reloaded his gun. He fired two more shots, a couple of policemen he hadn't really ever liked, and then heard a ring among the noises of the gunshots and the snarling of the zombies.
"Yuy," Heero's voice said after a moment.
Duo turned to Heero with an incredulous look. "You have a phone? You're answering a call right now? Where the hell did you hide that?"
Heero shot three zombies, not taking the phone away from his ear, and made a hand signal for Duo to wait.
Duo grumbled. They were fighting fucking zombies, how important could that call be?
Wufei was almost at the plane with Howard who had apparently managed to stay alive and run quite fast towards their destination, despite his complains. Trowa was a little behind, but not too far away and Quatre was at Heero's other side, the phone having apparently also gotten his attention.
Heero closed his phone and put it inside his pocket. "The government decided to take action," he said in a grave voice. "They are bombing Little Town."
As it turns out the call was pretty fucking important. Who would have thought?
