Chapter 36: The mini monsters completely blocked Amy and Reaper from the others. Derek was about to help when he started to shrink. He kept going untill he was normal sized once more. "A-Amy?" "Derek! You're back to normal!" "Yeah," Reaper said. "Unfortunately, that's not going to help us much." Suddenly, the humvee plowed through the crowd and Nick, Austin, Scythe, Casey, Calvin, and Jake lept out. Casey and Scythe tossed Amy and Derek guns. "What the hell are you doing here?" Reaper exclaimed. "If we're going to die," Scythe said cocking her gun. "Then we're going to die together!" The monsters attacked and the fight began. Calvin threw a grenade into the crowd and the explosion killed a few dozen of them. Amy and Scythe were back to back, shooting away. Casey and Reaper had swords and were hacking away at the line of monsters. Derek and Jake were using miniguns and slicing through the crowd. Nick and Austin were in a seperate circle and holding the monsters off as best as they could. "Nick, if we don't make it out of this-" "Don't talk like that Austin. I haven't seen you in years and I'm not going to lose you again!" Amy was grabbed by a monster and pulled away. She was save though as Derek knocked the tentecles around her away and pulled her back. "Amy, I know I haven't exactly been there for you, but-" Amy cut him off with a kiss. "I understand Derek, and I forgive you, but can we talk about this later?" "YEAH! WHAT SHE SAID!" Jake shouted. "Sorry Jake! Hang on!" Derek replied. Reaper and Casey seemed to be doing the best as tentecles and monster peices flew everywhere. "You're pretty good at this." Reaper grunted as he sliced a monster down the middle. "You're not bad yourself." There was a scream, and Reaper turned to see Scythe gettin pulled into the crowd. "Scythe! NO!" He took off with Casey right behind him. Calvin was having a tough time as the monsters overwhelmed him. "Ugh...can't-do-this-much-longer!" A tentecle suddenly wrapped around his neck and he was raised into the air. It quickly relinquished its grip however, as Casey pulled him away. "Scythe! SCYTHE!" Reaper was trying to reach his partner, but it was too late as he saw Scythe's body torn apart and devoured. "NOOOOO!!!!! YOU FUCKING BASTARDS!" Reaper went psycho as he slashed away at the monsters. Finally, a tentecle peirced his rip cage. "Damn..." He collapsed dead. There were so many casualties, but the battle raged on. Finally, a terrible cry ripped through the dusk as Derek held Jake's lifeless body in his arms. His rage boiled over and he attacked the monsters untill he couldn't move another muscle. After hours of fighting, the monsters finally lay dead. Among them were the bodies of Jake, Reaper, Scythe, and finally, Derek. Amy knelt weeping by his body. "The toxins never left his bloodstream. They poisoned him. I killed him." She sobbed into his chest. Casey put a hand on her shoulder and helped her up. "It's getting dark." Austin began. "We should get going. We're not strong enough to take on anymore zombies." With tears still in her eyes, Amy limped to the humvee and got inside. Nick remained on the battlefeild. "Nick, you coming?" Calvin asked. "So much bloodshed...I-I'm on my way Calvin. He got into the humvee along with Amy, Calvin, Austin, and Casey, the last survivors. "Since there is no shelter, I guess we'll just have to-" But Casey never got to finish his sentence. The missle hit first.
7 years later..."Welcome to...The Dome!" The president said. He pulled a cord and a giant curtain fell off a huge glass dome that surrounded the city of New Washington, the last remaining city in the western hemisphere. "While we work on reconstruction, the remaining 10,000 citizens of the United States will live in peace here in New Washington!" "It's everything I dreamed of." Amy said with tears in her eyes. Her husband Casey put his arm around her. "It's everythin we dreamed of." He replied. "And let's not forget to thank Mr and Mrs Lovegood! If it were'nt for them, none of this would have been possible!" Casey and Amy's 3 year old son Derek stood next to his mother, waving to the crowd. "Wow. Do you think after all these years we'll finally have a home to go to?" Nick asked his brother. "I think so little bro." Austin replyed. "It's been so long, hasn't it?" Calvin said. "Yeah," Nick replied. "But its over. Its finally over."
About a hundred miles away in a labrotory deep underground, a team of scientists worked round the clock. "How's she doing?" Jake asked the lead scientist. "Realitivly fine. She's stable." "When will she be ready?" "I'd say a month, maybe two." "Good. Very good. I didn't fake my death just so my plans wouldn't work." Jake stared into the tube at Jen's lifeless face. "I've been planning this for so long. So long. Ever since my father told me about you. About your blood that contains the cure. Once I revive you and combine your blood with my toxins, then you can wipe the Earth of every one of thoses pitiful people...FOREVER!" Jake's laughter filled the cave.
