《A Hard Game (Dropped)》Escape
Advertisement
Von and Ku froze, eyes trembling at the large figure ahead. It's upper body was covered with bulging muscles comparable to the tank behind them except it had a pair of legs with matching muscles.
Von's head raced in thoughts despite the deafening steps the tank ahead took. His eyes scanned the area before shaking his head in dismissed the idea of rushing towards the car wholeheartedly.
He glanced towards the other tank... before shaking his head with the same expression. There was no way he could just pass through the horde without preparing himself to get absolutely demolished..
Von let out a soft breath as his eyes turned towards a set of four floored building to his left. It didn't have roads but instead had large pedestrians. It was a street market.
The market showed signs of fresh ingredient such as sea food and fruits but without the fresh part. In it's place was rotten meat, fish and fruits scattered around like a tsunami had passed by.
But that wasn't what caught Von's eyes. The pedestrian was wide, but not too wide to let a horde run freely. More than that, it's design were full of sharps that a person not familiar to these parts may get lost within the first few turns.
Normally, a place like this would be infested with a scary amount of zombies but, they all seemed to have gathered behind the muscular tanks.
This was perfect.
Von didn't waste anymore time and quickly ran inside the mini-maze. Ku seemed to realize Von's idea as he gave no signs of complaint or question, instead tightening his grip on Von.
They took notice of the horde relentlessly trailing they're position with grim faces. The horde seemed to disregard pain and health as they pushed each other, some falling and getting trampled by others. As for the tanks.. well, they were literal tanks. They just smacked the normal zombies around with their muscular hands like flies and was catching up to them despite their large frames.

Von only gave a calm but serious face as the horde closed the distance after abruptly blocking the flow of energy to his legs. Ku had closed his eyes, hanging tightly to Von's body as they came to a sharp deceleration.
This proved to be effective as the made the turn ahead safely, unlike the horde behind them
The zombies was not expecting for Von to suddenly turn.
A few went zooming away from the turn while others violently smashed towards the buildings. The two tanks in particular shook the building to the point that Ku and Von thought it would collapse.
Von felt his reserves dropping to a critical state. He estimated that he had less than five minutes before completely eating all his reserves.
With a the constant pressure behind him, Von pushed out more energy towards his legs and felt his speed rise dramatically.
He would lose in an endurance game, he had to muster all he can and lose the horde before his stamina falls.
Ku's mouth opened in amazement as he felt the wind hit his face. Much like hanging his head outside the window while driving in a highway. Besides the sudden increase of speed, the pace was insane. He couldn't even compare it with a few athlete runners he had seen from television.
"Wow.."
Von focused on regulating his speed and missed Ku's amazement. He maneuvered through the change in directions swiftly, cutting off the flow of energy just before the turn and kicking off towards the turn with a burst of perfectly timed energy before going full speed again.
Slowly, the distance from the horde became larger and larger until they completely lost them.
Ku tightened his right hand to get Von attention and informed him with caution and a small relief. Von only nodded as he felt his legs burn in pain now that the constant pressure of getting eaten was gone. He closed off the flow of energy, saving what ever was left of his reserves and opting to use his body's physical capabilities alone.

Although it was hard, he pressed on until he came across a building of rent-able rooms. He channeled a tiny amount of energy towards his ears and suddenly heard everything within a fifty meter radius around him. He focused solely on the building and found that although it had a few zombies inside the rooms and halls, it was relatively safe.
Von put Ku down to the ground as he felt his body nag him of how tired it felt while his brain flooded him a feeling of numbness.
"I need some rest, so we're stopping by to sleep" Von said quietly, still feeling the grim atmosphere flow through his body.
Ku could only nod himself as he wasn't any faring better. He was a child after all.
They're morning started off with such an intense chase. It was only fair that they got their afternoon nap.
