Francis and Zoey alternate end

I stood up, grinning at them. “Honestly though Zoey, we need to find a way out of here.” Bill said, slightly pink in the face. I glanced around and made my way over to a table. It held guns, ammo, and a few other things. “Louis, check around and see if there are any bags around here. We will need them to carry food in. Francis, get your lazy ass off the ground and stop smirking at me or I swear that will be the last time you ever kiss me. You go look for food.” Bill just stared at me. “What?” I asked innocently.

“Who put your little butt in charge?” He growled with a small smile. I shrank back with a lopsided smile and shrugged. “Well, you were distracted. So I just kinda took over?” I asked. He just laughed and started searching around. I made my way over to the few trucks that were parked in the shed.  As I began to siphon the gas from them, the men were hunting around for other items we would need. Sauntering over to the table we had claimed as a designated area for our stuff, I paused and did a slight double take. “Bill?” He poked his head down form the loft.
“Yeah?”

Pointing into the corner, I flashed him my wicked grin. “How much fire power would it take to get rid of the horde out there?” He bit his lip and lit a cigarette. “Quite a bit why?” I just shook my head and slunck over to the corner where the items I had found. “Zoey, what are you doing?” Louis asked, popping up beside me. Stifling a yelp, I swatted his shoulder. “Don’t do that! And just getting something to cure our little problem.” He gave me a funny look and glanced over my shoulder.
“Holy shit girl, your not serious are you?” He asked me, backing away from my new toys. “Dead serious. You get our stuff and the other two and meet me at the back of the barn. This is going to cause a real racket, so be ready. Bust open the back door and if there are any infected, just toss one of the pipe bombs.” I instructed him. He shook his head.

“I think Bill is possessing you girl.” He laughed. Just then, Francis and Bill made their way down the ladder and checked to see what I was doing. Hiding my new toys from them, I just let Louis fill them in on what to do. “Everyone get ready.” Bill barked, leading the guys to the back.  Francis hung back a moment and gave me a quick, soft kiss. “Be careful Kitten. I don’t want to lose you after all we just went through. Please hurry and be careful.” He whispered in my ear. I shuddered slightly as his breath grazed my neck.

“I swear that I will be fine and meet you in the back. Now go before Bill kills us and solves all our problems for us.” He just laughed as he darted into the back. Casting my eyes skyward, I breathed a quick prayer to any God or Goddess out there that this would work. Sneaking over to the front door, I pulled the piled up junk away from it and opened it a crack. Lifting my new best friend, I pulled a few of their pins out and chucked them into the middle of the swarm. A few of the infected looked at the little green balls and just stared at them. Running for dear life, I pitched the last couple of grenades out by the tanks and caught up with the guys as they went off.

“What the hell did you do girl?!” Bill snarled at me as the compound continued to explode as gas tanks, trucks, and other explosives went off in a domino effect. “Just had a little fun is all.” I replied, giving him an innocent look. He just stared at me like I was insane before leading us all down the road that lay in front of us like a carpet to freedom. Casting a glance over my shoulder, I watched as the compound became a blaze. Wheeling around, I raced to catch up to Francis. We didn’t know were we were going, or how long it took, but at least we were together, and at the moment, that was all that mattered.
