“No. Something doesn’t add up,” Birdie agreed.

“Men out front,” Sapphire said, shoving Wylde.

“Thought you were badass women,” Hatton retorted.

“We are. And we know when to sacrifice pawns,” Sapphire barked.

Hatton chuckled as Stitch finally climbed down from his back. “Yeah. You can do this.” She patted his arm in reassurance.

“Zombies, it’s the dead walking,” Birdie suddenly muttered.

“Why? Why would you say that?” Tinkerbell shrieked and dragged Teddy back to her.

“Still having my children?” he teased.

Tinkerbell shook her head. “Dude, I’ll serve you naked and suck your cock whenever you wish; don’t let the zombies get me,” Tinkerbell retorted, her eyes wide.

Hatton, Blue, Priest, Cassidy, and Wylde began walking out. Tinkerbell trapped Teddy, and Sparrow had a death grip on Warrick. They reached roughly a quarter of the way across and paused before frowning.

“There’s nothing here, come on,” Blue called, looking puzzled.

We set off marching out, and their eyes widened.

“Keep coming,” Hatton ordered. “Don’t look back.”

Of course, we all looked over our shoulders. I winced as several of my sisters hit that high-pitched scream.

“I’ll be your sex slave for life!” Tinkerbell yelled, climbing Teddy like a monkey. A swarm of zombies was climbing out of hidden graves. The grass rolled back, and a body popped up.

Sparrow crumpled in a heap, babbling, and Warrick picked her up.

Candle began dragging Poker away, and Rose jumped around on the spot. Hatton rushed in and grabbed Rose even as Stitch had a chokehold on him.

As we raced across the field, bodies leapt up. Screams and shouts bounced everywhere as we continued heading for a building in the distance. I laughed as I ran, but I stopped when one sprang up right in front of my face.

I screamed, swung Blade at it, and kept running.

“Belladonna, you bitch!” she yelped.

Among the graves being triggered, I noticed some were actually moving, and real zombies were crawling out of them.

Wylde reached the building’s door first and held it open. “Come on!” he yelled.

We tumbled into a brightly lit room. Delicious smells greeted us, and I realised we were in the café. We stared at the staff as they smiled.

“Grab some tables, we’ll take your food and drink orders,” a woman said.

We swapped glances and began laughing. That was quite an abrupt shock and certainly not what we’d expected. Talking about a total contrast between scenes!

Chapter Three.

“Okay, I’ll give you that; it was fun,” I admitted to Belladonna, who smirked.

“Yeah,” she replied, eating her fries. “Who’d have guessed Tinkerbell was such a slut?”

Tinkerbell scowled. “I said those things under duress; they can’t be held against me!”
