Welcome to the Jungle
Isabella was running for her life... Again. A horde of zombies trailing behind her, as she threw the empty gun she was carrying to the side furiously.
"How could they leave me..." She kept repeating to herself desperately as she sprinted forward into the shadows. "How could they all just leave me like this?!"
Tears slid down her face as she continued running, feeling the air in her lungs decrease as her stamina was coming to an end. The hungry moans of the zombies behind her were growing louder as she bolted forward frantically, scrambling through dark corridors that seemed to go on forever...
Finally, a light at the end of the hallway flicked on, revealing an open door. Isabella rejoiced mentally as she used the last of her energy to make a mad dash for the only escape in sight. Just as she was about to jump through the opening, the door slammed shut as shocked green eyes met an all too familiar face behind the now closed escape route, grinning in satisfaction.
Confusion, betrayal, anger...
All those emotions rushed through Isabella momentarily as she stared through teary eyes at the face behind the glass seconds before the undead caught up with her. The last sounds she heard were her own desperate yells for help mixed with an insane cackling...
Isabella awoke suddenly from her nightmare to the sound of a monkey screeching in the distance as she opened her eyes slowly, the light from the sun blinding her temporarily. Struggling with the post teleportation nausea, she pushed herself up gradually, glancing at her teammates lying on the ground next to her, still passed out.
Where the hell are we now...? She wondered, wiping the sweat from her forehead as she looked around, seeing nothing but decaying walls being invaded by the surrounding foliage.
A fuckin' jungle? No way...
Hearing a groan behind her, her heart skipped a beat as she spun around quickly, breathing out a sigh of relief when she discovered it was just a certain Marine waking up. Brianna yawned, taking her time in sitting up as she looked around as well, a confused expression gracing her features before she turned towards Isabella and Dempsey.
"What is this place...?" The blonde woman wondered out loud as she stood up shakily, seeing Takeo and Richtofen stirring on the ground in front of her.
The Imperial soldier looked much better, the sickly pale color now gone from his face as he tried to stand despite the dizzying effects caused by the teleporter. Richtofen brushed the dust from his uniform casually as he stood up, surveying the area as he strode over to a nearby soda machine in the center of what looked to be part of a temple or shrine of some sort.
The small blue drink dispenser was missing it's blue glow however, indicating that once again, they needed to turn on the power. Sighing, the doctor returned to their group, eyeing Nikolai, who was still snoring happily on the ground with an annoyed glare. Rolling his eyes, he ignored the Russian for now before turning his attention to Takeo who was inspecting an old totem pole-like statue.
"Ve're in an ancient temple und ze power is off..." Richtofen mused, chuckling a bit while gaining everyone's attention. "Zhat's a veird combo..."
"Wait, the power is out...?" Dempsey repeated, sounding slightly annoyed by that fact. "Does power even make sense in an ancient temple? Seriously, Treyarch...? SERIOUSLY?!"
Isabella snickered at the Marine's comment before she realized that once again, she was only armed with a simple pistol. No fair... She thought, crossing her arms while daydreaming about all the good times and amazing kills she had with the Zeus Cannon...
Shaking her head, she sighed while glancing up at Dempsey who was grabbing a gun off the wall. Nikolai mumbled something about vodka in his sleep before he started to wake up, coughing loudly and hacking up something into the dirt. Brianna raised an eyebrow while fanning herself with one hand, wondering if this was normal behavior as the two women watched the soldier stumble to his feet, groaning and cursing as he did so.
Exotic sounding birds squawked in the distance as the two women fanned themselves with their free hands, suddenly realizing how hot it was in the jungle while Takeo and the doctor were busy examining a strange rock near one of the back windows...
"Tch, screw it..." Brianna mumbled while unzipping her hoodie and revealing the dark purple tank top underneath. "It's too hot to be wearing this..." She continued absentmindedly as she tied the cotton jacket around her waist and walked up to the shrine at the front of the room, admiring the strange ruins. The moment the sweatshirt left the blonde woman's shoulders however, Isabella frowned intensely as she noticed Nikolai and Dempsey stealing glances at her sister's chest.
Fuck my life... Isabella cursed, frowning as she looked down at her own small rack hidden under her t-shirt before glancing back at Brianna who was still observing the scenery, obviously completely unaware as to who might be looking at her with pervy thoughts in mind.
Jeez, her boobs aren't THAT big... Isabella thought, trying her best to make herself feel a little bit better. But compared to me...
Sighing dejectedly at the fact that her sister was obviously more well endowed in the chest area, Isabella's eyes narrowed at the Russian soldier who was practically drooling as she picked up a small rock before throwing it at said man's head. Nikolai was too distracted to notice the projectile heading his way before it was too late.
Great tits... He thought briefly, a second before impact. Just like second wife-
DINK.
Nikolai blinked a few times, slightly confused before he saw the tiny stone hit the ground near his feet, realization hitting him. Frowning, he turned around slowly to face the offender with a menacing glare.
"What the fuck was that for?" Nikolai slurred angrily as he rubbed the spot on the side of his head where the rock had hit him.
"You know..." Isabella said in a low tone, glancing at her blonde sister momentarily who was still unaware of their conversation. "Now knock it off... BOTH of you!"
Shooting one last pissed off glare towards Dempsey, she turned around and stomped away towards her sister who was admiring the dragon statues near the incomplete set of stairs leading up to the altar. Nikolai frowned, cursing and mumbling something in Russian before an awkward silence settled over the area and it's occupants.
"At least we're out of that damn closet..." Tank muttered after a few minutes, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly while smirking at the M14 he was now holding. He looked around suddenly, wondering why it had gotten so eerily quiet out of nowhere...
"Eh, but it was nice break, no?" Nikolai added, looking around desperately for his bottle of vodka.
"For me, that wras a horrible experience..." Takeo stated, shivering slightly at the memory and obviously still a bit traumatized. Reaching for the holster on his waist he frowned, obviously just realizing that he no longer had the ray gun and was once again equipped with only an M1911 pistol.
Isabella smiled briefly at the Japanese man before looking around for the most eccentric member of their team... Standing in the center of the room, he was near a wall close to the Quick Revive, smirking while staring at what looked to be some sort of stone button...
Hearing a scuffling sound behind her, Isabella turned around, watching curiously as the monkey near the statue in front of her back flipped, screeching loudly as it beat it's chest, trying to taunt the unfamiliar humans invading it's territory. The dark haired woman looked around once more, her eyes falling on the platform at the top of the stairs that was at this moment, unreachable.
With her comrades arguing in the background, Isabella began to wonder some things to herself as the sounds of the jungle faded away for a short while. Of all the places we've been... She thought, shaking her head slightly as she continued to observe the strange ruins they were now located in.
I wonder what the story behind this place is...
A groan behind her, followed by the sounds of boards being dismantled made her heart sink as she spun around, pointing her gun at the window she was next to. Unlike the other zombies they had fought previously, these were not undead Nazi's. In fact, the zombie currently pulling the boards down while trying it's hardest to get at Isabella, was or rather, had been a female at one point in time.
Narrowing her green eyes in frustration, she gripped her pistol tightly, aiming carefully for the head before pulling the trigger and making everyone in the room jump.
"What the-"
"Watch the windows!" Isabella shouted, spying a few more undead approaching from the bushes as she aimed again before firing the rest of the bullets in her clip. "These undead assholes are back!"
Boards on the other three windows could be heard falling to the ground quickly, as the groans of the undead got louder as more approached the barriers. Isabella and Brianna worked together to hold down the window to the right of the altar while Dempsey covered the front left window, scoring multiple head shots with his M14.
"Crack shot certification complete!" Dempsey shouted, grinning as he reloaded quickly. "Where's my medal?"
"Oh, everyone look..." Richtofen said sarcastically while firing rounds into zombies trying to breach his window. "Dempshey got a head shot... So vhat?"
The doctor cackled before knifing the last zombie in his window, smirking to himself as the corpse fell to the ground. He continued to defend his window, laughing insanely every time he knifed one of his creations to death. Next to him, Takeo emptied his pistol, taking out all the zombies in his window with shots to the head.
"Yeah Tak!" Dempsey cheered, spying the Japanese soldier's kills from across the room. "You outta teach Dicktofen how to shoot like that!"
Richtofen frowned. "Dempshey, someday you're luck vill run out..." The doctor drawled menacingly, giving the American an insane smile before continuing.
"...Und I vill be zhere."
Brianna rolled her eyes at the two men who were always at each others throats before turning her attention to her younger sister who was currently reloading her pistol while still keeping watch over their window.
"Isabella," The blonde woman said softly, getting her attention while reloading her own gun and watching as Nikolai tossed a grenade into their window. "What's the plan?"
"For right now the plan is staying alive..." Isabella murmured, checking the clips full of bullets attached to her waist while hearing an explosive go off behind her, sending blood splattering against the nearby walls and plants. "But if we're going to do that," She continued pausing before looking at the pistol she was currently holding distastefully. "We're going to need better guns..."
Both women looked at each other with knowing stares for a moment before redirecting their attention to the sky at the same time, searching for the eerie blue light that would lead the way to the mystery box. Spying the column of light across the room, Isabella made her way to the doorway in that direction, stopping when she saw the debris blocking the way.
Hmmm...
Isabella reached forward to clear a path, placing her hand on the metal surface of one of the items blocking their way, but withdrew suddenly when lightning flashed as the debris cleared itself instantly a few seconds after she touched it.
"Woah! That's awesome!" Isabella chuckled as she turned around, spying Takeo and Dempsey still shooting at zombies in their windows. "Hey guys!" She yelled, waving as everyone headed towards the doorway. "Are you ready to get rid of these shitty pistols, or what?"
"Hell yeah!" Dempsey cheered, abandoning his window after seeing everyone else do the same.
A few zombies were pulling boards down across the room as everyone headed towards the doorway Isabella had opened.
Without thinking, Isabella began to walk forward into the small hallway, not noticing the curious holes in the ground beneath her. Richtofen's eyes widened as he observed the trap a moment too late, spying the blood and the tell tale holes on the floor before he could stop her...
"Vait!" He shouted a second before a loud whooshing sound could be heard and multiple bamboo spikes shot up instantly, obscuring everyone's vision of their teammate.
"Izzy!" Brianna screamed, stepping forward slightly as the spikes began to lower. Spotting her sister standing on the other side, she sighed in relief as she heard her laughing nervously while holding onto a piece of her t-shirt that had been snagged by a spike that had gotten too close.
Holy crap on a cracker... Isabella thought, still a bit shaky from her close encounter. That could have been bad...
Richtofen's eyes narrowed, as he watched the spikes retract again, seeing that once again this lucky woman had bested the odds set against her. Fascinating... He thought absentmindedly as he watched the other members of their group dash across the spike trap, waiting for his turn to do so himself.
Izabella und the others vill be of great use until it is time for my mien plan to commence...
"Doc!" Dempsey shouted, interrupting the man's dreams about world domination. "Let's go!"
Looking up, he saw Isabella and Dempsey waiting patiently for him on the other side of the trap as he heard the growling of the zombies finally breaking in through the windows behind him. Trying his best to wipe the insane smirk off his face, he sprinted through the trap quickly as the zombies behind him tried to do the same. The spikes shot up around the undead however, impaling them in various places and dropping them in a mangled heap as more blood began to leak onto the surrounding stone floors.
A few crawlers from Nikolai's grenade could be heard hissing in the distance as the group moved forward to where Brianna and Takeo were inspecting what looked to be a sand pit in front of them...
