Rebirth in the Apocalypse: Third Time's a Charm-Chapter 405 First Step To Becoming The Queen
We drove down the street for almost 30 minutes until Cerberus came to a stop. "I can't go any further," said Cerberus hesitantly.
Looking up, I saw that the street was completely blocked by a horde of zombies. "Great! Thank you so much," I said with a smile on my face as I turned to Violence. "This is your plan, what's the next step?"
"Now, you go out and challenge the Alpha. He will be stronger than any you have dealt with before, but if you want him to be your Beta, you will have to win," said Violence with a shrug of her shoulders. The bitch had finished off my mint ice cream and now was working her way through a tray of brownies.
"Wish me luck," I chuckled, ignoring the fact that she was eating all the food I was hiding from Bin An Sha.
"You don't need luck; you just need to get some exercise," she replied back, holding up a brownie into the air. I looked at it and held out my hard to her. She raised an eyebrow before taking a giant bite from it.
"Bitch," I grumbled, swiping a square off of the tray on her lap.
"Wrong personality," she replied with a smile. "But you might want to hurry up. Cerby ratted you out to your boys."
"Damn it, Cerberus!" I growled under my breath as I opened the door and stepped out. Taking a bite of the little piece of heaven, I walked towards the zombies.
The Alpha was massive compared to me, looking more like a Reaver than an actual zombie. I could see why he was the 'King' of his horde.
He started at me, his body swaying back and forth. Now that I had seen them in their natural environment, I couldn't help but feel less intimidated by the zombies on land. Oh well, it wasn't me that needed to be intimidated.
Hearing the sound of motorcycles approaching, I quickly stuffed the brownie into my mouth and licked my fingers, refusing to turn around to look at my guys.
"That would be because her cheeks are puffed out like a chipmunk's. I am sure that it is adorably cute," chuckled Wang Chao, and I looked over my shoulder at the five men. I wouldn't have to look like this if the guy he brought back with him hadn't threatened my sweets.
What is a girl to live on if not cakes, squares, cookies, tarts, pies, and ice cream? They are practically their own essential food group!
"We won't stop you. You do what you need to, and we will be here as backup," smiled Wang Chao, his hands in the pockets of his pants and his muscles straining against his shirt. I knew that it wasn't easy for him to say that, so I blew him a kiss in thanks.
Licking the last bit of chocolate from my fingers, I turned my attention back to the zombie 'King'. "I want your horde," I said in as straightforward of a manner as I could.
"No submit," sneered the zombie as he stared down at me.
"If you don't submit, you will die, and I will take them anyway," I answered with a shrug of my shoulders. "It will be easier for me to kill you than it will for me to make you submit. Are you sure you want to go that route?"
The zombie tipped back his head and let out a deafening roar that seemed to shake the very ground beneath us. Even the smaller hordes that had been following me for the past little while froze as a result of his challenge.
I tipped my head back in return and let out a roar of my own. When it was done, I straightened my head and twisted it from side to side, loosening up the muscles. I wanted to fight him, I realized. Not simply to make him submit, but the idea of actually fighting was causing my blood to boil.
Not giving either one of us a chance to think things through, I ran straight for the zombie and leaped into the air. With a smirk, he gripped me by the throat, thinking that this was going to be the end of me. Unfortunately for him, that was the exact reaction that I wanted.
I had no way of being able to reach higher than his chest if he wasn't willing to help me. Calling one of the K Bar knives that I had fallen in love with, I slashed his elbow, causing him to bring me in closer to his face.
With a backhanded stroke, I sliced his neck, planting a tiny spark of my purple flame into him. Since breathing was starting to become a problem, I gripped his hand that he was using to grip my neck and called on my ice.
Blue crystals flew out from my hand, encompassing his hand and arm all the way up to my cut on his elbow. He didn't cry out, but I knew for certain that he had lost the use of his right hand. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹．𝗻𝐞𝘁
Bringing the handle of the knife up, I slammed it down on the crystals, causing his arm and hand to shatter. I fell back to the earth, now that there was nothing to hold me up, and I bent my knees to absorb the weight of my fall.
"Fun," said the zombie as he shook the stump that had shattered.
"Isn't it, though?" I replied with a smile. I think I was enjoying this as much as he was. We both waited the moment it took for his arm and hand to regrow and then smiled at each other.
This time, it was his turn to rush towards me, his big beef right fist up in the air, trying to pound me into the pavement. Unfortunately for him, I was small and maneuverable, which meant that I was easily able to spin around to his unprotected back. I sliced the back of his knee, causing him to stumble forward.
Using the K Bar, I dug it into his back and called out a second twin, knife. From there, it was as simple as alternating each knife like a pickaxe as I climbed up his back to sit myself quite comfortably on his shoulders, right behind his neck.
