Chapter 246 Blood Behind the Door
The air was thick with uncase–something was wrong.
“There’s something happening in the basement!” Rhett shouted,

Theresa didn’t hesitate. She and several others rushed toward the source of the voice, but–true to her nature–she left a few people posted outside and ordered Kyle to keep a close watch for anything unusual.
They arrived at the basement entrance to find the door sealed shut with a massive iron padlock. No one else was around.
From the other side of the door came a desperate, muffled pounding. Even pressing an ear close to the thick metal, they could barely hear it.
“Help us! Please, help! Somebody help us!”
Theresa didn’t think. She grabbed a nearby fire extinguisher and slammed it against the lock with everything she had.
Bang Bang Crash.
The lock fell to the floor.
She stepped back, and the door creaked open.
A wave of blood and rot hit her in the face.
Only three people remained inside, but the basement was teeming with the undead. A writhing, endless mass of them.
A fragile wall of compressed air strained to hold the zombies back. Julian, the one nearest the door, pounded it with his fists and sobbed as the barrier weakened.
Then, finally, the door opened all the way.
Julian!” Rhett, filled with an adrenaline–fueled second wind, rushed to the basement entrance and grabbed Julian by the arm, yanking him upward,
Just as Julian was about to reach safety, one of the zombies vaulted over the failing air wall. It launched itself several yards in a single leap, jaws wide.
At the last moment, Nathaniel grabbed his younger brother and pulled him close.
The creature sank its teeth deep into Nathaniel’s back..
“No!” Julian screamed
“Go!” Nathaniel roared, his body twisting with raw strength. He hurled Julian up and out of the basement. Julian hit the ground above with a sob. “ Nat! Nat! What happened?!”
“I’m finel” Nathaniel shouted back, though blood soaked his shirt. He turned to Landon, whose trembling

arms could no longer hold the collapsing air wall.
When it shattered, Nathaniel grabbed Landon and hurled him upward, too.

He didn’t wait for an answer.
Landon soared upward.
Nathaniel stood alone in the breach, backlit by the wave of snarling, reaching corpses behind him.
“Shut the door!” he shouted.
“Nat! No!” Julian lunged forward in a blind panic.
The thick stone door creaked shut, inch by inch.
“Don’t cry, dumb’ss, came Nathaniel’s voice, clear and fierce through the narrowing crack. “You remember what I taught you? I’m gone, so you have to protect yourself now. Be a man. Don’t be a burden to anyone. You’ve always been my pride-
His voice cut off with a strangled cry as a zombie clamped onto his neck.
He raised his head one last time.
His eyes were pale gray, his smile bright.
Slem
The stone door shut completely.
Theresa and the others threw chairs, shelves, anything they could find against it, barricading the entrance.
Julian collapsed to his knees before the sealed door, sobbing until his voice gave out.
Landon lay slumped nearby, barely conscious under the weight of the sleeping pill, but his bloodshot eyes remained wide open.
He couldn’t blink. He couldn’t speak.
Amelia returned to Rhett, her body trembling. He didn’t say a word –just held her close.
Then, a new voice pierced the silence.
“You had your chance at salvation… and you spat on it. Now? There’s no way out.”
A car had parked just outside the window. The window rolled down to reveal a man and a woman in the from seats
“It’s Isabelle and Wyatt, Amelia gasped.
That’s right. It’s me, Isabelle sneered. Her face twisted with hate.

“It’s because of you pathetic parasites clinging to Landon that we’ve gotten this far gone! Madeline is a useless b*tch–I hate her. And you, Amelia, you make me sick, too. Don’t think I didn’t know you’re a space–based ability user, sneaking around, stealing supplies from camp!
Her voice rose, venomous.
“Tanner was a joke. Nathaniel and Julian–just two worthless losers. And Landon? A spineless idiot! I’m sick of all of you!”
She slammed her hand on the dashboard.
You all should’ve died a long time ago! I’ve been waiting for it!”
Inside, Landon–still on the floor–turned his head. His crimson eyes locked on Isabelle through the window.
Wyatt, still behind the wheel, leered at Theresa and the others, his eyes greasy with lust.
“You little sl’t,” he said to her. “Last time, you ruined my chance to join your group. I’m not joining your dumb*ss team now, either. Regret it yet? Well, it’s too la
