CHAPTER 11

Logan is driving the Knight Mobile with Charlie and Josaline in the passenger seat.

LOGAN

Here we are.

JOSALINE

Where is here?

CHARLIE

City Hall.

The Knight Mobile pulls up and stops outside of the entrance of City Hall. Josaline unfastens the seat belt and quickly hops out the Knight Mobile.

CHARLIE

Jeez...What's the rush?

Josaline begins to stretch. Afterwards, she takes another look at City Hall and is amazed on how big it is.

JOSALINE

Wow! This place is huge.

Charlie gets out of the Knight Mobile and looks at City Hall with a smile.

CHARLIE

Yeah it is.

JOSALINE

But that car ride was so long.

CHARLIE

Yeah it was.

JOSALINE

And so boring.

CHARLIE

(upset)

Oh man.

Josaline looks at Charlie.

JOSALINE

And it's all your fault.

Charlie looks at Logan as he gets out the Knight Mobile.

CHARLIE

Damn, Logan. Why'd you have to make things so boring?

LOGAN

She isn't talking about me. She's referring to you.

JOSALINE

Exactly.

Charlie looks at Josaline.

CHARLIE

But what did I do?

JOSALINE

What did you do?

Josaline gets angry.

JOSALINE

Enough with that shit! You had a fucking boner for the entire ride!

CHARLIE

If you can prove it, then I'll admit to it.

JOSALINE

I WAS ON YOUR LAP, DUMB ASS! I FELT YOUR FUCKING DICK ON MY ASS!

CHARLIE

Oh yeah... My bad.

JOSALINE

Are you serious? Did you forget or something?

Charlie starts scratching his head.

CHARLIE

Uhhhh...sort of?

JOSALINE

It hasn't even been 5 minute yet! How did you forget already?!

CHARLIE

Well...I didn't find it that important. (But in all reality, it was very important to me. I never felt so happy in my entire life. Score!)

Charlie smiles.

JOSALINE

Why are you smiling?

Charlie stops smiling.

CHARLIE

Oh. I was smiling?

JOSALINE

You are a complete and total idiot.

CHARLIE

And don't you ever forget it. Wait a minute...I think I used that phrase wrong.

LOGAN

Why do you guys argue about stupid shit?

JOSALINE

It's his fault. He started it.

CHARLIE

How?

JOSALINE

Because you're just stupid.

CHARLIE

Hey, leave my stupidity out of this. It's sensitive.

JOSALINE

You see.

CHARLIE

Well, you're the one who always complains about me being stupid.

JOSALINE

It's the natural thing to do. It's human nature.

CHARLIE

If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

Not all the time. Besides, I don't think having a boner is something to complain about.

JOSALINE

It is when it's touching me. Plus, you're only saying that because you're a guy.

CHARLIE

I'm only saying this because it's true.

Charlie looks away for a moment.

CHARLIE

And because I'm a guy.

Josaline gets angrier.

CHARLIE

Look here. As long as I've known you, you've always overreacted when it came to something so childish and stupid.

JOSALINE

Childish?! Stupid?! Quit mocking me!

CHARLIE

All I'm saying is, you need to learn how to chill out. Stop overreacting to every little thing.

JOSALINE

Why you-

LOGAN

SHUT THE HELL UP!

They both looked at Logan.

LOGAN

Why can't there be 1 minute of silence when you two are together? You gave me a headache to the point where I want to shoot my balls off!

CHARLIE

I wouldn't go that far, bro.

LOGAN

Too much?

CHARLIE

Just a little.

JOSALINE

Whatever!

Charlie and Logan looked at Josaline.

JOSALINE

I don't have to take this from either of you!

Josaline run into City Hall.

CHARLIE

Josaline, wait!

Charlie chases after her.

LOGAN

WAIT!

Charlie stops running to look at Logan.

CHARLIE

What is it?

LOGAN

There's no need for you to follow her.

CHARLIE

What? Why?

LOGAN

Just forget about her for the time being. We have to go meet someone.

CHARLIE

What are you talking about? There could be Zombie's in there! She could be in danger as we speak!

LOGAN

She'll be fine, I guarantee it.

CHARLIE

That's something that I just can't agree with. I'm not just going to sit by and hope she's safe. That's just not my style. Not anymore, anyway.

LOGAN

Trust me, she'll be fine.

CHARLIE

Why should...You know what? Scratch that! No! I'm going after her whether you like it or not!

Logan runs to Charlie's side at break neck speeds and puts his blades close to Charlie's neck.

CHARLIE

W-What are you doing?

LOGAN

What do you think I'm doing? I'm preventing you from doing whatever you want to do.

CHARLIE

You bastard! I knew you were up to no good ever since that phone call! Who was it?!

LOGAN

Wouldn't you like to know?

CHARLIE

Actually...yeah.

LOGAN

Well, I'm not telling. L.O.L.

CHARLIE

Why?

LOGAN

Because I don’t want to tell you.

CHARLIE

Not that. Why did you spell it out?

LOGAN

What? L.O.L?

CHARLIE

Yeah.

LOGAN

To make it funnier.

CHARLIE

Don't quit your day job. You're not funny. You were never funny and you will never be funny.

LOGAN

A lot of talk coming from a guy who's the butt of everyone's joke.

CHARLIE

You take that back!

LOGAN

Make me.

CHARLIE

I'm not as weak as you think I am.

Logan starts laughing.

LOGAN

Do you honestly think you can beat me, bub?

Charlie gets nervous and starts sweating.

LOGAN

What's wrong, speechless? Scared stiff? Frightened by my strength? If I were you, I would be.

Charlie begins to sweat, tremendously.

LOGAN

What's the matter, bub? You're sweating so much, it looks like you pissed yourself.

CHARLIE

That's...not sweat.

LOGAN

...You're disgusting, bub.

CHARLIE

But Logan, very soon, I'm going to kick your ass. You will regret the day you made me piss myself.

LOGAN

I didn't regret last time.

CHARLIE

I was five. That doesn't count.

LOGAN

Whatever.

Logan retracts his blades and punches Charlie in the face, knocking him unconscious.

LOGAN

Keep thinking that way, bub. It's still not going to get you anywhere.

Logan picks up Charlie and carries him into City Hall.

(Meanwhile)

Josaline is walking down a long hallway with doors on each side.

JOSALINE

Those stupid idiots. Who do they think they are? They get on my nerves, especially, Charlie. I should have slapped him when I had the chance.

Josaline hears something.

JOSALINE

What was that noise?

Josaline begins to look in every direction. Suddenly, a door opens in front of her.

JOSALINE

Who's there?

Josaline slowly walk slowly towards the door.

JOSALINE

Logan? Charlie? Is that you? If it is, you can come out now. I'm not having fun.

The noise stops.

JOSALINE

This isn't funny.

Suddenly, Zombie's come pouring out from behind the door and begins to walk towards Josaline.

JOSALINE

ZOMBIES! Haven't seen them in a while.

Zombies were still moving towards Josaline.

JOSALINE

Oh yeah...I should run.

Josaline runs away from the Zombies.

JOSALINE

I have to find somewhere to hide!

As she runs around a corner, a door opens.

JOSALINE

Are more Zombies going to come out?

As she runs pass the door, she is pulled into the room and the door closes

JOSALINE

Hey. What do-

Someone places their hand over her mouth.

???

Shhhhhhhhhhhh.

They can hear Zombies slowly walking pass the room.

???

Ok. It's safe to talk, but keep your voice down.

Josaline removes their hand from her mouth.

JOSALINE

Just who the hell are you?!

???

Shush! I said keep your voice down.

Josaline quickly covers her mouth with both her hands. Three seconds later, she slowly removes her hands from her mouth.

JOSALINE

I'm sorry, but who are you?

???

That's rude. You should introduce yourself before you ask others to introduce themselves.

JOSALINE

Fine. My name is Josaline. What's yours?

???

I'm Candice.
