Totally Cliche Action Story!

**Sorry, got caught up in projects for school.**

Later in the night, they all crashed into there seperate rooms, making sure they were secure incase some unwanted guests came there way, they all settled down, deffinately ready for some sleep.

Slade slid off his shirt, and used it as a cusion as he slept on the floor. In his oppinion, it was more comfortable than on the bed.

Kathy couldn't sleep, the pillow was too soft. She was used to Bill's shoulder. But, she wasn't thinking about Bill, she wasn't really thinking about anything at all.

Her and Bill had been drifting for a while anyways, they were on the verge of breaking up when this came along. Maybe thats why she wasn't so upset about him dying. She hated herself for that.

She was suddenly lonely, and not for Bill's company, but for Slade's. She eased out of her bed and wandered down to his room.

Slade jurked out of his sleep by a noise coming from his door. Someone was knocking. Hurridly(?) Slade pulled his shirt back on. He walked to the door and slid it open.

"Kathy?"

"Slade, could i come in for a while?"

"Um, sure, i guess, why?"

"I just feel a bit lonely, thats all."

"Oh." said Slade, he knew she must be lonely after Bill dying. That must have been rough on her, but she had been keeping in her emotions about that so far.

"Come on in." Slade said with a wave of his hand, and gestured her in. They sat on the bed, which even now was more uncomfortable than ever. She looked at him, and Slade looked strait back.

"Slade.."

"Dont worry, i bet your all choked up about losing Bill and you just want to talk about him with someone other than yourself, is that right?"

Kathy looked in disbelief, and laughed.

"Not at all, but nice try wise guy!"she said, and pushed him off the bed. Slade slid into the sharp corner of the bed, and it sounded as though there was metal hitting metal.

"Slade, do you have a gun under your shirt?"

"No, why?"

"Come here." she geastured with her hand for him to come closer, and she turned him around to where the corner hit his back. She started to slide up his shirt, and saw a glint, and Slade grabbed her hand, and slid his shirt back down.

"Please, no questions? I dont like people knowing about my....flaw,formality,or what ever you want to call it.

"What is it Slade?"

"It was a proto type at a science lab. I was just like you, a bounty hunter, which explains all my weapons, but i did bad on a mission, and got my chest almose cut completely off, and this is what they did to replace it."

Slade slid off his shirt, and showed the metal plating that was his chest and stomach.

"It all works perfectly, and i dont even feel pain there anymore, but its kind of wierd sometimes.....well, i think you would understand, right?"

**Sorry its kinda long, if theres something you dont like, tell me, and ill change it**

Marlene lay in her bed, staring at the ceiling. She couldn't sleep. The events from earlier that day kept going through her head. She checked her watch. 2:41 AM.

Suddenly, she heard a door open and shut. Pulling the blankets from her body, she got out of bed and tiptoed down the hallway to Kathy's bedroom.

"Kathy?"

She opened the door. The bed was messy, but Kathy wasn't there. She left the room, and headed toward Slade's. Whispered voices came from behind the closed door.

She turned the knob and entered. "What is going on?"

"Oh, my, wow. AT least tell me you at least got the jerk right?" She heasitantly reached out and swept her hand acrossed it.

"Yeah I got him."

"I hope you don't take offence at this but...this is cool. Do you feel anything?"

"Yeah, and you're tickling me."

"Oh, sorry." She dropped her hands. "And I really didn't come here to talk about Bill. We were kinda in the process of breaking up."

"Didn't you love him?"

"At one point I did, but we kinda fell out of love faster than we fell in love."

Slade noticed the door slowly opening, and grabbed for his shirt, but Kathy stopped him.

"Theres no reason to hide it, its ok."

Marlene came in and gasped. She looked at Slades chest, and wouldnt take her eyes off ot for a while.

"Is that...."

"Yes, its my real chest."

"Is that why it was so easy for you to carry me?"

"Partially, you know, lungs of steal!" Slade and Kathy laughed at this, but Marlene was still getting used to the fact, and looked stunned.

Marlene walked toward them. "Is this what you were hiding?"

Slade nodded, and she sat down on the bed next to him.

"But why did you hide something like this from us? Did you think we wouldn't accept you or something?"

"I just-" he started, but stopped as Marlene threw herself at him, crushing him in a big hug. "Don't hurt me ever again, okay?"

*I don't know what to put*

*Well this isnt good!! now what? Maybe we shoud have a Totally Cliche Action Story DT?

*Or somebody else (you) could post*

It was morning when Marlene finally went back into Slade's room. Slade and Kathy were still sound asleep, snuggling close together.

"Hey guys, come on," she said as she opened up the blinds to let the sun shine in. "It's time to go."

Slade opened his eyes and yawned. "Go where?"

"I think we should leave the country, but we'll need to go find out if our families are okay first."

*Bleh, but trying. Someone's family members could be a zombie, and almost get bittne by it, ect. There could also be an organization trying to contain the zombies and kill them off, so as we try to leave the country or state, they could try and stop us.*

Kathy vaguely heard the sound of voices pulling her towards conciousness, instantly she tried to block them out. She pulled the blanket over her head.

"Come on Kathy," Slade said trying to pull it back down. "Time to wake up."

"No its not," she protested feebly.

"Yes it is, its morning wake up."

"It is not morning, its still midnight, go away!"

"Its my room."

"Oh yeah."said Kathy, slowly coming back to conciousness.

She yawned and got to her feet. She looked at Slade, smiled, and started walking for the door.

"I need to get all of my stuff if were going to leave now." Slade nodded and started to do the same.

"Marlene, you all ready to go? Or do you need to get your stuff?" said Slade, just trying to spark up a conversation.

"No, ive already got all my things, there outide the door." she said.

There seemed to be a never ending silence after that. Jordan walking in right in the middle of the embarrasing silence.

"Hey, are we going somewhere?"

"Yep, were going to make sure that all of our families are ok, you ready to go?"

"Ill go get ready. Somehow though, i dont think they will belive me when i say there are zombies coming for them."

Kathy sauntered back to her room where her stuff was already packed, so instead of packing she fell face first and went back to sleep.

It wasn't thirty minutes later when Slade cracked the door open.

"Come on Kathy, you really need to get up its almost four in the afternoon!"

She threw a pillow at him, "nu uh."

"I'll sit on you."

"That won't get me up will it? If anything it'd make it harder."

"Nevertheless I'm gonig to sit on you if you don't get up."

"I don't care."

"Ok then, you put this on yourself!" i said, and laid acrossed her.

"Ah! Your chest is freezing!"

"Well, thats what happens when its metal! Duh."I said in a sarcastic tone.

She rolled her eyes.

"You know, your suprisingly light." she said.

"Well, thats probly because i dont really need to eat with this thing, just a few cups of water everyday to keep my system going."

"Wow, that must be pretty interesting."she said.
