Mina and Van Helsing were sitting
quitely in their train car, Van Helsing reading “How to Stake the Life Out of
People: Impaler Stye” and taking notes on the back of his tea napkin.
“Van,
I think you've learned quite enough about impaling for today, why don't you
find out how much longer this train is going to run..”
With
no response, Van Helsing pretended he had heard nothing and continued turn the
pages. Mina sighed with disappointment, stood up from her seat and proceeded to
the front of the cab. The steward opened the door Mina to pass through and
slipped him a nickel for his services. As soon as the door closed behind her,
the train shifted violently throwing everyone around. Mina collapsed into an
empty seat and held on tightly as the rest of the passengers began looking
around to see what damage may have occurred. Voices began chiming in saying
things like, “Oh, are you alright” and “what a doozy”. What the members of the
train didn't realize was the the lead train car had been derailed from the rest
of the line and the train was no plummeting out of control towards a trackline
with debris from a recent storm blocking the track. After gathering her
thoughts, Mina looked outside and saw two men racing on horses after them.
Suddenly, a hand grasped her side and pulled her through the window. Before
Mina could get her bearings straight, she was wire walking along the side of a
rushing locomative waiting for the two horsebacked riders. Mina now saw the
rocks, trees and rubble that lay ahead of the rushing train and realized the
situation fully. Above it, a twirling, thunderous tavern of darkness lay above
the trees that lay around the trees following along the river. Mina had the
inclination that this rubble ahead was no means of just some faulty cliffs.
The
train continued to rattle and sway and it seemed for Van Helsing and Mira that
they would surely not make it out of this scenario without these riders coming
to their rescue. With a little bit of a struggle and lots of other climactic
shit, Mina and Van Helsing got off the train as it plummeted into the tree and
rocks creating a massive cloud of black smoke. The smoke covered the rest of the
sky with the same black haze that settled over the river valley beyond them.
“Not
sure what kind of storm is brewing over there but I know I have no interest of
riding into a crash,”
Suddenly, the ground rattled and
people's balance began to fleet from them. Trees were derooted and a swarm of
animals rushed through the land past our battling characters.
“AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!”
SHAPOW!
BWAM!
BRRRRRUUUUMMMMMMM!
Apocalyptic
zombies were now swarming the land that lay below the dark swirling clouds,
armed with bazookas, chain saws, and swords made of fire. An air strike was
called by the Nazis up north and suddenly the black sky was peppered with
planes dropping bombs on the land below. The darkness was being overpowered by
the explosive fire that began to burn down the bodies. As Mina and Van Helsing
looked up at one another, surrounded by zombie-Nazis.
