Suzy’s Strange Saga
And with that lie you hear from Johnny, your head drops briefly in despair. With tears in your eyes you look back at Johnny.
“I…don’t believe you…and if I don’t believe you, I can’t trust you. (sob) And if I can’t trust you…(sob) I…I…”
“You have to kill me.” Johnny says for you.
“I’m sorry…” you say.
Johnny just stares at you and a tear actually comes down his left eye.
“Nobody is ever going to love you like I will Suzy.”
“That… I do believe.”
You then shoot Johnny. The first shot hits him in the body, causing him to fall backwards, but not enough to kill him, but you soon get over your shock and sorrow not just by remembering that he’s killed Julie and Donna, but that eventually he’ll kill you as well.
You don’t stop pumping rounds into the son of a bitch until the pistol is completely empty.
Johnny’s body lies motionless in a bloody mess. His eyes still open, staring at you even in death.
You slump down on the floor crying that it had to be this way, but it was survival.
After a few minutes of releasing your sadness, you realize that you can’t just leave Johnny’s body down here. The problem is you can’t very well carry it up the ladder from the shelter either, at least not in one piece.
You slowly get up and head back to the armory. There you find a good-sized machete that looks very sharp. You also get some garbage bags you saw in one of the supply rooms. You’re not sure why Ben had them down here, but it’s handy that he did.
You go back to Johnny’s body. You think about dragging the body to the shelter’s bathtub and doing your grisly work there, but you decide the best thing you can do is just to get it over with. You lay out some of the bags on the floor and roll Johnny’s body on to them and get to work.
It’s not an easy task for you and you get physically sick more than once, but eventually you get through it. Johnny’s limbs, torso and head all get put into bags. You then make several trips up and down the ladder to haul the pieces up to the basement. It’s still an exhausting task, even more so after having to go through hacking him up and the emotional drain you feel from it.
You don’t go any further than the basement after you’ve hauled all of Johnny’s parts up. You’re just not in the mood to deal with more. You look at the blood-drenched fatigues you’re wearing and strip them off to throw them into one of the bags.
Leaving the “body bags” by the entrance, you go back to your room to get a spare set of clothes. You also see Kelly’s body still lying in a heap there. Just reminds you that you’ll have more cleaning up to do tomorrow.
For now though you grab something comfortable from the closet and head back down to the shelter where you take a long hot shower. Afterwards you go to the bedroom and collapse on the bed, completely spent.
Doesn’t take long for you to fall asleep, it’s a welcome escape from reality.
