Heaven's Demons was situated in the older parts of Synderville. Built in the year after World War II, paranoid developers had equipped the building with an underground bomb shelter, in case war broke loose again. The shelter consisted of a living area, and two small bedrooms. Sadly, it was never used as the developers intended. Over the years, it became storage chambers, a laundry room, gambling rings and more recently a marijuana nursery.

A few years back, the owner of the building, Terry "Redneck" Jackson, turned the rundown place into a bar. Heaven's Demons, it was called. Within a year, the bar had gained enough popularity among the Harley lovers to be the place to be--if you had a thing for bikes. Soon, the small time crooks wanted in; it ended badly, with multiple fractured ribs. This was biker territory, no criminals allowed--unless you had a badass bike.

After the first zombies popped up, Redneck and the other bikers turned the bomb shelter into the food, booze and ammo stash. Marijuana was sold and laundered until there was enough firearms to invade Russia. The rest of the building became the home to many of Redneck's friends and few remaining employees.

Tria Parionni and Josie Helinn walked down the stairs that led to the employee's apartments above the bar. Josie readied the tables, and Tria cleaned the bar. Heaven's Demons would open in an hour, and the other waitress had the flu. Staff was hard to come by these days. Everyone was too busy killing off zombies or finding food. As the bikers poured into the bar, Tria pasted on her sexiest smile and greeted them by name. There were rarely any new faces coming in the door, after all.

Bob would vehemently deny that he was an alcoholic. No way, man, he was just eager to enjoy that first beer of the day. Accordingly, Bob was right there with the rest of the burly men shouldering their way through the door.

Heaven's Demons was the trippiest scene in town--zombies running around everywhere, the world coming to an end, and these cats carried on like it was just business as usual. Bob delved in a pocket and produced a grubby wad of bills, slapping them down on the bar when his turn came. Business as usual was just fine by him. Rolling dead bodies was even easier than rolling drunks.

"Tria, sugar, you look more gorgeous every time I see you." He could no more stop himself from flirting with the waitress than he could prevent the superstitious need to blow the vapor out of the bottle neck before taking that first sip. Anyway, the girls ought to know by now that he was harmless.

"You're looking so good, Redneck's gonna have to rename this place Heaven's Angels," Bob rambled on. Another swig of breakfast, and his eyes actually focused on the woman on the other side of the counter.

"How's it going, kiddo?"

Tria nodded as the bikers ordered their beers, scotchs and rum--no fancy uptown drinks, here. "Good morning, Bob, darlin'. I'm doin' great, as usual. Did you meet any of those things on your way over?"

With one hand, Tria fingered under the bar to locate the mugs. The broken glassware had never been replaced, so liqour was emptied into assorted ceramic mugs and plastic cups. Only a few glasses were left, and Redneck kept those for special occasion. The ones who liked their beer straight from the bottle, of course didn't need any mugs. "You all know I'm the only reason you all are still comin' here everyday."

Tria sent the last order down to the bald biker at the other end of the bar and counted the cash. There was a also a small packet of white powder in her hand. Most people still had money, but for the unfortunately ones, Redneck also accepted other sorts of payment. Drugs, alcohol, ammo, cigarettes, food; anything that was of value these days. "If Redneck ever renames this place, you can be sure I'll put up a fight."

"You kidding? Man, I had to shoot two just to get out my front door this morning," he exaggerated. Yes, there had been two zombies lurking around his crash pad, but Bob had managed to sneak out the back.

It wasn't that he was cowardly. He'd been hungover. Gun shots were a bitch when your head was pounding like Mickey Hart's favorite bass drum.

"If they ran outta beer, you know I'd still come back just to see your sweet smile." Oh yeah, he was on a roll today.

Tria grinned, "Let me go put this downstairs. Help me keep an eye on the bar, please?" Tria winked and sashayed towards the door that led to the storages. She passed by a few on-the-way-to-drunksland bikers along the way.

As she pushed open the door, Tria heard a thud. "Oh shit," thinking it was Redneck or Josie behind the door, Tria reached out to help the person behind the door. She left the packets on the ground and bent down.

But the hand that Tria grasped was not something a normal man--or woman--would have. The skin was slightly graying and held evidence of being chewed upon. It was undoubtedly a hand belonging to someone who was dead. Tria immediately dropped it and let out her best bloodcurdling scream.

"Sure thing, Tria." Minding the bar for a minute or two wasn't a problem. The early crowd was usually pretty mellow. It took a lot to get them worked up.

Bob heard the soft thud and Tria's 'oh shit' but paid no attention, assuming she'd just dropped something on the floor. Then she screamed--exactly the thing to get a bunch of bikers worked up.

He wasn't the first to pull out a weapon. For a few seconds the bar was filled with the castanet clicking of a dozen revolvers getting ready to fire. A couple of the more inebriated patrons actually did fire. Bob leaned over and looked behind the counter, but he couldn't really see what was going on back there.

"Watch out!" he yelled. "Don't shoot the chick!"

Tria stepped backwards, as the figure crawled out of the stairway. It--she refused to even acknowledge a zombie as male or female--wore the famous outfit the staff of Mickey D's, it must have died not long ago because it was fully intact. No missing limbs, or facial features.

The small semi-automatic that Tria usually carried was tucked safely under the bar. She did not think she would need it just yet, she was in a biker bar, for Pete's sake. But at that moment, she wished she had it right in her palms.

The sounds of the bar patrons preparing their weapons did not ease the fear she felt as the thing opened its mouth and moaned.

The zombie lurched up, the waitress wisely stepped back, and half a dozen shots rang out. The corpse dropped back into the stairway with a sodden thud.

Bob slid Martha back into her holster. He hadn't even bothered to aim at the zombie, counting on the other, more trigger-happy patrons to take care of the problem.

"You okay there, sugar?" There was a commotion behind them in the bar room, but Bob ignored it.

Mickey had been dead for a whole of three days. As he crawled into Heaven’s Demons, he had only one thought running through his half-eaten brain—bbrrrraaaaaaiiiinnnnsssss. With his eyes fixated on the human in front of him, he reached out and mumbled, “Brains.” It came out as a groan, as she stepped back.

The hunger was overwhelming, Mickey craved for the taste of human flesh. He could smell the sweet humans, even through his dead olfactory system. He could not think or feel of anything else, it was as if his only goal in re-life was to consume the tasty humans.

Mickey shuddered and fell back as a dozen or more bullets were emptied into his body. He dropped down on the floor again, but that did not keep him down. He did not bother getting up, he just snaked his hand forward in an attempt to drag Tria to his open mouth.

Tria ducked down instinctively as she heard the bikers pull their triggers. A few bullets didn't even come close, and embedded themselves into the wall. They were just shooting in the general direction of the thing, and not aiming to kill. Crazy bastards. Redneck would be pissed to the nines when he saw the damage.

As the thing's hand came close to her foot, Tria cursed and stomped hard on it. It broke off easily and Tria kicked the hand away. Disgusting body parts were not her favorite objects.

"Bob. Will you please tell those idiots to look where they're shooting?" Tria shouted and edged away from the zombie.

"I said don't shoot the chick!" Bob's voice suddenly took on force and depth and projected across the room, sounding uncannily like his old drill sergeant.

Didn't she keep a gun under the bar? Or maybe that was Redneck. Somebody ought to keep a gun under the bar, Bob thought, bemused. Tria had the best chance of actually hitting the zombie, if only she had a weapon within reach! Inspiration dawned and he drew Martha again, turning the revolver handle-first and sliding it down the bar to Tria.

Tria heard the sound of metal against wood and saw Martha. Thank God, she thought. Tria reached over and clasped her fingers onto the butt.

"Go to hell, you fuck." Tria aimed at the big yellow M on the zombies head. Bam...bam...bam..She fired three consecutive shots and let out a big breath. That should stop it.

Glancing at Bob, she smiled. He was the only with a brain in here, obviously. "Thanks, Bob. You're a life saver, darlin'."

"Thank Martha," Bob said modestly. Now that the danger seemed to be past, he retrieved his bottle and took a small sip, trying to make the drink last longer.

Tria might need a minute to recover from her ordeal before returning to her bartending duties.

He swiveled his bar stool and glanced back at the milling crowd of bikers. Something wasn't right.

"Oh no, man, that is not cool..."

Tria took small breaths, and blinked. She licked her lips and gave the dead zombie a kick. Feeling satisfied, she smoothed her hair and picked up the bags on the ground.

Tria would not be zombie chow today. Or any other day at all if she could help it. She set Martha down on the bar, next to Bob.

Hearing Bob's words, she turned to the crowd. "What?"

Bob glanced back at Tria, then turned and pointed wordlessly to one of the bikers. The man was sprawled on the floor, mostly hidden behind the crowd. Clearly the zombie hadn't been the only one hit by a bullet or two.

Unsure of what else to do, Bob tipped his head back and drained the bottle.

Tria glanced at the small crowd gathering beside the nearest table. Bob was right, it appeared a bullet had somehow ricocheted into the man. "Oh shit...I think it's Redneck."

Pushing through the bikers, Tria shoved a particularly burly man aside and grimaced. The bullet had indeed hit Redneck, in the shoulder. He was pissed as hell, and swearing like the proud sailor he once was. Blood was soaking the red flannel shirt he wore, and staining the floor.

The crowd parted to let Tria through and Bob got a glimpse of the owner. The amount of blood running down the man's arm and puddling on the floor was alarming.

"The dude needs a doctor." He offered his opinion from the bar stool as he stuffed Martha back in her holster yet again. Bob didn't see any reason to rush over and join the crowd milling around Redneck. None of them were doing the bar owner a damn bit of good.

Tria frowned and put her arm around her neck. "It's...not so bad. All he needs are a few stitches, I'm sure." Tria was lying, and they all knew it. There was no way just a few stitches would be good enough. Redneck needed professional help, doctors, nurses, paramedics. The bullet needed to be taken out, at least.

This was bad, what if the wound got infected? "We need to get him some help."

"Man, we gotta get him over to the jail," Bob said slowly, clearly reluctant to make the suggestion.

The Compton County lock-up was the last place Bob wanted to go back to, but the alternative was to stand by and watch Redneck bleed to death. He stood and met Tria's worried gaze.

"I mean, it ain't like we can call nine-one-one," he added, apologetic.

Tria licked her lips, Bob was right. The lock-up had medical supplies, and if she remembered correctly, a paramedic. "You're right, darlin'. Come on, let's get goin' before he losses more blood."

"Move over, dumbos." Tria tried to clear a path towards the entrance. With another bikers help, she helped Redneck up into a sitting position. "Does anyone know how to make a tourniquet?"

Bob's brow furrowed in worry. None of them had the medical training to help Redneck, he was sure of that. They couldn't waste time. He grabbed a stack of bar towels and pushed them into Tria's hands. The cloths were barely more than rags, but they were dry and absorbent and they looked reasonably clean.

"Hold that over the wound. Apply pressure. Come on, man, get his legs!" The last was directed at the biker Tria had recruited to help move Redneck. Bob wrapped his arms clumsily around the wounded man's waist, trying to stay out of Tria's way so she could tend to the bullet wound. It was awkward but somehow they got him up off the floor.

He'd been drifting in a fog of depression since before the weird zombie scene had gone down all over the U S of A. Now, finally, something had jolted Bob out of his blue funk. Maybe it was seeing someone even worse off than he was, or maybe it was just time for his mood to take an upswing.

"Let's get him into one of the cars," Bob said, all hesitation gone now.

Tria accepted the wad of towels, and tried to stop the blood. She didn't know when they had been cleaned last, but it didn't matter at the moment. Tria dabbed at Redneck's bloody wound and tried to tie the two ends of a towel around his shoulder. The bundle looked awkward, and bulky. There was no other alternative, and fashion was not sometime you cared about when serious injury occured.

As Bob and the biker lifted Redneck up, Tria strod--ran--to the door and held the doors open. As an afterthought, she glanced back at the bar. They would need some guns if they were to go to the lock-up. Those things out there would smell the blood and flock towards them in a second. Martha wouldn't be sufficient to deal with a hord of them. "Wait, I'll go get my gun and some bullets."

Tria didn't want to go into the basement now, not when she didn't even know if there were anymore zombies in there. So she took her gun, and grabbed the rifle that hung on the wall.

"Good idea. Let the pigs know we mean business."

Bob wasn't worried about the zombies. He was thinking ahead to when they arrived at the jail. The local police didn't have nearly as much control as they'd once enjoyed, proof being how they'd had to resort to releasing Bob and most of the rest of the inmates from the prison. That didn't mean the pigs wouldn't try something sneaky if they thought they could get away with it! It was best to show up looking heavily armed and dangerous. Everyone knew cops were just bullies in uniform.

These paranoid thoughts didn't slow Bob down any. He and the other biker got Redneck stuffed into the back seat of an old Ford. Bob was relieved to see that the keys were dangling from the ignition.

"You want to ride shotgun, sugar, or drive?"

Tria shoved her gun into the waistband of her black shorts, and let the rifle dangle from its strap around her shoulder. Despite the weather, a bead of perspiration ran down her forehead. Tria wiped it away and frowned.

"I'll drive, I think." Tria wasn't sure that she was good enough at shooting moving objects, if the car was going to be speeding. Better let the two bikers handle any trouble that might suffice. And yes, she intended to break every fucking rule to get to the lock-up. She was not going to let Redneck die on them. She rather liked him, in a platonic way.

Tria got into the Ford, slammed the door and revved up the engine. The dashboard lighted up and showed a full tank of gas. It appeared that luck existed after all.

Redneck wasn't living up to his name; underneath the grime the man's skin was fishbelly white. Bob clambered into the back seat and laid a heavy hand on the makeshift bandage that was already starting to soak through with blood. The other biker--Bob thought his name might be Pete, but wasn't sure--hopped in the front, ready to blast away at any uncool zombie obstacles.

And off they went, ruining a few stray zombies' hopes for a quick meal as Tria left them in the dust.

"Waaaahoooo!"

Maybe his shout of good cheer was inappropriate to the situation, but Bob had always loved a good road trip.

Speed was a necessity, and Tria fully understood the need for it; which was why instead of staying within the speed limit, she was gunning at a not-so-modest 80 miles per hour. Red lights--the ones that where wrking--might as well didn't exist, no one living or dead was obeying them anyway.

Tria mentally assessed the nearest route to the lock-up, disregarding the one way/no entry signs. She didn't think anyone in the Ford would even care about the way she drove. Hell, they were all bikers and appreciated a fast ride.

"Hold on, there's a big curve up front."

Bob just leaned harder against Redneck, clamping the bar towel bandage tighter against the man's shoulder. He felt optimistic that the bleeding had stopped or at least slowed.

"Hang in there, man."

The waitress was driving fast enough that by the time any zombies got a whiff of the blood, they were already a quarter mile away. Bob would have to compliment her on her driving skills. Later. Right now they were pulling up to the jail.

"Never thought I'd be coming back here. Not without handcuffs on," he remarked to no one in particular.

Tria, ever the paranoid person, pocketed the keys. If some random looter wanted it, they’d at least have to know some hot-wiring. Tria got out of the Ford and looked around. There were no zombies in close proximity, thank God. She still had shivers whenever she recalled her first encounter with those things.

Staring ahead at the tall metal fence that surrounded the place, Tria could understand Bob’s reluctance towards entering the establishment. She didn’t want to be in there, either, suddenly experiencing claustrophobia. “Come on, Redneck needs help, and help is in there.”

((end until next thread where paramedics enter the scene?))
