Dark Exorcist 2 (Dark Exorcist Series) (8 page)

“Yeah I got a problem. I don’t know you or your little skank here and I didn’t invite you to this party. So how about you do your job here and mind your fuckin’ business and we’ll all be good.”

“Hey!” Dale said. “No need for that Skip, I told you he was cool man. Let’s just do our thing and hit the road. This place is weirdin’ my shit out.”

“Good idea.” Skip said and lowered his gun.

Dale walked over and tried the door which swung open.

“Shit ain’t even locked,” he said.

“Be careful. Who knows who might be in there?”

“It’s all dark. Come on. Let’s go clean this place out.”

Skip stood by while Cody, Asia and the other three goons who looked like Cody followed behind. Skip walked in last, letting the door swing shut behind him. The store was dark, but there were huge TV’s mounted on the walls and computers up on stands throughout the store. Dale was already toward the center at the counter busting open the registers.

“Why you think they left the door unlocked?” Dale asked.

“I don’t know. Maybe they left in a hurry,” Skip said. He watched as Cody, Asia and their crew began hauling TV’s out to the truck. Dale pried a drawer open and started stuffing cash into a bag.

“Dude, there’s a few thousand dollars here.”

“Good, get all of it.”

One of Cody’s guys came walking back inside. Skip didn’t know his name and didn’t care.

“I’m gonna go look in back. Maybe there’s a safe or stuff back there.” He said. Skip just nodded as he grabbed several laptops. As he headed out to the truck, there was a scream from the back room.

“What the fuck was that?” Skip asked. “One of Cody’s guys went back there.”

Dale turned from the register as Skip sat down the laptops, drew his gun and headed to the back. When the door swung open, Dale fell to the ground and threw up. Skip stood trying to figure out what exactly he was seeing. There were several people who looked insane on top of Cody’s guy. He was lying on his stomach reaching out to Skip. His eyes were almost coming out of his head as he screamed.

Several of the crazies had ripped off some of his clothes and were gnawing at his legs, and one was tugging on his arm as if it was trying to rip it off. There was an older man on top of him humping away at his ass. All of them were covered in blood and looked and acted like wild animals. One of them looked at Skip.

“You! Hey you! Fuck you! Hahahahaha!”

“W
hat the fuck do we do?” Laura asked. “The whole damn town is possessed.”

“I see that,” Dietrich said.

“Is Simon doing this? Is he controlling them?” Sharon asked.

“Yes and no. Whatever is controlling Simon is controlling all of these people,” Dietrich explained.

The sound of a siren came from down the street. Dietrich looked out the window and saw a police car with its lights and siren on, flying down the street, plowing over each of the afflicted. Bodies flew in the air as some disappeared beneath the car. Derrick ran outside waving his arms. The car slowed down and pulled to a stop on the sidewalk. Two DPS officers stepped out.

“You folks better get out of town. These afflicted are all over!” one of them shouted.

“Weren’t you guys watching the perimeter?” Derrick asked.

“There is no perimeter. They shredded the other officers and a bunch are headed into San Antonio.”

“Where are you guys going?”

“Dallas. I would too if I were you.” They got back into the car and sped off.

“Well, to protect and serve I guess,” Laura said. “Looks like you’re it.” She nodded to Derrick.

“I’m it what?”

“You’re the whole police department.”

“Wonderful.”

“So what’s the plan, Chief?” Laura asked.

“Fuck if I know. Fighting demons isn’t exactly in our job description.”

“We all have to do it,” Amanda said. “You guys fight them from here. I’ll have to enter Purgatory to get to Simon and Yeshto’th.”

“What will you do when you find him?” Dietrich asked.

“I don’t know yet. I’ve never actually fought one in Purgatory.”

“But to do that, your body will remain here. You’ll be vulnerable.”

“We’re all vulnerable now anyway.”

“Why would they be going into the city?” Laura asked.

“Yeshto’th is all about mayhem. His whole purpose is to spread it. A small town like this isn’t enough for him. He’s looking to expand.”

“Expand what?”

“Hell on Earth.”

“Isn’t that what K’rall was trying to do to me?” Amanda said.

“Yes. It seems to be a common thread among all of them. They are like a force of nature. Locusts go through and annihilate everything in their path and move on. These afflicted don’t seem much different,” Dietrich explained.

All of them jumped at pounding at the door. In the window there was a hideous, misshapen face looking at them.

“Peekaboo! I see you! Hahahahaha!” It squealed. “Come out and play!”

“Jesus Christ!” Laura yelled as she jumped back. The thing began pounding on the door as they moved back into one of the other rooms.

“Come out! Come out! Wherever you are! We don’t wanna hurt ya! We just wanna fuck you in the ass! Hahahaha!”

Dietrich led them to the back of the house and out the back door. For the moment, none of the afflicted had come into the back yard. Dietrich and the group ran into the yard and each climbed the fence into another yard. Sharon had trouble climbing over, but Bernard helped her. They crossed through the yard into an alley which seemed quiet.

“Where we going?” Derrick asked.

“Away from here,” Dietrich said. They ran down the alley, which had almost no lighting at all. Dietrich stopped suddenly. There was a set of glowing eyes just ahead of them.

“Holy shit,” Derrick said. “Is that one of them?”

“I think so.” Dietrich said. “Don’t move.”

The thing stepped out from the shadows. It was a man, but he was hissing and snarling. Unlike some of the others, his jaw was elongated, making his snarl look more animal than human.

“We just want to see Simon,” Dietrich said. “He’s given us safe passage.”

“Safe passage has been revoked. You’re all meat!” The thing squealed. Dietrich took a step forward, and the thing lunged. Dietrich got out of the way, but Bernard was standing behind him. The thing knocked Bernard to the ground and tore his head off as if it were paper Mache. Sharon screamed as the thing punted Bernard’s head like a football, and then began smearing Bernard’s blood all over itself. Laura took off running as the rest followed her.

The thing took off after them. They turned left out of the alley and onto another street. The thing wasn’t even trying to catch them. It ran behind them, mocking them as it skipped along.

“Run, run, run just as fast as you can! Can’t catch me, I’m the gingerbread man! Hahahaha! Bring those cunts back here! I’m gonna fuck those cunts in the face!” It screamed.

As they ran, dozens of glowing eyes appeared up ahead. They stopped in their tracks as several more of the afflicted came toward them, yelling something their pursuer stopped as well.

“Oh looky there! Nowhere left to go! Hahaha!” He howled, just as his head exploded.

A flatbed truck had driven up behind them. Dietrich never heard the gunshot, until the second one was fired into the crowd, hitting another of the afflicted

A couple guys and a girl were in in the back of the truck, and the bald man in the back yelled “Come on! Get on!” Sharon climbed up, and the rest of them piled on. Once they were all on, the bald guy pounded on the roof of the cab and the truck sped right into the crowd. Bodies bounced off the truck as it plowed through.

“Thanks for helping us out,” Dietrich said. He was still catching his breath, and haven’t even processed Bernard’s death. That would have to wait. “I’m Dietrich. This is Laura, Derrick, Amanda and Sharon.”

“Hey guys. I’m Cody. We just happened to be in town.”

C
ody was with a couple of other guys, and a girl.

“You guys from town?” Dietrich asked.

“Nah. We’re from San Antonio. I guess Skip has family here, so we came to check it out.”

“Who’s Skip?”

“Oh, he’s in the passenger seat. He kind of runs things,” Cody said.

Dietrich nodded. Looking around the back of the flatbed, he saw there were stacks of TVs, computers and other electronics. Chances are they weren’t in town to see anyone’s family. They were there stealing crap. Great. They just got rescued by a bunch of looters. Dietrich also noticed the shotgun in Cody’s hands, as well as each of them having guns in their waistbands. He just hoped they hadn’t just run into something worse than those afflicted.

They drove for a bit until they reached the police station. The place was dark and deserted.

“Come on. We’re gonna load up on their guns here,” Cody said as he jumped out.

“Where is all the police?” Sharon asked.

“I’m it.” Derrick said. “The rest have either left town or are dead or are one of those afflicted.”

“Can’t they bring in the National Guard or something?” She asked.

“I have no clue lady. You know as much as I do,” Derrick said as he jumped out of the truck. Two other men got out of the truck. One was a large man with long hair and a beard.

“How ya doin’? I’m Skip. Hope you all are okay,.” he said.

“We’re fine. Thanks for bailing us out of there.”

“No sweat, man. This is crazy shit. The news in town said there was rioting and looting.”
Yeah. You’re the ones doing the looting.
Derrick thought.

“Really? How strange,” Dietrich said.

“Exactly. Let’s head on in. We were here earlier. It’s pretty secure,” Skip said as they walked inside. They filed in through the main lobby, then through a set of thick double doors. Once the doors closed behind them, Skip turned around.

“Ok. Now!” He said as each of his men struck Derrick and Dietrich while the others grabbed the three girls. Dietrich was taken by surprise and tried to resist, but he was not a fighter, and the guy just flung him to the ground like a ragdoll. Derrick pulled his gun, but the girl already had hers out and stuck it to his temple and pulled the trigger. The women screamed as the thugs held them down. Someone was stomping on the back of Dietrich’s head. The blows made him lightheaded but he didn’t pass out. He pretended to hoping they’d stop and it worked.

“Okay, let’s get them in back,” Skip said.

Dietrich felt someone dragging him by the ankles as the girls continued to scream. After a few minutes they stopped. He opened one eye, and saw they were in a locker room. Someone forced his hands behind his back and handcuffed them. He opened both eyes and looked up to see Skip standing over him.

“Okay, bud. Here’s the deal. Sorry about your cop pal back there, but he should have known he didn’t stand a chance. Now you got three fine looking ladies over there. We’re just gonna have a little fun with them. You play it cool, and all of you can walk out of here. You try to be a hero, and I will cut their fucking pussies out and make you wear them as a hat. You got it?” Skip said.

Dietrich just nodded as he looked over at the girls. Amanda seemed unusually calm. Sharon was freaking out while Laura looked like they had knocked most the fight out of her.

“All right, strip ‘em and get them in the shower,” Skip ordered as the men all began cutting the girls’ clothes off. They dragged Laura into the shower and turned on the cold water. She jumped and screamed as the water hit her skin. The other guy with Skip named Dale had a fistful of her hair as he pulled his pants down while fondling her pussy with his fat, sausage fingers. She tried to struggle against him, but he punched her. For such a big oafish man, he seemed to have quite the manual dexterity where sexual assault was concerned.

“Bitch, you don’t want to fight me. Hold still and you might like this shit,” he said as he bent her over and jammed his dick into her. She tried to hold still, but he was clearly hurting her. Dale pulled on her hair, bending her neck way back as he continued thrusting. The whole thing only lasted a couple minutes, though Dietrich was sure it felt longer to Laura. He struggled against his cuffs, but he couldn’t move. They had them on so tight, his fingers were falling asleep.

Once Dale finished, he backhanded Laura sending her toppling to the floor. She just lay there sobbing as Skip and the other guys applauded.

“Good show! Good show! Looks like I’m next! I like mom over here. She’s got the whole MILF thing going on,” Skip said.

“No! Please no! Please?” She cried.

“Oh it’s okay. I’m not gonna hurt ya.”

“Just let me go. Please?”

“Okay. I lied, I am gonna hurt ya. A lot. I’m not as gentle as Dale.” Skip said as he shoved her into the shower. She slid across the wet tile and smacked her face into the wall. Blood ran from her nose as she staggered to her feet. Skip walked in and tripped her, sending her back onto her face.

“Stay down, bitch,” he said, as he undid his pants and dropped them. He rolled her onto her back as he entered her. As he began fucking, he also started punching. It was a bizarre display. He fucked her while ground-and-pounding her like an MMA fighter. Dietrich had to look away. As he looked over to Amanda, he saw they’d stripped her to her underwear. She was sitting on a bench, with one of the men holding her arms, but she wasn’t resisting or screaming. She had her eyes closed.

S
kip beat on the woman until his arms were sore. He got his nut about the same time she stopped breathing. Sometimes they died before he could nut inside them, but this one he timed perfectly. That was always the best. Once they were dead, it wasn’t as much fun with them just lying there. It still felt pretty good as long, as they were warm. The other girl just lie there while the older guy screamed. The teenager was next. He was sure Cody would want a piece of her, or his girlfriend would.

“Leave them alone!” The Dietrich guy yelled. At least Skip had been able to tune him out. Nothing more annoying than trying to get your nut with some dude screaming in the background.

“Will you shut the fuck up?” Skip finally yelled back. The guy piped down for a moment. For some reason the young one was just sitting there with her eyes closed, probably praying or some shit. “Okay, who’s up next?” Skip asked.
