Shovels In Spades

"Di-Did you do all this?" Sarah asked with a shaky voice. She was currently staring at the vast amount of zombie corpses while she tried to keep what little food was in her stomach from exiting her throat. The sight and smell weren't pleasant in the least, both Ger and Ellie would attest to that.

"No, they fell and died on their own," Daz said sarcastically while he clambered over the gates to his base. Upon reaching the top, he opened his mouth once more, "I already told you I killed over two hundred Zombies, and what do you see here? A bunch of dead Zombies. Don't ask the obvious."

Sarah was a bit shocked by Daz's reply. Now that she took a second to think about it, he was right, but he didn't have to be so mean about it.

"Don't give me that look. Ask something stupid, and I'll treat you like a stupid person. Now hurry up, you three, get over the gate and settle in, go to sleep, browse the shop or whatever, I've got a tight schedule for the immediate future," Daz said in an impatient manner before he took Lyle out of Rimmy's extended arms and jumped over to the other side of the gate, away from the sight of Ger's group. Rimmy quickly climbed over the gate himself and entered the base too.

"He he." A light chuckle escaped Ellie's lips. Sarah spun around and stared at her menacingly.

"Tch, laugh at me again, and I'll punch you, four-eyes," Sarah said to her still giggling twin sister, obviously not in full seriousness as she loved her far too much actually to hurt her.

"He he, twit's soor ewn fult fir been sooped," Ellie replied in an almost inaudible manner. Ger's eyes trembled a little upon hearing his beloved daughter speaking. She rarely ever spoke due to the fact that she was actually deaf which resulted in her gaining a terrible speech impediment that she was heavily bullied for in primary and high school, college and even day-to-day life. Ellie only ever spoke if she felt very comfortable and relaxed.

'It's your own fault for being stupid?' Sarah took a moment to digest what Ellie had said before she formulated a response. "I don't care, laugh at me again, and you'll be blind on top of being deaf!" Sarah said with a smile that only Ellie could see. Sarah was looking right at her sister because she relied on lip-reading to understand people. Ellie smiled back and chuckled again.

"Okay, girls, that's enough. Let's get over this gate; we can't leave Mr Middleton over there all by himself, now can we?" Ger said to the twins. They both laughed and nodded. Thankfully, with the help of Ger, the two had no trouble getting over the eight-foot-tall gate.
