A Zombie Survival Series (Book 1): Infestation Iowa by Nathan A. Smith

and imploded heads as the slow crawl of zombies got closer and more massive. As he fired, Eric and Jane ran down the stairs; Jane in her underwear and Eric missing his shirt and trying to pull his pants up.
                  “What’s going on?” Eric asked confused, “Is there more?” He finally pulled his pants all the way up and buckled them in place as Jane covered herself with her hands. She started to go back upstairs but paused and said.
                  “You said we won? Victory sex is so- Over!” she then stormed up the stairs to find her clothes. The others stared at Eric with their heads lowered.
                  “What?” Eric said turning to go back upstairs to find the rest of his own clothes. Destiny and David chuckled and both looked out the peep hole as Holiday fired his shotgun wildly.
                  “I’m Destiny.” She said in between the sound of gun shots. Smiling, David looked at her amused by her name.
                  “David,” He nodded out the peep hole towards Holiday, “And that is our sheriff Holiday.” Destiny’s smile grew wider as Holiday screamed profanity at the zombies who were falling almost faster than they could count. “He has been through a lot today.” David said,
                  “Everyone has been,” Destiny replied her smile fading. “Did you know Bartley? The guy who owned this place?”
                  “Ya, since I was a kid.”
                  “We lost him last night, he went out to help-” Destiny tried to continue but went silent.
                  “Ya that would be Bartley!” David said proudly. They moved back as Holiday pushed the door open breathing very quickly. He turned around and held the door closed as zombies from outside banged against it. Eric and Jane ran back down the stairs this time fully dressed. Destiny and David lunged themselves beside Holiday and held the door.
                  “Eric! Grab the hammer!” Destiny screamed. Eric looked around, his eyes searching wildly for the hammer but he could not see it. Everything had been moved around since David and Holiday came in. Weapons were all over the table and floor and no longer on the rack.
                  “Where is it?” He screamed as he kicked away some guns in front of him with his feet. He got on his hands and knees and began sweeping with his hands frantically looking for the hammer.
                  “Here it is!” Jane screamed as she ran to the table by the chair. It sat under another shotgun. She grabbed the hammer and pulled it out fast. The shotgun fell to the ground and fired off a massive burst of pellets hitting Holiday and Destiny in the leg. Holiday fell forward screaming in pain. Destiny looked at her leg, she was barely hit but it still stung. She shook it off and pressed against the door harder than ever.
                  “Sheriff!” David screamed as he bent down, still up against the door as it pulsed with the bangs from outside. Holiday rolled around slightly as he held his leg. Blood squirted out everywhere from his lower leg. Jane held the hammer tightly in front of her chest horrified.
                  “Oh My God! I am so sorry!” She yelled nearly crying as always. Eric got to his feet and rushed over to her. He grabbed the hammer out of her hand and grabbed a pail filled with nails from behind the table. Then Eric started pounding nails into the frame of the door, securing it with the boards already on the door.
                  “That should hold it!” he shouted. David and Destiny moved away from the door watching it. It continued shaking but seemed to be holding strong. They bent down to Holiday; David held his shoulders as Destiny pried Holiday’s hand off his leg to get a better look. As she did even more blood gushed out. She released his hand and he clasped
