&quot;I _said_, I need more bullets!&quot; &quot;Calm down, Stella. I have a gun, too, you know. Here are some more bullets.&quot; Stella stepped over one of her most recent victims and addressed Delilah as she reloaded her gun. &quot;They don't call me Stella _Payne_ for nothin', girl. These zombies are about to learn some serious pain! But first we need to find Winston.&quot; Stella marched purposely towards his favorite beef patty stand where she knew he would be hiding. The coward. Should've known better than to date a man young enough to be her son. She found him cowering behind the counter, the remains of patties strewn on the floor around him. &quot;Winston Shakespeare! Get out of there! You should be _protecting_ us, not sitting here cramming beef patties in your mouth!&quot; Winston complied, albeit a little shakily. &quot;A-Are they gone?&quot; Delilah looked around for any leftover patties and said, &quot;Yeah they're gone. For now.&quot; Stella pushed them both outside. &quot;Let's go. If we're going to survive, we need to find a way off this island.&quot; 2008-03-15T15:36:11Z http://ficlets.com/feed/story/24558 <p>Quick and funny, which is impressive since you&#8217;ve set this piece during a lull in the action.<br />LoA</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/24558?basename=48680 2008-03-15T15:36:11Z THX 0477 http://ficlets.com/authors/thx_0477 <p>So this is how Stella got her groove back!</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/24558?basename=48537 2008-03-14T23:17:41Z thebetweenspace http://ficlets.com/authors/thebetweenspace <p>Very funny!
