Till DEATH Do Us Part!

At A hotel in Calus, the sound of a door could be heard opening in one of the rooms. The figure that walked into the room was Jabo. As he entered the room which belonged to Gordon, he saw Gordon and James sitting in front of theTV. As Jabo looked at the TV, he saw that James was watching the music video for "Muzik" by Knocturnal. He looked over at Gordon, who was currently reading a Punisher comic book.

"Hey G!" said Jabo, getting Gordons attention. "Where'd you get the Punisher comic?"

"Found it, with a bunch of other issues in the Hummer." said Gordon.

"Well.." said Jabo

"I know," said Gordon "those are your Punisher comics. I will remember to ask next time I decide to read them." Gordon placed the comic down, and looked at Jabo. "So, you gonna do it?" asked Gordon.

"Yeah," said Jabo "after our dinner tonight!"

"What are you gonna do?" asked James

"Don't worry about it!" said Gordon

"Jeez," said James as he went back to watching tv. "You guys can be real assholes sometimes!"

"Love you too!" said Jabo, with a sarcastic tone in his voice. Jabo made his way out of Gordons room, and walked over to Lauras room. After making sure Laura was ready, Jabo and Laura went out to dinner.

As Jabo and Laura made their way to their table. They passed a table that had 2 girls and a guy, they all looked about 19. As Jabo and Laura walked past them, Jabo was listening as they were talking about various things and laughing. As Jabo and Laura passed in front of the table,

they heard one of the girls two times say "ping." Jabo and Laura gave each other a look of confusion, as they sat down at their table and ordered their food.

***

Their dinner almost completely done, Laura noticed that Jabo seemed preoccupied.

"Jabo?" said Laura

"Yeah?!" said Jabo

"Something wrong?" asked Laura

"No," said Jabo "Why?"

"It's just," said Laura "you seem preoccupied. What's on your mind?"

"Well it's.." said Jabo, as he pulled out a small box and got on one knee. "Laura, will you marry me?" Jabo opened the box to reveal two rings. Both rings were in the shape of a skull, in the eye sockets were two rubies.

"Oh my god!" said Laura. She was about to say something, when they heard the sound of the three nineteen year olds "oohing."

"Just a second!" said Jabo, as he stood up and walked over to their table. Laura watched as the Jabo was speaking to the three teenagers. She watched as Jabo pulled the SIG P-228 from his shoulder holster. A look of shock showed up on the teens faces, as they put their money on the table, and ran out of the restaurant. Jabo walked back over to Laura, who was laughing at what she saw. Jabo got to the table, and sat down in his seat.

"Yes Jabo," said Laura "I will!" A smile came across Jabos face, as he pulled Laura close to him, and their lips locked.

***

"Me And My Girlfriend" by Makaveli came blaring from the speakers, as the Hummer drove down the road.

"So where the hell are we going?" asked James

"To the next city," said Gordon "wherever the hell it is!"

"Why?" asked James.

"Like Jabo and Laura told us yesterday." said Gordon. "Jabo proposed to Laura, they decided they'd get married as soon as they found like a church or wedding chapel. There wasn't one in Calus, so hopefully there will be one in this next place."

"Oh!" said James, as the Hummer drove down the road, the view of a city in the distance.

On a rooftop in the city of Cagy, a man sat with a gunner in front of him. As he looked into the distance, he saw the Hummer heading towards Cagy.

"Outsiders coming!" the man said into a walkie-talkie. "Orders?"

"Alert the other gunners!" said a voice in the walkie-talkie. "Then shoot to kill!"

As the Hummer entered the city, they began to hear gunfire. As Jabo looked at the Hummer, he saw that it was quickly filling up with bullet holes. As he looked around, he saw gunners on the rooftops. Jabo looked at the group, then gave them a signal. The group proceeded to pull out

their weapons, and began firing. As Jabo continued through the city, he watched as the group shot and killed the gunners on the rooftops, causing them to fall like bloody raindrops. Knowing that the Hummer couldn't take anymore shots, Jabo pulled it over and the group got out. Just as

they got out, another shot hit the Hummer, causing an explosion, knocking the group to the ground. As they got up, they found that they were still being fired upon. Jabo pulled out a Sterling SMG, and began firing. Laura meanwhile, knowing a handgun wouldn't hit the guys on the

rooftops, grabbed Jabo's M16 and began firing. As Gordon fired rounds from his shotgun, the shots caused large holes in the assailants chests before falling off the roof. Pulling out a liquor he had, James proceeded to make a Molotov cocktail. He threw it at a rooftop, which had two gunners on it. James watched as they became engulfed in flames, before falling off the roof. Jabo looked over at a doorway to see an old looking priest. The priest motioned to Jabo, Jabo signaled the group, and they followed him over to the priest. Using this opportunity to rest, the group

reloaded their weapons as Jabo talked to the priest.

"You must not be in this city," said the priest "it is not safe!"

"Yeah, big fucking surprise!" said James, as he pulled out his handgun, and pointed it at the priest. "Look, you better fucking tell us what's going on! And don't think I won't pistol whip a priest, because I've done it before!"

"Woah!" said Jabo, as he placed his hand on the barrel of James handgun, causing him to lower it. "There will be no pistol whipping priests today, the activity today is to stay alive." Jabo looked over at the priest "Now, can you tell us what happened here?"

"Well," said the priest, as he let out a sigh "it all happened a few months ago. I was finishing up one of my Sunday services, when I heard noises outside. Before we had a chance to see what the source of the noise was, men in military uniforms came in. Noone had a chance to say

anything before these men began shooting everyone. I could do nothing but watch, as people I've seen for years die right before my eyes. One of the shots hit me in the leg, causing me to fall. They must have assumed I was dead, because after killing everyone in the church, they left. As

I slowly made my way outside, I saw that there were more then just those people. As I looked outside, I saw people being killed in the streets, buildings burned, it was terrible! Now this militia has total control of the city, there might be more citizens alive, but as far as I know,

I'm the only one!"

"Holy Shit!" said Gordon

"If I weren't a priest," said the priest "those would be my exact words!"

"Well," said Jabo, as he looked over at Laura. "Looks like we have to hold off on the wedding!"

"Until the militia's gone," said Laura as she loaded up her handguns. "Then you're mine!"

Weapons fully loaded, the group slowly made their way back to the streets. They got onto the streets to find them empty.

"What the fuck's this?" said James "First these motherfuckers are trying to blast the hell out of us, then they go and disappear?!" A shot was heard, and James fell to the ground clutching his shoulder. James moved his hand to reveal that he had been shot. James looked up to see one of

the militia members in a window. "Motherfucker!" said James as he fired from his handgun. The shots hitting the militia member, until the top half of his body hung out the window. James looked over at Gordon and smiled. Gordon was about to say something, when he heard machine gun fire go off around him. Gordon looked down the street to see a militia member firing a machine gun at him. All of a sudden, several militia members were coming down the street. Gordon quickly pulled out his shotgun, and blasted a hole into the man with the machine gun. Gordon heard someone come up behind him. He placed his left hand on the barrel of the shotgun, and pushed down on the barrel. After the shotgun moved full circle, Gordons left hand was on the trigger. He

pulled the trigger close range, causing blood to spray on him, as the man fell into a pool of his own blood. Laura meanwhile was killing militia members left and right with head shots. As she smiled over her accomplishment, a shot was heard. Laura fell to the ground, she looked down to see she had been shot in the leg.

"YOU SON OF A BITCH!" yelled Laura, as she found the person who shot her. With one gun already in hand, she pulled another one out of her leg holster and began firing. She watched as the persons body convulsed with each shot, finally falling into a puddle of blood. Laura looked

around to find Jabo, she couldn't find him, but saw soldiers that looked like they had been killed using Jabo's MO. Laura felt the barrel of a gun against her temples, she looked up

to see a female militia member.

"Don't speak!" said the female militia member."You say anything, and I will blow your fucking brains out." As Laura looked up, she saw a hand holding a combat knife come up behind the woman. As the blade was slit across the womans throat, the blood spilled out of her neck onto Lauras face. She felt someone wiping the blood off her face, she opened her eyes to see Jabo holding a bloody combat knife.

"Miss me?" asked Jabo, as he helped Laura to her feet.

"Very funny!" said Laura "In the future, work on your timing!"

"My, My!" said Jabo "Not even married yet, and you're already nagging me out!" Laura aimed her gun at Jabo and smiled.

"Should we had spousal homicide to it too?" asked Laura.

"Just kidding!" laughed Jabo nervously. Jabo looked around, and saw that the militia members that came at them this time were all dead. As they began to walk away, a shot was heard. It skimmed past Jabos ear, causing him to turn around. He saw a half dead militia member holding up a handgun. Jabo looked over at a hardware store, and saw a gas can. He picked it up, and found it was full. He smiled as he walked over to the militia member. He proceeded to pour gasoline on the militia member, he then walked backwards pouring gas as he went along, until he got to the group.

"What are you doing?" asked James

"All will be answered in a minute!" said Jabo, as he looked over at James. "Lighter?" James pulled out his Zippo, and handed it to Jabo.

"What do you think you're doing?" asked the militia member weakly.

"This!" said Jabo as he flicked the Zippo, and brought it close to the gas. "How about a little fire Scarecrow?"

Jabo ignited the gas, the trail of fire leading to the militia member. The group stood and watched, as the man screamed as his body burned.

"Jabo?" said Gordon

"Yeah?" said Jabo

"If I may make a comment." said Gordon, as he pointed at the burning body. "Even for you, something like that was fucking sick!"

"Oh!" said Jabo "Thank you!" As the group walked away from the burning body, figures were seen in the shadows.

"These people are crazy!" said one of the figures.

"They've gotta be some kind of killing machines," said another figure. "Look how many they've taken out so far!"

"What should we do?" asked a third figure.

"The leader said when it came to the big battle, he wanted to come out!" said the first figure.

"And?" said the second figure

"Well," said the first figure "I think now's the time!"

The first figure proceeded to get on the walkie-talkie, to contact the leader.

***

"I think we wiped out the militia!" said James, as the group walked down the streets.

"Why do you say that?" asked Laura.

"Well have you seen any more of those fuckers lately?" asked James

"Well, no!" said Laura

"My point exactly!" said James. All of a sudden, the rumble of an engine could be heard. The group stood weapons ready, as they saw several militia members walking on all sides of an armoured vehicle. On the top of the vehicle, the top half of a man could be seen, in front of him was a large gun.

"Jesus Christ!" said Jabo "These fuckers are persistent!" The group watched as the man held up his hand, causing the militia members to stop moving.

"Oh you've got to be kidding me!" said the man in the armored car. "Do you mean to tell me, half my militia was whiped out by three guys and a woman?!"

"Yes sir!" said one of the militia members. The man in the armored car pulled out a handgun, and shot the militia member. "I didn't tell you to speak!"

"Look," said Jabo "enought of this shit! Who the hell are you?"

"My name is not important," said the man "seeing as you are going to die, you need only know that I am the leader of this militia."

"Well," said James as he loaded up his handguns "it's a good day to die!" Jabo, Laura, and Gordon looked over at James. "What?" said James "I always wanted to say that!"

Signaling, the militia leader commanded his troops to begin attack. The militia leader watched as he sent his troops in, only to see them get mowed down in a hail of bullets. As he sent in the next wave of militia members, he saw Gordon running towards a nearby bar.

"Get that one," said the leader "I want his carcass brought to me!" As Gordon made it to the counter, a shot hit him in the shoulder, causing him to go over the counter. Finding no movement, a small group of the militia headed over to the bar. Just as they got to the doors, a Molotov cocktail came flying through the air, hitting one of them directly. As the other members tried to put him out, more came flying, hitting the other militia members. As Gordon stood up from behind the counter, shoulder bleeding he walked out with a few more cocktails.

***

The militia leader watched as the group walked up to him. Throughout the city, militia members laid dead.

"It's over!" said Jabo

"Far from it!" said the militia member, as he stepped out of the armored vehicle. "I see how you do with guns, but how are you at hand to hand?"

"Well," said Jabo as he took off his trenchcoat, and detached the holders which held his weapons. "You wanna find out, it's your funeral!" As Jabo walked up to the leader, he made a quick punch hitting Jabo in the face. "Oh!" said Jabo "You wanna play it that way!" Jabo began hitting the leader with a multi-punch combination. The leader went to throw a punch, Jabo caught it with his hand. Jabo brought the leaders arm down on his knee, causing the militia leader to

yell out in pain. As the militia leader ran at Jabo, Jabo quickly brought his knee up, and pushed it into the militia leaders stomach, causing him to throw up. After being thrown to the ground, the militia leader pulled out a knife. He ran quickly up to Jabo, and stabbed the knife into Jabos stomach.

"You motherfucker!" said Jabo, as he fell to the ground clutching his stomach. As the militia leader stood over Jabo, knife above his head, Jabo began to laugh.

"What's so fucking funny?" demanded the militia leader.

"That!" said Jabo, as he pointed behind the militia leader. The leader turned around to see Gordon sitting in the armoured vehicle, the gunner aimed at the leader.

"Oh shit!" said the leader.

"My words exactly!" said Gordon, as he opened fire. The group watched as the militia leaders body moved left and right, as each shot went into him. This kept going until finally, his body fell to the ground in a large pool of blood.

"For a leader," said James "he wasn't very smart!"

"Yeah," said Laura "he was so obsessed with killing us, he forgot he had this, which probably would have killed us!"

"Speaking of death and killing," said Gordon, still sitting in the armoured vehicle. "Aren't you two forgetting something?"

***

Inside what was left of the church, a priest, and injured bride and groom, and injured best men, were finishing off a wedding ceremony.

"I now pronounce you man and wife," said the priest

"you may kiss the bride!" Jabo and Lauras lips locked, and after a few minutes didn't look like they were parting. The priest walked over to James and Gordon.

"I must thank you again!" said the priest

"It was no problem," said Gordon "so what are you going to do?"

"Well," said the priest "I'm gonna try to find another town, hopefully a second chance at being a priest!"

"Well best of luck with that!" said Gordon, as he shook the priests hand. They looked over at Jabo and Laura, who's lips were still locked together.

"Are they always like this?" asked the priest.

"More then you know," said James with a perverse smile on his face. "More then you know!"
