Later during the Middle of the Night
It was the middle of the night. Snarles and munching could be heard. With so much noise coming from the opposite of Carlos's bed it was only a matter of time before he asked his parents what on earth they were doing. As he opened his eyes and turned his body to there direction. The sight alone made his blood turn cold. Juan, Carlos's father was eating and muching on the guts and organs of Rosa. He gasped in horror but just as quickly put his hand over his mouth to keep himself from screaming. While Juan was eating guts. Carlos saw Rosa turn her head towards him with a scared complexion over her face. Every time she tried to say something nothing but short gasps came out from her mouth. The sight made Carlos's whole body tremble and made his body turn a little to strongly that he fell off his bed next to the nightstand. As I reached for the pistol inside the nightstand desk. Carlos's fingers kept trembling and kept fumbling with putting bullets into the magazine. The sound of something falling paused Carlos's actions entirely. It was Juan falling off his side of the bed and looking straight at Carlos with his blood covered mouth and his hands full of Rosas guts. After a couple of seconds he managed to finished filling up the magazine and then pointed the pistol right at the direction his father who was standing up. His slow movements and lifeless eyes caught Carlos off guard. It's almost like there's no more life in Juans eyes. After a couple of breaths Carlos pointed the pistol towards Juan and put his right finger over the trigger and mustered as much courage before pulling the trigger. The bullet went straight to Juans heart and made him stumble a bit before walking again
"What on earth? Just what in the absolute fuck is going on? Papa"?
The only response Carlos got from his father was nothing more more snarled and a look of hunger and death. Right when Carlos was going to shoot Juan started walking in slow stumbling motion towards Carlos. Shot after shot kept shooting. Chest, heart, lungs, face. It wasn't until Carlos shot Juan in the middle of the head was when Juan finally collapsed and all signs of motion stopped. Carlos collapsed aswell from the things he did and saw and that brief instance. Nothing but unadulterated fear and sadness showed all over his face. Just then Carlos heard gasps of pain coming from his mother Rosa again and this time she was moving her hands and gestured him to come towards her. Carlos obeyed and slowly but surely made it towards Rosa. With enough strength Rosa was finally able to say what she wanted to say to Carlos
"C-Carlito. My baby boy. I-I'm sorry if me and your father have ever done anything to fail you. I just wanted to tell you that I love you and that we will always watch out for you even if we are o longer with you".
Carlos then finally cried. He cried and cried until he looked back up to his mother who was slowly losing her breath which became weaker over time. Carlos then looked inside his pistol and saw that he had two bullets left from within the pistol and looked right back and Rosa with a sad expression. The next words that came out from Rosa's mouth made Carlos eyes tremble even more.
"Sh-shoot me. . .Please hijo. . . Don't let me suffer anymore pain that I already am. Just promise me. th-that you will live. As a mother that's all I ask of you. No parent should die before there children. P-please promise me that you will live on. For me. . .Your father. . .and for yourself as well.
Carlos nodded to himself and stood up with the pistol at hand. He shakenly pointed the pistol towards Rosas head. The sight of the gun made Rosas face turn into a face as if she was finally at peace. Seeing how Carlos was still shaking and tearing up. Rosa looked at the tattoo Carlos got and gave a few words to comfort him.
"Sabes hijo. I was studying a little bit about that tatto of yours. I-I learned that in Japanese culture a snake means symbolizes protection, transformation, and wisdom. I hope that snake protect you to keep on living. Transform you into a person I could be poud of and wisdom to make sure you don't make anymore dumb decisions and not take the shot. Please hijo. . .take the shot".
Carlos hearing this Cried even more that his head started hurting from trying to keep it down to himself. Rosa then closed her eyes and steadied herself to whats coming. Carlos again pointed the pistol on Rosas head but because he saw that he was still shaking and even more now because of what Rosa said. Carlos adjusted the pistil on contact with Rosas forehead. After what felt like an eternity to Carlos. He pulled the trigger and killed his own mother. With a scrounged up face full of pain and agony from the emotional rollacouster of killing both his parents. Carlos let all his emotions out and wailed so hard the whole world could hear his pain and suffering.
A couple of minutes later. Carlos stopped crying and stood up getting ready to head outside the motel and maybe find clues to what exactly happened with him and his family. but seconds later Carlos felt a small tremor. . .then another. . .and another. . . Until this next one shook Carlos so hard he fell down to floor with a hard thud. Carlos then moved the curtains from the window and what he saw both confused him and shocked him. All over the city buildings and streets alike where getting blown into an infernal hell whole.
"Madre de dios. What the fuck is the government doing." Carlos said and disbelief.
Carlos looked up in the sky from within the room. A figure small and dark was coming towards the Motel Carlos was in and it was getting bigger. . .bigger . . . And bigger. . . . Until that small figure landed close the motel and exploded on impact. When the explosion erupted it flung Carlos from across the room. And at mid air just as Carlos hit the wall and went unconscious. He finally remembered what that hospital was from. What he saw with his Grandpa. . . The hospital. . . His father. . .His mother. . .it was nothing more then the walking dead.
