//------------------------------// // My shield isn't mental // Story: Student Jehsa Kor Ann // by Gallants //------------------------------// Shield ran down the halls, trying every door none would open, she could hear the slapping of the decaying corpses and the rattle of chains behind her, their voices repeating, "You did this to us, face what you've done for crown and country," they choked out, the now dark blood falling from their mouths. Tears streamed down the unicorns face as she found a door that opened, ducking in and locking it behind her, she was met with a series of pictures, pictures of her life, taking a tentative step forward she saw her older sister when they were just foals in school playing O&O, a smile crossed Shields face, she walked through admiring the pictures of her life, before she came to the one that changed everything, her sisters graduation from the Guard Academy. The beasts rammed their bodies against the door, "Come out officer," they said in unison as Shield moved deeper into the room of memories, soon she stopped and looked closer at another one, her first kill, a drowning, a mob boss she had wrapped him in the chains of his anchor and thrown him overboard of his own yacht. She had intended to arrest him, but he was physically stronger than her and her only hope was to kill him, either way she was congratulated for a job well done. She moved deeper looking at all the pictures of the creatures she had killed, remembering why she killed them, terrorists, international serial killers, rapists, mobsters and mob bosses, all threw the first strike. The door splintered as it was broken down, turning around Shield steadied herself and rushed the zombies, they had deserved it, and she was just doing her job.
