The answer the Doctor received for his request to parlay was an arrow that tore a hole straight through his handkerchief. "Figures they wouldn't answer to reason!" Margaret refused to take her eyes off her targets, save for the times needed to dodge the arrows that came flying her way. "At this point it's just a matter of taking them down!"
And take them down they did, as the combined efforts of the group knocked the zombies down within minutes. The deck started to look rather grimy thanks to all the zombie remains, but at least everything remained still. That is, until...
BOOM
A loud beat on the drums cut through the eerie silence, and the head zombie laughed wickedly.
"Hahaha! Is that all ye got?!"
BOOM
"That was just the first wave, scalleywags!"
BOOM
BOOM
BOOM
The drumming on deck grew louder and faster, until it reached a steady rhythm. As it did so, blue electricity sparked off the zombie remains, making them shake and jolt. They started to move closer together as the head zombie began to sing.
You think they are all dead
But it's all in your head
The zombies never left
They're just a bit faded
There's no way you could win
They're on a mission to sin
They're the rocking dead
Shaking the jaded
Ooh, you never got it, the hair metal mayhem!
Ooh, I've heard the tons of bullshit you talk!
Now let's see you walk!
Now this is heavy metal!
No matter what you say!
Now this this heavy metal!
The only righteous way!
The drums continued to beat harshly, the zombies beginning to piece themselves back together with the electricity serving as supernatural stitches to hold them together. Margaret attempted to cut them down before they could reconnect, but sparks caught on her weapon and sent the assassin flying to the ground.
The horseman they come
They swing their axes like guns
Apocalypse is neon and spandex!
The ones that you mock
The deliver audio shock
In the old-school hard rock vortex!
Ooh, you never got it, the hair metal mayhem!
Ooh, I've heard the tons of bullshit you talk!
Now let's see you walk!
Now this is heavy metal!
No matter what you say!
Now this this heavy metal!
The only righteous way!
As zombies returned to form, a chorus of them began to chant alongside the macabre melody. Reclaiming their axes and spears, they began to swing at those on deck.
HEAVY METAL!
HEAVY METAL!
HEAVY METAL!
HEAVY METAL!
"Find the one with the gold, boys! Master won't let us leave without him!"
"Get out of here!" Hitoya ducked from a mace-weilding zombie, trying to swing at ut with his bat.
"Just keep fighting!"
Meanwhile, below deck Neko would find Rin grabbing a microphone.
"I know how to rap from my shows! I bet if those guys can use these things, so can I!" Indeed, there seemed to be more than enough microphones for anyone without weapons wanting to fight.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I'm saving that girl!"
"Girl? What girl?!" Mima asked. It was clear she wasn't budging.
"Didn't you hear her singing earlier? Maybe there's a girl on their ship and we can help her!"
Back on deck, no matter what was done, zombies would keep regenerating, unable to stay down.
"Ha! Worn out yet?! We can do this until the end of time, until each and every one of you is part of me crew!!"
Now this is heavy metal! (HEAVY METAL!)
No matter what you say! (HEAVY METAL!)
Now this this heavy metal! (HEAVY METAL!)
The only righteous way!
Now this is heavy metal!
No matter what you say!
Now this this heavy metal!
The only righteous way!
HEY!
Now this is heavy metal!
No matter what you say! NO!
Now this this heavy metal!
The only righteous way!
NOW THIS IS HEAVY METAL!
The song ended, but the fight kept going, and the drums kept pounding. Getting worn down, Hitoya grunted as a shield attack knocked him into the wall. "Shit...there's gotta be something...how can they keep coming?!"
