*Hey readers so it has been a couple months since The apocalypse began. The picture is what Zane looks like.Thanks for reading.*

"Ugh" is all I said walking down the street. I couldn't still believe this is happening. I just wanted to wake up and life be normal again. It has been about 4 months since this whole world collapsed. I have been staying in this old house. Of course it had to be in the woods, but I was okay with it. I had met this little boy. I found out he was alone so I took him in. His name is Zane Topper. I don't know what day it is, but if his birthday did past he is now 6.

I have been teaching him how to read and do math. Yes, I still believe that kids should be educated even when the world has got out of hand. In return for making him learn I take him out and teach him how to kill and hunt. That's what he is the most excited for.

Anyways I got back to the old house with wood boards on the left side started to give out. I walked in to get bare hugged by Zane. " Mommy you are home" he said in the most cute and happy voice ever. Did I mention he calls me his mom. It's super cute. " Hi sweetie did you finish your math so, I can go take you hunting" I said while he is still hugging me. " Yes mommy some nice man helped me with it" He said. I froze, I was just standing there in shock. " Honey is the nice man still here?" I questioned still in complete shock. " yes mommy he is in my room" Is all he said. " Okay mommy's going to meet this man please stay right here and if mommy tells you to run do it okay" I said while pulling an old pistol that I found in a supply run out of my back pocket. " Okay mommy" he said in a calm voice.

I walked down the hall checking every door until I got to Zane's room. I slowly opened it and pointed the gun straight at the supposedly nice man. " Whoa there I am not gonna hurt you" the man said in a surprised look. "What's your name" he said. " Jazzy now what do you want" I said still not lowering my gun. I know your thinking isn't your name Luna. Yea, it is but I changed it to jazzy so no one knows my real name. " okay put the gun down my name is Daryl. Now I want you and your boy to come back to our camp with me" he said in a calm and collective voice.

" I just have to ask you a couple questions" he spoke. " how many walkers have you killed". I put my gun down and stated " 213 and Zane has killed 12". " okay how many people have you killed" he said looking surprised that I have killed so many. " 4 I have killed four people" I said starting to get worried again. He looked calm still and just said " Why?" I stayed standing completely still and said " They tried to hurt Zane so I killed them". He looked kinda scared

He managed to keep his cool and said " Are you Zane's mom?" I was surprised by this and quickly said " No, his parents turned and were trying to bit him when I found him". He looked still a little scared still but said "Okay". Just then, Zane came in the room and hugged me and said " Mommy I am hungry. Can the man stay to have dinner with us?" I nodded my head and said " Sure honey if he wants to." Daryl gave a smile and nodded. We went out into the kitchen and had some squirrels that I had caught today.

Daryl then said to Zane " Okay buddy go pack up your things we are going somewhere" Zane looked trilled as he went to pack. I started packing everything we had. " Are you good with that bow" Daryl said with a smile. I finished packing and said " Yeah, I have gotten pretty good with it. Nice bow by the way". He gave me a nod as Zane came out. He led us to a car as we put our bags in the back and climbed in. I sat in the front with Zane on my lap. As he slowly fell asleep we started driving.
