Savannah was the first awake. She awoke around five in the morning. This was typical for her. Everybody was still sound asleep so Savannah tried to lay back down and fall asleep but kept waking up by the sound of what they so call zombies outside the school.
"Savannah?" Sophia whispered. "Yeah?" Savannah whispered back. "Can't sleep either can you?" She said. "No, those things outside are loud. Are you sure you trust this place? It seems to guarded. There's bound to be something bad to happen." Savannah said in a concerned voice.
"It will be fine. Like you said its to guarded. If they try to get in, our people will protect us. It's not like these people want us dead. I mean if they did they would've killed us by now wouldn't of they? There's to many of us, we can survive this at least for a few days." Sophia said.

Cole's head shot up and said "What do you mean a 'few' days?" His voice was loud.  "You don't really think we are going to stay here long do you?" Sophia said. Savannah and Cole looked at each other. "Well.." Cole mumbled under his breath. "What if I had planned to sta-"
the sound of a gun shot cut him off.

Silence

Everybody was sitting up now and a few standing. "Come on you filthy bastards! I have plenty of bullets for you guys!" A man yelled in a constant tone. "Who is that?" I whispered to Scarlett. "I've never heard his voice before. Maybe somebody we haven't met yet." She responed.

We all sat there for a moment in silence. The doors opened fast. A boy came in. He was tall and had blueish hair. Cody ran in. "Jessie, what the hell? You're going to attract them from miles. You know how fast they can ran." He looked around to see if people were okay. " What else could I do? There were to many. It was either that or die." Jessie said. "Fine but next try to do it without being so loud. You did have a knife with you didn't you? You could've killed a few with that instead." Cody said. Jessie cursed under his breath while walking off. "Who is that guy..?" Cole had said. We all looked and shook our heads.
The sunlight shined in through the windows. The creatures were all around the windows now. "Hey Cole?

Remember how you asked if we needed help? Well.. We could use some now." Cody said with a tone unlike any other he has used. "Oh yeah. What is it?" Cole said. "Well what Jessie did the morning attracted zombies from miles. There's many out there and we need some help. We have armor in the teacher lounge. Mind to help us?" Cody asked.

Cole looked at us. I thought I was a bad idea but I told him he should help. He went on while the four of us ate breakfast. We had toast and some eggs. I didn't eat much for some reason.
I zoned out and was looking out the window at the creatures the were there. "You agree with us Emalea?" Sophia had said. "Huh? Oh um.. Sorry I zoned out. What's going on?" I replied. "We were talking about how long we were going to stay here. We thought about a few weeks. What do you think?" Scarlett said.
I wasn't sure what I wanted at this moment. "I think we should stay here until shit goes down. These people are.. Kind. We probably won't met many people like this in the future." I said. When we got done eating we headed back to the gym. Some more people were in there now we had never seen. "Emalea?! Emalea is it really you?!" I turned around and a boy about my age was in front of me. He had brown eyes and light brown hair. He touched my shoulder.

"Oh my god I thought you were dead! I was at school when this outbreak happened. I'm not sure where your mom and my mom is. Cody had found me on the road. I thought I was heading towards our house but turns out I was totally wrong." He said. I stared. Confused on what he meant by "our" house. "Um.. Who.. Who are you?" I said.
The grin slowly went off his face. "I'm Matthew. You know, your uncle..?" He said in a frightened voice. "I.. Uh.. I lost my memory awhile back. I'm sorry but I don't remember you." I said in a low voice. "No. This can't be. The only family member I have left doesn't even remember me." He was holding his head and shaking it. "This isn't real. I'm still asleep.. I'll wake up in my bed!" He was yelling st this point. "The only person I really know doesn't remember the times we had. Wha-... What's the point of living?!" He yelled. Cody ran in, he had new clothes on now. He was wearing a Mario shirt. "Matthew, what's going on?" Cody said.
