Darkness Awaits!

We Meet Again?

The trucks engine screamed at the road. The truck felt old, and I kind of liked it. I seen a couple of "them" I'm referring to the zombies. There weren't much. Maybe I saw five while I entered the mysterious city. I liked being alone, and I feared that the bandits would catch up to me. They had assault rifles, and were geared up. I had a rifle, and a truck. Somehow I felt like I had enough to survive. I drove out of the city on to a more rural area. I came across a small town. I was driving, and the truck starting making weird noises. Just then the truck stopped in its tracks, and would no longer accelerate forward. I was a little scared, but I got out of the truck, and went to the back. I went through the supplies, and found a better bag. I found a better gun, and a lot of ammunition. I started taking it all. There were at least ten water bottles. I packed it all up, and started walking. I came across a house with blood on the door. I could make out the words in English. "God saved us" I kept walking afraid to look back. Eventually it became dark, and I went into a nice house that looked undisturbed. I went in the front door, and the house was empty. There was a little furniture, but other than that no people, zombies, or lights. I took a red lighter out of the bag, and lit a piece of paper on fire. I put in other papers in this little pit. I kept the fire going for a while. I put papers laying around the house. I put another piece, and just then I heard screaming outside.
"HELP ME HELP IS ANYONE HERE?" A man screamed as he ran down the street. I cautiously approached the window. I moved the curtains, and seen a middle-aged man running. Behind the man were the filthy bandits! I moved the curtains a little more, and the man running made eye contact with me. He started turning towards the house I was in. I went into a panic attack, and time seemed to slow down. I grabbed all of my supplies, and slipped out of the back door. I walked a little bit in the gated backyard. I seen some overgrown shrubs, and set my stuff down. I took a bat I found on the ground, and approached the back door again. Gun shots fired loudly. I jumped at the sound, and slid the door open right as the man opened the front door.
"Let's go!" I said quickly, and turned around. I went over to the shrubs, and he followed. We laid down in the shrubs hidden from sight. They were still on the street, and haven't entered the house, so I got up, and walked over to the fence I busted the planks to make it seem like we escaped that way. I quickly jumped back down next to the man I just saved. Just then flashlights shined aimlessly around the backyard.
"They escaped through the fence! We track them down, and when we get them...." A man called out to his peers. "They" the word stuck in my mind. How did they know I am with this guy? I didn't like what was going on. I drifted into a deep sleep next to a random person.........
