Fear the living

The beginning of everything

Honey please be careful," my mom said.
"Why what's wrong?" I asked.
"The news says there are some people that have turned mean or something there aren't many details." My mom said.
"Okay mom I promise," I said. She nodded. I walked out of my house and headed to school. That was the last time I saw my mom. I never knew what lay ahead of me was going to be so deadly. Now I understood why my mom told me to be careful...
A week later
I rummaged through the bag of food I managed to find in an abandoned house. I grabbed a granola bar and unwrapped it. As I was about to take a bite there was a loud crash. I looked up and immediately knew I was in trouble. I ran out the back door of the house and looked back. I saw a group of zombies(as I call them)
"Oh crap" I whispered. They were sensitive to noise so I didn't want to be too loud. I tripped and fell on a fallen branch and as I tried to get up, the zombies got closer and closer. Suddenly, two figures stepped out of the house and ran towards me. I screamed in fright. Someone covered my mouth. Then the two people who were running towards me came into view. The one had a baseball bat and he swung it at the zombies. The other used his gun and shot the others. I breathed a sigh of relief and then turned to see who the other person was. He looked about my age with dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. His hair was short and messy. He was wearing ripped black jeans and a gray shirt. The others were about my age too and one had short, messy hair too. But his was black. He was wearing a blue and black jacket with matching pants. The other boy had black jeans and a black shirt. His hair was short and neater. And he had brown eyes and brown hair. He was wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt. I looked at them. The one held his hand out.
"Thanks," I said.
"No problem. How are you alive? You have no weapons" he said. He handed me a handgun. I gladly took it.
"I don't know, I hid most of the time I guess" I shrugged.
"I'm Levi," the one with the dirty blonde hair said.
"I'm Jay," the one with the black shirt and black pants said.
"And I'm Ethan," the one with the baseball bat said.
"I'm Kylie," I said. I stood up. I was wearing short shorts and a T-shirt. The clothes I was wearing when I left for school when the morning started.
"How are you not cold?" Jay said.
"I don't know I'm used to it, I don't have anything else to wear," I said
"Here I have an extra sweatshirt," Ethan said. I wasn't gonna be rude so I took it and put it on.
"Summer might have an extra pair of pants," Levi said.
"Um who's summer?" I asked.
"She's part of our group of survivors," Ethan said.
"Oh," I said. I followed them to a building with a huge gate in the front. As we're about to enter, a huge group of zombies appeared. I used my gun and shot at them. Levi tried to get the gate open and wasn't having any luck. I ran at it and rammed into it. It opened with a loud creak. We ran inside and slammed the gate shut.
"What is this place?" I asked.
"An abandoned indoor zoo" Jay said.
"Oh," I said. I looked around.
"That gate isn't gonna hold them forever! Let's go" Ethan said. We ran inside and barricaded the door.
