Stranded and Scared // The Dead Apocalypse

Chapter 17

(This chapter gonna be interesting?)

It had been about an hour or two.

"Not much, but it should last a few days." Niki said.

"Hey look." I said, holding up an object.

Niki sighed. "Of course you'd find yourself a hat."

"We should take any weapons that are still here. Like kitchen knives." I suggested, shrugging.

"Maybe not all of them." She replied.

The moment we got outside the house, we heard many snarls and growls.

"Holy- Get to the car!" I said.

There was a ton of mobs out on the streets.

"Why are they out, now!?" Niki said.

"Come on!" I said.

Suddenly I heard Niki's small scream. I turned around to see her pushing back a mob who grabbed her.

"Niki!" I rushed back and shoved the mob off her, stabbing its head.

"The map!" Niki said. She dropped the map into the mobs.

"Just go! We can't get it!" I brought her in front of me and towards the car.

The mobs were covering up the map. Yeah, no way we're getting that back anytime soon.

"We need it to find L'Manberg!" Niki said.

We were basically surrounded by mobs. Holy shit, where did they even come from?

"Wilbur!" Niki yelled.

We got separated into different parts, with mobs in between us.

"Go, go! Don't worry about me!" I told her.

I ran towards an opening and pushed mobs out of my way, running for my life. I turned my head and saw Niki get into the car.

"Oh, my god, oh my god." Niki looked in the review mirror.

She couldn't tell if they got me.

"Ah!" Some mobs slammed their heads and hands onto the car.

She quickly started the engine, backing up the car, and then driving forward, soon leaving the town.

"I'm sorry, Wilbur. I have to.." Niki muttered. "I hope you're okay."

She left me behind.

I was running down the street on where Niki's car went. me.

I looked behind me and saw nothing.

Did I lose them..? I thought.

Not even a snarl or growl was heard. Just nature noises and my footsteps.

Whatever. I can't stop I need to keep running. But I don't even know where I'm going..

I was on the edge.

It was hard not to panic.

"Niki!" I called. "Niki!!"

I was breathing so heavy.

"Niki!"

There was nothing to be heard as I crouched down onto one knee.
