RUNAWAY

Chapter 8 - Its TOO Early for This

(Y/n)POV

After the unfortunate event most of us, including me, needed a break and decided to call it a night.

I was peaceful asleep when I heard a loud crash I open my eyes to see Thomas yelling, "Come on we have to leave now!"
Definitely not how I wanted to wake up today.

I mutter a few words that I'm not allowed to repeat. "What the hell! Its way to early for this " I yelled as I began to get up. I don't have a watch but Im pretty sure no one would ever consider this morning.

"Come on we got go!" Thomas said again while practically dragging me with the others away. I pull my hand out from his, "I can handle myself ". He seemed proud of my ability to work under pressure, unlike the rest of the group.

"Some better have died for you to wake me up like this," I hear Minho say behind me. He obviously isn't a morning person.

"No ones died yet, but someone might soon!" Thomas said as he looked up. I followed his gaze and noticed a storm up ahead. A lightning storm.

And It was close

We began to get up but once we saw the lightning we sped up. It's couldn't be more than a mile away. Within seconds we were running. We headed to the buildings Minho was talking about before. They were closer than we thought. I heard a snap behind me and then a scream, someone got hit.

I turned to see who it was, but I didn't know him. I was happy because that meant Minho, Newt, Thomas, and Teresa were ok, but I felt bad because I never got to know the kid.

Lost in thought, I slowed down. I saw a flash of light above my head and I knew what was coming. I closed my eyes and prepared for the shock, but I got a face full of sand instead, someone pushed me out of the way.

I turned around and saw Minho on the ground. He screamed in pain and then passed out. I ran over to try to help him. Newt and Thomas beat me to it and the two of them were carrying Minho into the building.

.........

They set him on the floor and I ran to his side. I was trying to ignore the voice in my head telling me he was dead, not many people can survive a lightning strike. I checked his breathing, it was slow but it was there.

"Is he going to be ok?" I heard Newt ask. I turned to look at him and his eyes shining, he looked like he was going to cry.

"He's alive and that's enough for now." Newt smiled and I looked back at Minho. He was still, dead still. I checked his breathing and his heat beat and both were gone. I was beginning to cry and so were others once the noticed the abnormal stillness.

I wasn't about to give up. I vaguely remember something my got her thought me about how to revive someone. CPR and mouth to mouth. I immediately started chest compressions.

"What are you doing?" Newt asked, his tears spilt over as he saw his lifeless friend.

"Saving his life!" I answered, I was too busy counting to go into too much detail.

28, 29, 30, Chest compressions done. I pinch Minho's nose and tilt his head back for two breaths. After that I go back to 30 chest compressions. And then two more breaths. By the third round of doing mouth to mouth I was about to give up until I heard a big gasp.

"Next time you do that I'd better be awake," Minho gasped. I jumped On him and have him the biggest hug I could. I didn't realize how much I cared about him until he almost died. Same with the rest of the group, I wouldn't want to live without them.

Thomas and Newt joined out hug, and within a minute we were having our second group hug in the last 24 hours. Only this time it's was for a survival instead of a death.

"What happened anyway?" Minho asked. I laughed a little bit at his question. Everyone pulled out of the hug.

"You were struck by lightning, shuck-face!" I told him he smiled at my response

"Hey, your using our words!" He said while smiling some more.

"I figured the way Newt acted with you swearing, I stop talking with my words." I said as I looked over to Newt, he gave me an agreeing nod.

We all laughed for a while until a kid in the back spoke up, "does anyone else smell that?"

The adrenaline of saving my friends life took up most of my attention so I didn't have time to take in my surroundings. But now that I did I smelt what the kids was talking about. It was death or a decaying body. There was also a sound, like a chained up animal.

"Hey! I found a light switch." I heard Thomas yell.

"Turn it on" I head Newt yell. I almost wish he didn't because as soon as I could see better, I was face to face with the zombie people, "We're surrounded by Cranks," Newt stated the obvious.

"No shit!" I said, I'll apologize for swearing later if we make it. I closed my eyes waiting for the attack, but it never came. I looked to see what and it was because the cranks were chained up. And we were just out of their reach.

I heard walking across the room, and I looked to see who was there. It was a girl who was around our age, and she was pretty.

"I've see you met our guard dogs." She said while looking at us, "come with me" she said as she turned away.

We all stayed still. I'm pretty sure we were all a bit suspicious of her, and I wasn't ready to follower her just yet.

She turned to look at us, "unless you want to stay here with them?" This got us moving. Screw suspiciousness, anything is better than them.
