Part 30: horses

—

I rested my head on his shoulder, tired. All I wanted was to be in bed, with him. Just the two of us, alone in a room, together.

We heard them before we saw them,
None of us but in their conversation. Although her brother did speak to us when he arrived with his people.

"I'm not doing this for you." He said.

"Good, do it for yourself." I spoke.

He nodded. "And for my father."
Whatever floats his boat.

"Now we don't have many horses to spare so you'll have to make pairs." The lady announced.

Murphy and Cassandra, Mack and Addi, doc and Warren and myself and 10k.

—

I haven't ridden a horse in like, forever.
The ride was bumpy and uncomfortable.
We swayed back and forth as the horse trotted along the path, into the city.

10k pulled his sniper from his shoulder,
"Wait!" The woman shouted, "You'll spook him."

10k took the hint, slinging it back over his shoulder and grabbing his slingshot instead.

"5,426, 5,427." He counted as he shot two Z's.

"Wow, that many already."

"Mhmm."

He was behind me on the horse, I took the reins, he wrapped his arms around me tightly once again.
It made me feel safe. Even in a world like this.

"So what exactly is your plan?" I asked,

"I'm his daughter, he'll listen. He has to."
She responded.

"Sure."

—

The only sound was of Cassandra's loud obnoxious coughing. And Murphy's whining, as per usual.

Next thing we knew, Cassandra was on the floor.

"What the hell you idiot!?" Warren called.

"I didn't push her, she fell!"
He threw his hands up in defense.

"Why didn't you catch her?" Doc asked,

"Leave me alone!" Murphy whined.

"What's wrong with her?" The brother asked,

"We don't know." 10k joined the conversation.

The brother jumped off the horse to examine her, Cassandra laid on the floor unconscious, her shoulders exposed now with the jacket falling down.

"SHE'S INFECTED!" He yelled,
"SHE'S BEEN BITTEN."
