Surviving The Zaunt

"Wake up..."

"Wake up maggot" a rough voice commands. "Mnmn..." I open my eyes and I realize I am no longer in the abandoned house, I am some kind of cellar. "I said Wake Up!" he screams. I stand up as quickly as I can, he shoves and grabs me by the arm. He pulls up the flight of stairs, and when we get to the top I can see a dark colored man with some wicked grey eyes. "Sit her down" he tells the man holding me,he slams he against a seat until I comply. "What do you want from me?" I ask. "We don't want anything, you see we just want to talk" he says. "If you wanted to talk we would have talked already, now what do you want?" I ask again. "Ok here's the deal, we want the cure. And you're gonna give it to us" he says crossing his arms. "How can I give you the cure, I can barely keep myself alive" I say. "Well let me refrase that, its not you exactly who's gonna give it. Its your genetics. We need someone who is immune to The Zaunt so we can run tests on them." He says matter- of- factly. "Please don't hurt me..." I whimper. "Oh don't worry, we will only make you suffer until you die" he says mocking me. "Untie her" he tells the man behind me. As the man unties me I can see a chance if escape, the man had a gun on his pocket and the other one was still on his chair so I went for it. I kicked the man as hard as I could in his you-know-whats, reached for the gun and sprinted for the door. Luckily the front door was unlocked, I left them either in shock or in insane pain.

When I reached a safe distance I realized I still hadn't eaten, I looked around and all I could could see were dead trees and forgotten buildings.this!I could find that house I've been in, I bet there was some food in there... Maybe even water. As if by magic, in the distance I could see that same house I've been in earlier. I ran and ran until I reached it. I meant to take out my sword but it wasn't there, those bitches must have taken it away from me. The only thing I had was a dam gun, what was I supposed to do with this?! I couldn't kill any Zaunted with this! But then I remembered, I had a knife in my boot for emergencies. Dam it! I'm so stupid sometimes. I opened the house's door and checked if there was anyone or anything, but nothing. I guess those guys only wanted me. I went for the kitchen, and opened tyeone of the cabinets and there it was... What I have been waiting for days now to get: food. A nice can or 2 of beans, and that was more than enough. I ate the first one in 5 quick gulps, and the second one I saves for later. I went on and opened the next cabinet and like as if left on purpose, there it was three bottles of water. I once again gulped it down quickly. And the other two I saved for later. I was looking at the bottle's label and I notices something strange. There label said :
"For when the time comes"
