The Apocalypse: Bitten

Near Death Nick

I was frustrated to have to team up with those I didn't know but Savannah and her friends seemed to trust these people, we went along breaking down about halfway through our journey, "Nick! Grab a weapon and help stand guard man." Clay yelled, not a hint of aggression in his voice, he seemed like the leading type, I did as he said taking a weapon and standing guard, we took out any draggers which neared our location, I almost got bit many times but put down the dragger in the nick of time. Before I knew it they had fixed the ATVs and just as I turned to get on the vehicle a dragger grabbed my leg, I saw my life flash before my eyes as it reached it rotting mouth near my leg to sink its teeth in my flesh, just as I realized what I had to lose, memories of Savannah smiling and being happy fluttered through my mind. I had a hope to see that smile once more, I reached back my fist, swung it down hard upon the skull of the dragger, stunning the creature just long enough to grab my Taurus and blow it brains out. Hopping on the ATV the others kept calling me "Near Death Nick" until we arrived.
