Zombies

Chapter 1

As I was eating breakfast, Mum and Dad came over all excited for Addison's cheer tryouts. I didn't mind it because it meant that she got all the attention and I could go out and do my own thing. Perks of being the younger twin. The only problem was that they had more strict rules for me.

My sister and I walked to school together and met up with our cousin Bucky on the way, he's the cheer captain. Yeah, my family is really big on cheer. We approached the front of the school and I could see the zombies on the other side of the gate. They kinda look cool, I mean besides the eating brains part. But not everything needs to be perfect. Just like art.

One zombie catches my eye. Bucky gets a bit close to the fence and the zombie's friend scares him, he freaks out in his own 'Bucky' way, and not gonna lie I did flinch a little, but I also had to try not to laugh. Yeah I like my cousin, I mean he's family, but sometimes he's a bit much, and watching him get scared or annoyed is kinda funny.

Everyone else starts heading inside but I wanna see how this plays out. The zombie that I first saw tries to get his friend to be nice, they are being very careful. They actually seem.. normal. They're nothing like what I've been told.

I quickly walk inside so that I don't look too weird and run to catch up to my twin and cousin. "They tried to eat our Grandfather" Bucky states and I make my way next to them, it seems like I just walked in on awkward silence. "It was only a small bite.." Addison replies. I don't know how she always has that positive attitude but it's one of my favourite things about her. Bucky ignores her and announces that the cheer tryouts are today. I quickly wish my sister luck before leaving. I really hope she gets in.

I make my way towards the basement for some time to myself to sketch but get ushered back upstairs since the basement is now the zombie's classroom, guess I missed that memo. As I'm walking around the hall to find a new spot, the Z-Alarm goes off and everybody comes rushing from all directions. I spot a zombie safe room a little further down and so I make my way over.
