The Beginning Of Us

10.

"So what's the game plan?" Quinn asks, them now in a restaurant type building.

Bill sighs, "Since Joel needs a car so badly, we're going to a nearby high school. There's a military car crashed into the side of the school and if I can get the engine maybe and only maybe I might be able to start a car up for you."

Quinn freezes, her eyes widening slightly.

"Something wrong, Quinn?" Parker questions, giving Joel a nervous look.

"That Uhm..those guys that were driving the truck..Me and a gang of Fireflies killed them. The school isn't the best idea..there's Infected everywhere."

"God damn.."

"Speaking of you being a Firefly we are gonna have that serious chat now." Joel says, walking out of the main room. Quinn follows after him.

"Wait Quinn was a Firefly?" Bill looks over at Parker.

"Catch up on the fucking drama old man." Parker growls, Vivian and Ellie bursting out in silent laughter. Bill rolls his eyes and sighs.

"Take whatever you need but hurry up, the faster we get this over with the better." The group loots the restaurant area and Quinn walks back into the room, A stern look on her face and Joel standing behind her.

Parker walks over to Quinn and Joel walks over to Bill.

"What'd he talk to you about?" Parker asks Quinn quietly.

"Nothing he just.." Quinn sighs, "It's nothing..don't worry about it."

Parker gives Quinn a worried look. "If you ever wanna talk about it, I'm here alright?"

She nods and hugs him tightly. He smiles softly and hugs her back.

"Now let's go!" He ruffles her hair and she chases after him, the two laughing.

~Small Time Skip~

"Alright," Bill whispers, all of them out of breath, "That's the school and there's the car. We can sneak past the Infected if we're careful enough so just..watch your back." The group carefully sneak down to the school, weapons drawn and loaded.

"Stalkers." Quinn says under her breath to the group. "I count..Five Stalkers..Six Runners..Two to three Clickers outside. God knows how many on the inside." She loads her gun.

"Wait." Parker says softly. "Vivian, Hand me that brick." Vivian hands Parker and Parker throws it. The Infected run over to the noise and Parker pulls a Nail bomb he stole from Bill and throws it in the center of the Infected.

They all cover their ears quickly and hide behind a bus. The nail bomb explodes, Killing all the Infected in the area.

"Well..that's one way.." They all run into the school grounds and towards the car. More screams and clicking fill the area and Joel tries to open a door.

"Bill what are we gonna do!?" Parker yells, the Infected getting closer.

"Over here!" Ellie calls out, opening a window. They all climb in and shut the window quickly.

"Bill that's not gonna hold!" Joel says, Pointing his gun at the window.

"Give me a god damn minute, Joel!" Bill opens the hood of the large car and pauses.

"There's no engine." He slams the hood back down.

"WHAT?!" Parker, Quinn, and Vivian yell at the same time.

"SOMEONE HAD THE SAME IDEA AS ME I DON'T KNOW!" Bill yells back.

"We need to leave! The Infected are getting in!" They push open the door and run into the school, Joel shooting the Infected.

They run through the school and push open the doors to a gym.

"Block it! Hurry!" They push a large piece of equipment against the doors, all of them out of breath.

The other door slams open and three runners and a huge Bloater.

"Shit! Joel!" Quinn and Vivian shoot the Runners and the Bloater throws something at them, it explodes into spores and they all quickly run away.

Quinn pulls a bottle of Whiskey out of her bag and quickly stuffs a rag in the top.

"WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU GET WHISKEY?!" Parker yells, shooting at the Bloater.

"I TOOK IT FROM BILL!" She lights the end of the rag with a lighter and throws it as hard as she can. The Bloater yells and the six of them continue to shoot the Bloater.

"HOLY SHIT FUCKING FINALLY!" Quinn shouts as the Bloater falls, finally dead.

"Let's leave. Now. Before more Infected show up." They quickly climb up onto the bleachers and run out of the school grounds.

"Joel! Ladder!" Joel grabs a ladder and leans it against a fence, shooting the Infected so they can climb up and over.

"Joel hurry!" Parker yells, his voice shaking in fear Joel won't make it over. Joel climbs over and Bill knocks the ladder over.

They turn and run into the house nearest, shutting and locking the door.
