Taking a look around, darkness was surrounding you. Night was approaching fast and you still had no shelter, no food and almost no usable weapons.

The knife was half bent from the force you used to kill lycans and the gun was almost out of bullets.
Although, you were still roaming around the village, hoping to see any other survivors that could help you with Lisa. Not that you needed help, but she was pale, terrified, hungry and just tired form all today's happenings.

"Hello?" You called out, hoping someone will answer.

Before exiting the small cottage beside you, the radio turned on, saying "Luiza's" house is near, if there were any survivors.
Not surprising, the green gates were locked. Groaning, your arms sore from holding the girl, you looked over your shoulder.

Seeing a tree nearby you hoped it was close enough for you to climb over it to the gate. Telling Lisa to get on your back, you secured her with a long piece of fabric.

Climbing up, you jumped on the brick wall, beside the green gate. "Now how the hell do we get down.." Sighing, Lisa shook you, pointing to a ladder. "You're a small genius!"

Taking careful steps you went down the ladder, finally on the other side of the fence.

Banging on the entrance doors, a man got out along with a much older woman.

"Help! Please.. she needs some medication, food and rest.." Nodding, the woman took Lisa off your shoulders, rushing inside.

"What! Why are you letting strangers in here Luiza they could be contagious, look at that girl!" You were about to slap the man but the woman stopped in her tracks.

"Go hunt Iulian."

Rolling his eyes, he was out the gate, you following close behind.

Parting you walked around, hoping to find something in the various boxes.

Entering a house, or rather what's left of it, you saw a few different types of bullets, a pistol and, flour?
Taking the bullets you needed you looked over the place once more, in case you missed something.

Shuffling was all around you, huffs and scratching below and above. The roof was slowly collapsing, a lycan falling down with it.

Screeching sounds were heard from behind you, it alerting others you were present.

"Oh fuck."

Pulling out the pistol you were ready to pull the trigger.
Turning around, there was none other lycan, just the one in front of you.

"What the hell do you want?"

Taking a few steps back, it just looked at you, observing. "Stop staring and go!" You hissed, him slowly backing away and running off. 'What was that..' you wondered, getting out the house before you get smashed by the bricks falling from the ruined roof.

Running around the village you found more bullets and a way better knife than your old one.

......

It wasn't long until you heard screams from the same green gate.

Everything was burning.

"No no no no! It can't fucking be!" You were running as fast as your legs would allow you.
Banging on the doors no one opened.

Then..

Silence.. nothing could be heard but the sound of things burning below the red dancing flames..

"Lisa..!" you cried out, falling to your knees.

"It wasn't your fault." The same man from before stood beside you. Iulian, was it? "It is, I left her there." You were sobbing, the cold air choking you. "They were all sick.. The minute she let those two in, all of them were endangered. You couldn't know, they came hours before you.." Putting a hand on your shoulder you stood up, looking at him.
