Y/N Hart, simple,hot headed, sassy Aussie girl, after live in Australia for most of her life her dad get a bit opportunity to move to Michigan, USA where she meets her neighbour Glen Rhee, after years of knowing each other the two become inserprable...
Its been a few days since I left the city, I honestly didn't know where to start, so I look for a group, do I start looking for Glenn, do I do both i dont know, it been kinda hard to think with all theses bitters walking around nothing I can't handle but sleeping in trees is getting really old. I found some rope that I have been using to tie around the tree trunk and my waist so I don't fall out of the tree, but even then every slap of a twig that I hear or rustling of bushes has my eye snapping open.
'This is fucking bullshit' I think to myself before closing my eyes again
I wake up the next morning feeling like I was hungover and I don't even get the pleasure of being drunk. I climb down from the tree and start my journey again. Again my mind wonders to Glenn, we have been inseparable since we met, finish off my schooling with him, graduate with him, got into fights at school because of him, he was my rock when I lost my parents, moved to Atlanta together and now I may never see him again, I don't care what anyone says he is my brother and im worried for him, I mean he can run fast and probably do and get thing with out being noticed, but that's all he has, he was never like me able to hunt or track and I just hope I don't find him as a biter.
I stopped a couple of time during the day for a break, but it was being to get dark and I had to find some where to sleep, I walk for about 20 minutes when I came across a barn, this would be perfect for the night i grabbed my hunting knife and made my way into the barn, I did hear any groans from the biters so I when and checked ever stall, still nothing I had one my to check and to my surprise this was this gorgeous black mare in there, I put all my stuff on the ground quietly and started making my way over to her.
I lived on a property when I was in Australia, so I new how to ride a horse, this would definitely speed up my land coverage and I wouldn't have to walk as far, don't get me wrong I love growing up on a property and hunting but I hate cardio, even time we had cross country coming up at school I would try and get out of it and these under freaks that ha risen has made that difficult cause it's either i run or I get eaten.
I slowly walk up to the mare holding my hand out to her, I stop and wait for her it come to me, she seemed a bit hesitat at first but slowly walked up to me sniffing my hand, sensing I wasn't a threat she stepped forward for me to letting me pat her, looking down at the stall a saw a name
' midnight' I say out loud
' I think you and me are going to get along just fine' I said smiling
Night had fallen and I decided to sleep in the stall next to her after checking the barn was lock up and nothing could get in I had the best nights sleep I had in months.
----------------------------------
The morning i woke up feeling refreshed and energised, got up stretched and when to check on midnight, I gave her some food and water while I ate a can of pears, its time like this when I had some flour to make damper (a traditional Australian soda bread), after I finish i go find a saddle and bridle, and saddle up midnight i grab my bag and climb up on mid night and set off.
Its been a couple of hours since we left the barn and now we are just taking a break its almost dark so I decided to set up a small perimeter for the night and camp.

The next day after changing and braiding my hair, its time to start travelling again, I stop for a rest and had just taken off my jacket leaving me in my singlet, when I felt a hand wrap around my waist and a knife against my neck.
'Give me your weapons and food and ill make your death quick' the man whispered in my ear
' this guy just missed with the wrong girl ' I thought to myself
I through my my head back and head butt the man in the nose and we both fell backwards,at this moment of distraction I fought to get the upperhand and I had it until his knife when into my left shoulder stopping at about halfway as I got it out with a and 8th of the knife still in he dragged it down my arm t my elbow , not so deep it was going to need stitches like my shoulder but enough to make the blood run.
The blood ran onto this guys face and it gave me enough time to grab my gun and shoot him in the head. I lay back trying to catch my breath then I remembered my arm, I went to midnight who had my bag strapped to her and found the first aid-kit I didn't have anything to stitch with, so I just put a pad on and wrapped to with compression bandage as best as I could, I had just my jacket back on when I heard the moans, I looked around to see at least 15 biters heading towards me.
' time to go' I said jumping on midnight
I was passed i could have handled that but with my arm I couldn't I had to find and open space to use my guns, I wish I could make this horse run but if I do I risk hurting my arm further, I walked as fast as I could on midnight when I saw a clearing up ahead this was perfect I ran out of the clearing on midnight this was going to hurt whether I liked it or not as soon a I hit the clearing I saw a big white house with rv and tents set up out the front, I groaned great more people although country people are pretty chill, compared to city people so let's hope the dont kill me, I was about 10 meters from the tree line when I jumped of Midnight, those freaks won't be too far behind me.
As soon as they stared appearing, I started firing, I had shoot about 5 when I heard the sound of more guns firing, this would have been alot easier if I was using both my guns. I looked behind me and saw a black guy, as I walked up to him i shouted
'Hey!'
He looked over at me, as I got to him I shoved midnights reins in his hands and said to him
'If you let her go, I'll shoot you'
I didn't give him a chance to talk, I turned around this was much better now I had both my guns. After kill 7 more biters they where all dead, i dropped my hands to my knees and took a couple of deep breaths, then I remembered the company I had turn around with 2 guns and a crossbow aimed at me, so what do I do I aim my guns at the 2 guys with guns.
