They got closer and closer until I smelt them. My eyes watered and my nose felt like it was on fire. I'm gonna die...maybe it's for the best. No I have to find mom.
With that thought in mind I looked around. There was plenty of cars. But they'll see me on top. But underneath I would be safe. Hopefully.
The cool ground pressed against my skin. I shimmied under just in time.
Soon the shuffle of feet surrounded me. It seemed to go on forever. I hope these things didn't smell me like the first one did before.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
"Are you fucking crazy! Do you want to attract all of these things to us!" A deep voice growled.
"Listen we didn't have to save your ass back there. We could have left you for dead. That's what you would've been now. DEAD." This voice belonged to a female.
Another male voice replied but it was soft. " G..guys come on. We have to keep moving."
Instead of dragging I heard actually steps. Footsteps! There was a comfort in it. It reminded me I wasn't alone and it also reminded me that I had to do something.
My body pushed allowing me to drag myself. There was a pressure on my head and a click.
"WAIT...he looks normal." The female voice said.
"Everyone looked normal and now look at them. Mindless monsters. I never took risk and I'm not starting for some kid."
"It's not your choice to make."
A rough hand yanked me up. I found myself looking at a man in the face. He had stringy greying hair and a stone cold expression.
"Are you alone." He was the owner of the deep voice.
I was lost for words and just nodded.
"Are you infected."
I shook my head.
My body was shoved into the women. "He's your responsibility, just know that's more blood on your hands."
"I wont be any trouble I swear." My voice came out as a whisper.
She held my shoulder. "I know."
"Alright so the plan is we keep going straight. We're leaving this town and going to the city. We just have to push through." The other guy said.
"We would never make it if you keep pitying the dead." The man glanced at me with a scowl.
The women grossed her arms."You're not exactly helping either. With all your negative energy."
"There's nothing to be positive about. Look around love everything is dead."
The women face reddened." Their dead and were alive! That's more than enough to be positive for! So you either shut up or leave!"
That was the end of it and our journey began. The journey in my new home. The new world. And it's gonna be a long one.
