It's Never Too Late

Chapter 12: Intruder

💀Molly's POV💀
My dad, mom, Heather and I go into the house across the street from where James and his family are along with Doc. Dad and I take the upstairs while Heather and Mom look around downstairs. Dad and I breach one room, empty....good. I start to look around in here see if there is anything of significance to us. It's nothing crazy though, maybe just a guest bedroom or something like that. I open the closet door with my gun out. I'm shocked at what I see in there all I do is scream "Dad!" He comes running down the hall with his gun out. "Molly what's wrong?!" He looks at me with a huge grin on my face, "Look" I said. He looks in the closet. Water. Gallons and gallons of water just sitting in the closet. "Molly I'm so proud of you. We've hit the jackpot. Food isn't as hard to come across as water." He tells me....I felt so happy. I turn around to look at him and freeze. "Say one word and Daddy is dead." A man says with a gun pointed at the back of my dads head. Oh crap, what do I do?! "Drop your weapons an leave this house and nobody has to die, do you hear me?" The man says. Dad pulls out his gun slowly and puts it on the ground. Right as he does, however, dad kicks his leg out through his knee and dad quickly gets up and puts his foot on the guys hand, disarming him. "GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!" The man says. Dad punches him in the face twice, knocking him out cold. I need to go tell the others. I tell dad what I'm doing and go.
💀Josh's POV💀
I bring the man downstairs, him still being knocked out, and tie him to a chair. Heather and Lisa are both down here with me. Leeanne walks through the front door with the others. After closing the door behind them, he wakes up. "Wha-" he starts to say but fades out and stops talking. He looks around the room to see all of us. "Who are you people!" He asks. "No, I'm going to ask you these questions." I say. "Who are you than, what's your name?" I ask. "My name is Howard...and I'm gonna kill every last one of you." He starts smiling and laughing maniacally. I look over at Paul's kids to see them starting to cry, mainly Leeanne. "You better watch yourself before you end up with a round in the back of your head." I say pulling my pistol out to his head. "You won't, not in front of all these people, kids, you're too weak and just not ready for this world. And now you're dead." Just as he says that he breaks loose and tries to stab me with his knife, I punch him twice in the face and he stabs my stomach. "Get off my dad!" I hear Molly scream. I start to fade out, but not until I throw him out the window I punch him two more times, than it gets black.....I'm losing bliss quickly, I look up to see Paul punching him, than stabbing him.....than he shot him.............................
......hello?...............
.........wake up now.......
I start to fade back in to hear Doc trying to wake me up. "Wake up Josh!" "What's goi-" "There's no time for explaining, but we gotta go! I patched you up so you stopped bleeding but you need to take it easy for a bit, here I'll help you up." I look over to see Molly and James boarding up the windows and door from arms trying to reach in....crap, walkers. We've got to get the hell out of here, right now.
