Hours go by, screams were heard, cries fading in the wind before nothing. It was quite and quite is never good.

Inside the dark blue car sits Takemichi, curled up on herself on the floor in the back. Her small hands covering her ears and eyes shut tight, while the blood from her face slowly dries leaving a trail. "G-Grandpa..." she whispers "Grandpa....where are you, I'm scared" her eyes begin to water before she shakes her head 'no I must not cry, I must not make a sound' she scolded herself.

Slowly she opens her eyes, blinking a few times so her eyes can adjust to the know dim light seeping throw the window. She takes a small breath before her hands slowly slide down from her ears to rest on her knees witch now have small bruises from the fall. She gives them a small wipe before forcing herself to grab the seat and slowly stand, keeping her head low she slowly peaks over the top off the door/bottom off the window.

Her eyes widen, the sight before her was horrific. The monsters own the streets, they are on the path, roaming the road and in many more places. "Grandpa...where are you?" She once again sinks to the floor 'stay quite, stay hidden, don't let them get you' she kept repeating her teachers words to herself before noticing the discarded bag she threw to the other side off the car once she new she was safe.

Reaching a small harm across the manages to grab it and drag is close to her before opening the bag, inside was food that could last her a while, a small cover and some other random crap witch a 6 year old has no clue what they are used for. Reaching inside she grabs the blanket and pulls it out 'quite thin fabric' she thinks, she's gonna have to thank Emma for helping her recognise different fabrics.

She puts the blanket in her mouth and begins to maul it like an animal, it took a while but eventually it ripped "yes" she whispers before pulling at the ripped area, this makes the blanket rip in too. She does this a couple more times so she has enough for all the windows, "now, where is something I can use to put it u-" she quickly rummages through the bag only to find absolutely nothing she could use.

She moves the bag off her lap as well as the blanket pieces before slowly crawling onto the seat, checking every window while she does so. She leans over the back seat and dips her head into the boot off the car but is met with random and most likely useless stuff, she sighs before climbing back down. "What kn- you got this my little fire cracker, don't give up" her brothers voices cut her off, they were always encouraging her to carry on no matter how hard a situation was.

She nods to herself as she grabs the handle to the door and is ready to make a break for the house only to freeze cause there standing infront off the door was one off those monsters, it was making noises before slowly turning to the window in witch it is know staring back at the small child. Her hand starts to shake with fear before Takemichi slowly takes it away from the door and sinks back down to the floor only to hear that thing smack against the door, trying it's best to get to the living.

Takemichi stayed as close to the door as possible as to stay out off the monsters sight but little did she know that she was just running on the small amount off adrenaline. Soon sleep took over the small child's body, her head bobs onto the door before her eyes flutter closed to the sound off banging, her last words before sleep took complete control was "Mama.....".

Hours pass before Takemichi awakes, her eyes shooting open before she jolts upright and darts her head around the car. No more sound was heard, she slowly grabs the bag before pulling out a small breakfast bar and eating it before having a few sips "right, tape" she reminded herself but this time she crawls across the car and into the front witch happens to be closer to the house, taking a breath she slowly opens the door and quickly looks around. Finding their is no monsters she slides out without a sound and gently closes the door.

She then bolts for the front door and gives the handle a jiggle only to find it locked, she walks over to the window and peaks inside. Suddenly she hears noises and turns around, there walking down the drive was multiple monsters, the small child's heart starts to pound. Tears start falling as she backs up against the porch railings "Grandpa....Shiro, Mikey, Izana, Emma.....where are you?" She begins to cry, they grow closer and closer. The small child leans against the railings, waiting her fate when suddenly she falls back and through the gap.

Takemichi's eyes widen as she hits the ground with a thud, the monsters trapped by the railing not far above her, she takes a few breaths as she stares up at them. "No...no I can't fail" she hurries to stand before running towards the back garden, squeezing herself through the broken gaps in the fence. Looking around all she sees is blood, everything ruined and windows smashed in. Her cold and now dirty feet quietly tip toe across the garden path and towards the broken kitchen window, grabbing a flower pot box she flips it on its side and climbs on top, barely able to see inside.

Using her small fingers she moves some glass out the way before pulling herself up and onto the window, her legs swinging inside only to be cut by the sharp glass still attached, she lets out a small squeak as she continues. Managing to get through the window, only getting a few cuts, she slides down into the sink and looks around. Making her way down onto the floor she quickly looks around and nothing seems out off the ordinary so she begins to look for what she thinks she needs.

She begins upstairs.
