(cha cha cha choom) damn it the car broke down! What are we gonna do? I slam my fist onto the steering in anger. Jamie looks at me in surprise. were supposed to get out of the city and this happens we will never make it to the evacuation convoy in time. Hey Alex, calm down we'll be fine we should just go on foot, if we stay here any longer we will be dead meat so get ahold of yourself! Jamie is never the kind to yell; he's usually peaceful and happy. This was the first time I saw him like this. yeah you're right Jamie, i should calm down. well we should get the bag of guns and clothes from the trunk we need to get going now. alright i'll get them you stay here and keep watch. I will. The night was quiet and cold. It was like a dead zone with no sound at all. got them now let go. We walked down highway 74 every once in a while. There would be an abandoned car or trash throughout the road. hey look at a gas station! Jamie said happily. That's good now we can get some food and finally sleep. When we entered the gas station the door was broken leaving glass all over the ground. well the power is still on so that's good. we should scout around to make sure nothing is here. alright, i guess i'll check the back of the store and you should check the backroom ok? ok. I opened the door to enter behind the counter. ohhh ciggys i'll take you. i grab the cigarette's and look around once more. ugh what's that smell it smells disgusting. i wave my hand around my nose trying to air out the smell to no evail. I look farther into the back and sea black stains. That's not good. I mumble before looking farther. I cover my face and try not to vomit, there in front of me was was flys, and blood splattered All over the wall, there was a man too, it was obvious what he done. I quietly exit the room before throwing up every where. Jamie ran over in shock. Buddy you ok? Fuck no! I said on the ground. What happened?! A man... God, he killed his self! You sure? Jamie said helping me get up. Go look for your self. Uhh... Sure. He goes look, he comes back looking as though he was to choke. We should get the stuff and go. Jamie said pale. Sure... sure just let me breathe. I say before going outside and sitting on a bench. I light a cigarette and take a puff. Damn... I guess that's gonna get more common. I say mumbling. I drop the cigarette and stomp it out before going to get Jamie. Yo Jamie, remember when I said we could stay tonight? Yeah and no we're not staying the man in the back is a bad Omen. He said honestly. Yeah that was what I was gonna say, but anyway we should hit the hay. I say
Before opening the door for Jamie. Thank.. you. I quickly follow behind. Hey can I carry the bag? Yeah sure. Jamie says surprised. We should be careful, we don't know what could happen, you know. Yeah well hopefully we can find a abandoned RV to stay in, I mean there is cars around but we will be way too close for comfort. Yeah... I would not want to be sleeping on you. I smirk jokingly. Dude no don't play like that. He says laughing. Well back to being serious, we might have to sleep in a car, I mean it's getting really late. I hope not! Yeah me too. I say smiling. Hey speak of the devil, look there. I say pointing. Thank God. He says with a sigh. Well I didn't expect that. We walk to the vehicle going through grass. They must have had to leave quick. Yeah I see that. He says quietly and cautiously before opening the door of the RV. Yeah there all up in the ditch. I say while attempting to climb up into the RV. Damn it's on a incline. I say while struggling to get in. Here let me help you. He says that before pushing me up into the RV. Thanks bud. I quickly offer my hand to help him up. Thanks. He says grabbing my hand to enter the RV. Well it doesn't look half bad. Well it looks like they left the keys. Jamie said shaking it in his hand. Nice I bet it still has gas. Well we should put everything in there own spot. I'll go look in the mini fridge. Jamie says. Of course you are. I say seriously. Don't worry I'm just looking to check if anything is still good, while putting food in it. Okay, well I'll go put the guns next to the bed. Ok. Jamie said before quickly putting food in it. I walk towards the back of the RV looking at the curtain before moving it, I look around the bed is big enough for 2 people and the bed is nice and neat, I look around it noticing that the cabinet above is open. Interesting. I say before walking to check it out. Inside there was cash and a note. (Honey if you find this please get groceries I'll be gone for a while) I guess a woman was driving and I guess they were in a rush. Jamie taps on my shoulder. Earth to Alex. Oh sorry just looking at something it's not important. Oh... Ok. He quickly lays on the bed and moves too the side. Thanks. Your welcome, oh hey Don't worry about the food I put it in the fridge. Oh thanks I say before falling face first on the bed. Jamie laugh's at me. Yea I'm going to get some sleep you should too. No shit dude bruh I've not sleeper in 2 days. Same bud, Well goodnight and don't be weird. I say jokingly. He laughs out loud. Well goodnight bud. Goodnight try to sleep. We both sleep in are own directions and fall asleep.

But it won't be better tomorrow. A voice says to you from the dark dark... Darkness.
