"Hey sweety wake up" I heard a voice. "Five more minutes, please," I begged sleepily. "No Zilla, you have to get up or you will make us late. And I don't want to be stuck in traffic, young lady." ugh, it was mom. I knew we had to get up early, but I didn't want to. I turned around in bed to look at my clock. It was 5:00 in the morning. We are visiting my mother's side of the family today for a family reunion. I'm not a big fan of my mom's side of the family. They are rude, and I don't feel like I'm family with them. More like a bystander just witnessing all of it.
"Fine Mom, I'm getting up, just let me get my stuff ready." I know I should have packed yesterday but I stayed up reading 'How to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse'. I know it sounds stupid but it's truly fascinating. I know some key things you should know if it ever happened. I wrote them all down in my diary. We all packed into the car and Dad started to drive to my grandparents' house"Ugh Mom, why do we have to go visit them?" My brother Brodey can sometimes be quite annoying, which is one of those times. "Would you just shut up? It's not like you'll die while you're in this car". Dad yelled. I hated my dad. Yes, I know hate is a strong word but with my dad, I say it wholeheartedly, I hate him. "Please calm down Dad, I will watch over him while I'm back here". I was hoping what I said would calm him down but knowing his temper it's hard to calm a man like him down when he is fired up. "Ugh, but he better shut up. I don't want a headache by the time we get to your grandparent's house." mad was an understatement he was pissed, and we could all tell. As we were stuck in traffic, I noticed people getting out of their cars were running or just standing there. "Honey, what's going on?" Mom asked Dad. "I don't know sweety, I'm just wondering why they are running or what they are running from?" I could tell Dad was trying to calm the situation and not scare us, but I was already scared. What was happening? Why were they running? What were they running from?
It all happened so fast.
One minute you're relaxing and the next you're running for your life. Now you have to learn to survive on your own.
Will you survive?
