Dante looked up from his walkie and looked at all the soilders "Alvaro may be dead, but we still all have a mission to do, we need to take them all out, I was willing to work with them but this has been the last straw, let's move now." He said loading his AK

January 19th, 2030, 2:25 P.M, Daly City Blessedlands County California. Right inside the border. "Do we have enough supplies" Eric asked Almon, "what to leave, of course not, but we need to go, we can comeback and rebuild this place at a time that will actually work right now its not safe do you want to be blown to s***" Almon said as he gathers his weapons and Courtney gathered Grayson Charlotte picking Addison up. "We have Maybe enough food to last 3 days" Charlotte said to Almon. "Okay we will be good for now" Almon answered quickly as he checked the window to see if anyone was in sight. "Hey, I'll stay back and take them out one by one and catch up you guys all go I can hold them off at least till you get far enough away from here for me to run too" Eric said as he walked over towards the window. In the distance he seen 3 walkers roaming. He gained his focus forwards and waited to see a movement. Eric picked up his Rifle and pointed it outside the window. With the scope he seen 10 men walking. "There here head out the back" Eric said. As he pointed the gun towards the man next to Dante. He slowly pulled the trigger. The loud gunshot sprung from the gun and entered the man's head. Dante looked over and stood there in shock. Dante ordered his men to move faster. Almon, Courtney, Charlotte, Grayson, Addison, Robby, Noah, Stephan, Alfred, Jordan, Ryan, Rylie who now has Addison running next to Stephan all ran out the back and straight ahead as far away from the building as they possibly could. Eric continued firing shots at the men next to Dante, but more started forming. Eric slowly panicking began shooting and loading the rifle faster. He pointed the rifle scope towards Dante, the force of a hand touched Eric's shoulder. He turned his head  as a walker went to bite him. He grabbed the walkers face trying to pull it away from him. He quickly moved his left hand and gripped the walkers head he quickly moved his right arm and grabbed his machete. He sliced the walkers skull from the top killing it immediately. He held his shoulder and looked at the bullet wound. He then kicked the walker from the blade of his machete and watched it fall to the ground. Eric looked outside and realized no one was in sight. He quickly got himself over the window and began stepping over slowly onto the ledge. The sound of the stairs crunched as footsteps ran up them. The voices getting louder. Eric quickly side stepped and walked along the ledge and wall slowly getting towards an opening. He made the jump and landed on his knee. He held it in pain as he quickly tried to stand up, he slowly got himself up and grasped enough strength to began limping. He began to try and pick up the pace and head in the direction the rest of the group went. Dante and his men entered the room. "Elias, you look over there under and in everything the rest of you cover what you can" Dante said. Everyone began searching around and looking for the group.

January 19th, 2030, 4:52 P.M a mile and a half away from Blessedlands County California.

Almons footsteps showed in the bright snow as they continued to trudge along the land. As they walked Charlotte noticed in the distance the lakes were all Icy. "Do you think Eric is gonna catch up to us soon" Stephan said looking at Almon. "Of course he's going too, and if he doesn't I will personally go look for him" Almon said. "We should probably keep going, the kids are freezing man" Noah spoke. "Yeah let's keep moving until we find somewhere we can warm up" Almon said as they continued to walk in the freezing cold. Temperatures reached around 0° F the snow on the ground became slightly damp and they continued to trudge through it. Taking every step with caution. Walkers in the distance stood still as if they couldn't move. Almon continued to walk with the rest of the group, Courtney next to him trying to keep up while holding Grayson, "can we stop in the shack across from that lake" Courtney asked. "It's pretty dangerous but if we are all careful then I mean I don't see why we couldn't make it across its freezing. "Sure let's try" Almon said. They all began walking closer to the huge lake in the distance. "Who's the lightest they'll go first with the children" Almon said. "I am probably the lightest" Courtney said. "Are you sure you'll make it across" Almon asked. "Yes of course I will" Courtney answered. "Okay go ahead and please be careful I can't lose you, you guys are all I got" Almon said as Courtney held Addison and slowly walked with Grayson over the Ice, they slowly walked until they got to the end, Then everyone else separately began walking across the ice, everyone stayed around 10 feet or more from each other, Almon got across, so did Rylie, then Stephan, Ryan continued to walk across the ice, he seen Charlotte fall completely clean threw the Ice. His eyes widened, "CHARLOTTE IM COMING" Ryan yelled as he slowly made his way across the ice trying to get there in a good amount of time in hopes she doesn't freeze to death. He began to hear cracks In the ice as he felt it starting to thin. He slowly backed up and tried checking the ice thickness om another part. He pulled his bag from off of him, and threw it in front of himself. He then slowly made his way to his bag then picked it up and did it again. He made his way to Charlotte. And slowly laid down and army crawled to the hole she fell in, she remained calm, trying to hold onto the side of the hole. Ryan grabbed Charlotte's hand and slowly lifted her up out of the ice. "You okay" Ryan said. "Yes you saved me thank you, we should keep going" Charlotte said. Charlotte continued on ahead, Ryan went to move his leg and heard a crack. He looked down to see his foot in the water inside a little hole. "F***" Ryan whispered to himself. Charlotte got across along with everyone but Ryan. "Ryan are you okay" Charlotte shouted out. "My foots stuck, I think if I move it I'm going to fall in" Ryan said. "Do you want one of us to come and help you" Charlotte yelled out. "No, I think the more wait the less of a chance I'll have just let me think" Ryan said. Ryan tried to move his foot, the ice broke more causing him to fall through. Almon ran on the ice and ran towards Ryan who was holding on for dear life. "NO WAIT" Ryan said quickly Almon stopped in his tracks. "You come one more step and we will both fall in and die please, do not come closer for both of our sakes" Ryan said desperately. "Are you sure maybe I can lay crawl to you and get you, you up right now holding onto the ledge perfectly fine" Almon said. "Ice is too thin even laying down might cause us both to fall in" Ryan said. "I'm gonna try and pull myself up okay" Ryan said. Almon nodded his head and watch along with everyone else. Ryan slowly pulled himself up and the ice broke causing him to fully fall in. He quickly tried catching himself but missed and was under the water, under the ice, Almon laid down and slowly army crawled to where he saw Ryan under the ice. His face looked pale as he tried banging on it attempting to break it. Almon used his foot and started stomping on the ice as hard as he could but it wouldn't break. Almon looked around and realized they weren't on a lake but near a dock in the ocean. "GUYS THIS IS NOT A LAKE" Almon yelled. He began trying to break the ice but failed every attempt. "What do you mean it's not a lake" Noah yelled. "I mean somehow this dock is FROZEN AND THIS IS AN OCEAN LOOK OVER THERE ITS ALL OPEN AND NOT FROZEN" Almon yelled. Ryan quickly looked in front of himself in the water and began swimming fast the opposite direction. Almon looked at him swimming in the distance. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING" Almon tried to yell but seen him slowly disappear into the distance. "He swam away I couldn't even see where he was going or anything it's hard to see under the ice in the water" Almon yelled as he tried to get back to the group. He slowly got onto the snowy land again. "I couldn't save him" he muttered as they continued on. They all walked into the shack Almon sat down hands on his face, thoughts running. "I'm going to check around the place make sure everything is okay" Robby said as he walked into the other room. Almon stood up and walked over to the fireplace he seen a torch on the ground and seen wood piled. He grabbed the torch and lit the fireplace. "Charlotte come over here and warm up" Almon said as he stood up and looked outside. "I THINK THATS ERIC" Almon yelled as he seen someone outside. He ran up to the door and outside. Eric walked up to Almon, "Hey, I'm okay, but I would be careful theres footprints everywhere and they can easily track us" Eric said. "Thank you, for everything" Almon said as they walked inside the shack. Robby walked into one of the rooms pointing his pistol into the room along with holding his machete. He looked around. The closet door slowly tried to open then loud bangs erupted as Robby walked closer to the closet, he opened the closet door and a walker barged from the door lunging itself onto Robby, Robby pushed it off himself and pointed his pistol towards it the walker grabbed his leg and he fell backwards onto the floor. The pistol flew backwards a few feet, Robby rolled his body and attempted to grab the pistol. The walker grabbed his leg biting a chunk from it. The walkers strength surprisingly strong flipped robby over. Robby grabbed the machete and smacked it over the walkers head, The machete bounced off. Robby tried to grab its face and realized it's skull was hard. "Come on" Robby yelped. "SOME-" Robby tried screaming as the walker bit his throat and ripped a chunk from it. Robby continued to try and fight the walker off. The walker then bit into his side as the sounds of him choking on his own blood as the blood spewed from his open throat. The walker pulling his intestines from his stomach. Robbys eyes closed as his head turned, his fingers twitched as the walker continued to bite into his stomach. Noah heard a yelping sound and looked at Charlotte, "did you hear that" Noah said. Charlotte nodded, Noah quickly pulled out his knife and walked upstairs. His left hand was on his hip holding onto his gun in the holster. He turned the corner and walked into the first room. He stopped to the vision of a walker eating away at Robby. Noah quickly pulled his gun out and shot the walker. The bullet entered its head. The walker dropped and fell lifeless. Noah ran over to Robby, "Are you alive" Noah asked. No response, Noah took his pistol and shot it directly into Robbys head. His fingers twitched again as the bullet entered his brain, Noah turned around and grabbed the walker dragging it to the window he kicked the window in and chucked the walker outside. He then walked over to Robby. "I'm Sorry" Noah said as he walked outside the room. He then walked downstairs and into the living room area. "Robbys gone" Noah said to everyone standing there, Almon in shock turned around and walked outside. Jordan walked over towards the counter and noticed a grenade sitting there. She picked it up and put it in her pocket on her chest. "I just found a grenade" Jordan said. "We can use that later" Eric answered. Almon came back inside, "everyone get rest, we are leaving in the morning" Almon said as he walked over towards Courtney sat down and cuddled her. "Everything's going to be okay we are going to be okay" Almon said as he stroked her hair. "I know" She answered. Everyone began getting rest and closing there eyes. The night grew cold, winds blew strong the snow began to fall.

10:52 P.M, January 19th, 2030, shack near the Pacific ocean in California.

Almon woke up to the sounds of screaming from outside the shack. Almon looked outside and seen around 25 soilders. Almon woke Noah up. Noah looked at Almon "We are F*****" Almon said as another voice yelled "COME OUT NOW OR WE WILL START SHOOTING ALL OF OUR MACHINE GUNS" "that's 100% Dante" Almon said as guns began shooting inside the building. "EVERYONE STAY DOWN" Almon yelled as he dropped to the floor. Jordan stood up and got her gun and began walking upstairs. Charlotte followed, they both got inside the room where Robby laid dead. Charlotte stuck her gun outside the open window and Jordan kicked the other one in, they began shooting. 25 more men started coming, "this is going to be impossible" Jordan said as they continued to Shoot. One of the soilders got on a rock and pointed his sniper towards them. He aimed carefully at Jordan's chest. "Right near the heart" the man said as he shot his sniper. The bullet hit directly on Jordan's chest immediately the grenade exploded on impact causing the shrapnel to explode into her insides. Her chest was all burned and peices of shrapnel from the blast stuck out. Her face all bloody skin practically missing.  Jordan laid on the ground as her blood was all over Charlotte. Charlotte's mouth opened wide as she quickly ran downstairs for cover.
