April 24
Code
He had driven these nuts for hours it seemed. The girl was in the backseat sleeping. He was okay with that, she looked like she needed it. The other two were staring straight ahead. Not a damn peep out of them. He liked it this way because then that cockamamie story they are telling is just thoughts in the air.
“We are coming to the end of town. Where are we going from here?” he asked with hesitation. He did not want to be led to some back road just to find he trusted murderers.
“Go about another mile. You will be in town then. You will see.” Rick he thought. He wasn’t sure about the other’s names but he didn’t care at that point.
“Okay.” He replied. Sighing heavily he just kept driving.
Rick
He knew that the old bird of a sheriff didn’t believe them. He hoped that he would wake up from this nightmare. His children were gone and his wife was lord knows where.
“What in the bloody hell!” Code yelled. Rick turned just in time to see the hoard of dead walking toward their car.
“Holy shit, that looks like the entire town!” Will yelled, “Do you believe us now old man?!”
Will
Liv had gotten woken up by all the yelling. Will knew that Code probably was still in disbelief but what could he do? How could he convince him? This isn’t a joke, this shit is real!
“Code, plow through them. Please.” Doing so with hesitation Code floored the car.
The Shadow
As he worked in his ‘lab’ he became excited. These two were his new pets! He could do as he liked. He knew this family. Who didn’t know that family in this town? Dysfunctional to say the least. Rick worked all the time, and well Stella she was a tired old stay at home mom. This would be fun, where is her knight and shining armor now? Nowhere to be found.
He hated this town. Hated everyone in it. That is why he worked for so long on this ‘zombie’ plan. Little did everyone know, he was in control and he hoped he had killed off everyone else in town. He wanted there to be nothing left. He would be the sole survivor and a hero for slaying all these beasts. HA! He loved the sound of that!
Stella
That voice she knew sounded familiar, she just couldn’t place it. How did he know her name?! Who was he.
“Mom?” Aly was rolling over and wiping her eyes.
“Oh hunnie, are you okay??
“Mom, I’m fine. That nice man fixed my arm, see?”
“I do see baby, do you know who the man is?”
“Yes, Shadow.” All of a sudden a booming voice came through the walls,
“Stella Pickett.” That was her maiden name, why would he use that?!
“You stupid woman, you married Rick and now look at you. You are stuck in my grasps. Tell me how did you end up here?”
“I’m not telling you anything!”
“Oh darling, you don’t have to tell me a thing, but I do know all! Don’t play coy Stella, haven’t you figured out who I am yet? Oh come on Stell Bell, you know me.”
“Holy Shit…” She knew now and she was scared. She didn’t want to be in his grasps, not again…
“Ha! That’s my girl! I have you now.”
She began to cry…
