End of the road

P1- Chapter 3 Alec

   We are frozen. Kendal shakes my shoulder and takes my gun to load it. There was about 8 zombies coming our way. Toby stands back and hands Kendal bullets, and me to. I've never shot anything before, I think. I stare at the loaded gun in my hands. The crawling, melted flesh, hungry for human, zombies are getting closer and Kendal and I are cornered in a gun shot. Not the worst place to be I guess.
  Kendal begins to shoot. "Shoot, Jenna! Shoot!!" She yells at me.
   I hold up the riffle. I'm shaking in fear. But I pull the trigger and knock one down. What was I scared of? I think. Erika has run away, but her boyfriend has started shooting as well. He's shooting them as they come closer. He soon leaves though to comfort Erika.
   The mass of cannibals is growing, I can no longer stay calm. They're not very fast, but if I was alone, I'd be screwed.
Boom, pow. Another down. Then another. Suddenly, the mass of zombies gets smaller, and when we shoot the last few we see zombie bodies on the ground and a man holding a riffle not far from us. He has a hat on and sunglasses. He helped shoot some of the zombies, saved our asses. He looks badass, but doesn't say a word.
   "Kendal, I'm going to introduce myself. You and Toby go look for more guns." I order Kendal, then I go off to say hello. In the distance I see Illias trying to convince Erika that everything will be okay.
   I approach the man and he doesn't budge. As I get closer I see that he isn't as old as imagined. I imagined a oldish guy like in zombieland, but he's young. 20's. He had a five o clock shadow and defined jaw bone.
   "Hello," I say looking up at him with a slight smile. He's much taller than I am. "I'm Jenna. Former college student, cpr certified, and I've been a zombie killer for about an hour now. My friends and I thank you for helping us with the crowd."
He looks at me with a straight face. "No problem," he takes of his sunglasses and places them on the rim of his shirt. He smiles, "glad to see I'm not alone here. Everyone has been eaten or they've left." He states. He offers his right hand. "I'm Alac. Nice to meet you, Jenna the zombie killer," we shake hands.
"Nice to meet you too, Alec." I say politely. "Let me introduce you to my team," I don't release our hand shake. Instead, I pull him in the direction of Toby and Kendal. Kendal gives me a weird look and says "who's he?"
I say, "Kendal, this is Alac." He waves. I gesture towards Erika and Illias who are walking over, "this is Erika and Illias," I point to Toby who is holding mr. Twinkie, "and this is Toby and our cat mr. Twinkie."
   Alac smiles and waves towards everyone. "Nice to meet everyone," He turns to me, "especially you, Jenna."
I blush. "Hey, do you want to ride with us? Be part of our group?" I ask him nicely.
   "I would love that." He says with a smile.
We all got free subway. It was great.
  We were on the road shortly after. Kendal loves the idea of staying and killing all the zombies before they drift to more towns. It's a good idea, but I don't want to be eaten, BUT.. I also don't want to live in fear. Either way, there's going to be danger.
Danger is not exactly my middle name.
Alec is great to talk to. I've learned lots about him. Like, he grew up with all sisters, 5 of them, and he's the youngest. His mother was single and often lonely, so she would bring home these strange men, date them and they would always try to bond with Alec.
He didn't like any of them. Anyway, we connected.
   It's so funny how in 2 hours a town can become ghostville. It was once a fun, full of people, exciting town and now it's abandoned. The only people we see are the zombies and the dead people on the ground on the verge of transforming into beasts. One day that will be me. Kendal tries to think on the bright side and convince me if it, but I'm weak, terrified, and extremely sad.
   "Potty break!!" Kendal yes as she's pulls into a gas station parking lot.
   "Ick, could you pick somewhere nicer?" I ask in disgust.
   "Nope! Gotta go now!" And she jumps out of the car. We follow, I think we all had a bit of nervous pee.
  3 bathrooms, 6 people, countless zombies nearby. Not great numbers. There's a family restroom, and two stalls which all contain a weird toilet/porta-potty thing and a dispenser of hand sanitizer. Alec takes one and Erika takes one. Kendal takes the family one. Leaving Toby, Ilias, and i toilet-less. 
Toby has a solution though.
