Survival of the fittest (A One Direction,TWD, and TVD zombie apocalypse story)

Golden Eyes

Previously in Survival of the Fittest:

  "But she told us to leave! Maybe we can go to the prison and get her some help!" Niall says.
True. Louis might be there too!
"Uhh guys? We need to find this prison fast!" Harry suddenly says. "Why?" Niall asks. We all stop to look at him, still carrying an unconscious Zayn. He looks at us horrified, "Zayn's not breathing."

Eleanor's POV:

  "WHAT?!" I shriek rushing to Zayn. I press my fingers to his neck, trying to find a pulse and then freak out when I can't find one. "His heart isn't beating!" I say to the others. "Lay him on the ground Harry, Eleanor and Niall, look out for walkers." Tom instructs while kneeling on the ground next to Zayn. He starts to pump Zayn's chest, trying to resuscitate him and gives him CPR. I watch in shock as Tom practically kisses Zayn. He looks at me while pumping again.

  "What are you waiting for? Get rid of the walkers!" He says. I snap out of it and grab Niall who uses his knives and revolver to kill the walkers while I use my crossbow. I hear a noise from behind me and shoot a walker who goes down. When it does, a man appears in view with shaggy brown hair and a vest, holding a crossbow like me. I point mine at him and he does the same.

  "Who the hell are y'all? The Governor's henchmen?" He asks roughly after observing us. "Who the bloody hell is the Governor? Never mind that, who the bloody hell are you?" I ask back frowning. "He's breathing! We've got a heartbeat!" Tom yells from behind interrupting our standoff. Someone seems to click in the stranger's head. "Are you Popstar's friends?" He asks, still roughly. "Popstar? You mean Liam?!" Niall says our eyes widening. "Yeah, I'm from the prison." He says. I lower my crossbow. "Thank God! Liam had us worried! Did he catch Louis, is he at the prison too?" I ask excitedly.

  "I ain't got time for this, have you seen a woman named Lia?" He asks still angrily." "Yes! But oh you have to help our friend! He got shot earlier!" I say remembering Zayn. "Where is she?! Is she okay?! Answer me!" He asks completely ignoring the fact that Zayn got shot. "She-she well didn't look so good. She was like freaking out and in pain, but told us to leave without her and to get to the prison!" Niall says, intimidated by the stranger. "Her face did some crazy things too! Like her eyes changed color and it looked like she had fangs or something!" I say. The man looked away for a second. "That's just bullshit. Y'all were probably imagining it."

  He says quieter. I scoff. "ALL of us? At the same time?" I say. "Whatever, where did she go?" He dismisses. "She's not too far away, we just separated. But our friend Zayn's injured! We just restarted his heart because it stopped!" He finally lowers his crossbow and pushes past us, crouching over Zayn, feeling his pulse. "It's there, but faint. Can you help him?" Tom says. The stranger looks Tom up and down. "The hell are ya wearing?" He asks frowning. Tom sighs. "It's a costume." The man scoffs, "You a tranny or something?" He asks. I bite my lip trying not to laugh. Tom looks horrified. "Not at all! I'm an actor!" He says. The man grunts in response.

  "Can you help Zayn or not?" Harry asks impatiently. The man looks up at him and opens his mouth, probably about to badmouth Harry, when all of a sudden, a howl pierces the air. "Was that a wolf?" I ask. "Shit." The man says under his breath. The few walkers that were starting to approach us turn towards the sound and start to follow in that direction. "There's wolves out here? Lia is out here by herself! She could get hurt!" Tom says worried. The man looks at him with some emotion in his eyes. Anger? No, jealousy. Another howl pierces the air louder this time, as if it's closer. The man clenches his jaw.

  "Alright, come on." He says, picking up Zayn and throwing him over his shoulder and starts to run. We follow him. "Wait what about Lia?" Niall asks panting along. I shoot walkers along the way as does the man with a pistol from his belt. Harry and Niall flank the sides. Tom brings up the rear, wielding Zayn's previous baseball bat. "If I had a choice, I'd leave y'all here and go after ma girl, but she'd have ma ass if she knew I left ya. I'll take ya to the prison and then go after her."
