When I Close My Eyes

A warm welcoming

I sighed as I felt a sharp pain in my side "wake up meat sack" I heard a girl's rough voice, I opened my eyes barely and glared at her "be glad I don't get up quickly when I get up other wise I probably would've hog tied you and sacrificed you to the zombies, last person who kicked me I did that yet roasted them over the fire and fed them to my dog, but the dog got food poisoning and died" I seethed, the girl took a few steps back obviously intimidated now, I stood up slowly and yawned "now why the hell have you awaken me from my slumber?" I snapped my fiery Amber gaze burning into her,"Captain's orders ma'am" she said her voice shaking slightly, it was quite easy to scare 12 year olds in an apocalypse now, I rolled my eyes as I stormed out of the tent and outside to see the leader from earlier barking out orders, I held my hand above my eyes shielding them from the bright simmering sun "Flicker, you take Amy and Dimitri on patrol" "Ella take Hudson with you on your looting spree" "Jessy, you and Malcolm go check on the zoo and make sure we have no escapees, and make sure you feed the dang lions this time! Jane nearly got her hand chomped off trying to feed it last week!" "Jane, Frankie! I what you both to do a supplies check and a weapon check! Amy mentioned that she thinks someone took one of her pocket knifes" the group of kids scattered on command as the presumed leader stretched, he was such a babe like you read in a book, I didn't even know they existed! He had sandy brown hair, a chiseled jaw, a masculine structure, he was quite appealing, if the infection hadn't started I probably wouldn't be a sarcastic sour bad ass hellion and probably would've been all over him, but I am and I don't do that type of stuff anymore not since Caster...
I let my hand hit my side loosely as I squinted to see against the blinding light, being in a dark tent for so long definitely had it's pros and cons, mostly cons.
He met my gaze "you're awake!" He exclaimed sounding excited but straightened and cleared his throat "ok first we need your name, age, history, etc." he said sternly and motioned for me to follow, I shook my head "my names Cynthia I don't give a fuck so let me leave" I seethed a stern fiery gaze of pure unfiltered rage.
He looked taken bit taken back "well I'm James don't freaking care what you want or don't want" he snapped mockingly
I hissed and went to reach in my bag, my face froze, I looked over my shoulder, my breathing quickened slightly before I scowled closing my eyes and slowly counted to 50.. I opened my eyes and he had a smug look on his face as he watched me, I charged and in a split second I was on top of him "WHERE IS IT!!!!" I screeched in his face, my eyes watering but I fought back the urge to cry.
He chuckled "I don't know what you're talking about miss Cynthia I don't give a freak"
My frown turned into a wicked grin "then you won't mind if I gut you by hand and feed you all 8 of your organs" I whispered darkly, though my eyes were still watering.
He chuckled again "yeah right I don't think you'll be doing that"
I heard a gun cock behind me.
I laughed "you don't play nice do you? But I really need that bag!" I seethed fury in my eyes
"Try anything and Frankie's gonna blow your brains out" he said
"Well she'll just have to put me out of my fucking misery because I literally have nothing to live for since I don't have my bag anymore, but I'm not a coward, I'll face death when it comes it" I snapped and kicked my leg up, connecting it with her elbow even though I couldn't see it, knocking it out of her hand and over a bit, rolled off James, grabbed it, and was on my feet in a instance. Franking grabbed her elbow cursing replacement cuss words under her breath "that brat kicked me in the elbow!!!!" She yelled.
"No duh idiot!" I seethed at her aiming the gun from to the other "I'm trigger happy so don't you try anything"
James got to his feet and put his hands up "Jane you're not slick, we need to work on your hiding, and don't try anything" he growled looking past me at the bushes.
Frankie chuckled.
James took a step forward "Cynthia,put the gun down"
Yeah right.
I snarled "take another step and your gonna have a hole in ya!!"
He slowly took another step.
I rubbed my temples for a moment "you guys are hurting my brain you're both so dumb" I hissed bitterly as I aimed the gun again.

And pulled the trigger.
