Jordan's POV
We all had a life before the world took a detour to hell. Now I don't even know if this is living life. You need to survive and run. Run for your life or you'll loose it. I've seen too many people die and killed too many people too. My brother Caleb couldn't even enjoy his childhood. He had to grow up fast. He's only 9 years old and knows how to handle any kind of weapon you put in front of him. He saw me kill our own mother.
*Flashback*
We wait silently in my closet where mom told us to stay hidden. I try to step outside but Caleb is clutching my arm.
"Caleb I got to go help mo..." I get interrupted by an ear piercing shriek. Tears began to form in my eyes.
"If I don't come back in 5 minutes don't come out here" I hand him a gun. "Shoot for the head okay?"
"But...what if....your...." he says.
"I will not die. I will come back for you and protect you with my life." He nods and I get out grabbing my knife to pull it out. I cautiously go downstairs and find my best friend Hailey biting a chunk of my mom's neck. I break down into tears and struggle to stand up. Why her? She didn't deserve this!! Hailey turns to me and begins to stagger towards my way. Her eyes that were once blue are now yellow and she has a scratch on her arm. I stand up and pull out my back up gun and point at her head. "I'll miss you. I love you Hailey." The gun goes off and she collapses on the floor. I run to my mom who is lying on the living room floor lifeless. I pull her head on my lap and I fix her hair. "Mommy? Mommy please say this is some kind of cruel joke. You can't be dead Mommy. I need you. Caleb needs you. Please Mommy wake up." There is no response to my pleads so I get up and walk up the stairs to my room. " Caleb we have to get out of here. Grab your backpack and start packing." My closet door creaks and Caleb comes out slowly.
" Where's Mommy? Is she.....dead?"
"Caleb you need to be strong. She will always love us and watch over us."
" She's dead isn't she?" He begins to cry and drops to his knees. I walk over to him and help him up.
" I need you to pack some clothes and anything useful. Okay?" We cry for about 10 minutes and then begin to start packing. We make our way to the kitchen to pack food, water, flashlights, batteries, knives and guns. We have always had loads of guns and knives. I hear Caleb scream and look back to find him in the living room. He looks my way and points towards the living room. I grab my gun and run to the living room.
"W..W...Why is Mommy eating Geo?!"
"Caleb she isn't Mommy anymore Mommy is d..d..dead." The walker that used to be my mother groans and limps our way. " Caleb I need you to close your eyes and cover your ears." I point my gun to my own mothers forehead. "I will always love you forever and always Mommy." BAM! The gun goes of and Caleb opens his eyes to see our mother on the floor. He runs and begins to say sorry and hugging her. I had just killed one of the most important people in my life. My mother.
*End of Flashback*
I look around and find clothes that would fit me and Caleb. So far we have been with a group for a year with a group and survived 2 years alone. I quickly grab my knife as I hear groans coming from the aisle to my left. Carefully I walk around to come face to face with a walker that reeks of death. I plunge my knife in it's head and the thing falls on me. I push it off and away from me then I stand up and walk to where Caleb told me he was going to be.
"Caleb? You there?"
I look in the aisles and there is no trace of him. When I look in the last aisle I begin to panic because all he left behind was his bag. All the supplies he had gathered are scattered on the floor. Footsteps begin to approach and I hide behind a big toy house.
"Looks like the boy is alone," a man with a crossbow says.
"She's gonna kick your ass," Caleb says back.
"Who is little man? Wonder Woman or maybe your imaginary friend?"the crossbow guy says. I take my gun out of my holster and try to look and sound as tough as I can.
"No, I am," I say to Mr.Crossbow and he turns around to be met with my gun against his forehead."Let my brother go or I'll shoot you." I threatened him.
"Not gonna happen. He has all the supplies my group needs." Crossbow says.
"To bad cause they are his. Now fuck off or I'll make you"
"You wouldn't dare" he challenges me. I point my gun to his foot and shoot which causes him to fall on the ground.
"BITCH YOU BETTER RUN OR I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!"
I grab Caleb and his bad and we begin to run until Caleb stops in his tracks.
What's wrong? We got to go.
He doesn't even answer me before he falls to the ground and see why he had stopped in his tracks. He had been shot with a bow penetrating his back. I help him up and he is going weaker every second. We get out of the store and the group's car drives away. They left us. How could they have left us.
T...they're gone Jordan
We need a place to stay.
Down the block I saw a house. Left head over there....Ow it stings like a bitch
Watch the mouth
I help him until we get to the house. It's a big blue and white fancy house that must have chandeliers on the ceiling. We go in and my instinct is to check out every room.
Don't worry ... I .. I checked everything
I need a first aid kit. Here sit on the couch. I'll be right back.
I grab the first aid kit and begin to clean all the blood that's on his back. I give him his pjs and we eat a couple of snacks that are around the house.
When's the last time you were with a boy?
I'm a virgin. I haven't been with a boy. Why would you ask?
Because Ethan and you were very close so I thought maybe you guys were together.
We were just friends
Oh
Remember Arlene? Yeah she was annoying as hell.
No she had a crush on you.
Anyway I'm tired can we just go to sleep
Yeah I'll get some blankets
And pillows
Ok
I get the blankets and we set them up so we could sleep. As soon as my head touches the pillow I fall into a dark and deep dream.
