Zombie Days

Chapter 9: Gas Station Gorilla

Might just be in Kyra's point of view until I feel like changing it up.

---------------

Kyra's World:

      I woke everyone up telling them to use the bathroom or gather supplies. I left Kyler in charge of watching the van. Seemed he had enough trust worthiness to leave him. I walk into the bathroom with Olivia. We both look in the mirror and Olivia lets out a sad groan of anger seeing her hair. "This took 3 hours to get done." She touches her ratty dark brown hair. She opens her mouth looking at her gap, "This thing will never close up." she sighs. "Use the bathroom while you can." I say turning on the sink. I sputters then finally lets out some brownish water. "After this the facilities everywhere will be shut down." I say as I start washing my face, this was better than nothing.  I take out a water bottle and fill it with the brownish water, I pour some in my dehydrated mouth, gurgle it then spit it out and refill the bottle closing the cap.

      Olivia lets out a horrid scream then covers her mouth walking back she leans on the wall eyes wide and body shaking. Leaning on it she pukes up her breakfast, soon it turns into clear vomit. "HEY! DONT PUKE!" I scream "You're wasting your fluids!" I say I rub her back as she regains her posture wiping her mouth. My eyes catch the thing Olivia screamed at. It took all my might not to throw up like her. A little girl with a arrow through her head coming out her eye socket, her ripped eye on the end, flys buzzing in and out of her carcass, dog bites, bugs crawling all over her. I gag into my hand, she was using the bathroom so her pants were down. I turn around biting hard into my hoodie closing my eyes. It had only been 5 days and something as gross as this has already happened. I slowly close the stall door and open a new one shaking, I try to stop but I couldn't,  that image was going to be with me forever. 

      Olivia goes into the stall door closing it nervously. "I-I'll stay here." I say leaning against the stall. Olivia goes quiet, "Cover your ears." she says, "Why?" I ask, "I don't want you to hear my pee sounds!" she yells defensively.  I cover my ears and she proceeds. I uncover them a couple seconds later. "Uhh Umm Kyra." she says. "Yes." I answer crossing my arms, "Theres cameras in the stall." she says. "Probably normal. They should be dead." I answer truthfully shrugging. She opens the stall door washing her hands in the brown water. "I guess...." she trails off. She turns it off after washing her face.

      The doors of the gas station market open, an inviting electronic gorilla sound following. "Is that normal?" I ask, Olivia shamefully nods. "Cool." I say looking around, Sarah and Sebastian were throwing food in there bags like no tomorrow, sodas, chips, candy all kinds of things. Taking hold of my backpack I grab some donuts and all can things that could fit. Olivia happily grabs cheetoh bags from left to right, and those starbucks coffees. Walking to the cash register I slam my fist down on it and it pops opens, cash, blood, and coins entering my view. I greedily put it in my bag smirking. Who knows when ill need this. Sarah stands next to me looking at all the cigarettes behind me. "My mom used to smoke this brand." She says reaching up and taking a pack off the shelf, she sadly looks at it.

      "Smells just like my house." she takes a wiff of the package, "Put that down its bad for your lungs." I say spotting her. She looks at me mouth gapped, She starts slamming handfuls of the packs of cigarettes into her bag surprising me. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" I say angrily. "I need something to remember my mom by!" she says tearing up. "Buy condoms or something then!" I say.  She stops after the cigarettes were all gone. "I would rather not remember my dad." she says. I turn away from her, daddy issues I guess. I grab a couple mints pushing them into my backpack. I look at the Sebastian kid, "Go to the van and check on Kyler." I say. He nods determinedly and exits the door opening and making the gorilla sounds again. I stare at the blood stains on the ground, someone, or something was in here. I just wondered where.

      After getting some toilet paper packs I hear the door open. Sebastian runs in, "KYLERS GONE!!!" he screams eyes wide. I look at him and the panick sets in "IS THE VAN STILL THERE!" I yell. He nods and I calm down, "Okay. Cool." I say I open a bottle of pepsi and chug it down happily, licking my lips and savoring the sweet taste. It was warm, but still ventilated well. I drop the bottle, "Sebastian stay outside and watch the van, don't tell Sarah or Olivia he's missing. We MIGHT just get away with leaving him here." I say. He thinks for a second his eyebrows showing hes worried but he soon nods and walks to the van. I look at Olivia and Sarah who didn't hear the yelling, talking and sipping Rootbeer, and sprite sharing a bag of chips. If i wasnt in the middle of a zombie apocalypse this sight would've been the most normal sight in my life, almost a happy sight. But it really wasn't, to me at least.

      I lean against the coolers which had already broken down Digging in my bag, I pull out a pic of my little brother looking at it. I smile and shove it back in. Hoepfully no troubles arose today.
