Forgotten Memories

Chapter 12

We head down the body-litered road into a new town just twenty miles from North Carolina. Jeremy brings the old truck to a stop right infront of a huge shopping center. I climb out and the others pile out as well. Dan stands in the center of us. "Okay, so here we can get pretty much everything we need. Since the infection broke out the day it opened, no one really had a chance to get in it. We need everyone to play part in this. There are seperate centers for pretty much whatever we need. I will pair you all up and then give you items to get." He says looking at us. Then he proceeds to pair everyone up. When it's just me, Dan, and Lisa left, I get an idea. "Dan, do you think I could run in and get food? I'm quick on my feet, that way you and Lisa can go get other things." Dan looks at Lisa for a second. She nods at him but concern lingers in her eyes. "Okay Melody, just be careful. Now, everyone get your items and meet back here as soon as you can." Dan says and everyone is off.

I run towards the bright orange grocery center. It seems safe enough... I think to myself as I walk into the newly-build store. I first run towards the canned goods and start dumping them into the shopping cart. Once I think I have plenty of canned goods, just about a whole cart, I head towards the kitchen supplies and grab a can opener and some knifes. Just kitchen knifes, but they're better than nothing... I think as I set them in the cart. I hear a biter dragging itself along the tile, I turn, and swiftly stab it in the head. That's when a large shelf knocks over and the sound of biters groaning overwhelm mysenses. I grab the cart and run as fast as I can out of the grocery center.

A.N. Another short chapter, I know. It is starting to get good :3 There is only 2 more chapters left! ;_; Don't worry though, it will be special and unexpected; trust me ;D
