We get outside and the moon shines our path. It's pretty cool out. I can see my breath in the thin cold air.
"Where do we go now?' I finally manage to say.
"I don't know. All I know is we need to get away from here or we'll be eaten alive." He sounds so serious. He keeps a serious look as well.
..after about an hour of walking..
I look off into the distance and see an old shack. Maybe it's sturdy enough and we could hide out for the night. I take lead and head over to the shack clearing it out to make sure it's safe.
"What are you doing?" You can hear the curiosity in his voice.
"Finding a place to hid out til day comes. What else?"
"Right. Yeah, probably a good idea."
We get up to the shack. He helps me search it for anything useful. I find a flashlight and a four pack of batteries. This will last a little bit. Lane finds a small door. He walks through cautiously and finds a whole stock of food and even water. This is too good to be true.
We clear the shack out.
"This can be another place to go if we need some where to temporarily stay." I suggest. We set up camp here for the night. We have a lantern hung up with the light dim. We don't need much attention drawn to us. We find a way to shut the doors to it and baracade them so no person or thing will try to get in on us.
I lay out a sleeping bag and Lane does the same. We lay down as we get ready for the night.
My eyelids grow heavy and soon close.
..after a couple hours of sleep..
My eyes flash open. I here something.
scratch.. scratch..... scuttle...
Zombie? No it can't be. I'd hear some groaning. I look over and see a mouse right in front of my face. I scream.
Lane quickly wakes and runs over covering my mouth.
"Shut up or you'll get us killed!!" He whisper yells. He slowly takes his hand from my face.
We hear a distant groan. Oh now I've done it.
"Oh now you've done it.." He trails off. I roll my eyes. We quietly unbaracade the doors and look out. Three zombies wonder about 50 yards ahead. I see a quick shadow run.
What the fuck?
The zombies quickly chase it. I run out curious.
"What the HELL are you doing?!" Lane chases after me as i run after the zombies and mysterious figure.
"That could be a person!" I whisper yell back, "Now shush!" I keep my stride going, my pistol to my side. Lane quickly follows behind. We catch up to see a person tackled and calling out.
"HELP! SOMEONE PLEASE! HELP!" We gotta move fast or we'll have a horde of zombies hot on our tail. I shoot the zombies around. The person quickly gets up and looks around. They look over to us.
I hurry over to make sure they are okay, whoever 'they' are.
"Hello, sir, are you okay?" I greet the person I just saved. Before I can react he grabs me by the shoulders staring at me for a second then pulls me into a hug and holds me tight. Thinking it's just an emotional reaction to the situation I obviously hug back. "Are you okay?"
"Jean!! It's you!! It's really you!!!" By this time the person is crying, but I recognize the voice. When I do, my eyes widen with shock. I become overwhelmed and cry as well.
