Chapter 1 - Close Call

Sup guys! WishForShips here. How this is gonna go is I write this chapter, then Asher writes the next chapter, and I write the next, so on, so on! So, please enjoy the first chapter of our Walking Dead Apocalypse story! :)

"Holy shit, Akira, get out of there!" Tara Nason screeched, her greasy brown hair flying up everywhere as the gritty wind blew through it. She scrunched her brown eyes up against the dirt and gripped her .22 caliber ever tighter, lifting it up to aim and send lead bullet straight through nearby Walker's heads. "Akira, come on!"

"Sorry!" The raven called back, cleaning chopping off a few nearing Walkers with her rusty hatchet quickly before turning away and running straight towards the gasping brunette. "Come on, let's get out of here!"

"Do you have the meds?" Tara rushed, joining Akira at a steady sprint as they darted down the dirty sidewalk and avoided dead Walker's bodies while they were at it.

Akira Leith smiled brightly and patted the bloody blue backpack resting on her shoulders. "Sure do. Painkillers, ointment, band-aids, gauze, you name it, I've got it."

"Sweet." Tara grinned back, tucking her loaded gun into her back pocket of her ripped up jeans. "I've got canned food in mine; peaches, some beans, and I think I even saw corn."

"We hit the jackpot, T!" The Asian grinned, reaching over to high-five the Kiwi before they heard a loud bang and lots of screaming by the nearby Wal-Mart. Tara froze, her brown eyebrows quirking up in a mix of confusion and worry.

"What was that?"

Akira stopped too, and both girls struggled to catch their breath. "I... I'm not too sure. It sort of sounded like an explosion?"

"But why would they have TNT or c4?" The brunette wondered out loud, popping a hip out comfortably as she shoved a hand in her pocket stiffly. "Doesn't make sense."

"No, it doesn't."

"Should we go check it out?"

"Of course, Ms. Nason over here always looking for more adventure!" Akira rolled her eyes, flipping her hair sassily as she pushed her cracked glasses up her nose more.

"Duh!" Tara giggled, eyes lighting up with glee as she started to leisurely walk the basic path to the Wal-Mart where they heard the explosion and screams. "It makes my life interesting. I like it."

"Never asked if I liked it." Akira mumbled traitorously, sticking her tongue out at the walking figure before jogging after her to catch up.

"Shut up, you Asian!"

"You're gonna get it, Kiwi!"

"Ooh, I'm so scared!" There was a thump. "OW! SHIT AKIRA GET OFF ME GOD!"

Giggles. "Told ya."

"Ya bitch."

"Love ya too, T."

"Get away from me, weirdo."

Now the next chappie will be written by Asher_64! :) Look forward to it!!!
