I sat up in my bed and the sheets fell to my stomach. I closed my eyes and breathed.

It's hard to believe this reality. I feel like I'm dreaming.. or in a movie.

Today's the day I have to go on my way to who knows where. Anywhere but here.

I think I'll be fine considering I'm the type of girl who never gives up. And I'm not very fearful, I might be scared to do something at first; but I eventually do it.

I got out of bed and ate a granola bar slowly enjoying the taste. It would be my last time sitting down, and relaxing without having to watch my back.

The chocolate melted on my tongue and the granola mixed with the taste.

I finished the last bite and stood up from my chair. I walked to the bathroom being careful not to trip on anything. It was pretty dim in the room, my only light source was a crack of the curtains.

I opened the cabinet and pulled out everything.

Tooth brush, toothpaste, lotion, soap, tylenol and all of the medicine in my cabinet.

I grabbed my camouflage hunting backpack and pushed the stuff into it.

I strolled into the big room acting mopey and flopped on my bed. I picked up my pillow and breathed in the laundry scent. I dropped the pillow down and sighed.

I got up and looked at my nightstand. It held a picture of me and Autumn when we were at the beach on our high school trip to the Hawaii.

A tear slide down my cheek as I picked it up. I kissed the picture and stroked the bobble head hula girl making it shake.

I sat on her bed a laid my head down. My nose filled with the scent of her pineapple mango shampoo she always used. I wrapped into her pillow.

When I stood up after sobbing I walked to the door where my dresser was.

Did I say why I barricaded the door?

Well, when the apocalypse started, these two body's from my collage went sicko and started a shooting rampage. The police came and thought the collage were planning an attack so tried arresting and/or killing everyone here.

So, I hid.

I opened the drawer and took out the most comfortable and warm clothing I had.

I packed all my underwear and socks and a pack of pony tails.

I put on my camouflage jacket and black jeans then finished off by putting my dark brown leather jacket overtop. My hair was naturally curly and poofy so pony tails were a must.

The reason why I have all the camouflage is because I am a hunter. My dad and I hunted all the time until I left to collage. Although even though I took my hinting out fit, I didn't bring a gun. It would've been a good idea.

I went to my jewelry box and took my necklace out of the small thing.

It was shaped as a heart and opened up relieving a picture of my mom and my dad.

I don't really know where they are, or if they're still alive. That breaks my heart.

I walked over to my front door of the dorm, and put on my black, almost brown combat boots.

With all of my supplies in my hands and on my back I think.

I'm going to need weapons obviously, not just a dull knife. Then I'm going to need water.

I'd say at least almost half of the worlds population is whipped out maybe more. I'm pretty sure this university is whipped out too.

I nod trying to grow courage and I look back at my place. I kiss my hand and push it on the wall as if it left a piece of my heart with my room. I miss it and I'm not even gone yet. T might have been my home for a year and a half but it's my home.

I push past the dresser and look threw the peep hole,

"Oh my god! What was that?" I say frantically in a whisper-yell voice. Something dark took up half the hole but it pulled away fast. I couldn't make out what is was.

I look again but I don't see anything so I think I'm good.

I unlock the door.

Click.

Oh god.

Here I come world you better watch your ass. Arianna is coming for you!

Ok.. That sounded a lot better in my head.

My adrenalin was rushing threw my body in high impact. I pull away the chain lock and check the hole again just to be certain. Now there is nothing.

I twist the door nob. My hands are really sweating making it worse. My tongue is dry.

The door nob stops turning showing that it is unlatched.

I hold my dull knife with my left hand and point it in front of me.

I push the door open.

Hey guys! I know that was a very short chapter, I want to begin my best one with her leaving the dorm! Hope you're enjoying my book so far.

Please comment your thoughts or questions, or anything! No hate please I'm trying my best.

When you read the book I guess try to image the scenery and zombies from he walking dead. That's what I'm doing. If you don't watch the walking dead... STOP WHAT YOUR DOING AND GO WATCH IT RIGHT NOW! It's pretty amazing.

I made this book because I love the walking dead but I want to make the same idea (ish) about it but with romance. I love romantic/dramatic books and shows with a action and adventure. So if you have the same taste I suggest reading this book. Enjoy and pleeeaaassseee comment feedback or any grammar mistakes. Thank you!

Love, kitkatjfc
