After YouTube Part 10: Mushrooms

Taylor gave the truck gas while me and Jess looked around for supplies. I also tried making conversation...it was very awkward. "So what are your guys names?" Taylor asked while wiping oil on his shirt. "Liz" I said quickly, I just wanted this awkwardness to end. "And I'm guessing your name is Jessica" I looked at him,how did her know? He pointed at Jess's necklace that had a heart with her name engraved in it. "Pfft" Jess threw a rag at him. We all chuckled, it was nice having some friends during some tragic time. After almost an hour of scavenging and getting to know each other we finally had the truck working. I was glad we had this time to talk,we found out that Taylor was 17 but very immature. Taylor took the wheel,Jess didn't really feel safe having some goof like him driving 2 young girls in a zombie apocalypse, but I convinced her that she's safe. "Hey look!" Jess yelled out, Taylor stopped the truck. Right in front of us was the Golden Gate Bridge. But there was a big gap in the middle as if a meteor dropped. "We can't continue" I said, we all got out of the truck. "What the hell is this?" We heard someone say,Me and Jess looked at Taylor. He shook his head,"there a rebel" Jess whispered. A man in shorts was walking around some mushrooms, he came closer and sniffed them. He fell to the ground,blacked out. I ran to him covering my mouth and nose, his heart wasan't beating and his skin was grey and crummy. I saw what was happening, he was slowly turning into a zombie. The mushrooms infected him. I ran,"Start the truck!" I yelled as loud as I can. "What did she say?" Taylor asked,Jess shrugged. "Start it!" They finally got my message and got inside the truck. I saw the undead rebel open his eyes. I got inside the truck. "Go!" Taylor turned the truck around towards the mushrooms." What are you doing?!" Jess screamed. " oh so you wanna go in the broken bridge?!" She didn't reply. The zombie got up,he was horrifying.Taylor stomped his feet on the pedal,we ran over the monster with blood on the windows. We were all pooped out from running and screaming. Then something popped in my brain. The mushrooms....the brown spots, they were the same mushrooms my mom and my aunt grew on the farm...we were the ones who started the the zombie infection.
