The End Of The World

Vanessa POV

I sit there going through thoughts thinking how the the world went so bad. Holding my knife sitting on top of the roof of a old house I think back to how I managed to escape that day. When I was back with Grandma,my four other siblings,Dad, and mom. My mind freezes on Mom. How that word means someone who cares about you and someone who would never leave you, well that's not the case. How I despise that word now. The day we escaped I saw my siblings and my Grandma get torn away from me and torn to bits. My dad and mom grabbed me and grabbed the 2 dogs and 3 horses but my mom she is the one that destroyed everything. My dad was telling us what to do while saddling the horses and getting the dogs. Then mom grabbed Scottie and got on his back and ran out of the barn. "MOM WAIT COME BACK!" I shouted as she galloped away. Then the dead broke through the door and dad threw me on top of Storm and he grabbed the guns and jumped on top of Alex. He whistled to the dogs and we ran out with the horses and the dogs while avoiding the dead. I looked back one last time and saw the rest of my family dead on the ground and I turned away and ran after dad. "Vanessa come on we are good here for checking this place" Dad said while saddling up the horses and throwing a piece of food to each dog. I shook my head I was beginning to return back to the real world. I climbed off of the roof then landed next to dad. "Are you ready to go?" dad asked. "Yeah let's go" I jumped on top of Storm then called Roxie our German Shepard over she looked hunkered down almost scared. I then tried to calm her down and then she was fine but it was still weird. Then there was some Growling and me and dad flung around and didn't shoot it he said that would cause way too much attention so we had to start mastering getting them in the head with knifes. Dad jumped off the horse then looked at me "Vanessa you need to do this it's your turn" I look at him from under my hood then get off Storm and hit it in the head. I still wasn't used to doing all this but at the same time I enjoyed getting rid of those creatures. "We should start calling them something" my dad said. I kept looking down "what should we call them then"I replied. "Walker We will stick with that" dad said. I nodded But my mind was somewhere else. The thought stayed with me about my mom. I clenched my fist, if I ever see my mom again she will be dead I could never forgive her for leaving her family to the dead.
