The DEAD and the LIVING

My first best friend

I started for the steel doors and out of a beaten down factory. I was looking for some food, but some one took everything that was left. The only thing there was were walkers.

The past time I've been on my own if been sleeping in trees. As I made it to the short oak tree I saw a few bullets lying on the dirt. I had a very curious mind for a seventeen girl. I climbed up the rusty black nails and into a seat that mabey was a dear hunters. As the stars started to twinkle my eyes began to slowly close.

The sun was shining on my light brown, carmel highlighted, wavy hair, there were no birds chirping, and no alarmclocks. As I was siting up I heard a girl screaming for help. For the frist time I was actually going to save someone! I grabbed my pistole that was fully loaded and my knife. When I made it out of the woods the screaming had stopped. Was I to late? Well at least I didn't know girl. As I started to the woods I thought, Why did I want save the girl? I paused thinking about it for a second, then it came to me. Her voice! I exclaimed. Its sounds... Forgiving. I started running towards the walkers with my knife.

I finally cleared the car that they were surrounding. When I opened it up there in side was a dirty blonde headed girl that looked like my age. I was checking her to make sure she wasn't bite, then I was seeing of she was still breathing, and She Was! I started to shake the girl yelling, wake up! I did this again but shaking her even harder and yelling even louder. The girls eyes popped opened and she kicked me out of the car.

As I was falling to the floor I thought, I never should've helped her. When I was on the floor I yelled at her, " Oww!"

As she was about to run she looked at me then stopped. She nealed down beside me and said, " O, My, Gosh! Are you okay? I'm so sorry, I thought you were a walker, you know those dead people that are trying to eat us."

" I know." I exclaimed. " I call them that... too." I was suprised that someone called them the same thing I did.

She continued, " that's so cool we both call them the same thing.

I started to walk off thinking she has her own camp, but the girl stopped me and saying,
"Hey! What up. I was wondering do you have a camp, or shelter?"

"No I don't." I was felling happy because this girl seemed like the sister I've always wanted.

"I have food and water that could lasts us both a week." she said feeling confident.

I smiled a big smile and said," I know were we can find shelter."

Then we both left to a small barn.

Its been four days sience we've met I've told the girl my name but she didn't exactly tell me hers she just said, call me Smi. So I have. While we were eating beans Smi asked me,"Can we be best friends?"

I smiled and said,"As long as I know your real name."

She smiled and said," Emily. Emily is my name."
