The Outbreak (MiniCat)

Chapter 2

Tyler's/Wildcat's POV

I walk through the isles of Walmart, my room mate walking by my side. "Hey Evan, do you have the grocery list?" I ask him. He laughs and pulls a small piece of paper out of his jacket pocket. "Noooooo. I forgot it at the house!" He says sarcastically, waving the paper around in my face. "Give me that, you stupid fuck!" I chuckle, snatching the paper out of his hands and reading it. "Okay! We need milk, so we need to go to the dairy section. I announce as I grab the grocery cart and push it towards our designated area. I bend over to grab the milk when an alarm goes off in the store. "The fuck?" Evan questions to no one in particular. Out of no where, a symphony of groans and screams fill our ears. "What's going on?" I ask myself, grabbing Evan's wrist and dragging him in the opposite direction of the noises. I turn into one of the isle and immediately regret it. A human-like figure stood there, staring at us. It's skin is grey and decaying off of it's body. Its eyes, or should I say eye, is blood-shot and lifeless. It's torn, filthy clothes are drenched in blood, and I can't tell if it belongs to the creature or another person. Evan and I back away slowly before darting towards the exit. We get to the screen doors to see hundreds of those... Things. "W-We can't go out there!" Evan exclaims with wide eyes. "Yeah, we better sta-" I start, but the sound of groans interrupt me. Evan and I both turn to see a horde of the blood-thirsty creatures heading straight for us. "Okay, yeah, we gotta go." I say before grabbing Evan's wrist again and dragging him out the doors. We run as fast as we can, unaware of where to go. "Should we go back home?" Evan asks between pants and ragged breaths. "Y-Yeah, but are we going to be able to run all the way there?" I ask as I duck underneath a stop sign. "Fuck yeah we can! It isn't way too far from here!" Evan assures me, so I simply nod and I keep running. After what seems like forever, Evan and I reach out house. I run to the door and almost fall over trying to stop myself. Evan runs next to me, but he isn't so lucky. When he tried to stop himself, he ended up toppling over into the door. I let out a breathless laugh before unlocking the door and opening it, making Evan fall into the floor with a 'thump'. "Oww." He groans, not bothering to get up. I chuckle and shut the door, locking it back. "That's what you get for not slowing down, you stupid shit." I laugh as I pull him up off of the ground. "C'mon, help me board everything up." I say before letting go of him. He stumbles a little, but managed to regain his balance. We both walk into the kitchen and grab some chairs. We carry them over to the door and carelessly toss them onto the ground in front of it. We do this until there aren't any chairs left in the kitchen. I rest my hands on my hips and look at our work. "Yeah, we're fucked." I joke, looking over at Evan. "Noooo! No we're not! That barricade is beautiful! No one is going to be able to bust that shit down!" Evan yells, making me laugh. "Yeah, unless they were to move the chairs out of the way one at a time." I tease. "No, no, no. They're too stupid for that." Evan says in a goofy voice. I cross my arms an playfully roll my eyes. "Whatever. Grab a weapon or some shit like that so we can defend ourselves when someone does break down that 'barricade'." I say, walking upstairs to my room. "Fuck you!" He calls after me, making me laugh. I roll my eyes again and walk over to my closet. Alright, now where the fuck is it.... Aha! There you are you little shit! I grab my a long, black gun case and open it up. I grab my shot gun and lay it next to me. I look around I my closet until I finally find my shells. "Fuck yes!" I exclaim happily, pulling them out and sitting them next to my gun. I quickly close the closer door and grab my gun and it's ammo. I lay it on my bed and make sure it's loaded and ready to shoot incase some 'zombie' fuck decides to make a surprise appearance. I smile to myself as I lay down on my bed. I wonder what's going to happen next? I hope Evan and I can survive this.
