Girl Vs. Apocalypse

Unexpected Reunions.

~~~~~Jamie~~~~~~

I could barely make out my surroundings with this bag on my head. I had been working on counting turns, to keep myself distracted from my kidnappers. They don't seem to be in league with Malachi. Which is good.

I heard footsteps approach the chair I was in, and rip the bag off my head, classic villain style. I gasped at the bright florescence of the room. The walls were starch white, not a single window or framed photo. The room we were in seemed to stretch for yards, making it look even longer by the naked bulbs that hung limply on cords in the center of the ceilings, all lined up in perfect rows. One of the men came and crouched down to be at eye level with me.

"Don't worry we're not going to hurt you." He said in a way that made me not believe him. I spat in his face.

"Charming." He mumbled, wiping my spit off his face. I grinned.

"What do you even need me for?" I asked, my voice hoarse.

"Trade." Said another man. His voice gruff.

"Trade for what?" I asked suddenly curious. They also missed the swiss army knife I kept hidden in my shirt sleeve. The longer I kept them talking, he faster I could escape.

"Well." He began tucking a finger under my chin as he forced me to look up at him. I locked eyes with him. He smiled showing his disgusting teeth I had to swallow to keep from puking. "We need a pretty little lass like you to trade for some food items and such." He said

My knife was almost through the rope by now. "Oh and why does this include me?" I felt the release of the rough rope from my wrists i almost sighed in relief. I gripped the knife tighter, ready to fight my way out.But he couldn't know that.

He thought for a moment. 'You're a trade to Malichi. He offered us enough food to make it through the next few years." He said finally smiling his black toothed grin.

I shuddered. But I released the rope from behind my back and stabbed the man in the eye. He screamed before falling into a pool of blood. Reaching down I took his gun and checked the clip. There was just enough to get me out of here.

~~~~~~Oliver~~~~~~

I've been trudging through the woods for hours now looking for Jamie I went through the directions the man told me before I killed him. Not really directions but more like.....turns. Lots of turns.

"This is stupid" I muttered as I stepped in a pile of poop. Wait not poop it was a walker. And it was still alive. Well kind of alive.

"Oh boy." I said before stepping on him. His skull crushing under the weight of my foot.

"Impressive." Sounded a voice in the distance. I whipped the gun around to face the voice. A girl emerged holding a cross bow.

"We could use a guy like you at our camp." She said looking me up and down before winking.

"I'm looking for my girlfriend. Sorry I cant join your camp." I said flatly never lowering the gun from her head.

She clicked her tongue. "What a shame." She said, her voice uneasily calm and unwavering.

"Maybe we'll take you back up on your offer." I offered before a single arrow was shot next to my head. "Or maybe not." I said before breaking into a full sprint. I could hear yelling behind me as arrows whizzed by.

"Shit." I yelled as one hit the tree right next to me. I pushed myself to go faster. The arrows slowly began to diminish and before I knew it I was outside of a building. I pushed open the door, only to find Jamie standing there holding a gun pointed strait at my face.

"Oh my God. Oliver."

~Jamie, while Oliver was talking to that chick~

My breathing echoed off the empty walls as I heard the echoes of people around me.

"She's over there." Followed by a shower of bullets. I aimed over the barrel I was behind and shot. I took down one man before I began running again.

"This is so dumb." I said to myself before turning a corner only to be met with Queen bitch herself.

She was tall with dark hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a casual blue jeans and tennis shoes with a flannel. I knew her eye color because, well, she was staring straight at me as I stared her down also.

"Who's gonna fire first?" She asked, her finger inching closer to the trigger. I heard a shot. Instinctively I dropped my gun and held my eyes shut. After a couple seconds, I realized I wasn't dying, and opened my eyes.

There standing above tall, dark, and crazy was a man. He looked at me before cocking his gun and turning away. I made a dash to the door and opened it. Preparing to be met with a goon I hold the door and draw my gun, then pull it open.

I looked at him in shock and lowered the gun.

"Oh my God. Oliver." I said before throwing my arms around him. He hugged back instantly.

"How'd you get here?" I asked before pulling away. He chuckled.

"Honestly I just ran like hell. There was some chick chasing me down with a bow. She asked me to join her village. Also I think she was hitting on me." I said making sure to emphasize on the flirting aspect.

"Oh that's nice." She said back deep in thought.

"Why'd they take you, Jamie?" I asked he as she continued spacing.

"I have no clue, they said they wanted to trade me to Malachi for weapons and stuff. I'm not sure." She whispered. "But we need to find him. He has info on my mom. And he killed Alex."

"Let's find somewhere to set up camp and we'll deal with it later." He said grabbing my hand and inspecting my wrists. "Well after I bandage these up. They look pretty bad."

"Okay." I said still trying to figure out what I was going to do.

~~~~~Malachi's POV~~~

I watched them from behind the trees. Martha's daughter and that insufferable boy. I laughed to myself and sunk deeper into the shadows as they walked by. They didn't realize this was a trap. And I was in control.
