Rising of the Dead

Chapter 13: Separate Ways

Chapter 13: Separate Ways

Character: Sawyer Wilson

When i woke up the sun is up and the big tree Carrie and I leaning on is blocking its rays.

The surrounding is calm and peaceful, birds chirping as we lie on the hard cold ground, i noticed the awful rotting smell, i knew something or someone is rotting really bad.

In this kind of environment, you wouldn't notice the smell, seeing a dead person on the ground is now normal, seeing blood guts and guns is now normal, now everyday living.

I realised that carrie was leaning on my shoulder cuddled up against me.

I felt the warmth as she moves, making her self comfy.

"Carrie" i whispered

She flinched and got up slowly and stretched her skinny arms in the air while yawning.

I smiled at her and she smiled back, her blond dirty hair shines like a diamond as the sun hits it, it glows like gold and flows like a river.

"Long day we gonna have." She said. "You better get up now captain"

I got up and stretched up arms quickly and picked the bag of guns. I look at my left. I felt my hand touch my nose. It was Adrian's body, he turned all black over night, his face is swollen, he looks terrible, i felt the sadness "poor soldier" i said

"Hes a young soldier" Carrie said walking towards the body and stared at it.

"How old is he? Like 14? Like us?"

"16"

"Oh wow"

"Do you want to bury him?" She looked at me

"Its ok. We have to move on, his body will be a warning for everyone".

She walked away and i ran to her. Attempting to hold her hand.

"Where we going?" She asked

"Look for A way to go down there"

****

5 minutes of walking going down hill.

The environment felt weird as we go down .

"Do you feel like something bad is gonna happen?" I said

"Yes. I kinda ... INFECTED!!" She pointed as soon as she finished the sentence. She pointed at the bag and i responded by putting the bag down, opened it and thew the hatchet to her . She caught it successfully. Next is a small SMG i put the gun down on the ground and slide it off toward her. She reloaded the gun and put the gun on fire mode.

I pulled out the shotgun and took the ammo box and put a few in my pocket. I got more than 10 buckets for the shotgun. I took my bowie knife

*bang bang bang* a few gun shots filled the whole place. The place is over run by infected. Too many for us to handle..

"HELP ME" Carrie shouted as loud as she can. An infected grabbed her about to bite her, im too far away to save her, in a flash seconds.. The infected dropped dead revealing man that killed the infected. I couldnt see the mans face but i saw Carrie got up and hugged him.

Scenario change: Character : Jaidyn Watson

It's still dark, Lindley is already up and i could hear her footsteps every time her foot hits the ground.

I'm still lying on the grass that was wet before i lie on it, now its dry and warm.

The fire burns out slowly and dying slowly with faint crackling sounds thats hardly to notice in noisy areas.

I got up and wiped my eyes off trying to take all the dirt off my face. Assuming there was there but there was none.

I saw Lindley walking toward a large tree and quickly climb on it without falling. She climbed fast and in few seconds shes already top of the tree

"What the hell you doing there Lind?!" I said

"Making a spear for fishing, we need to eat before we take off" she said looking down.

She grabbed a few of branches that seems finely strong and large, light to carry.

She chuck the branches down and she jumped off the tree and she somersault as soon as she hits the ground and taps her shoulder and thigh a few times taking the dirt off.

Im still in my small blanket i got in Walmart few days ago when we found Lindley i took a blanket. Luckily i got it with me at all times.

I stood not that far away from Lindley, wrapping my self with my blanket while watching her work quietly. She took the small knife that she has and made the branch into sharp pointy spears that could stab a fish.

"Have you ever done spear fishing before?" She asked while still working

"Um, no" i said

She stopped and looked me raising her eye brows.

"Well.." She continues "you don't have to help me, you're gonna scare the fish"

I nod and stared at her for the whole time. Looking amused at what shes doing. She stood up and jumped in the water slowly expecting the water carrying the spear that she just made.

A few seconds later she dragged at spear down in a speed of light and she pulled the spear out of the water, a fish twitching around in the spear.

Lindley looked at me and smiled, walking slowly towards me carrying the fish.

"We need more" she winked. I smiled back.

A few minutes later, she caught more than 5 fish .

"Ok thats enough we need to find Sawyer."

We sat down in between in each other as she light the fire up once again. He took one of the spear that she made smaller than the ones that she used to spear the fish.

She put the fish in the fire and the fish stars cooking and as soon as she noticed that its cooked, she took a bite and ate the whole fish without any left overs except fish bones.

Thats our breakfast. It was tasty. Fish are good and i've never tasted a fish like this before. In these times its rare to find a food like these, the supplies are running out slowly. Especially these things are happening.

Lindley stood up and looked around

"THERE! WAY UP! She pointed to a road that leads up and slowly fades because of clouds that covers it.

****** ***** ***

We reached the top of the cliff we heard a scream coming from no where. Sounds like a girl asking for help.

Lindley ran, following the voice, suddenly she stopped.

"Sawyer and Carrie" she pointed

I ran towards Carrie as she screamed "HELP ME" i quickly grabbed the infecteds neck and stabs its head as quickly as i could.

Carrie just was just standing and quickly ran towards me and hugged me, i am unaware of that.

Lindley caught up and i saw Sawyer standing looking pointing towards me

"WHO ARE YOU?!?!" He said in rage.
