"Haww" I yawned as I wake up stretching my arms as far as they could go. I noticed that it was still dark outside, but it might have been the windows. I opened the car door quietly and looked out. It was not nighttime it was just cloudy and looked like it was gonna storm... Badly. I closed the door again and packed up my stuff. "Well might as well give it a try." I said to myself hopping into the drivers seat. I searched for the keys and found them on the floor. "Here goes nothing I said jamming the key into the ignition, I twisted them and heard only rumbles and screeching. "Ugh piece of shit."
I got out of the car and opened the hood to see if I could figure out the problem. As I opened the hood a huge wave of awful smells started to hit me. I open the hood all the way revealing a bloody ripped up arm caught in the engine. Flies were all over it and the smell made me want to throw up. I walked over to the woods and picked up a stick, walking back over to the car with it. I lifted up the pieces of the arm with the sick and threw them into the woods. When they were all gone I threw the stick into the woods as well and I slammed the hood shut and went back to the drivers seat trying to start it again. Luckily it worked this time! I gathered up my bag and weapons and put them into the passengers seat. I started driving and singing. I was on my way to find some sort of camp to bunk with because I can't handle being alone anymore.
I never have any food and I need someone to help me when I get sick so I need people. I don't necessarily want people.. But I need them.

I have been driving for about 30 minutes and I have about ten more to go until this car is out of gas. Looking out of the windshield at the clouds I can tell it's gonna get nasty. I decided to speed up a little bit to get farther faster but suddenly the clear windshield I had once had was now being covered in rain water. I stopped the car and got out opening my mouth as it started to pour. I ran back to the car trying to find something to catch the water so I can drink later. I started searching in the trunk and under the seats till I found a small gatorade bottle. "Yes!" I smiled. I set the bottle on the concrete and sat in the car waiting for it to become full before I started the car and drove again.

The rain is heavier now and it started to lightning.
"It's raining, it's pouring, an old man is snoring, he fell out of bed he bumped his head and he couldn't get up in the morning!" I laughed. The car came to an abrupt stop and I look at the fuel tank. I sighed. "Looks like I am going to have to walk now." I said picking up my bag, katana and gun. I opened up the car door and started walking off into the woods. My whole body was soaked and I was freezing. "Come on Marley you're almost there." I said to myself. Okay I have been lying to myself this whole time. Im not heading anywhere I'm just trying to live. And by motivating myself I make it. My body was getting tired of walking and being wet so I sat down. The rain started coning down even more and the wind started to pick up. "You got to keep going." I said as I stood up. I tried to walk but my legs gave out and I fell to the ground. My vision was getting blurry but I swore I saw a tall dark figure right above me before I passed out.
