*Thalia's POV*

Great. My family is dead. What now? Think, Thalia, think. This is real....its really happening....its not a movie... its really....the zombie apocalypse...its real.

This morning, it was normal. Until there was banging on the front door. My normally drunk and abusive dad just HAD to open the door. He's such a dumbass. But at least I don't have to put up with his "lessons" anymore. It was actually entertaining to see his face get eaten off.

I grabbed as many knives as I could. I went into my dad's gun closet and grabbed the most effective one of them all: the shot gun. My brother, Dylan, got it for me, but then my dumbass of a father hid it from me. Maybe because he was afraid that I would shoot him in the fucking gut, which I would have.

I ran out of the back door once I had put some decent zombie killing clothes. They were everywhere. Slow and disgusting looking. Just like the movies. All of a sudden, they stopped and turned in my direction. Lucky me there were only a few, but I kind of underestimated their speed. They like full on SPRINTED towards me. I screamed and scrambled to grab a knife. They were gaining on me. I felt my eyes grow wide as a blur sent all of the zombies to the ground, their heads clean off. Not far from me, there was a figure. They were dressed in red pants and a blue and white striped shirt. They stood up and I could clearly tell that they had a samurai sword in their hand. The person turned and my heart practially stopped. It was a... GUY who had saved my ass from getting eaten alive. He walked up to me after putting the blood stained sword back into its sheath. "Are you okay?" he asked. This guy had blue eyes and brown hair. He looked familiar but with all of these zombies running around, it was hard to keep track. "I'm Louis," he said, holding out a gloved hand. I shook it quickly and replied, "Thalia. I could have handled it by myself." Louis rolled his eyes, a smirk tugging at his lips. "I bet if I hadn't come and saved your ass, then you'd be another target for me." I nodded in agreement. "Thanks," I muttered. Then I kicked one of the zombies off my shot gun, which I had dropped due to the zombies trying to eat my ass.

"Thalia?" Louis asked.

"Yeah, Louis?"

"Do you ever wonder if any of your friends are still alive?" he answered.

I looked at him and replied, "Mm... Maybe. I know Cheyenne is still out there. She's a strong girl, so she'll be fine for a while. What about you?"

Louis sighed. "My bandmates and I got separated. I've been looking for them since 3:30 this morning, when all of this shit started."

"Bandmates?"

"Yeah, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan, and Zayn Malik."

"Ohhhhh so you're in One Direction. No wonder you looked so god damn familiar."

"Why does that surprise you?" he asked.

"Because I didn't expect a boyband like One Direction to be bad ass enough to be slaying zombies," I said matter-of-factly.

"Oh."

"Now let's go find our friends."
