I had no idea where I was going but a long walk away from that place seemed to be a good idea.
All I had on me was a small dagger like sword that I got for my last birthday, a year after all this bullshit started up. Its been a big help considering my parents, the ones who gave me the dagger are dead or are zombies, who really knows at this point. But I'm still here and thats all that matters.
Today felt warmer than other days, I was already sweating and I was only wearing a tank top and some basketball shorts. After about 20 minutes of walking, I noticed I havent seen a single zombie. Wonder where they all are?
Looking up into the sky I saw a small puff of smoke burst out into the air every few seconds.
Lets go check it out! I said to myself as my feet lead the way.
The forest was now behind me, as my feet cam in contact with cement roads. Standing in the middle of the street I looked to my left, then my right.
Straight ahead of me, I saw the store that went up in flames months ago. Behind me was forest, to my left nothing but road. To my right? A smashed up toyota camry.
Slowly but surely I moved closer towards it. Noticing people were inside, I quickened my pace.
"Hey! Hey! Are you people alright?" I started to ask when I noticed they werent people.
Taking my dagger out of my belt, I waited till each and every one came up to me. Stabbing them in the head each and every time without any problems.
I killed about 5 of them when I heard a low pitched groaning noise come from inside of the car.
"Hello?" I asked as I approached the vehicle, making sure that no zombies were still lurking about.
A hand lunged towards my direction and I noticed that it was Dani, the one from our group buckled up in the back seat of the vehicle.
Shit. Wheres Megan and Dan then? I questioned to myself.
Wait. Why do I even care? I chuckled to myself as I gladly put Dani down out of her misery.
I brushed my hands off of my shirt, then made my way towards the camp.
Oooohhhh they are going to love the story I come up with.
*Megans pov*
My eyes slowly opened from the darkness and different colored light beamed into my eyes. I closed my eyelids once again to shut them out then reopened them to get use to everything.
I heard some stupid loud ass music ringing in my head and crowds of people cheering.
Lifting my head up, I was shocked. I couldnt move. Why couldnt I move? I tried moving my head, my arms and even my pinkie toe and still nothing would move.
The music started to slur as my vision became blurry. What in the world was happening?
I began to feel suffocated. Like I was underwater? I suddenly was trying to gasp for air but my body wouldnt move. I sat there and struggled with myself to move and breath.
God it was the worst feeling ever. I wouldnt wish this upon any of my enemys. This feeling was torchure.
My eyelids and head then began to feel heavy. I didnt have the extra energy to keep them up anymore so I just let go. I felt my chin hit against my chest and my world became dark again.
Slowly my breathing started to come back, I felt electricity egnite in my veins and suddenly without thinking I moved my legs to stand up.
"Megan?" I heard someone call out my name.
"Hello?"
I tried to open my eyes yet again but they stayed shut.
I heard moans and growls echo through one ear then out the other, their voices surrounded me. No matter where my head turned I heard the loud pitch of zombies throughout my head. I couldnt break away from it all.
"Megan?!" Someone shook me awake.
I gasped for air as my body shook violently.
"Cody! Its happening again! Come help me!" The voice called out.
Cody?! Codys here! I tried to stop myself from shaking hut it was no use.
Four arms laid against my arms and legs and tried to hold me still.
After a few minutes my body began to rest again. Yet again I was out of breath and felt like I was drowning.
"Megan, its okay. You'll be okay." I heard a males voice whipser in my ear.
My breathing slowed itself as my eyelids let me open them.
"Oh my god Megan." Cody called out as he jumped on top of me and hugged me tighty.
I tried to hug him back but my arms wouldnt move.
"Sorry Meg but your bodys to weak and drugged up to move anything at the moment." Jessica informed me.
"Drugged?" I could barely get the word out. My mouth was dry and numb.
Cody nodded his head and continued hugging me.
"Whefre arth vi?" I tried to ask but my lips were to numb to talk.
Cody raised his eyebrows as he looked over at Jess.
"Did you catch any of that?"
Jess rolled her eyes and answered,
"Where somewhere in the woods. We had to get you out of that place."
What place? I wanted to ask but didnt want to look stupid so I kept my mouth shut.
"Come on Cody, lets start heading back home." Jessica insisted.
*Emilys pov*
Blake to me already felt like he was already one of my new best friends.
The way he talked to me, the way I felt so comfortable with him, so giddy with him. I felt myself even giggle once or twice every other sentence he spoke. And I hate giggling.
I heard Blake chuckle.
"Why do you keep on laughing Em! No matter what I say you laugh."
"NAH HUH!" I yelled as my lips curled into a smile.
"Apples, banana's , cucumbers, potatoes, greenbeans." He started up but after he said banana's I started dying.
"See what I mean! Girl pull yourself togethe-" he started saying but then looked over towards the ladder.
I stopped laughing and heard someone coming up the ladder.
Cody poked his head over the ledge with a smirk on his face.
"Guess what ." His smile grew wider.
"What now Cody." Blake crossed his arms and stood up in front of us girls to protect us.
"I have some news on some of our group members. Including someones sister, but I guess you dont wanna hear any of it." He shrugged his shoulders as he started walking into one of the side rooms.
I could feel my face turn pale white as I stood up in his way.
"Tell me."
He gave me a sassy look before he crossed his arms, "Found a car, I was heading north when I heard some groans and when I looked inside the car." He paused for a moment. Looking like he was about to cry.
"And? And?" I asked twice, needing him to carry on."
"The car was in a horrible accident and they all didnt make it out."
