My Side of the Story

Going Farther Up North

We were about three hours into walking when heard an "err". Everyone stopped walking and looked around to see where the noise had come from. We looked into the woods and we saw a group of about eight zombies coming toward us.
     "Are the moving slower than the zombies farther down South?" Jason asked, staring at the zombies curiously.
     "Yep. Valerie was right. They will move slower the farther up North we go." I said. We all pulled out our weapons. Most of us had knives but Mike had his gun, Valerie had her bow, Maggie had her machete, and Will had a gun(which had a silencer).
We killed all the zombies and continued walking. "Everyone keep your eyes open, there are probably more around." Valerie said.
We walked for three and a half more hours before choosing a place to sleep for the night. Everyone helped set up the tents except for me, John, and Mark. I was digging the pit for the fire with a small garden shovel. John and Mark got the firewood.
Once the tents were up and the fire was going we all sat around it. I sat next to Valerie and Mike. Mike and I were holding hands.
Valerie stood up. "We are nearing our destination. Once we get there we're going to have to look for a place we can stay for a longer time." Valerie said. "I've visited Yellowknife once before and I saw this big and beautiful house that I'm hoping we'll be able to find. On our way there I plan to stop in two more towns. The first one for food and meds. The second one for food and warmer clothes, plus whatever else we can find. Hopefully, for at least the first month that we're up there the amount of zombies won't be immense. Does anyone have anything else to say?" Valerie sat back down.
Maggie stood up. "In the next town we should get more blankets. It's starting to get colder at night." Everyone nodded their heads in agreement as Maggie sat back down.
"Anyone else?" Valerie asked. When no one stood up we made our dinner. More ramen. One pack for every two people. Valerie ate the other half of what she had last time. Everyone else shared with the person they had shared with last time. Once we finished our dinner, we said our good nights and went to sleep.
