The Apocalypse Adventures

Chapter 10 - Crazy

We have decided to stay this night at the shop. No sign of walkers. Lots of equipment and food. What a great day! My mom and I took our sleeping bags, while Alex decided what's for the dinner. We sat together in a circle and started to eat. Canned beans never tasted better! The evening turned darker and darker by every hour. It was time to sleep soon. We were so tired, and we slept in very quick.

It was in the middle of the night. I woke up from a strange noise coming from the basement. The noise reminded me of an echo.The curiousness took over me, so, I went downstairs. The noise came from a big door with a sign do not enter. I opened it slowly as I thought there were the living ones. I didn't believe what I saw... There were lots and lots of hungry creatures, which were walking and walking, and growling. I did not have idea that they could be there! Of course they "saw" me. I ran up the stairs as fast as I could. My leg hurt so bad. "Mom, Alex, quick!" shouted I while I was running. "What's wrong sweetie?" asked my mom. "No time to explain! Just take the things and go outside!" We couldn't take everything with us. Another problem was the other creatures outside. Tons of them! Our car was "occupied" by them. I took out my knife of my pocket, then stabbed one, then another. I kept stabbing them, but it didn't help. There were too many of them. My sight became unclear. My thoughts became unrealistic. I think I fell on the ground. The last thing my eyes saw was Alex. His face full of nervousness. His eyes full of fear.

I woke up in the car. Alex was driving this time while mom was asleep. We were near a town called Maryville  (most of town/city names are fictional). We stopped at the gas station. The strangest thing was that the man was still working there. The electricity was on. We walked in. "Good day! What can I help you?" the old man asked. "Well... were do I start.." said my mom. "Why are you working? And from where you got the electricity?" asked Alex. "What a stupid question, son, I work for a living!" shouted the irritated man. "Haven't you seen scary creatures that eat you alive? Or about the infection? The New York area became infected and now everything is gone!" said I. "Are you on drugs or something? I have not even heard about bullsh*t like this!" shouted he even louder...
