Lauren wakes up. She sees a man that is definitely not her boyfriend. "MIKE!!" She screams. Mike jumps up to see the man. He pulls out his knife when the man puts his hands up. "I-I'm Austin. I'm not going to h-hurt you. Th-they're after me too." The man said. Mike slowly put down his knife. Lauren gives Mike a look and then nods her head. "Hello, Austin. Who's after you?" Lauren asks. Austin looks at Mike and then slowly lowered his arms. "T-the..the saviors." Austin replied. "The group that was chasing you." He added. Lauren looked at Mike. "They aren't going to leave you alone now. Ever." Austin said and looked down slowly. "They killed my friends after we killed one of his men." Austin said as he got teary-eyed. "I'm so sorry." Lauren said. "I'm Mike. Lauren's boyfriend." Mike said with a smile. "Hello. We really have to get going. They're on our tail. I stalled them for a while but now they've probably caught on." Austin said wiping his eyes. Mike stood up and then helped Lauren up. "Which way is your place?" Austin asked. Lauren looked at Mike. His eyes were wide. He forgot. He never actually knew. He thought this was the right way when it was dark but apparently it's not. "I-I-I don't know." Mike mumbled and Lauren's breathing hitched. Mike looked at Lauren. "I-it's okay. Let's just retrace our steps. I remember climbing over a fence so that's a start." She said, pointing to the fence. Mike nodded and Austin smiled. "Let's go then." Mike said and looked at his girlfriend. After hours and hours of walking the finally found the town where Lauren and Mike looked for water. "Aha!" Mike said and pointed down a familiar road. "It's that way. We have about half an hour left." Mike said. Lauren smiled and held his hand. Mike looked at her and kissed her. "I love you." He mumbled. "I love you more." She said back. Austin made a barfing noise. "Ewww!" He said and closed his eyes, causing the couple to laugh. After walking for about 30 more minutes they saw the house. As they were getting close to the door, Tracey and a couple other people ran out to greet them. Tracey pulled Lauren in a tight and warm hug. "I thought you were dead" she whispered and pulled Lauren closer. Zach hugged Austin. "Nice to have you back, Mike." He said. "Thanks, Zach." He replied. When Tracey pulled away from Lauren there were tears in her eyes. "What's wrong?" Lauren asked. "6 people went out to look for you, including dad." Tracey said and looked down. "Only one person came back. It was Zach. He said that another group shot everyone except for dad and him. He managed to get away but they took dad." Tracey said as tears fell down her cheeks. Lauren gasped. Tracey looked at Austin. "Who-who's that?" She asked and gripped her gun. "That's Austin. He's a good guy. The group than ambushed you was probably the saviors. They are after our group and him." Lauren replied. "Oh my god." Tracey said. Lauren looked at Mike. He put his arm around her. "I'm afraid we're in deep shit." He said.
The dude in the pick is Austin. Yes I realize it's PewdiePie 😂. Oh well, he just seemed to fit. Also, I kinda hope that Zach becomes a big character.
