Alex's POV-
I can't believe this.
I had to kill her.
I feel terrible.
I want to die.
I ran. I ran as far as I could. I looked around and observed my surroundings. It's dark.
And I'm really tired. I noticed I was in some old restaurant. Oh I know this place now.
I ran my fingers over the wall slowly. This use to be my dads Restaurant before he died. I remember I used to always come here as a little girl and spend time with my dad. Man I miss those times. My mom was never around whenever I was with my dad.
My dad use to always tell me
"Alex, whatever comes your way you keep going and never stop. There is always going to be light at the end of the tunnel no matter how dark it is."
That's what he told me before he died. He also said "I love you princess, I will always be watching you. Whenever your sad I will be there to wipe your tears. Whenever your mad I will be there to wrap you in my arms and tell you everything will be alright."
I felt a tear roll down my cheek.
"Daddy.." I whispered softly, yes I miss my dad. He was my best friend.
I found a booth and laid down slowly. I rested my head on my hands and fell asleep. A single tear ran down my cheek.
Dream-
"Daddy!!" I screamed at my dad.
"Alex! Oh my god. Your so grown up." My father said to me. I saw a tear roll down his wrinkled cheek as he smiled that cheeky smile I remember. I was crying now. My eyes are the same Chocalate brown as his. He wrapped me in his arms then all of the sudden the world around me turned to black.
My fathers eyes turned completely turned black and his skin started to melt off. His arms dropped off of me and I backed up in shock.
His bones started to fall apart. His jaw fell to the floor then he had no head. I screamed in agony. "DAD! DAD?! ANSWER ME!!" I screamed as I picked up the remains of my father. I was crying now.
-end-
I woke up with a cold sweat. My eyes wide open. I looked on my phone to see its only 5 in the morning. I looked around and noticed the light all around me. And then I saw a picture of me and my dad. I grabbed it quickly and got a bag and stuffed food in it. Some drinks to.
I was off. I wandered through the woods and having to kill some zombies.
I came up to a rusty looking barn.
Hmm looks comfy enough to rest in. I looked around to see if any zombies were in here.
I saw three. I ran up to them, the first one screamed in agony as I cut its head in half with my machete. 2nd one screamed to as as slit it's throat and chopped its head clean off. The third one looked more human than anything. I'm not taking any chances though.
I was to chop off its head when a voice said "WAIT!"
Esther's POV
I woke up. I was fixing to start getting ready to school then remembered. I sighed and a tear ran down my cheek. The painful deaths of my parents and boyfriend re shot through my head. I grabbed all my stuff and put it in the van again. I had to get use to this life. 'No more crying,' I thought to myself, 'be tough!'
I got in and started the van. It purred then I hit the gas peddle and drove out of there. I had to find other survivors. I can't be the only one living still! There has to be other souls out there that aren't wanting to eat my flesh..... at least I hope.
I went searching. I passed a bunch of houses and started searching them. I found some bandages, cans of food, and even a few knifes, but had no luck finding survivors.
In one of the houses, I thought I found one. He was a little boy and he was sitting on the floor, playing with something. I stood at the doorway of the room he was in.
"Hi, there. You okay?"
He didn't answer. All I could think at the moment was, 'How could parents leave their child behind?!'
"Where's your mommy and daddy?" Still no answer back.
I finally went up to him and smelled something awful! I looked over him and saw a dead bird with out a head in his hand.
'Oh, no!'
I quickly grabbed out my pistol. The little boy turned to me. He was another one of those Things! No wander his parents left him. They also most probably could bare to shoot him either. I couldn't even.
Who wants to shoot a child? So, instead I ran out and got in the van then shut the door. He came running out and starting scratching at my window. It's one thing to see an adult as one of those Things but a child? It brings tears to your eyes and breaks your heart.
I couldn't watch this little boy anymore. It hurt me to watch him. I just started the car and headed to the next house I saw.
The next one had a barn and I saw my fuel was on low. Maybe the barn had gas. I got out carefully and held out my pistol in front of me, so I could shoot anything in my way. So far it was clear from what I see.
I went in the barn and looked for any gas. While doing so I found a few useful things.
I then heard something.I turned around to see two zombies. I was fixing to get to them until I saw another girl around my age. She just killed them both in a minute! I was amazed!
I was fixing to go up to her when I realized something. She had something in her hand and she came up running at me! Aw, shizznic! She thinks I'm one of them! I turned around to run, but then suddenly I tripped. She was getting closer. "WAIT!" I screamed and she stopped.
