The Apocalypse

Chapter 5

Chapter 5: (shout out to my friend Emily because she is now introduced in the book)

My heart started beating really fast. "Emily? ..............thats a pretty name," I said. What was I supposed to say to her? I had to say, she was actually very pretty. Her hair was brown and she was kinda short. Shorter than me. "Uhm ..... Thanks," she said. The others left the room. Mika and Lizzie asked Grayson to come play with them. Carol took Addy over to Judith's playpen. "You look really familiar...Do I know you?"I said. "I'm not sure... but we can be friends if you want," she said. "Yea, that would be good, I guess." I said. "It's so hard to make friends in this world.. Now their just , survival partners," Emily said. Carl came into the room. I suddenly got butterflies. "Hey Anna, Emily, do you wanna go outside and find One direction?" He said. "WHERE?!?"Emily said. "Haha nice try," I said. "No but seriously, their out there, and they need your help," carl said. "ILL SAVE THEM" she said. Emily ran off to go find them. "Wait I was just kidding!!!!" Carl said. But it was too late. Emily went on a search for One Direction. "We have to go get her !" Carl said. We ran outside and saw Emily standing waiting for them to come. "You know their probably dead right," carl said. They weren't dead. How could they be if they could be in the air in their private jet away from these things?

A month went by, and I got used to things around the prison. We were really all one big family. I thought of my mother when I think of the word "family" because she isn't here with me. To think, we were so close, she almost made it. We were almost to safety. It's not fair. Not fair at all.

I was laying in my bed in my cell with the door closed. It wasn't really a "door" , but it still was stronger than the one in my old bedroom. I went to go check on Addy. She was in in Beth's arms. I could tell Beth really liked her. "I think she likes you," I say. Beth smiles. "I do , too. I love babies." She says. "How old are you?" I ask. "Not to be weird, or anything like that." Beth sits down in a chair. "I'm 18. How about you?" She says. I start to talk. "I'm 13. My birthday is in October." "My sisters 13, too." Beth says. After That, I decided I should go to bed. I haven't slept for a while. All I could think about was Carl. Carl ,Carl ,Carl. His cell was a few away from mine. I could hear Rick talking to him. "Son, you know if he comes and something happens, your gonna be the last man standing." Rick said. Who? What man? Was he a bad person? Carl began to speak. "I know. I just want to keep everyone alive. Especially the young kids; like Mika, Lizzie, Luke, Grayson, Addy and Judith." After a couple minutes I heard rick walk away. I never heard carls cell close. He always closed his cell. "Surprise!" Carl said. I jumped up and hit my head on the ceiling. "Ow! Why did you do that !?!?!" I say. Carl couldn't help but burst out laughing. I gave him a dirty look. Then his face went back to normal. "What?"he said. "Oh nothing," I say in a sweet voice. "What's goin on in here ?" Said a voice from a distance. It was Maggie. She was really pretty. I guess her and Emily and Beth were sisters. Their dad was very nice too. "I was just sitting here and then Carl scared me," I say. "Carl , if you like her just tell her," she said. His face got red. "Come on, we all know it," she says. "I'm gonna go to sleep, night guys!" Carl said. Then he runs out of the cell. "I think I know who likes you," Maggie says. "I think I do, too."
