Natsu P.O.V

I threw together what little I had and brushed my hands along her pale face. Knowing this was the last time I would ever see her, before we departed I leaned down pressing my lips on her cold pale ones, pouring all my emotions in that last final goodbye. My tears trickled down along her face. We busted through the gates of the house leaving her body behind. I cringed at the thought that the only girl I ever truly loved had killed herself only to have her body torn and picked at my zombies. Thinking back why did I do it. She confessed her feelings to me through tears and false hope. I knew she had lost her mother less than a month ago but never did I realize how much she really clung on to me with hope. Her father was a drunk. It was obvious he abused her. I knew she had been cutting herself...drinking vodka and going to parties just to forget the pain. But that night I brushed her off and hooked up with Liz. Zeref spoke bringing me out of my trance. "We need to get ahold of some sort of boat." "If we make it to New South Wales we live." If not well....you all know what our fate will be...." Ezra butted in. " Any remaining boats left in the harbor are going to be targeted by remaining survivors and will be filled with zombies no doubt." "We must tread carefully." " You know how many attempted to escape when this whole thing started." " No doubt the harbor will be infested." "Ichiya we are stopping you have 2 seconds to take the wheel." The rest of you. We are taking shifts. I will watch you guys rest. When we get to the harbor it is going to be what late afternoon." We must be at our best if we have any chance of survival."  With that I drifted off to sleep knowing we were digging our own graves. I never had been this grateful just to live another day. To be able to breathe and enjoy life's precious moments. Only now it was too late. I could never return to the life I once had. A life where maybe I wouldn't have made the mistakes I did.
