Constant Fear

We Are Almost There

                      I stared into the now infected man as he slowly walked to the cart door. He stood there infront in front of me and the only thing that was keeping him away was that door. I saw him get farther away because the conductor broke off the rest of the train. Everyone was shocked but relieved. Luke came over to me and hugged me and started to cry. We were all squished in the two cards but I wasn't complaining. I actually would like to be even more squished because that would mean more survivors. I soon fell asleep on the floor in a corner where there was room. Luke laid next me me and I hugged him tight telling him that everything will be okay and that we would see mom and dad soon.                                                                                                         The next day the train stopped. Everyone sat up and the doors  opened. Everyone crowded by the door to get out and finally me and my brother hopped out. When I got out I looked over behind the train and saw that there was lots barbed wire over I giant stone wall with a gate that was closing. I looked over and saw a school. We were in a school parking lot with train tracks cut in.                                                                                                                                                                         "Hey I guess I was right!" Belle said to me.                                                                                                                 "Yep." I said back.                                                                                                                                                             We all were being lead by some men who showed us around. There ended up being a giant garden, a big place where everyone eats and showed us the classrooms were we would sleep in. There was even a little playground. Everything was beautifully decorated with flowers and lanterns lighted with fire. It wasn't that big of a place. It was like the size of a park. Everything was good again. It wasn't the same but i'm still grateful.  Me and Luke shared a class room. There was only two bunk beds so Belle and her sister shared a bed, me and Luke shared one, Belle's parents shared one, and Derek got one to himself because he is the only man beside their dad.                       That night was great because it was almost like a celebration. We all ate fresh tomatoes, with some mashed potatoes and a little bit of fresh water. It was the best meal I had in awhile.  Everyone gathered in an open area with lighted lanterns lighting it and someone people were playing music with instruments from the music room someone even started singing very loudly and everyone began to dance. It was so happy and cheerful and I actually became happy.
