Red Moon:No Mercy

DAY 2

Day 2 11:59 pm

Ichabod sat by a fire he had made out of a piece of steel wool and fire,Sophia had fallen asleep a hour ago and this has given Ichabod time to grieve and time to remember the ones that had fallen.Ichabod stopped grieving and heard a noise,he grabbed his rifle and yelled "Who goes there!,I'm not afraid to shoot!". A woman shows up crying "Please help he's dying!". Ichabod looked at the woman "Whoa hold on lady calm down,who's dying?".The woman started speaking again "My husband he got bit by one of those things and he turned crazy and crashed the car...he tried to bite me".Ichabod frowned "Lady I'm sorry but your husband is dead,once you turn there's no going back...If you like you can follow me to the evacuation zone that leaves in 6 days from New York".The Woman nods and eyes Sophia "Is she your daughter?"she asked. Ichabod nods and looks at the Woman with cautious eyes,scanning for any visible bites "Yeah,her name is Sophia".The Woman smiles "I haven't seen a baby in years how old is she?".Ichabod didn't like this talk,why is talking to this woman he didn't trust her she was a complete stranger he had just found not one of the familiar like Andrew hopefully he was still alive out there somewhere."She's 6 months now...I'm Ichabod what's your name?".Ichabod decided to actually talk to her about these things,he actually liked talking to someone who actually talks back all Sophia does is coo and cries.The woman smiles "I'm Susan...so did her mother you know...".Ichabod closes his eyes "Yeah a stage 7's acid got her she died a few minutes later and that was just today".Susan looks at Ichabod "Well...Since my husband is dead then can I stay here with you?". Ichabod nodded and took the first watch.

Day 2 (Continued)

Ichabod took watch all night,he was didn't sleep he had to watch over Sophia. In the morning Ichabod nearly feel asleep but he kept himself up and heard some shuffling and growls "Damn it...Susan infected are coming" Ichabod whispered trying to wake her.Susan opened her eyes and got up.Ichabod raised the rifle and aimed at the corner of a rusted car.The Infected looked at them with bloodied eyes and growled,it slowly shuffled towards them.Ichabod fired and the Infected was hit,it didn't fall down dead it kept coming no matter how many shots it took it didn't die.Ichabod fired again this time hearing a clicking sound,he had run out of ammo and need to run with or without Susan.Ichabod quickly turned and ran "Susan come on!".Susan ran as well but she wasn't as fast as Ichabod which surprised her,his amazing speed even when carrying a baby on his back.They run in-till they couldn't no more.They stop in a fork in the road,one lead to a pharmacy and the other lead too the remains of a burned down town."Well Ichabod where to now?"Susan said between breaths.Ichabod looked around "Well Sophia might need to eat soon but I do have a pot of baby food for her in my backpack but that's not gonna last her much"Ichabod said looking at the Pharmacy.Susan looked at Sophia and then back at Ichabod "I'll go too the Pharmacy while you watch Sophia and when I get back I expect you will tell me your story"Susan said smiling.Ichabod looked at Susan "If your gonna go please take my pistol,you can't go out in there without a weapon".Susan gladly took the gun and ran off.

Ichabod's Dairy

I think it's February,I'm not so sure anymore I haven't looked at a calendar in years.I miss calendars now really,but I miss Lyric most.I remember the day I met her in Ox Ford.She had her hair dyed brown,she thought people would think she was stupid with her blonde hair.I was never believed that though,She was smart she had always gotten straight O's in all of our classes.Thinking about her makes me remember her death,I met her,I loved her,and with a flick of a switch she was gone.She had died...I want to think that she still out there waiting for me somewhere in the mist of time.We are all stuck here on this dying world, it's hard to believe its all coming to a end.The world will never recover from this I know it.Even it did we all be remembering the decisions that we had made,it will haunt us for the rest of our lives.There isn't any recovering from this,it's gotten to bad to go back.There is only one thing right now and it's goodbye.The people that I cared about are dead all expect Sophia,she must survive this...I will sacrifice my life if it meant Sophia growing up in a world that you don't have to watch your back all the time.Not in this world so gone.So I say goodbye...
