Chapter 2: What happens in Florida, stays in Florida
We were on the road when it happened. We saw tons of em. Then gunshots, bullets flew. They hit my brother in the shoulder and my mom in the head. She was dead and we knew it.
"No!!! Mom! Please!"
"She's dead Patrick. And we will be too if we stay here. Let's go."
We both got out of the car. Then it was my brothers turn. He had gotten bit.
"Aarrggg!"
"PARKER NO!!!!"
"Patrick. P-pplease go on without me. Now this will be hard but, I need you too shoot me. So I don't turn like the others. I might not have said it but, I love you, good bye Patrick. "
"O-oo-ok I love yo-u-u too. Goodbye."

I had ran back the way we came. I had a plan. I was to go back to my friends house. He would know what to do.
As I was heading back, there was a gun store. I thought I might've been robbed or something. But it wouldn't hurt to try. I walked in as quiet as possible without the bell ringing above me. But I couldn't stop it. Then all of a sudden a man jumped out from behind the counter pointing a 12-gauge at me.
"What do you want!"
"I'm sorry sir, I'm all alone my mom and brother are both dead."
"What about your father?" He said while still pointing the gun at me.
"He left when I was three."
"Oh," he said lowering the gun.
"All I have is my grand dads Ruger. And I'm all out."
"Well I'll give you a couple with some ammo too."
"Thank you and god bless you."
I found a pillow case on the ground and tried to use that. So he gave me a duffle bag.
"Thank you."

I was on their street. It was kind of weird cause there were none of those bity thingies. After about 10 minutes of sneaking past and dodging biters, I finally got to the door. But then I heard it. A gunshot
