Escaping The Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter Twenty-Four

(Indigo's Point Of View)

"You do know that door is very thin, and there is no way in hell I'm going to take you anywhere near my family, I don't care what you do." I spit out, realising only now that they are in fact my family even Teddy. "And you're brother seems to be an idiot." I start to cry a little.

"Okay Rapunzel, One I can see that." He says gesturing to my back, "Two Step Brother and Three he isn't an idiot, he was just carefree before this world and now he's lost because he can't be like that anymore." He takes a deep breath before going on with his list. "And for your information we are not bad people."

(Two And A Half Years Ago...)

The anger boils over and this time I can't stop it. And soon it takes over, sure I've been angry before but never like this, it's an anger that consumes you and all you want to do is break something that's all you can think of that's all that goes through you.

I run into the corner hands out until I felt the wall and started smashing my fist into the wall. I don't stop until I can't feel my hand anymore.

-----------------

(Now...)

I remember when I was little, my father would watch Macgyver, and you know the guy famous for getting out of everything.

It was one of my favourite shows not because I enjoyed it (which I did, but that's beside the point.), it was because I got to watch it with my father every Saturday. We didn't get along very well, so this show kind of connected us.

I clearly remember this one episode where these guys had taken Macgyver captive and held him in an old wooden chair. Which of course he got out of.

So I did just that, this stupid annoyingly uncomfortable chair has something that the last one didn't.

It's wooden. Easily broken.

I start thrashing around until I come smashing into the ground breaking the fucking chair into pieces. I jump up off the floor and try to run to the door, but from my fast lift and my mind racing I fall straight to the ground with an oomph. I slowly lift myself from the ground, as I do I grab onto the wall to help secure me in an upright position. I lift one foot after the other until I reach the door, I rest my ear upon the door and listen for any movement. When I feel the coast is clear I open the door and take in my surroundings.

I'm in a camp site with at least ten cabins. I walk up to the cabin next door to mine, I open the door slowly and go to look inside when I hear voices down the road I run inside and slam the door shut, as my eyes soar through the room I lay them on my pistol alone with a few tools like a spanner, crowbar and even a hammer. I rush over to my pistol and grab it, I pull out the loading slot and see that none of my bullets are there, I scour the room for any sight of my bullets, but with no luck. I clip my pistol in my cargo pants and grab the hammer as in if I come in contact with them I'll threaten them with it, and from what I can tell by them neither of them have a gun.

I hear them again but this time they sound like they're right outside the door.

(Andrew's Point Of View)

James and I have been plotting on how to get her to take us to her friends we've been going through our options and only one seems to be standing out, but neither of us want to actually go though with it so we're thinking of just threaten her with the idea instead of enforcing it, but even with this idea it seems unlikely to work considering from the look of her back she seems to have suffered though something just like it.

At this moment we are about to walk into our weapons/tools cabin to see what we should use. As soon as we walked in I felt an aroma of something awful I turn to tell James about the feeling but that's when I see the girl behind James with a pistol to her head.

I move my eyes to look at James and reach for the gun I have tucked into my shirt, I place my hand on it and wait for James before I grab it, he shakes his head when he realises what I'm thinking.

"I want the keys." She demands and James turns to face her.

"Okay, but how about we make a deal before you get your panties in a knot." He says calmly as if he knows something I don't I move away from the line of fire and stand to the side just in case so I can get a shot at her if need be.

"A deal, you've got to be kidding me or maybe you're just that stupid. For one you've held me hostage and two I'm the one with the gun." She says in a snarky tone.

"Okay, well how about you just listen and maybe it'll all be fine. You can even keep your gun pointing at me if you wish." James says still calm.

"Fine, speak." She gives in for some unknown reason.

"Okay well the only reason we kidnapped you was because we are desperate, we haven't eaten for about two weeks now and we really just want food and we apologise for what we've done, but please just take us to your friends you can have the gun to us the whole time." He says explaning the situation, she nods for some reason. But she doesn't put down her gun just points for us to leave first. "Oh and you might need these." James says passing some bulletat them with shock and I do the same.

------------

"Wait so you knew the whole time and yet you didn't tell me?" I ask still in awe and shock.

"Yet, pretty much." He says shining a smirk as big as you can in a world like this, but like Tallahassee, says, you got to enjoy the little things.

"So why'd you go alone with it if you knew I couldn't hurt you?" The girl asks but not in a begging way more like she was demanding an answer without any need to yell.

"Because, Rapunzel, I needed you to feel comfortable because I knew you wouldn't let us anywhere near your family if you didn't trust us." James responded a little cockily.

"I don't trust you..." She snaps back.

"No, you feel sorry for us." James answers back.
