(Mckenzies POV)
The school alarm rung. A Lock down drill? We already had one this month.
I looked over to my Best friend Carl. I mouthed 'what the heck?' then Carl just shrugged his shoulders. I heard growling and banging on doors. "CARL! It's happening!" I yelled. He sprang up and grabbed his backpack and coat. I did the same. I cleared the classroom. Taking rope, scissors, yardsticks, And other useful items. " Kenzie and Carl sit down now!" my teacher yelled. I just ignored her and so did Carl. " Ready?" I asked Carl. "Let's go" he said. I said one last thing to my class, "Stay safe don't let the Zombies bite!" I kicked the door open and ran out. Carl and I are neighbors so we ran to our houses.
As soon as we got home, our parents were outside shooting and knifing zombies. " dad!" I yelled. ( My mother died when I was 4)
I ran inside my house and ran upstairs to my room. My dad was a cop as well as Carls dad. I grabbed my knife and pistol. I took a traveling bag from my closet and packed it with the stuff I grabbed from my classroom. "Kenzie?" I heard my dad say from downstairs. " Up here dad!" I yelled. " pack your stuff honey!" he yelled back. "already am!" I replied. I finished packing and ran downstairs. I picked up my backpack too. I ran outside and saw Shane,Lori, Rick, Carl and my dad waiting for me. " I'm ready." I whispered.
We drove to some camp. It's near a pond and we are meeting a girl named Beth, two men named Dale and Daryl and some other people.
I stepped out of the car with Carl. We held hands even though were just friends. A group of people were staring at all of us. I met everyone and I liked Beth the most. She's really nice. Beth took me to the pond while Shane took Carl to sharpen sticks with scissors. Boys only I guess. "So. You like that boy Carl?" Beth asked with a smile. "Kinda. We're just friends though." I said. We talked for a while.
( Carls POV )
Shane was teaching me how to make a spear with scissors. It was pretty cool but I was sweating from the heat so I felt icky. " Shane, can I go down to the pond to wash my face?" " Yup. Just don't go too deep into the water. Beth and Kenzie are down there ok?" "ok thanks! I exclaimed.
I took off my blue shirt and dove into the water. The cool water felt really good on my skin. I swam over to the canoe Beth and Kenzie were on. "BOO" I yelled then shook the boat. Beth slashed into the water while Kenzie stayed on. "Carl Grimes!" Beth screeched! "sorry" I said in a normal voice. We talked for a while until Kenzies dad called us back to the tents. I went on shore and grabbed my shirt.
I walked back to the tents. My pants were soaked. I went into mine and Kenzies tent and zipped up the opening. I went into my bag and took out a pair of sweatpants and a shirt with a paw print on it. I also pulled out a pair of boxers. Yes,I packed boxers too. I took off my pants and boxers and put on a new pair of boxers. While looking for my pants, I heard the zipper opening! Before I could stop it, it opened up and there stood Kenzie. " Oh my god Carl! I'm so sorry!" she said with her hand over her mouth. She quickly ran away.
When I was fully dressed, I walked out of the tent. I heard a growling behind me so I started to run. I looked behind me and there was a walker. I grabbed my spear from my pocket and ran up to the walker.I almost got bitten but I managed to stab the spear in it's forehead. " DAD!" I yelled. He ran up to me and put his hand on my shoulder. " How did it get in? " he asked himself.
While my dad and Kenzies dad rebuilt the fence, I walked over to Kenzie. " Hey. You ok?" she looked a little worried. "No. It's Daryl. He saw a lost dog and killed it!" she sobbed. I pulled her into a huge hug. She loves animals and dogs are her favorite. Kenzie cried into my shoulder. It's getting pretty dark. "let's go to bed." I said. "o-ok." she stuttered. Everyone went to bed except for mom and dad. We held hands while walking to the tent. I feel asleep using my backpack as a pillow and giving my pillow and blanket to Kenzie. Today was pretty busy and I don't know what will happen tomorrow.
