Zombie's POV

Chapter five

She finally untied me from the chair. As the rope fell to the ground I rubbed my wrist. they were red, and sore.

"Sorry I didn't mean to tie then that tight." she said. "What's your name.?" I ask her, she never told me her name.

"My..my name is Icis."

That's a cool name... I'm kinda jealous of that name.

"You have a pretty name."

"Thanks... My mommy loved that name." I chucked a little. She had a small smile spread across her face.

I've been here for a little over a week now... I've made trips to the stores to get her what vet see needed, man he eats like a cow.

I also have been looking for her dad, every time I head into town. I haven't seen any signs that he was here... It's kinda unnerving.

She always ask if I found him... I feel bad because I haven't. I don't know why I help her... It's just something bout her... She is so sweet, and I've been training her how to take "us" down.... Man she's a killer.

She told me about her life before all of this started. I found out she wasn't six, she really was 12. Man she looked really young.

Her mom and dad were married for four years before they were born, they moved to this country house when she was six, he dad worked in the city so he would come home only for the weekends, which up set her and her mother.

Her mom and dad began to fight.. Then her mom moved out and her dad lost his job the day all of this started.

"CHANGER.! Can you help me with this.!?" She yelled from out side.

Since I couldn't remember my name very well she called me 'changer'.

"Coming.!"

Ugh man I hated doing these chores... We have to water and weed the food we grow.. Oh I forgot to tell y'all, we are growing some peppers, tomatoes, and potatoes.

We found some seeds on are last run. I started taking her with me so she could build up on her fighting skills.

I walked out side and she had a big pile of weeds next to her... "Icis what do you need help with.?"

I have already finished my chores today... "Can you make another run.? but not to town.?"

"What.? Why.?"

"Because... Three miles from here I seem a house, and I thought I heard animals last night.. and I wanted you to go check."

"Look we can't keep running out every time you wanna check something. we can draw attion to us."

She looked at me with her puppy dog eyes..." We can't keep doing this Icis. those puppy dog eyes won't work.!"

But man those were some powerful puppy dog eyes...."fine.! This is the last time. I'll go after my chores tomorrow."

"Yay.!!!" The smile on her face was big and bright.

Im starting to get attached to this little bugger.

After our talk I walked inside and started making dinner, it wasn't any special meal.. Just some canned tuna and corn. We had to make do with what we got.

She came in a little before dark.

"So, since I'm going to do this run for you tomorrow.. you owe me something." I said with a evil grin.

"Oh snap.... Like what.?"

"Hahaha" my evil laugh needed some work, it sounded more like a horse snorting.

She busted out laughing.

"Okay, okay calm down, hahaha but you will need to take care of the animals of I do find some."

Her eyes lit up.

"Oh.! Yes.! I will.!!"

Man was she so happy.
