The caravan of cars stopped. I had fallen asleep last night, well before it was dark.  I looked at the sun, and I guess it's about midday.

"You slept for a while, do you feel rested?"

"Yes, do we uhh.. have anything to eat?"

"We do indeed, Captain Collier?"

"Yes Pastor?"" the man in the passenger side side

"Do you had any of that beef jerky left?"

"An entire bag ma'am"

"Could Nate eat it?"

"Certainly" he said opening the glove box and pulling out a bag.

He handed it back to me and I opened it. It smells so good. I tore off a piece and bit into it. The taste was so filling, I savored it.

"We will be making a stop soon, for about a day or so to find fuel, food, and things of that manner"

"Ok, where at?"

"North Grand Mall"

"What state?"

"Iowa, we will be close to Des Moines"

"Pastor wade?"

"Yes Nate?"

"Where is Ellie?"

"In the car in front of us, would you like her to come in here?"

"Please"

The group said that we will stop in Coxville, Indiana. Well sleep for the night and get back on the road. Get up when the light breaks the sky a little.

"Where are you from again?" Maria asked

"Georgia"

"How the hell did you end up here?"

"Well we went to New York looking for some people, but they weren't their so we started toward Washington State, we got stopped by the Disciples on the way their, and here we are"

"What's the plan when you find the disciples?"

"Kill them and their leader, find Nate and Ellie"

"That's not very thought out"

"It's the best I got right now"

We kept down the silent road.

I looked at some cars on the side of it.

"Can't we try some of these cars?"

"Cars make noise, noise attract infected, infected bring death" Lemmy said

"I'm trying to catch up"

"Trust me, we are gonna get to them"

-4 hours later-

The sun hit the horizon in the most odd way. It gave off a colorful aurora. Green, blue, gold, pink. It was Mother Earth displaying some beauty in all of this fucked up shit.
