Isabelle’s POV (p.s. most of the story will be in her POV, so if I don’t say who it is, it is hers)
There it is; green, big, and that big book I always wondered was it was for. But anyways, we had made it to Liberty Island.
We had talked it over as a group to travel about 20 miles to the island because that’s the best chance of safety.
Before we made our way there, we stopped by a near abandoned Wal-Mart to get supplies. We got some food, water, medical supplies and a wheel chair for Louis. On a positive note, we didn’t have to pay for any of it.
It took us about 2 days to get there because we had to make so many stops. Weather to get more food because everyone in this group was a f****** pig, or to kill zombies that got in our way.
Anyway, we made it. Louis was getting better because of the medicine he was taking, so he could now walk.
“How are we supposed to get across?” James asked.
“Well….” I looked around at my surroundings and saw some kayaks on the edge of the water.
I walked over to the boats and lifted one up to get the water out of it. I felt a hand grab by wrist. I looked down to see a zombie’s teeth about to dig into my arm.
I quickly backed away and tripped over one of the kayaks as I heard a gun fire.
I turned around to see Harry with a gun in his hands panting. “God I thought you were going to get bit! Never scare me like that again!” He screamed.
My eyes went wide as he bent down beside me. “Are you ok? I’m sorry I screamed, I just thought you were gone.”
“Thank you.” I said. “Next time I’ll be more careful.”
David came up behind us to look at the kayaks. “Ok, there are 2 singles and 2 doubles. Someone should go with Louis and we can figure the rest out.”
I was pretty impressed, he has become a lot less more….him in the last couple of days.
“How about Connie goes with Louis, and Isabelle and I will go together.” Harry suggested.
“That’s fine.” I immediately responded. Couldn’t pass that up.
As I started to step into the boat I almost fell over but was quickly caught by strong tan arms to help me back up. I looked up at him in a way to make my eyes say thanks.
He helps me get into the boat, but everyone is already 10 feet ahead already rowing in sink, obviously not interested in our soon-to-be love life, or I hope it would be that…
Wait, wait, wait….. I just remembered….He has a child, which means he has a wife, which means he is taken, or even if they aren’t here anymore, he probably wouldn’t go for a high school girl like me, because he is probably like 25 or 30.
Curiosity took over me as I couldn’t stop myself from asking, “How old are you?”
It came out a little more aggressive then I intended it to.
“I’m 20, how about you?” I wanted to say 19, but I couldn’t lie to him.
“I’m 17.” I said a little sheepishly.
“Awesome. So are you a junior?” he asked.
“Actually I’m a senior. I skipped a grade. Apparently they thought I was really smart when I lived in England, so when I came here in 8th grade they just bumped me up to 9th.”
“So your from England? I never would’ve guessed!” he said while imitating my accent.
“Yes, yes. Now where are you from?”
“South Dakota.” He replied
I started bursting out laughing. “South Dakota?” I asked still laughing my ass off “That is the boring state! Its where you say you want to go for sarcasm.”
“Hey!” he screamed sounding offended, but laughing at the same time. “I would like to have you know that it can be very exciting and…” he was interrupted by a loud scream.
I turned around to see a zombie swimming up to Louis and Connie’s boat. I turn around to get my gun but its not there! SHIT! We must have left it back where we found the boats!
I turn back around to see them rowing faster, but the zombie is catching up.
I scream the first thing that comes to my mind, but knowing it won’t help, “SWIM FASTER TO THE SHORE! Once you get there get out and run, we will catch up to you!”
I just now realized that we were about 50 yards behind them. Both of us immediately picked up speed as I thought how the hell can a zombie swim?!
I didn’t realize how long I was thinking on this small topic when our oar hit the bottom. I looked up to see Harry getting out of the boat and stepping on the concrete. He gives me a hand out and we immediately start running towards where Harry saw them running. David and James where already hot on there trail.
God this zombie must have done triathlons or something because he was like a f****** Olympic person the way he could run.
Suddenly I spot a dead navy seal man on the floor next to me as I’m running and see 4 guns next to him.
I quickly grab two of them and hand one of them to Harry.
I see Louis limp into the gift shop with Connie with the zombie quickly following them
I run in and see Louis and Connie not running from the zombie, put pulling him off of something. I pull up my gun and shoot the zombie right in the head.
He falls to the floor, revealing a little girl; blond, blue eyes, crying with blood running down her arm with teeth marks on her wrist…
Sorry it took me a while to update. With exams coming up and all the last minute tests and crap given to us, it’s hard to write 24/7
Anyway, I’ll update soon since I gave you a cliffhanger…. SO TA TA FOR NOW!
P.s i didnt have time to edit this so.....SORRY! :)
