I'm a 14 year old girl and my life was pretty normal until the zombie apocalypse broke out. If you don't know what that is then your pretty much dead already. But from what you know about the zombie apocalypse completely changes in my world. It starts out with your normal zombie slaying and badasses and stuff... But soon all of that changes. Few will survive. I'm one on those few. I'm Kaitlynne Townsend and this is my story.

But remember...
No one is a true surviver...
We will all die...

Welcome To...

My Life In The Zombie Apocalypse... With A Twist!

So I've been staying at my grandparents house the last couple days and we are on our way to the mall to get something my grandma wanted. It's just me, my uncle john, and grandma.

"Kaitlynne? You ok? Your being awful quiet back there." Grandma called from the front. "Yeah. I was just lost in thought." I told her.

"We're here." Uncle John said and got out of the car followed by Me and Grandma. "I can see that." I said and he rolled his eyes.

We walked into the mall and grandma headed to the clothes department. "When we get there you can pick out something you want Kaitlynne." Grandma said. "Ok. Thanks Grandma."

We walked in and I went over to where they kept their lipgloss and stuff. (I'm a sucker for lipgloss. :) )

I picked up a cherry lip balm and turned around to go find Uncle John and grandma. When I turned around I was faced with a man. But this was no ordinary man. The skin on his face was rotting and hanging off. He had a huge chunk of flesh missing from his neck and he smelled terrible. "Sir? Are you alright?" I asked. He didn't reply but started to chase me.

"Sir?!" I said louder and next thing I knew I was on the ground with this man- no this wasn't a man it was some other thing- This thing on top of me.

"HELP!!! UNCLE JOHN!!!" I screamed while trying to keep the creature away from me. But it kept trying to bite me? "PLEASE HELP!!!" I screamed again. I started to get tired and now the creature was starting to over power me. "PLEASE SOMEBODY HEL-" My scream was cut off by a baseball bat (witch came from the sports store next door) connecting with the creature's head.

"Are you ok?" The boy who saved me asked. "Yeah I think so. Thank you." I replied. "No probl-" He started to say but a bloodcurdling scream cut him off. But this was no regular scream. "GRANDMA!!!" I yelled and took off running in the direction of the scream.
"Shit." I heard the mystery man say as he took off behind me.

"Grandma!" I yelled when I saw her laying on the ground with a bloody neck and a chunk of her shoulder missing.

I ran over to her and let Uncle John kill the mother fucker that bit his mom.
"Grandma." I said in tears as I sit by her lifeless body. "Grandma please. Don't leave me." But it was too late. All signs of life drifted away from her body.

"No...." I sobbed "No no no no NO!!!" I screamed and stood up. I ran over to the son of a bitch that took my grandma away from me and kicked it repeatedly. I walked away from it punched the shelf next to me and knocked all the items to the floor. Uncle John hovered over his mom crying letting me take out my anger.

Suddenly all the adrenalin that was in my body seconds ago faded away and I fell to my knees with my face in my hands. The boy who saved came over to me and wrapped me in a hug. I turned around and cried into his chest. "Shhh. It's ok." He said trying to calm me. My grieving was interrupted by the screams of uncle John.

I sprung to my feet breaking from his grasp and ran over to where Uncle John was to see Grandma trying to take a bite out of his arm. I grabbed a nearby bottle and smashed it on her head. She didn't flinch but she did turn around and go after me. Then the store owner came around the corner and shot what used to be my Grandma in the head.

"Come on! We have to go! Their coming!" She yelled and we all ran after her. "Good bye Grandma." I said and looked back then turned and kept running.

We ran out of the store and started running towards the nearest exit.

We were almost there when one of those things grabbed me from the ground and knocked me to the floor. "AHHHH!!!" I screamed at the pain in my leg.

I kicked the creature in the head about 3 times when the boy who saved me earlier turned around to help me. He stomped the things head and helped me up. I tried to take a step but a sharp pain rose in my leg and I almost fell again. "What's wrong?" He asked. "I don't know but my ankle hurts." I told him. He wrapped his arm around me helped me to the exit where I was greeted by the others.

"I'm gunna take my motorcycle." He said and walked over the only motorcycle in the parking lot. "Those things are coming!" The store owner yelled. "Kaitlynne! You ride with him!" Uncle John said and started to get in the car. "Come on!" The boy yelled and I limped over to him. Uncle John stuck his head out of the car. "YOU KEEP HER SAFE!" He yelled at the boy. He nodded and we both got on his bike.

Uncle John pulled out first with us right behind him.

"Thanks for saving me. Twice." I told him. "No problem. What's your name by the way?" He asked. He must not of caught my name. "Kaitlynne. You?"
"I'm Zack. And I'm 15 by the way." He said. "And I'm 14. By the way." I said in a mocking tone. He just scoffed and looked ahead and kept driving.

We were about to cross an intersection when a truck came out of nowhere and crashed right into Grandma's car and took them off the road. "NO!" I screamed. "We have to keep going! Those things are coming! We need to get put of the city!" Zack yelled. "G-g-go!" I stuttered and we were driving once again.

I wrapped my arms around his waist and silently cried into his back. We drove a little longer then a thought popped into my head. "Kaylee!" I shouted making Zack jump a little by my suddenness. "What?" He asked. "My sister Kaylee. She and my mom are still out there!" I said. "Ok where to?" He asked. "I'll show you." I said and started giving him directions.

We were almost to my apartment building when I heard a scream. I looked around to see Kaylee fighting off about 10 of those things alone.
"Zack! Over there!" I yelled and pointed at my sister.

He stopped him bike and grabbed a pistol out of the back.
He started to shoot all the creatures. Once they were all dead I started to run over to her. "Mom's gone!" She shouted coming towards me too. "She's dead." She said sobbing.

I felt my eyes widen when I saw another creature come up behind her. "KAYLEE!" I screamed trying to warn her but it was too late. The creature dug it's teeth into her neck taking a bite of her flesh. Zack shot it and I ran over to my sister on the ground. I knelt down beside her and put my hand on her cheek.

"Kaylee..." I sobbed. "Don't leave me. You can't leave me."
"It'll be ok Kaitlynne. You'll be ok." She choked out. "No no no. You can't die." I said as another tear fell from my cheek. "You can beat this world. I know you can. Your strong, your smart, and your so brave and I love you." She told me. "I love you too."
"W-Who's that?" She said her voice becoming weaker looking at Zack. "That's Zack he saved me." I told her. "Thank you Zack for saving my little sister." she said and Zack nodded. "Please keep her safe." Kaylee said to him. "Of course." He said.
Kaylee looked up at the stars since the sun just set. "Good night love." She said and closed her eyes. "I love you Big Sis. I love you..." I said as she smiled and the life disappeared from her body and she went limp in my arms. "No no no no no..." I sobbed and hugged her body as close as I could.

I pulled away from her an emotional wreck. "Please don't let her turn." I said looking to Zack. "Ok..." He said and pulled me to him. "Don't look." He said hiding me behind his back. I closed my eyes tight and jumped when I heard the gunshot. "Come on. We have to get out of the city." He said leading me to his bike.

I climbed on his bike and wrapped my arms around his body. I closed my eyes and cried silently into his back.
