Survival [UNDER MAJOR RE-CONSTRUCTION] {Incomplete}

Chapter 13

I placed my hands on my knees, trying to catch my breath as I searched. She really got herself into a situation this time. But those dumbasses are also apart of it.

Why do they have to be so stupid?

After my little rest I immediately started running again, listening for sounds or looking for clues that may lead me to her.

It's times like this where I thank my training for putting me in shape. I cant even imagine what my body would be experiencing if I wasn't.

Soon enough I run into a group of grumbling infected.

"Shit!" I yell out loud. I take a few steps back whilst grabbing my bow, draw an arrow as soon as possible and aim. Hitting one of them straight on I pull out another arrow while continuously taking steps back.

"Gah!" I yelp as I fall backwards. I instantly realize I'm on the ground and look to see the infected are only a few feet away, and inching closer by the second.

I immediately start scooting away, while  scrambling to get on my feet.

Once I'm up I start running, completely forgetting about my bow, which I dropped.

I continue to run until I run into another group of infected. I reach for my bow, only to realize I don't have it with me.

I silently curse to myself and turn to my right, running away from both groups.

I stop abruptly when I see a flash of blonde hair behind a bush. I squint my eyes and inch closer completely forgetting I have a group of infected tailing me.  

When I reach the bush I quickly pull back on the branches, biting my lip to hold back a scream when I see Tech hiding behind the bush.

She lets out a high pitched shriek when she sees me, and by instinct I cover her mouth.

"What the hell Tech?! Be quiet!" I whisper yelled. She forcefully shoves my hand off her mouth with a scowl on her face.

"What the hell Chrone don't touch me." She says with a glare.

"Fine I guess you just wanna die out here then." I say turning around, making my way back to my hideout.

"No! I mean uh...whatever I'm coming."

Tch how ungrateful. "Its no problem Tech really." I mumble to myself.

Tech shoots me a glare and I bite my lip in order to stop myself from giggling at her childish demeanor.

We walk in silence back to the hide out all the while Tech keeps a steady scowl on her face which results in me rolling my eyes.

Not soon enough we make it back to the hideout and I can't stop the the relieved smile that makes it's way onto my face. I quickly type in the new password and push through the doors before realizing I forgot my bow...out there...in the forest...dark forest.

I take a shaky breath and turn around and start to push through the large doors.

"Where are you going?" Tech asks somewhat curiously.

"To get my bow. Tell Ethan and Henri I'll be back late if they ask." With that said I leave.

There's a sliver of sunlight left barely accenting the sky above. It's hard to see and generally I would hate to search in the dark, let alone in a zombie apocalypse.

I'm constantly looking from left to right and behind me and jump at the slightest of noises. Maybe it's my paranoia but I could swear I see infected's in my peripheral vision.
