Marks

A whole new level of wierd

We left the school and were greeted by to guards infront of a large gate. The gate had metal and wood in one.
"Let's go get the jeep." Emma turned to the left and started walking down the pavement.
"Who's jeep is it?" I asked as I walked.
"Ours," Emma jumped in the passenger side of the silver jeep.
"I'm not sure If your aware, but I'm not 16 yet." I reminded her as she patted the drivers seat.
"So? If Chief says you can drive, no one can stop you from driving." Emma seemed 100% on board with the fact that Abby could say anything and it became law.
"If I get pulled over by the cops, I blame you." I pointed at her and she handed me the key. Dawson was already in the back ready to get going. Emma had a large gun in her hands.
"Hold on!" I planted my foot on the pedal and the jeep shot forward. I made a sharp turn through the gates. Luckily the guards were able to open it on time.
After a while of driving I slowed down. "Where do you think we'll find all the supplies?" Dawson asked.
"Our house, obviously." Emma looked at me like I had a death wish. "What? I know where all those things are in my house. We'll be in and out in no time."
"Ava we can't-" Dawson was cut off and I made a sharp turn. Some pale man was standing in the middle of the road. Not safe buddy.
I parked the car on the side of the road and the man started walking up to me. He had a limp or something and I was scared I had hit him. Or ran over his foot.
"I'm so sorry! It's my first time driving and I didn't expect-" Dawson cut me off.
"Ava! What are you doing? Drive!" He grabbed the back of my seat. I was about to answer him but I heard a click and saw Emma holding up the gun.
"Emma! You can't kill someone!" I pushed the gun back down.
"Ava!" Dawson was still telling me to drive. What's wrong with them? I could have hurt this man.
I looked back at the man and saw he was only ten feet away from me now. I was about to ask if he was ok, but I soon realized he was not.
White was visible through the red stains on his shirt. His hair was out of control. His hand was missing, along with one of his shoes. The bottom of his shirt and pants were torn. His eyes were ice blue. His skin was so pale it had a green glow.
A zombie.
"What the hell?" I slammed my foot on the pedal as hard as I could.
A zombie in our town? What? This has to be some crazy tv show or something.
We kept seeing more and more of them as we drove. Emma was shotting them and Dawson was telling me where to go.
After about ten minutes we reached uptown. We went into multiple stores to get our supplies. We didn't have enough metal, and it was getting dark.
"Get your bags. We'll sleep on the roof of Tim Hortans." Sleep? Out here? I was starting to think everyone has gone insane and me hitting me head just brought me back to reality.
"Wait, so if Abby is in charge of us, and we're the last people alive, doesn't that mean she's the leader of all humans?" Dawson looked at me when I said Abby. Apparently no one called her that anymore.
"Yes." He looked at the stars.
"Why her?" If you would have asked me who I would have picked, it would have been her. But I knew her. A lot of people didn't.
"Well, she semmed to get more serious. She was the first one actually. She doesn't laugh anymore. She doesn't smile. She really doesn't have any emotions. Her top priority is to keep us safe." Dawsons eyes were sad. It must be wierd for him. Heck, it's probably wierd for everyone. I mean, Abby smiled and laughed all the time.
Dawson looked at me. "So when we voted on who should be in charge, you were the first one to raise your hand for Chief."
I remembered it now. The event replayed in my head, like a dream almost.

"We need a leader." We were in the gym and everyone looked serious and scared at the same time.
"Everyone should vote. I'll call you up one by one to be voted." Abby was about to speak again, but I cut her off.
"What about you?" I asked.
"What about me?" Abby tilted her head slightly.
"You should get a chance. Look what your doing now." I raised my voice for everyone to hear my next statement. I held my hand high in the air. "I vote Abby as our new leader."
Abby smiled slightly at me. I think it was the last time I saw her smile. Dawson raised his hand and slowly everyone raised thiers.
Abby was shocked. Dawson and Paylie looked so proud, and Aislynn was pounding the air with a single fist saying, "Yah Abby!"

I smiled at the memory. I looked over at Dawson and he looked confused.
"I remember." Dawson returned my smile.
"So there's hope of you remembering everything."
