We were relaxing at a house we found in a small town figuring out where we are at so we can continue on to California. I was watching Murphy and Doc playing cards and I saw Murphy place an ace in his sleeve. He looked up and saw me watching and I just smile and wink telling him his secret is safe with me. Everyone thinks Murphy is a dick which he is sometimes but honestly he just protects me. He even told me he thought of me as a daughter he never had. We were listening to the radio too when Citizen Z came on.

"Friends, I'm talking about mean weather coming in fast. Some reports of tornados. Find shelter and take cover. It's dangerous out there more so than usual. Now back to the soothing sounds of the Apocalypse." said Citizen Z.
"You know after he was so wrong about that chopper, weatherman's a pretty good job for that geek." said Mac
"You're up." Cass said as she was going to sleep after watch.
"All good? Peaceful night." Warren asked as she was waken up.
"Autumn's stalker said there's a storm front coming in." said Murphy talking to Warren.

"Shut Up Murphy!" I said stick my tongue out.
"Okay, you two knock it off." said Warren
We are back on the road again and the weather looks like it's getting worse. We turned on the radio and listen to Citizen Z.

"In our continuing effort to bring you up to the minute information, we at Z-TV have acquired a National Weather Service satellite that they aren't using anymore.But that's not important.We now go to John Smith, southern weather correspondent to get his opinion on the story. This is the badassest storm this weatherman has ever seen. From the Gulf of Mexico right up the Mississippi Valley, trouble is brewing. I don't know if they call this thing a turricane or a tornado or what. But if you're anywhere south of Chicago or east of the Rockies, I'm issuing a get your butt in a bunker warning. Hey, I hope you guys are getting this. Autumn and friends. You guys got to seek shelter immediately because this is bad and when you seek shelter immediately, you need to contact me and tell me where you are. And I'll update you with further instructions.Okay? All right, well this is Citizen Z, and I'm signing off."

"So which way do we go?" Asked Doc.

"The storm is pushing north from the gulf." Said Charlie

"If we make it to the I-70, we can outrun it." Said Warren

"That storm is going faster than this craptastic truck ever will. We got to get off the road." Said Charlie

"You heard Citizen Z. We got to seek shelter." Said Mac.

"What we need is to get the hell out of here. I ain't stopping just cuz some punk with a satellite says so." Said Warren.

"Okay, hang on.Am I missing something? You did not drag my ass this far so that mankind's hope could get sucked up by a tornado, did you?" Said Murphy

"Hey, Autumn. You know you've been quiet. Just want to make sure you're okay." Said 10k

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just, you know, zombies." I Said

"They have bothered you before." Said 10k

"Castle Point. That's your hometown right?" Asked Charlie

"Whoa. Look at that storm coming in." Cass Said.

"Okay, fine. You win." Warren said as we turned into Castle Point.

"Welcome home, Roberta." Said Charlie

"So you know this town?" I Asked Warren.

"Born and raised here."
"We need to take cover. Is there someplace safe nearby?" Asked Mac.

"Yeah, there's a storm cellar in my house." Said Warren

"How close by is your house?" Asked Charlie
