The Beginning of the End

Chapter Seven

The four wandering dead started walking towards Tate, Molly and I with their hands outreached and their rotting mouths wide open. Their was three boys and one girl. The girl was wearing a blue sort of gown which indicated that she was a nurse of some sort. I told Molly and Tate to go back inside the house untiul I told them it was safe to come out. Tate backed away into the house but Molly stayed. She must be one brave twelve year old.

The dead were getting closer and the closest was about a meter and a half away. I had a small kitchen knife at the ready and so did Molly. We were now back to back. The closest was half a meter away now and I left our little huddle and jumped over to the rotting body and drove my small knife into his half open head.

The other wern't to far away now either. The girl was the furthest away at about thirteen meters. The two males that were left were about the same distance away and they were coming at the same pace. I looked over at Molly and she was looking right back. She nodded and then i heard her mumble a few quick words. "One, two,..... three" She said and we both left tour stance of being back to back and both went to one of the two males and ended their missery. They both fell to the ground like a sack of potatoes. There was only one mangled dead left. She wasn't far away. Her clothes were ripped and she only had on arm and one bloody stump. Her good arm was reaching out to us and by now she was so close. Molly turned around to look at me and i screamed. Molly didn't move in time. The corpse had graped her by her hair and was pulling her towards her gaping mouth. I screamed and Molly screamed. I ran towards the corpse and fell right on top of it and drove my tiny knife hard into it's skull. Molly's hair was relieved of the corpses grip and Molly fell to the ground in tears. I tried to pull my knife out of the bodys skull. It wouldn't budge. I didn't even bother trying. We had plenty more and my main worry now was Molly and her well being.

I followed the path and walked over to her. She was shaking and her face was red and puffy from crying. She had tears streaking down her face. Iembraced her in a hug a softley piulled her inside. Tate was sitting on the couch in the other room and he cam running over to us. He also gave Molly a hug. I got her a drink and a little something to eat. We decided to stay the night for Molly's sake. And maybe for all of ours. The night wen't by fast with out any troubles. The street filled with dead again and we could consantly hear soft car alarms in the background. Now was the perfect time to think about everything.

*Next day*

We all woke up around the same time and had breakfeast really quickly. I approached Molly about what had happened the night before. She told me she had forgotten about it and said that I should too.I tried really hard to but I kept thinking that maybe I wasn't strong enough to keep this group safe. To keep my brother safe. We packed up our thiungs and got ready to hit the road again today this time with out any troubles hopefully.
