|Hero|

Chapter 1

*Ali's P.O.V*

It's been many days, weeks and months since I had been on my own. This whole thing has been new to me still even if it had been a while since this all happened. I absolutely hate being on my own. I wish I had some kind of partner with me so that this whole protecting myself would be so much easier in many ways. I absolutely have no one. I am all by myself and I am just trying to find some place to stay so that I can rest up.

I really need to find somebody out here in this world? Is there anyone out there that can help me? I completely doubt it but I would do anything to find someone.

Oh wait, I think I forgot to introduce myself to you all.

My name is Ali. Ali Peters, I was a student and was going to school but that was long ago. Now I am living in this unknown world and trying to protect myself. I had been doing a good job because I have all that I need. I have food and water and a few weapons. I have a knife if I ever needed it but I have a gun as well. I even have a pipe. I don't know why I have a pipe but it does come in handy for when I am fighting these weird creatures.

I was in the woods and was just roaming around, trying to find a hint. Maybe I can find someone and we can be with each other forever. I don't know but it's what I am hoping.

I had to be quiet though when I am out here because anything can happen. I don't want to be so caught and then someone tries to kill me. I can't die. I wanna live and save this world because that is what I need to do.

I was too busy walking around that I wasn't even paying attention to what had happened next. I saw them all coming. There wasn't much but there could be enough to take me down. I took my gun and shot one and then shot another. But I knew that I couldn't just do this by myself. I had to use my pipe next. My pipe was long and not that thick but it was thick and it was a great tool to have in this kind of a world.

I just stabbed them in the head and watched them get on the ground.

Something like that gets easier everyday because I am used to it.

There isn't much of my life when this shitty world had came. I was just living a normal life and then boom, it happened. It's been so long since I had been out here. I had been walking and walking and I never stop. But I really should take a break more often.

I wanna find a home.

I hate being by myself. I wanna be with people because the whole thing of being lonely is a terrible feeling.

Is there anybody out there that I can go to?

It's just another day.

I am all by myself trying to protect myself. I only killed a couple of those creatures today and it was easy.

There's nothing hard and wrong about protecting yourself. The only thing that you wanna do is know what is happening before. You wanna know if anything is going on so that you can be safe. You wanna be safe. You can't just try something and then let it go because then you won't be protecting yourself. You gotta be focused and do anything you can.

I had found a spot under a tree that will do for now of me just relaxing but I still had to pay attention to what's around me because anything can happen. Anything bad can happen. So I really need to look out for myself in this situation.

I was messing with a piece of paper that I had always kept with me. It was a letter from my mom. The letter is the only thing that I had left of her. She had died when this whole thing happened and I wasn't fast enough to save her. But I was able to keep a hold of this letter and I always read it when I think of her.

It was a nice reminder of her.

I fold it back up and put it in the bag that I had always carried with me.

I started to daze because I haven't been getting a lot of sleep lately. In fact, I don't even remember the last time I had slept. I had been awake for so long that it is just catching up on me and this is a normal thing. All I could see was a blur.

It wasn't so clear and the sleep was coming and then I fell asleep.

I didn't know what was happening. I was sleeping until I was woken up to some kind of sounds. What kind of sound is that?

I quickly got up and looked into the direction to where the sounds were coming from and then I saw them. The creatures or whatever they are called. Zombies? Walkers? Whatever.

There were like three but there was one that had caught me off guard and had tackled me to the ground. It was a struggle and I was trying to keep it away from my face because I wasn't gonna die today. No way in hell.

I pushed the walker's face even farther so that it wasn't close to me. I wouldn't allow it.

I didn't know this was gonna be a struggle. Just when I thought something bad was gonna happen, something just happened so fast. The walker or whatever it was that was on top of me and trying to kill me had stopped making noises and was shot in the head.

I quickly took it off me because I couldn't even stand the fact that it was even on my in the first place. It was gross.

Then I looked in front of me.

There was a boy. A boy that looked to be my age and he was wearing a cowboy hat and had a bandage around one of his eyes. He just saved me. I almost died but he saved me. He saved me from being killed.

"Hi. I'm Carl."

Well hello to anyone who decided to read this.

This is a new challenge for me. I am known to reading wrestling books and I have written a series based on this show but I now decided to challenge myself with a walking dead story. I will be providing much more content on this because this is a book and not a series.

I am hoping to capture the whole point of this book and as the book continues, you guys who are reading it can be able to understand why the book is called |Hero|. There isn't just one reason as to why it's called the name, there's multiple.

Ali is my original character and I hope to bring her story into this whole thing as well. What I mean by story is how she is the person she is.

Ali and of course Carl are the main two characters of this story and you will be following their story. There will be other characters mentioned and if you ever need help to know who is who then you can ask me or look it up. Your choice.

So in this chapter, you've learned just what Ali is all about right now but at the end, she met Carl.

In case you forgot Carl, I have a picture for you guys. (Even though he's in the cover, here's a clear one)

I hope that's better.

I didn't make the cover. I have the lovely @Little_MissBliss make it for me and she a great job on it. If you ever need a cover, go to her. Thank you again, girly.

I also wanna say that this book will be updated on Fridays.

I don't have much to say about this right now but as the story continues I hope to have much more stuff to say.

I hope you enjoy this story.

Vote, read and tell your friends and stay tuned for the next chapter.!!
