The Last Of Us

Chapter Five : Sanctuary

Seeing more of us really relieved me. I didn't care to think twice about them. Letting people in might be dangerous, they might harm us or kill us or do whatever they want. When i told everyone about them,none of them hesitated to let them in.

I told Aaron and Jared to go and bring them in. Soon they were here and i could see a familiar face. I just can't remember who that is but I know him. They all sat down on the couch and i told tell that they were grateful to us for letting them in. I just noticed that they had a kid with them. A kid who might be 11 years old.

I observed every one them and then my eyes were stuck on that boy. He's wearing a black jeans with a black loose T-shirt, small curly brown hairs and emerald green eyes. My eyes were on him when his eyes wearing looking around the living room and landed on me. This green eyes met my blue ones and I remembered who he was.

He slowly got up and started walking towards me. He was only two feet away and then he stood in front of me. Finally he spoke.

"Emily." He said in his bold voice and wrapped me with his arms for a hug.

The moment he spoke, i was sure that it was him. It was him. I don't know how he recognized me but he did. It's been so many years.

"Harry," I said,without wasting any time." How did you recognize me? It's been so many years."

"How can I forget my babygirl?"he said.

"I missed you." I said.

"I missed you too." He replied.

We slowly pulled back from the hug and realized that everyone was looking at us. I can tell everyone was thinking the same thing that how I know him.

"Guys,it's Harry. We were in High school together. He moved to London with me but for some reasons we lost each other's contacts." I said and smiled at harry.

"We found Harry unconscious and we took him in. We where living together but then some people got in and tried taking our supplies. However, we took whatever we found and escaped. They killed a lot of us." The man in a black leather jacket told.

"Why would they kill their own kind?" I asked.

"Because the more people stay alive, the more quickly supplies run out. Finding supplies in town in hard as most places are filled with the dead."

"We haven't gone outside from the day it all started. We are living on what we have in this whole building." Lori said.

"Soon we will run out." I pointed out.

"It will. I'm Harlan by the way, and this is Maggie,Glenn, Emma and her son Carl."

"I'm Emily. These are my friends Loraine,Aaron, these are my brothers Josh and Jake. And that's Jared, it's his apartment." I introduced oursleves.

"We heard on the radio about a Sanctuary. Made by the military to keep people there so the infection or whatever won't spread." Glenn said.

"A sanctuary? We should go then, it will be safe." I said.

"But it's on the other side of this city. We have to travel there."

"What do you guys say? Should we go?" I asked.

"I don't know Em. What if it's not safe?" Aaron said.

He called me Em?I can't remember when was the last time he called me Em. Suddenly he's acting so weird. Is something wrong with him?

As I was getting lost in my thoughts harry snapped me out."You can't stay here forever. It's not safe here either. What if those men come and kill you or you run out of supplies?"he said.

"Harry's right guys. We are not safe here." I said.

"We should go." Jared said.

Jared hasn't spoken to anyone since Bethany died. It's the first time he spoke.

"Fine." Aaron said.

"We should take all important things like food, medicines and clothes." Harlan said.

"We should move in the night. It will be easy for us to sneak around without being seen." Glenn said.

"Okay." Aaron said and walked into the room with Lori to pack things.

I don't talk to anyone else. I just walked and sit by the window.I don't actually know what is right and what's not. More people like us are alive who are in a sanctuary. This whole apocalypse thing is bad, I'm worried but also happy that I found my brothers and harry.

"Maybe the other cities and countries are okay. Maybe the infection didn't spread there and we can travel somewhere else. Make a home there and start living again." I said to harry as he walked and sat beside me.

"Maybe. Are you scared?"he asked.

"I am. I really am. Maybe all this is just a dream and I'll wakeup in my bed." I sighed.

"I wish it was but it's reality Emily. We have to get used to this." He gave a fake smile.

I smiled back.

It's been a few hours that I talked with harry. Since then I'm lying in the bed thinking about what can happen. I want all this to end happily.

I feel my cheeks getting hot and a small drop of tear slide down the side of my face.

"Emily?" I heard a voice. It was Aaron's.

"I'm fine." I said and got up.

"It's time for us to leave." He said.

I got up,took my bag and walked to the living room. I see everyone's ready to go and when we were about to leave Harlan stopped us.

"We need to protect ourselves. Everyone take one." He said and laid a bag on the table.

He unzipped the bag and my god. It had guns in it. I wasn't scared, but I was excited. I knew how to handle guns.

"I used to be a cop. So, i took guns from the police station before anyone else could.Can you handle it?"Harlan asked me while handing a shot gun.

"I can." I smirked. I knew how to. My father was a cop too and I saw him use his gun.

We all took guns and we escorted towards the main exit of the building. Aaron and Jared slowly moved the barricades from the door and opened it.
We saw a group of probably 7 people were standing.

"Close the gate!" Harlan shouted when those men tried to enter.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Those heartless men are here. Do you think anyone is gonna die?

Also, i couldn't hold my wild fangirl side in and I descried Harry as Harry Styles from One direction and kept those other characters name as the walking dead's  characters.

Nevermind. Happy reading.❤
