"Fuck" I cannot believe I was that stupid. There were at least a hundred zombies coming through the gate. "Well we're fucked"

"No, I know a way out" 10k hastily led us away from the hoard.

"How big is this damn camp" Doc seemed to be getting a bit winded and so was I this whole place is huge. We were nearing a way out when at least fifty more Z's turned the corner. A decision had to be made fast and no one could come up with one. I started running one direction while 10k and Doc ran the in the other. I don't think they realized I wasn't there. I wanted to turn around but I was already blocked off. Running as fast as I could turning and swerving, dodging Z's and bullets, I came to a hole in the fence. I ran towards it and somehow made it out alive. The only downside of this situation is now I'm alone. I reached for my walkie and.... nothing. I must've dropped it. Shit.  Not again I just got him back. He was right there. Did they even make it out alive. I didn't know. The terrifying feeling of the unknown fills me with dread. Before I know it I start to cry. I know if I stay here I'll die and if there is the chance I will find them I can't do it unless I get moving.
   
    Warren told Doc and I where they would be so naturally that is my first destination. They are supposed to be waiting at an abandoned hotel. It's going to take a day to get there which isn't ideal. Everything is quiet... too quiet. Maybe I'm just paranoid. I just want Tommy back. My Tommy. I miss him so much. I want him. I get so absorbed in thought I forget what's going on around me. As fate would have it a Z grabs onto me and pulls me down. "GODDAMNIT GET THE HELL OFF OF ME" Yeah like it's going to listen to me. "Not today. IM NOT DYING TODAY!" Determination fills my body as if I'm part of undertale. I use all the force I could muster and kick the Z hard in the abdomen. I hop up and smash its head in with my foot. "Not today bitch" I say while laughing. Tommy would be proud. I will make it back to him. I know it. Him and the others are probably waiting for me right now. Probably right? I hope.

    There it is. After a shit ton of walking here I am. I don't see the car though. They wouldn't... they didn't... did they. Could they have left me? Thinking I'm dead? No they are probably just out looking for me. Right? No. I can't accept the fact that they left me. Can't anything just go my way for once. Just once. Apparently not. Where do I go from here. I don't have anyone. The possibility that I may never see them again scares me. I'm afraid being alone. I hate it.

    "Oh my god...Cassandra" A lonely Z is walking in my direction and that Z is none other than Cassandra. I walk over to her and hold my gun up to her head. "I give you mercy" Then just like that she fell to the ground... dead. That means they were here but just got chased off. I wonder if Tommy and Doc got to them before they left. I just hope they're safe. Why did I have to go the other way. I should've just followed them. But nope I just have to make things difficult. I hate myself. This is torture.

    I just start walking not knowing what to do next. All I know is we were on our way to California so that's the way I'm going to head. Hopefully I run into everyone along the way. Only in a perfect world would that happen and this definitely is not a perfect world. Far from it. I wonder if this will ever end. If not... then what's the point of living. I feel like I'm dying. It hurts. So much. It's almost unbearable. Being away from the one I've fallen in love with. I'm convinced I'll see him again. Sometime very soon. I'll make sure of it.

    It's getting dark and I'm still walking. Waiting for a miracle. That's when I see it. The truck. Our truck. Crashed into the side of a tree. "Shit what happened here" I say while cautiously approaching the vehicle. No signs of blood meaning everyone should be okay. Nothing left inside though. That would have slowed them down meaning they should be close. Or at least I hope. There is an old gas station a little bit up the road. I figure I'll stay there for the night. It's really cold. Usually I have Tommy by my side. Holding me. But now I'm surviving on own. Without his protection.

    In the morning I continue to walk. I cross this large field that the road wraps around to save a bit of time. I stick close to the tree line. I'm halfway across when I hear rustling. I proceed with caution. I feel a hand grab at my wrist I turn and swing. He fell to the ground with a thud. Then I realized what I hit wasn't a zombie. "Oh my god!"
