"Mother!" Natalie yelled, trying to get her families attention

"Mother!" Natalie yelled, trying to get her families attention. "We are leaving now!" She yelled and started grabbing every food source and water bottle. She started then using the sink and filling up jars with water, only to hear a moan. She furrowed her eyebrows and looked up to see her mother there, only with blood covering her mouth, her eyes a deep red and her skin grey. Natalie screamed, causing the woman to growl and attack her. She pushed her mothers face away from her neck and pressed her hands against her shoulders to keep her teeth away. "No! No not you." She cried and before she knew it, she raised a gun and clicked the trigger.

The bullet went flying and soon into her mothers skull as blood flew into her mouth and on her face. She gasped and blinked away the tears as her mothers body went limp.

She pushed her away and started sobbing as she rushed to her father. She looked up to see her father on his bed, nothing but the upper half as he was growling and trying to roll off the bed.

Natalie sobbed as she held her mouth and she took a deep breath. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." She cried and that's when her body moved over to her father and she raised her gun with a shaky hand and pulled the trigger again.

She closed her eyes while biting her bottom lip and walked away, only for the moans and groans to fill the outside of the house and she cried harder.  "No, no, no." She cried and she gripped at her hair tightly.

And soon enough, the door busted open, walker after walker ran inside and tore at Natalie. They bit at her flesh, one by one as she screamed out in pain. But soon enough, the walkers started chocking. The blood splattering out of their mouths and Natalie cried at the amount of blood loss.

She made a noise of pain from her throat, and she got up and bandaged herself up. "You're not dying now." She told herself as she finished a stitch.

Wrapping the bandages around her body, she sniffled and took a deep breath. "Come on, you're going to be fine." She muttered and walked to her car with the food and water, and left her dead family behind.

They easily walked inside as Shane started commanded people. "Daryl, you cover the back." He stated and everyone came inside.

The girl stepped inside, scared of what was going to happen to her and she gripped onto a pillar. "Hello? Hello?" Rick called out.
