The Undead

Chapter 7

"Cameron in here!" Mar calls out to me I run into the room she went in pulling Alex with me. When we got in Mar slammed the door shut. "Here come help me push this dresser in front of the door," I nod and let go of Alex running up next to Mar pushing the dresser in front of the door. It's been a few minutes since Jackson died we all ran into a home but a handful of the undead followed us and more came out from the shots.

"Dammit!" I kick the wall angry that Jackson died. "Why the hell did he have to go?! Why couldn't we have all made it out of this alive?!" A few zombies start hitting the door trying to break in attracted by my shouting and the kick against the wall. I push against the door trying to keep the zombies off. "I swear to god if we survive this much but go down like this!" I yell out and look behind me seeing Mar and Alex huddled in the back Mar trying to calm Alex down since she was crying a bit.

"Shhh it's okay don't cry we'll be okay," Mar hugged Alex and smiled. That helped Alex and she stopped crying the zombies were there for a few more minutes until gunshots went off I looked at Mar.

"You think that's Jackson?" She shook her head.

"If it was there would've been a continuation of the gun shots from earlier," I sighed knowing she was right I sat against the dresser. Mar came over to me and sat down next to me Alex followed and sat on the other side of me.

"Alex you should sleep you must be tired," she didn't answer so I looked at her and she had already fallen asleep I laughed. "You too Mar I'll keep watch," Mar was also asleep they were both leaning against me. "I guess I'm a pillow tonight," I get comfortable a bit and try to stay awake keeping the door close making sure nothing happens. I had dozed off I woke up to shaking.

"Cameron I need to go to the bathroom," I could hear Alex whispering trying not to wake Mar.

"Huh what?" I ask looking at her still tired.

"I need to go to the bathroom," there was urgency in her voice.

"You need to go to the bathroom? That uh might be a problem," now awake I wanted to stand up but then again I don't want to wake Mar.

"Why's that I really need to go too!"

"Well what's behind that door?" I point to a door that was in the room I stand up moving Mar a bit and gently laid her head on the ground.

"I don't know I wanted to wake you and ask," I look outside a window while she was talking it was still raining but I could tell it was day.

"Alright we can check it out together stay behind me," she nods and moves behind me while I walk up to the door I slowly open it seeing a dead body on the ground with a gun near it. "Stay back really quick," I say to her moving into the room now it was a bathroom but I don't think she'd wanna come in here I grab the gun next to the body pocketing it and close the door. "We're gonna have to find somewhere else for you to go."

"Why's that? I really have to go!"

"Someones using it right now," she nods understanding.

"Well can we wait for them to come out," I shake my head.

"No they'll be in for a long time," she nods.

"So we go find another one right?" She asked me looking up at me.

"Exactly we'll have to wake Mar up. You wake her up I'll get us ready," she nods and runs over to Mar lightly shaking her.

"Mar wake up! We have to go find a bathroom," Mar jolts awake when Alex shook her.

"What? A bathroom?" She sat up looking around she groaned then saw the other door. "What about this room?" She went to open it but I grabbed her arm.
