Zombie Apocalypse with teens

Chapter 12

  I wake up to the comfort of his arms around me, but I do a little check up on his wound, and it looks completely healed. One less thing to worry about in my life.

  Rose and Zack are still sleeping, very closely might I add, and I can't help but chuckle softly at the sight. They are such interesting people, bringing themselves together in the midst of disaster, much like me and Troy.

  I go over to our makeshift kitchen and grab a can of peaches, and wash a spoon softly with some water. I dig in and go outside to check out the surrounding area. It seems quiet, until I hear moans.

  Only a couple zombies are around, about maybe 5, hitting on the fence, so I grab my knife, and take them out. Does this world really need guns anymore? They all seem to be gone.

  I hear the others wake up, and decide to go out for a run, but really what I want to find out, is who was on that speaker, and what is in that contraption. I decide to take them all with me, and we take everything of ours, that we would miss if someone stole, which is everything.

  We're lightweight, since we have a mini golf cart, that is very very slow, and you can barely hear it at all. I put in all of our stuff, and the others hop in.

  "What are we going to look for exactly?" asks Rose.

  "I found something last time I went out for a run, i want to check it out, but I needed backup to do anything."

  "Alright, lets go then." 

  We set off, and what we find is nervewrecking. Humans, so many of them, in white robes, looking over DNA samples. And what I see isn't great, what I see, is the world being destroyed.

  I see a paper drift by and grab it...I start reading it.

   All of the samples and DNA from the Genetic Code 306 injected into human population has come back positive. To be used as a war weapon in case of emergency, it is a great alternative. Zombies are to be captured immediately, and any other humans alive to be captured and put in with rest of samples to reproduce.

  How can this be. How. In the world, can someone be so cruel as to turn them into zombies. But my worry now is, if they will put as they told us. i am too young for this, and all of us need to put a stop to this, but how?

  "Look what the zombies are surrounding, it looks likea chip, what if that can turn everyone back?" Rose says, and I'm astonished to hear her say something like this, she's not exactly the smartest cookie in the box.

  "We could try to get it, but out here in daylight, we're as good as dead" I say. Troy looks scared and worried, but about what...?

  "Troy, why are you so worried back there?" Zack asks.

  "I know why they did this, and I know how to stop it." Troy says.

  "It all started when the government needed a better war weapon, and fire power wasn't enough for them. They decided to create Genetic Code 306 to inject on a sample person, and that sample person, got loose. They never intended to spread it to innocent people, but it happened. Within weeks, it started spreading fast, like wild fire. The only way to stop it, is to gather that chip, and plug it in to a working computer. The Genetic Code 306 has the code in everyone that gets bitten, and they can track their movements whenever needed" Troy explains.

  I am totally oblivious to this, and also infuriated.

  "Troy, why didn't you tell us this before? We could've stopped this madness before it spread!" I exclaim.

  "That is, because I was one of them, and I was convicted if I ever told anyone. That is, until I quit, without them knowing, so I can tell everyone. But it was too late." Troy explained, his eyes pleading for me to forgive him.

  I suppose I understand, but now how are we supposed to get the chip? I think to myself. I have a plan, but it's reckless.

  "Here's what we are going to do: We are going to see when they shut down for the day, and don't have security up. When they lock up the zombies, we go in, check out the container, see what we're up against, and get out. Look around for food and goods around here, we might not leave back to the house for a while." I say.

  They all nod their head in agreement, but Zack doesn't seem too convinced.

  "Anything you want to change Zack?" I ask.

  "No, this plan is perfect. You're a genius." He says.

  We move in, and check the schedules. Closing time is in a few hours, so we head to the next open town in the area. We check it out, get some food and water, and camp out till we go.

  -6 hours later-

  We moved in, and everything was fine, till something blew up in the underbrush behind us. Alarms went viral.

  I crouched down and checked out the container, took a copy of everything it said, and got very lucky to get out of there. I sent the others back, so that if I got caught, they could carry out with the mission.

  I didn't get caught, and we headed back to the safe house as soon as possible. But, zombies were around the fence.

  We took them out, entered the house, nothing changed, and we laid down to rest. I couldn't resist reading everything, and then I understood. But someone's name was on there. Zack. And, he was the mastermind behind it all.

Author's note: Hey guys! I am so sorry I didn't add notes these past few chapters, I didn't have much to say, until now. Did you guys like this cliffhanger? C: It's great isn't it?
