Zada

I am sitting home alone, on my computer. I am watching Netflix as always. I hear a loud noise, I know it is just my imagination trying to scare me. It happens again, I grab my brothers baseball bat, so that if it is an intruder. I head downstairs and look out the peep hole. Nobody. I check my dad's office, then the londry room, then my brothers room. Nobody. I head back upstairs, so I can get on my laptop. I plop down, and click new tab, Facebook. There are lots of new posts, my family and friends. Most of them are saying "I love you all, survive." Now I am worried. No parents, and my brother is not here, and I see facebook posts saying good luck. What is happening? I call my mom, no answer. So I call my dad.

Dad: "Hello?"

Me: "Dad, what's going on?"

Dad: "I don't know, they are not letting us out, and they wont tell us what is going on."

Me: "What do I do? I'm all alone, for all I know-"

The call is dropped, now the emergency sirens are going off. They are telling us to stay inside, lock the doors, and windows, take cover. I run upstairs, and grab my dog, my laptop, my cellphone, a charger, and some food and water. My dog, she is only a pup, so she is tiny, and light weight. I do as I am told, I lock the doors and windows, and head downstairs. I hear my phone go off, its a text from my best friend.

Hey Zada, I need to know that you are alright, that u will survive

Hey Cassidy, ya whats going on. Im at home, alone.

Zada, we are coming to get you, be ready. Everything you need.

Okay see u when u are here, can I bring my puppy?

Yes, anything you need.

I grab all of my stuff, including my dog, baby. She is a baby Siberian huskey, she is so fluffy. I run upstairs. Cassidy is already here, in the car. Now I see why people are saying stuff like survive. I see the dead, all around me. What do I bring to not get bit.

"Come on Zada hury!" Cassidy yells.

I go into my kitchen and grab a large, sharp knife. I open the door and run outside, Baby is on her leash. One comes up behind us, I take my knife, and quickly stab it in the head. I have watched so many zombie shows, that I know how to survive. They are parcked in the driveway. I open the back door to he jeep. Baby hops in first, I follow.

"Awwwe! Who is that cutie?" Cassidy's mom asks

"Its my new puppy. We call her Baby." I explain.

"Well we will need Baby, there will not be much cute left in this world"

I smile.

"So where are we going to be safe?" I ask.

"Nowhere is safe anymore, but for now we can stay in a hotel, a nice hotel." Cassidy's mom tells us.

"Well we will be living in luxury for a while."  Cassidy points out.

I look out the window, we are about a block away, Baby is getting nervous, but she is still wagging her tail, but she is sheding like crazy. Now she is starting with her tiny barks, she is trying to scare them away, but it is not working.

"Is she okay, because we could be zombie food if she is this loud at camp." Cassidy suggests.

"Ya, I think she is scared of both the zombies and the car ride."

"Then why didn't you leave her if you knew she would freak out? " Cassidy asks.

"How humane does that sound, I would never leave her behind." I protest.

"Ya, its like how I knew you would be scared, Cassie, but I brought you anyway." Her mom explains.

I look out the window, we are headed into town. Baby knows where she is so she is wagging her tail super hard.

"So what did you bring?" Cassidy asks.

"Laptop, phone, chargers, canned food, cloths, food and some treats for Baby, a jacket, some water, and a knife." I list off.

"Nice." Cassidy responds.

I look out the window, it is not that infested. I expected for all over here to be a war zone. I see a zombie feasting on a little girl, she look about seven. It could be the parents. Its only been going on for maybe an hour now but bugs are everywhere. I hope we will be able to shower, because of how much blood and bugs we will be covered in. I already know. Baby starts to growl, there is a zombie super close to her window, and it looks hungry. I grab her and hold her. I try to imitate the zombie, see the reaction. I don't think it cares. It follows us for a little wile, then i think it gives up, and tryes to get different prey. It gets really hot in the car, probably because it is mid summer. I don't want to ask for air conditioning because it wastes gas, which we will need, so I put my long hair into a messy ponytail. I look over at Cassidy her long blonde hair is messy, I dont understand how she is not hot. I look back at Baby, her tongue is hanging out of her mouth. I can tell she will take down some zombies.

"Who's my cute little murder?" I whisper to her.

She looks at me, perks her ears up and tilts her head to the side. I cant help but to say "Awwe." She is so adorable.

I clutch my knife, we are stopped at a hotel.

"Hello new temporary home." Cassidy sighs.

I look around, there are more zombies here then there was at my house.

"Am I the only one that has something to kill zombies with?" I question.

"No I brought a knife too, mom brought a sword."

I nod, putting my backpack on. I grab Baby's leash, its still on her, I am going to have to have her really close to me. She could be the only family I have left.

"Are we ready to go in yet?" I question.

"Is everyone comfortable with how they will be running in?" Cassidy's mom asks.

Cassidy and I nod. She grabs he sword, and gets it ready.

"Lets go." Cassidys mom demands.

I open my door, and hop out there is a zombie just waiting to bight me, but i'm not scared. I raise my knife, and stab it right in the eye, dark blood gooses out. I pull my knife out, and push the zombie back. Its head hits the concrete hard, i step on its head, it cracks, with blood and brain running out of its body. Now they are all cumming for me. Baby hops out of the car, and starts to bark her little bark. One is coming from the side, trying to sneak up to me, I don't fully look at it but I stab it. I look over, I hit it right in the brain. I take my knife out. It falls down. I walk over to the building, my bloody knife in one hand, Baby's leash in the other. I feel something pulling at my bag, I look at it, the stupid thing is trying to eat my back pack and not me. I kick it back, then I turn, and stab its head. I run up to the building, I am way behind, because i am all going kill crazy, and they are trying to get into a nice room. So I run up to them. Cassidy gives me a high five. We walk in, the place is mostly empty. There are a few here and there. 

"What room should we take?" Cassidy asks.

"45." I sugjest.

Cassidy nods and grabs a key. We walk around, its on the bottom floor, so is the pool and where the buffet is. We walk in, it is huge. There is a bedroom with two beds, a couch that folds out into a bed, a full kitchen, with food in it, and we live next to a pool. I Walk around slowly, nothing. I close the door. and pet Baby, it relaxes her if I pet her in a cirten way. I make her fall asleep in my lap. She must be burning up, because I am wearing a tanktop, shorts, and convers. I must have been tired, because I get woken up by a knock on the door. I get up, grab the knob, and look out the peep hole, with my knife in my other hand. Its two people.
