When life attacks

Chapter 3 On my own

Zada

I run off to the room. I open the door, I quickly grab my things, and I take someones flashlight, and another days worth of food for me. Baby can tell that I am tarafied, and sad. I grab her leash and head out the door. I run away from the hotel. They don't want me here. I see Ally runing after me. 

"Wait!" She shouts. 

I keep running. She catches up to me.

"You are 13 how are you supossed to survive this alone." Ally questions.

"I can think something up."

"But you have no way to get around." 

"I can walk."

I think Ally gives up on me because I am running, and I am not her problem. I dont know where I am going. I will figure it out. I cant go home, its too far. For all I know it could be crawling with zombies. I cant take that chance. I am still on the lot of the hotel. I try to run faster, to get away. For what ever reason I have a feeling that I am being chased by Sherri, and she is trying to kill me. I look behind me. Now i know why I think that, because she is chasing me. She has her sword ready. This might be my last day alive. I will get winded soon. I look around, not much. So I climb a tree. Its kinda difficult to climb because there there are not many branches untill you get closer to the top. She does not even try to climb the tree, yet. I keep clibing higher. I hope she cant see me, because I cant see her, and I really don't want her up here with me. I move a branch to try and get a better look. She is just stiting there right by the tree waiting for me to come down. I cant beleve that she is that murder driven. The only reason Baby got up here is because I put her in my bag, I am not letting Sherri kill her, or a zombie feast on her flesh. I feel her breath on my neck. I am looking for a safe place to sit, so i can still see Baby. I stand on a branch and put my back pack on my front so I can see her. I look down, Sherri is still there. I sit down. I look thu my bag for something to drop on her so she will leave so I can leave. I see movement down there. So I check. A few zombies are there, she is getting up to go to a safe place, I hope anyway. I zip up my bag, and put it in my bag. I put my knife in my pocket, blade down. I start to climb down. I think she gave up and went inside. I start to climb down. When I get to the last branch before I have to jump down. I look around, I still don't see Sherri. I hop, and take my knife out of my pocket. Then I take Baby out of my back pack. She look happy to be back on the ground. We start to walk. There is not much activity. I cant believe that all of them just gave up on me so fast. I continue to walk. I am off the lot now.

I am away from town. I have killed about 6 monsters. I am starting to miss having people around. I cant stop thinking about how its my fault that Cassidy died. That I did not kill the monster fast enough. Tears blur by eyes. I cant believe how I did it. Its starting to get dark, Baby and I are starting to get tied. We have walked about a mile and a half at least. If Baby could speak she would probably be saying, "come on we need to go somewhere safe and stay there for the night." But I still say we are too close to them, especially since she banished me, and wants to kill me. I wounder if there are any survivors out looking for new people to add to their group. I also don't feel like finding out because I don't want someone pointing a gun at my head saying they will kill me for whatever reason. I am super close to town, we cant stop this close. On the other hand, we are super tired. We need a place to relax. I look around, I see a Target, its not too far away. I am going to stay there.

I walk in, there are a few monsters, none of them seem so hungry, so they are less of a threat.I stab them in the head before they think to attack. I go upstairs, first thing I see is a starbucks, then all the carts, and past that is the juniors section. I walk around to see if anyone is here, nobody. I hear a growling coming from the elivator, but how would that happen, there is not enugh power to have the elevators working. I continue to walk, in the juniors section, all of a sudden it stars to get dark. I fall to the floor.
