We hid in the shrubs waiting for the terror.

We knew it was coming but we didn't know where or when.

The bush next to Zane started to rustle.

Fear exploded inside of me, we can't die.

Not now. I still need to get to my sister.

I slipped past Zane and sprinted home, passing the destroyed Smiths house, then the ravaged Jones. Finally, I arrived home.

I burst through the already crumbling door rushing up the creaky stairs that seemed as if it were about to break.

The weird thing was that there was a giant blood stain.

I scrambled to Julie's room, passing my mum who was blacked out on the couch.

Once at her closed door I slowly pushed it open to see Julie lying on her bed with sweat running down her forehead, the discoloration evident.

"Come on, pack your bags, we're leaving now."

"Is mummy coming with us?" Julie croaked with a frown on her face. I kept silent.

"We can't just leave her!" Julie sluggishly stood up holding the headboard for support.

How can I tell her? By the looks of the house, it looked as if they have already attacked our home. There was no chance mum could still be alive. But how is Julie not affected?

"EVELYN!"

"I'm here!"

Zane appeared next to the doorway. His right hand holding his left shoulder. Blood was violently gushing out. In his left hand was a pistol.

"Did you find Julie?"

"Yep. Did you get attacked?"

"No, I wild fox jumped out of a bush while I was running here."

"Oh good, I think mum didn't make it, but she did," I said pointing to Julie.

"Was she bitten?" Zane said warily looking passed me to Julie.

Julie backed away. "Who is he?"

"Don't worry, he's a friend" I stated softly.

Julie visibly relaxed but was still a bit tense, her hand quickly shot to her head as she fell to her knees screaming.

"WHAT'S GOING ON!?" I yelled at Zane

"She's turning..."

"WHAT!"
