Chapter 4

Embers POV:

“PORTER!!!!” I scream, he screams in pain as we all rush to him. “What do we do?” asks Julian. “Ok guys on 3 we are all going to push the creature up”, I say. 1….2….3... We lift the creature up and roll it to the side. I kneel down to him, “show me where it hurts” “m- my leg he stutters out” “this is going to hurt”, I say. I push on the leg feeling for any broken bones, I feel the broken part as he lets out another scream of pain. “It’s definitely broken” I take a shirt from the bag and wrap it around his leg as a make-shift cast. He uses me for support as I help him up. We all walk in silence for about 3 miles when Julian interrupts the silence. “What the hell is that?!!” he yells. Everyone looks at him. “What?” I ask, in the distance a little figure is walking around in circles with razor sharp teeth and dagger like claws. I go up to it and it starts screeching. I quickly stab it with my knife. “Why did you kill it?” asks Logan. “It was a smaller creature and it was calling for others”. “So that means there is more?” asks Jillian “Yes, a lot more”, says Porter. “We have to go now!!” I say. BOOM!! “They’re coming” I say. Julian picks up Porter and we all start running. I load my m-14 and start shooting killing 2 creatures and injuring 3. We finally make it out of the desert and catch our breath. Porter sit on a rock then pulls out water and throws it to me. I drink part of it then pass it Julian. Soon we all finish the bottle. We all cool off then start walking again. I go to kill a creature when Logan stops me. “It’s not doing anything wrong”, he says. “Logan we have to kill it” “no, no we don’t” he says. “Ok” I say. Lindsey and I make eye contact; she quickly and silently kills the creature. “Guys is that what I think it is”, says Jillian. She points ahead to a big bridge. “Oh my Gosh it is!!” I say. I see sign that has Cross at your own risk written on it. Then under that it says Welcome to the Golden GateBridge. “We made it to San Francisco guys!!” says Porter.

“What’s this?” says Lindsey, as I read it. Please help single mom 1 child at the end of bridge. “Is the bridge stable?” asks Logan. “It is the Golden Gate, of course it’s stable”, I reply. “Then why does it say cross at own risk?” I shrug. We all start walking on the bridge when I’m stopped by Porter’s arm. I look down and see that half of the bridge is gone. “Well guys I guess that we are going to have to walk on the outside of the bridge on the post” “What about Porter asks Jillian?” “I got him” says Logan. “Ok” I respond. “Everyone get in the middle we are going to have to split up to keep the bridge balanced” “So Group 1 is with me, so Lindsey and Julian come over here, Group 2 is with Porter, so  Logan an Jillian.” ”If we get separated just keep heading towards the city” I lift myself up then help Lindsey and Julian up. Once I make sure that Porter, Logan, and Jillian are up I start walking. “Hey Ember” I look over at Porter. “Make sure you don’t fall and lose your pants” he says with a smirk. I give him the middle finger and hear him laugh. “MY PANTS DID NOT FALL OFF!!!” I yell back. ‘They almost did” he says. “What was that about?” Lindsey asks. “When Porter and I were at the safe zone some kid decided to kick his soccer ball up in between the beams, so of course he starts crying and won’t calm down until someone gets it down, so me being the nice person that I am, I climb up to the very top and throw the ball down, he stops crying and walks away. Well I didn’t think of how I was going to get down so I kinda just sit there for like an hour until my best friend Draven was like Em what the hell are you doing up there? Long story short I jump down my pants get caught so I was stuck hanging in the air and the side of my pants ripped causing me to fall, luckily Draven caught me or I would have been dead or paralyzed.” “Yes I’m not the only one who falls off of ceilings!!” says Lindsey.  “Wait what!?!?” I ask “she tends to fall off of things a lot” replies Julian. “She fell off a tree like last month”  “You ok?” I ask with a smile “yep just a few bruises” she says,
