Hope is Dead

Chapter thirty six

Jon opened his eye's seeing it to be a bit blurry, his head pounded as he sat up slowly, he shut his eye's breathing in before letting out and looked around hearing birds seeing it was morning, he looked down at his legs moving his feet seeing they were fine, he pushed off the damp ground and looked around rolling his arm's back having laid on a backpack for how ever long it had been, he looked around lucky to be breathing still. Looking around he herd the moans and groans up the hill where he fell from, he limped to the side and started climbing up the hill. When he reached the top he saw the train tracks. He got up and went to the tracks and followed them getting to a road. He looked up and down the road seeing it was completely empty.

He turned right and started going down the road, he stayed on the side not sure where he was going but he was hoping it lead to the others, looking around he noticed the trees in the distance and large fields before them. He took his water seeing a bit of dirt on it he pulled his sleeve down and whipped the dirt from the side's and lid. He then opened it and drank from it, that's when his stomach growled, he stopped and took his bag off digging threw it finding more chip's, he sat down on the side of the road and ripped the bag open, he leaned against his bag and ate the chip's.

Jon looked up and down the road wondering if the guys had the same luck as him, he was basically lucky to be alive still ''Jonathan?'' Jon turned around smiling and got up walking over  to hug Luke before collapsing into him ''I found you.'' he mumbled, Luke smiled and picked him up ''I got you, you don't need to worry anymore.'' Jon shut his eye's and leaned against Luke's chest before he herd him growl, Jon sat up looking at him wondering why he was growling, Luke then dropped Jon while disappearing, Jon sat up and looked around while everything around him fell dark ''Luke?'' he called out while his head spun around looking for his friend, he got up hearing the chuckles and laughs from his friends ''Tyler? Evan?'' he asked looking around not seeing anything.

Jonathan sat up panting from his heart beating fast and looked around seeing he was outside, in the dark, alone, he calmed his heart down and looked around not knowing where he was or how long he was out for. He pulled his leg's in as he backed up against a nearby tree and hugged his knee's close to his chest after taking his bag off setting it beside him. His stomach growled but he only pressed his head to his arm's moving them on top of his knees, he put his head back looking threw the leaves and branches at the moon lit sky being thankful for that at least, he looked around never feeling so alone. His heart felt low and his stomach felt like it was floating, he hated his position and where he was, he thought about where the guy's might be but erased that from his mind not wanting to know if they were in danger or if they were safe.

Every little noise terrified him, every thing moving in the woods, scared it was something coming for him specifically because he was something new in the woods, he never paid attention to Luke when they were out hunting, mostly because Jon didn't want to hunt and he kept telling Luke he wasn't gonna be in the woods at all in his future, he was biting his words now. He looked up the hill to his left sure they lead to the tracks but was scared to move until morning, he just stayed curled up in a ball against a tree. Afraid.
