The sun rose up and Tyler was the first to wake up, he looked to the side seeing that Evan was up ''Morning.'' he said happy they were all together at last. Evan looked over at him and nodded before getting up ''How is Craig's ankle?'' he asked walking over to sit in front of them, Tyler reached over trying not to move Craig's head to much and pulled his pant leg up ''Swelling's gone down.'' Tyler said and left the pant leg up and leaned on the wall again, Craig snuggled up into Tyler more, his glasses getting pushed a bit as he did so ''Think he'll be able to walk on it soon?'' Evan asked concerned and Tyler looked at Craig ''Not sure.'' he responded and looked back to Evan, they looked around hearing shuffling and saw Marcel push off the pillow sweater and rub his eye's, he yawned again and looked over to them.

''Sleep good?'' Marcel smiled ''I actually slept.'' Marcel said, being surprised ''Why is that surprising?'' Marcel looked over only to look at the ground back in front of him ''Haven't been sleeping well lately.'' Evan nodded ''Same.'' he looked over ''You didn't sleep did you?'' Evan turned around to Jonathan who asked and Evan just shook his head. Luke soon woke up and looked around seeing that most of them were awake ''Should a team go out or all of us?'' he asked waking up more with a yawn ''The last time we split up there was a massive horde and you guy's needed to wear zombie guts.'' Tyler simply said waking Craig and Lui up being a bit to loud. Luke sighed and got up ''Ok, we'll all head to the nearest store.'' he said and stepped up on the box looking outside seeing the ally was completely empty.

''I herd a siren around midnight.'' Evan explained looking over to him getting Luke's attention ''A siren?'' Evan nodded ''Y'know like an ambulance or a police car, couldn't tell which on it was.'' Luke looked back outside and looked towards the street seeing it was also empty ''You think someone saw us here and decided to help?'' Marcel asked and Luke shrugged ''Not sure, if that is what they did I wanna know why.'' he said stepping down ''Their nice.'' Tyler said getting up before helping Craig stand ''It's the apocalypse, isn't it weird for someone to be helping strangers?'' Marcel asked joining them ''Yeah but they did it.'' Luke shook his head ''They'll probably want something in return.'' Tyler looked at the other's who were getting up.

Once they were all awake enough to leave Luke opened the door, he aimed the shot gun down the ally to their left while Brian went over to the side of the building peeking around seeing it was clear still, the other's ran to where Brian was and he lead them across the street into a store with broken glass everywhere, Luke stopped Tyler from going as they herd a loud bang, the other's stopped hearing a car alarm going off as well, Luke peeked around looking down the street at the car seeing that the front window of a car got shattered and the alarm was now going off calling anything towards it. Luke looked at them ''We need to run over to them.'' he said and looked across before they he gave Tyler and Evan the go ahead, Luke looked around the street seeing it was still clear and saw the two got to the other side ''Come on.'' he said grabbing Marcel's hand but when they went to leave someone shot at their feet keeping them back.

Jonathan saw this and looked around for whoever shot and saw them on a roof nearby, he reached back grabbing Evans gun and stepped outside aiming up at the guy, he took the shot making the guy step back, Luke looked around seeing that the zombie's were already on their way and it was to late, Luke looked over to Jon ''Run!'' he yelled, Marcel looked behind them and went back to the door opening it ''Luke.'' he turned seeing zombie's running at them from the ally and got inside with Marcel pushing him back before slamming the door shut. Jon looked over seeing zombie's and not where the two went ''We need to leave.'' he said turning and they ran threw the store, they got out the back way and ran up the street, Evan looked back seeing that Brock wasn't carrying Craig and ran back ''Go.'' he said and picked Craig up getting him on his back ''But-'' ''Go!" he yelled and lifted Craig up. Brock ran to the guy's while Evan jumped a bit getting him ready to run.

Tyler looked back seeing the two were a bit behind and saw the zombie's gaining on them. He grabbed Brian's gun and stopped aiming back at them, he fired around them as Evan tried getting Craig  to them. Evan looked to the side before bringing Craig into the small store he saw, he put Craig down leaning on a wall while he shut the door and backed away ''What about the others?'' Craig asked. They ran down the street soon getting to a different building and shut the door behind them ''Great now we're all separated.'' Tyler urged turning around while Jon leaned on the door panting again, he then hit the door in anger before backing away and sighing.
