Y/N POV

I tried to make my way to my parents neighbourhood, and they were gone.

I was running through the neighbourhood until I saw a police car overturned and burnt out.

I ran over searching through to find a pistol as well as a combat knife, there were a few clips of ammunition which I stashed in my bag before running off again down the street.

Turning around the corner, I ran towards my house firing the pistol one handed at the few walkers coming down the street.

Nearly breaking my hand in the process...

Fuck...

That's not what they do in the movies...

But I'm eleven what would I know...

The house door was open...

I ran inside.

"EMILY! NICOLAS! SARAH! MATTHEW! ANNA! MUM! DAD!"

No replies except...

A grunt from the kitchen.

I ran down the hallway to see...

Anna...

No...

Two of the walkers were over her body...

Guts ripped out of her and strewn across the floor.

A blood red canvas across the wall.

I stood at the scene and barely was able to mutter...

"No..."

Tears flowing down my face.

The two figures turned to reveal their identities.

"Mum... Dad...no..."

They stood up and began walking towards me

Arms outstretched

Eyes devoid of life.

I raised the gun, quivering at the sight of them.

BANG!!!

My dad fell, his broken and beaten corpse now finally put to rest.

"I'm sorry I never made it in time Mum."

BANG!!!

She fell too, never to get up again.

It was too much...

I fell to my knees, the pain a bit too much...

There was grunting towards the door.

I turned to see a few walkers at the door.

Quickly I managed to throw the cabinet in front of the door barricading it.

I begrudgingly walked around the house.

My Dad's old haversack he used for hiking, hunting occasionally but hiking mainly.

I opened the medicine cupboard and took out a medkit packing inside a pair of painkiller bottles, a small bottle of amphetamines, a box of bandages, a pair of wound dressings, a box of antibiotics and another of morphine syrettes.

Inside his prep bag was a sleeping bag, a set of binoculars, a wind up flashlight, a compass, a map of west virginia with notes around the hunting spots he went to across the whole state.

The rest was typical camp stuff, a mess kit, a campfire kit, a multitool but way to complex, it had stuff like mini screwdrivers and serrated blades too.
