Off in the distance we heard a shriek an terrible shriek of the devilish being it didn't sound to far so we begin to move again.My mother was driving this time due to my injury the previous night my sister was in the back peering out the window from time to time trying to get a glimpse of the creature who made the noise, I looked back into the bag that griffin has given me inside was some more water food extra arrows and a gun. I could tell it was a silenced pistol due to the barrel on its tip. My mother looked over and said to put it under the seat in case of a emergency and so I did then griffin lowered his window and pointed ahead to the Costco ahead of us telling us that was our next stop . According to the Bunker owners the bunker wasn't much far and as a day or two away so we all as a group pulled into the Costco parking lot .

Welp,said griffin time to get supplies grab all the frozen food and drinks you can stop in the medicine isles and load everything into a cart we should be good I don't see any way of entry for one of the monsters but just Incase be armed. We entered the store and I could see my little sister asking griffin to escort her to the candy isle,griffin nodded and joked that they should go to the toy isle too my sister took him serious and off they went. I personally took a cart and went to the electronics center and got all the cameras phones and computers that I could then I made my way to the back of the store and picked up some coolers and headed off to get some drinks I could see griffin and my sister heading out to unload and I did the same griffin looked at me and said cameras that's a smart idea kid , hey griffin I said? He looked at me and asked, isn't that a u-haul truck griffin looked at the truck and said well what do u know, he called over to the news cast guy Todd who claimed he could hott wire the car.

Griffin had told me to go back inside and collect more stuff and so I did. I went towards the back because they usually had pet supplies and pretty big/comfy dog bed which my sister fit perfectly in then in the corner of my eye I saw movement quickly drawing my bow I saw blood. There it was to my surprise two baby huskies and the decayed mother in the corner I put my bow away and picked them up setting them in the cart and filling it with bags full of dog food and bowl collars and leashes, I'm keeping these two regardless of what they say, looking around everyone else had almost gotten everything useful ranging from bed. Sheets to mattresses clothes and food I walked past the diner area and went pale dead in my tracks griffin walked over to ask what I had when he saw the two baby puppies sleeping in the dog bed, Tyler this is great he said we need dogs, I quickly motioned to hush him then pointed into the kitchen a gray skinny figure hunched back starting at us his pitch black eyes and his slender arms with a big old slender hand . I couldn't se wit but I knew his eyes followed us as we exited the store I loaded the big dog bed into the back of our car my sister jumping onto it saying thank you then gasped when she saw the two baby huskies sleeping in it she they laid down and slept beside them I loaded the dog food into the u-haul then drew my bow as griffin looked at the direction I was aiming he told us to get in the car and drive . From inside the store we could see the tall slender man with the hunchbacked back reaching his long slender hand out to us. I had gotten into the car when I saw the creature slowly starting to crawl out going to Cali whom back was turned I grabbed my bow and took aim yelling at Cali "GET OUT OF THE WAY" the creature behind her yelled in his demonic voice LiTLe GIrl WONt YOU FeED mE Cali screamed as she was frozen in fear that screamed which alerted everyone else ,I released the bow shooting into its shoulder as it shrieked and ran back Into the store in pain, I yelled "EVERYONE MOVE OUT" we headed out back  onto the road seeing Cali lower her window and yelled thank you! It was quiet from that point for that one moment then from the distance the monster screamed the words FEEEEED MEEE! We were long gone then
After that silence
