Gone. (A gumlee fanfic)

Chapter 2: hello Bubba

Marshalls POV:

I manage to gather up some strength and pull away from Simoné, I tumble onto the rough ground and scrape my knees up. I whimper softly managing to stand up once again. I look over to where I heard the scream and I see a little boy, I raise an eyebrow slightly confused... I thought me and Simoné were the only ones left. A taller man runs over with a large sword type thing and fight off the zombies grabbing the kid. I let out a sigh and look over to whatever Simonés turned into... But she's gone... Im so scared and know this is definitely the end for me.

"Daddy!" I look back over to the kid and father and he has his arms wrapped tightly around his father. I feel tears well up in my eyes longing to hug Simoné once again. "That boy daddy.." He pointed at me but the man looked so nervous he ran toward a clearing in the thick woods, there was some blood on the ground and I knew it was over for that little boy too... Although I should be talking he's about the same age as me...

Curiosity is my weakness... Or that's what Simoné always said, I slowly make my way toward where they had gone. I make sure to be slow and careful not to get caught.

After what seemed like hours of walking I come across a decently large house type of thing. It resembles more of a castle. I slowly walk to the doors and attempt to open them but they wouldn't budge and I haven't eaten in so long im too weak. I let out a soft cough and my head starts pounding, I fall onto my back and then it's all a blur...

************************

I blink rapidly confused on where I am, my head pounding as if there were drums in my head. I slowly sit up trying to get wherever I am in view... "H-hello..." I slowly move my hand to my head and my eyes adjust to the blinding light... It looks like a hospital room... But pink and it smelt of... Candy?

"Oh you're awake!" The little boy runs over a huge smile on his face, his dad is working on something but I don't know what. "What's your name?" He sounded so cheery...

"Im Marshall." I don't feel like talking.. I just want Simoné back.

"Im Bubba!" He giggled slightly looking up at me. "And that's my dad." He pointed to his father keeping his eyes pinned on me, "where's your family...?" He looked a bit concerned now, I simply shrugged.
