J's eyes shot open. Light sweat dripped down his face. Another nightmare. He shifts his position out of bed and started his morning routine once again. He set his plate down onto the table, the audio being heard from the T.V. J sat down on the red wood chair and brought his hands at the bottom of it, to scoot himself closer to the table. Eating his breakfast, the movie played for about an hour. The movie ended, leading J to clean up his mess and make his way outside after getting ready. Weapons and gallons of vinegar laid in the back seats of his car while a couple of guns laid in the passenger seat. Before driving off, J poured a couple of gallons of vinegar to cover up his car.

Shortly after that, he was on his way to the gas station. Like the day before he left the same message over and over and over again. Still, nothing. J made his way out of the gas station and into his car. He slammed the door shut. Pounded his fist on the wheel until his knuckles had a throbbing pain. Head slightly leaned against the wheel with his hands beside it. He mourned for a little while. He had that feeling, that emotion. The emotion he hadn't realized that was in him. The feeling of loneliness. No one to care for. No one to love. No one to be here with him. J now only has no hope left. He couldn't help being alone anymore.

He shoved the key in the ignition as the sun had already begun setting. His foot stomped onto the gas pedal, and his car raced off to the decks. As he drove, a group of Abbies trailed behind him, hearing a loud roar and seeing the Abbies run after the black Challenger in the rearview mirror.  After a few minutes of driving, the car slows down near to the end of the dock, the front facing the view of the running Abbies and soon an adding number of them joining. J stepped onto the gas pedal with full force, and the car drove full speed towards the swarm of Abbies, "AAAAAAH FUUUUCK ALL OF YOU" he yelled letting out all his anger. Eventually, he no longer has control of the car as the Abbies attack aggressively and the car becomes unstable. Abbies on top of the car, the sound of them breaking through the glass windows along with J sitting there hoping for his death already.

Irritated rings overpowering most of his hearing, the metallic taste of the blood running through his mouth and the crimson color running down his face, along with the rest of his body. He stayed there barely able to move at the moment, the Abbies eventually breaking through the glass and trying to get a hold of him, his sight mostly blurred. The blurred image of Abbies attacking, soon a very bright light came, leaving J to wonder what the hell it was.

Eyes slightly opened, almost squinting as they finally closed and J feeling hands against his arms as he was being pulled out. A girl pulling J as he's unconscious out of the damaged car. Dragging him along the floor covered with shards of glass and kneeling to look at the bloody man, she used all her strength to place him in the passenger seat of her car. She quickly got into the other side slapping J a few times in the face to keep him conscious, as she noticed he was about pass out and eventually die, so she had to hurry. "Stay with me Stay with me," The girl says a bit panicked not wanting to lose him, and continuing to slap him lightly. A soft groan escaping him, signalling her that he was still alive. The girl started the car and drove off quickly into the night.
