When time stops

Chapter thirteen

Evin helped John walk down the hall in the morning while everyone was packing up ''We aren't coming with you.'' Ben explained, they stopped, John looked down feeling sad at his words ''Why not?'' Jean asked, Ben and Sophia smiled ''We both know we can't outrun those things.'' Sophia stated, John turned to them ''Plus, we can cause a distraction so you guy's can get threw alright.'' John smiled and looked down ''But we can all get through?'' Ash stated, they shook their head's ''Go, it's alright.'' Monte opened the door seeing three zombies in the streets ''If they stay in the house it'll be alright.'' he stated, they brought the stuff out of the house and got in the two cars.

Backing out John looked back at the house before they started driving away ''Where is the station?'' Jean asked with Evin beside him ''Right outside the town.'' John explained feeling it was a bit painful still, Jean drove them past the horde in the town finding a different way around everything and getting through. They finally got out of the town and were about to reach a bridge but Jean saw something a bit to late he tried breaking but the tires were already popped from spikes on the road, he hit the side of the bridge and they all got out, Monte looked around knowing that was there for a reason.

Then he saw them, a bunch of people started running over ''We need to leave.'' he said putting John behind him, Evin looked up the road ''I can see the station.'' he said then saw more people coming from that side, Carson pulled him back, the other's got pulled out of their car and brought to the bridge, they made all of them get down on their knee's and stood in front of them ''We want that car.'' he stated while some of his people moved the spikes getting the stuff out of the car and looked through everything ''Take it then.'' John said knowing they were close to their destination, their leader scoffed and crouched down ''What if I want something more then a car?'' John stared at him knowing there would be more people like this, he stood up and looked around.

''Take her and him, then we'll be going.'' he said pointing to Willow and Evin, Jean shook his head and got up when he came close to Willow trying to take her, the guy pushed Jean back while someone else took Willow, John and Carson both got up while they grabbed Evin ''Get your hand's off me!'' Evin yelled kicking back on him hitting the edge of the bridge falling over ''No!'' Carson ran over and looked over seeing the rushing water below, he turned around at the guy before running over, John was pushed back and he grabbed his side, Monte finally stood up and pulled his gun out shooting the leader in the head.

Jean got up and ran to the car seeing they got inside and started driving away with Willow, Jean hit the car as it drove away, Carson backed away from the edge while Monte took out the rest of them that didn't get on the car, he went to the middle of the road and continued to shoot the car smashing the back window but they got away. John forced himself up and tackled Carson before he jumped over to where Evin fell, Carson pushed him away while Monte ran over ''You can't do any good by jumping over.'' John spoke while Monte put pressure on the wound seeing it was bleeding, Carson stopped looking over not seeing any movement other then the water it's self.

He hit the side while Monte helped John stand ''We need to go after them.''Jean stated, Carson turned around ''We need to go get Evin.'' Carson stated walking to them ''Evin's dead alright, see that rushing water nobody could survive that!'' Jean yelled then pointed down the road to where they went ''Willow is still alive.'' John walked over ''People like that are bad Jean, they took all our weapons, we only have one pistol again and no supplies.'' Jean groaned before passing them and walked towards the train station, Georgia and Nathan stood up and started walking not saying a word, everyone else started walking one by one.

John looked to the wall of the bridge and sighed walking over, he looked over at the rushing water below and looked further ''John come on.'' Monte softly said slightly pulling him, they started walking, the station wasn't far away, they got there in no time and headed inside ''He's actually gone?'' John said and stopped, Monte stopped while the other's headed up ''I thought he would make it to the end, where ever that end is.'' John stated, Monte nodded and hung his head ''Nobody live's forever.'' John looked at him knowing he was right.
