=====================================================================

Running.

Is that all we will ever do?

Me and my brother have been running for almost 2 months now. Running away from those freaks.

Or as I like to call them "Walkers". Always the same routine everyday. Wake up and try to survive.

My name is Florence. I am 15 years old.I have no living family except for my twin brother James. He's younger than me by about....2 seconds but it still makes a huge difference. Every second counts.

He is why I'm still alive.

He is why I still have hope.

He is my last living link to insanity.

Sighing I continued to trudge through the forest with James beside me. Then I heard a twig snap. I immediately turned around and grabbed my katana.(sword)

Then a walker came through the trees. It snarled at me. It started to approach me and James. Sighing I went to it. I sliced it's head clean off with my katana. We continued walking until we reached our campsite.

It was just a simple humble campsite. Besides the fact that there are guns and a barb wire around it. I went to my tent and got my bow and arrow. I strapped it in my back.

"Hey James! I'm going out hunting. Stay in the camp and don't leave!" I said.

James nodded while reading his comics. Boys...

I went to the woods. I trudged for an hour until I spotted a deer. It was near the lake drinking water. I got an arrow from my sheath and prepared to hit the deer. I took a deep breath. I let it go. Bullseye. It hit the deer. I went to the deer and started to cut it. After cutting it I started heading back to our campsite. I went back and saw James sharpening his knife. He looked up and saw me.

"What did you get?" He said. "Just some deer." I said.

He nodded and got the deer from me. He wrapped it up in plastic and placed it in the container of food we have. I ate a granola bar. You can't be to picky with food now especially in the middle of all this. 1 granola bar can mean the difference between life and death. I went to my sleeping bag feeling tired from hunting all day. James noticed and said "I'll take watch. You can sleep Florence." I nodded to tired to argue. I fell into a deep sleep.

I was walking through a peaceful meadow. There were birds chirping and not a walker in sight. I smiled and fell down on the grass. It was so peaceful her. There were no walkers and no disturbance. I want to stay here forever. But things like these don't last long.Then the sky darkened. The birds flew away. It started to rain. Then I heard it. The thing I dread the most. The moans of walkers. Like I said. Peace doesn't last long.

The walkers came.

Snarling at me. I looked for a weapon to use. But there was nothing. I backed up scared. Then I looked closer so I can see the faces of the walkers. I reeled back in horror. The boy walker was James. He snarled at me. I felt tears running down my face. Then I saw the girl walker beside him look familiar.

It was mom. Then I realized something. All the walkers were my loved ones. I looked closer at them while backing up. I saw James,mom,My relatives,cousins,classmates from school,teachers. I held back a sob. I backed up but I tripped.

I laid there paralyzed.

What's the point in living anymore? If all your love ones are dead. Turned into mindless freaks.

My subconscious said to me. My subconscious is right. Maybe I should just...die. Then the James walker fell on top of me and bit my neck. I screamed in agony as he tore through my flesh. Pain. That was all I felt.

Stop! Please! I begged as he ate my flesh. I screamed and withered in agony.

Make it stop. Please. I just want to die. Is that to hard to ask? Then the James walker started talking.

"WAKE UP! WAKE UP FLORENCE! FLORENCE!"

Then I felt water drench my face. I shot up awake screaming. I saw James holding a bottle of water. He looked terrified. "What happened?" I said while trying to take in deep breaths.

"You were screaming and panicking in your sleep. It was like the freakin exorcist!" He pulled me into a hug.

"Don't do that ever again!" He said. I nodded while trying to get over the nightmare. Then we heard it.

The screams and gunshots. We both looked at each other,then we sprinted to the source of the noise.

There were a group of people trying to hold of against a large herd of walkers.

The men were fighting the walkers trying to hold them off while the women were hiding at the back.

I think one was even pregnant.

Then I also saw a boy my age with a sheriffs hat shooting down the walkers.

James looked at me. "Should we help them? They're not going to make it."

I sighed. "Let's go!"

I ran to the field with James beside me. I went to the nearest walker and sliced its head clean off. I went to the next and did the same thing. Then a huge walker came up to me. I quickly kicked it down and stabbed it in the head. I continued stabbing and hacking until one walker caught me by surprise.

It knocked me down. I tried not to let it bite my flesh. But this walker was stronger then the rest. Then I saw my katana lying in the ground beside me. I knew it would be hard to cut the walker's head without letting it near my face. So I settled for the opposite way to kill it. From the bottom.

I stabbed it in the stomach then brought my katana up. Yes! It sliced clean through.

Sadly, my clothing and face got splattered in walker blood. I groaned.

I stood up and saw James already done. He smirked at me. I looked at the group. They were awestruck.

I smirked and approached them. I went to the sheriff guy in front since he looked like the leader.

"Names Florence.Nice to meet you."

I said while smiling. He looked shocked.

I guess the walker blood doesn't look good on my skin.
