This Apocalypse

Chapter 3

The supply run

It has been a day since my parents agurment of me going on the supply run, my mom gives me sympathetic smiles trying to make me feel okay, but I am okay, I do want to go outside. My dad has never told me to get ready he's just preparing he's stuff, and rechecking if everything is there and okay. We didn't go yesterday because the zombie was still at the door, I insisted of killing it, but my dad said it'll draw attention,

So we waited till it left, it hasn't left the door  until now. So all I did was go to my room play with sky, and reread books from my shelf, when will it leave I groaned to my thoughts, it was getting real boring in this house, not saying that I hate it or anything, it's just I've been in here for months, 2 exactly, it's been this long.

As I payed down and was about to go to sleep my dad called me downstairs, knowing that he doesn't usually call me downstairs, yessss, finally I got up with excitement and ran downstairs. When I looked at the door the zombie was not banging on it anymore, I rushed to the kitchen where my parents were sitting waiting for me. I walked to them and sat in the chair,

" Ash, remember the supply run..., I was talking 'bout? " He's father asked, i nodded curiously wondering were he's going. " Y'know you don't have to go if you don't want, it'll be okay if your still scared, " he said slowly in a calm voice. I stared at both of them " I'm not a baby anymore guys, I'm 16,  Im not scared of those things, and I wanna go. " I said in my most mature and calm voice could muster,

My dad gave me a genuine smile, while my mom gave me another reassuring one which I think is actually for her not me. " Okay. okay, we should get started we don't want to burn daylight " he said while going up to he's packed stuff and started rechecking everything one more time. I nodded and went to my room to grab anything I'll need.

It's been an hour since I agreed to go and from all the excitement boiling up in my stomach, I couldn't believe I was finally going out. My dad made me recheck everything, and asked me some questions to make sure I know what I'm doing, and my mom was hugging me and kissing me over and over " Okay mom,- " I said between a hug, " I'll be fine don't worry " I looked at her and gave her a smile she smiled back with tears in her eyes, " y'know I love you very much right " she said inbetween a hug,   " okay Mare let the kid breath " my dad said while rechecking he's stuff again,

" Yes Mom, I love you too " I said while giving one of my most biggest reassuring smile which I hope will probably calm her down. Then my dad got up and went over to my mom and hugged and kissed her " we'll be home, by tommorow if anything happens, don't wait up " he said while tunrning to me, I gave him thumbs up to indicate I was ready, he then went to the door,

As he peered out the peephole he slowly unlocked the bolt and chains, then the door opened slowly, luckily my dad reinstalled this door three months ago so it didn't make any noises as he peered out to check the coast he then gave a thumbs up and headed out, I turned to my mom " do not go out and let anybody in okay " she then nodded and waved and closed the door silently.

Ahhh I thought, it was so much better outside than in that house, even though everything was destroyed and covered with who knows what, it was silent, kinda too peaceful for a zombies apocalypse. A few groans here and there, luckily we were not close or they would find us and attract more and then we're zombie chow.

We walked for like an hour stopping here and there, now I knew how long it was too walk to a supermarket, now I know why I rode in a car. As we past by houses of people we once knew, there were shadows in the windows passing by. I didn't want to know what was behind curtain 1, so I just looked ahead listening for anything that may lead to danger,

As we walked more I heard a low groan from behind us, I looked to my dad who didn't notice so I turned around to see a zombie walking around in back of us, I took in a deep breath and tapped my dad's shoulder he then turned and before he could ask why he notice the zombie and in a quick motion silently ran to it and stabbed it's head in a quick speed. He then slowly laid it down and looked around if anything notice,

He then got up and walked towards the trail to the supermarket and walked faster indicating me to walk faster, so I did. An hour later we could see the supermarket sign from up ahead, we both let out a breath of relief, as we walked faster the sign   read Fesh uprmarkt, as I looked at it I notice some letters were gone, I remembered before when all this zombie apocalypse didn't start it use to be fresh supermarket, but since the apocalypse started it is now flesh supermarket I thought to myself I mentally laugh and physically grinned.

My dad looked at me like I was going crazy but then turned around to more important things. We went to the entrance, luckily the door was already open, or maybe not, we entered the supermarket and it was quiet, to quiet I can tell me and my dad were thinking the same thing because he was then looking around slowly.

He then shrugged it off, " I'll get the food, you get the clothes, and toiletries, okay? " He said while grabbing a basket I nodded and went off to my destination, aisle 29 was the clothes section, and aisle 46 was toiletries, how big is this supermarket I asked myself, knowing no one will answer me I walked to my aisle I thought I should go for the heavy stuff first, toiletries it is, as I made my way down I looked at stuff in sale,

I wished none of these thing happened so we could all go back to our normal lives hey I could even get this Rolex watch, just as I was staring at the rolex I heard noise from a few aisles across, I then quickly grabbed it, and went to check the noise out hey not like I'll go to jail I smiled at my joke dang I really am going crazy I shake that thought out of my head and when I was closer I could hear a low groan,

I then look around me, and walked slowly to the groan as I turned with my knife I regretted following the noise, what I saw was inhumane, it was the most horrifying thing I ever saw, I mean I saw it on TV and all but seeing it in real life and it's really real not just some paint and costumes, I then walked slowly towards it, it was a former living maybe one of the employees, he was really messed up, he's guts were out, he was nailed to the wall, and he's face was gone it was blown off, all you can hear is it choking on its blood,

I then looked up and what was written on the wall made my heart dropped God is dead in what I think was this guy's blood I then went up to it and stab it in the head, then it's head dropped blood dripping down from the stab wound and it's face. I then walked away and rushed to get the stuff who knows how many more are in here I thought and rushed even more shoving what I think we're important in my bag and the basket, I then went to the clothes area,

I grabbed a few clothes for us, and went I then remembered dog toys for sky, I then walked to the pet aisle and grabbed some toys for her. As I finished getting the stuff I walked to the front of the store waiting for my dad, i was getting worried that he was taking long maybe he's just trying to pick the food ones that I kept telling my self, and before I was going to go loom for him he came rushing out of one of that aisle I let out a breath of a relief he then went to me, " are you ready? " He asked in deep breaths, I nodded " everything all right dad? " I asked scanning him. " Yeah, yeah, just ran into those things, we should leave now " he said while picking up he's basket,

I did t want to argue if there's more in here I wanted to get out of here. We then made our way to out home luckily we didn't ran into anything that'll hold us back, so we still had light to make it home, as we reached our home I knocked and my mom suddenly opened the door " oh my god, thank God your okay " she said rushing us to get in as we got in I put down my stuff and my dad dropped he's which caught our attention, then he fell to the ground and me and my mom rushed to him " dad?! ",
