Alone

The Start

It was quiet out. Just my sister, Jen and I. We haven't seen any walkers in days. Was it over? Or were we just in a clean town. It was 5 am, my sister got me up and we got in our car. I guess we were going on a run?

Pause, maybe I should tell you a little about myself. I'm Haven, 14 years old, and this whole apocalypse has been just me and Jen, who is 16. My family couldn't handle this whole thing and well I'd rather not explain it unless my life depended on it. Okay play, back to what is happening.

Jen kind of looked worried.

"Hey, where are we going?" I finally asked.

"Well, I heard some walkers and I didn't wanna hang around for that. Plus we can't just sleep in the woods and on dirt all the time. We should find shelter, a store or something because we are running low on some medication."

We continued driving for a good 15 minutes before coming up to an abandoned store. Jen parked right in front of the place and got out. Right as I got out she told me to get back in.

"It might not be safe, wait here and I will come out for you. I will only be a few minutes."

"Fine." I didn't feel like arguing so I listened. As I was getting in I noticed a dead walker on the ground close to the my side of my car. His legs were missing. Poor guy, he probably had a nice life. Or at least I like to imagine he did.
