Lone Survivor (Thorin x OC)

Kindred Spirits

Author's Note: Hello everyone! Writing has kept me occupied through this safer-at-home, I have mostly been staying at home but through writing it's almost like I'm going out every day haha. I am considering posting another story (maybe a Severus Snape? or another Thorin...) I'm not sure at the moment, I've written a lot of backup stuff cause if I don't have inspiration to write one I go to another so long as I'm continuously writing. But! Let's get to the story shall we!

Disclaimer: I do not own Hobbit, all rights belong to the amazing Tolkien (along with any references from the movie belongs to Peter Jackson). Also, other movie references you recognize I do not own. The cover photo is edited by me, but the model in the picture I do not own. Only thing I own is my OC Sophitia. Any grammar errors you see please forgive me also anything I missed I'm sorry! I'm a bit tired since it's so late here haha. Anyway! Enjoy the story!

Warning: There is mention of killing and details on zombies. Also, any 'survival' method in here is not as thorough as I had hoped so don't take my word for it, it's mostly what I've seen in tv shows or movies. xD

"We've interrupted your regularly scheduled program to bring you this breaking news! A strange phenomenon has bloomed in the center of New York, citizens are being attacked by what people are reporting as a horror show brought to life! A real Dawn of the Dead! New York has issued an emergency quarantine urging everyone to lock their doors and stay at home."

"We had gotten word of a single case at the beginning of the month that seemed to have spread and grown exponentially with each passing day, officials had no answer as to how it was spreading. We now have our first full blown case to which officials in New York are hoping they have kept it under control." The reporter stopped as he held his finger to his ear before coughing nervously into his fist. "This just in, we're getting word now of more states experiencing a similar issue. As of right now, many are trying to single out the major cause for this pandemic. The leaders of the world is now urging everyone to lock their doors-"

"Is there anything else on?"

"No wait!" I laughed reaching for the remote and changing it back to the news. "This is important! It seems like something is going on around the world..."

"They compared it to the Dawn of the Dead. That's ridiculous."

"Never watched it..." I commented as I snuggled together with...who am I snuggling next to?

"Resident Evil?"

"Great movie." I said instantly, being a huge fan of the franchise, both movie and video games.

"Eh, everyone has their opinions."

There was a sudden 'knock' at our door that quickly turned into loud impatient bangs.

"Who could that be?" I questioned as I looked toward the door. "You expecting anyone?"

The person whose face was shrouded in black shook their head as they got to their feet and began walking to get to the door.

But before they could get there, the door was bashed open and in came something I thought I would only see in movies. It was exactly what the news had reported, it latched onto the first thing it saw which just happened to be my shadow friend. A piercing scream echoed throughout the room as blood gushed out from the wound between their neck and shoulder, but the scream...I couldn't tell if it came from me or my shadow friend. My shadow friend pushed the monster away before standing in front of me, blood dripping down the front of their shirt.
