In a world that has gone to shit, Lana Simmons has survived on her own. It isn't until a certain group comes along that she finds happiness.

In a zombie apocalypse, Lana Simmons survives alone until she meets 10k and his group of survivors. As th...
Lana lay on her stomach and groaned with exhaustion. She looked at 10k as he wrung the sweat from his scarf into his mouth. Cassandra crawled over to a can and tried to drink out of it but was upset when it returned dry. Lana heard a zipper, and then Doc walked over. Murphy runs over to them with all the energy in the world.
"Water isn't gonna find you just sitting there."
"Why are you so fricking chipper?"
"I've been wondering that myself. Maybe it's cuz I conserve my precious bodily fluids," Murphy said with a cocky smirk. Lana pulled out a knife and held it up in Murphy's direction. "I will cut you." The ground starts to rumble, and everyone starts to wonder what the hell it is. The closer Lana looked at the giant cloud of dust, the more she began to see Z's. Lots of Z's.
"Goddamn, guys just won't quit."
"I suggest we run for it." Murphy starts to run, only to stop seeing that nobody is following. "Come on, people. Pick it up."
" We... can't. Dehydrated."
" Come on. Keep movin'." Murphy grabbed Warren's arm and started to run. The others got up and started to follow. 10k grabbed his rifle and bag and ran but turned around at the last second. Lana was still lying there on her stomach as the zunami got closer. He ran to her and tried to get her up, but all she did was groan. "Leave me, Tommy." She cracked out with exhaustion.
"I'm not leaving you."He picked her up bridal style and ran after the group. Everyone ran into the country coroner's office. While they ran in, two men ran behind them. Only one made it in the door. The other was tackled by a bunch of them. Warren mercied him and closed the door. 10k was lying flat with his face smushed on the ground while Lana laid her head on his back.
" So that's it? We're all just gonna lie down and die? Doc!"
Everyone starts talking, and that is the day when Lana finds out that Z's don't like the cold. She then starts to drift off and think of pre-Z.
*Flashback*
"Please don't." A little girl yelled at her babysitter.
"You've been bad. So you need to go in a time-out."
"I'll tell my mommy on you!"
" Oh, little Lana. Who are they going to believe, me or the child?" Before Lana could answer, the babysitter grabbed her by the pigtail and threw her in the closet, locking her in. "You can come out when you learn to be a nice little girl."
She was in there for three hours. The more the sun went down, the darker it got. The darker it got, the more the walls started to close in. The closer the walls reached, the more Lana started to panic."
*Flashback End*
Lana snapped out of it when she heard a scratching sound next to her head. She gave a confused look to 10k.
"Do you hear that, or is that just in my head?" She turned her head and heard the scratching again.
"I hope it's rats."
"I think it's coming from in here." The scratching got louder. 10k, and Doc agreed to pike it. As Doc opened the door, 10k went to pike it, but there was no Z.
"I think it's coming from this one." Doc opens the one above the other, and the Z grabs him. 10k went to pike it, but he couldn't get a good grip. A gun barrel went to the Z's head and blew its brains out. Then, the door started coming off of the hinges.
"I don't know," Cassandra says as 10k rolls out the metal slap from the drawer.
"We don't have a choice." Once everyone got in a drawer, Lana and Warren were left.
" What are we gonna do?" Warren opened a door and pulled out a metal slab that had 10k on it.
"She's going with you." Lana got on the slab with 10k and was pushed in. As soon as the darkness hits, she begins to hyperventilate.
"Hey, look at me." 10k knew what happened to Lana when she was a kid. How could he not know? At the beginning of all of this, they told each other everything. He could hear her softly crying. He held her hand, trying to calm her down

She almost was until the extra group member kicked his door open, thinking he could fight over a thousand zombies. "I don't want to die, Tommy." 10k cupped her face and brushed away her tears with his thumb. "As long as I'm here, you'll be fine. Everything will be fine."
