Legacy (Book #2 of the Survival Series)

Chapter Eleven

***Juli's P.O.V***

As happy as I was to see Daryl and Fay alive, I was most happy to see Luke. This whole Apocalypse thing has been a whirlwind of excitement, I never stopped once and thought about guys, even though now they're more desperate for attention than ever. The day this all happened, I had slept in like usual, my depression had hit hard due to my best friends sudden death. She opted out of this life all because of a band member saying one small comment to her, but in reality, it wasn't a small comment at all. Niall may have thought it was just a small comment, and it may have been, if he wasn't famous. But hearing that you aren't as beautiful as another girl, from a celebrity, who you're in love with, is like a stab to the heart.

Addie had gone to a meet and greet for One Direction, I couldn't go because I was so heartbroken from my breakup. Addie had wanted to stay with me, but I told her to go, she may never get this opporitunity again. She went and as she was coming up she asked Niall for a picture. But he saw a girl behind her, who was apperently "Stunning". Addie had tried to say something and Niall turned around and said the words that would haunt Addie for the next days.

"You're okay, but her? She's stunningly beautiful."

Addie let those words eat at her. The week before the world went down, I went over to Addie's because she wasn''t answering my messages. I ran over, as she only lived five minutes from me. I took my key out of my pocket and unlocked her back door. I called out for her but she never responded. I called again and heard the door shut, and then a gun shot. I screamed out her name and ran up the stairs and through the door open to see an image I would never forget. My best friend, laying dead on her bed. Her makeup was smeared under her eyes, marks up and down her arms. I was frozen in my spot in the doorway. I looked to her mouth, to see a small smile.

"Juli," Luke's voice nudged me out of my trance. I turned to look at him, tears welling in my eyes. I can't lose any of these people. I can't lose Luke or Fay. I need to find Christie and Erin, I need to.

"Come on Princess." Daryl groaned leaning on the wall. "We have to get out, what's the plan?"

"Kill them." I said quietly, in fear that someone would walk by.

"What?" Fay asked taking a step toward me.

"Kill them. Kill anyone who isn't a friend." I ordered.

"J, they're your family." Fay said looking towards the door. "What? What is that?" She asked walking towards a frame on the wall. "Look, they even have a family photo."

"Yeah, and I'm not in it." I said glancing over. "Check it, I'm not in it. There's a hole where I would be. They disowned me when this all started. They didn't think I'd live a day. Well," I said picking up the knife from the corner. "They're wrong. And I'm about to prove I can make it in this world, and they can't."
