The Apocalypse

So close yet so far (Edited)

Wen and I were now walking through the forest towards my parent's lab, following the route that I had highlighted on the map before we left. I hoped that somehow they have survived, or at least not had painful deaths. And if Wen and I happen to find my parents infected then I will avenge them, and end their suffering. What happens after that, I don't know.

I looked up to the sky to find the sun directly above us, meaning that it was noon and we had plenty of daylight to get there. We continued to walk through the never ending forest, seeing the odd zombie here and there. Most were easily passed if we were quite enough but any that were spotted out here were injured or just slow, meaning that they were very easy to take out. We made it through the forest with a lot of ease that it was making me feel sick, but Wen reassured me that I had nothing to worry about.

We stopped at the edge of the forest, making sure that we were hidden behind the trees. "So the lab is a couple streets from here but in the red zone, meaning that we are going to have to be real careful melody." I looked across the street as Wen talked, noticing the zombies that wondered the streets. "Okay, so we go straight through?" I asked, pulling my handgun from my belt. Wen placed a hand on top of mine, "No, that would make too much noise. We have to go through quietly." I sighed and replaced my gun with my machete, ready to continue.

I looked at Wen, "I'll take the ones on the right and you take the ones to the left?" I asked, seeing the fair share of zombies to kill. She smiled, "sure, ready?" I nodded in her direction as an answer and quickly ran full speed up to the couple of zombies that were lurking on the street. I lifted my machete and brought it down with all my strength and took its head off in one clean shot. I turned around and crouched down as the second zombie lunged for me; I pulled my knife from my boot and slit its throat as it was directly above me, covering me in its disgusting brown coloured blood. I stood up straight as saw that Wen was finished with her ones as well but there was one running up behind her, "Wen duck!" I shouted pulling my knife from the dead zombie's throat. Throwing it at the approaching one and landed it right in the head.

We then took to the alleyways that lead through the streets so we could avoid most of the zombies that would be lurking in the streets. We made it without any problems which I thought were strange because Alisa had marked the whole of our path to be dangerous and full of the undead. We stood hidden behind the last building before my parent's lab, the only thing that stood between us and the lab was the huge fence and a huge crowd of zombies.

sorry its so short...
