The Story Of My Life // OC story // DISCONTINUED

Chapter 4

     Spooz's POV

I felt bad leaving her alone again. I'd bring her with me if I could but if they found out about her they'd definitely kill her. I broke into a run as I realized I was already late. Approaching the stone brick building my heart began to beat faster with nervousness as it always did when I came. I silently went inside, it may have seemed empty but there were two people waiting for me on the roof of the building. I went up the half crumbled stairs, having to jump over some parts, as I made my way to the top. After stepping out of the staircase I was now on the roof, the whole building its self was 6 stories tall so there was a breeze. Gazing across the concrete platform stood two people facing away from me. The one taller than the other, was wearing an orange cat hoodie with the hood up and torn blue jeans. The smaller one was had on a chessboard patterned shirt, with jet black pants.

"So... you did arrive late... I suppose I lost that bet..." ItzFallen turned around to face me, her blue eyes piercing into mine.

"So what's your excuse this time?" McANickNuget turned around as well, staring directly at me.

"I... I just lost track of time, nothing too drastic..." I answered quickly. The two of them exchanged an unconvinced glance but didn't proceed to make a big deal out of it.

"Just don't let it happen again." Fallen said finally, narrowing her eyes at me. I finched at her threatening glare. These two scared me, which was a first because I'd like to think that I'm not afraid of anything, but these two are number one on my short fear list. They're both cold-blooded murderers. Once the apocalypse had come into full swing they would kill any normal person they found, for no reason what so ever. They had told me that they did it because the zombies could get to normal people and become a threat once bitten but I knew that they only did it for fun, with no law enforcement they could do whatever they wanted out here. When they found me though, I fought back, managing to slash Nuget across the face, leaving her with a scar over her eye. I think they were impressed I think and let be become... well... there servant I guess. I had to get them food, water, supplies and even sometimes get rid of bodies of those they've recently killed. I haven't done that in a week because they've killed everyone. I had to do what they said, or else they'd kill me. My watch beeping meant I had five minutes to bring them supplies.

"Speaking of that bet..." Nuget went on, "You owe me gunpowder, I don't care how hard it is to get, a bet is a bet!"

"Ugh, fine! I'll get it tomorrow..." Fallen sneered then they both turned back to me. Knowing what they were going to ask for next, I took off my backpack and dumped the contents onto the ground. Food, plenty of water, and a few other stray things. After that, I turned and half jogged back to the staircase when... "Where are you going in such a hurry?" Fallen's voice made me pause.

"Yeah, where's the fire?" Nuget insisted.

"Uh... nowhere... I just have to get some more stuff for this evening. Might as well go now..." I said nervously as I continued to back away. The reality was I had to get back to Cobra, I didn't want anything to get her while she's defenseless. She can fight, that's for sure, not as good as me but I saw her taking out some of those zombies yesterday but without a weapon, there's only so much she can do on her own.

"You've got time, you look half-starved." Nuget picked up a can of... something from the ground and handed it to me, "Hopefully this'll give you enough strength so your not late again." For a moment I thought I saw kindness in her eyes but it faded into a cold stare. "Or I'll have your head..." I took a few steps back.

"C-Can I go now?" I asked. Fallen narrowed her eyes but gave me a quick nod. And with that, I ran down the staircase, happy to get away from them.
