I woke up to see a small animal sitting on my chest. I suddenly sat up and knocked it off but, when I looked closer I saw it was a puppy! A small German Shepard with beautiful coloured fur. 'How did you survive buddy' I said not expecting an answer. All it did was jump up and lick my cheek. I kept it and called it Geo. I might as well have a companion to keep me company. After I had eaten, Geo and I left the shelter to see if we could find some actual people. Before we left I checked the park across the road for a weapon or anything to defend myself. I came across 2 rotting bodies. One held a wooden rounders bat with a rusted metal band around the end. The other held a plastic ball. 'I guess Geo can play with this' I thought as she barked loudly and excitedly. As we continue I find yet another dead body but, this one had a strange growth on it. And a large leach latched onto the growth. As I lent in I quickly shot back. 'I...I...it cant be.' 'I must be going insane.' I thought I saw him twitch. Saw IT twitch. I ignored it and carried on walking, then suddenly I hear a CRACK behind me. I hear Geo whimper and as I turn around I saw something I can't explain.
'...'
'...'
'shit'
