I stood there not knowing what to do.I turned around noting the silent environment. Very silent indeed. I dismissed my fear on thinking my mission.

First i have to save clara and her family and then we can head to zoo where my friends were. If they are going to stay there they can. But knowing that jackass will be there I don't know what to do.

One step at a time Merlin.

I felt anger on thinking how he refused to help. It's non of his business but he should have helped in some way. That's what human do. Help each other.

How can i leave her.Clara and her family is a reason for my decent life i lived so far.

Her father helped in finding job for my dad and even accepted my educational expenditure.I will die than leaving them.Atleast I will know I tried.

I looked down at the axe after contemplating so much I bent down picking it up and twirled the axe in my hand inspecting it.I don't know how am going to use knowing that I never touched a single weapon in my life. I pray I won't amputate myself or others in the process.
Anyway desperate time leads to  desperate measures.

I started to walk towards the street without making any noise.First thing I want to do is not to attract their attention.

I startled on hearing screaming sounds. I squealed but shut by closing my mouth.

I started to run on seeing the familiar car of my friend Clara. There are so many cars parked outside. I think she came here for some party. The house Infront is decorated which confirmed it is indeed a part.

I turned around once again and walked slowly with my axe held high in front of my face.Being alone made me feel more vulnerable and exposed.

Its okay i will be okay.I muttered to myself.I jumped on hearing the scream again.

I stood near the door swallowing my saliva with extra force.Stop being coward and open it. I have already wasted enough time.

I touched the knob and turned slowly.Thank god its not locked.

I entered closing the door swiftly and  saw the mangled cake with blood everywhere.

Gross.

And saw so many shredded body of women ,man and children.Its definitely gonna haunt me forever.

I turned around searching for Clara and saw a familiar face lay dead and a zombie feeding on the body.

Shit its Clara's mom who is feeding on her own daughter.

Oh my god clara...I gasped and saw clara is still alive.Oh my gosh.She moaned without having strength to scream or fight.

I ran towards her mom and knocked her mothers head clean from her neck.I stood there with wide mouth on thinking what I just did.

I knelt before her.she vomited blood and coughed panting. I started to cry holding her hand.She smiled looking at me.

"Dont leave me until i die please" she moaned looking at me.

I sobbed loudly.

"Iam sorry i cant save you.I should have come sooner. I failed you" I sobbed hardly hitting my hand on floor.

"Shhh...its not your ------" I saw her chest stopped rise and fall.she still have the smile in her blood smeared face and she looked at me

but dead and gone.

I cried.I stood and watched her for a while .

"Iam sorry" I said and turned around to walk away but stopped again on hearing the screaming and banging of door.
