As I'm walking towards the scavenging team , they all smile my way. There is a new kid about my age that i dont reconize is he new? "Well looky here, It's the captain's favorite."
"Ha, ha. Very funny." I say sarcastically "Who's the new kid?"
"My name is Hunter," he says.
"Cool! I LOVE that name."
"Thanks, what's your name?" He asks
"Alice, my name is Alice." I smile.
"Let's get moving! Enough of the chitter chat." The commander says
"Yes ma'am."
"Yes ma'am!" Hunter repeats
~~~~~~~
"So were you born into the plague also?"
"Yea, I'm 17 years old."
"Oh I'm 16," I say "so when did you join the camp?"
"About two weeks ago." He says as his eyes adjust on something
"What the hell is that?" I whisper while squinting on what looks like a--
"SPITTER! TAKE COVER!" Hunter yells
I run to take cover but Huter remains in his spot, what the hell does this dude think he is doing? Supposedly he is protecting me... The Spitter's tongue grabs his neck-
"NOOOO!" I wail running toward the spitter, once I reach it ...I slice its head off.
"Y-you y-ou saved my life!" He says looking in to my heterocramtic eyes, "thank you!"
All of the sudden I feel his strong embrace
"Umm..."
"Uh sorry got a little carried away" he says stepping back
"Yea its OK, I get it. Let's go into that restaurant, to see if there is any supplies we could use." I say canceling the fact I kinda enjoyed the hug °~°
"Alright." Hunter agrees
When we walk in, there are tons of supplies. First of course we check the perimeter of the building for any survivors or for any z's, but there isn't any.
"Why would there be this many supplies?" I ask puzzled "There aren't any survivors. "
"Maybe the were bitten?" Hunter shrugs uncomfortably
"Yea." I agree
We gather all the supplies,
" We should get go-"
I hear the leaves russle,
"shh!" I whisper
I look outside and see a herd of z's , and the bad news is...its almost sun down.
"Shit!" I whisper
"Don't worry we'll find a way to escape." He says assuring me
~~~~~~~~~~
I awaken to a series of gun shots,
"H-Hunter?" He's gone. I look outside to see the captain standing there.
"Captain! Over here!" I shout. When all the z's are dead I run towards him
"Thank goodness you are okay!" He says hugging me. Reminding me of Hunter. My eyes sting, did I get acid in them?
"Are-Are you crying?"
"No I'm just upset."
"Why sweetie?"
"Well Hunter left and took half of the supplies"
"This is half??"
"Yes sir."
"Well done this is good enough"
"Thank you sir "
