Edge of Creation

The Breaking point

We are one of humanities last civilizations, and pretty soon.. We will be the last
January 21st 2035
It will be 20 years tomorrow, I thought we would be dead by now, the military has set up more walls for protection.
Me and Annika are about to go out for another supply run.. This military post doesn't give out enough ration passes, we only have enough to last us three days, we need to do this run if we want to live, hopefully nobody found the secret exit, if I survive to write in this again, we will probably be deep into the city.

We get in and out of the city by using a hole in the floor of an abandoned building. We cover it by using a dresser against the floor.
"Are you ready?" Annika was waiting anxiously for me at the exit "Yes , just move the dresser so we could get through," I knew she couldn't move it I just was teasing her "you know I can't move that thing, I'm only 14!" I shove the dresser out of the way "hurry up before the soldiers get here!" Annika has always been the kind of girl who always worries about everything, even if I've only known her for a year. She is a lightly tanned girl, with brown eyes, and brown hair that goes down just about half a foot below her shoulders, she is about 5'5. "Okay I got it, let's go" Annika quickly rushes in as we heard the footsteps of guards coming up the stairs. As I use a rope to pull the dresser shut, I could see the soldiers barley missing the suddenly moving dresser. " We need to find Kelly, she should know where Moonstars are." I stated," They move positions every week so the military doesn't find their base" The Moonstars are a society of men, women, and children that don't feel that the military protects them enough, and some of the members take it as a rebellion so they started putting can bombs into military forts and blowing them up, so now it is a big rivalry between the two, no matter who goes to talk to the general that it was a misunderstanding, their body comes back dead. "Did you hear that?" Annika questioned. She had always had the best hearing "I think it is a scavenger" scavengers are a type of zombie that have long nails and scratch you and run away, their nails have poison on the ends so they run and wait for the poison to get to you and come back to eat off of your dead body. I try to say quietly, " Annika, give me that bottle, I'll throw it in the opposite direction and when he goes for it, slowly walk against that semi truck" "Right" as I throw the bottle the scavenger runs in the opposite direction as we slowly walk in the other direction, Annika steps on a shattered piece of glass, the scavenger quickly looks the other way and starts to run at us, " Annika, run!!" I command as I start running myself. The scavenger is about ten feet behind us and catching up quickly.
