Our group are asleep around the diming table, the fire in the fireplace dying out and reduced to a few embers still alive. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAHctZi0M1nU
173Please respect copyright.PENANA10AlbYL2xr
Slate sits up, rubbing his eyes. Paisley nestled in Lyla's arms, both girls still asleep and Zekey lying nearby, his little doggy tail waving back and fourth, snoozes coming from him.173Please respect copyright.PENANANoUDJnxBHo
173Please respect copyright.PENANAfdm1ARnfai
"Dreaming of bacon? Cause we got barely any food." Slate mutters, standing up, an ache in his back. He yawns, noticing Gideon is nowhere to be seen, the fire is dying, he'll have to restart it instead, and check on Bethany. He hobbles over to the fire, adding a few logs.173Please respect copyright.PENANAsXkTyzThBM
173Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1J4nyZ6xV
When that is done, he checks on Beth. She's fast asleep under the blankets on the bed. Looking out the window, he can see Gideon out in the snow- his face blushes when he relizes and looks away.173Please respect copyright.PENANAr3CiifDQCU

"Enjoy your skinny dipping, Gid..."173Please respect copyright.PENANAW2tKokoBn0
173Please respect copyright.PENANAVlhv39wLbd

173Please respect copyright.PENANAUBfdtZoplX
"Sounds like a reasonable dream as a result then. I can actually think of so many books, movies, shows, games about them. Geez, society was obsessed with them."173Please respect copyright.PENANAi0CeBhYZmv

173Please respect copyright.PENANASPReTDvx13
"Sure, one performance coming up sometime."173Please respect copyright.PENANAiQodHcv3TC
And they both laugh. "This feels weird, since escaping... it feels like I can think for the first time. I still don't know who I am or where I came from, but..."173Please respect copyright.PENANAp6ZJ1PnNW5
173Please respect copyright.PENANAjprdAjsRis

173Please respect copyright.PENANAxIV2I21cDU
When they hear the back side door opening. Slate places a hand on his gun and takes it out, slowly looking around the side of the room, Beth following behind him. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAWZBNB4Wrvq
173Please respect copyright.PENANAqaBaRkfl85
"Ah, geez!" Gideon yells when he sees it. Lyla and Paisley sit up shocked, having been awoken. "Why the hell didn't you anounce yourself when you came in? We are in the middle of nowhere, Gid and we don't know anyone else!" Slate lectures him.173Please respect copyright.PENANAA3YFuVjIYh
173Please respect copyright.PENANAH83doJWSbN
"I'm sorry, Slate."173Please respect copyright.PENANAgOVDlGIOXi
173Please respect copyright.PENANAfX76KItXIb
"Woof!" Zekey barks, tongue out and smiling. Everyone looks to him. "How's our favorite boy this morning?" Gideon says, picking Zekey up and ruffling his fur. 173Please respect copyright.PENANApVupIaTO8K

Both watching Zekey now licking Paisley in the face who's laughing, Lyla patting the top of his furry little ears.173Please respect copyright.PENANALYYQhQucuI

"I'm hungry."173Please respect copyright.PENANATB2r6hJede

Everyone looks down at Paisley. "I know you are, don't worry. We're going to go out and look for more food. We have none left." Slate tells her. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAL8H8xwRhNY
173Please respect copyright.PENANANOD85uesTs

173Please respect copyright.PENANA3cPCslxx6w
"My stomach's kind of hurting, Slate and my asthma is playing up. Can I stay here?" Begs Lyla. "And Paisley should stay here too..." not wanting to call her naive to her face. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAFljW8IsRm3
173Please respect copyright.PENANAAM3Ot6TKDq
"Uh, I'll come." Gideon speaks up. Slate looks at Beth. "Okay, party of 3 it is." He says, stocking up the fire up more so it stays warm for Zekey and the girls longer.173Please respect copyright.PENANAQmZ9XFUzIG
173Please respect copyright.PENANADxsFfYXIK9
Our three head outside in the snow, stumbling around for a good while. It's nothing but trees for miles and the hill keeps sloping down as where they came from, the shelter was at the top of the mountain.173Please respect copyright.PENANARyR5bpBmoD
173Please respect copyright.PENANARONtiLy8jH
"It may not be blizzarding right now, and the sun is out, but we're getting to far away from the lodge. Let's go back." Gideon worries.173Please respect copyright.PENANAinf06YJkWT
173Please respect copyright.PENANAtXXfrtXE0D
"But we haven't found any more food." Beth complains, both standing off with eachother when they hear a growl. "Is that a bear?" Slate asks, pulling out his gun.173Please respect copyright.PENANAYLPsp5QhWZ
173Please respect copyright.PENANAUhJxBJUUpR
They see a figure, a person standing opposite to them. It looks up, it's eyeballs half falling out, face squished, teeth rotting, body decaying. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAysAVxnvI0d
173Please respect copyright.PENANAP5B43D0P93
"Who the fuck are you?" Slate says, the figure leeping at him. "Run!" Gideon yells taking off sideways back up the lodge, and Bethany starts running up a icy road, that bends around the corner, trees blocking her from seeing what's around the corner. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAzO8INsJ3Zk
173Please respect copyright.PENANABb2ZNWWi09
"Hey, man. Chill, don't make me shoot you." Slate says backing away from the person who is advancing on him when he hears Beth scream and looks in her direction. She's lying on he road, having twisted her ankle. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAYR1awIGAbj
173Please respect copyright.PENANAqDCJyy1Lwf
"Beth? You okay?" He says when the person launches on him. "Slate, watch out!" She yells, and the scuffle begins just as she hears screaching and bright lights, a RV come hurtling around the corner. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAIq8wU6F7E3
173Please respect copyright.PENANAM9Q3kBYbeI
She can't move out the way and closes her eyes, arms over her face, bracing for impact.173Please respect copyright.PENANAkPbUMFtXKe
173Please respect copyright.PENANAGZCKAcD0Dc
"You idiot! Get off the road, you could have gotten yourself killed! How old are you?! 15? Highways aren't for playing on!" A man is yelling at her. She looks up to see a man with straight brown hair on the long side sitting at the wheel off an RV, he has pulled the window open. Then he looks up, seeing Slate scuffling with the stranger and raises a gun of his own. "No, wait!" She yells, him firing and the stranger falls down, Slate relieved and turns to look to see an RV. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAJRSer31jVN
173Please respect copyright.PENANAFAox2qMSMf
"Are you bitten?" The man asks.173Please respect copyright.PENANAzil6VkXsSp

"Did the zombite bite you?"173Please respect copyright.PENANAHSO6w14jKn
173Please respect copyright.PENANA3u3xhucf9D
"I don't think so. That's a..." and Slate's mind goes back to his earlier conversation with Beth. He looks to Beth and she looks at him, neither knowing what to think.173Please respect copyright.PENANAX1tC1trP8l
173Please respect copyright.PENANADJHhsryxeN
A man from further in the RV takes a seat beside the man driving, this one has curly raven hair. "Lindsey. Why'd we stop? Evelyn wants to know too. You fired your gun?"173Please respect copyright.PENANAc1ot1Tl2t1
173Please respect copyright.PENANA2n1H69BW4N
The man in the drivers seat breathes. "Sorry, Noah." And he points to Bethany and Slate on the road. "Oh my god!" Says Noah, jumping to the door and exiting the RV. He picks Bethany up, "Are you okay?!"173Please respect copyright.PENANA6hbLfnUH8M
173Please respect copyright.PENANALkGrdavNEO
And takes her inside, Slate following. Noah lay's her down on a fold out couch and bends down to her level. "Can I feel your foot?" He asks, she nods saying nothing and he removes her shoe, inspecting her foot.173Please respect copyright.PENANAbaigmS6FYe
173Please respect copyright.PENANAXsN3iSwFRF
"It's just twisted, not broken."173Please respect copyright.PENANAxqvGlfUMP9

"Are you a doctor?" Slate asks. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAcEKjOjND8C
173Please respect copyright.PENANAejd0fAcxRI
"Primary school teacher - Kindergarten. Well, was." Noah responds. "What are you both doing out here?" Lindsey asks. "And you're both not dressed for this weather. Well, he is. But you're not girly."173Please respect copyright.PENANAmgvWFX5D6Z
173Please respect copyright.PENANAglraxxAbLF
"Call me girly again, and I will bite your dick off." Beth hisses.173Please respect copyright.PENANAfLyuX12Tdd
173Please respect copyright.PENANAajF7iEzaZr
"Oh, enough!" Booms a voice, and they all turn to look at the next room, the door opening and a visbly pregnant woman shuffling out. "Evelyn I presume?" Slate asks. 173Please respect copyright.PENANActxNn0BCJk
173Please respect copyright.PENANAbVyEV2gkky
She nods. "Who are you both, and what are you doing out here?"173Please respect copyright.PENANADvopR6dXr6
173Please respect copyright.PENANAcP9zevtLjz
"That was a zombie wasn't it?" Slate asks, pointing to the fallen figure outside the RV on the road. "Is it not obvious?" She says annoyed. "Sorry-"173Please respect copyright.PENANA1cqCtdSAQE
173Please respect copyright.PENANAb8FYLFJL3m
"It's fine, I understand why." He responds trying not to look at her belly. "What happened to you head? It's covered in that bandage." Noah says, reaching a hand out and Slate slaps it away.173Please respect copyright.PENANAtcbrg5i76Y
173Please respect copyright.PENANAWW4uvWTtTR
"I don't want to talk about it."173Please respect copyright.PENANAsuH6ygUADl
173Please respect copyright.PENANASSLRIjeD6S
"Slate, let's just leave." Beth says, trying to get up and walk. "Uh, no. Neither of you are in any state to go outside. You need warmer clothes, your ankle is twisted and you, look at that bandage on your head. It is bleeding alot still. You need fresh bandages, gauze and more. 173Please respect copyright.PENANA3aUGvUH434
173Please respect copyright.PENANACrBYci3prl
We have those supplies, warmer clothes, we have a RV. We can help you both." Noah tells them.173Please respect copyright.PENANAr4e79rlOF0
173Please respect copyright.PENANAVBL19Sa56x
"How old are you guys even? You look barely 18." Evelyn judges them. 173Please respect copyright.PENANArfnIyolhdY

173Please respect copyright.PENANAmfptRB42yL
"Slate, we still need food. There is us, three other hungry people and a dog." Beth points out.173Please respect copyright.PENANANpg1zy98Sy

"Wait, there is more of you?" Evelyn says.173Please respect copyright.PENANAVqjXxrzzl1
173Please respect copyright.PENANAOLpdSitI4j
"Alright, lets all calm down a minute, everyone." Noah says calmly. "Why don't we drive up and get your friends and... the dog. Bring them inside here, we can get you all warmer clothes, a meal and we can talk.173Please respect copyright.PENANAH0owDDeyUg
173Please respect copyright.PENANAEI6g9WunkM

173Please respect copyright.PENANAs3o4UWwD8o
Let's just accept their help. They could have shot us and they didn't, rather they killed that zombie instead."173Please respect copyright.PENANAoM2RUUZIlI
173Please respect copyright.PENANA7RNnoggqSe
He sighs. "Okay, fine."173Please respect copyright.PENANAt56IRcluLX
173Please respect copyright.PENANA5TycuzWDld
And Slate follows Noah to the front, taking a seat in the passengar seat, Noah starting up the RV. Lindsey and Evelyn hang back with Bethany, but she won't look at them or talk them. They make it up the mountain and Slate leaves, heading inside to get his and Bethany's stuff and inform the others. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAOG1CMalob6
173Please respect copyright.PENANA9oMRtiO7BG
After a few minutes, he returns with everyone and Zekey. They step onto the RV.173Please respect copyright.PENANAw3vrNoCLY5
173Please respect copyright.PENANAs77WXGy0Ej
"Uh, hi everyone! I'm Noah, I used to be a primary school teacher - Kindergarten. This is Lindsey-"173Please respect copyright.PENANABHZXKbHHq2

173Please respect copyright.PENANATwaYURlZDG
"Okay, let's just stop it all. You want some food? I'll go in the back and find you all some warmer clothes." Noah smiles. 173Please respect copyright.PENANA2wTwIbnoCN
173Please respect copyright.PENANA3dikcX0YWQ
"Thank you." Bethany speaks up, interrupting Slate. After being stationary for a while the RV, our group is now dressed warmer and they've all been fed.173Please respect copyright.PENANAmXGLXnPN6n
173Please respect copyright.PENANAk9Y21meKpr
"That is a fire lookout up there you know?" Lindsey points out to Beth. "Okay." She says, not interested in talking. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAGVwQhTjsDL

173Please respect copyright.PENANAisQgbjKiN8
The pain barely ever registers, and she realizes everyone can see her cuts. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAApdCEqtPCu
173Please respect copyright.PENANA0PEIp3Mx87
"Your neck." Evenlyn says.173Please respect copyright.PENANAtkTSpIOwnp
173Please respect copyright.PENANApQIIasxRl8
"I'm sorry, you're right. You are adults, you just look barely like one. You guys have been through hell. Do you all want to go to the back and get some sleep? We'll be up here if you want us." Noah blurts out quickly trying to defuse everything, gesturing to Lidnsey to come up the front of the RV.173Please respect copyright.PENANAXE14lCNVbC
173Please respect copyright.PENANA3gFomorCyr
Our group all stand up and walk to the back, finding a double bed. The room is small, but there is some additional sleeping bags stashed in the corner. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAtXAiE9GjeN
173Please respect copyright.PENANAeBtSdI98QF
"They are really messed up." Evelyn says.173Please respect copyright.PENANA4A63orymj8
173Please respect copyright.PENANAC2BCTBmkR1
"Yeah." Noah breathes. "What we we going to do with them? They can't stay outside alone, they won't survive. They're not prepared for this.173Please respect copyright.PENANAdfUVF21W77
173Please respect copyright.PENANA6OcC5aPqPX
That boy, Slate, he didn't even know that was a zombie at first and the bandage on his head, something happened there. A accident? And Beth, those cuts on her neck, her wrists. It's clear she's attempted to harm herself before.173Please respect copyright.PENANAgv8CUGcxz8
173Please respect copyright.PENANAc7C6mqKfka
And the others, they will have problems too." Lindsey adds on.173Please respect copyright.PENANAIuFSASeGTR
173Please respect copyright.PENANAsk5WUIK5SN
"We convince them to stay to with us." Noah responds.173Please respect copyright.PENANAukrMiWf4ky
173Please respect copyright.PENANAwavAasT9sA
"Okay, but we'll outgrow this RV. There is five of them, a dog, three of us and our soon to be born baby." Evelyn tells them.173Please respect copyright.PENANALxOcfZAqb3
173Please respect copyright.PENANAXVRRhviVyg
"I know."173Please respect copyright.PENANAw29Q0XM5SC
173Please respect copyright.PENANAIabjLXPwKz
"We'll work it out, it'll just take some planning. For now, let's just hit the road again and hopefully they wake up in a better mood later." Lindsey says, heading to the wheel, Noah following while Evelyn takes a seat on the couch, leaning back. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAEaQdtR0Nlo
173Please respect copyright.PENANA05ZkbpTzdC
Not the same as the bed she just gave up.173Please respect copyright.PENANAHaMDsXeh8e

173Please respect copyright.PENANA1aHaGGKMmn
Beth can feel the gentle bumps from the RV driving along, she sits up the room completly dark. She slides out of her sleeping bag and leaves the bed where the rest of her friends are. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAXeRPzbfSzk
173Please respect copyright.PENANAZMI2pW12iO
They all squeezed in to fit on the bed, none wanting to sleep on the floor. She lifts up the blinds and looks out, seeing blankets of snow for miles, it's blizzarding heavily outside and nighttime.173Please respect copyright.PENANAafKRsuF3cq
173Please respect copyright.PENANAUfyNhrJlpo
She heads back to her friends, and digs around in her stuff, finding her guitar and leaves the bedroom, gently shutting the door behind her to see Lindsey up front driving, Noah and Evelyn sitting on the couch, food on the table infront of them. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAGtB7smN4hB
173Please respect copyright.PENANAIrziePWYvt
Evelyn and Noah notice her, and Noah fills a small bowl for her, cutting his food in half and holds it out to her.173Please respect copyright.PENANAdVzbOHeiQA
173Please respect copyright.PENANAkqAEuypS3q
"You sure?" Beth asks. He nods his head and holds the bowl out further to her. 173Please respect copyright.PENANANp9tp0yD0M
173Please respect copyright.PENANArm1uLGAvQH
"Thank you." She tells him, taking a seat. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAnCihKWPySZ

"Can I ask-" Evelyn begins. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAIZal6TjRwx
173Please respect copyright.PENANAEC5bRcjIyr
"I knew that was coming. I tried to kill myself, end of story." Beth snaps, then spoons the food into her mouth. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAjjH41qMehZ

And he sits down beside Beth, teaching her. After sometime, there is movement in the back room and Paisley pokes her head out, followed by Slate.173Please respect copyright.PENANA2RTObuEV70
173Please respect copyright.PENANAsEKw6TTSs6
"Sounds good. You're picking it up." Slate smiles at Beth.173Please respect copyright.PENANADgKkKUS9oA
173Please respect copyright.PENANA0wamPYfK5n

173Please respect copyright.PENANAijbxAzjv0z
"Left where?" Slate asks confused, looking at Evelyn and her belly. Bethany waves her hand, giving him the look to shut up. 173Please respect copyright.PENANAwHRkzFjt8q

He gets it. "Uh... So, what are we going to do about-"173Please respect copyright.PENANAmCAdc9PJrO

173Please respect copyright.PENANA5EpilYZtpk
