Our group are asleep around the diming table, the fire in the fireplace dying out and reduced to a few embers still alive. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAEoMVUzJRei
221Please respect copyright.PENANAtdJ6xA01s8
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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAt3bF1lEMH4
221Please respect copyright.PENANA4avzzsM8kl
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAnxhVdWcXp8
221Please respect copyright.PENANAcAmMLet1r4
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.221Please respect copyright.PENANA0s2eraUQf1
221Please respect copyright.PENANAOUWRO7hIxD
"Enjoy your skinny dipping, Gid..."221Please respect copyright.PENANA2Hjtvs0Hqy
221Please respect copyright.PENANAGQEluZGKjG

221Please respect copyright.PENANAQWmR4spsIS
"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."221Please respect copyright.PENANAvA353G1fjL
221Please respect copyright.PENANAHQrsmpN3iX

221Please respect copyright.PENANAaNaixx3Vdv
"Sure, one performance coming up sometime."221Please respect copyright.PENANAW46PTJkZPn
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..."221Please respect copyright.PENANAGhA9A6jdR6
221Please respect copyright.PENANALzrgJnDqVr

221Please respect copyright.PENANAOndKKF8rUp
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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANA7xqgDkWj4A
221Please respect copyright.PENANAf18w2wmlfj
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAKHbc1hF3PW
221Please respect copyright.PENANADQvKEVmQYb
"I'm sorry, Slate."221Please respect copyright.PENANA2IfZS7d224
221Please respect copyright.PENANAFW3wzNVelU
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAIFt0Q9pvgN
221Please respect copyright.PENANArtfD7PqCQW

221Please respect copyright.PENANAl7fbd8MfuF
Both watching Zekey now licking Paisley in the face who's laughing, Lyla patting the top of his furry little ears.221Please respect copyright.PENANADDFCcOg6ta
221Please respect copyright.PENANA0WFoH7avi9
"Where we'rey ou this morning, Gideon?" Lyla asks him.

221Please respect copyright.PENANAfGaj4USrEL
"I'm hungry."221Please respect copyright.PENANALCi8iQFdRW
221Please respect copyright.PENANABxtqAXRJoP
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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANACr2B3Uq6sb
221Please respect copyright.PENANAuJEbUYAlci

221Please respect copyright.PENANAXBy6nIZL3z
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANA9pTAE6WCT7
221Please respect copyright.PENANA475AtU0ONM
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAV73gKW4IVg
221Please respect copyright.PENANAlYn4nfVcO2
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.221Please respect copyright.PENANASyVCwT55fZ
221Please respect copyright.PENANA32DCsHLKw7
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAiMseRGA24n
221Please respect copyright.PENANAavD5dOgvQo
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANArJJeQBLXHh
221Please respect copyright.PENANACGR4c4ghVc
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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAS51gkhzA7Q
221Please respect copyright.PENANAc6Oqr8oyMC
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAhmyN7xz6AR
221Please respect copyright.PENANAoizCmrU6D5
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAthikOSTltH
221Please respect copyright.PENANAecvwT0irTW
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANA3PWlnaudg7
221Please respect copyright.PENANAWxa2C6Ba9K
She can't move out the way and closes her eyes, arms over her face, bracing for impact.221Please respect copyright.PENANAaxEAMvygm1
221Please respect copyright.PENANAHjh3XSfQJb
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANArscd7NtcGR
221Please respect copyright.PENANAYziGuxk1is
"Are you bitten?" The man asks.221Please respect copyright.PENANAAqaiWrSjUb
221Please respect copyright.PENANAF9u7GyKezX
"Bitten?"221Please respect copyright.PENANARdKqu27pPJ
221Please respect copyright.PENANAjwUcau0buI
"Did the zombite bite you?"221Please respect copyright.PENANA5HO1ZGwCR4
221Please respect copyright.PENANA6BAi43oyfZ
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAU4CZDRp2Gs
221Please respect copyright.PENANAb23Yuh7gXN
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?"221Please respect copyright.PENANAa5wbv53oro
221Please respect copyright.PENANAfLKExlCBSF
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?!"221Please respect copyright.PENANA5tholhHOJ2
221Please respect copyright.PENANACaPoNmRxjF
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.221Please respect copyright.PENANA5fs0YkfQmn
221Please respect copyright.PENANAX4ejlbwiKf
"It's just twisted, not broken."221Please respect copyright.PENANA5ImiCgEn0m
221Please respect copyright.PENANAMaybI3rLLM
"Are you a doctor?" Slate asks. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAZpTutp9YzB
221Please respect copyright.PENANAwbyQdiIPeF
"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."221Please respect copyright.PENANA1BIXEGuaoI
221Please respect copyright.PENANAcLmlepraZo
"Call me girly again, and I will bite your dick off." Beth hisses.221Please respect copyright.PENANAHx5DrB8PmV
221Please respect copyright.PENANAUUG8VvWxSb
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAH3JyPDhO3o
221Please respect copyright.PENANANos6UnsdYA
She nods. "Who are you both, and what are you doing out here?"221Please respect copyright.PENANAt5R0CjF5j9
221Please respect copyright.PENANAI46OQ5P4zC
"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-"221Please respect copyright.PENANA9jk4enmoAy
221Please respect copyright.PENANA2LOzkNmegH
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAbrqZSTSfIr
221Please respect copyright.PENANAJneyAn6o8r
"I don't want to talk about it."221Please respect copyright.PENANAjacns1jP4T
221Please respect copyright.PENANAcGlpiHnLtt
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAjsN1q0YuG3
221Please respect copyright.PENANAYz5de6a5Nb
We have those supplies, warmer clothes, we have a RV. We can help you both." Noah tells them.221Please respect copyright.PENANADpNWtxWaqV
221Please respect copyright.PENANAIvJCVRLEe5
"How old are you guys even? You look barely 18." Evelyn judges them. 221Please respect copyright.PENANA1d6jIcRxsg
221Please respect copyright.PENANARSiudw9uef

221Please respect copyright.PENANAIjIlGHB9V4
"I don't care if you don't believe us. We're leaving. This world is infested with freaking zombies. We didn't even bloody remember, but we'll deal with it."221Please respect copyright.PENANAnYiT5Fx04O
221Please respect copyright.PENANAoV2Mbo0ucN
"Slate, we still need food. There is us, three other hungry people and a dog." Beth points out.221Please respect copyright.PENANAcvNtJGB8kD
221Please respect copyright.PENANAheaMpvYADW
"Wait, there is more of you?" Evelyn says.221Please respect copyright.PENANAcdVQ26asUS
221Please respect copyright.PENANACHG5rR1vgE
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAREJQBusjvb
221Please respect copyright.PENANATiRWkPu6DW
Where did you guys come from? Where are your parents?"221Please respect copyright.PENANAGOhuecA8RH

221Please respect copyright.PENANAKVnrxG7kWY
"Beth!" Slate says. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAsoUsGjG8Io
221Please respect copyright.PENANAVNCdULiVbj
"Slate, we're all fucking miserable, cold, hungry and tired. We have no food and few medical supplies. Bandages is all we have. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAkO925X1lFe
221Please respect copyright.PENANAGmTZydjA9e
Let's just accept their help. They could have shot us and they didn't, rather they killed that zombie instead."221Please respect copyright.PENANAfjuwNw85bD
221Please respect copyright.PENANAI3yRJzdHWW
He sighs. "Okay, fine."221Please respect copyright.PENANAzghnXk3HuM
221Please respect copyright.PENANACzCnMb2YMJ
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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAQWfuFml6Ug
221Please respect copyright.PENANASDu9fOXmSv
After a few minutes, he returns with everyone and Zekey. They step onto the RV.221Please respect copyright.PENANAKOtNDpAWPv
221Please respect copyright.PENANALz0006UcbB
"Uh, hi everyone! I'm Noah, I used to be a primary school teacher - Kindergarten. This is Lindsey-"221Please respect copyright.PENANAC9v7iKU9qb

221Please respect copyright.PENANANCsDNdVQhK
"Oh, fuck off." Says Lyla harshly, speaking up. "Nah, we're out. Screw this, Slate. It's people like her is how this hell started." Gideon adds on while Paisley remains quiet.221Please respect copyright.PENANASvsIMORW3T
221Please respect copyright.PENANALbE19H7GbD
"People like me?!" Evenlyn says annoyed. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAbBq5SjK91B
221Please respect copyright.PENANAE4EwBZntyn

221Please respect copyright.PENANA3Hw4AqjhU2
"I guess you could say that." Slate says. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAGhDOJkvmFt

"When did this happen? And when did you escape?"221Please respect copyright.PENANARiIiF0t9zQ

"Last night, we escaped last night. It was unplanned, let's not talk about it."221Please respect copyright.PENANASmzY0TFhEp
221Please respect copyright.PENANAZG8j9z13P1
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAGJl0O4MWhg
221Please respect copyright.PENANAuSUyYynapG
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANApErvxJVhsw
221Please respect copyright.PENANActSReNyYSP
"That is a fire lookout up there you know?" Lindsey points out to Beth. "Okay." She says, not interested in talking. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAdFNUICQvku
221Please respect copyright.PENANAeOolzlKzOT

221Please respect copyright.PENANA7HS1VjpaO3
"For fuck sake, shut up! Stop talking to me!" She yells at him, standing up and towering over him. He looks shocked for a second then stands up. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAEhoj5YHakL

"You don't speak to me that way."221Please respect copyright.PENANAItTLbenLTx

"And you don't treat us like fucking kids! Every single day, it was do this, do that, punished if we don't do what they wanted!" She yells, punching the wall. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAFBXnHMQElm
221Please respect copyright.PENANAwLntC9ETp5
The pain barely ever registers, and she realizes everyone can see her cuts. 221Please respect copyright.PENANA3vdcuivFBx
221Please respect copyright.PENANAJs7DOjrlIn
"Your neck." Evenlyn says.221Please respect copyright.PENANAQ0mOcvtfaO
221Please respect copyright.PENANAZthlGfD8qx
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAHYze6rpvCJ
221Please respect copyright.PENANAqRoI7LNMQR
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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANANKtoeVJYh7
221Please respect copyright.PENANAHPl63lmf7t
"They are really messed up." Evelyn says.221Please respect copyright.PENANA5Puuux3Klg
221Please respect copyright.PENANAYZuvQwFF4D
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANA2thulMhieX
221Please respect copyright.PENANAkKa8gVcJB1
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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAMdtL5iMKdr
221Please respect copyright.PENANA0MJ8h5PFX3
And the others, they will have problems too." Lindsey adds on.221Please respect copyright.PENANAX1ianuZMF2
221Please respect copyright.PENANAt9jYlsut3f
"We convince them to stay to with us." Noah responds.221Please respect copyright.PENANAWTkkf2yVzF
221Please respect copyright.PENANAnXW0cODWLA
"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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAY37mM51Zw6
221Please respect copyright.PENANA4FVNqx5mZk
"I know."221Please respect copyright.PENANADBNLYankoV
221Please respect copyright.PENANAzLH36GeRUg
"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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAox57PvnV8S
221Please respect copyright.PENANA9kYGZlk1sZ
Not the same as the bed she just gave up.221Please respect copyright.PENANAExM9EpU8OZ

---221Please respect copyright.PENANAeHFRqQZgU0
221Please respect copyright.PENANAhozc1GdI75
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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAZu6Zm5wyvf
221Please respect copyright.PENANArtlawfoEsi
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.221Please respect copyright.PENANAy2L3tpyf97
221Please respect copyright.PENANAnzfb3MmUkg
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. 221Please respect copyright.PENANA3waKzdKogj
221Please respect copyright.PENANAko4BjtAiU4
Evelyn and Noah notice her, and Noah fills a small bowl for her, cutting his food in half and holds it out to her.221Please respect copyright.PENANAh9hFr4TWaE
221Please respect copyright.PENANAWsQHuAMETH
"You sure?" Beth asks. He nods his head and holds the bowl out further to her. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAIBmZd2hH0t
221Please respect copyright.PENANAGYLjqa6If5
"Thank you." She tells him, taking a seat. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAlu3juPRgK2

"Can I ask-" Evelyn begins. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAF8FGHlXoU8
221Please respect copyright.PENANAVRv80G8LmN
"I knew that was coming. I tried to kill myself, end of story." Beth snaps, then spoons the food into her mouth. 221Please respect copyright.PENANAyK73hffamP

"Sounds good. You're picking it up." Slate smiles at Beth.221Please respect copyright.PENANAxBHuCEINeI

He gets it. "Uh... So, what are we going to do about-"221Please respect copyright.PENANAKbM6QqQdkl

221Please respect copyright.PENANAlmhdSO36HB
