Our group are asleep around the diming table, the fire in the fireplace dying out and reduced to a few embers still alive. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAnvaNrKwMvg
191Please respect copyright.PENANAvBzNy8L1Ak
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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAbWGwxwH7jB
191Please respect copyright.PENANAnnu9GTk8tB
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAYKUf5NHCUZ
191Please respect copyright.PENANAq66Mb1Fb9t
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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAPRlSRck3AK
191Please respect copyright.PENANAQZxTXxRXbh
"Enjoy your skinny dipping, Gid..."191Please respect copyright.PENANAdO4QgWe9Vl
191Please respect copyright.PENANAFIvBaSeiNw

191Please respect copyright.PENANAyr5KgaKCNQ
"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."191Please respect copyright.PENANANeUCuwS6nB

191Please respect copyright.PENANAnmXwZ9whpT
"Sure, one performance coming up sometime."191Please respect copyright.PENANAP3rBKgz6EL

191Please respect copyright.PENANAdZx8mvoZa6

191Please respect copyright.PENANAxRYrTMKD0I
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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAdxVKU1tIsG
191Please respect copyright.PENANACazSoiXvjZ
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAWPTQkxQWrD
191Please respect copyright.PENANANCQlRw4mGa
"I'm sorry, Slate."191Please respect copyright.PENANATIJ3cZtiaJ
191Please respect copyright.PENANAnhasNektub
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAC75ZaF1LJo
191Please respect copyright.PENANA3GMDmAutbQ

191Please respect copyright.PENANAbE7a1Z7M6M
Both watching Zekey now licking Paisley in the face who's laughing, Lyla patting the top of his furry little ears.191Please respect copyright.PENANAEPwGW8GLnW
191Please respect copyright.PENANASMuE4MlPL4
"Where we'rey ou this morning, Gideon?" Lyla asks him.

191Please respect copyright.PENANAShIiB3FZIF
"I'm hungry."191Please respect copyright.PENANAshnYmUkAZf
191Please respect copyright.PENANAwImhoAxhDm
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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAtMrPOxnzYI
191Please respect copyright.PENANAQnhhHde5nA

191Please respect copyright.PENANAkqMwVP8m2l
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAQD5jJtdEE6
191Please respect copyright.PENANA2aDR5z3ArQ
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAG9F0XEcxUr
191Please respect copyright.PENANAvpP1eudvkl
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.191Please respect copyright.PENANALXC8rVBoQk
191Please respect copyright.PENANAX1XTASGzy9
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANA2iWU0tvXEs
191Please respect copyright.PENANAsk1nGGYWXM
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANACe4n5Weiu8
191Please respect copyright.PENANAdDzUWZR24C
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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAB3vw82mRL4
191Please respect copyright.PENANAFSB1gC38c4
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANATiDwB3J2KW
191Please respect copyright.PENANANCQ1dHxJsW
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAa8FKfhGb7i
191Please respect copyright.PENANApOJsFMUfYa
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANACcdQvcxImr
191Please respect copyright.PENANA7FXFQLTDBY
She can't move out the way and closes her eyes, arms over her face, bracing for impact.191Please respect copyright.PENANAIN4PWNsitd
191Please respect copyright.PENANACL8avP66Ov
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAxZSpp0CFxE
191Please respect copyright.PENANAYTY6IJhIvI
"Are you bitten?" The man asks.191Please respect copyright.PENANAgNND56QLvK
191Please respect copyright.PENANAV9Sj42s9Gk
"Bitten?"191Please respect copyright.PENANAgkfvkxqEJN
191Please respect copyright.PENANAsvb9I8BrEi
"Did the zombite bite you?"191Please respect copyright.PENANA85ls90gZKc
191Please respect copyright.PENANARyAXzVaPxH
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAj15vsnGzWB
191Please respect copyright.PENANAF4Nq3DT7ga
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?"191Please respect copyright.PENANARWDyxjfwgO
191Please respect copyright.PENANAFngUONgXgN
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?!"191Please respect copyright.PENANALtjYJQ3cQI
191Please respect copyright.PENANAn6bKfSRaig
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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAwtfZqEqf6z
191Please respect copyright.PENANA5o0HXqDXfE
"It's just twisted, not broken."191Please respect copyright.PENANATJVauqlp8o

"Are you a doctor?" Slate asks. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAtfBIWv8284
191Please respect copyright.PENANABmgEB8rqcA
"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."191Please respect copyright.PENANAuBvh9a03Xh
191Please respect copyright.PENANAicug8MxFUS
"Call me girly again, and I will bite your dick off." Beth hisses.191Please respect copyright.PENANADm66Hz7hQV
191Please respect copyright.PENANAiF7BczSZJr
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAq6QoTZKVdL
191Please respect copyright.PENANAPGqL3JwtT1
She nods. "Who are you both, and what are you doing out here?"191Please respect copyright.PENANAFLsqk1qt1C
191Please respect copyright.PENANApKC4S4y09v
"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-"191Please respect copyright.PENANA4Vk8yrfAlf
191Please respect copyright.PENANAPO6gKMbSPw
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAvQyXrG5g0a
191Please respect copyright.PENANAACXOM4cr1Q
"I don't want to talk about it."191Please respect copyright.PENANA8DbJEki8dc
191Please respect copyright.PENANASkFrDLAmuI
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANARBquk2YYol
191Please respect copyright.PENANAyqTpmE4yvn
We have those supplies, warmer clothes, we have a RV. We can help you both." Noah tells them.191Please respect copyright.PENANAxAwEtpBiL2
191Please respect copyright.PENANARL3DLSGlNj
"How old are you guys even? You look barely 18." Evelyn judges them. 191Please respect copyright.PENANA8fP21b5pLF
191Please respect copyright.PENANA9toQiRvYMz

191Please respect copyright.PENANAaxibief9j4

191Please respect copyright.PENANA34x3DSjC7T
"Slate, we still need food. There is us, three other hungry people and a dog." Beth points out.191Please respect copyright.PENANAR6G8EG5LNF
191Please respect copyright.PENANApAXd0qdlIn
"Wait, there is more of you?" Evelyn says.191Please respect copyright.PENANA8dRRwCTK1Y
191Please respect copyright.PENANA9hxODkktwb
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAr12ZPBt995
191Please respect copyright.PENANA07pySQFZnp
Where did you guys come from? Where are your parents?"191Please respect copyright.PENANAi7n4z6gKFH

"Beth!" Slate says. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAfJq7gqGJ9o
191Please respect copyright.PENANAS12vn5fNO8
"Slate, we're all fucking miserable, cold, hungry and tired. We have no food and few medical supplies. Bandages is all we have. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAufAe6mOL4O
191Please respect copyright.PENANAStjM6UGnm3
Let's just accept their help. They could have shot us and they didn't, rather they killed that zombie instead."191Please respect copyright.PENANAhNmCbhCRIN
191Please respect copyright.PENANAAVk9djCM2q
He sighs. "Okay, fine."191Please respect copyright.PENANAuVYarhikJY
191Please respect copyright.PENANAmoCggd8yd8
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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAr6lm2mM2BD
191Please respect copyright.PENANAGC9tn4b2hq
After a few minutes, he returns with everyone and Zekey. They step onto the RV.191Please respect copyright.PENANANIBMbxc5ax
191Please respect copyright.PENANAO7p7ePXhSS
"Uh, hi everyone! I'm Noah, I used to be a primary school teacher - Kindergarten. This is Lindsey-"191Please respect copyright.PENANA7TyvPrOvPN

"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAyj6oYfe2QL
191Please respect copyright.PENANAXBFokqxVMu
"People like me?!" Evenlyn says annoyed. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAtdCNNK1QfI
191Please respect copyright.PENANASqgG1SPWTz

191Please respect copyright.PENANAQztmmP6yIP
"I guess you could say that." Slate says. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAYwCLfVVfPa

"When did this happen? And when did you escape?"191Please respect copyright.PENANAv81qGP1YSu

"Last night, we escaped last night. It was unplanned, let's not talk about it."191Please respect copyright.PENANAVruq7k2Vkw
191Please respect copyright.PENANAxK5csxmAjb
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAKR4waQokar
191Please respect copyright.PENANAvA6baJbf6k
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANA3hOTD0HCWw
191Please respect copyright.PENANAiY5jpAiJLz
"That is a fire lookout up there you know?" Lindsey points out to Beth. "Okay." She says, not interested in talking. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAVIAYqIag60
191Please respect copyright.PENANAXnmW4grKsK

191Please respect copyright.PENANAPAOehAE1ZF
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAilakuILFjF

"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7cDmPvObq
191Please respect copyright.PENANAdoUavm2Lir
The pain barely ever registers, and she realizes everyone can see her cuts. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAi0J2bzw1qN
191Please respect copyright.PENANA9NXNeFytCO
"Your neck." Evenlyn says.191Please respect copyright.PENANAQolEFEd1XX
191Please respect copyright.PENANAChu6pbT7Dv
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAGuEVGOYqNu
191Please respect copyright.PENANAm50EiQTMmO
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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAumLB1BBk4L
191Please respect copyright.PENANA25ASWQu364
"They are really messed up." Evelyn says.191Please respect copyright.PENANALTpOZDdYWS
191Please respect copyright.PENANAZBu2vRDylD
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAPbqsTOmIfk
191Please respect copyright.PENANAX6Rj67xCQ2
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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAjogzw5LRsy
191Please respect copyright.PENANAcfDfiZKuBA
And the others, they will have problems too." Lindsey adds on.191Please respect copyright.PENANAkfikhmyjqd
191Please respect copyright.PENANApGjPyXtpvV
"We convince them to stay to with us." Noah responds.191Please respect copyright.PENANA1hFSP16bbL
191Please respect copyright.PENANAKE4Xcc9MAV
"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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAqc4Y6ArAls
191Please respect copyright.PENANAfPCFKLfhmE
"I know."191Please respect copyright.PENANAUyJKRImMEQ
191Please respect copyright.PENANAq7gehgIEM8
"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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANACfNNbJc2JJ
191Please respect copyright.PENANAY4Qi7lR7uS
Not the same as the bed she just gave up.191Please respect copyright.PENANAqpEsZSuQJg

---191Please respect copyright.PENANAQfDV7GdEw2
191Please respect copyright.PENANAeP3eqVLG36
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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANASIR3ALFg7P
191Please respect copyright.PENANA7acNLr52Sc
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.191Please respect copyright.PENANAzr4uWNiRVq
191Please respect copyright.PENANA5Zcs8cadxo
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. 191Please respect copyright.PENANA9mWucGNynD
191Please respect copyright.PENANAABpPy5VUxO
Evelyn and Noah notice her, and Noah fills a small bowl for her, cutting his food in half and holds it out to her.191Please respect copyright.PENANAFUoQZ3KYVZ
191Please respect copyright.PENANAEvKDCZrwTR
"You sure?" Beth asks. He nods his head and holds the bowl out further to her. 191Please respect copyright.PENANAPKLoucqtCW
191Please respect copyright.PENANAmaySgVzle3
"Thank you." She tells him, taking a seat. 191Please respect copyright.PENANA5eiU4vXQyi
191Please respect copyright.PENANATDXDLRWyRx
"Can I ask-" Evelyn begins. 191Please respect copyright.PENANA3iI0AtPVQ5
191Please respect copyright.PENANAtA8tpeFuQK
"I knew that was coming. I tried to kill myself, end of story." Beth snaps, then spoons the food into her mouth. 191Please respect copyright.PENANALthgilODy9
