Our group are asleep around the diming table, the fire in the fireplace dying out and reduced to a few embers still alive. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAWoI5ArPFgc
207Please respect copyright.PENANAZW1YcZSB91
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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6qV1kCjC0
207Please respect copyright.PENANAh1NYZRmxNS
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAIvW7aW3SOS
207Please respect copyright.PENANA0CX1Cug8u0
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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAJbnY7A6SBG

207Please respect copyright.PENANAh8VjUhz2ye
"Sure, one performance coming up sometime."207Please respect copyright.PENANAlAzfRa9jEu

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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAdDlpCATyyo
207Please respect copyright.PENANA1wWSchYel1
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAOkO3WbB0UA
207Please respect copyright.PENANAK1IJ4Lbz7r
"I'm sorry, Slate."207Please respect copyright.PENANAaURBbOD4Eh
207Please respect copyright.PENANAqz0MS9XXCA
"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANA48wv4R6NF1

Both watching Zekey now licking Paisley in the face who's laughing, Lyla patting the top of his furry little ears.207Please respect copyright.PENANANN4zoSccaD

"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAFaN2q86C6D
207Please respect copyright.PENANAlfjLF5Z2As
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAYzqnVJlMgg
207Please respect copyright.PENANAOi1owa8i9J
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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAKfZlfCTg7m
207Please respect copyright.PENANA6f7gQYE4Gz
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANApT8gHSmlNi
207Please respect copyright.PENANAWyoi7GAFow
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAKgDPKuVh7b
207Please respect copyright.PENANAd3XXA35051
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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAyiJzjbIzmh
207Please respect copyright.PENANAuIsxmZVH7w
"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAQON45nlomu
207Please respect copyright.PENANAnCZ8Iktixy
"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAH51AIMd0uJ
207Please respect copyright.PENANAVhJOdq9vKd
"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAd5351W4LNE
207Please respect copyright.PENANAbi6ZNQ3pvW
She can't move out the way and closes her eyes, arms over her face, bracing for impact.207Please respect copyright.PENANAzNziVTqa6G
207Please respect copyright.PENANAHYGp79cDUG
"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANArcCakdhHIF
207Please respect copyright.PENANAIf4xQIvGue
"Are you bitten?" The man asks.207Please respect copyright.PENANAfdx2dyNS7U

"Did the zombite bite you?"207Please respect copyright.PENANAj4aQxlwndE
207Please respect copyright.PENANA8DcBGGTJ5C
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAiKG7Auk3QZ
207Please respect copyright.PENANAX5BT3HGnVc
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?"207Please respect copyright.PENANAcjPzsnHSjr
207Please respect copyright.PENANA6JNBCexc3m
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?!"207Please respect copyright.PENANAVhlyb7yinx
207Please respect copyright.PENANAR4R4HbTu2z
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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAojHK9uEBM1
207Please respect copyright.PENANAPrVI2jerej
"It's just twisted, not broken."207Please respect copyright.PENANARg3IBfDnUh

"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."207Please respect copyright.PENANAgXSd3bidJi
207Please respect copyright.PENANAONR7pwJy8u
"Call me girly again, and I will bite your dick off." Beth hisses.207Please respect copyright.PENANAydGz1IytPm
207Please respect copyright.PENANAihec2XW2eI
"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANA1iBcdaNoGe
207Please respect copyright.PENANAH07fo9X6iT
She nods. "Who are you both, and what are you doing out here?"207Please respect copyright.PENANAGVE0RMNm5H
207Please respect copyright.PENANAz2asvMtlFo
"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-"207Please respect copyright.PENANAhK73EElZ6Q
207Please respect copyright.PENANAIFvJGu1tjn
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANA4PWxmXJE9c
207Please respect copyright.PENANAIU51fURiQK
"I don't want to talk about it."207Please respect copyright.PENANAmCEoydUyYl
207Please respect copyright.PENANAmoOzCVke67
"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANA7oDuNPmLMM
207Please respect copyright.PENANABsayHOw32p
We have those supplies, warmer clothes, we have a RV. We can help you both." Noah tells them.207Please respect copyright.PENANArb6tL6o3fV

"How old are you guys even? You look barely 18." Evelyn judges them. 207Please respect copyright.PENANATJdIi7LpSp

207Please respect copyright.PENANAe852UqD8e0

"Wait, there is more of you?" Evelyn says.207Please respect copyright.PENANA7j88vQrfYU
207Please respect copyright.PENANAYG430RyiIF
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAUpmGyiIVUE
207Please respect copyright.PENANAYCdx3e6OVO

207Please respect copyright.PENANAlb0MXoCbzk
Let's just accept their help. They could have shot us and they didn't, rather they killed that zombie instead."207Please respect copyright.PENANApWMRixYZ2u
207Please respect copyright.PENANAUyQTHSZV4t
He sighs. "Okay, fine."207Please respect copyright.PENANA83aAU0eSCy
207Please respect copyright.PENANAeX2OtoVmJD
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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANArIAd43iM6S
207Please respect copyright.PENANAPCdc1OOvXs
After a few minutes, he returns with everyone and Zekey. They step onto the RV.207Please respect copyright.PENANAS5jDhTNGw5

207Please respect copyright.PENANAzOrlMz9111
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAyevbHRbia4
207Please respect copyright.PENANAAB1rJN7647
"That is a fire lookout up there you know?" Lindsey points out to Beth. "Okay." She says, not interested in talking. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAC0CYP2wV59

207Please respect copyright.PENANAblXNQ1uNTA
The pain barely ever registers, and she realizes everyone can see her cuts. 207Please respect copyright.PENANA9iEY3cV3CF
207Please respect copyright.PENANA73x5QiSdK8
"Your neck." Evenlyn says.207Please respect copyright.PENANALS4Oj8JXem
207Please respect copyright.PENANA49LlCv1u1r
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAcx3QGTiLRv
207Please respect copyright.PENANAbALAW3NSEJ
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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAV7rUrrWtG9
207Please respect copyright.PENANAVqL8BLDkIl
"They are really messed up." Evelyn says.207Please respect copyright.PENANAxhhj7xZm7t

207Please respect copyright.PENANAxltdAea0ef
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.207Please respect copyright.PENANAwEAvrUQjNh
207Please respect copyright.PENANARwUwbqIo6O
And the others, they will have problems too." Lindsey adds on.207Please respect copyright.PENANAwS9DOPVraX
207Please respect copyright.PENANAMa6h4TAJIz
"We convince them to stay to with us." Noah responds.207Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6DtAhuBA3
207Please respect copyright.PENANAuIdK7GYyZM
"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.207Please respect copyright.PENANA2PTStZ9Ri3
207Please respect copyright.PENANAib516qdu2G
"I know."207Please respect copyright.PENANADL7ePTqH38
207Please respect copyright.PENANAHGxaiKnADb
"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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAItbkH9JUw3
207Please respect copyright.PENANAZfApPeWYSz
Not the same as the bed she just gave up.207Please respect copyright.PENANA9aJCBcoh8o

207Please respect copyright.PENANA5NlyW6VXNM
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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAIzHnU7Xqgl
207Please respect copyright.PENANAB0vfsaxkPX
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.207Please respect copyright.PENANASa7RfsbmRj
207Please respect copyright.PENANAgsOkly4A91
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. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAOY1yZ11eRO
207Please respect copyright.PENANADw1NZgDlwL
Evelyn and Noah notice her, and Noah fills a small bowl for her, cutting his food in half and holds it out to her.207Please respect copyright.PENANAj0B6fDzyn9
207Please respect copyright.PENANAUNGFKfQNb1
"You sure?" Beth asks. He nods his head and holds the bowl out further to her. 207Please respect copyright.PENANA0xVhtOcvx4
207Please respect copyright.PENANA3aAaMw2hCb
"Thank you." She tells him, taking a seat. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAXL8KYUUJ3o

"Can I ask-" Evelyn begins. 207Please respect copyright.PENANAIjKKFG5vM8
207Please respect copyright.PENANAj93j1d7S1b
