Our group are asleep around the diming table, the fire in the fireplace dying out and reduced to a few embers still alive. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAKMe8Hy9Zib
160Please respect copyright.PENANALq9vC3ACxK
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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAc1gZlw89xk
160Please respect copyright.PENANATYtSZB2rWa
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAH0ZkyLjmgo
160Please respect copyright.PENANA6SWDjvSTQ2
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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAAVkD2m3EXA
160Please respect copyright.PENANAqD4HjqurCB
"Enjoy your skinny dipping, Gid..."160Please respect copyright.PENANAWGU691z6MZ

160Please respect copyright.PENANAOMEd1gEPej
"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."160Please respect copyright.PENANANiDppE0yWu

160Please respect copyright.PENANAk5am07dmEe
"Sure, one performance coming up sometime."160Please respect copyright.PENANAHIBB4GjOtM

160Please respect copyright.PENANAGFLt9uDsPl

160Please respect copyright.PENANAG7Y7XPrcaT
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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAw9vg5ISCUS
160Please respect copyright.PENANAqKOdVCrmOa
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAYBCwcGRSS6
160Please respect copyright.PENANALnyhmzIBlf
"I'm sorry, Slate."160Please respect copyright.PENANAq343whGxn4
160Please respect copyright.PENANAVbrXwaJccm
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAbUUBChU3wy

Both watching Zekey now licking Paisley in the face who's laughing, Lyla patting the top of his furry little ears.160Please respect copyright.PENANAdXzhSGst0U

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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANA3qZ4UnhHxX
160Please respect copyright.PENANA7LVvrVvgwn

160Please respect copyright.PENANA1tscBP4dor
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAdjbQKddW2r
160Please respect copyright.PENANAEClKX3SC9z
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAzzyw8lPYE6
160Please respect copyright.PENANAgQY4r23SHE
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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAi2Q1ptpUxQ
160Please respect copyright.PENANAsp5F3Wh7hF
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAVjpgNrYVWs
160Please respect copyright.PENANArKcNB0HdUl
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAwuDGzPchlk
160Please respect copyright.PENANATB9dIUuTel
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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAar7NPuZ6os
160Please respect copyright.PENANAP7HtywURHX
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANACoVuDOU3BX
160Please respect copyright.PENANAfQczsKui8c
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAMXK1Fg6L3X
160Please respect copyright.PENANADDvRyhmxyB
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAi6uKZJQrhd
160Please respect copyright.PENANAE6h7uSlMqn
She can't move out the way and closes her eyes, arms over her face, bracing for impact.160Please respect copyright.PENANA3YOoc7LxQW
160Please respect copyright.PENANALzzWYHNNyi
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAbx4wbhPoiO
160Please respect copyright.PENANAEXlSaHBFra
"Are you bitten?" The man asks.160Please respect copyright.PENANAekQzf6L8vf

160Please respect copyright.PENANAMiXFUxbEzp
"Did the zombite bite you?"160Please respect copyright.PENANAQMqgwFjqpk
160Please respect copyright.PENANAoQ9C9DJ46D
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANA7bTRjGoolY
160Please respect copyright.PENANAVrYwih1IHG
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?"160Please respect copyright.PENANAGw8Euwd9oI
160Please respect copyright.PENANAr2SwtRWT6w
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?!"160Please respect copyright.PENANA8g9zjaiAno
160Please respect copyright.PENANAedZ2LqBXHQ
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.160Please respect copyright.PENANA8D3qL02Fz0
160Please respect copyright.PENANAiIU38KygtJ
"It's just twisted, not broken."160Please respect copyright.PENANA5Esjhff8Zc

"Are you a doctor?" Slate asks. 160Please respect copyright.PENANA1fgXyJ6vck
160Please respect copyright.PENANAaTs2xiK6Xp
"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."160Please respect copyright.PENANAkTsFf7JaD3
160Please respect copyright.PENANAGHAai55jwF
"Call me girly again, and I will bite your dick off." Beth hisses.160Please respect copyright.PENANAIoTQUv4qnn
160Please respect copyright.PENANAt9R5tV4aqY
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAfATrcmk9lx
160Please respect copyright.PENANAzaZ5SGVYS5
She nods. "Who are you both, and what are you doing out here?"160Please respect copyright.PENANA7cgcDEwMb1
160Please respect copyright.PENANAzUupsaDUQP
"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-"160Please respect copyright.PENANAj2qx5lv9B2
160Please respect copyright.PENANA0wH3WudW0Q
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAAmHDhAb7MI
160Please respect copyright.PENANA5eUnVdWkCx
"I don't want to talk about it."160Please respect copyright.PENANAxBBGCxxu0N
160Please respect copyright.PENANAbtwB9Bydz1
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANA38qAs9Xsih
160Please respect copyright.PENANAHG337IFn2h
We have those supplies, warmer clothes, we have a RV. We can help you both." Noah tells them.160Please respect copyright.PENANAyldrbHfG32
160Please respect copyright.PENANA1qIwb8c8qK
"How old are you guys even? You look barely 18." Evelyn judges them. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAPhsDBwFANj
160Please respect copyright.PENANAJ955JBOIwq

160Please respect copyright.PENANACgjDU0ZDSV

160Please respect copyright.PENANA7zLaROKNOb
"Slate, we still need food. There is us, three other hungry people and a dog." Beth points out.160Please respect copyright.PENANATwzZNddY3S
160Please respect copyright.PENANArs5kNQVpJr
"Wait, there is more of you?" Evelyn says.160Please respect copyright.PENANAWt92J7MTSF
160Please respect copyright.PENANAeFBnLZ1cCl
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAgS8Emgw8IX
160Please respect copyright.PENANAk155F1zQQf

160Please respect copyright.PENANAbpih1ku5I6
"Slate, we're all fucking miserable, cold, hungry and tired. We have no food and few medical supplies. Bandages is all we have. 160Please respect copyright.PENANA2USd2nHsXp
160Please respect copyright.PENANAVLUqXZr3YQ
Let's just accept their help. They could have shot us and they didn't, rather they killed that zombie instead."160Please respect copyright.PENANA6SWMunNm8K
160Please respect copyright.PENANAxwnQzNbvf5
He sighs. "Okay, fine."160Please respect copyright.PENANAIoCRxZewAe
160Please respect copyright.PENANAjg5pm0PMzx
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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAxbQv5xYSjc
160Please respect copyright.PENANAKPGzE1FpVI
After a few minutes, he returns with everyone and Zekey. They step onto the RV.160Please respect copyright.PENANAEKwpgDA8uF
160Please respect copyright.PENANACCaRJ9oi5H
"Uh, hi everyone! I'm Noah, I used to be a primary school teacher - Kindergarten. This is Lindsey-"160Please respect copyright.PENANAEganQOPZLQ

160Please respect copyright.PENANA2f165rP7kO
"Evelyn, leave it. Bethany, you said something about escaping earlier. Is that what happened to you all? Did someone take you all?"160Please respect copyright.PENANA6hLVbl2Gla
160Please respect copyright.PENANAevFzAEJkAf
"I guess you could say that." Slate says. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAEVqQWduurX

160Please respect copyright.PENANAryvxh9geVk
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAqlG0cGY6tC
160Please respect copyright.PENANAceMSZScbIG
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAM6X3WNqZHd
160Please respect copyright.PENANAhSUoRnmdtt
"That is a fire lookout up there you know?" Lindsey points out to Beth. "Okay." She says, not interested in talking. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAADVzl5cj97
160Please respect copyright.PENANAqCc6FgAmHG

160Please respect copyright.PENANAHYU7qXj6GZ
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANACcR6tuhmb0

160Please respect copyright.PENANA6xDtpRiJi4
The pain barely ever registers, and she realizes everyone can see her cuts. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAHmOoAtj9b1
160Please respect copyright.PENANAA6O3u5owVv
"Your neck." Evenlyn says.160Please respect copyright.PENANACUCtUkIbEu
160Please respect copyright.PENANAYSWfiZmw5p
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANA89gkTStRNs
160Please respect copyright.PENANA8pZPVVj2X3
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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAPgwW8IUcYk
160Please respect copyright.PENANAIlTDSMC12x
"They are really messed up." Evelyn says.160Please respect copyright.PENANAPtgldLrLoX
160Please respect copyright.PENANAHnL7neYFsc
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANApcJtbshxTa
160Please respect copyright.PENANA1P7YOJoyEN
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.160Please respect copyright.PENANA99Hk6ADAso
160Please respect copyright.PENANAwF7UMB15pn
And the others, they will have problems too." Lindsey adds on.160Please respect copyright.PENANAAlGBaE5YQv
160Please respect copyright.PENANAe4WVNFuAX0
"We convince them to stay to with us." Noah responds.160Please respect copyright.PENANA9srAg9e3LH
160Please respect copyright.PENANAxyIYSLcmZC
"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.160Please respect copyright.PENANAWWwQeyUIxx
160Please respect copyright.PENANAqarFHeTCWf
"I know."160Please respect copyright.PENANAu9pgayvQWZ
160Please respect copyright.PENANA9xtj0LorFq
"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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAN1AdH7J30H
160Please respect copyright.PENANAD8NMlxeJbK
Not the same as the bed she just gave up.160Please respect copyright.PENANA42A6Mfg0DX

160Please respect copyright.PENANAx2D5cSbGRQ
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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANANeG4bWaLOM
160Please respect copyright.PENANAjOQYln0ZmO
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.160Please respect copyright.PENANA9bhiPkcaZD
160Please respect copyright.PENANAgHIRgSSv1W
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. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAIf3jhs5t2z
160Please respect copyright.PENANAWjYko1yLtI
Evelyn and Noah notice her, and Noah fills a small bowl for her, cutting his food in half and holds it out to her.160Please respect copyright.PENANAbWfZlxGw7b
160Please respect copyright.PENANAjt5I48t4Ve
"You sure?" Beth asks. He nods his head and holds the bowl out further to her. 160Please respect copyright.PENANA6sBVEofn6S
160Please respect copyright.PENANAIubqs8j6G6
"Thank you." She tells him, taking a seat. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAMiEV88MIwB

"Can I ask-" Evelyn begins. 160Please respect copyright.PENANAqrL6Ui2TSv
160Please respect copyright.PENANAKVtMcEIsLi
"I knew that was coming. I tried to kill myself, end of story." Beth snaps, then spoons the food into her mouth. 160Please respect copyright.PENANA3NeITAVPvE
