Our group are asleep around the diming table, the fire in the fireplace dying out and reduced to a few embers still alive. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAaUT8d75vfr
178Please respect copyright.PENANAGQqbyAiRvn
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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAtusQUm8QPZ
178Please respect copyright.PENANAZUi1b859Ht
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANANv79GfgCtp
178Please respect copyright.PENANA8qbKDUEEW2
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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAvwmRsyjpS0
178Please respect copyright.PENANAnGB0UFNJNM
"Enjoy your skinny dipping, Gid..."178Please respect copyright.PENANAFysEil4h2f
178Please respect copyright.PENANAG6MrlKMWyM
"Mmm, Slate?" Beth whispers, stretching her arms, waking up. He takes a seat on the bed. "How'd you sleep?" He asks, smiling.178Please respect copyright.PENANABeuGy5j2ER
178Please respect copyright.PENANA4aCYsZWxIh

178Please respect copyright.PENANAT98tslGdNd
"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."178Please respect copyright.PENANAsQLhREVZqf
178Please respect copyright.PENANAJRU1er6NhB

178Please respect copyright.PENANACPfsOtTXB1
"Sure, one performance coming up sometime."178Please respect copyright.PENANAvZRM4fIeKr
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..."178Please respect copyright.PENANANkO8I83qzi
178Please respect copyright.PENANA1iW6PZmWcg

178Please respect copyright.PENANAf5KbnIkZbh
"Yeah."178Please respect copyright.PENANAu8GqlHF6PK

"We'll have to ask the others what they remember."178Please respect copyright.PENANAi7niARqG0p
178Please respect copyright.PENANAueyjuAQcBS
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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANA0D9523WakN
178Please respect copyright.PENANAQX0PckzTHP
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAL0VwvEQv5x
178Please respect copyright.PENANAdUxnFUTQ6J
"I'm sorry, Slate."178Please respect copyright.PENANA9iebH6GRXK
178Please respect copyright.PENANALvTx9Zrydj
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAN5tlRTUNLY
178Please respect copyright.PENANA5nQngFir9k

178Please respect copyright.PENANAOxNu5hQOQR
Both watching Zekey now licking Paisley in the face who's laughing, Lyla patting the top of his furry little ears.178Please respect copyright.PENANArwZ816MzVZ
178Please respect copyright.PENANAn3cinkJyS0
"Where we'rey ou this morning, Gideon?" Lyla asks him.

"I'm hungry."178Please respect copyright.PENANALaQIOb1xnN
178Please respect copyright.PENANAhZeZW33Jf1
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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAO2yIR7YNGI
178Please respect copyright.PENANA2xYJwaNEpC

178Please respect copyright.PENANAxK4wUsuuRc
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANApJVvulktyz
178Please respect copyright.PENANAqWwO9Yxo4l
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAdbKPuy8d2C
178Please respect copyright.PENANAiseutkaF32
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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAfkmh4ofOXG
178Please respect copyright.PENANALord4cXvpX
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAQBuFJhQtdp
178Please respect copyright.PENANAultVBDndeY
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAI4GkYVA2zI
178Please respect copyright.PENANAbRg0vVZDT9
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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAd51ObPBEuy
178Please respect copyright.PENANAO1xIdpvdxC
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAvLlkCJO3NI
178Please respect copyright.PENANAq3AjtACNd9
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAc6kCvJnEkM
178Please respect copyright.PENANAcm6Kkq5TeQ
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAtZbETGg3ir
178Please respect copyright.PENANAxsHjtOCvJY
She can't move out the way and closes her eyes, arms over her face, bracing for impact.178Please respect copyright.PENANAhwv0dfXvKW
178Please respect copyright.PENANAmVHVcyfNKH
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAenr36jQbSe
178Please respect copyright.PENANAkpE2RxyzmX
"Are you bitten?" The man asks.178Please respect copyright.PENANAjNIxJ7ufsP
178Please respect copyright.PENANAWAegpXv5qI
"Bitten?"178Please respect copyright.PENANASBEx4uOVVa
178Please respect copyright.PENANAXcUVwEbz9y
"Did the zombite bite you?"178Please respect copyright.PENANAlfSpfMtN9m
178Please respect copyright.PENANAFUHplPhTBp
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAs34DchtDuD
178Please respect copyright.PENANAFOGQKPzovT
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?"178Please respect copyright.PENANAANNqMa1F5C
178Please respect copyright.PENANATPmntVYg9T
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?!"178Please respect copyright.PENANANyIzWROKD6
178Please respect copyright.PENANAGaGU5RevKo
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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAKEVV7Jh7B7
178Please respect copyright.PENANA5hqRErUXYn
"It's just twisted, not broken."178Please respect copyright.PENANAqXTQLIdO3h
178Please respect copyright.PENANAfZqfy2hBEc
"Are you a doctor?" Slate asks. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAHtunIMotuC
178Please respect copyright.PENANAKJVmBHAbUg
"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."178Please respect copyright.PENANArzEE7iWIRi
178Please respect copyright.PENANAtM8vBTZP8k
"Call me girly again, and I will bite your dick off." Beth hisses.178Please respect copyright.PENANAgje8S3OTFA
178Please respect copyright.PENANAIqGPO69j1f
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAM51ohJENNP
178Please respect copyright.PENANAYa4nNJUqHQ
She nods. "Who are you both, and what are you doing out here?"178Please respect copyright.PENANAPcOcpnxp5h
178Please respect copyright.PENANAxDvUgi6fHZ
"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-"178Please respect copyright.PENANA4vpToZpihP
178Please respect copyright.PENANArbhdnTqIz2
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANATQrYoilibp
178Please respect copyright.PENANARECIQHUxkc
"I don't want to talk about it."178Please respect copyright.PENANAs9xWk6yDDP
178Please respect copyright.PENANANFa1Fk3pS0
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAszNsOrl0CI
178Please respect copyright.PENANAIFD1J0WtpZ
We have those supplies, warmer clothes, we have a RV. We can help you both." Noah tells them.178Please respect copyright.PENANASqgbfUF2gF
178Please respect copyright.PENANALoXbG1iJvL
"How old are you guys even? You look barely 18." Evelyn judges them. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAVdAClvBfTE
178Please respect copyright.PENANAM1LUZI7VbJ

178Please respect copyright.PENANAwIo5sxmp7K
"Slate, we still need food. There is us, three other hungry people and a dog." Beth points out.178Please respect copyright.PENANAF50DFdRgBy
178Please respect copyright.PENANA4cmwnGcyRs
"Wait, there is more of you?" Evelyn says.178Please respect copyright.PENANAv2RPTifxzC
178Please respect copyright.PENANA4gUSc9cz5b
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAkSWTb1hY6h
178Please respect copyright.PENANA18V3VX7A4k

"Beth!" Slate says. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAud9atOdMpC
178Please respect copyright.PENANAvv0byvOsJQ
"Slate, we're all fucking miserable, cold, hungry and tired. We have no food and few medical supplies. Bandages is all we have. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAwTfUIdYABM
178Please respect copyright.PENANApoEkVPQG0E
Let's just accept their help. They could have shot us and they didn't, rather they killed that zombie instead."178Please respect copyright.PENANArcdqi7ltBm
178Please respect copyright.PENANAShIIjW2YRw
He sighs. "Okay, fine."178Please respect copyright.PENANArk5DH3rb4E
178Please respect copyright.PENANAPGnI9M8BfT
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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAlIHUu8fcLe
178Please respect copyright.PENANA7MqlFk4Wqg
After a few minutes, he returns with everyone and Zekey. They step onto the RV.178Please respect copyright.PENANAHYcTyohRVJ
178Please respect copyright.PENANArIaosuAwPG
"Uh, hi everyone! I'm Noah, I used to be a primary school teacher - Kindergarten. This is Lindsey-"178Please respect copyright.PENANAymccLw9Kf9

178Please respect copyright.PENANAtMH7uM1u39
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAXwfMNh51aY
178Please respect copyright.PENANAw9M1mQxcIk
"People like me?!" Evenlyn says annoyed. 178Please respect copyright.PENANA6RHcBLY6kD
178Please respect copyright.PENANAjV42NX1rwh
"Evelyn, leave it. Bethany, you said something about escaping earlier. Is that what happened to you all? Did someone take you all?"178Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZP6ljzE6d
178Please respect copyright.PENANAlGJii7UC81
"I guess you could say that." Slate says. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAWQQ5wiz6q2

"When did this happen? And when did you escape?"178Please respect copyright.PENANALJ8PDyP2tC

178Please respect copyright.PENANAC38aY20L9s
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANArz84hYNgbv
178Please respect copyright.PENANAWyV71mIU2T
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAniTCQMuG1G
178Please respect copyright.PENANAYVapVRZO6d
"That is a fire lookout up there you know?" Lindsey points out to Beth. "Okay." She says, not interested in talking. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAgWrdp2Edaq
178Please respect copyright.PENANAADjsZpOuN4
"...I see you have a guitar. What can you play?"178Please respect copyright.PENANAGkE1nq1scj

178Please respect copyright.PENANA5hcMaiqULW
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANA4sh7pHZcf2
178Please respect copyright.PENANAFIwECuS603
"You don't speak to me that way."178Please respect copyright.PENANAbZn7tIH88i
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3xcuWhxozk
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANA6JbMF6Tz2G
178Please respect copyright.PENANAHjdzGMPaVm
The pain barely ever registers, and she realizes everyone can see her cuts. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAJHF6qicwrj
178Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4NsYXx8Sj
"Your neck." Evenlyn says.178Please respect copyright.PENANAYg6bD3C6tS
178Please respect copyright.PENANA255caj7WG1
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAgPcJbx5TDP
178Please respect copyright.PENANA7H69dfn81s
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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAKY68qdhZ3H
178Please respect copyright.PENANAm7eVyZ00Nk
"They are really messed up." Evelyn says.178Please respect copyright.PENANA8JukmOOLE9
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3ng4BYCbQt
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANA7dOHpSmQT5
178Please respect copyright.PENANAdZUXmL0b49
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.178Please respect copyright.PENANA0rhrm8GraK
178Please respect copyright.PENANAeXlwEl0UVv
And the others, they will have problems too." Lindsey adds on.178Please respect copyright.PENANASD522DPRzi
178Please respect copyright.PENANAMIXkGTZfBh
"We convince them to stay to with us." Noah responds.178Please respect copyright.PENANAAPDzMYUIPX
178Please respect copyright.PENANAxbeYBqF47p
"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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAik0wCgiYC2
178Please respect copyright.PENANABfbKmaHfcU
"I know."178Please respect copyright.PENANA5v86NZ8YbX
178Please respect copyright.PENANAQRi8LWhLL3
"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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANA3N1LkTTuXP
178Please respect copyright.PENANAafsAXo2GQq
Not the same as the bed she just gave up.178Please respect copyright.PENANAZYdOkJo0i3

---178Please respect copyright.PENANAbEmie6plLR
178Please respect copyright.PENANAEYXXBlU6jI
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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAbs7LqNmpVZ
178Please respect copyright.PENANAWsOPyCwzOz
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.178Please respect copyright.PENANAbm08RiQyVP
178Please respect copyright.PENANAE4iSoS5t0g
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. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAcdhk6ibaJf
178Please respect copyright.PENANANJ0TFgc576
Evelyn and Noah notice her, and Noah fills a small bowl for her, cutting his food in half and holds it out to her.178Please respect copyright.PENANAWam7fQnBtU
178Please respect copyright.PENANAE8EzL9qkBo
"You sure?" Beth asks. He nods his head and holds the bowl out further to her. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAFiyFdjTkw4
178Please respect copyright.PENANAqrbrDqsugI
"Thank you." She tells him, taking a seat. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAe7fOncBVHr
178Please respect copyright.PENANAa8uH0aXwt8
"Can I ask-" Evelyn begins. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAD3sgq3XMfA
178Please respect copyright.PENANAE7NnjwF53y
"I knew that was coming. I tried to kill myself, end of story." Beth snaps, then spoons the food into her mouth. 178Please respect copyright.PENANAjxIZFXe8XY
178Please respect copyright.PENANAVJIhxBhmGI
