Our group are asleep around the diming table, the fire in the fireplace dying out and reduced to a few embers still alive. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAQ0B3PzYzAV
209Please respect copyright.PENANAzDYVC6C9Jq
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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAvnluw7pBQU
209Please respect copyright.PENANAOHBV44k1EY
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAwadU0Eqzhz
209Please respect copyright.PENANAOR25oRhNRX
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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAKuHQdI6JiR

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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAynOLUA2XyC
209Please respect copyright.PENANA6j1ZsCrAYJ
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANA7hSvsewHvj
209Please respect copyright.PENANAx7kZEPuYR1
"I'm sorry, Slate."209Please respect copyright.PENANAqtFF45LYRQ
209Please respect copyright.PENANAJKYAhbksF0

"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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAA4HMutV9Bf
209Please respect copyright.PENANAHLbOFpINrd
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAVbnZayBiri
209Please respect copyright.PENANALF5smsmirp
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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAvCj1KWLhmX
209Please respect copyright.PENANAP22cUMAzWC
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAQayuYsylpW
209Please respect copyright.PENANAdEEjcy0DX3
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAHuADHi5C0n
209Please respect copyright.PENANAAzz2DZ1GkY
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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAwlsNsq9yCT
209Please respect copyright.PENANAFdkhUMp8JD
"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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAULrXb45cpr
209Please respect copyright.PENANA6zdfgW6VgH
"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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAxMpuDdh6S5
209Please respect copyright.PENANAvtiOYONMN1
"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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAftOmCQ8Faf
209Please respect copyright.PENANA0fvIlQ06kv
She can't move out the way and closes her eyes, arms over her face, bracing for impact.209Please respect copyright.PENANAdgOxPGSnq4
209Please respect copyright.PENANAv3OhnghTKX
"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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAeeLYOsVe3a
209Please respect copyright.PENANALdhhNek0l8
"Are you bitten?" The man asks.209Please respect copyright.PENANAGdds0s1chB

"Did the zombite bite you?"209Please respect copyright.PENANAoglFHec7gw
209Please respect copyright.PENANAzkmN0vSSSP
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANApGBGHCNt0C
209Please respect copyright.PENANAFIubXMtTmr
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?"209Please respect copyright.PENANAVLO95Np0kZ
209Please respect copyright.PENANAhVRb42bXx5
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?!"209Please respect copyright.PENANAHXkOY9KwfD
209Please respect copyright.PENANAoNqRwh7M1B
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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAPFnIKBeXk6
209Please respect copyright.PENANA0iiF6aHCkX
"It's just twisted, not broken."209Please respect copyright.PENANA8S0ULKoNBP

"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."209Please respect copyright.PENANATFHmgJO5FB
209Please respect copyright.PENANAFCATQevMVh
"Call me girly again, and I will bite your dick off." Beth hisses.209Please respect copyright.PENANAD343XjVfUA
209Please respect copyright.PENANAFvIroMLpXc
"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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANACHt0bS94yn
209Please respect copyright.PENANAODjp0ZrLfT
She nods. "Who are you both, and what are you doing out here?"209Please respect copyright.PENANAUDx3o5ORPW
209Please respect copyright.PENANAPp7teFxGLC
"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-"209Please respect copyright.PENANAKFS1pLFEsm
209Please respect copyright.PENANAZmdq8T8jeE
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANA84tG6Ko7i1

"I don't want to talk about it."209Please respect copyright.PENANAPl6fpQPsEG
209Please respect copyright.PENANADYAXKkw1IL
"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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANATg4FGOUdcW
209Please respect copyright.PENANAUMllpdKgj9
We have those supplies, warmer clothes, we have a RV. We can help you both." Noah tells them.209Please respect copyright.PENANAomyH7seOfY

209Please respect copyright.PENANAjG1bOsyl5M

"Wait, there is more of you?" Evelyn says.209Please respect copyright.PENANAluMLW7KTzK

209Please respect copyright.PENANAAU81rTW1Z5
Let's just accept their help. They could have shot us and they didn't, rather they killed that zombie instead."209Please respect copyright.PENANARqr8tdMdlq
209Please respect copyright.PENANAtDQbL7GzxQ
He sighs. "Okay, fine."209Please respect copyright.PENANAcaRqJ8Fko2
209Please respect copyright.PENANADFjK6FNJSm
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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAGaj5qKC8Ki
209Please respect copyright.PENANAmT1zZa781s
After a few minutes, he returns with everyone and Zekey. They step onto the RV.209Please respect copyright.PENANA6HeVIzA5hh

209Please respect copyright.PENANAUKaPzegUR8
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAxObUUHpmwr
209Please respect copyright.PENANApuETMVN6v9
"That is a fire lookout up there you know?" Lindsey points out to Beth. "Okay." She says, not interested in talking. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAj6a5CGIi4P

209Please respect copyright.PENANAdM8rqOX6cU
The pain barely ever registers, and she realizes everyone can see her cuts. 209Please respect copyright.PENANA8nE5niLzPn
209Please respect copyright.PENANAF4pS49gzPP
"Your neck." Evenlyn says.209Please respect copyright.PENANAD8xQ58thrL
209Please respect copyright.PENANAfp8LCBt0Uj
"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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAAUNt920FYB
209Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZBkKOUcDY
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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAkYV9PDR2Gs
209Please respect copyright.PENANAyjnD7ZHQLx
"They are really messed up." Evelyn says.209Please respect copyright.PENANAgrTDIiVN5e

209Please respect copyright.PENANAvqbgC4wbFZ
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.209Please respect copyright.PENANABCzpNwILvy
209Please respect copyright.PENANAmIW4ZQX7OV
And the others, they will have problems too." Lindsey adds on.209Please respect copyright.PENANALJ9RuoiQdy
209Please respect copyright.PENANABJFTwVBJDq
"We convince them to stay to with us." Noah responds.209Please respect copyright.PENANAGzpNJFlH79
209Please respect copyright.PENANAeZQncHqEiN

209Please respect copyright.PENANAWSFG4hm7Im
"I know."209Please respect copyright.PENANAAjrE6zfWsC
209Please respect copyright.PENANAU3oTZ6wxsp
"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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5rqyIkKF5
209Please respect copyright.PENANAUANV0HlIEq
Not the same as the bed she just gave up.209Please respect copyright.PENANA3hXXWfzdai

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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAfTSbU9d0iy
209Please respect copyright.PENANAzUk63TtdMm
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.209Please respect copyright.PENANAcFZRlCFUbI
209Please respect copyright.PENANADBvNcOUJfd
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. 209Please respect copyright.PENANAodLFOdL1gJ
209Please respect copyright.PENANAVwmjrWuZQf
Evelyn and Noah notice her, and Noah fills a small bowl for her, cutting his food in half and holds it out to her.209Please respect copyright.PENANAWhjOYeIPmz

"You sure?" Beth asks. He nods his head and holds the bowl out further to her. 209Please respect copyright.PENANARHEuExiFys

"Can I ask-" Evelyn begins. 209Please respect copyright.PENANATK5texrELg
209Please respect copyright.PENANAg9S7AEP9ti
