Our group are asleep around the diming table, the fire in the fireplace dying out and reduced to a few embers still alive. 163Please respect copyright.PENANA9TfmBM9K9x
163Please respect copyright.PENANARrdaLub9VW
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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAysweWHt2QB
163Please respect copyright.PENANALn9bg1bldH
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANA5rWMGsl9nu
163Please respect copyright.PENANAPytbZzxBbo
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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAhzxkDmTFpk
163Please respect copyright.PENANAa2nq2EPLex
"Enjoy your skinny dipping, Gid..."163Please respect copyright.PENANAbwcMxfpR0t
163Please respect copyright.PENANAUDGJwgDV0s
"Mmm, Slate?" Beth whispers, stretching her arms, waking up. He takes a seat on the bed. "How'd you sleep?" He asks, smiling.163Please respect copyright.PENANAAYPWeLHHAF
163Please respect copyright.PENANAfudXej4MNS

"Think it was cause we saw that weird person hobbling around after dark."163Please respect copyright.PENANALI0Ts275q0
163Please respect copyright.PENANALiniSNygIi
"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."163Please respect copyright.PENANAyU3ZAIT8sW
163Please respect copyright.PENANA7OUrJl3Ihb

163Please respect copyright.PENANATGcgw9byBf
"Sure, one performance coming up sometime."163Please respect copyright.PENANAoQyZJwQkLe
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..."163Please respect copyright.PENANAKbAJZIMBsX
163Please respect copyright.PENANAeAykbpuVIi
"Can think of pop culture refrences and other stuff?"163Please respect copyright.PENANAAIRDJCwwqG

"Yeah."163Please respect copyright.PENANAcibkV7CHOF

"We'll have to ask the others what they remember."163Please respect copyright.PENANAz8tEs3YB6S
163Please respect copyright.PENANA26CRoez1Gk
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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAFGm1SS0DWf
163Please respect copyright.PENANAzuD3ihdeZc
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAPjcHog0rrx
163Please respect copyright.PENANAT0pPuVOAG7
"I'm sorry, Slate."163Please respect copyright.PENANAD1vVN7znCh
163Please respect copyright.PENANAlcyeWhes6c
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANA4fKlvpuHuy
163Please respect copyright.PENANA1wisUIyf6x
"Slate."163Please respect copyright.PENANAb9MKd9twWR

163Please respect copyright.PENANAvQpImS09SA
Both watching Zekey now licking Paisley in the face who's laughing, Lyla patting the top of his furry little ears.163Please respect copyright.PENANAjf0sJXD1OP
163Please respect copyright.PENANAHgUCcYFEF3

"I'm hungry."163Please respect copyright.PENANAuRXxG17NPd

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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAYjpCdhL2dg
163Please respect copyright.PENANAyzzQXNm5dK

163Please respect copyright.PENANAUfLiX6XicQ
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAElT1vbaw0f
163Please respect copyright.PENANAcWdm7aeXg8
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANABIKRtLfnbz
163Please respect copyright.PENANAqH630UZeHQ
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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAok02CQ0f0H
163Please respect copyright.PENANAouixhX8Y3z
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAM5ibqhwroT
163Please respect copyright.PENANAYvqtiDYYAi
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAoIA3meB2vs
163Please respect copyright.PENANAbwOaQsbg2U
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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAI09CwduSLb
163Please respect copyright.PENANAahmMWq8mUj
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAuTbGWsR491
163Please respect copyright.PENANAk8MSUCurh9
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANALQZYdkNGcQ
163Please respect copyright.PENANAElgJOV9s6D
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAIZiLqxyGSP
163Please respect copyright.PENANAK1h1WzkM5D
She can't move out the way and closes her eyes, arms over her face, bracing for impact.163Please respect copyright.PENANAseCV016Duw
163Please respect copyright.PENANAiLvOpsxKlU
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAv3McVHp1fC
163Please respect copyright.PENANAVyGBAGV0vv
"Are you bitten?" The man asks.163Please respect copyright.PENANAnvZXuRbdgS
163Please respect copyright.PENANAKlFtLb9wSk
"Bitten?"163Please respect copyright.PENANAFpoW9pOPJ1
163Please respect copyright.PENANALK2y8qLYlm
"Did the zombite bite you?"163Please respect copyright.PENANAJkXa16l2Xz
163Please respect copyright.PENANALjOvxTbhjD
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAMTaUL02GRZ
163Please respect copyright.PENANAmnq03sijpf
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?"163Please respect copyright.PENANAPGV8oq9SG2
163Please respect copyright.PENANAwNe1hYxiLI
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?!"163Please respect copyright.PENANAQuVchNHWQN
163Please respect copyright.PENANAs2ZAVF6KRA
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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAmGRwHypogE
163Please respect copyright.PENANAKaZtBksMB6
"It's just twisted, not broken."163Please respect copyright.PENANA3iVXP4QQT3

"Are you a doctor?" Slate asks. 163Please respect copyright.PENANA61U58jxZx6
163Please respect copyright.PENANAFXy4uwMsPl
"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."163Please respect copyright.PENANAyox7l0JGQT
163Please respect copyright.PENANAj58quLknpZ
"Call me girly again, and I will bite your dick off." Beth hisses.163Please respect copyright.PENANA4pGdav69NS
163Please respect copyright.PENANAqspbsuhiTz
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANA3ULrJE4YrY
163Please respect copyright.PENANAaPci1YE3Ar
She nods. "Who are you both, and what are you doing out here?"163Please respect copyright.PENANAxjIewIT6Ik
163Please respect copyright.PENANADgJ5kjwFS8
"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-"163Please respect copyright.PENANA2N74qlELaP
163Please respect copyright.PENANA75pmB91DXO
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAbvh8swt3ij
163Please respect copyright.PENANAo5VlQ86DOf
"I don't want to talk about it."163Please respect copyright.PENANAHUl5ozYlSF
163Please respect copyright.PENANAkQ54Yxbr2W
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAdNwJOjFcZb
163Please respect copyright.PENANAQGtMvASWFj
We have those supplies, warmer clothes, we have a RV. We can help you both." Noah tells them.163Please respect copyright.PENANAZH9XCVkAgS
163Please respect copyright.PENANA0fdVGwupNX
"How old are you guys even? You look barely 18." Evelyn judges them. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAXQtfSaz6Ey
163Please respect copyright.PENANAAm1A1bqJIq

163Please respect copyright.PENANAkIsdAuQAN1

163Please respect copyright.PENANAxuzHjcanyc
"Slate, we still need food. There is us, three other hungry people and a dog." Beth points out.163Please respect copyright.PENANAwmhE0RNkht
163Please respect copyright.PENANAMFQ9VewZTo
"Wait, there is more of you?" Evelyn says.163Please respect copyright.PENANAVnL7OBhIPn
163Please respect copyright.PENANAWxWZM2T00m
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAVPZnUaqyze
163Please respect copyright.PENANA1MP0ZVA09E

163Please respect copyright.PENANAkiZnioca0z
"Beth!" Slate says. 163Please respect copyright.PENANA8u9gzzgNfa
163Please respect copyright.PENANAALCgw3MnsD
"Slate, we're all fucking miserable, cold, hungry and tired. We have no food and few medical supplies. Bandages is all we have. 163Please respect copyright.PENANA04ib2IbT4E
163Please respect copyright.PENANAatHuR6a3KM
Let's just accept their help. They could have shot us and they didn't, rather they killed that zombie instead."163Please respect copyright.PENANAAcqv01ok2d
163Please respect copyright.PENANAPVBW2Vzvj6
He sighs. "Okay, fine."163Please respect copyright.PENANAzrzzDB3JTR
163Please respect copyright.PENANAl5kPcf1AvN
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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAEqZwt0TLdK
163Please respect copyright.PENANA58SR9Atqeh
After a few minutes, he returns with everyone and Zekey. They step onto the RV.163Please respect copyright.PENANAzy41o9uWds
163Please respect copyright.PENANADMZEBOlRlV
"Uh, hi everyone! I'm Noah, I used to be a primary school teacher - Kindergarten. This is Lindsey-"163Please respect copyright.PENANA9B65LnhxmN

"People like me?!" Evenlyn says annoyed. 163Please respect copyright.PENANA4izHqrzvZs
163Please respect copyright.PENANAQdlbJy3wiT

163Please respect copyright.PENANAb7KHhT01DL
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANA1AeqDJFFT7
163Please respect copyright.PENANACfzVyrlMkI
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAYeXBcNBGl6
163Please respect copyright.PENANAm6YmVNyCox
"That is a fire lookout up there you know?" Lindsey points out to Beth. "Okay." She says, not interested in talking. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAHOp7al9x7d
163Please respect copyright.PENANAjS4XZwYQh3

163Please respect copyright.PENANA6BuFdPfWuE
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANArSJi6Nc7a7
163Please respect copyright.PENANAohOAvKzZjF
"You don't speak to me that way."163Please respect copyright.PENANAG7fuAMfQpK

"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAZxvunfU9KU
163Please respect copyright.PENANAw40Zz5YdS6
The pain barely ever registers, and she realizes everyone can see her cuts. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAOEMh0lwM2X
163Please respect copyright.PENANA7kYRkCxvyx
"Your neck." Evenlyn says.163Please respect copyright.PENANA0kcTueVm76
163Please respect copyright.PENANANPswIyFmtC
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAMAvIs6LtNo
163Please respect copyright.PENANAOqYWVv2Vsj
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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAfNPc6sSGbC
163Please respect copyright.PENANAVDArs6s0Jt
"They are really messed up." Evelyn says.163Please respect copyright.PENANAFG2cNJkLfi
163Please respect copyright.PENANAKMzQnUuoOQ
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANARSz6T5bgou
163Please respect copyright.PENANATg34uOqRLg
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.163Please respect copyright.PENANA9bLpSvII0t
163Please respect copyright.PENANAUiXUDjlW0g
And the others, they will have problems too." Lindsey adds on.163Please respect copyright.PENANA1LAcF6mJ1x
163Please respect copyright.PENANASGtXtreGuG
"We convince them to stay to with us." Noah responds.163Please respect copyright.PENANAOIGIynNiVq
163Please respect copyright.PENANARQVB8oJWkB
"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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAa6BrkPPX1I
163Please respect copyright.PENANAIK0lT1V0kj
"I know."163Please respect copyright.PENANAdrwNHxevVI
163Please respect copyright.PENANAOAn9mzYZm7
"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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAcWi5RSD0mG
163Please respect copyright.PENANAMfKkhBmNyt
Not the same as the bed she just gave up.163Please respect copyright.PENANAVLmDyaKyp0

---163Please respect copyright.PENANAKYA7Wk6KI2
163Please respect copyright.PENANAesauiYB6OJ
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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAIvTc7zfVzf
163Please respect copyright.PENANABG395fRi4A
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.163Please respect copyright.PENANAVPncMtQYzh
163Please respect copyright.PENANA3EsVV0fAp7
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. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAAsUc4VIjld
163Please respect copyright.PENANAo6vnYigORZ
Evelyn and Noah notice her, and Noah fills a small bowl for her, cutting his food in half and holds it out to her.163Please respect copyright.PENANAOv3rbIBzJ1
163Please respect copyright.PENANANNNjY6Slzj
"You sure?" Beth asks. He nods his head and holds the bowl out further to her. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAsnlXQBKhzY
163Please respect copyright.PENANABrCDQtNwx5
"Thank you." She tells him, taking a seat. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAIoS631RaHZ

"Can I ask-" Evelyn begins. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAZ582gY5YQ9
163Please respect copyright.PENANAY3gdjUbov2
"I knew that was coming. I tried to kill myself, end of story." Beth snaps, then spoons the food into her mouth. 163Please respect copyright.PENANAgDgTK8Shrh

"Sounds good. You're picking it up." Slate smiles at Beth.163Please respect copyright.PENANA1GLMwKmRb5

163Please respect copyright.PENANAEKmP8ED8zb
"Left where?" Slate asks confused, looking at Evelyn and her belly. Bethany waves her hand, giving him the look to shut up. 163Please respect copyright.PENANADNTYkaJMlJ

He gets it. "Uh... So, what are we going to do about-"163Please respect copyright.PENANAXCOY6abCZf

163Please respect copyright.PENANA9HZtZ18uKM
