The ride to the hospital was bumpy. A lot of cars where driving passed us in high speed and a lot of shops where being broken into in daylight damn things where getting bad really bad.
"Shit this is like a fucking movie" Elise said as she stared out of her window with her eyes wide open. Gary was trying hard not to fall asleep mainly because we begged him not to. He won't die on me not here at least if we are at the hospital. Not like in hoping he would die or anything but just not here."I know right" I said "shit!" I cursed as I nearly ran into a man covered in blood. "Gary you alright back there?" I said."Yeah...... I'm... Good...." He said obviously tired."Just try to stay awake" Elise said. The road was filled with people who where either running or dying? I'm not sure but everything was happening too fast.Huffing and puffing, we finally made it to the hospital. That was the longest 10 minutes of my life.My head was spinning and I'm sure my legs where gonna give up any minute if I don't rest. And Gary wasn't looking good at all. He was starting to look too pale and It was really scary."Gary are you ok?" Elise said as she helped him out of the car."I'm... Fine..." He said between breaths."No you're not we need to hurry" I said as I grabbed his other arm. "Shit looks like we'll be here long " I said as I took in the crowd before us. It was like a fucking protest with lots of people on stretchers.We squeezed our way through the crowd to get to the front desk which was very busy and I could sense the confusion and panic.People where yelling and some where attacking from everywhere and everything was just messy. There goes my perfect graduation wish. Fuck this island. "What's your emergency?" The woman at the front desk asked."Urm ... An injured leg ma'am" I answered"Number of patients" doesn't an mean one? Jesus."One""Cause?""Bite""Infected?""Yes"Her eyes looked panicked as she looked down and typed somethings."Fifth floor use the elevators at the left" she then yelled next and we began to move. Gary is really heavy and I wasn't enjoying this one bit. I mean no one is so.. who am I to complain."I can't.... Move...." Gary said as we got to the elevator."We're literally holding you" I snapped and Elise punched my arm "ouch" I glared at her and she shrugged."It's just few more steps you can do it" Elise said.We stepped into the elevator and headed to the fifth floor. As we stepped out, I was nearly knocked down by the number of people there. The place was swamped. All the seats where taken and lot of sick people where standing."Take a seat we'll get back to you" the nurse we met said as she called next. We nodded as we walked towards the end of the line damn there wasn't any space."Let's check the exit side I'm sure they'll be space" Elise led us towards the exit where a water fountain was.We finally got space there and helped Gary to sit. He looked really bad and it was really disturbing.Elise sat down by his left and I sat by his right. We watched as people entered for checkup and watched as some who where chained to beds wheeled to only God knows where.Some never even used the exit where were they exactly?. Everything was happening fast I couldn't understand what was going on."Guys.... I think.... I'm getting worse" Gary said beside me coughing after every word. Then he began to cough violently. I jumped to my feet as I stepped away from him. Elise did the same as she looked at me as if saying what the fuck.His removed his hands from his mouth and it was stained with blood. He began to cough blood and some people seemed to notice the chaos as I heard whispers.I was so confused as I heard different people begin to cough everything was happening too fast. Elise began to call for the nurse but I just stood there. Some men dressed in bio- hazard suits rushed to us with a stretcher and chains. And began to pick Gary up."Hey he's having a seizure you're not supposed to move him!" I screamed finally getting my voice back but the men ignored me. "Hey!" I called again but they still ignored me. Gary trashed around as the wheeled him towards the door the badly infected people went through. They opened the door and it became bloody.A nurse whose hands where detached from her body ran out screaming in pain as she fell. The room became hot as people began to run towards the exit. People began to panic and run ."Eth!!" Elise screamed my name from the other side of the room as people began to push everyone around."El!!" I screamed as I tried to locate her. I couldn't see her but I could hear her screams. My head began to spin due to the way I was twisting and turning. I couldn't find her and things where getting worst. The nurse who was bleeding was now bitting people and the people where bitting other people and Elise was missing.Should I wait for her? Should I ? Or should I run outside and wait for her ? All my thoughts came to a stop as I heard a gun- shot fired behind me. I whipped my head to see the commotion and I saw a man with a revolver shooting at a sick man.My body couldn't move as I watched the man being shot a million times. Then that's when it hit me. This is the real deal nothing will ever be the same again. The world was going crazy or will I say the island?.Shit this is the apocalypse."Ethel!!!" I heard my name but I couldn't move. I felt my heart beat faster. "Eth!!!" The voice screamed over the noise but I still couldn't move. An arm wrapped around mine as I felt tugging "Eth we have to leave!" She dragged me as I stumbled a bit finally feeling my legs. The stairs was crowded. We couldn't use the elevators because they where shut down. Bullets where flying everywhere and we had to leave now. We ran down the stairs which wasn't easy at all as everyone was trying to evacuate the building. Elise was right in front of me as she let go of my hands."You have to keep up Eth!" She said as she ran with me behind her trying to catch up. The people in the first floor jumped up as we poured down running for the front door. They all jumped up alarmed as they also tried to run. I watched as a man crushed a little girl who was trying to run away and it wasn't a funny sight.I wish we never made it here. I know pointing fingers isn't right but this wasn't the best choice w
The place was very noisy which was getting really annoying. Like too annoying."We should've stayed in the hotel" I scoffed as I adjusted myself on the floor. "Yeah right... We would've ran out of food and supplies " Elise said and she was making so much sense it was getting more annoying."If you keep staring at them you'll definitely freak them out" Jake said which made my heart nearly leave my body because of how close he was to me. "I'm just looking at thier faces Incase one of them looks sick yunno" I shrugged "Yeah well you have to me more worried about getting robbed, raped, kidna..." "Hey ! Thanks alot I feel so much better now"I rolled my eyes and he chuckled. I watched as the workers passed around food in plastic bags for us to eat and my stomach grumbled happily "You must be really hungry" Elise said beside me "I'm so hungry too" "Yeah.... I'm really hungry" I took the plastic bag from the worker and thanks her as I opened it. There was a bottle of water ,a sandwich,
We walked through the football field as we tried to locate Lester's car. As we made way around court, like an alarm was rung, an army of sick people came pushing through every corner of the main building and they where coming straight for us. Lena let out a scream as we began to run." Fuck!!!" I screamed in frustration as I ran with the guys at my heels we ran as fast as we could but the sick people where faster than we imagine. "Shit they are fast" Elise screamed as she ran faster. Like the universe was totally mad at me, I tripped on my own foot and fell face down."Ethel!" I heard my name being screamed as I tried to get myself up. I pushed myself up but I was pushed down as a heavy weight fell on me. Damn those things stink. I heard the gnashing of teeth and the snarling close to my ears which wasn't a pleasant sound at all. My elbow collided with it's face as I used my legs to kick it off me. Elise then grabbed me by the collar and pulled me towards her. I then managed to g
"we don't want any trouble " Lester said as he turned and looked at me. I shifter nervously as I tired my best not to talk. I mean there's a gun to my head. "I don't want any trouble either so do not move" the man said."What did you do to the others" Lester asked. "What others?" The man said looking very confused. "It's only you guys I saw so far" he said. "Names". The man demanded. He's really strict."My name is Ethel and this is Lester" I said looking from the man to Lester."we really mean no harm. We actually came here to get some supplies" The man eyed us thoroughly before he lowered the gun."Be careful where you walk into" the man said and I nodded. "We are really sorry we didn't know someone was in here" Lester said damn I was still shaking. "Well I'll strike a deal" the man cracked a smile and I gulped. I hate deals. " What deal"Lester looked confused."You'll take us with you" what?"What?" Yes I think he read my mind there "we don't have a destination" Lester said a
With Moe as the lead we walked into the store slowly. We looked around at the dark store only lighted by the ray of sun coming through the window. The shelves looked untouched and it made it easier to walk through.I kept my ear out for any sound Incase there where sick people in here. But the only sound I could hear was our footsteps. "Let's split up to make it out faster" Lester said and we all picked places and went to pack supplies. I chose the drugs and other hygiene cubicle. I'm sure Elise would be shy to pick tampons but me... Oh well. I picked extra toothbrushes, some towels, soaps and some face masks. What? I'm looking forward to looking good. I peeked to the other side and saw Elise also picking soaps and some shampoo. So I picked some bandages, antiseptics, aspirin and some other drugs. Filled two baskets in total as I made my way around the shelves to find Elise. I heard a weird sound coming from behind the shelves. It sounded like snapping but I ignored it and kept w
"I miss mom" Elsie said as she leaned her head on my shoulder. She helped me clean my healing wound and we were in our room just staring at the world. With no TV, and quarantined in a house with a bunch of strangers teaching you how to shoot guns and survive on deer and rabbits, trust me you'll stare at the wall at your leisure time. "I miss her too El and I also miss dad" she shrugged as she fell on the bed. " Whatever" she sighed "You still hate the man?" I chuckled as I laid down beside her. " We both know you hate him too" "Well.... I don't make it so obvious " "Well I'm sorry if his presence makes me want to puke""You're so dramatic " I laughed and she laughed with me."It's been so long since I've cracked a smile" she took a deep breath."I know right.... It's been so long" I looked at the ceiling damn... If we keep going like this we'll definitely loose our minds."Do you ever think of looking for a cell booth and contact mom?" Elise asked "You know that's impossible "
We were all jittering well i can say for myself not them though. They looked very calm. As we where driving, down the quiet road, I noticed how Lester was sneaking glances at me. "What is it?" I asked"Are you ok?"he said and I laughed. "Of course I am why won't I ?" He sighed and looked away. Well I looked away too. I stared outside the window as I looked at the cars already molding with dirt and all that. There were old flyers and posters with trash making the road look very dirty and way to abandoned like the movies. I watched some sick people dragging themselves on the street and some that followed our car. "I think we're attracting more than loosing the zombies" Moe said and I sighed. "Yes true I think we should get off the road" the sick people kept coming out of alleys so I think that wasn't a good Idea.Lester hit reverse as he sped down the road as I saw a group or will I say an army of sick people approaching us. "Ok I think we have lost them" he said and I sighed in
We made a camp side where we stacked some blankets we found and some sheets to make comfortable beds. I couldn't even complain about back pain or whatever .We fed on cereals for the night and I was too tired to talk. I laid my head on the shelves behind me for support as I closed my eyes. "We should go to a near by police station to get radios or what ever we can find to get information for any nearby camp" I heard Moe's voice. "I thought we where going back tomorrow?" Lester asked and I sighed I'm sure they'll start arguing. And I have no choice but to pick the latter. "Yes we will it's just to get radios that's all son" "Who made you leader? To tell us what the hell do to" Lester snapped."I'm not....""Lena is all I have and I want to make sure she's safe ""I know son.. but she'll be safer in a camp" "If Ethell wants to go with you it's fine but I'll take the other truck home" I heard footsteps and I cracked an eye open. I saw Lester walking away angrily and I sighed. "I'll
