I came too to see that I was still tied up, I had something stuffed in my mouth, and my back was on fired for whatever they were doing to me.This is not how I thought trying to survive a zombie apocalypse would have been, he being tied up by some rowdy bunch who was doing all this for fun.They had Eva tired to a tree stomp and burning her with a hot iron all over the body.I didn't know if Mustang was still alive or not because he was unmoving.They were threatening to do things to Chrisean and Mia before my eyes.And they only one who wasn't having any problem was Abby, who was sitting on the man who said he was God's lap.She was telling him how she would do anything to please him, and I knew it wasn't a strategy for us to escape.I still can't fantom the thought that people were like this. They would rather see people suffer than come together to help fight for the human race.Maybe that's why my brother said in the letter that I should pick who I choose to carry on the ship with

Not seeing any immediate threat, we got out of the car.‘’Maybe we can find another car along the way,’’ Eva said, assessing the damage done to the front of the car.‘’I doubt it, each time we only got lucky,’’ Chrisean said.There was a rustling in the bush and before any of us could react, a zombie sunk it’s teeth in Eva’s neck.She screamed out and tried to fight him off, but I guess she was too weak.‘’Eva!’’ Mustang yelled and fired several shots, but none of them hit the zombie.He aimed again, but Chrisean pushed his gun away.‘’Stop, it’s too late for her now and it might attract more zombies to us.’’But mustang didn’t want to hear any of that, he fired several more shots.I thought he was trying to get the zombie, but his aim was right at Eva.‘’I am sorry, Eva,’’ he said as her lifeless eyes stared at him.There was a roar and Mustang ran off without another word.I pulled Mia along with me, telling myself that I can’t let her die like Lura. I promised that I will take her

We got to a spring, and just as Mustang was about to suggest something, a female ran out in the road.The car swerved and came to a stop, I thought Mustang would have reversed but instead he sped up.‘’What? She needed our help,’’ I said.‘’No, the fuck that bitch doesn’t!’’When I looked back I saw two men waving their guns in the air and laughing.There was nothing for me to say, but to look ahead as if I was the one driving.‘’What if we don’t make it to the ship?’’ Chrisean suddenly said. ‘’I don’t want to be a downer, but there are all these odds against us. I don’t know if we will make it.’’‘’Little lady, best believe that we will. Despite what we have to go through,’’ Mustang said.‘’I have been through worse than this. Was once stuck in the desert for twenty days, no food no water and the moment I was about to give up I saw a dead camel. You want to know what I did?’’He paused for dramatic effect.‘’I ate pieces of its meat raw and had to drink cactus juice. Then finally I w

I didn’t know how long we where at Dr Lynn’s for.I didn’t know if she was making progress, I didn’t know if the ships were still there or how longer we had left to live.We were told nothing, and all Dr Lynn and Mustang did was talk and laughed with each other.She was mostly cooped up in her lab, while he made friends with the men who were protecting this place.I was becoming restless, and I guess Chrisean was as well.While sitting around the table and bouncing my leg up and down, a thought came to me and without a second thought I got up and went down to the lab.I pushed the door open to see Dr Lynn just standing there.She didn’t turn to face me, but her voice was angry.‘’Why are you disturbing me.’’‘’I think we have been here long enough, and nothing is happening. Did you find a cure? Can we go to those ships? What?’’She laughed.‘’Do you really think that science only takes a day or even five days? Kid, there are trial and errors until we get it all right.’’‘’Yes, but at

I ran back to where Mustang was standing, his eyes were filled with so much sadness I could almost feel the raw emotions rolling off him.‘’Where is Chrisean and Mia?’’ I asked.With a heavy sigh he mustered the courage to deliver the bitter news.‘’I’m, sorry kid, I couldn’t protect them. The group of hostiles got to them first.’’‘’What?’’‘’You know I would protect myself to save them, but I couldn’t get to them in time.’’1A wave of disbelief crashed over me, and tears welled up in my eyes as the realization settled in. The pain and anguish of losing them engulfed me, Mia was like a little sister to me, and the time spent with Chrisean made me fall in love with her.I just couldn’t accept this; I still couldn’t believe his words and even though I knew that he told the truth I still searched for them.‘’Chrisean! Mia!’’ I began to yell their names.‘’Jeremy, I know that you feel some sort of way, but please keep it down else them sickos will come back for us.’’In my grief, I lash
