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, and some cookies. At least it's still food.

I chewed it happily as I looked around the room. The place was jam packed and kind of stuffy. I noticed all the armed men around looking sternly for a sick person. I just hope they don't use the guns again.

" Attention everyone" one the armed men said as he stepped forward "we have an announcement from the national tv quiet down so we can all hear the announcement" the place suddenly quieted down as we all waited for the broadcast to be played.

The broadcast played and the only thing I could pick was that the island was in a state of emergency and everyone should stay indoors and avoid contact with the infected. I mean I'm sure everyone knows this already.

"So the island is in the state of emergency which means... No planes?" Elise asked panicked.

"Well I guess"

"Then how the fuck are we supposed to get of this island" Elise asked

"I don't know ok.... We'll have to find another way"

"What about boats" Jake said I swear I keep forgetting there's someone like him ."or ships"

"Yeah... You're right... We need to get to the ships" Elise said with a lot of hope.

"Elise darling... How do you suppose we do that huh?" I said "the road is swamped with sick people who are hunting for our flesh and ... No service to call our parents at the moment and.... We can't even operate it"

"Yeah .... You're right we're fucked" she said with her mouth full.

"Um..... It's not good to talk with your mouth full" a small voice said behind us. I turned and saw a little girl with red hair and light brown eyes looking at Elise with a disapproving look.

"Huh?" Elise said obviously taken aback.

"My pops said you'll choke" the girl said as she tucked her hair behind her ears.

"And your pops is right it's not good" I said with my mouth full too .

"Your mouth is full too" the girl said and Elise chuckled.

"What's your name?" I asked immediately I finished chewing. She was about to answer as I hear a voice

"Lena! " The little girl jumped a little as she turned to look at the person who screamed. I also turned and saw a tall fine boy who looked exactly like her well except for thier hair. His hair was brown and he was well.... Fine.

"Lester" the girl said as she smiled innocently.

"I told you to stay close to me " he eyed her and she shrugged.

"I was playing" the girl said. He sighed and looked our way .

"I'm so sorry hope she wasn't bothering y'all" he smiled.

"Oh no she wasn't" I smiled back and he nodded.

"I'm Lester and this is Lena" he pointed to the little girl.

"I'm Ethel ,this is Elise and this is Jake" I smiled

"Where are you guys from" Lena asked.

"New York" I said and she nodded.

"We're from Canada" she grinned. "My pops said people come here to drink" she smiled.

"Lena..." Her brother said in a warning tone. And I laughed

" Well he's not wrong we actually came here for our last year of freedom before going to college" I said as I took a sip of water.

"We're here on vacation" Lester finally said.

"Can we stay with you guys?" Lena asked with so much hope in her eyes.

"Of course you can" Elise said. She was obviously saying it because of Lester not Lena .

Lena jumped up and ran back with her brother behind her. They came back almost immediately with Lena pulling her little suitcase and Lester with cots. They set all thier things and we began to talk. Lena was a carefree kid but... I wasn't really good with kids unlike Elise who seemed very happy to answer all her questions.

" I'm so sorry my sister can be a handful" Lester said trying to break the ice

"Oh no problem" I smiled " well my sister seems to be enjoying it" I laughed .

"You guys are sisters?" He asked looking from Elise to me

"You're actually the first to look surprise" I said .

"Well ... Now I can see how your face looks the same" he said still looking at my face

"Well we're twins"

"Really? wow" he said looking more confused which was so amusing.

"What about your ...urm... parents" I asked slowly silently praying that they weren't dead and I didn't open up a wound.

" Well they're in Canada" I guess my face looked so confused "we came here with them but they had to go back for an emergency and didn't want to cut our vacation short"

"Ooh makes sense" I smiled. "Well.... I just hope they bring emergency planes" he nodded.

"I hope this place is safe tho" Lester said and I nodded

"I hope ".

I rolled on the cot which was cold and very uncomfortable and finally gave up as I stared at the ceiling. Elise was sleeping peacefully beside me with her arms wrapped around Lena who was also sleeping soundly. I sighed as I turned one more time.

"Can't sleep?" Jake said from the other side and I turned towards him.

"Oh my what gave it away" I rolled my eyes and he chuckled.

"You're really cranky huh?" He smiled.

"Well... When you're in a death situation I think you'll be too" I said.

"Shhhh" Elise said slowly "you'll wake Lena " she said this with her eyes closed. "Keep your flirting for tomorrow" we both said sorry and I turned to the other side and closed my eyes trying to force myself to sleep.

Like I was cursed, as I was drifting into sleep, I heard a shrilling scream and the whole room became noisy.Elise shot up with the others looking confused and we gathered our things.

"Hurry!!" Lester screamed as we gathered our stuff. I was struggling to zip my suitcase as I stumbled.

"We have to leave them Eth" Elise screamed and I knew she was right. We can't possibly wheel through the sick people.

"Lester .... I'm scared" Lena said as she looked at her brother teary eyed.

"It's ok we'll get out of here" Lester held her hands as he led us through the scattered crowd. Everyone was running around and screaming.

We ran towards the hallway which led to the classes but it was swamped with sick people and they were coming for us.

"Run!" Lester held Lena by the hand and dragged her by the hand. We ran to the other side leading to the gym classes. We ran passed some classes locked with sick people in it and it was getting scarier every moment.

"Hurry!" I ran as I saw dead bodies of some students with uniforms. I saw the exit sign and the happiness built in me covered the nausea. I sighed in relief as I ran and pulled the door.

It opened with a loud sound which hurt my ears.

"Damn I haven't seen outside in like forever" Elise said beside me. Such a drama queen.

As we all stepped outside, the silence amongst us told me they where thinking the same thing.

"Shit" Lester said as he stepped beside me. Yeah shit is what I was thinking. The street was lifeless and bloody. There where crashed cars everywhere. Both bloody and crashed.

The silence sent a shiver down my spine and I wasn't liking it.

"Where do we go from here" Elise held my hands and I could feel her squeezing it. She was really stressed.

"I don't know Elise...." I said looking from left to right. "shouldn't we at least get weapons? You know... Incase those sick people attack again"

"Yeah....you're right but where on earth will we get weapons" Jake said and I turned to look at him. He really has no presence what so ever

" I think we passed a store and I'm sure they have something even though it's a bat" Lester said and I nodded.

"True" but the only problem is....

"We have to be careful I think there are such people around" see..... The twin thing is real

"Elise is right" I said "we have to be very careful".

"But I don't think walking to a store is careful" Jake said.

"Yeah let's use my car" Lester said as he brought a bunch of keys out of his pocket.

"Really ? You had a car this whole time and it's now you're mentioning it?" I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah well it never came up.... So let's go?" Lester said and we followed closely behind him. He was parked at the entrance of the school which I'm sure was packed with sick people.

As we walked back into the building, I saw a hockey stick which looked really strong. Wow at least we had hope of weapons. Elise a broken chair leg and Jake took table leg. I hope this gets us through.

    A tear dropped from my eyes as I smiled at the letter. Elise left me a letter I just couldn't think of how awesome that was . My hands shook as I folded the paper and looked at the map over and over again. I was so happy I couldn't think straight. I stuffed the paper at my back pocket as I hurriedly went to the door with my hands full. I ran towards the car which was now swarming with zombies. Carlos was shooting as I got to the car. I think I helped him by drawing the attention to myself because Carlos was able to shoot ten at once but more where coming. One was so close to Carlos I had to drop the things I got cause my hands where really full. I ran straight towards the zombie and bashed it's head in with my bat which was underneath my pits. It made a weird gurgling sound and fell down jerking with ugly rotten blood gushing out of it's head. I got above it and kept bashing it's head till it stopped moving. Sighing, I wiped my forehead with the sleeve of my shirt and looked at Carl

    I woke up to the sound of screaming from downstairs. Lena was beside me."I was about to wake you up" she said "I think something is happening to Mr Carlos and Abby has been crying" she said .," Go stay with her I'll find out what's going on" I said as I stood up.. I walked down the stairs and I was welcomed with people's scream .I could see Amanda at the front trying to calm the crowd. "Carlos murdered Tim!" An elderly woman screamed."He has to leave " "Yeah!!!" The crowd chorused and I began angry how dare they. "Stop!!" I screamed as I got closer. "y'all are here screaming but you don't know shit! Carlos' wife was taken hostage by The men Jason led here to kill you guys. Innocent lives where lost and now Carlos is the bad guy?" They all went quiet as they looked at who'll talk. "But he still killed someone we don't feel safe around him he has to leave" a woman with thick black hair spoke up "No need to worry I and my daughter are leaving first thing tomorrow morning" I di

    Carlos pacing was starting to get annoying that it made me hungry. Greg brought me a bottle of orange juice as we all waited for Jason to arrive. We barely said a word to each other cause the air was tight Savannah was just biting her nails as she looked around. She seemed restless and I felt she knew something we didn't. "So.... What do we do?" Greg whispered. "I don't know Greg " I said as I looked at Carlos angry face. " Things will really get bad if Jason shows up Carlos is too mad " Amanda was right his eyes where clouded with anger." Maybe if Jason comes, we should tie him up or just restrain him and try to get Carlos to calm down. Before he does something" I said and Greg nodded. ." I have some ropes " Greg said " If you get the ropes we'll need you at the front door for when he arrives and you'll grab in from behind while I stall him" and he nodded "Great let me go grab the ropes" Greg said and I nodded. Savannah watched us with suspicious eyes as Greg went to the d

    The next wasn't any easier. We woke up very early and began to move the dead zombies so we could burn them. A lot of people kept complaining about the weight but I just did what I could so that I could leave right away. The sun was already up when we finished moving the bodies and I was very tired I needed a nap. After a shower, I took a nap and woke up very late in the evening when it was raining heavily. I sighed as I looked outside ."Dammit" I said I overslept and now we where stuck one more night. "Ethel..are we staying here?"Lena asked. We where eating dinner. "Well it's too late and the rain isn't helping " she nodded. "don't you want to stay here?" "I like it it's good but we need to find Lester" i sighed and nodded. I had totally forgotten she also had someone to find. We needed to move by tomorrow I just hope we find. The night sky was clouded with rain clouds and the stars weren't visible at all. I couldn't sleep at all so I sat by the window staring into the dark

    I woke up to the sound of shuffling. I looked around in severe panic as I looked at Lena's side. She was awake and she looked at me. "Ethel....... what's going on" she said looking as confused as I was. "I don't know kiddo let me check" I stood up and peeped out of the window. I saw a lot of people down shooting at some zombies which were approaching in a herd . I immediately ran to my bag fishing out my gun. It was loaded and ready to go. "Stay here and keep your head down" she looked like she wanted to say something but she just nodded. I bursted out of the room and I ran towards the stairs. I stopped when I spotted Amanda. At the bottom of the stairs. "Where are you going" she said and I just pushed passed her."Well I'm going to take those things out " I said and I ran out. I nearly laughed at the way they where shooting. They where just wasting bullets. They stood too far from the zombies and moved back when they got closer. I sighed as I ran back inside. I'm sure there

    We've been cooped up in this house for a week now and I was starting to go crazy. Apart from the reoccurring nightmares about that day. The day I stabbed someone to death the day I watched a man struggle as he took his last breath. Lena usually tells me about my sleep talking every morning. We decided it was finally time to get more ammo. And I thought it would be nice to return to the shop we went first where we found Moe and Kayla. I was presently seated on the floor next to Lena who was sleeping soundly. We already planned on going to the shop the next day and I was having a hard time trying to sleep. The next morning came in a rush. I packed most of the things the night before since I couldn't sleep. By the time we where done, the car trunk was full. I looked back at the house it really saved us. Lena was already in the car when I got in." You ready kiddo?" Lena nodded as I started the car. I hit reverse. Zombies that I haven't noticed started walking out of thier hiding
