p style="text-align: left;"It's been a little over a year since an asteroid collided with the moon moving it closer to the earth. To make matters worse it's only been a few weeks since a tornado came through my home town Howell and we had to leave. Ever since that day we lost many people from our little group. We have lost my dad, my mom, Lisa, Gabriell, Charlie, and Alex's little sister brothers wife told me about a safe town a while back and that is where we are heading right now. By we I mean by two brothers Matt and John Evans, Matts wife Syl, and me and my boyfriend Alex. Who am I? Well I am Miranda Evans and this is my story of surviving after almost all home is lost./p
Chapter 1:
We're walking again. Over the empty abandoned roads trying to make a dent in the large amount of miles we still have yet to go.
Me and Alex are walking hand in hand. Jon is right next to us and Matt and Syl like to walk ahead. Our food supply is dangerously low and we will have to find more in a few days. If there is any that is. As I look up at the sky the color is changing from light grey to a darker grey. This means we should find somewhere to camp soon and rest for the night. Alex notices this too and takes the words out of my mouth. " guys keep your eyel peeled it's getting late and we should find some shelter." We all agree and keep walking. Thank god because in a matter of minutes we see a house.
We all jump into action and do our normal routine. Me and Alex check the windows while Jon knocks on the door. Matt and Syl check around the house to make sure they are not outside. The house is empty and we all go in.
Alex and Matt know the drill. They want us to be safe so they tell Syl, Jon, and I to stay in one room just in case. Alex goes around the house to check all the rooms while Matt checks the kitchen then they come back an tell us what they found. Alex comes back first. "Ok guys there are three bedrooms and they are all clear." Then Matt returned "sorry guys no luck how about we just head up to bed."
While Matt, Syl, and Jon are knocked out in about ten minutes me and Alex are talking.
"Alex is there something on your mind?"
"No why would you ask that I'm fine." He said that nervously which was a tell tale sign that something was up.
"Alex your a terrible liar now what's wrong baby?"
"I just let my fears in my head again. I keep havering a night mare that me and you are walking down the road with everyone and then you all just pass out and I'm. . . Alone." and with that I but my hand on his and tried to reassure him.
"It's all right we are going to make it to that town and then we can get married. Everything will be ok."
"Thanks Miranda you always know how to make me feel better."
And with that we quickly kissed each other good night and I drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
