I had to run. I had to leave Tally. I didn't have a choice. They were coming. It had come down to me and her. If I helped her, I wouldn't be alive. It struck me like a knife inside. You don't leave the ones you love. You don't leave the people you've known your whole life.
I still felt her screams rattle me. The screams for help called to me like a death purr. "Don't leave me! You're my sister, Ellis! Help! Ellis! Please!" It could bring tears to anyone. I had only seen them twice. I knew I was gonna see them again. It was impossible not to. They owned Earth.
Every person there was caved in somehow. Emotionally or physically. Didn't matter. I remembered how hard it was. Politics and government seemed like horseplay compared to the problems we had after. Now I lived in a town. No people. Occasional walkers. Lots of lonely. I forgot what day it was and month and year.
All I knew was Tally's calls, my .22, and the busted street. That was the only things that decided to stick around. I was tired of looking out the same view every day. I was tired of eating the same thing. I was tired of having the same conversations with myself. You can easily get tired of stuff. That was me.
The sun hid, clouds revealed. I liked rain, because it didn't come every day. You had to wait for it.
I sat myself on concrete steps. Pass, time, pass. Have you ever waited on time? It's pretty slow. My family used to say, time flies when you're busy. I wasn't busy. Time was pretty slow that day. "Hm, walker." A torn up male walker limped it's way near me. I sighed and took out my gun.
"Bet you had a life, huh?" I chatted. It groaned loudly and limped over again. "A wife and children. Now you're a living corpse. A filthy, forgotten, worthless piece of space that someone else could have." I shot the thing in the head and it fell back. "Like me."
