The rain made a soft splashing sound the perfect sound track to her depressing walk through a land of misery and pain. She looked up at the sky, gazed upon the cloud covered sky and continued her walk through the empty streets looking for any signs of a survivor. Boom Boom the flash from the muzzle lighting up her tear stained face, Boom cracked her rifle as the bullet tore through the air and split the head of an undead man trying to stand up.She walked forward a few feet and dropped to her knees.
She looked at the sky and screamed with tears running down her face "Come get me", she could barley talk between sobs "You basterds you took him now take me, ME"
She held up her rifle and put the barrel in her mouth as a small tear dropped down her cheek and started to squeeze the trigger.
"Hey there, what are you doing?" shouted a voice from nowhere; she looked up and saw a woman about 5'11 with messy brown hair and deep blue eyes standing up on the fire escape on the parallel building from where she was kneeling.
"Hey there little lady it can't be that bad", the women said as she jumped down from the fire escape.
"Names Marie and I know a safe place we can go, but we gotta go now."
"No, I'm not going I'm going to end it here" she shouted back. "Come on we all have lost someone, but the best way to remember them is to live on."
She couldn't say anything back because her sobs grew louder and more uncontrollable
"Come with me miss we can go to our safe house and talk about what happened", Marie said calmly.
"My my name's Rose", she managed to speak
"Well, now Rose we better get you safe"
"Ok"
Marie helped Rose to her feet and embraced her as they walked through the land of misery and pain back to a place of light and hope.
