Silvia's pov
I was busy looking for useful items in the abandon supermarket that I came across from when I was avoiding the infected, taking notice that I was running out of some food I needed to get some. I had my trusty katana on my hip and my daggers hidden about my body in case it was knocked away from me. Now you might be wondering what is a girl, 18 doing with sharp blades? I use to train with wooden swords and guns along with a few friends going on hunting trips and so, and then got gifted the blades for my unsweet 18.
It's been more than a week that the so called infection hit here, turning everyone that into mindless zombies, wanting nothing but to kill. As for me I don't come from here, the USA I come from merry old England just visiting for a holiday, with a few friends… I have not seen them since the infection came, we got separated and fear for the worse. But now I fight for my life using the skills that I have learnt from survival camp, as much as I could I tried avoided to the infected that wandered around aimless the streets which I dubbed as common infected, by hiding down in dark alleys and rooftops only killing when I really needed too.
Even if they are mindless infected, I could not taking a life. So I made sure that could I avoided, I took note on what I saw on the walls about 'special infected' and now to avoid them but, the only ones I met so far Hunter and Smoker, I avoided a tank before but I haven't seen the others just yet... I continued to look about for healing items keeping my guard up, stuffing items like bandages and medical salves in my trench coat, with every now and again I looked up and then when back to collecting items placing them in my pockets and large backpack.
After finishing picking out items from that section, I wandered towards the food area, placing my black backpack in my front making it easier to place canned food and honey at the bottom of the bag... Why? Honey coming from a family of cooks I learnt that a lot of food like honey don't go out of date even if the super markets say they do, I paused as I thought I heard a noise looking about I saw nothing, continuing to pack the canned food I moved towards other food like dried and easy to consume, I made sure it was in that order, to have items that lasted longer at the bottom and then place my clothes in between the quick to go food.
Finding and placing some cookies in my food compartment of my coat and heard another rustling sound this time closer, then sounding like a cough 'Shit a smoker knows I'm here! I need to kill it quickly' I shifted my right arm down sliding out a knife, with a hollow handle I unclicked the bottom I placed a vile of black mamba venom that I found in that zoo, I walked past the animals seem to have escaped in the chaos and the cages left empty with stains of blood littered on the floors. I quickly threw the knife quick at the shape on my left I watched the venom drain from the vile into the tip of the knife that was stuck in the collar of the smoker, as it groaned and try to move towards me.
It started to lash and whip its tongue at me and missing me by an inch I could see that the venom started to work its way to through its blood system, as the smoker started cough more and move in a sluggish way from what I think was drowsiness as it whipped it tongue at me again missing, annoyed I slashed its tongue off with my sword since its spit splattered on my boots, it seem to know what I was doing and turned to run away moving faster, which would cause the venom to travel faster.
I stood up and went after it; I wanted my knife back placing my bag on my back and sealed the top by tightening the ropes, I chased after it keeping a hand on the handle of my katana in case anything feels like jumping on me as I ran after the smoker. I heard a low hiss in a pocket of my coat shifting, I undid the button and a long darkish brown body slithered out and wrapped around my neck "Sorry love did I wake you?" glancing at the snake for a second and then continued to follow the smoker, it seem to nod and rested it head against my cheek.
As I saw the smoker stumble and fall over in the drinks section I slowly moved forward, my snake shot out and grabbed my knife. "Thanks Hun" I pet its head as I let it crawl up my arm feeding it some chicken. I cleaned my knife on an old blood-stained cloth that I had pulled out from my jeans, I needed to keep my blades clean sighing I made an one- handed pray to the smoker and walked off collecting bottled drinks and placed some energy shots in my pockets then slowly walked towards the alcohol area, to fill up my flask. "Guys grab what is useful and let's get out of here" I snapped my head towards the door when I heard a old male voice speak out, I hid against the shelves that next to and peered out of the corner, seeing three males and one female walk in as I hid back, forming a two plans… one to join them if they allowed me to and one that I didn't want to do unless I really had to and that was to… kill.

As Silvia watched and hid carefully on what was happening, four people she could see that they were not infected but she didn't know if they would hurt her or not as she has seen what some men have done to a woman before they killed her… she shuddered at that thought. 'Mm I if I would join them... they seem to be a nice group but that biker dude… mm' she thought for a moment and then looked about in the section for her vodka "found it" she whispered she found Russian vodka, something that she drinks a lot back home and filled her flask up, taking a sip as well then placing it away and relaxing to the warming feeling the alcohol brought to her.
"Shit! I hate supermarkets, there nothing here!" she rough voice shouted, snapping her head in the direction it came from "shut up Francis you attract some zombie" a female voice came up, Silvia looked around the corner and saw the group walk closer to where she was, quickly she zipped down the frozen meat grabbing some meat and fish. "Mm should I wait? Or just leave here?" she questioned herself quietly before she was hit on the ground, by a heavy body that smelt of rotting flesh "SHIT!"
Zoey heard a shout, before anyone else did but she didn't recognized the voice wanting to help no matter what she runs towards the shout and saw a girl on the floor wrestling with a zombie keeping it away with strength that she has not seen from a girl that small, as she was ready to pull her gun but then stopped when she heard a loud crack near the two with the zombie slumped and the zombie was kicked away with a knife stuck in its chest "A freck how could I not seen that" the girl mumbled to herself as Zoey looked in shock at the girl.
Zoey's pov
I was speechless as I saw the zombie being kicked away I looked at the girl sitting up rubbing her head mumbling something. I took in the girl's appearance with Asian heritage long black hair loose, brown eyes under glasses, a long trench coat over what seems to be a black jumper, long black trousers, fingerless long glove and combat boots. Rushing to her side I looked at her and she didn't seem to be older than me if not younger.
"Are you ok?" I asked her, she nodded and stood up towards the zombie, she pulled the knife out from the body cleaning it and slipped it back into her sleeve, I spotted the pack on her back it was big really big enough to fit Francis in I think. "I'm Silvia pleasure to meet you miss" she stuck her hand out and I heard a small hissing noise around her neck and show long darkish snake. "Oh this is Noir since I don't know what its gender, but it's a black mamba" she smiled and cooed at it, as I stared at the deadly snake "Zoey are you there?" an olden voice, Bill came round with the others and looked at Silvia.
I was about to introduce them to Silvia till Francis butted in "Who the hell are you?" Francis shouted and moved closer to me, about to wrap his arm around me, making me slap his arm away as he glared at Silvia, a loud hiss was heard from her and her snake lashes out and bared its fangs at him, tightening its grip on her neck. Francis quickly backed "I hate snakes" he mumbled, hiding behind me as Noir when back to Silvia nuzzling her cheek "Francis you idiot, what don't you hate and don't scare her" bill said. "I'm Silvia pleasure to meet you" I looked at her as she patted the snake on the head, kissing it as well. As we introduced ourselves we invited her to our group.
Silvia's pov
I smiled at the group "yes I would love to join the group; I know this one would be better then the one I saw before" they looked at me confused, as I sighed telling them the story of the girl that I saw getting raped by three other people then killed her after by feeding her to the infected… I didn't consider them as humans anymore and killed them. "I found the woman's body after killing them burying her too… one is not meant to suffer that" they were silence, Bill choked out a cough we looked at him "there is a safe house close here about 3 or 4 miles from here east that where we should head" he pulled out for me to see map and pointed to a crossed area, we all headed out.
Zoey was talking to me "the safe house should close here enough for us to not stop" I nodded and looked outside seeing no infected, walking out with the group having bill leading us, I saw Zoey looking at my katana " I don't use guns" she looked at me confused "Guns, they are too noisy and can get more infections coming, plus I'm more skilled with blades than any other" she nodded to me.
"So where did you learn to use erm... Them?" I chuckled and looked at her " I could as for the same with guns, anyways I trained with wooden swords so I know how to use it" she looked shocked at me, I just smiled in return and continued to walk till we heard a hissing sound from the corner "Hey stop, did you hear that?" " Yea it sounded like a hunter" I had my thumb sliding my sword up ready for a draw and heard another hissing sound, "I think there is more than one" I spoke quietly, I knew we were close to the safe house since bill shown me the map as we neared the corner Francis peered out "Shit there's tank out there and a boomer too" nodding we charged out the guys shooting everything they got at the tank, while I hung a bit back keeping an eye out for anything that would hit the other as I looked a hunter tackled Louis down "get it off me!" his arms were pinned, I quickly ran across and did a quick draw slashing and killing the hunter quickly as the head flew from the body.
helping him up I quickly scanned the area that we were in making sure that there was not anything else that could of attacked us "pipe bomb!" my eyes widened and I dived out the way pulling Louis with me and watched as the bomb hit the boomer and tank killing them both, "come on we got to keep moving" we rushed off when the last hunter jumped out and landed on Zoey, she struggled with it pinned on her I quickly without thinking I tackle it and it dug its claws in my left arm leaving 3 long claw marks on it...then the hunter when limp and fell forward, quickly kicking it away I saw a head shot in the side and Francis holding out his gun, seems like I was struggling with it so much I didn't notice the noise of the gun but I nodded my thanks I placed pressure on my arm hoping it would help the blood from flowing. We spotted the safe house and went into it closing and locking the large steel door. We were too busy resting and checking if everyone was in one piece that we didn't notice the sobbing till it was too late...
