"I still hear the screams, the chaos, and panic in the people's faces running past me. Something told me to run with them, but I needed to see, I had to see what it was." James clears his throat to hide the tears in his eyes and continues on "It was the first of the out.. Shh!" interrupted we ran quickly to a nearby atm and took cover James's eyes were still filled with held back tears. I'm not sure what James had heard or what he was going on about but he didn't seem like the man I knew weeks ago as we crouched down by this atm. This worry I felt maybe made my instincts and sense of awareness drop but only after looking away from James' dirt stained face did I see the walkers in a broken window. "James what do we do?" I whispered and I saw the tears disappear from his eyes as he stood up and shouted "RUN!" without thinking I did and headed back the route we came before James began his story. I was a good distance now not far from where we came from and I turned back expecting to see James but he wasn't there my mind began to race of the horrible things that may have happened and I found myself winded as I began to break down and cry. I turned around and as I was catching my breathe to shout his name I heard a crashing come from the alley way beside me that took my breath away and froze me in fear. "I've never been this close to walkers and have never been on foot around them it was only a few streets away from our truck maybe I could reach it" I thought to myself. My fear left my body long enough to turn my head slowly my eyes crept to the alley way to feel an overwhelming joy "JAMES" I cried he made it. I ran towards him and suddenly felt that sinking feeling in my stomach that I've come far too familiar with since the outbreak It was a heard of them forty maybe fifty tops growling, moaning, reaching their skin ripped arms out and mouths open ready to devour us. We ran back and turned in the direction of the truck running faster then I have even ran before I could feel my tears running down my face drying on my skin adding to the collection of build up that covered my body. I could see James starting to pass me as he yelled "I will be in the truck now c'mon!" Words of encouragement or a warning that I may just be left behind if I don't speed up either way I didn't want to find out or ask as James began to take a huge lead in this race for our lives. I made it to the truck that sat James already in gear and pedal to the floor as I sat down in the front seat I turned back to see the walkers had began to disappear as we hauled ass out of there and I sighed a breathe of relief. "I worked there, that bank." I turned to James with a confused look on my face as he continued his story looking into the road ahead "I heard the crash of the bus and cars slamming on their breaks" he paused and looked at me. I still had the face of confusion "Panic broke out, four of them walkers eating people in the middle of the road" his eyes started to water as he looked back at the road. I rushed back inside and told everyone to stay inside and go in the safe if it gets bad, Then I ran out the door again" His sobbing began to increase as I tried to comfort him "James it's alright no one knew what to do at first" he cut me off with a disturbed look in his eyes and tears running down his face. "I ran by the bank when running from those DAMN WALKERS the safe was shut closed, I have the only key to open it, it doesn't open from the inside... I killed whoever is inside". I didn't know what to say and I could think of anyway to comfort him I just turned away we continued the drive in silence.
