Introduction:

The fog was thick. It was light enough to be morning, but the sun refused to shine. I stared out the barred window of the metal door. It looked clear but I feared what lurked the streets.

It is another day, another beginning, another safe house. It's all the same.

It's another day of wondering whether or not I'll survive today. Will we all survive? I sure hope so.

A distant screech filled the air. I shivered as I stared out, praying it wasn't heading toward us.

"Couldn't sleep?" Francis asked.

"It's morning. It's when I wake. I don't have the ability to sleep in as you do." I smiled at him.

He chuckled at my words.

"How could you anyways with this entire racket? It haunts me." I spoke as I stared out the door.

"You just worry too much." He replied.

"How can you not?" I questioned.

"We're safe in here." He answered.

"But for how long?" I looked up at him.

I stood gazing into his eyes.

"You know we'll protect you Zoey. We all protect each other." Francis reassured.

I nodded unable to speak. His words were re-assuring but I couldn't help but freak on the inside.

"Is it time to head out?" I asked.

"Yes. We'll be okay. Trust me." He said when he saw my nervous look.

I turned to him. "I do."

He pulled me into a hug and I clinged onto him. He pulled away slowly and smiled slightly at me and nodded.

I looked out the door and sighed.

Welcome to the living nightmare.
