Laura's survival

i have been running away from these freaks for weeks and doing anything i could to survive and i built my own crossbow from pieces of scrap i found and by now you are probably wondering who i am and how i got into this mess in the first place well allow me to explain so sit back grab whatever it is you need and settle in as i explain because my name is Laura and this is my story.

Laura was hiding behind a parked car and peeked through the window as she watched some zombies eat their latest meal of another unfortunate survivor when suddenly she heard shots being fired not to far from her and zombies started shambling off in the direction of the gun shots and Laura carefully sneaked around the car she was leaning against before she dashed for another car just across from her and slid behind it and steadily aimed her crossbow she made from pieces of scrap she found lying around.

Just then a truck pulled up and three men in what looked like swat uniforms got out and killed a few zombies that came towards them before Laura then quickly turned around and fired her crossbow at a zombie that shambled up behind her and blood splattered everywhere as the bolt pierced the zombies skull and fell to the ground lifeless and Laura wiped some of the blood from her face and just finished reloading her crossbow when another zombie grabbed her from the side and pinned her to the floor and Laura thought she was done for and closed her eyes waiting for her impending death but opened them again when she heard one of the men shout "move your head out of the way!"

And Laura did as she was told and tilted her head to one side as one of the men with jet black hair and matching colour beard jumped off one of the cars and curb stomped the zombies head into the ground next to Laura crushing its skull killing it instantly. Bits of blood and brain splattered over Laura before the man then helped her to her feet and said "i'm seth rollins, over there are my brothers dean ambrose and roman reigns" and Laura picked up her crossbow and took a deep breath before she finally said "t-thank you for saving my life, i-if you hadn't then i..." she cut herself off as tears flowed from her eyes and seth just placed a arm around the girl to try to comfort her as he said "it's ok, me, dean and roman will protect you as the shield, do you have a name?"

Laura then wiped some tears from her eyes as she replied "y-yeah, my name is Laura...Laura redfield" and seth picked up Laura's bag over his shoulder as he replied "well, it's good to meet you Laura, you can stay with us as we have enough food and water to go around" before both seth and Laura walked towards dean and roman who were leaning by the truck before dean was the first to speak up when he said "hey, who's this cute girl you picked up seth?" to which seth chucked Laura's bag in the back of the truck before he looked at dean and replied "c'mon man, ease up a little she is scared and alone and her name is Laura redfield, but yeah i will agree with you that she is kinda cute"

Before long seth and roman hopped in the front of the truck while dean helped Laura climb into the back of the truck before joining her and sat opposite to her as roman put the truck in reverse before slowly moving the truck forward again as they continued down the road towards the next town before dean then tossed a chocolate bar to Laura as he said "here, you must be hungry" and Laura caught the bar in her hands as she replied "thanks, yeah i'm starving" dean then picked up Laura's crossbow and examined it a bit as he sat there and said "impressive weapon you got here kid" and Laura faintly smiled as she replied "thanks, i built her myself out of scraps i found lying around"

Dean smiled as he continued to examine the crossbow some more before he said "i think i can help improve the rate of fire and give you something to aim down too" and Laura sat there and smiled a little as she helped dean take apart her crossbow before dean slid the current mechanism she was using off the rails before sliding on a better firing mechanism that would help her fire her crossbow faster and then he attached some iron sights to the front of the crossbow to help Laura aim more precisely before he tightened her crossbow back together for her before seth turned to face her as he said "so Laura, how long have you been surviving on your own"

Laura smiled slightly at seth as she replied "well, before you guys showed up i had been surviving on my own for a little over two months now just doing whatever i could to survive and taking whatever supplies i could find" roman then tilted his head back as he said while still looking at the road "well, like what seth said we will protect you and keep you safe, and we'll be reaching the next to shortly just about a couple more miles" to which Laura replied as she had a death grip on her crossbow "ok, and thanks again you guys for saving my life, if there is anything i could do to repay the favour then please tell me"

They soon arrived in the next town and as roman stopped the truck at a nearby gas station to refuel a tanned latina girl with purple hair came rushing out to greet them as she gave roman a hug but then looked slightly confused as she saw they had one more person with them as Laura hopped down from the truck with her bag and dean carefully handed her upgraded crossbow and Laura held the crossbow tightly to her chest and gingerly walked over to roman and the purple haired latina girl just as another girl with black hair in a ponytail to one side came out.

Roman then put his arm around Laura to try to reassure her as he said to her "relax, this is sasha banks and the girl next to her is her best friend bayley, they aren't going to hurt you" and Laura slightly loosened her grip around her crossbow but still held it close to her chest before sasha then said to roman "where did you find this cute girl" but before roman could reply seth answered for him as he said "to tell you the truth sasha we rescued her from being eaten by a zombie while we were out searching for ammo and supplies" and Laura blushed slightly as sasha looked in her direction before she wrapped a arm around her and walked her inside the station as she said "it's ok, you're safe here with us and if anyone be that alive or dead tries to hurt you i'll kick their ass"

That made Laura giggle a little as she walked inside the station and sat down in front of the cash register holding her crossbow close to her chest before bayley went and sat next to her and said "that's a cool weapon did you make it?" and Laura looked at bayley and smiled as she replied "yeah, i did i built this myself with pieces of scrap i found lying around and dean helped me improve the rate of fire on it and added the sights so i can aim precisely and before the shield came along and rescued me from a horrible fate this...this was the closest thing i had to family" tears started to form in her eyes and bayley tried to comfort her as she placed a arm around Laura before she said "that's so horrible, do you know where you're family is now"

Laura then replied "no...no i have no idea where my parents have gone but if i know my parents they probably found a way out by now and plan on coming back for me, but hey i managed to survive for a little over two months on my own and if seth hadn't been there today to risk his life to save mine then i wouldn't even be sitting here talking to you right now" then the tears started as Laura sat next to bayley and cried as bayley tried her best to comfort her by saying "hey it's ok, we're all going to get out of this alive and i promise i will help you find your parents Laura"

Suddenly just then sasha came sprinting back in and tried to catch her breath as she said "the boys have gone to the next town to get some more supplies, but there is a few of those disgusting freaks outside slowly making their way towards us" and upon hearing that Laura sprang into action as she jumped to her feet with her crossbow in hand as she looked at sasha and said "it's ok, it's my turn to protect you guys" and walked out the front door and quickly aimed her crossbow and fired a few bolts each shot landing their mark as they ripped straight through each of the zombies skulls and they continued walking a few more steps before collapsing to the ground lifeless.

Before Laura then collapsed but sasha managed catch her just before she fit the floor and carried her inside and bayley looked a little worried before sasha said "don't worry, the poor girl probably hasn't had any sleep so she passed out from sleep deprivation" before sasha then laid Laura down on one of the makeshift beds and bayley placed the crossbow next to her before grabbing a chair and sitting next to her while roman and the rest of the shield came back.

Dean then grabbed two big duffle bags from the back of the truck which were a little heavy as they were filled with ammo and food and sasha then had a finger on her mouth as she said "sshh, guys while you were gone some zombies came up but Laura took care of them before she passed out from lack of sleep" to which dean then quietly replied "poor kid, she must have drank loads of coffee just to keep herself awake and now its catching up to her but i'm glad she was able to protect you and bayley" before Laura then groaned in her sleep as sasha came and stood next to bayley looking over Laura.

The next morning dean was out the back of the station with Laura practising on some targets he set up and dean was hitting the bulls-eye every time while Laura hit the bulls-eye most of the time and started cursing at herself and dean set his gun down and walked over to Laura before he said "hey it's ok you'll get better and soon you will hit the bulls-eye just like i do every time" briefly pausing to take a deep breath before he continued "unless there is something else on your mind that you want to talk about" and Laura looked at dean and took a deep breath before she replied "no, it's not the fact i'm not getting perfect shots every time like you dean, it's...it's i don't know it's hard to describe"

Dean sat there for a minute with a surprised look on his face before he replied "oh, well is it because you have a crush on someone here?" and Laura looked at dean with a little smile on her face as she replied "y-yeah, you could say that, but the trouble is i have never really considered myself to be into women i always thought i may be bi-sexual but i never really explored it as i have always been drawn to men more than women" and dean took a moment to process what he just heard before he finally replied "well, do you want to at least tell me who you have a crush on Laura, don't worry this will be just between us until you are ready to tell the others"

Laura then smiled at dean a little more before she took a deep breath as she replied "ok, i know this is probably going to sound crazy but i think i might be crushing on sasha" to which dean spat his mouthful of beer out as he replied "sasha? Ok i'm not going to say a word about this to her or anyone, like i said this will just be between us for now" before he then went inside while Laura remained outside as she started pacing back and forth whilst cursing to herself "what the fuck is wrong with me? Why can't i just walk up to her and tell her?" before bayley then walked outside after hearing her curse at herself for several minutes.

Bayley then stood there before she said "hey, you ok? Sorry i heard you cursing from inside" and Laura stopped in her tracks and just sat by the wall with her head in her hands before she finally looked at bayley who was now sitting next to her and replied "y-yeah i'm fine bayley, i'm just conflicted in my emotions about something or someone you could say" and bayley smiled at Laura as she replied "ok who? And does anyone else know yet" and Laura looked back at bayley and took a deep breath before she replied "i-i think i might be crushing on sasha, and only dean knows about this and he isn't going to tell the rest of you until i felt ready"

Then bayley stood up and pulled Laura to her feet and looked at her face to face before she replied "don't worry, your secret is safe with me Laura, but if you would like my advice then i think you should tell sasha how you feel and just see what happens" and Laura just stood there looking at bayley and tried to fake a smile as she replied "ok, you're right bayley thank you" just then sasha came out to join them as she said "see where what happens?" and bayley just giggled a little before she looked at Laura and said "i think i'll leave you guys alone for a bit" before walking back inside to join dean and the others so then it was just sasha and Laura outside standing apart from each other looking at each other in silence before Laura was first to break the silence.

Laura stood there and took a deep breath before she said "sasha, there is something i want to tell you, but i'm not sure how you might react" and sasha walked a little closer to Laura before replying "Laura if you have something to tell me then just say it, i won't judge" and Laura's heart started beating faster but she decided to take another deep breath before she replied "ok here goes, sasha i think i might be in love with you but i don't know if you feel the same about me or if you're comfortable with me being bi-sexual" and Laura waited for sasha to respond but also dreaded sasha punching her and laughing at her but none of those things happened as sasha didn't say a word as she just walked closer to Laura until they were inches apart from each other before then pressing her lips against Laura's and her hands snaked their way around Laura's body from her hips to her ass as sasha gave it a gentle squeeze with both hands before she broke the kiss and said "does that answer your question Laura?"

And Laura just stood there stunned at what just happened before she finally replied "wow, i definitely was not expecting that but yeah that did answer my question sasha and i guess this means we're dating now right?" to which sasha gave Laura another kiss on her cheek and simply smiled as she replied "it sure does babe"
