Amelia P.O.V
3 weeks.
3 weeks is the number of days it's been since the outbreak.
Since my fiancé died.
And since I've been on the hunt for my family.
I was camped out in a little shed, my sleeping bag on the floor as I listened to the crickets chirp and the wind rustle.
I let my eyes fall shut, after a few hours of laying there.
Then I heard the subtle sound of groaning in the distance. I cursed as I sprung up, checking to see if I could secure this thing more. I locked the door, using a crowbar and the latch that was there once used for an actual lock.
I sat back down, knowing that I needed to stay calm as the footsteps of the dead started to flood around the shed. I clutched my pistol waiting for a biter to break through the door.
The door rattled as one of them tried to enter the shed, I kept quiet and halted my breath for a few moments, the rattling stopped and I breathed as the footsteps got farther and farther away.
I finally laid back and relaxed a bit more, knowing the biters had passed.
For now.

Howdy y'all!
PLEASE DONT HURT ME
I apologize quickly for me going MIA, but I had to leave. I had to get away from it all.
A lot of shit went down in my personal life and let's just say it left me an emotional wreck. I didn't want to deal with the reviews of 'hey update' 'update please' because they made me feel guilty knowing I had abandoned this story.
I appreciate every review you guys sent it.
So, done with this emotional shit.
I have changed the story up a bit, to make it more interesting.
The whole of it is still the same though, eventually it'll start following the story plot closely, Amelia is still Carol's younger sister, etc, etc.
Fingers crossed that my time away also made me a better writer!
And yes. I got rid of the damn dog. I'm sorry, but in the original story I planned on killing the poor thing off and couldn't bring myself to do it.
If you have any questions about the original story that was left unanswered throw me a review and I'll answer you in an authors note.
