I do not own Z Naiton. Or any of the charcters. Appart from my OC.
This is a 10k/OC story and my first ever fanfiction
Looking around at the ruined houses, I picture what the people who lived there would have been like before the outbreak. Letting out a sigh, I walk on, the sun slowly setting behind me. It was getting too dark to carry on walking any further so I decide to look around for a safe place to sleep. I walk for about half an hour before I come across a large tree, the branches twisted an twined around themselves making it the perfect tree to climb into. I quickly take off my backpack and fish about in it for some rope, once I found it I put on my pack and descended up the tree.
I was awoken by gun shots in the distance, Zombies were fine, but humans, you can't trust them, not even the ones you think are nice. I jump out of the tree and run towards the sound of the gun fire, hoping to watch from a distance. Turning a corner and ducking behind a large bin I watch a small group of people packing backs as a young man in a truck shoots at Z's that get too close to the group. There was a growl from behind me and before I get the chance to pull out my knife a bullet flys past my head and into the Zombie behind me. I turn only to lock eyes with the young man as the rest of the group turns to see me, "Shit" I mutter as I take off in the other direction, back towards the highway.
My short blond hair falls in my eyes as I run and I struggle seeing where I'm going. After about 5 minutes of running I stop and look behind me, nothing, they weren't following me. I take out a mirror from my pack and look at myself, my light blue eyes look dull and the dark rings around them made me look as if I hadn't slept for over a month. My face was dirty and dry, and not eating more than 4 times a week has made me skinny beyond belief. I sigh, no wonder my last group left me, who would want me in there group.
I walk for a little longer before I hear the sound of a car driving towards me from behind. I freeze up, no knowing what to do. I reach from my bow but before I manage to grab it a large black truck pulls up beside me. "Hey kid!" A old man with white hair and a funny beard shouts to me.
I look up to see him smiling at me. There were a few more people in the truck, all of then I recognised from earlier. In the bed of the truck was the young man who saved me from that Zee, next to him a slightly older man with a red headed woman who was lent up against him and were watching me intently. In the truck was a scruffy looking man who was paying me no mind, a girl in her mid 20s who was watching me whilst trying to stop the scruffy looking man from stealing what looked like a Twinkie from her at the same time. In the front was a dark skinned woman who was shouting at the scruffy man in the back a well as trying to watch me. And then there was the man with the funny beard. He coughed and I realised he was waiting for a reply. "Hello.." I mutter quietly and he looks at the black women and then back to me.
"You look a little young to be out here on you own, want to tag along?" He asks. I look at him, confused. He was just asking me to join the group, no questions asked. I knew I shouldn't, but I really did need a group, surviving on your own was hard.
I look up and him and nod, muttering a soft "Thankyou" and jumped into the bed of the truck next to the young man who saved me.
This was going to be an interesting ride...
Thankyou for reading I will post the next chapter soon :3
