And here we have our first character, Kay, Created by: ohnomyshoee,
Dad turned the T.V up as loud as it could go, I could hear Mum raiding the Kitchen for food.
"And in the latest news report the casualties of the Washington crisis are approximately 7,000. Further information will be released shortly."
I blocked the rest out, I didn't want to hear it.
"Kay, go get some clothes from your room! We are leaving!" Dad told me, I nodded and ran upstairs to my room.
I packed some t-shirts and jeans, jackets, and a few photos of me and my friends, I also grabbed my phone recharger even though it would be pointless, the power would not last for much longer, but it gave me reassurance. I zipped up my bag and took one last look at my room and sighed, We have lived here ever since I was born, and I would really miss this place.
"Kay! Hurry up, we have to go!" Mums voice called from downstairs, I looked at the time on my phone, 2:04 am. I ran downstairs and put my bag in the hallway.
"New quarantine camps have been set up outside of all major cities" The T.V announced, It continued talking about things like, hope, that we should not worry, that an antidote is being made.
But really? They have no idea what this is, I have only seen one Walker so far and I can already tell that those things cannot be cured, they are dead, and you can't bring the dead back to life...
"Kay! Help me in here!" Mum called for me, I looked away from the T.V and walked into the kitchen to help Mum, we packed enough for to last us a few months but lets just hope they have food at these Quarantine Camps...
Dad came in not too long after that, carrying Guns and other Weapons.
"Where did you get those?" I asked him, he smirked.
"I was a hunter before you came along." He smiled.
I rolled my eyes, Mum and Dad always told me stories about how they used to have such an adventures life before I was born.
A loud noise shook the house and I screamed, Mum hugged me to her and we waited for it to end.
"What was that?" Mum whispered, Dad took a gun.
"I'll go find out! I have my phone so call me if something happens!" Dad called over his shoulder already running out the front door.
"Mum..." I started but she cut me off.
"He will be fine Kay... Just wait for him to come back and we will go..." She reassured, and I nodded.
About an hour passed and no news on Dad. Mum had called his phone about fifty times but he didn't pick up.
"Im going to go and look for him..." Mum decided.
"No! Please! I don't want to go out there!" I cried. Mum shook her head.
"You won't, Im going alone, please just stay in the house and watch your phone incase I call you! If someone tries to get in or Attack you, hide. Ill be back in a few minutes!" She said kissing my head, but I had a very sick feeling in my stomach.
"Mum..." I tried to call for her but I heard the door slam. I sunk back against the wall.
I sat with my back against the wall, I flinched at every gunshot, every explosion. I checked the time again, 4:00 am. I sighed and leant back again the wall, until I heard a banging sound, I stood up and grabbed a knife from the counter in the Kitchen my hand was shaking in fear but I ignored it.
I walked around the house until I heard the source of the groan, someone was at the back door banging on it, I slowly opened it thinking it was either Mum and Dad or a Neighbour.
A Walker fell on me and I started to scream for help, my knife had flown across the floor and was now just slightly away from me, If I could get my other hand free I could grab it. It was chomping at me trying to bite me, I tried to push it away with one hand, as my other one had been trapped underneath it, While struggling to get free, It stumbled a little to the side, letting my other hand free, I reached for the knife and finally grabbed it, I stabbed the Walker in the head, it fell dead on me, I stood up and continued to stab it repeatedly to make sure it was dead.
I got up and wiped the blood off of my hands and face, then returned to the wall I was leaning against before, I checked the time again, 4:18 am. Mum and Dad will be home soon and then we can leave and find somewhere safe to stay. I kept that idea in my head while I fell asleep against the wall.
I woke up and saw the sun shining in through the window, I stood up and walked around.
"Mum?.. Dad?.." I called out for them, I only heard silence in return, I checked the time once more, 8:34 am. Thats when I really started to freak out...
"Mum!? Dad!?" I screamed through the house. I started crying, tears streaming down my face, I was only thirteen! This could not be happening.
I heard groans and footsteps echoing through the house, I turned a corner and came face to face with possibly twenty Walkers, all streaming through the back door. I turned and ran, they where close on my trail. I shut the hall door behind me, I knew it wouldn't last for long but it would have to do.
I grabbed my bag and the bag filled with food and zipped my jacket on, maybe Mum and Dad are at the quarantine camp we where going to? Its my best option... I kicked the front door open and started running down the street, tears blurring my vision.
