Each of us got a guard. We were followed very closely and had to give a brief story of our lives. We all lied, it was fun creating something different. We all kept our eyes open for Sue. For two weeks none of us found her. The guards were finally relieved of their duties of watching us.
It was a warm day, slightly cloudy though. I was walking the streets of this town and came across her. Sue Emerson. She had become older now, but still had hair red hair. I wasn't sure how to react to her. I just basically followed her around.
When she was in the crowded street, I decided to let myself be known. I stood out, where she could see me. The crowds moved enough for her to spot me. She stared in shock. She began walking towards me, but the crowds came by again. I moved out of sight and hide once again. I followed her to her apartment.
I went back into town and gathered everyone, except for Susan my daughter. I led them to her new home. We knocked on the door, she opened and looked into my eyes.
"Sue,"I said,"how long has it been since I've seen you?"
Sue tried to close the door on me, but I forced her back. The others walked inside and I closed the door behind us. I walked around to look at the girl who thought it would be funny to betray me.
"You seem to have been doing well,"Ellen said.
"That I have. A lot better than you all I bet."
"Why did you do it?" I asked."Why did you betray us?"
Sue paused for a second. She was thinking about how to respond. "I just went along with my dad's idea. I decided to just go ahead with it."
"Well that was your biggest mistake," I replied.
The others began circling around her, closing in. I watched them attack her. They ripped her apart. Biting and pulling apart her flesh. Sue tried to scream, but it was muffled by her sister, Denise. I watched them eat every part of her.
After a while Jacob walked over to me smiling. He held out a piece of intestine. I grabbed a hold of it and gave him a thank you kiss.
"Well, we've done it. We have killed off the last of them,"Jacob said in a low voice.
"That we have. Now we can start a brand new life."
I began eating my snack. We stayed until they had completely devoured her body.We all headed back out into the town. No one was awake, the town seemed dead. We each went off in our direction for a short time. We decided to met up again in a couple of hours and try to escape from here.
I saw a girl walking towards me. She looked to be in her twenties. Her blonde hair fell past her shoulders. She stopped an inch in front of me.
"Can I help you?" I asked.
She only looked at my eyes and smiled. "Your not really one of the living are you?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Well a while back we had a crazy man running telling us about these zombies that could talk. He claimed to have survived an attack on his town. He mentioned a girl who went crazy, and had dark eyes and hair. He said that she knew what she was doing, but didn't care."
"And you believed him?"
"Yes, why shouldn't I? I can tell you're her."
"What makes you think that I am this girl?"
"Your just as he described. Dark hair and eyes. A medium build, and your covered in blood. Plus I can see your open wound on your stomach."
I glanced down to see that the bottom of my shirt was slightly up. I pulled it down quickly. "What is that you want from me?"
"I want to join you."
"What?"
"Please."
"We can't have anymore people involved. I already got to many people involved with the whole thing anyway."
"You're going to need me though,"the girl said.
"Why do you say that? Hm?"
"Because people are out to get you."
"What are you talking about?"
"You think Sue was really that stupid. She may act ignorant but she knows what she's doing. She tricked her father along with everyone else. She was the one who placed the idea into his head, and made sure he stuck with it. Then she abandoned him. Right before you killed her father, there was a helicopter scheduled to take both of them away. But she got there before he did, and said he had died."
"How do you know all this?"
"I was her best friend, and body guard."
"You let her die tonight didn't you?"
The girl nodded. "I made sure you got your chance to kill her. Only now, she has gotten others involved. She told several people that if she dies, that they would have to avenge her death. She wanted to make sure you were more than hurt."
"What do you mean?"
"She wanted to kill your heart."
My heart. I thought to myself. She couldn't kill anyone close to me, they were already dead, except for Susan. I turned and ran. I knew the place where I had left her, it was the place we had called our temporary home. The girl followed close behind me, but I didn't care. I continued to run until I finally came to the house.
I opened the door and rushed into the bedroom. Susan was lying in her bed, sleeping. I breathed a sigh of relief. I turned to the girl who had followed me here.
"They will come after her,"she said."Sue wanted you to suffer. Those were her orders."
