Chip Oliver
I woke up in a hotel room and found about 300 dollars in cash in a envelope but nothing else except the close on my back. Then I remember what happened in a flash and I fall to the floor. "Tabitha! She got away I saw her, she can tell me what happened." I run out of the hotel not really paying attention to anything else then I actually saw her walking into a store. "That was oddly convenient and easy." I run in and turning her around and she looks shocked. "Chip?" "What the hell happened?" I ask but then she looks around and I realize we were drawing attention so we hid in the corner of one of the departments and she whispers. "I don't know the zombies came, one nearly ate me, you saved me, you ran and I got keys to the new truck those guys bought and got the hell out of there." "I was running from one not you." "…Oh… anyway I don't have a lot of cash so we're going to have to steal some stuff unless you want to look like that." I remember the envelope and pull it out. "What the hell?" She looked more like I had pulled out a frog then cash we actually needed. "Woke up in a hotel room with this." "Okay then guess we aren't shop lifting but you need to get durable stuff like leather and steel toed boots otherwise we may die." "Why we got away?" "Do you really think it's gonna stop now? Way I see it, it's all down hill in a shit storm for the next five years then maybe, maybe those things will be dead." "Why five?" "I like to hope they'd stave to re-death." She said as we began looking for durable clothing then she pulled my arm and I saw where we were going and couldn't help but think 'Figures she'd want to do this'.
A few guys were looking at us oddly as she pulled me to the tool area/ garden crap. She grabbed a shovel and a box cutter then looked at me as if to say 'Your turn' so I grabbed a pair of hedge cutters and a woodworker. "That won't last you long in a fight." "So?" I ask then we by the tools and go back to getting clothes.
After we got clothes we got in the truck and she drove away. We had no where to go and no one to see so the question is… what now? But of course the question was short lived. "More then likely if this is the first outbreak there'll be another in less then a year even the best sealed box can be pried open." Unfortunately she was al but to right as a zombie jumped onto the hood of the truck as the office building it jumped out of suddenly caught fire. "See." She pulled out her shovel stabbed it's head without getting out of the car simply leaning out the window then she drove into one that was going after a little girl. "Run!" Her mother grabbed her and the cops came so Tabitha pulled back . "Let's get the hell out of here." "How is that heroic?" "We aren't hero's lets go you moron I don't want to be one of those things!" She rolled her eyes but she drove off like I wanted. We would live to se another day but the zombies could only be killed with spine and head shots we later found out and well those cops and civilians didn't know back then.
Welcome to the end of the world.
