Suddenly, the RV convoy ran out of gas and all RV's and cars came to a stop.
'Damn, I think we're out of gas.' Earl said.
'Do we have any jerry cans or something?' Deuce asked.
'I think so.' Earl said. 'Let's get out to check.'
The group then proceeded to get out of the RV to check the trunk for jerry cans. Toby saw one.
'There's at least one over there.' Toby said. He proceeded to grab it, but it turned out to be empty.
'Aw, man. It's empty.' Toby groaned.
'Why the hell would you keep an empty jerry can in here?' Deuce asked.
'Whoops, I think we already used it.' Earl said. Deuce facepalmed.
'Great, we're out of gas…Let's gather as many supplies as possible and continue on foot.' Deuce suggested. Everyone nodded. Deuce went back in the RV to grab his gun. The rest of the Rogers family grabbed some guns as well as food and drinks. The Rogers family as well as Deuce and his group then walked down the highway. Suddenly, they saw a few walkers feasting on dead bodies.
'Keep quiet…' Eric whispered. 'I heard they get attracted to sound…' He explained. He then gestured to the hills.'This way…' Eric whispered. Everyone nodded and they quietly snuck into the hills. Suddenly, the group heard shooting and they looked in the direction the shooting came from. A few men started firing at the walkers.
'What the fuck are they doing?!' Eric quietly growled.
'They're wasting bullets and attracting more walkers, it seems…' Deuce said.
'Well, I don't like this one bit! I'm going to deal with this!' Eric said as he ran over to the group of men, with Deuce following him. Eric stabbed one of the men with a knife.
'What are you doing?!' One of the men asked.
'Preventing you idiots from attracting more walkers!' Eric angrily shouted. The men saw the Rogers family and started running over to them.
'Don't you dare try and kill those guys!' Deuce said as he tackled one of the men and beat him to death with the handgrip of his gun. One of the men shot Earl and Eric's dad and put him down with a knife.
'Dad, no!' Earl shouted as he grabbed the man and shot him death with a pistol. 'Quick, into the woods! We'll come after you!' Earl shouted at the rest of the group, who ran into the woods. Earl, Eric and Deuce then killed the remaining members of the group. They then fled as the walkers came after them. They soon caught up with the rest of the family.
'Are they dead…?' Toby asked.
'Yes…And we managed to flee from the walkers…' Deuce said, panting.
'I can't believe those jerks killed grandpa…' Ciara said, crying.
Earl walked over to Ciara to hug her. 'It's fine, Ciara…Grandpa is alright now…He doesn't have to suffer in this dismal world anymore…' He said, with a hint of anger in his voice.
Toby then walked over to his mother. 'M-Mom, can I ask you something?' He asked.
'What is it, Toby?' Pacifica asked.
'Could Mr. Deuce teach me how to shoot?' Toby asked quietly.
'What?! Why?!' Pacifica asked.
'Ciara's dad is teaching her how to shoot too, because she needs to be able to defend herself…' Toby said.
Deuce nodded. 'I agree with Toby.' He said. 'He needs to be able to defend himself in case he gets attacked by walkers.'
Pacifica sighed in defeat. 'Okay then…You can do it…' She said.
'Thanks, mom!' Toby said.
'We gotta look for a place to rest our heads, because if we don't find a place before it's dark, we'll probably become walker food.' Eric said.
'Yes, let's go.' Earl said. He gestured and the group followed him. They walked through the woods, looking for a residence. While they were walking, Eric asked Deuce something.
'Say, why are you wearing your military uniform anyway? Didn't you have anything else to wear?' Eric asked Deuce.
'I was on my way to the anniversary of my military department when our helicopter crashed, and when I woke up, the outbreak had begun. That's why I'm wearing my military uniform.' Deuce said.
'Ah, I see.' Eric said. 'Will you change clothes when you get the chance?' He asked Deuce.
'Maybe. My clothes aren't too dirty at the moment, so I'll keep wearing this until I want to wear something else and I happen to find some clothes.' Deuce responded. Eric nodded as the group continued to walk through the woods. They then found a group of cabins in the woods.
'Looks like we found some place.' Earl said. 'Let's check if the cabins are empty.'
Earl, Eric and Deuce then went in with their weapons. They checked every cabin and found nothing.
'It's safe.' Earl said.
Everyone then picked a cabin to sleep in. The next morning, once everyone was awake, they continued trekking through the woods. Eventually, after walking for a long time, they came out of the woods and ended up at a road where a lot of rotting corpses were lying.
'Looks like a lot of victims were here.' Toby remarked.
'Yes…I don't like it one bit...' Pacifica said, a bit worried.
'Look, there's a lone walker over there!' Deuce said as he pointed at a walker coming at them from the left.
'Should we kill it…?' Toby asked Deuce.
'It's a bit risky. If we fire at that walker, we could attract lots of them. Walkers from at least 5 miles away can hear a gunshot.' Eric said.
'How do you know so much about those walkers in so little time?' Deuce asked Eric.
'Ever since the outbreak, not too long ago, I've been studying the walkers' behavior. It's the best way of surviving out here.' Eric answered.
'In that case, we should just let that walker be.' Deuce said.
'Maybe not, because it's coming at us!' Pacifica said, frightened.
'Earl, gimme a gun!' Deuce said. Earl handed Deuce a pistol, who in turn gave it to Toby.
'Okay, Toby, you gotta aim for the head. That's the key to killing them.' Deuce explained to Toby. Toby nodded, got in position, aimed the gun at the walker's head and fired. The walker dropped dead to the ground.
'Good job, Toby. Keep the pistol with you. You might need it.' Earl said. Toby nodded.
'Let's hope we don't run into any more walkers because of that gunshot.' Earl said.
'We'll just wait and see, Eric.' Earl said.
'So, which way should we go next?' Earl asked Deuce.
'Do I have to take a lead? Okay…We'll go…left.' Deuce said. The group nodded and they walked left.
