Long Road Ahead

With Megan's tears on Jane's shoulder and it about to rain Jane needed to get back to the Bar to see Jack again but since she was hurt she couldnt go out, she knew this but she wanted to see his face again, she had a worried look on her face when Megan stopped crying and looked up "Are you ok?" as Megan said still teary eyes and Jane started to open her mouth but Griffin came back. "Damn you finally stopped crying?" Griffin said, Megan started to get mad, Griffin was the asshole brother. But Jane turned around to look at Griffin and whatever it was he had a look that she already started to hate. But she grabbed her hoodie and put it on kind of sore but it be a pain in the ass later

When she went outside to cool down Griffin followed, and started to say "I know you have a camp or hideout somewhere, show me where it is" And Jane nodded her head no because he had that funny feeling he'd take it over himself. So she said "no" and before she could go back inside Griffin grabbed her by the neck and pinned her against the wall "You will show me where it is." As Jane was struggiling to breathe she tried a kick in the nuts but was thrown down starting to cough trying to get air. "Dumb whore" Griffin said as he went back inside, he was truly an asshole, eventually Jane started to here footsteps, so she tried getting up and getting inside, locked. "Asshole" she mumered to herself as they came closer and she tried to find a weapon, no luck, and before she knew it 3 zombies came around the corner, noticing her, they charged. Jane punched one hard causing to fall down, not die. She tried to duck but failed and as she thought she'd die the one that came close to biting her got shot through the head. When she sprang up, kicked the other one down another gunshot rang out killing the one down and she looked up to see a figure from the alleyway with a dessert eagle. She walked over having her hands, surrendering and the figure said, "Sweethart, you dont have to do that" he said as he revealed to be a man in a white suit, rings on his fingers, and his hair combed back. She introuduced herself as the figure introduced himself, Nick.

They walked back through the alleyway and they talked. "So Jane, what was your plan?" Nick asked and Jane started to say but heard growling coming from a nearby building and held out his arm. "Stay low" Nick whispered and slowly crept over to a car parked inside a garage and grabbed something from it

Jane crept over to and found out Nick was hotwiring it and she kept wacth, noticing a Crowbar near a workbench and grabbed it as Nick rose and whispered "Get in"

Jane got in and they started it and drove off, as they reached out of the city, she just thought of Jack and shook Nick, "We need to turn back!" "Why?" Nick replied as she unbuckled her seatbelt, Nick pulled over and said "Tell me first"

"I had a boyfriend still alive i cant just leave him!" Jane said before she opened the door and grabbed the crowbar

"You cant go on foot, you'll either die of starvation or die by them" Nick said and made Jane stop, "Look we go to Where CEDA is evacuating people" Nick said and Jane came back and got back in

"But promise me we can go back for him" Jane said. "Promise" Nick replied and they drove off

1 hour later...

Jane woke up to Nick tapping her and she slowly opened her eyes and saw 3 people in trouble, they seemed pretty well armed so they waited a bit before Nick decided to grab the gun

While Jane was observing she heard a scream from one of them, she saw the infected surrond that person and then a loud yell broke out sending Jane and Nick to freeze

It was a big, muscular, zombie who hit a car and it went across the street. Jane got ready but one of the fighters jumped off trying to land on the balcony but landed too far on the railing and fell down to the street, starting to bleed.

"We gotta help them!" Jane shouted

as she reached for the pistol on the dashboard and Nick reached over to stop her, "See there RV behind the building?" Nick pointed to it and Jane instantly replied "We going to Steal it?" She never woulda done it so Nick threatend "You wanna go back into the town or die and get eaten? When you fell asleep i saw the bandages, you'll die with then" as Nick grabbed the crowbar in the back he opened the door and Jane opened her and exited with Nick and crept over to the RV, the building they were basically hugging was right next to the door.

Jane peeked over and saw a metal door push open and a hooded figure came out with a AK-47. He saw Jane and opened fire, Jane ducked behind the wall and when the hooded dude came around the corner Jane shot him in the head

"Ill take this" Nick said as he took the AK from the dead mans hands and the keys in his pocket, unlocked the door and went to the drivers seat. Jane hesitated but when the engine roared to life she rushed in and slammed the door behind her and then they drove off farther from the town, closer to the Evac.

10 minutes later

As Jane tried to look at the dessert eagle Nick had she noticed there was some red near the trigger, she knew it couldnt be... whatever the zombie blood it is she looked up and saw Nick stopping the RV next to an abandoned house. "Cupcake im gonna look in here, i havent seen a zombie near the countryside so Im gonna look." As he reached for the dessert eagle she suddenlt grabbed it back, "Whats the blood near the trigger?" Nick sighed and said, "I had to put someone down since they were bit and about to turn." He looked down and wiped a tear from his eye "Happy now..." "Jane, its Jane and im sorry bout your lost" she interupted him thinking he forgot but he just grabbed it and exited and looked inside the house. She decied to look around for anything in the RV and found a gun manuel and a picture of a man and his wife. 'Maybe it was the People on the roof' she thoughts and Nick came back in with a m14 gun strap around his body and some canned food. "Found this and the poor bastards in there forgot there food." Jane started to think it was wrong robbing the dead but after what she seen, the world may never come back from this.

1 week later...

Its been a week since they been driving and scavenging, Nick was in the back asleep and Jane was driving, they needed to take a detour since there was a big horde near the highway and they were surrounding a ceda truck but they assumed the worst, as they drove for a while Jane stopped near a motel.

She needed to strech her legs so she leaned the AK they had awhile and she leaned it against the RV and streched. Then she grabbed the AK and sat down and started to eat a can of green beans when she heard a gunshot

Jane instantly sprang up and grabbed the AK and looked out the window, it was a shotgun blast from some figure over near the back, she couldnt make out much but there was a zombie there, its been a week or two, she forgot. But if its passed that long and that person was alive, then she needed to help. So she grabbed the AK and ran over to the person and a shot was fired near her directon, she yelled out "Im a freindly!" and then she heard silence, then a loud ass cough "Hurry the hordes coming!" She shouted but before she could stand up the tongue got around her and she had a mere second before she was dragged.

She heard the person shoot the smoker and he ran over to help "Take it easy, its dark outside so you should wait" as he unwrangled her Jane could see he was tall, had dark skin, and he had a stubble and she stood up, "C'mon this way" as they walked over to the RV and went in.

"Coach, thats what people call me" the man said and she replied "Jane, thanks for that" she smiled and went to wake up Nick, "Thats a nice name." Coach said

"Hey Nick, wake up" as Jane shook him and he groaned, Nick rubbed his eyes and said "It hasnt been an hour has it?" "No, i found a freindly." Nick then rose and looked and then said "Can we trust you?" then Coach said "Yes."

As they all talked figuring out the next plan of action, Nick and Jane was still set on going but then Coach spoke out "My group, we were heading there when a horde of zombies came, CEDA saved us but since my leg injury they thought they couldnt keep us so they kicked us out, After that we decided to head up North again. But then that Tank seperated us, ive been on my own for a few days now and its nice to come across you folks."

Jane kinda lost hope, but she still wanted to get back to Jack. "Coach, where were you all seperated at?" Nick suddenly asked. Jane knew Nick had some intention but she would ask later, "Near New Orleans" he said.

"Looks like we know where were going" Nick said as he walked over to the driver seat and Jane tried to stop him, "Nick, if you wanna go rescuing his group, its gonna be a b-" Nick pushed Jane down as she landed with a "oof-" on her side "Mister we could be putting our lifes at risk, i wouldnt like to admit it but there either somewhere else or dead." Coach said as he walked over and put a hand on his shoulder, "If you want people we go to more fortified places like a bunker or some shit."

"Fine, you win" Nick said and then got up to get a gun. "We fortify this place"
