CHAPTER 9: GOING BACK TO THE HOUSE
"I'm going back to my house", I said strongly.
Timmy nodded, "I'm going with you."
Mr. Breedlove began to stop Timmy from moving toward the door, "No, dad! You can't just leave someone behind like that! It's wrong."
My gut tightened. I had done just that, left Laina and ran. But I was doing the right thing, right? Going after her?
Mr. Breedlove looked defeated. "Alright", he said quietly, "We'll go together."
We got weapons ready; anything that was handy in knocking down and bashing out the brains of the undead.
Even using the word undead was making me squeamish.
Armed with a baseball bat we exited toward Mr. Breedlove's car parked in the driveway. We didn't have any trouble.
In minutes we skidded in front of my house. I could barely recognize the neighborhood where I grew up. Everything was deserted and looked destroyed.
I had to tell you my heart had never beat so fast in my life as we walked into my house.
"Where's the closet?", Timmy whispered much too loudly.
"Down the hall…"
All of a sudden I heard a noise from the basement. Was Laina down there?
If you want to check out the noise from the basement go to Chapter 16.
If you want to check out the closet go to Chapter 17.
If you want to run out the house because you're so freaked out go to Chapter 24.
