Chapter 10

Sonny's POV

''Chad!'' I screamed. I ran forward into his awaiting arms. We hugged untill i finally let go. ''Sonny...i thought you were dead!..Or one of those things..'' He shouted. He was grinning. Grady was stood next to me. ''Good to see you'' Chad said to Grady. Grady smiled. ''You too'' He said. ''Where are the others?'' I said to Chad. He smiled. ''Tawni and Zora are out looking for food and supplies and Nico...he went with them'' Chad said. Grady breathed out a sigh of relief. ''Oh im so happy i found you!'' Chad shouted grinning at me. ''Have you found your mom...She was looking for you'' He added. then i frowned. Tears sprang to my eyes. ''Whats wrong?'' Chad said. He looked concerned, ''Nothing..its well...She's dead...She's one of them'' I stutterd. ''Sonny...Im so sorry'' He said hugging me tight. Then my heart sank once more. ''Hope!'' I blurted. Grady stopped grinning. ''Sonny...we left her in the van!'' He yelled. I let go of Chad. ''I..i need to go and get her!'' I shouted. Chad followed me. He looked confused. ''Sonny?...Who's Hope?'' He questioned folding his arms. I stumbled over to the door. He ran after me. ''Sonny!...Its not safe out there!'' He shouted. ''Litsen...When i had nobody...I thought you were all dead,,,,I was alone...I had Hope..He gave me hope you were still alive...Now i need to go and get him!'' I shouted. Chad nodded. ''Okay...Is Hope a Cat or a dog...or a bird..or.. ''A dog'' I mutterd. He nodded again.

''Grady...Keep look out'' Chad said. ''Ill come with you'' He murmerd. I nodded. ''Okay'' I said. Me and Chad made our way back the way we came. Up the steps and down the ladder. I jumped off the ladder followed by Chad. I looked around. My heart went still. The van had gone. ''No'' I whisperd. ''Sonny...Its okay'' Chad murmerd. ''This way!'' I heard a voice shout. ''Tawni?'' I whisperd. Three teenagers skidded to a stop infront of us. Tawni,Nico and Zora. Zora was holding Hope in her arms. All three of them looked like they had seen a ghost. Tawni's mouth was hanging open. Nico and Zora looked like they were going to faint. ''Ch...Chad...I..Sonny...How come she's different from the others?'' Tawni managed to choke out. Then i realised why they looked so scared of me. They thought i was a zombie. I must be in a right state. Well they were in a state too. Their clothes were torn and bloodstained. Chad dident look much better.

''Get...Get away from her'' Nico said. I stepped forward. ''Guys...it me..Sonny im not dead'' I reassured them. They relaxed. Then they ran up to me and hugged me tight. ''I thought you were dead'' Tawni sobbed. ''Where were you?'' Zora questioned. I sighed. ''Ill tell you later'' I murmerd. ''Err...We better go'' Nico mutterd. We turned round to see more zombies. ''Oh crap..'' I mutterd.

''Run!'' Chad shouted.
