Survivors Journal Day No.3

It turns out that Civet we met while scavenging was on the run from a camp leader Jack Savage, the only other rabbit I meet in this city and he turns out to be a psyco.

When he found out Cecelia was with us he wasn't to pleased about it and demanded retribution, unfortunately nick giving Celia wasn't enough. He also wanted the fox who harboured her.

After being held captive at Jacks camp we managed to escape with the help of Cecelia, and a new member to our group Skye who used to work for Jack. We then "Borrowed" Some supplies from his people, not like they'd need it anymore. who ever is left in that camp is pretty screwed

After we escaped we found ourselves on the outskirts of the big city, It was time to get our bearings and find a safe place being out in the open just isn't safe, Nick's camp stationed in Downtown is the best shot we have.

We've been walking through fields and derelict areas for hours, trying to find Nick's camp of New-topia fingers crossed its still there, we could all use some rest in a friendly area.


Judy closed and placed the journal into her backpack as she and the other survivors pressed on into the silent city.

Judy, was still shaken up over the gunfight and seeing Cecelia stabbing Jack Savage in the chest, it was something that was etched into her mind forever.

"Hey, you're not still mad at me, Right?" Celia turned to ask Judy, noticing her anxious body language as they continued on down the roads.

"I'm not mad at you, just disappointed, did you really have to kill Jack we couldn't have just left him?" Judy responded.

"He would've just came back to attack us if he wasn't put down for good." Celia explained. "It's the same reason we kill Zombies."

"Maybe, but it just doesn't feel like the same thing." Judy replied.

"It never should." Celia gazed upon the knife still stained with Jack's blood. "I thought it's what I wanted, I enjoyed getting my revenge up until the knife slid out of him and his blood ran down my face, it's not an easy thing to do."

As Nick rounded the corner that lead to his camp, what he saw made his heart sink, a crowd of zombies crowded the way leading into New-topia.

A cold hand grabbed nicks shoulder, he looked up to see a New-topia guard, now a zombie leaning in to bite his face. Nick sprung into action, grabbed the zombie by the neck, threw it to the ground and stomped it's head in, which attracted the attention of the other Wandering zombies.

"Looks like he has friends here." Judy said as the zombies sights were set on the survivors.

"I got one." Celia said, holding her knife by the blade and threw it directly into the eye of a cat zombie, She ran and recovered the knife from the cats skull as her and the rest of the team ran toward the crowd of zombies.

Nick knew gunfire would only draw more undead, he improvised and took his rifle by the barrel and cracked the head of another fox zombie open.

Celia ran and sliced the tendon on the back of a zombies leg making it fall to the ground, where Nick finished it off with a hard swing to the head from his rifle.

Skye found herself being cornered by three undead, in a split second decision, she opened fire with her assault rifle she got off one of Jack's guards.

*Bang bang bang* The bullets struck each zombies brains, killing them instantly.

"Dammit Skye, every lurker for miles probably heard those shots!" Nick yelled as he finished another Zombie. "Might as well go loud now."

Before Nick could get to the next zombie a hail of gunfire erupted and all the zombies were filled with holes.

Nick turned to the source, he saw two shadows in front of the open New-topia gates, one canine slightly bigger than Nick and one feline.

"Nick, come on!" One of the silhouettes shouted shooting a surviving zombie. Nick recognized the voice as his second in command.

They all inside the gates of what was once New-topia, Nick and the two other New-topia members shut the gates.

"Nick, I can't believe you're alive!" The canine said happy to see Nick.

Inside the gates Nick got to see the full damage of New-topia, rubble and poorly built shanties are all that remained of the once sprawling camp. "What happened here?" Nick asked

"That rabbit came back, killed almost everyone here only me and a few others survived, he left with almost everything we had."

"Before I forget, I found this there too." Nick took the gun from Celia's pocket and gave it to Eli.

"You found it, thanks!" Eli exclaimed taking the gun.

"You don't have to worry about them anymore, we even brought supplies from their camp." Judy and Celia gave their supplies to Nick.

"You brought back more people?" The canine asked as he noticed Judy, Skye, and Celia, he went to greet them, he stepped into the light to reveal dark brown fur, and yellow and black New-topia apparel. "My name's Eli, I'm the camps medic, if you've been shot in the arm, or your leg is about to fall off, I'm the guy to talk to."

"I'm Judy." Judy introduced herself.

"I'm Skye"

"Cecelia."

"Nice to meet you all, come we just started a fire and while they may look unpleasant, the shanties we built aren't bad at all." Eli motioned the group to follow him.

"That's nice of you to offer but we aren't planning on staying long, just until we get our bearings and have enough for a long travel we were thinking of heading south to the burrows." Nick stopped Eli before he got too talkative.

"The burrows?" Eli questioned. "Why would you want to leave us?"

"Look the city isn't safe any more, the zombies And this camp is already compromised, we thought it would be safer to head towards the countryside." Nick explained. "If its safe there we'll move camp to there."

"Well for now you can stay here I'll show you to where you can rest you look like you need it."

The survivors were shown to an area of Make shift shelters made up of rubble, cardboard boxes, and wood planks, each with their own bedding. After all the walking they did the chance to rest their feet was almost too perfect to pass up.

"Y'know guys, I think its going to be fine here." Nick said taking a spot on a small bedding.

"Agreed, but once we get enough supplies we should finally get out of this city." Judy said going for her own shanty.

"I haven't forgotten our plan." Nick reassured Judy. "We'll just take it one day at a time."
