The Living Dead

By: CakuuCakuu


I breath heavily...trying to be as quiet as I can as I tuck myself uncomfortably in a corner. "Shhh! It's okay! Calm...Calm down!" I think to myself. I ran all the way into a convenience store that looked pretty abandoned, until a zombie descended from the shadows...That's why I am in this corner..Pretty much...I kept trying to calm myself down and be quiet as I possibly could be as I waited for the zombie to leave..

I waited...

And waited...

And waited...until...

~SMASH!~

~BANG!~

~CRUNCH!~

"Shhh! Not to loud!"...I hear a voice...a human voice! I climbed out of the disgusting corner I tucked myself into and slowly creeped past the now squashed zombie.

I stood awkwardly in front of the cash register, a few feet away from the group of boys that were standing in the middle of an aisle.

The boys looked about my age and were talking about something,

Boy 1: "You could have been too loud and caused more to come!"

Boy 2: "You don't know that! They would've been here by now, we are probably safe.."

There were 5 boys, they all have weapons..one of them had a gun. He stopped talking to the rest and eventually noticed me

Boy 4: "Hey guys...who the hell is that?"

All 5 boys turned their attention to me. I turned red as I let my backpack sag lower behind me and my hair fall in my face. I looked like a wreck...but hey, what can you do when you're in an apocalypse and near the end of the world?...
