Chapter Sixteen: The New Plan
Danny, Carter, and Flora stopped as they neared the ocean. They looked around. Sebastian was getting closer, but it seemed he wasn't getting very close to them at all.
"At least the ocean hasn't changed," Flora said.
"Well, we already lost one," Carter said. "Who do you think will die next?"
"Carter!" Flora said.
"We have to find more living people," Danny said. "We'll go through the small turtle swamp, by Cody's house, by the ruined tower of Patrick and Kassey-"
"Ruined?" Carter asked.
"Long story," Danny muttered. "Anyway, we'll make our way to Grant and Samantha's house. Hopefully they're still alive."
"Excuse me?" Flora said. "You encountered their daughter, did you not?"
"Um... yeah," Danny admitted.
"Then isn't that a chance they're dead too?"
"We have to check," Danny said. "Its the only place left, aside from Wally and Chris's place."
"And your farm," Carter cut in. "Not many have checked there. Nor the Mountain Springs, for that case."
"True," Danny said. "Might as well. Come on, lets move."
---
As they made way through the small turtle swamp, Danny saw there was no turtle. Pretty soon they made it to Cody's house. The usual banging noises were dead like the many villagers of Forget Valley.
As they passed the tower ruins, Danny remembered the incident that took Celia's life after the tower had colapsed. He hoped that Patrick and Nina were okay.
Finally, they went across the stone road and fell against Grant and Samantha's house wall.
"Is the door locked?" Flora asked.
Danny jiggled the knob. "Yup."
"They might be alive," Carter said.
"Come on... we have to knock."
Danny slowly knocked on the door.
"Anyone in there?"
There wasn't a response.
"Eh... we should get going..." Flora said, looking around.
Suddenly, there was a brief series of unlocking noises. The door then was kicked open, and shotgun blasts filled the air.
"TAKE SOME OF THIS, ZOMBIE SHIT!"
They saw Grant like they never did before. His face was red, and he was panting heavily.
"Grant? Its us," Danny said.
"L... living humans?" Grant stuttered. "Thank godness! Come in, quickly now."
They stepped inside. Grant locked the door, then bolted it.
"Is Samantha okay?" Carter asked.
"She is fine," Grant said. "She is still mourning the death of our daughter."
"Oh... yes... we saw here," Danny said.
"Mr. Carter, you look wounded," said Grant, noticing the three slashes Carter had gotten on his face back in the Digging Cave.
"Its nothing," Carter said. "It doesn't sting anymore."
Samantha stepped downstairs. "Who is it?"
"It is Danny, Carter, and Flora!" Grant said. "Survivors of the zombie attacks."
"Lucky you," Samantha muttered. "How did any of you survive?"
"Me and Flora were with the other diggers," Carter explained. "But then Danny and Nina showed up, then one of our workers, infected by a zombie bite, turned into a zombie of his own. Then he, me, Flora, and a digger left to find more survivors. The digger died."
"Pity," Samantha said. "Danny?"
"Well, its a long story," Danny muttered. "If you want to hear it, I'll tell you."
"Make a summary or something," Samantha said.
"Okay, but it might be a little hard. Um, basically, I woke to see my farming helper, Takakura, try to eat me. I escaped, and for the past few hours, went from groups of people to groups, as many died and were replaced by others. Eventually, two people stayed behind, Patrick and Nina."
"That wasn't so hard, was it?" Samantha asked.
"No," Danny said. "But it was hard witnessing it."
Everyone went quiet into an awkward silence.

Outside, Sebastian, Ruby, and Vesta were walking towards the house. Vesta climbed silently to the roof, and made way for the chimney...
