"Up, get up," Bland yelled.
Rain jumped up and brought her hand up by her face, into a salute. Bland walked by laughing. "At ease soldier."
Matt was up too, but not out of bed. "Come on. Out of bed. We've got to move today, remember?"
"Right," Matt said sitting up on his bed, "What time is it?"
"It's only 6:00," Kristy said coming into the room, pulling her hair back into a ponytail. When she was finished
she tossed a spare ponytail holder to Rain, who started to put hers up.
Matt got up and walked around a bit as he thought about his dream. He didn't really think about what it
meant, he just didn't want it to come true. He looked over at Rain, who was strapping her boots back on.
"Come on, lets get moving." Bland said after Rain got done.
They all went outside of the door they had come in previously. Bland had his mask back on and was
leading, Matt was behind him with his gun, Kristy with something that looked like food for survival, and then
Rain, with her gun.
~*~*~*~*~*
They walked all day and into the night without any problems with those 'stupid fucking' zombies as Rain
Would've put it.
Matt looked around and noticed it was dark. He looked back to get a look at Rain, for some reason he liked
looking over at her, he couldn't really explain though, but she wasn't there. He stopped and turned all the way
around and looked into the pitch black dark, still no Rain. He was beginning to panic when he heard a noise pretty
far behind Kristy. Matt started to run into the dark, from which he had heard the noise. Matt ran into a little
clearing. In the middle he saw Rain stumbling toward him, he could just make out her face. It was full of fear, but
she still had her deep chocolate brown eyes, so he knew she wasn't yet a zombie. He ran up to her and pulled her
into a hug. He held her like a little child that had had a nightmare.
"Rain, what happened? What's wrong?" Matt asked as he pulled her away from him to look into her eyes.
"K-k-kap-," she stuttered, "Kaplin." She was trembling and Matt pulled her close again.
This was the first time he had really seen Rain so scared. Matt thought she looked like a small deer caught in
the headlights. 'So this must be her true fear. One of her squad members coming after her.' Matt thought stroking
her back as she held on to him with all her strength, as if she never wanted to let go 'but J.D. had attacked her.
This doesn't make any since.'
Matt scooped her up in his arms and carried her back to the group who had obviously stopped, but were
keeping close watch on things around them. Once there Matt stood her up and checked her neck and arms for
bite marks. Seeing that she had none he picked her back up and began walking with the group.
After about five minutes of walking Matt noticed that Rain was falling asleep. 'She looks so peaceful,' Matt
thought looking down at her. He hadn't really known Rain to act like this. 'What could've scared her this bad?'
Matt thought. In fact she had never acted like this before.
"We're coming to the new site." Bland said and Matt looked up and saw a small tilt in the hill that they
were going over. They came to the door of, what looked like, a small bomb shelter. Bland opened the door and
entered.
The bomb shelter had three rooms, one with beds, another for the food supply, and the other for a bathroom/
dressing room. Matt moved, with Rain, to the room with the beds. There he laid her down and put her under the
covers. He walked back into the main room with Josh and Kristy sitting on the floor talking. Matt stayed as close
to the wall as he could without being seen.
"So what do you think?" Bland said.
"Think about what?" Kristy asked looking over at him and then over to the room with the beds.
"About Rain and Matt"
"Oh, them. Do you mean besides that they're totally love struck or how good of fighters they are?"
"A little of both I guess."
But Matt never got to here what Kristy had to say, because Rain had whimpered in her sleep. Matt returned
to her side and sat on the side of the bed as Rain curled up on the opposite side. Matt started to stroke her back.
Noticing that she still had her hair up, Matt moved and undid her hair. He started to comb through it with his
fingers as she let out a small sigh. Matt slowly got up and went to the bed by Rain's and pulled it closer to Rain's
for when he got tired.
Matt went back into the main room with Bland and Kristy, "you guys coming to bed?" Matt asked as he got
into the room. Kristy nodded, just the same as Bland, and Matt headed back into the bedroom. He sat on the edge
of the bed he had pulled over, before he laid down and got under the covers.
Matt rolled over to face Rain, who was now facing him. The last image Matt had was of Rain, and soon he
fell asleep.

Author's Note: So what did ya think? Personally I think I could've done better. Anyway on with talking about the cliffhanger. What did Rain see, and what is making her act this way? You'll have to read the next chapter to find out. Anyway, BYE!!!!!!
Earth's Rain.
