Chapter 2 : Alice

When I opened the door to the shop, I immediately froze in my tracks. A small red dot appeared on my forehead. A woman with dirty blonde hair was the holder of the gun. She slowly lowered her gun.

"Who are you, are you infected? Have you been bitten?" She talked frantically and had a shifty look to her. Under a fishnet top was a orange crop top and a small red and white pendant.

"No, I'm fine.Who are you?" I said kinda snarkily.

"I'm Alice. Have you found any other survivors?" She asked sternly.

"Im Brandon, and as a matter of fact I have…" I said scanning the glass cases and shelves. There were barely any options left besides one gun. I knew it as soon as I laid my eyes on it. The Ruger SP101. I grabbed it off the shelf.

"Hey! What do ya think your doing!" Alice said taking the gun from me at light speed.

"This isn't a toy! You could really get hurt…" she said

"Look I've been to a shooting range before. I know how to shoot a gun." She looked at me hesitantly and handed me the gun. I took a closer look at it a realized I had no ammo. It only had 5 bullets currently. I walked to the back room where I found stairs. I went up them with my gun in hand. At the top of the stairs I saw a pool of blood. I went on. In the bed room I saw a box.

In it layed a LeMat Revolver, in pristine condition. It also had four boxes of ammo. I grabbed it and put the gun in one of my two holsters. The ammo went in my bag along with my pocket knife. Behind me I heard a moaning noise that I was all to familiar with. I did a 180 degree turn and shot of my revolver. It hit the zombie right in the head and it went down instantly. I ran down the stairs to find Alice standing in the doorway, TMP ready to fire off.

"What happened?" She asked

"I had a tea party with the Queen of England." I said sarcastically.

I walked to the door of the building and looked back to see Alice right behind me.

I made my way to the church where I saw the woman ran to. I wondered what she had said to me when we were separated. The night was warm and humid. At that moment I realized that when I woke up, it wasn't raining.

How long was I out?

"So, what happened to you?" Alice asked looking at my shirt. It was blue and in rainbow letters it said "MTV". I hadn't even noticed the large slash in the back.

"It probably ripped when I fell onto the truck. It kinda sucks it was ruined,it was one of my favorite shirts."I said feeling the back.

"Fell on a truck? How the hell did you do that?" Alice asked chuckling a bit.

"Well, I was trying to jump roofs, and mid jump I fell. I banged my chin up pretty badly"

"Jeez kid, your pretty daring huh?"

"Actually, I really wouldn't do that type of thing in normal circumstances. But that wasn't one of those times."

Again my luck fails to deliver. As the church came into view, so did a billion and one zombies. Me and Alice took out our guns but as we were about to shoot, my luck kicked into full gear. A missile launched directly at us, but it just barely missed, and hit the zombies, eradicating the instantly. We looked up to see the hulking beast that attacked earlier.

"My god, with how many times we've met, I can just call you my arch Nemesis." Alice said sarcastically.

"You've met!?" I said bewildered.

"Too many times for my liking." She said pulling the triggers on both her TPMs.

"Come on! Lets go!" I said, a bit more desperately than I intended.

"Go! I got this!" She ordered.

I ran as fast as I could to the church. When I finally got there, my heart sank. The doors were barricaded shut. I searched around for something, anything. Finally my eyes focused on a motorcycle, keys still in the ignition.
