short chapter, I know. Sorry. But yay for introducing the show characters?


"Let's go inside and talk." I offer to the man currently holding me at gunpoint. "No need for anybody to get hurt. In gonna turn around and introduce myself. I promise not to hurt you, just as long as you can do the same for me."

I feel the man back away so I slowly turn around. He looks to be about 40, with a beard and wears a sheriff's badge. "Hello. My name is Elsa. What's yours?"

"Never mind that. We will save introductions till later. I need to know if you have medicine. My daughter is sick and I need something to help her feel better."

"You have a daughter? Where is she?"

"Yes and a son." he turns around and motions towards the trees, "Bring your sister."

A boy who looks about my brothers age comes walking out of the trees carrying a small child.

"Is she infected or is she just sick?"

"She's not infected!" yells the boy. "She's just sick. Now answer my dad. Do you have medicine or not?"

"Not at this moment, but my men went out this morning to the university hospital to get some more. I'm assuming its not just you three? If you can promise you won't hurt anyone, I give you my word that none of my people will hurt you."

The sheriff motions to the trees once more and a small group consisting of 12 people walk out, guns raised. "Lower them, she's going to let us in."

"Kyle! Open the gate." I lead the group of people into my home. "Welcome to Havenbrook."
