I'm so sorry guys that I haven't been up to date. With school and all it's been really hard to catch up. I think of you guys all the time. This next chapter you will love. I promise. What else could go wrong when you run away?

Chapter 2-

His mind raced with excitement. All the things he could finally do. He started to play it in his mind. First, he'd learn how to drive. Maybe a car like Shane's or like a big S.U.V. He'd drive into the country to find a nice small home. Or at least with good security. And stay put until he sets his courage. But something was trying to hold Carl back. Maybe it was faith, telling him to stay. But he felt it was his destiny to leave.

The trees and bushes flew by. He didn't even notice that he was running until he had to dodge a tree. He chuckled at himself for being so clumsy. All he wanted was to be himself. Be a kid. But now, Carl has to be an adult. Change his world from a complete disaster, to a wonderful paradise.

Mmm, paradise. Maybe he would steal a cruise ship. Most likely not. He probably couldn't pilot a ship till he lay on his deathbed. That's the word that worries me. Maybe leaving wasn't so great. Maybe he made a mistake that he couldn't ever resolve. What would he tell Lori? Rick? Oh god, I made a terrible mistake.

Finally I came to a stop, breathing heavily. Trying to catch my breath. All this excitement took everything out of me. Living alone could make me crazy. Would I find someone? My age? What about security? Weapons? Food? Oh geez. I need to calm down. I took the water bottle from my book-bag and took a swig.

I put it back in and began to run again. The sun would be setting soon & I don't want to be around when something comes looking. Soon I'd make it to my own home. A paradise.

~LATER~

I found a bus on the highway. It was still intact. Looks like the people who was riding it left before anything came inside. I shut the door, closed the windows and lay on the floor under a seat. The moonlight was bright tonight. Hoping that it wouldn't just be shining on me. I wonder what their thinking back at the farm. I hope they think I'm locked in my room fast asleep. I kept thinking of things and my mind worrying about walkers. I mean how hard could it be to find a lil' boy asleep in a bus on a abandoned highway? Not really hard if you think about it.

I closed my eyes and pictured a cruise ship in the middle of a sea. The sun warm and cozy. Before I knew it, I fell asleep. In a bus, under a seat, in a apocalypse world. Great.

I felt a hand hit my cheek. I thought I was me dreaming for a minute, until I heard some laughing. Some water hit my face and I bolted up. Somehow I was in the isle. Thank god. I would have giving myself a black eye under the seat. I wiped my eyes, vision refocusing. I hoped it wasn't my parents. And guess what it wasn't. there were 3 kids looking down at me. A boy with dirty blonde hair. Another boy with black hair. And girl with wavy brown.

"Hello sunshine!"

I looked at them with confusion. Who are they? Why are they here? Are they infected?

"What? Who are you." I said looking at the blonde. He seemed older.

He looked at me. His blue eyes burning a hole in me.

"My name is Eric, this is Jake, and that is Allisa."

"What are you doing here?"

"Oh, we found your bus when we thought we were being followed by some walkers."

"WHAT?" I said bolting up and looking out the window.

"Not now silly, last night."

This is so weird. I run away, find a bus, sleep, wake up to find three kids hiding from walkers? It got awkward and silent for a moment. Allisa just stared at me. She had beautiful green eyes. You could tell she spent most of her time alone. She had makeup all over her. Not in a messy way. Like a cute, professional way actually.

"Well where are you guys going?"

"To Fort. Constancio. Why?"

"Fort Constancio? Never heard of it."

"really? Wow. Your really out there? Aren't you?"

"yea maybe."

We all chuckled a weird silent one. Maybe this is a new start. New friends. Maybe I could go with them. Bahaha.

"can I come?"

"yea… pack up. Were leaving in ten."

God help me with this travel. Guide me to safety & prosperity. And help with the new relationship.

Wow that's it. He find some kids. Weird huh? Youll find out what fort. Constancio is. In like 3 chapters. I hope this is not going to fast. Its 10:54 NITE. Thanks for reading though. Review!
