A/N: this got a bit hasty in the last chapter between Shigeru and Susie, but thanks to Humphrey's violent actions, it was settled and the group continues on down the road, where they find someone else alive and encounter a new enemy.

An hour passed from the brutal fight between Shigeru and Susie. The two stayed quiet the whole time they sat in the RV. Everyone in the RV and in the convoy was quiet as well and tried not bring it up again.

It was still daylight outside and the group wasn't even halfway across Missouri by then. Everyone was getting tired from being in the cars all day and needed a break from being cooped up. "Hey, we're going to need to make a stop. I haven't gotten to use the bathroom in hours" Hager said in a whining tone.

"Please Hager, we don't need to know about you need to make a dump" John said. "Just use the bathroom right behind us" Clark pointed to the RV bathroom behind him. "I kinda messed that one up yesterday while everyone was asleep" Hager said in an embarrassed tone. Carez walked into the bathroom, only to be blown by the horrible smell, then closing it again.

"Eugh, fuck. That smells worst then the undead being burnt" Carez said waving his right paw and covering his nose with his left. CJ groaned and picked up the radio and made the call to everyone. "Hey guys, we need to make a pit stop. And don't ask why, but we have a problem with bathroom in the RV" Then he slowed the RV down and made a turn to the right side of the road, with everyone else parking right behind him.

As soon as the RV stopped, Hager jumped out from the door and ran into a forest they drove through. "Please hurry up Hager, we can't be out too long" Carez shouted as he watched him ran into the trees. CJ opened the panel for the waste tank, and then the horrible smell came flying out into the air around everyone. "GAH, that stinks!" David said in a disgusted tone covering his nose.

Hager finished his business on a nearby tree and stood up to head back to the RV. "Man, I gotta lay off the meat next time at the camp fire" Hager said to himself as he picked up his rifle and began walking. But as he was walking, he hears a rustle in the bushes behind him. He raised his rifle and looked around.

It was quiet for a while before he walked again. As he took another step, he steps in something wet. He looks down to see a puddle of blood staining his feet. "What the. . ." he said before a drop of blood fell on his arm. He wiped it off, and then another drop fell on him. He then slowly looks up to at a tree and he sees a shredded body of an un-infected wolf. The skin and flesh of the wolf were torn off and the bones and intestines were hanging out.

"Holy shit" Hager said, backing up and tripping on something. He looks over to his right to see another shredded wolf body on the ground. Hager quickly stands up and cocks his gun. He had to warn the others about his discovery, but right as he turned around to take off, something huge with sharp thing on its arms jumps out from above the trees and attacks Hager.

Hager screams, echoing throughout the area. Everyone was busy waiting for him when they hear the scream. "Boy, it must be hard to get everything out" Garth joked. "I don't think that was a scream from pushing Garth" Humphrey said.

"It's nothing. You know how Hager is" Lake spoke. Just then they heard gunshots go off. "That wasn't nothing" Humphrey said as he took off running. "Lake, David, with me" Humphrey said as the two joined him. David followed him with his UMP45 and David followed him with his double-barrel shotgun.

The three of them raced through the trees as fast as they could to the source of Hager's screaming. When they finally got close the source, they saw what was unimaginable. The creature that was attacking Hager was lean, had blood stains all around the body, and had really long arms and bones that stuck out in a sharp form, known as the Stalker.

The stalker threw Hager over itself and he landed on his back. Then Hager saw Humphrey, Lake and David. "Guys help!" he cried, only to get pulled away by the Stalker and raised its claw in the air. The guys' eyes widen as the jumped from the bushes and raised their rifles at the Stalker. But the Stalker swung its claw at them, sending them back several feet. Humphrey could only get up to see the thing raise its claw again and stabbing Hager right through the waste. If it wasn't bad enough, the creature then violently pulled on Hager's legs, which came off completely.

Hager laid there lifeless. Humphrey then gritted his teeth and began shooting at the Stalker. It stood up and screeching in what seemed like it was in pain. Humphrey continued firing while Lake and David stood up and joined Humphrey on taking down the creature. David fired both shells at the thing, and then ran out of ammo. "Out of all the guns in the world, I had to get stuck with this lousy shotgun" David said in an annoyed tone as he reloaded.

He had put in both shells and locked it when the Stalker came running up to him after eating the lower half of Hager's body. "Guys help!" He shouted as he backed away and the falling backwards to the ground. Humphrey and Lake were about to fire when the guns clicked, out of ammo.

"David, no!" Lake cried in fear as he watched the Stalker run up to him and raise one its claws. David closed his eyes to brace the impact of the claw, when his ears hear gun shots going off to the left of him. He sees a red wolf with a brown combination; jump out from the trees and firing an ACR with a scope attached.

The Stalker looked to its right and was having bullets shot in its face, making it stumble backwards to its knees and then the red and brown wolf blows the arm off with a Striker shotgun, before it falling back and dying. David then sees the wolf walk up to him and speaking to him "Are you okay?" the wolf asked, strangely in a female voice. The guys' eyes widen as they closely look at the wolf to see it's a female wolf.

"You a survivor as well?" Humphrey asked as he walked up to the female, ready with M4A1. "Yes, who wants to know?" She asked. "My name's Humphrey, this is Lake, and that's David" Humphrey spoke as he pointed to Lake and David. "So what are you doing out here all by yourself?" Lake asked her. "I had just escaped from an attack from the south about 3 hours ago. My entire group was killed and I was only one that survived. Then I was walking when I heard screaming and gunshot, that's where I found your friend there already dead and attacking your other one" The female said pointing out to dead Hager and looking at David, who finally stood up.

"By the way, I'm sorry for your loss" She said sadly. "It's fine, we dealt with this before with our others group members and so did everyone in the convoy" Humphrey said. "Convoy?" the female asked. "Yeah, there are about 20 of us, including us, back at the road just down that way" Lake pointed towards the direction of the road. "You guys mind if I joined you, me and my group were suppose to get to Washington D.C before we got attacked" The female asked the guys. "I don't see why not" Humphrey said smiling.

"Thanks" The female said, as Humphrey led them all back to the convoy. "By the way, what's your name?" David asked the female. "My name is Rose" Rose said smiling.

A/N: Hager is now dead and Rose had joined the group to making it to Washington. 20 of them, only 15 will survive, and some familiar faces, who are dead, will return in the next set of chapters. See ya and goodnight!
