Chapter 7

Louise and Katie had decided to stay at Jace's for awhile to regain their strength and stock up on supplies. It was nice Louise found it nice to have a friend her own age... well almost. Katie felt like he was her big brother and kept calling him 'Oniichan' and Woof. He didn't care as long as he had food. Every night Louise would have flashback's of when she was young. Whether she was with what looked to be her parents or those boy's. She had no idea what they meant. But she is going to find out soon.

It was a normal day at Jace's house. Well I say normal in the sense that there had been no zombie attacks so it isn't really normal... more abnormal. Anyway Louise had just woken up from yet another dream. She was in darkness and the boy's were there again shouting out her name. 'Louise! Louise! Where are you?' She was so confused. Did she know them? Is she going to know them? Louise sat down on the sofa frustrated. A few moments later Jace walked in and made some tea for himself and some hot chocolate for Louise. She didn't care for tea much. "You alright?" He asked sitting next to her. "Huh? Oh yeah fine" Louise trailed off. When she looked him holding out the hot chocolate only then did she realise he wasn't wearing a shirt. She took the steaming drink and hid her face in it to hide her blush.

"You still having those dreams?" He asked. "Yeah. I don't know what they mean." She squinted her eyes. "I feel like I should know them." He swung his arm over her shoulders. "You'll be fine." He smiled. "Your smart enough." "Thanks" She smiled sipping her drink. They heard a door open and Katie walked in rubbing her eye. "Ohaio." She said tiredly. "Ohaio. Katie" Louise said. She picked up her sister and took her to the kitchen. "What would you like this morning?" "I'll have toast and milk." She cheered started to wake up. "Ahhh. Healthy. Healthier than you." Jace joked. "Thanks." Louise laughed.

After breakfast they all sat down on the sofa and put on the news. The apocalypse has taken many lives and scientists are working extremely hard to cure those who have been infected. Those who have survived so far well down. I salute you. God bless us all! Louise turned it over to cartoons. "Same old story." She sighed. "Yeah" Jace joined in. Woof came in a lay on the floor. Suddenly they heard a car alarm outside. Jace checked the window. "SHIT!" He cursed and began to pack. "What? What is it?" "Take a look!" Louise quickly rose to her feet and looked out the window. It was zombies. A lot of them. Louise ran from the window and packed everyone's belonging's. "How are we gonna out run them?" "I have a pick-up-truck!" Jace shouted. Louise nodded and started to load things into the blue truck. She quickly buckled in Katie and made sure woof was inside to. Jace ran out of the house with a extra bag. "What's that?" "Safety precautions." Louise nodded. They climbed into the truck and took off.

They drove down the street taking down zombies as they went. Some even began running after the truck. "Crap they're getting faster!" Louise said. "Oniichan?" Katie asked. "Yeah?" "Are we going to be ok?" Louise turned to her sister while Jace looked at her through the rear view mirror. She was sitting with her knees tucked in. Her eyes were wide with fear and tears. Jace put on a determined face. "Of course we are!" Louise looked at him. He was so serious. "I promise to protect you two no matter what!" Louise smiled. "Thank you" she whispered. She then turned to Katie and stroked her hair. "See. Jace will protect us." She smiled. Katie nodded "umm!" Jace looked at them both and smiled. He only met them a few day's ago but he felt like they were his family. Katie as a little sister and Louise... Well he'd never met anyone like her. She's determined and beautiful and caring. He was going to be in trouble if he fell for her. It's a zombie invasion it was no time for love. Just survival.

They drove for a few hours and came to another empty street. 'It should do for tonight.' Jace thought. He opened the door and brought the luggage in. When he returned to the car he saw both girls asleep and Woof looking at him. Jace carefully picked up Katie and lay her down on a small bed in one of the rooms. Woof jumped out of the car and into the room Katie was in. Jace shook his head and went to get Louise. He opened the door and stopped. He just stared at her closed eyes, he lashes brushing her cheeks, her slightly parted lips. And her hair. He very blue hair. It was hanging down loosely around her shoulders and her fringe was covering the top of her closed eyelids. He carefully brushed her hair away from her face and caressed her cheek with his hand. He didn't know why but the more he thought of her the closer he got to her face until he could feel her warm breath against his lips.

He went to lean in the rest of the way when her eyes shot open and she punched him. He landed on his butt outside the truck. Louise looked around and saw Jace. "Shit! Oh holy mother fucking duck. I'm so sorry. I was having a dream again. He laughed. "It's ok...Ugh man you punch hard. She smiled and helped him up. She took him inside and bandaged up his nose. "I'm sorry." She wined again. "It's fine." He chuckled and put his hand on her shoulder. She laughed nervously and looked at him. She leant up and kissed his nose causing a blush to appear on both their faces. "Sorry." She smiled shyly. "Louise I..." "Kyaaaaaaaaa!" They heard Katie scream. "KATIE!" They ran into a room to see a zombie biting Woof. "No! Shit!" Jace ran out and got his shot gun when he came back in he saw Louise shielding Katie as the zombie walked threateningly towards them. It jumped and he shot. The zombie fell against the wall.

"How did it get in?" They looked around and found a hole in the back door. Louise sighed. "We need to be more on guard!" "Right!" Jace agreed they both walked back into the room to see Katie crying over Woof's body. Louise frowned and comforted her sister. "Why? Why did this happen?" Katie screamed. "I know baby. I know." Louise rocked her back and forward. Suddenly Woof's paw twitched. Katie let go of Louise and got closer. "Katie. Get away." Jace warned. The dog slowly rose on its four paws and growled. "Woof?" He lifted his head and his fur was patched and rotten. Katie shook her head with wide eyes. "NO! NO! NOOO!" She began crying again as Jace got out his gun. Woof jumped ready to attack when BANG.

"Again we lost another precious life. He as very important to us both and we will never forget him." Louise and Katie stood over a make shift grave in a graveyard. Rain was pouring down on this sad day. Louise was wearing a black dress that went to her knee's.(She found it in a random house.) Katie also was dressed in black and Woof was in his usual fur. They all stood over the grave head's bowed. Katie then put some red and white roses on it. "I'll never forget you. I love you!" She began crying and ran to Louise. "Hey!" They turned to see Jace run towards them. He was holding a small prayer card. "Got it." He handed it to Katie and she lay it on the grave. Jace hugged Louise from the side whilst she hugged Katie from behind. The card read... To Woof, we wish you the nest in heaven. Say hello to the rest of those who died. We love you more than anything and will never forget you. Goodbye old friend.

Woof looked at the make-shift family of 3 and smiled a doggy smile. 'I love you too human's. It was a pleasure serving you all. Goodbye.' He turned and wandered down the path then disappeared into thin air. Another day, another saved soul.
