A Dark secret

In her warm embrace Rose felt safe as they walked through the darkness searching for the safe house. After what seemed like millennia they reached and abandoned Air National Guard depo. "Come on inside Rose it's safe here", Marie said.

"Ok", replied Rose. Marie managed to pull open a large steel door and they walked inside still embracing. "Ok, Rose I need you to sit here for a minute while I talk to the others" Marie showed Rose to a room in the barracks and walked away slowly and started wondering why Rose was alone wandering the streets; she was wearing a police uniform after all. "Who are you Rose?"

As Marie walked through the darkened hallway she could hear the sounds of laughter and conversations of those here before her in her head.

"This world has become a black shell of what it once was, but we can still survive and make it better. I miss those summer texas days without worries ahh good times."

Marie made her way through the maze that was the officer quarters and walked up to the sniper nest on the roof of the complex where she found Master Gunnery Sergeant Jack Goodman USMC.

"Gunny I found a live one, looks to be a police officer though she couldn't be over 25", shouted Marie.

"Oh really that's interesting, what has she said about herself?", Jackson replied

"Nothing except her name and I barely got that I found her trying to blow her brains out down near section 9"

"Well, that's a shame why didn't you let her that's one more mouth to feed."

"That's not funny Jackson", said Marie" and you know it".

"Haha", Jackson chuckled" I found it hilarious, well I take it back is she pretty it would be good to get some good tail a mans got needs you know?"

"You're a sick basterd you know that", Marie said after hitting him in the gut.

"Ow, you know I was only having a spot of fun" Now serious Jackson said,

"How do we know she's not infected and just not showing the signs yet?"

"I just know ok"

"I hope your right or you've killed us all."

"You're a riot", said Marie sarcastically." "I try I try"

"Now let's get Dimitrii and put him on guard duty and then see what we can get her to tell us about her"

"Sounds good Gunny" Both of them walked through the bleak ruined building that was there base until they came to the mess. "Dimitrii we need you to go up to the nest for half an hour Marie found a survivor and we need to talk to her."

"Ok, comrades this I will do", Dimitrii replied as he started walking toward the nest.

"Alright Marie let's go meet our new friend"

The rest of there walk to Rose was spent in silence both of them absorbed in their own thoughts some more pure than others. Then finally got to the bunk in the enlisted barracks where Marie had left Rose. Rose was still sitting on the bed crying.

"Hey Rose it's me Marie remember me" She only shook her head

"And my names Jack Goodman just call me Gunny ok, sweet heart"

"I'm not your sweet heart", screamed Rose" My only love was taken by him."

"Whose he Rose", asked Marie "He is the nightwalker, the shadows, he is pure evil, he is my- Before she could finish an ear splitting screech cam from outside and Dimitrii came running in the room. "There you are comrades, they are here hundreds of them"

"Shit they fallowed us", said Marie "Gunny, Dimitrii with me Rose you stay here"

And they all rushed off to there combat positions. Rose suddenly felt a presents behind her and turned around to find a shadowy figure behind her. Her eyes glowed with fear, and then the creature spoke. "There you are Rose; I've been looking for you"

"You……you", Rose managed to stutter. "Remember me Rose, I'm your master", He said with an evil grin on his face.
