I'm loving the feedback I'm getting so far! I've recently finished another Chapter of the story so I thought I'd upload it! Some of you will be seeing your characters in the up coming chapters. Please don't be offended if I don't use your character! I'll use as many as I can but I don't want to over load the story with extra people! Please enjoy the next installment of the story!

"Melvin, Melvin wake up" Raven said as she opened the back seat where Melvin slept curled up. The 16 year old groaned as she stretched

"Where are we?" Melvin asked rubbing the sleep out of her eyes as she climbed out of the car grabbing her bag.

"In some abandoned city, we are out of gas and need to stop, there's a station a few blocks down, tomorrow morning Kori and Toni are going to walk down and load up" Raven said grabbing a few things from the back of their vehicle. "For now we are going to stay here out of sight"

"Any signs of walkers?" Melvin asked helping her carry stuff inside

"Yeah, they were all over the place but we managed to out drive them, if we weren't out of gas we would keep driving, this house seems to be safest" Raven said as they drove walked into the open garage.

"We've cleared enough space for the car, we're going to push her in now before it's spotted" Kori said as she and Toni walked back into the street. Raven led Melvin into the house where they piled old cushions from the couch onto the living room floor. Raven wandered into the bedrooms and found a few mattresses that she levitated on top of the cushions. She pulled out a tarp from one of the bags and laid it over top of the pile followed by an old but clean sheet.

"There, that should give us a soft place to sleep tonight" Raven said satisfied with her work.

"I'll fix us some dinner" Melvin said pulling out several things from their boxes and heading into the kitchen. Luckily it was still functioning, though dirty. She started a large pot of water boiling before setting about heating up a few cans of soup for them all. Toni and Kori came inside after shutting up the garage and they sat about boarding up the hall entrance and the front door and windows. It was better to be safe rather than sorry. Melvin poured them each a bowl of soup before turning everything off.

"Here's to a warm meal and soft bed for the night" Toni said accepting the large coffee mug full of soup.

"Here's to being alive one more day" Raven said accepting her own mug

"For friends to keep us company" Kori whispered taking the bowl

"Being one step closer to a chance at life" Melvin sighed as they ate in relative silence. After they ate Toni took the dishes to the boiling pot and began washing them. Kori pulled out a sketch pad and began doodling something while Melvin picked up a novel to read Raven sighed as she picked up the thick journal.

August 2, 2012. Some remote city on our way to Titans Tower.

It's been four years now since the start of the outbreak. We are on the move again, this time we are heading to the Titans Tower. It's been almost seven years since I stepped foot on that island in the bay. Emotions that I don't quite know how to name are making themselves known. A part of me hopes that our former team mates, our friends, have survived and made their way back to the tower. Another part of me fears their reactions to us. Seven years is more than enough time to change a person, but if that wasn't enough this post-apocalyptic world we live in is. Kori is so serious sometimes that she scares even me. Sometimes I miss when she was naive and innocent. Toni is so reserved sometimes that I fear we might lose her completely, and maybe we would have if it hadn't been for Melvin. I worry for her the most. I hope out of all of us Melvin survives this world, she deserves it, after all that's been taken from her. But enough on the sadness, I started writing this journal so there would be some account on the state of the world should the human race survive, or should some alien race find our desolate planet years after this disease has claimed us all. The walkers haven't evolved much in smarts or strength but they are living longer than before. While most can still be killed with our powers, those who were once metahumans are more resistant. I think a second strain of this disease is developing and I fear soon we won't be able to use our powers at all against them. Maybe it's just an unfounded fear, only time will tell. For Now, Raven

"Rae, what are you writing?" Toni asked as she sat down with her own book.

"An account of our journey, someone should have record, in case the humans don't survive." Raven sighed as she closed the journal and slid it back into her bag. "We should sleep, we haven't much time before we need to get up and head out."

"I slept the whole drive up, I'll take first watch" Melvin said as she picked up her rifle and sat by the door leading to the garage with her book. The other three lay down on the mattresses and fell asleep.

The green man slid into an alley before shifting into a humming bird and flying quickly out of sight from the walkers. They were getting dangerously close to his hideaway. He landed on the window seal of the grocery store and transformed into a beetle, crawling up the walls and inside. Good no walkers inside the boarded up building. He transformed back into a man and picked up one of the plastic sacks and a box of Ziploc baggies. Most of the food was rotted and moldy, but a few of the cheeses were still alright, so he sealed them in the baggies and placed them in the sack before moving to the bottled water, he threw a few in the sack followed by a couple of bowls and a few canned goods, even a small bag of dog food from the pet isle, and a chew toy for his new friend. After tying up the sack and double bagging it he transformed into a crow, flying out of a whole in the roof, clutching the bag in his talons.

"Here boy, I found us some food" He whispered to the dog as he became a man once more. The dog was still weary of the green man but he brought food and was nice, he also kept the weird smelling creatures away, so the dog stayed. The green skin man pulled out the two bowls; he filled one with water and the other with dog food, adding some leftover chicken in with it, before starting his own meal. The dog ate quickly as if the green man would turn on him and take away such a gift.

"Slow down there Titan, it's all for you" the green man laughed as the dog looked at him curiously but ate a bit slower. When both had finished their dinner, the green man pulled out a ball.

"I got this for you, I thought maybe you'd like to play" He said gently tossing the ball. The dog ran after it, catching it and bringing it back, his tail wagging or the first time in weeks. The green man smiled "That a boy Titan, that's a good name for you, Titan. My name is Beast Boy, well Garfield now, I haven't been Beast Boy in a long time boy, but you my friend may call me Gar"
