HIYA!

I woke up on the right side of the bed today and managed to put together a chapter! Dusty read through the other two and edited them. So I might update those. It wasn't that big of a change, Just some grammar and some sentences that made no sense.

Dusty is still choosing. Apparently she is stuck between two character and has no idea who to choose. I'm giving her time to decided, but I told her, I would need her choice soon enough. She agreed.

Now here is the new Chapter!

- 4 Years in the Future-

"Diana" called a blonde girl as she walked out of the bunker.

"Barney, What is it?" Diana said as she turned towards the blonde.

" Well, you were out here for a while. I was just wondering how you were doing." Barney said as she pulled out a candy and popped it into her mouth.

"I'm fine. Just needed some air. It gets stuffy in there." Diana said as she looked off into the distance.

" Well, Don't you worry! The others are trying to fix that!" Barney said as she hugged Diana. Diana held the younger girl in the hug while shaking her head. Barney was the one to break the hug.

"Thanks Barney. I needed that." Diana said with a smile. She then looked back at the bunker. "Can you go see what everyone wants for lunch?"

Barney jumped up and started running toward the door.

"Sure Diana!"

Diana pulled out her journal and opened to an old journal entry.

Dear Journal,

Today we found this blonde girl. She was just merrily walking through the zombie filled street. It was kind of weird how she did not really attract many of those monsters. Not even when she banged her cane against a car. Oh they went to the sound, but only one of them actually followed her. The one that did, she killed it while saying some witty joke. She sure is strange. Says her name is Charlie, but to call her Barney. On the other hand, she has jolly ranchers!

Diana Faith

-Present time (Morning of day 1)

On a quiet street stood a white house with large windows on the second floor. Inside that house, laying in bed, was a strawberry blonde girl still asleep. As she turned in her sleep, she giggled softly. Across the room was an alarm clock. It was place away from the bed, so the person sleeping would have to get up and turn it off. As the clock switched from 5:59 to 6:00, the alarm played out a random song.

Charlie jotted up from the bed and stared at the alarm clock. After a minute, she giggles and starts to dance along to the song as she looked around her room for the perfect outfit. Going to a drawer she pulled out the majority of her shirts, until she settled with a long white sleeved shirt. Throwing it onto the bed, she danced over to the closet and opened the door.

In the closet, a row of jeans all sat folded neatly. She looked at all the jeans, before deciding on a regular blue jean with no designs. Throwing it on the bed,she then bent down and looked at her shoes. Picking her favorite black sandals, she quickly danced over to the bed. Dropping the sandals in front of the bed, she then turned to the adjacent bathroom and made her way over to it.

As she half skipped into the bathroom, she saw herself in the mirror. " Wow, my hair looks like a lion's mane" She said with a laugh before grabbing the brush sitting on the counter. Brushing through it quickly, she stopped when she saw that it was wavy just like she liked to keep it. Quickly doing everything else she needed to do in the bathroom, she then skipped out into the bedroom and changed from her pajamas to the clothes.

After a few minutes, she walked out of her bedroom door, closing it with a small pull. Skipping down the stairs, she saw that her family were all sitting in the kitchen table. Sitting down across from her sister, she looked at the breakfast on the table.

There were pancakes and muffins. She grabbed a muffin and took a bite into it. As soon as she swallowed the piece, she turned to her mom. "Mom, that muffin is delicious!" She exclaimed.

"Thanks Charlie. Glad you like it. Today's flavor is blueberry." Her mother said as she sat down in her chair. Across the table, Jacklyn, Charlie's sister sat with a pile of pancakes covered in syrup. Jacklyn looked at her sister before asking " Barney, are you going out today?"

Charlie looked up and nodded her head as she swallowed her muffin piece. " Yes, I like so saw this adorable outfit in the store down town. And since I saved my money, I want it." She looked at the clock hanging over the kitchen doorway and saw that it was almost 7:30.

Quickly standing up, she looked at her family and smiled. " Thank you for the delicious food! I will be going out!" She said as she pushed in her chair and quickly made her way to the front door. Opening it, she stared up at the blue sky and smiled.

Grabbing the small black handbag next to the door, she quickly skipped out and onto the street. All around were signs of people getting up and getting ready. She quicken her pace until she got to a house on a corner. Looking in she saw a muscular guy doing some sit ups. She sighed dreamily and then continued on.

As the center of town grew closer, she gasped when she saw an old man looking all afraid. She looked around and noticed that there were not many people and the one's who were around didn't seem to paying attention to the old man.

She frowned slightly and then walked over to the man standing in the alleyway.

" Excuse me sir, but are you okay" She said with a smile to the man. The man looked at her and started to swing his cane toward her head. She gasped and ducked quickly before trying to grab the cane. Pulling it away from the man's hands, it caused the man to fall out of the alley way with a shout. Seeing as the other people finally took noticed of the man, she made a quick apology and ran down the street with the cane in hand. Behind her a scream was heard as well as some moaning.

She continued until she was right in front of the store she wanted to go to. The door was held open by a figure sitting on the ground staring straight into nothing. She thank the person and walked inside. Looking around, She grabbed a blue shirt and a black skirt and made her way to the register. Nobody was around so she rang the little bell. A figure ran up to her and quickly pushed her to the ground. She looked at the person and gasped when she saw that the person had a huge part of its face missing. It's mouth moved weirdly causing blacken blood to pour out. She felt disgusted by that and upset the her white shirt was no longer white. Moving the only arm she could, she grabbed the cane and smack the person in the head.

The "person" fell and stayed down. Charlie looked around and for the first time realized that all the people that were in the store were also missing parts of their bodies. One guy didn't have an arm.

She ran out of the store and looked around. Banging the cane by accident on the door, she realized that most of those monsters were making their way towards her. She stood very still and watched as all the monsters passed by her.

With a sigh of relief, She looked to the right and then to the left. Deciding to go to the right, She skipped off as a scream rang out from the store she had just left.

This one was a bit hard to write. And its not as long as some of the other chapters. Charlie Barnes is a really interesting character, that is for sure. I also know it wasnt filled with that much action. But like I said, it was a bit hard to write. I had to think as if I was a childish not smart person.

ANYWAYS, I would like to thank KeepLovingStars for sending her in.

On the other hand, KeepLovingStars owes me a few jolly ranchers from his/ her attempt of eating all the Jolly ranchers of the world. And a bandage since he/she chase me around asking for more updates and I may have fallen and gotten hurt.

Anyways hope you like it!
