Chapter Five:

Leave Us Alone

I watched the boy from my dreams fight the hoard carefully. He didn't seemed to be all that concerned for himself, which I thought was rather strange, but instead swinging his sledgehammer back and forth to smash into walkers to keep his companions protected.

He paused to adjust his snapback before dropping the sledgehammer and shooting a few zombies with the twin pistols, the purple haired boy yelled to him, and he just shot him a cocky smirk before calling something I couldn't understand back at him. His emerald eyes flashed in anger when he saw a zombie try and attack the raven haired boy from behind, and he hastily shot it down once, and the two dogs growled and attacked the fallen corpse.

But the zombie numbers were increasing. They couldn't hold them off forever.

"Dawn." I whispered softly to the bluenette. "I think we should help them."

Dawn looked at me as if I had lost my mind. "What! It's an apocalypse May! Survival of the fittest!" She snapped, and I placed a hand over her mouth to silence her.

I took a deep breath and shook my head. "We have to help them. I'll explain later, but right now we need to get back to the van and tell Misty and Brock the plan."

Dawn glared at me in annoyance, but nevertheless followed me back towards the van. "So tell me dear May, what is the plan?" She growled.

I smirked and shrugged. "There isn't one. We don't think in situations like this. We act."

Dawn and I jumped into the van and slammed the doors shut.

"Alright Misty, drive girl!" I grinned mischievously and Misty looked at me in shock. "What did you say?"

I groaned and slapped my forehead. "You like killing walkers right? So drive! Take as many out with the van as you can and Dawn, Brock and I will shoot from the windows. Be careful not to hurt the boys."

Misty shrugged and stepped hard on the gas, sending us backwards in surprise, but we soon recovered and prepped our weapons. I rolled down the back windows and snapped out my rifle, shooting a walker that was about to attack the raven haired boy from behind. I heard the sound of a machine gun firing, and soon about five walkers collapsed from the corner of my eye, and I heard Brock whoop in victory. Dawn took out her rifle opposed to her bow and her eyes were narrowed in concentration, skillfully landing hits on walkers close to the purple haired boy that I wouldn't have dared to try and shoot out of fear of hitting him. Misty was of course being Misty, did donuts from the wheel to run over zombies, yelling profanities as she killed each one.

The boys had stopped fighting to watch us in shock, and I couldn't help but smirk at their dumbfounded expression.

Soon, the walkers were no more, and I checked left and right before deciding it was a good idea to open the door and jump out of the van, Blaze at my side. Dawn notched an arrow to her bow and jumped out, and Brock and Misty soon followed, weapons at the ready. I, being the peace lover out of it all, dropped my rifle as I approached the three boys, who were standing with their own weapons ready in case we decided to attack them. Their dogs looked at Blaze, who flicked his ear at them.

They were outnumbered after all.

I looked up and saw the green haired boy step forward, his emerald eyes narrowed as he looked at us. I raised one eyebrow and gave him a questioning look, and his eyes found their way to mine.

Emerald met sapphire.

We stared at each other for a moment until I decided to speak, uttering two simple word.

"You're Welcome."

The boy smirked, crossing his arms as though he found the situation funny. "What, do you want a rose or something for your troubles?"

I narrowed my eyes and placed my hands on my hips. "No, a simple thank you would suffice. It was my idea to save your sorry asses anyway."

The purple haired boy raised his gun threateningly. "Who said we needed help?"

The raven haired boy rolled his eyes and sighed. "Fine, if these two want to be stubborn about it, they can. I'm grateful for your help, so thank you."

"Hold it Ketchum!" Thee green haired boy growled. "Nobody said I wasn't grateful!"

"No, that was me." The purple haired boy growled coldly.

Misty smirked and twirled her Machete carelessly in the air. "Your welcome runt."

"Hey!' The raven haired glared, crossing his arms with a huff. "No short jokes!"

Dawn, and Brock chuckled but I nudged the red head cautiously. "Misty, tone it down."

I turned to the green haired boy, with a frown. "I'm May, the redheads Misty, beanie girl is Dawn and the only male is Brock. My dogs name is Blaze." I grinned slyly, and the green haired boy smiled slightly. "Who might you three be?"

"I'm Drew." The green haired smirked, flicking hair casually away from his face. "Nice guy over there is Ash, and cold shoulder is Paul. My dog is the German Sheppard named Rosie, and the Retriever is Ash's dog Peaks."

I nodded Dawn and narrowed her eyes slightly. "What were you three doing over run by walkers anyway?"

"We were getting breakfast in the nearby cafe when we were over run." Ash sighed, patting Peaks affectionately and fixing the dogs blue bandanna around his neck. "We weren't paying attention."

Brock nodded, pulling out his notebook and scribbling something down before closing it. He examined the black haired boy and then frowned when he noticed a gash on his arm. "Hey Ash, where did that come from?"

Ash threw a quick glance at it before shrugging. "Walker scratch."

Immediately the four of us flew backwards, and aimed our rifle at him, and the boy held up his hands right away. "Hey! Calm down! I'm immune to them!"

I narrowed my eyes and slowly lowered my gun. "W-what?"

Drew sighed and turned his back on us. "We have a lot to talk about, so you four might as well come with us. You're useful with weapons and have lots to share as well."

Paul looked mortified. "What! Drew you cant be serious!"

Drew shrugged. "Strength in numbers, besides they saved our lives Paul!"

"So? How do we know we can trust them?" Paul snapped, pointing his gun at me.

I crossed my arms with a scowl and glared at the purple haired boy. "If we wanted to raid or kill you we would have done it already."

Misty took one look at our now destroyed van and nodded. "We should go, that van is completely totalled anyway."

Dawn stopped us my holding out her hand. "Hang on. How do we know if you're trustworthy?"

Drew turned to Dawn with a smirk. "Hey blunette, duck."

Dawn shrugged and ducked, and the sound of a pistol fired, and from behind us, a walker that had been trying to sneak up on us dropped dead to the ground.

I looked at Drew in shock, but the boy twirled his gun and returned it to his pocket. "Now are you coming with us or what? My truck is just up ahead."

Drew is flawless in every way :D Hope you enjoyed! If I can get 3+ Reviews of nice things you've done for others I'l post a new chapter :D

Love y'all
