2 days later

It had been 3 days since Mort went missing.

Ever since the shed explosion, no one could find him.

Until today.

Bandit was collecting sticks for Bingo.

She had asked him if they could make a stick bird the day prior.

It was still safe to go outside, as the apocalypse hasnt really started yet.

The crickets still only had one nest at the bunker.

Bandit found a good amount of sticks for the stick bird.

"There, this should do." he said as he picked another sitck up.

Then there was a noise.

It sounded like someone was vomiting non-stop.

Before Bandit got a good look at the source of the noise, it stopped.

When he walked to where the noise came from, there was nothing there.

Instead, a puddle of black sludge.

At first, Bandit only saw inside the sludge some uninteresting things like sticks, leafs, wood, grass, and... a hand.

A hand with a red arm and white palm.

"N-No, it can't be." Bandit said in shock.

He couldn't believe it.

He grabbed the hand/arm out of said sludge.

It was Morts' hand.

And that sludge was mutated oil.

The Globster.

It had consumed Mort when it was forming, and it vomited him out.

Bandit was horrified, so he sprinted back to the house.

He didn't go through the front door, he just jumped over the fence and got into the house.

Blueys school

Things had been down.

One of Blueys friends, Coco, had been abducted by a Blue Ford Explorer.

Missing posters were taped on to every street lamp she pasted by.

But thankfully, she was found near a church.

The kidnappers had taken her, and left her at the church.

The reason, well no one knew.

Coco was by herself in a corner.

She just needed to be alone for a while.

She started to have strange feelings.

Why her? Why was it her that hot dumped?

Outside, Bluey was having her own strange feelings.

She was laying on the ground wondering where these strange feelings were coming from.

All she knew is that it started when she was talking to John Luc.

It all makes since..

The strange feelings..

It was him..

But why?

Could it be? Was it possible?

It then hit Bluey like being hit with baseball at 100 mph.

She had a crush on John Luc.

But. It felt like a simple friendship a day before.

Now it was this.

one night

A void.

an empty void.

Bingo was having a nightmare.

"Hello?" she shouted.

"HelLo"

"YOu CLeaLy donT UndErstaNd THe HeLL YoUr IN Now. YoU NEEd to KnOw."

"wake up..."

Bingo woke up in a cold sweat.

She looked out her window and saw... Claypso.

Why was she here?

Claypso walked to the door

Bingo then heard Chili open the door.

Claypso came inside the house and went to talk with the heelers about a story.

2 hours earlier

Claypso was driving home from a restaurant.

She had to take a shortcut because of the freeway being littered with bodies and cars from the first attack.

It was raining again, and it caused her to miss an important turn, causing her to take the wrong path.

"Dannit" She said.

She was upset, understandably.

So she had to turn back.

But her car was out of gas.

Now she had to call a tow truck.

This made her even more upset.

Then she thought to herself, why not walk home, youre only 10 minutes away.

so she decided to leave her car there.

Bad move.

Claypso began to walk through a wooded area.

The same forset where Morts house was near.

She had a machetti in the truck of her car, so she brought it with her.

Good move.

Branches were getting in her way, so she toke out her machetti to cut them down.

Scre-

slice*

Claypso tripped on something begore falling sown a small cliff.

When she hit the ground, she saw a house.

Morts house.
