I
gripped the console as I watched the twitches and spasms of the zombies’
movements closing in on us. They were everywhere…the grass, the sidewalk, the
driveway. There was no mistaking the rotting, grey flesh that exposed the
muscle and bone of the undead. They were something I’d run from countless
times, but this time we had nowhere to run. The undead had us trapped. They
would rip us to shreds in an instant.
“I
think some of ‘em are new,” I said, turning my attention back to Gavin.
There
were some clean-looking zombies staggering toward us, their flesh mostly
intact. That made no sense. The outbreak had been contained for months. There
should be no freshly infected roaming around. Everyone had been vaccinated. The
only stragglers evading capture had been around awhile, so their bodies were
beat up badly by the time they were caught. Not these.
“Let’s
hope not,” he murmured, not bothering to look out the window to confirm nor
deny my suspicions.
“We
can’t run. They’d totally get us before we got away,” I said, hoping he’d
correct me, tell me that we had a chance.
He
didn’t.
He
slammed his fist into the steering wheel and looked over at me. When the
outbreak happened, we never looked back. We were always on the move, running
from the disease that took our families and friends. That was the key to
survival. Never stay in one place. Always stay on the move. Now we had nowhere
to move. I glanced over at Gavin and saw the fear in his eyes. Even with
everything we’d encountered, his eyes had never held this amount of terror.
“Babe,
whatever happens…”
“Knock
it off,” I said.
“We
have nothing to fight them with, and a horde this size needs a distraction.”
“Don’t
you dare,” I hissed, shaking my head. The fear was pulsing through me at an
unstoppable rate. “We didn’t live through the outbreak to die now.”
