Chapter 11: Camping

Tristan: Literally seeing a light at the end of a dark tunnel, I look behind one last time to make sure there aren't any infected to ruin the moments. The three of us emerging from the dark hallway enter what I'm guessing was the parking lot for when the military was here. There are a bunch of military vehicles, mostly jeeps and hummers, around us. What tires aren't missing are either slash or are just out of air, and all the vehicles have their hoods up, meaning the military must have stripped them of their parts before moving to the bunkers. "Holy hell," Bailey says, panting through her masks as we walk away from the dark hallway. "That was intense." "You think," I ask, resting my hands on my knees as I look around. It's pitch-black now. The sun is gone and the moon and stars are covering the night sky above. Despite how quiet everything sounds, how there isn't even the sound of the wind, I know better. "Come on," I say, str

Chapter 12: Bridge Crossing

Bailey: Yawning as I stretch my limbs, I hear my bones crack while realigning themselves. Tilting my head and cracking my neck, I turn back to Tristan as he shuts the doors to the hummer. Loading the empty tin cans into his backpack, he tosses it onto his back and looks at Rebecca and me. "Are you two ready," he asks. "For a day of non-stop walking," I say, "Oh yeah." Hearing a sigh through Tristan's mask and seeing him shake his lower head, he nudges it a few seconds later and starts to walk. Rebecca and I follow after him, he guides us out of the parking lot and onto the deserted Boston streets. "Rebecca," Tristan says, turning back to her. "Listen, I know how to survive on the outside, but this is your city. You know it better than I do. If there are any places we passed that might have anything valuable, I want you to tell me. Okay?" "Got it," Rebecca replies, shooting Tristan a quick wave. "There might sti

Chapter 13: Museum Visit

Tristan: I pull out one of my pistols and aim it at the infected incoming. My finger on the trigger, I'm about to fire but stop. Rebecca is in the way, she's blocking my shot. "Damnit," I cry, running to the right. Now at a better angle, I aim at the infected once more. Closing one eye, I aim at the first infected's leg and fire. The bullet piercing a hole in the infected's leg, it leans over and drops off the sliver, plunging into the water below. Two more infected reach the sliver and I do the exact same. Shooting bullets through their legs, they groan as they drop into the water. "Hurry up," I yell, shooting a third infected. "This is only going to draw more attention." "I'm hurrying," Rebecca yells back. Rebecca: Sliding across the tiny sliver of leftover road, I eye the infected as they try to reach Bailey. Still sitting down, her face hidden behind her legs, I say fuck it to sliding and start running. Extending my arms so they're all the way out, I start running in a str

Chapter 14: The Walk

Rebecca: "How was the history lesson," Drifter asks, looking at us as we walk back into the room. "It was very educational," I answer, Bailey herself walking in and taking an empty seat. "What about you? Did you find anything useful?" Drifter reaches into his pocket and pulls out a few bullets. "That's not much," I say. "Maybe but it's still something." Drifter walks up to me and gives me the found bullets. "Here," he says, "I still got plenty of bullets from all these guns I took from Rex's goons." "Thanks," I say, reaching for my own gun. The clip drops out, I count the bullets inside. "Damn," I whisper, "Not even half a full magazine." Loading the bullets, I shove the clip back into my gun and toss it back into my pack. "It's late so you two go to sleep. I'll take the first watch. See you in two hours. Also, change the filter for your gas masks. This place isn't sealed." "No dinner," Bailey asks while digging into her pack for spare filters. "No," Drifter says, "No din

Chapter 15: The Suburbs

Tristan: We spend the whole day walking out of Boston. Shortly after getting off the bridge, Rebecca told us about a freeway that cuts through most of Boston nearby. We found it fast and despite most of it begin gone, there was still enough for us to follow. We stay low the whole time and kept our heads. Every two hours, we would stay for a few minutes to rest before going back on the road. Since it was daytime, there weren't many infected to worry about. "Son of a bitch," I say, combing my hair with my hand. As I do, I look at my hand. It's shining with sweats. "Boston is a lot bigger than I thought." Wiping my sweaty hand against my shirt, I crouch down and walk toward a rusted, four-doors sedan. The paint is long faded, the windows are all shattered, and the tires are both rotten and flat. Hiding behind it, I look around to make sure everything is clear. Once I see it is, I wave at Rebecca and Bailey to move up. The two running to me, I look around. "If memory serves," I say on

Chapter 16: Jumping Houses

Tristan: Running toward us as soon as they see us, I run back into the house and push the sofa against the empty doorway. The sofa only blocks the lower half but it's still enough. The infected all rush at once, and get stuck in the upper half. However, as I push the sofa against all the snarling infected, I have to stay out of reach of their swinging arms. "Hold on," Bailey says, pulling out a gun and aiming at the infected. "Don't shoot," I say, an infected's arm grabbing my hair. Screaming as I shake it off, a few strands ripping off, I ignore them and looks at the package. "Don't shoot. Just grab something and start hitting them. Keep them out of here." Bailey nods her head and disappears into the living room. Meanwhile, Rebecca grabs an infected arm and starts slicing them. Black blood flows out and drops onto me, she reaches for another arm. "What are you doing," I ask. "Making an opening," Rebecca answers, cutting off another arm. Tossing the limb to the side, she then sta

Chapter 17: From House to House

Tristan: "Oh no you don't," Rebecca says, stepping forward and grabbing my hands. Pulling me toward her, I fall onto the roof. I have to ignore the pain in my arms. I push myself up and start to push the two. "Come on," I say, "Before they see us." Pushing them toward a window, I kick it open and check to make sure it's empty. Once I do a quick scan, I wave at them to climb in. Just as Rebecca jumps in, the infected from the previous house break into the room. They flood the room in only a matter of seconds and look around. They don't see us so they start to sniff the air. "Stay down," I whisper, peeking over as the infected start to search the room. A few dropping to their hands, they start to sniff the floor. Meanwhile, some of the infected break into the closet, and a few even look out the window. When they look out the window, they turn toward me and I duck down. Rebecca and Bailey looking at me, I shake my head and point down. The two of them nodding their head, I press my ea

Chapter 18: The City's Limit

Tristan:I watch from the bedroom's window as the sun finally starts to rise. Its pale rays shooting in, I look toward the street at the infected all look at the sun themselves. Once they see it, most of them start to wobble inside the abandoned houses.A few infected tried to come inside the house but luckily, I blocked the front door with some old furniture. They push and push against the front door but to no anvil.The sun is still rising, a little more than halfway up now. Getting up from the floor, I carefully and quietly walk over to Rebecca and the package and wake them up."Get up," I say, hitting Rebecca on her legs. Yawning as she opens her eyes, she stretches her arms."Get up," I say, kicking the package in her stomach. Yawing as she pushes herself up from the floor, she adjusts her gas mask."Damn," Rebecca says."What's up," I ask, checking the outside."I'm running out of air," Rebecca answers. She pulls from behind her pack and starts to dig through it. She pulls out a

Chapter 19: Lincoln's Town

Rebecca:Stepping over a fallen tree trunk, I land on the ground and watch as dust kick up. The dust gets all over my mask, and I have to wipe the lens."Hey Drifter," I say as soon as I can see again. "Where the hell are we going?""To Lincoln's Town," Drifter replies, stopping to look back at Bailey and me."Lincoln's Town," Bailey repeats. "What's that, and why are we heading there?""Lincoln's Town is where someone I know lived," Drifter answers while walking."You have a friend," I ask."I never said Lincoln is a friend," Drifter says. "Lincoln is someone I know who lived in Lincoln's Town.""Lincoln lived in Lincoln's Town," Bailey asks."It's not the actual name of the town," Drifter yells, "I don't know what the hell the town's real name is. I only called it Lincoln's Town because that's where Lincoln lived. We ran into each other when I was scavenging around his town. He almost shot me, and he told me if he ever saw me again, he would shoot me.""And we're heading back there,

Chapter 20: Up

Tristan:"Up and at them," I say, pushing the package up through the hole in the ceiling."Here," Rebecca says, offering me her hand."Not yet," I say, looking around. Seeing a seat, I grab and push it until it's underneath the hole. Climbing onto it, I then grab Rebecca's hand but even with standing on the chair instead of jumping, I'm still too heavy. The package joins in and together, the two pull me up."How much do you weigh," the package asks, panting."It's not me," I answer, "It's the pack. I have a lot of canned foods. I have to consider there aren't any cafeterias out here.""Hey," Rebecca says, nudging her head. Immediately, the package and I hide behind some covers with Rebecca."So where exactly is this sniper nest," Rebecca asks."It's on the third floor," I answer, "Right outside the middle room.""Of course. The top floor. That means two more floors to go through.""How," the package asks, "I mean, I don't think we can take the stairs, and what the chances there's goin
