In The End
How Did You Survive?
My name is Felicity, Flick for short, I’m 19 years old. I have brown, black and red hair and my eyes are crystal blue. It had been 14 months since the zombie apocalypse began. The only person I had left was my brother Kellin. We had sheltered in an abandoned warehouse, waiting for our parents and family to return. They still haven’t come back three months on. How we had lasted this long without them remained a mystery.
“Hey Flick, I’m going to get some supplies. You coming?”
“Yeah, just gimme a sec.” I said while I pulled on my ruined converses and grabbed my broken chair leg which I used as a weapon. “Let’s go.”
We walked out of the warehouse, only to see about four zombies walking towards us. I saw Kellin pull out the gun that he had taken from our parents before they disappeared and shoot them cleanly between the eyes. The good thing about Kellin shooting the gun is that he never misses. Then again I suppose it’s not so good if he goes insane and goes on a rampage. We walked for about ten minutes before we heard the sound of muffled shouts coming from the inside of another abandoned building.
“Can you hear that or is it just me?” I asked while tilting my head.
“I can hear something.” He replied. “Let’s go check it out.”
I followed Kellin in to the building. The shouting was getting louder and more intense. We walked up the stairs until we reached the top floor of the building. The shouting was even louder here but there was no one around. We had a look round and found nothing unusual apart from another door leading in to a cupboard. I slowly walked over to the cupboard and put my ear to the door. I could hear a muffled crying sound and then another shout which caused me to almost go deaf because I was so close to whoever or whatever was in there.
“Kellin, over here.” I said while signalling to the door. He walked over slowly and put his ear to the door to.
“There’s defiantly people in there.” He said while stepping away from the door. He gave me the you can open it look. I carefully turned the door handle and opened the door. I peered in to the room. I saw Kellin’s mouth fall open in surprise. Andy Biersack, Ashley Purdy, Christian Coma, Jake Pitts and Jinxx were all sat on the floor huddled together in one corner of the room. As soon as the door opened they all jumped up off the floor revealing a gun that Jinxx was holding and pointing at the door.
“Wait, don’t shoot.” I exclaimed with a hint of panic in my voice. I saw him lower the gun. He looked terrified, they all did. That was when Kellin appeared at my side.
“Sorry.” He said, his voice was shaky. “I guess were just a bit jumpy.”
“I can tell.” I smiled, relaxing slightly now knowing that Jinxx wasn’t going to kill me. “How long have you guys been in here?”
“About a week, the zombies were chasing us so we ran and hid in here.” I saw all of them relax a little bit.
“So what’s your name? Andy asked. He was visibly shaking.
“I’m Flick and this is Kellin.” I saw them nod. “So are you planning on hiding in that cupboard for the rest of your lives or do you want to come and join us? They all glance round at each other. I could sense there insecurity.
“We’ll come and tag along with you guys, if you don’t mind. Andy said.
“I wouldn’t have asked if I did.” I replied cheekily. There was something about Andy that made me curious. Maybe it was his eyes. They were pretty similar to mine. I don’t know. “We were just on our way to get some supplies, come on.”
We all made our way downstairs to the ground floor; luckily there were no zombies so we continued our journey to Best Buy. We got there just in time; as soon as we got in to the shop some zombies came around the corner and tried to get in to the shop.
“Ok, so what are we looking for?” Ashley asked. That was the first time I’d heard him speak.
“Umm, Blankets, Food, Clothes, just anything you can carry.” I replied. We started to walk around the shop in pairs, it was safer that way, me and Kellin found that out the hard way, About a year ago we were in Target, we had split up to look for different stuff, I was just making my way back to Kellin when a zombie jumped me and pinned me to the ground. Thank God that Kellin was only down the next isle or I would have gotten bitten.
About an hour later we all made our way to the back exit in the shop. “We need to get out of here quickly and quietly so we don’t attract any attention from the zombies. Everyone nodded as I opened the door. We all walked in silence back to the warehouse until we safely inside with all of the doors locked.
“I’ll be honest I didn’t think all of us would make it here.” Ashley said. I smirked a little at his remark.
“Ashley, you underestimate us. I said while smiling just so he knew I was only joking.
“Where should we put all of this stuff?” I heard Andy say.
“Umm, drop the blankets where ever, but put the rest of the stuff in one of the corners.” I replied while watching him walk over to one of the corners.
“Hey Kellin, any idea what the time is?” I shout across the room to him.
“Almost 10 at night.” He shouted back.
“Fuck, that’s not good.” I mumbled.
“Hey Flick, I’m going to get some supplies. You coming?”
“Yeah, just gimme a sec.” I said while I pulled on my ruined converses and grabbed my broken chair leg which I used as a weapon. “Let’s go.”
