"She went to help you"A man says holding a rifle as he slowly turns toward you guys.
"Now she's gone"He says with no emotion,
"I'm sure they'll send someone soon."A lady says softly and holds her hands in a soft hold.
" No, the only thing that will happen soon is we're all gonna die soon." The guy says and keeps holding his rifle. " This has a classic bio-warfare signature." He turns the news on and then they all begin listening.
"We're so fucking fucked."The tall guy says and keeps his arms folded.
"My crew saw one."Tom says and everyone turns around and says' what' in confusion.
"One minute we were digging a foundation and then my contractor just lies down right in front of them bulldozer and then my operator tips the ring into the ditch and snaps his own neck."Tom says and Cheryl lets out a sad sound, along with some others with with shock.
You sigh and decide to walk around the house, trying to call your mom somehow but you don't have any service. You bite your lip and hear some walk next to you.
"Maybe you should sit down, are you feeling okay?"The young boy says trying to set you in a chair, figuring out a way to help you somehow.
"No no, i'm fine."You say and he nods his head assuringly.
"Understood understood, understood, "He nods his head and then you begin talking, tears trembling down yours cheeks.
"She was just driving."Y/n starts and puts a hand over her mouth quickly before pulling it off." She saw something and the car flipped over and then she got out, looked at me, and then stepped in the street and got hit by a bus."You say softly and boy softly looks at you.
"She wouldn't do that, she isn't suicidal at all"You wipe your tears and then look at the boy, close to your age.
"What's your name"Y/n says gently and then looks up at him.
"Zach."He says"Zach Herron." You smile at him and then nod your head.
"I'm Y/n L/n"Y/n says back to him, giving another smile through her teared up eyes.
About a few hours later, everyone is getting ready for bed.
•••
24 hours on the river.
While you're rowing the boat, you let out some shivering sighs as the cold air begins going against your skin, right through your coat as you and your little brother and sister sit there silently. A few minutes later your brother and sister are asleep under the greenish blanket as you quietly crawl under it and cover your cheek with the palm of your hand, you open the box full of 3 birds and give them some water , as the small droplets of water leave your fingers and give them some.
You pull out your walkie talkie speaking into it" quietly, not waking your siblings up." Hello, can anyone hear me?"You speak into the talkie, getting no response except some rumbling sounds.
•••
Everyone in the household is already woken up and downstairs listening to the news.Suddenly, you guys hear a loud knock on the door and everyone looks toward it, Tom stands up and goes right to the door putting his ear against it, everyone standing behind him and you hold a shotgun in your hand, telling Tom not to open it. Malorie raises an eyebrow and then stands by Charlie.
"Uh hello, is anyone there?"Tom says and waits for a response.
The women says" Yes, Hello?"
"Tom, you're making a big mistake."Douglas says and someone sh's him.
"Hello, yes. My name is Olympia I need help please"She says crying out.
"Don't open the damn door!"Douglas says and then Tom says" I'm gonna open the open the door" He says and Douglas lets out a sigh.
You cock the gun 3 times and everyone lets out a ' woah' at different times.
"Move"You tell Douglas and he slowly moves out the way." Open it" Y/n says again and points it toward the door waiting for Tom to open it, as Zach stands beside you.
"There should be two lamps outside each door, Tom's gonna hand you a blanket"Zach says and walks next to him, speaking loud enough for Olympia to ear.
Zach hands Tom the blanks and slowly slides it under the door, lifting it up somehow and she slowly grabs it."Let me know when you get it"Tom says and the lady shakily says" I got it."She says again and everyone covers their eyes or faces away, except you.
"Y/n, cover your eyes" Zach says and looks toward you. You sigh and keep holding the gun toward the door slowly closing your eyes and facing away from the door.
Tom opens the door slowly and covers his eyes letting the lady in as she has a silk pink blindfold on.
Charlie looks at the women and then squints his eyes looking closely" are you pregnant?" He asks and she nods" October 1st"She says softly and then looks at Malorie" What about you?" Olympia asks.
"Uh- uhm, End of September "Malorie says softly.
As you guys head upstairs helping Greg the laptop camera's and the one girl ties his hand to the chair.
"I hope you know what you're doing, You and your husband, You're good people. It- It wasn't like that"Douglas says and Greg has a soft knowing smile on his face as everyone walks out but Greg stops Tom in his tracks
"Oh Tom, I need the remote"Greg says and Tom nods his head grabbing it and handing it to him" There ya go, buddy"Tom says and walks out the room. Everyone else downstairs and chatting, Douglas guarding the inside of the house with his shotgun.
You guys hear some rumbling and you look up at the ceiling, everyone rushing upstairs and saying Greg's name, opening the door and immediately shielding their eyes. Grey moves around in his chair rapidly and falls over, cracking his head against a table as blood splattering everywhere. You crawl to Greg and Zach steps onto the laptop making sure they can open their eyes again.
"It's safe, open your eyes again guys!"Tom says aloud and you look at Greg, almost bursting into tears.
You stand back and Zach stands beside you as your guys hand touches, slowly pulling away from each other.
Dun- DUN- DUUN! another cliffhanger.💗
