Emma was sneaking threw the alleys away from the survivor caravan she was in. She was determined to show she can carry her own wait. She was not going to stand for everyone treating her like a baby any longer. So she grabbed her bow and what arrows she had left and set out to hunt and get food for everyone and show them all!
As Emma came across some deer she readied her bow and arrow, she was very good with them, never missing the mark as she practiced every day being born into a world of the undead. Just as she was about to shoot something caught her eye, a small horde of 5 zombies, all but one had helmets and they were all holding weapons like axes and machetes. "Smart zombies!" she whispered to herself as she hid behind some trash cans. Smart zombies were the reason that she was in a caravan. Back a few years ago everyone thought that there were only one type of zombie, mindless walking flesh eaters, not knowing that there were different classes so they made wood walls around there survivor post not knowing that in time zombies just smart enough to use weapons wold use axes to chop there way threw and flood the streets killing most of the inhabitants. As fare as anyone knew she and her friends were the only survivors of that incident.
Emma knew that with only 2 arrows left she should just sit and wait for them to start eating then get out of there. As most of them crouched down to eat she tensed up as the big one that showed no signs of rot looked around. "Had it sensed me?!" she thought. in there travels they encountered a class of zombies that did not rot. the older ones that played games allot and worked on the laptops in the van called them Boss zombies and she knew that she never wanted to face one.
As it crouched down to eat with its horde she slowly got up and backed up slowly when the top of her bow hit a bottle and it shattered against the ground and they all looked up at her.
**************************************************************************** *********
As you look up you see a small 9 year old girl looking back shaking with fear. She had black hair and wore old worn out pants and a shirt riddled with holes and shoos held together with duck tape.
Just then your horde stood up weapons clinched in there fists and the girl ran for it. You ordered your horde to get back to there food having to whip the order into a few of them. Just as you were about to get back down to eat you hear a young girl scream.
**************************************************************************** ***************
Emma ran with all her might to get away. Not going back to the others and lead it to them when she looked back to see if the boss zombie was following her she fell into a hole and twisted her ankle and she held in her crying in fear that something will hear her. Suddenly she herd a growling sound and looked up at a undead lion with the flesh around its mouth and across its side exposing its ribs gone and one of its eyes dangling from its face. She screamed as it slowly climbed down into the pit with her and moved toward her. She grabbed for her bow and arrows only to find that the bow was broken. She closed her eyes as it was about to pounce when she herd a sound like chains swinging, the snapping of bones, and the undead lion giving out a quick screech when all wen't quiet. She looked up to find that it was gone and a chain came down and she herd a voice say "Grab it!" She grabbed it tight happy to have been saved and called up "I've got it! pull me up!"
**************************************************************************** *****************
You ran as fast as you could to the girl. with memories of being alive you can't let someone die if you can help it. you came to a pit and looked down at that girl about to be pounced by a lion and you quickly whipped your right chain around its neck and pulled and it flew up as you grabbed it in the air and smashed its head on the ground. You quickly unwrapped your chain from its neck and tossed it over the side telling her to grab on and pulled up when she told you she had. As you pulled her up you see her looking at you with horror in her eyes as you grab her and set her down on the ground and she quickly limped away. but before she terned the corner she stopped resting her arm against a wall as she terns to look at you for a moment then looks around for a moment then back to you. "C-c-can y-you t-talk? she asked still afraid. "Yes" you simply reply. "Were you saving me?" she asked, you simply nod your answer. She seemed to have calmed down some but still seemed uneasy as she asked "Why?"
#1 you tell her and to your surprise you can talk just fine! Whatever was wrong must have only needed time to heal.
#2 you try to tell her but lose your voice.
#3 before you can reply a search party from Emma's caravan showed up looking for her.
