-Chapter 2-
-NOTE-
This story will now take place in d**k’s 1st point of view.
I awoke by the dogs freakin barking. My eyes felt really heavy. I look out the window to notice that its day time. And again, Its all foggy. A rush fell over me as I awoke Beatrice. “Hey! Wake up!” I said as I shook her. Beatrice looked at me and her dog very tiredly. So I saw that she got up and started to pack up. So I started to pack up as well. So we both walked out of the house with our guns pointed in every direction in case there were a few extra flesh-eaters. But so far the coast was clear. As we walked out of the poorly structured house, She asked me “Where did you get that funny shaped scar on your left arm”? It was when I should have left her behind, but I needed a companion to help me out. And so I could help her out also. After all I’m not THAT bad. Well at least I think I’m not. Anyway. We were out of the house and we were at the side of the forest. Practically it’s the same spot I was at before I entered. Us two were walking for a bit until we noticed an abandoned wrecked up city. It looked like hell just pissed all over it. Heh. But what else is new about us stupid Americans. As we were walking in this city we went in the main street. I looked around and notice this is practically like new york………except its all ruined and burned. I have no idea what I was thinking going In here. But this is the quickest way to Texas. I was checking out a Sign to see what city this was. But the sign was too messed up to read. I turned over to see that Beatrice isn’t any better in how lost we were. I pulled out a map and the compass to see if we were going the right direction. And we were. I needed to check to see if this city has any useful supplies while were here but we had to keep moving. Beatrice shouted my name “d**k!”. I turned my head to look at her as quick as I could. I saw that Beatrice had her gun pointed at something in the sky. And her dog was barking in the up direction also. I looked up and I didn’t ******** believe what I saw. I saw eagles with red splotches in them and their wings were practically bone. I immediately knew that these birds where infected. There were about 9 of them and they were very large. I pulled out my sawed-off double barreled shotgun as Beatrice was already trying to shoot them. Then I joined her in firing. We were missing like ********. That is until we heard a loud gunfire and one of them just fell out of the sky. We looked in the direction the noise was coming from until there was another gunfire. We heard someone yell “HEY!! OVER HERE!!”. I saw which direction of his voice came from at least. I saw that someone was in a car parking building waving to us and shootin at the same time. So I looked at the flock and the first thing I look at them, one of them is diving down toward me to attack. When it was in range I quickly brought out one of my machete and jumped to the side to counter and cut its head off as its headless body fell on the ground. I looked at Beatrice to see how shes doing and at my surprise about 4 was going to attack for her and 1 was gonna attack her dog. I saw the 4 undead eagles were closing in on Beatrice and I yelled for her “BEATRICE!!” But then all she ignored me cause I think she already knew did was bring out two of her knives and cut 2 heads off at the same time and she backfliped kicked two of their heads off at the same time. And I saw that her dog was already chewing on one of the dead birds on the ground. Then I thought to myself “wow”. So I looked up and saw that there weren’t any left. So this boy who was sniping was yelling at us to tell us to go inside this car parking building. So we practically walked over to the entrance and then he yelled from the celing: “Woah! Look out for that trap man!” Beatrice was about to walk in until he said that. She asked “Why?”. So I looked around at this entrance to see that there is no trap but there is only darkness. Then this huge metal blade came from the Top and slit down to the bottom like a guillotine. And This young man said “That one”. So She goes inside and so do I. We both step around the metal blade and look around to see that there is no cars around. So this boy from the top level comes down to the bottom level where we are. Then this young boy in his 20’s came out of the bushes holding a sniper rifle. He is 6’5 in height with white skin. Has a skin tight black tangtop. On his body he has green tribal markings, probably tattoos. On his legs he has dark blue baggy pants and on his feet he has black dress shoes. And on his head he has this dress hat and his arms are very muscular. “Who are you?” d**k asked the young man. “Hm?” The boy looks at d**k and Beatrice. “Well my name is Ricky sir. Ricky Bobby.” The boy said as he tiped his hat down and and bowed while holding the sniper with the other hand. “Well what are you doing here?” d**k asked. “This is practically my home sir. Beatrice said as she was noticing his features and smiling. Beatrice’s dog started to growl at him cause he dosen’t know him. I saw that Beatrice bent down to say “Its ok boy. Hes on our side.” She looked at him and said quietly. “I hope….” I looked back at this boy and asked him “Do you think we can stay here? This boy sighed and rubbed his neck. He took a while to think about it until finally he said “Ok you guys can stay. If it wasn’t for her.” He said as he looked at Beatrice. “Well what can you do boy?!” I asked him. “Well I’m a damn good sniper sir. And as you can also see. I’m good when it comes to working with metal and traps.” He said as he gave a signal for us to follow him to the roof. I was the last one out of the roof so I closed the door last. I looked around as saw he had a that thing in which you sharp blades on. A sniper stand with a sniper on it. And everthing else is stuff he needs essential to live. He also had a barrel with fire in it to keep a light. I sat in one of the 5 chairs he had up here. I decided its time to take a break again. So I got aquanted with this young fellow. I noticed the other two sat down as well. “So do you have any beer up here?” I asked. Right when I asked that he reached in his coller and tossed me a rolling rock beer bottle. “Its all I got mister”. He said But I looked at it and opened it up and “This is my fav kind of beer son! Thanks”. So I Looked at Beatrice and she then asked leaned forward in the chair and asked him “How have you been surviving all this time?”. So as I took a big gulp of this delicious beer and heard ricky bobby say “Oh you know. Just hanging out here and exploring this city. This city is practically my oyster. Well then of course theres that zombie factor in there. But thanks to my traps I’ve been surviving. And I think I’ll be in here for a long time.” I thought that this young man might be a little lucky to have survived on his own like this. But I never saw anything. I also looked at him and saw that he had lighten a cigar and smoked it not to long ago. Ricky blew a puff of smoke out and said “So where are you guys headin?” Beatrice answered “We are going to a safe city in texas that promises no zombies, lots of food food and shelter and all that”. I leaned forward in the chair and told him “You know we could use some help. A sniper would be damn useful you know.” This ricky bobby leaned back in his chair and looked up in the air. He blew another cloud of smoke and said “No. I can’t leave this place. I don’t want to risk dying man.” I told him “Well what do you have to lose? I mean who are you gonna be with?” As I told him that he was nodding his head yes. So ricky said “Ok man. Your right. Well first lets stay the night here. We need our rest.” I nodded and he started to prepare camp. But Beatrice quickly asked “Do you have a bathroom?” Ricky nodded and said 3rd floor around the back. So Beatrice went out the door and went to wherever he said to. So I sat back and looked at him pulling out tents. I took another big gulp of beer and ricky asked me “Dude that’s an incredible piece of a** man.” I took the beer off my lips and gave him a weird look and said “What do you want to tap young man?” He was done setting up and the first tent and turned around to look at me and said “Mabye old man………..mabye.” I chuckled and said “Your slow son. If I was younger I would have already had her.” I said as I looked up and grinned. We both laughed and I had a sudden flash back of me drinking with my old crew back then. But I got back to reality. I realized that I needed to know what we were doing. So I got a little serious. I put my head back down to see that hes setting up a second tent and told him “So do you know if there are any cars nearby?” I saw he was almost done with the second tent and he sighed and said “No.” I sighed and realized is that we are gonna walk again. So I looked at beatrices dog which was right next to where she was sittin. I was startin to get really tired. I wanted to sleep really bad so I asked Ricky “Are those tents ready yet? I need to sleep.” I saw simple turned around and looked at me and he said “Well not all 3 of them but you can sleep in that one.” He pointed to the tent he made first. So I Walked inside the tent and layed down on the mattress butt-first. I put the beer down and Yawned. So I layed down completely down to put the blankets over me. I heard simple say “Night old man…………its gonna be a big day tomorrow. I kept my eyes closed to only see black and said “Yep……night”. I really didn’t want to talk but I said what I could with the last of my strength. I fell asleep to the sound of a door opening and closing. Its probably Beatrice coming back from the bathroom. The last think I thought of before I went to bed was the idea of me going back in time and changing everthing……….
