Mike's diary day 74 - This is war

* morning*
I woke up feeling exhausted Jack woke me up. He said that we gotta hurry to get back to the base before the maniac come back and kill both of us. I packed all of my equipment and rebandaged my wounds again.  The pain was unbearable but I have to make do. Jack cooked for breakfast, and while I wait, he went outside trying to scout for car could possibly be our right back to base. While he was out scouting for a car, I heard footsteps from the back of the house, I wasn't feeling well just yet, but I tried my best to grab my gun and checked what is up behind the house. When I opened the door there were two craze just wandering about trying to find some flesh to feast on. I quickly closed the door but one of them managed to held the door, and when they were about to come in, are here to gunshot and the craze we're down immediately. I looked outside the door and saw Jack in a pickup truck,  so I limped across the road with my bag on my back right into the trunk of the pickup truck.

*noon*
There was nothing much happening in the afternoon considering that we were only on the road for several hours without talking to each other.  I said thank you to Jack,  and his response was nothing.

* evening*
Jack and I arrived at base. I was escorted find it went right into the doctor's room to get checked up. Julie also went inside with me with her concerns look. I do not know where Jack when but I will try to find him right before dinner and talk about what he thought what's happening back in the suburbs.

* before dinner*
I found Jack in the armory room doing some tweaking to the silencers that he made. I asked him what he thought about that event, and when he was about to say something, we heard gunshot outside the base. At that moment, I thought to myself that the valors  are outside. Jack and I rushed outside and we saw Moses and Victor were already negotiating with 2 people. I walked towards them, and they said that they want Julie to come with them. I said no obviously, and I threatened them that there are enough of us to kill both of them, so right before the left of the said that there will be back tomorrow with a "present".

*night**
This is just great. Now everyone is busy doing their own stuff, and Jack does not remember what he was about to tell me. I immediately called for a meeting for us to do a vote whether we should fight and stay, or we run and leave them alone. The result was obvious that there are more people willing to defend the base. One more thing before we go to sleep, I said that it is better for us to attack to them earlier before they attack us because that way there will not be expecting us coming. Everyone agreed, and I will wake up tomorrow in the morning to plan out our offensive strategy. I really really hope that we will not lose another man. I hope everyone, especially Julie won't get hurt. God help me, HELP US!

Mike's Diary Day 73 - That's all I Could Remember

*Morning*

I passed out I don't know for how long. My body is all aching, can't feel my legs too. My back hurts like crazy, felt like its been carved by something. Sitting up was a struggle, lying down feels like hundreds of spikes thrusting up my back. I got no choice but to try to sit up while Jack was making breakfast. He told me what happened, and that's how I knew why my back and legs hurt like hell. He asked me what happened, so I told him what REALLY did happen. 2 nights ago I believe, when I was writing down my journal, I heard footsteps, well more like shuffles. I thought it was just going to be another craze, but when I was about to get up, I felt something stinging on my neck. I then woke up from that drugs, and was hung on a pool in a room, I saw my leg and what happened to it, but wasn't sure what she had done to my back. Her face was also covered with blood, though I couldn't really see since I was really busted up. She sent a final blow and I just passed out. Next thing I know is right now, that I woke up. He asked me if I could remember the features of that figure, and YES I'm pretty sure it was a woman. She was about 5"4 and thin build. I think, I wasn't sure since she caught me off guard and just stung me with a needle. Jack only nodded. I asked him what does that mean, but he only responded "I'll tell you when I'm sure myself, until I have a proof."

*Afternoon*

I was just basically trying to get as much rest as possible, while Jack is guarding the building for the moment. He wanted to go back to base ASAP, and I mean "As Soon As Possible because I don't like where this is is going" kind of thing, but I insisted because I was to busted up to even sit straight up. He agreed, and he told me that we should go back tomorrow for sure. The situation was tense, well Jack was really tense all the time. I then spoke up and told him that I remembered a phrase that she said before that final blow. She said "Sshh.. Do not watch." Then boom. At that moment, Jack's expression was blank. I didn't know what to say so I just drank and closed my eyes.

*Evening*

Jack was hunting near the building, for rabbit or such, I just woke up and fever was at its climax. I can't feel my body, it was like I was completely paralyzed. I tried my best to calm down until  Jack came back. He re-bandaged my wound because the old one was soaked with blood. He told me once again that after he cooked and after we finished dinner, I should sleep so that I can feel better again tomorrow and take off back to base as soon as possible. I know, because he really doesn't like what is about to happen next if we stay here any longer.

*Night*
The moon is right on top of us, and it was about 11 PM by approximation. He told me to sleep while again he guards the door. He notices me writing, and now he's back looking tensely outside the window. I don't know what he's thinking at the moment. I don't know what he's keeping away from me, but secrets can sometimes backfire and kill you or your comrades.

Mike's Diary Day 69 - My oh My, such shitty day.

*Last Night*

It was hell of a night I tell you that. After the second flare went off, I saw a horde coming towards our building. I was shocked (not really). Several minutes later, a man trying to run away from those craze, then I was like hey, why not help borther in need right? I started firing, and the others woke up and followed my lead. After a while, all I could see was nothing but an empty road, when all of the sudden, a huge explosion underneath us, then silence. After a waiting game that we have played, someone knocked on the door. I knew it was that man, but I asked anyways. It was Jack! Yes damn right he got my message. He was so busted up, so we decided to treat him ASAP. We immediately poured some alcohol onto his wound, yes, we were about to use that for a molotov, but oh well right.

*Morning*

I just woke up and with this diary I sit writing down some stuff. Everyone is grumpy, Jack is weak, now Julie is approaching towards me.

*10 minutes later*

Julie just told me some jokes because the others are too grumpy she said. See! What did I tell you. I'm thinking that maybe we should go back to base as soon as possible. I don't want the base to get attacksd by Valors before we got back, so I think I'm gonna clear down staira from craze. I'll ask the twins to come with me.

*Before going home*

Yeah, I've packed my shit yesterday, so I don't have to pack it again today. Just sitting on the edge of the roof watching craze pndering around down the road. Man, we're gonna be one of those things. Julie is packing her shit, one handed. What a champ (not trying tp be mean here). Jack seems exhausted still from last night, but I have to admit that that was hell of a run he did. Seems like everyone is ready to go now, I'm going to be on the motorbike of course, with Julie. This ride is awesome. Jack is in the truck with the others feelin' down I believe.

*Evening*

Man that was hell of a ride I'd say, ran over a few craze, and all that "fun" stuff. No, not what you're thinking. I'm sitting on a bench, looking towards the field, with my beer. Jack is soth the doctor, people are doing their business, and Julie just talked to me about random stuff. How her brother died. It's pretty fucked up, I tell you that. Man, it's good to have drama in life too right? Not too much though obviously. Oh, Jack is here.

* 20 minutes later *

Jack told me about his plan about saving the world, yeah right I told him. It's going to be useless, though it's a great idea, but we won't have enough resources to do it, no men strength, it'll bring death upon ourselves. Maybe yeah, after we know that people from other groups are willing to work together, after our faith in humanity has been restored, then yeah I'd do it. I mean there's nothing wrong with thinking big right? Jack seemed upset though when I said that. I changed the subject right away. I asked how Ann is doing, he didn't answer. He had a shock expression, but I didn't bother to ask what's wrong, though he's like my other brother now (well I save him he saves me kind of brother). Again, I changed the subject. I told him that I've been planning strategy to defend ourselves against the valors. He nodded in agreement, but he seemed to have doubts within it. I don't know why, he doesn't want anymore bloodshed maybe? I'm not too sure. I guessed he needed sometimes alone, so I left him, and proceeded to my room when I saw Moses. We talked about how me miss the stuff before this all happened. All I have now is him, I told him. He smiled, and said forgetting someone? I knew he meant Julie. He said that it's very weird how Julie and I can get along. I don't even know myself. Anyways, he left now, and I'm all alone. Julie's now asleep, tired I would say, and now I'm getting tired too.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Lexi, you helped me to make it this far. Thank you for that, oh and I met Julie long time ago, just thought you two would make great friends. Oh, it's true that you will always have something to fight, and die for.

Mike's diary Day 65 - Two Fuckers, We're Being Watched.

          I woke up beside Julie this morning, I saw her yawned
          "Good morning." She said. I smiled and looked at her 'hand'.
          "Do you wanna anything on that?" I asked.
          "Yes, anything would be good."
          "Knife?"
          "Sure"
          "Okay, we will get you patched up once we get back to base." I said to her.

I got up and checked the surroundings, while Julie was looting for some supplies. That morning was very sunny, breezy, all I could see UT the window was a torn flag waving in mid air, unfinished construction buildings, and some craze. Once Julie was done, I told her that we are going to a hospital near by to loot some medicine and other important stuff that we might be able to take.

            I walked outside with my iron sight aimed down, I checked if the coast is clear, and I signaled Julie to follow right behind me. We turned left back to the ally way, proceeded our way through, and turned left on the second house. The road was empty so I decided to me a run across. We did, I could see the hospital building clear from where we were at, and I couldn't wait to see what's inside. For another 35 minutes walk, we arrived on our destination. We went inside, not too many craze so far, so Julie and I handled it though sweat. We started looting the stuff, first aid kit, alcohol, bandage, painkillers, and many more. I then proceeded my way to the emergency room, and I opened the door, I was greeted by two guys. Yup, they're all dead now. I talked my way out.
             "Remember us?" One of them said
             "Nope, not a bit."
             "You destroyed our base."
             "Oh, the Valors?" I asked while taking few glances behind them.
             "Where is the girl?" The other asked
             "Or we'll kill you."
             "Oh you mean that one?" I gestured with my head to look back when Julie stabbed the guy repeatedly in the neck. I took my gun and fired at the other before he could slash Julie's other hand off. Once the gun fire went off, all I could hear was craze's scream and footsteps.
              "C'mon we gotta run." I said.
We ran away from the kitchen, trying to get out of the hospital, but we were blocked by a horde. We decided to find another way, but with no luck, we found dead ends. Our last hope was upstairs. I led the way, I pushed our way up and slashed some heads off along the way. We were terrified, I almost peed in my pants. We found a  door, I breached it open, waited for Julie to come, and closed it. I held the door with all my strength from the craze who were trying to get a piece of us. I quickly told Julie to find a metal to use the door. After a struggle, she found it, but it wasn't strong enough, so I decided to jam the door with anything we could find. We found chairs, sofas, and tables. Great, we're stuck now. Julie was breathing heavily, but was still able to throw out a smile or two. The sky is turning orange, it's getting dark, and we're stuck on the roof. Julie and I have to think of something tomorrow if we still wanna live for another day. In the other hand, I am worry that the other back at base are looking for us (well obviously). I hope everyone is still in one piece by the time we got back, especially Jack. One more thing, I hope the valors don't find their way to our base before we got back. They probably did, if they didn't, how the fuck did they know we were going to the hospital? Even more odd when they said
                  "Remember us?"

As if they were expecting our presence in the building. I am pretty sure, everyone (even the ones in our base) is being watched. Is it possible that they have an inside men, or women? I'm going to stop writing right here because Julie is telling me to eat.

Mike's Diary Day 59 - Oh no. Is this it? No!

          I got up very early in the morning, I woke the new guy up. He looked panic, and tired when I shook him from his sleep. I put my hand over his mouth so he didn't scream, well I also told him not to.
          "We're going to get you patched up okay?" I said to him calmly. He nodded as I looked through my bag for a knife and alcohol. I told him to bite on a cloth, and do the usual routine. Pour, stab, dig, wrap. He screamed like a dying pig. After we were done, the sun has already risen from its sleep. I woke everybody up and told them to pack up. I went into Julie's tent, and sat right beside her while the others wait outside.
            "You ready kiddo?"
            "Yes. Mike. Don't worry about me. I'm not, her. I can take care of myself." She responded. I was shocked.
             "What do you mean?"
             "I'm not Lexi. I can take care of my damn self." She said again.
I stood up, told her to pack up, then went outside. I packed my backpack, meds, painkillers, molotovs, Uzi, and a knife. I put my hoodie on, jeans, and we were off our ways towards the Valors. Jack was quietly guarding the new guy, the others to were quite. Jack told Victor to look after the wounded guy, and Jack approached me.
              "Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked
              "No."
              "Then?"
              "We'll see." I responded.
We walked for another hour or so, and here we are. 50 yards from the huge concrete gate. My palms were sweating,I was nervous. Very, especially in Julie's condition. A missing right hand. Oh this is just great. We walked until we're face to face to the gate's lock, then I called out.
               "Package is here!" I said while looking back to Julie.
The door opened, 3 guys came out. They were no taller than 5 foot 9. 
               "Great, your weapons are ready." Said one, while the others whispered to each other.
               "Bye guys." Julie said sadly while she hugged each one of us. I couldn't let go but I had to. Julie went in with the three guys, but I managed to held one of their hands and asked
                "Where are the other kids?" I asked
                "Inside."
                "How can I know for sure?" Everyone went silent. The three guys looked at each other. One of them told the other to get several kids from inside. I looked each of their faces. Little terrified faces, and then they went back in. It was Julie's turn, they way these guys handle these kids is suspicious if you ask me. When me and the group were about to walked away, one of the three guys said
                 "A little girl with one hand gives no pleasure." he chuckled.
                 "What the fuck did you just say?" Julie said, I froze while the group kept walking. I turned, walked up to them and said
                 "Yeah. What the fuck did you just say?"
The three guys looked at each other, and at an instant I disarmed my Uzi, and just fired at those three. They let go of Julie, she ran to me, the group was prepared, valors rushing out of their bases, we made a run. We run, and run until we saw a full sized van. I told Jack to hurry and hot wire the car. I told him to drive through highways, get away from that valors' base. I told him to drive us to the previous base. Great, I just started a fucking war. The valors fired, they missed, fired again, penetrated the door, I'm hit. I'm dizzy. I want to sleep. The others were yelling, Jack was saying something that I couldn't understand, Julie told me 'stay with her'. I couldn't bear the pain, this is it. This is the end for. is it? No! I have something to fight for. The group. Julie, Jess, Victor, Jack, Ann, that random dude. Oh no. I need a rest. Oh no I've gone unconscious.

Day 44 - "No Ride Home" - Mike's Diary

     I sat in the tent with Jessie, Victor, and Lexi, waiting for Jack doing his "business" with the raider outside. He peeked his head into tent and signaled me that he was done. I went outside just to looked at the woman died, laid on the street. I walked up to the body and dragged, then dumped it in the ravine right across. I walked back towards Jack and stood there

     "You're a fucking monster. Should've just put a bullet through her head. You didn't need to torture her." I said, and he said nothing. I told him to get the others and pack up everything, I folded the other tents, and said "We're Walking." Everyone looked very upset about the situation, but we can't waste any time. So off we go, we started walking along the road single file, Me, Victor, Lexi, Jessie, and Jack at the very back. I was wondering whether we have to cut through the forest or follow the road.

       "We take the road, more craze, but more chance of getting a new vehicle. We cut through the forest, safer, but no ride. Take a vote." I said. Jessie, and Jack voted forest but the three of us voted the road, so we continued with our journey.

        4 hours have passed, and we finally found an abandoned RV, and I decided to open a camp there and to stay for the night. I told Jack to keep a look out and get on top of the RV, and Victor keep a look out on the ground while the rest of us are taking a break inside the tents. I'm writing this journal, the night is silence, no wind, no signs of life, and no conversation was made for the rest of the day. The birds, crows, gawks, then it the night stays silent once again.

11:36 PM

Victor woke me and Lexi up, "we're almost there" he said, so we walked, we were so exhausted last night, crazy shit happened too. We've been walking for another hour now and finally we met a huge gate and there it is. "Are u sure this is it?" Said Lexi, "yeah it says "REBELS" on the wall" I responded. We knocked on the door but no one answered, I yelled my brother's name and nothing responded, I'm too tired for this shit. I was about to give up but then someone opened the door.  "Little brotha." I said, he hugged me and welcomed us really well. "You're alive. And victor, and who is this?" My brother said, "Lexi." She said. "Welcome to the rebels." He said, "alrite guys i gotta go back now" said victor, "where? Stay with us" said my brother, "my base." Victor said. They talked andthey figured  something out, Victor's group decided to join the rebels too. This place is a blessing, food, clothes, running water, electricity. I think Lexi and I will be staying here until we decided to do something else with our lives.

Day 22, July 19th 2013 - New Strategy

We decided to go the next morning, I got my shit ready, so were Lexi and Victor. We were in foot for the whole day, good thing is we didn't have to stop for foods or weapons since we have plenty. We only walked for 5-10 minutes on the road then Victor lead us down the sewers. It smelt bad and there were shitload of craze. We walked and walked and walked, then we saw a cutter. I didn't have any molotovs left and that was the only way to get to the rebels. So we made a strategy. One distracts and the others attack it's head with sharp weapons and so on, we back up every 2 stabs landed. I was first up, I ran infront of the cutter and the others waited, then ZAP, ZAP. Two stabs by Lexi and Victor. We ran and hid behind a wall, this time is Lexi's turn. "Be fucking careful." I said, "Don't worry old man." She respoded. She ran towards it and Victor and I waited, then ZAPS. We took it down, well it wasn't that hard after all.we continued our journey but then the way was blocked by these huge rocks. I boosted Lexi up and told her to get something for Victor and I to get up. She got a rope, so I told her to attach it to something heavy so we could climb the wall. And we did. Now we gotta walk for another 4-5 hours or so to get to the rebels. Ya.. Crazy eh? We stopped several times but this time we stopped for goods. Everyone's tired and now is the perfect time to get some rest.

Day 21, July 18th 2013 - We're Strong in Numbers

We heard a cough, he's woken up from his sleep. He didn't recognize me at first so he was panicked. I held him down and looked them in the eyes, then he calmed down "Mike? Holy shit man." He said, "ye. Where's Victor?" I said, "Hunting, let's go to the main base." He responded. We walked and I introduced Lexi, Greg and Jess. When we arrived, their base was blessed with all kind goods, weapons, food, clothes, and other stuff. I saw Victor and ran directly at him, "holy shit you're alive, not in the best shape but you're alive." He said to me. I said where my brother is and he said that he joined the rebels. I was shocked, I asked him where the rebel's base is and he said that he doesn't know what the area or city called but he knows where it is. I told Jess, Greg, and Lexi to stay at my cousin's base because it is the safest place to be at right now. But of course "I am not fucking staying here Mike, I'm going with you." Lexi said "Whoa who's this kid Mike?" My cousin said, "Just some kid I found" I said, "some kid?" Lexi said, she looked upset now but she still insisted to go with me. So there are only going to be 3 people who are going after my brother, my cousin, Lexi, and I. My cousin said we should take what we need for the journey and he said we're going to be on foot because cars or horses ain't gonna cut it. We decided to go the next day so in the meanwhile, we had to clear the roads. They're full of craze stuck in the sharpened bamboos so we had to kill them and threw them. We also went to some store to loot, there were shitload of craze but we managed we were strong in numbers. We were too exhausted that day so we decided to gather the scavenged items and sorted them out. We got food, weapons, and meds. It was awesome, such an easy day, I wish everyone would go after my brother with me because we're unbreakable together. We were to tired so we decided to take a rest at my cousin's base for another night.

Day 20, July 17th 2013 - That You Victor?

I succeeded. I hot wired a car and we were up and going west. We just entered a border to Manitoba when I saw a smoke, more like a signal that there are survivors still. Victor? I said to myself. "What makes you so sure Mike?" Lexi said, "I'm not." We still had another hour to get to the smoke, pretty far. We got into a suburb, it was barricaded with sharpened bamboos, barbed wires and all that. There were signs, "Raiders Back the FUCK off." And stuff like that. But we decided to go in anyways. We were walking and then BOOM, a loud bang was heard. We were being shot at by some crazy dude. We hid in a house and waited, he came up to the house, saw me only, walked up to me with his gun then Lexi gave him a good hit in the head from the back. "Good fucking job kid." I said. We opened his gas mask, and there he was, Victor's friend Danny. I know him, if he's here that means Victor is here. We patched him up and laid him down and till now we're still waiting for victor. I know he's alive, don't know where, but he's alive.

Day 18, July 14th 2013 - Easy Today.

12:32 AM

We decided to gather everything we could today and continue for our journey. We as usual looted some houses and stores for food or weapons. Or even survivors, "Can you whistle?" She said, "well that was random, and yeah. Why?" I said, "well I can't." She kept bothering me the whole day by doing that weird blowing sound that people make when they can't whistle properly. After a long walk we decided to stop at some drugstore and went in. When we were inside boom, craze of course, what else do you expect? A cute fucking puppy? I only wish. "Try your bow and arrow. Right in the head." I said, and she did it ! One shot thats all she took. I nudged her head proudly, "good job kiddo." Then I went and took the other 2 out. I asked her to wait for me outside while I searched the drugstore, nothing was there, so we decided to continue the long walk. "Do you know anything about the rebels?" I said, "yeah my parents were in it. Don't even bother to ask where they at. Last time I saw them, they were heading to the military base in Quebec." She responded. I saw a smoke, so we followed. We went to some small campsite but no one was there, I was about to go in but Lexi convinced me not to and just watch the camp from several distance, so we did. We waited there for so long, but no one came so we decided go into this tree. Right, inside it, theres room for two, so we think we're going to spend the night there. Today was an easy day for us, and Lexi proved me she can "kinda" handle herself.

Day 17, July 13th 2013 - She's a Pretty Good Shot !

1:21 AM

I woke up this morning, soup was on my side, water, and some tylenols. I looked around me, barbwires everywhere. "LEXI?" I yelled, but no answers. I'm starting to get worried, I try to stand up and walk, though I'm still limping. I yelled her name once again. God, where are you kiddo?. I walk outside with my shotgun, and follow the footsteps. Fuck, a craze, so I walked around it, cuz I don't think I could take him in this condition. The footsteps led me to an alley way, so I followed. When I walked out the alley way, a fucking arrow went right in front of my god damn nose. "Holy fuck." I aimed my shotgun at her. "Mike! She yelled." She said "I'm sorry I thought you were something else. Holy shit." She ran up to me and hugged me. "I was so scared Mike." Said she. "I know Lexi, I know." I said. I asked her how did she find the bow and arrow, but then she responded "why didn't you tell me you HAD a bow and arrows?" , fair enough I guess, "who taught you how to use it?" I said, "myself.", "Let me see?", "sure." She holds the bow, puts the arrow on the string, pulls it, and lets go, of course she missed. "Fuck." She said, "haha. You suck.", "thanks." Se responded. "Here." I said, I took the bow and arrow and I fired it, "Bulls eye." Right on target. "Here." I decided to teach her how to use it properly, she deserves it. "Your welcome." She said, "for what?", "drugs, food, taking care of you. I almost got my ass eaten by those fuckers.", "Thanks." I said. "Hold the bow. STRAIGHT.", "geez, cranky much." She said. "Yeah whatever,  put the arrow, on the left side of the bow until you hear a click." *click* "very good, now aim but not like aiming guns. Close your right eye instead of your left. And now two fingers on top of the tip of the arrow on the string and one under it.", I held her arms so it stays straight."Straight." I said. "Okay okay!", "now pull the string, keep your elbow points upwards and pull until your thumb touches the bottom of your chin, and when let go, keep your holding arm straight still or you're gonna make the arrow flies somewhere else.", I waited "release when ready." She did it, bulls eye, it went through the sand bag. "Good job Lexi", "thanks ! High five!" She said. Yeah I gave her that one. "Thanks Mike.",  no problem.", "about your brother, what should we do after we found him?", "We go and join the government's forces." We walked back to the garage. "What if they're all dead?", "I don't know Lexi, let's hope not." I said. We decided to take a break from that practice and I think I'm ready to go tomorrow. Who knows what happened to Greg and Jess, hopefully they're still alive. I decided to eat my soup and drank some meds. Lexi is now drawing or writing who knows what. I'm proud of her.

Day 15, July 11th 2013 - Teamwork Remember?

11:13 PM

"We're out of food, sorry guys. We should be divided into groups and loot these buildings." I said while putting the map of surroundings. "Oh man, Mike? When did you draw this? How do you know these buildings?" Lexi said. "Umm, reasons." I said, "Did you go alone man? What the fuck." I divided the group, Lexi with Jess since she isn't fully patched up. And I go with Greg. "Keep her safe." I whispered to Jess. They both went to the mini stores and we went to the sports store and some barber shop. "How old are you Greg?" I asked, "7" said he. "Your sister?", "She's 16." He responded, we looted some scissors, I got a hockey stick and a helmet, some baseballs and some football armour. I also got a bow and some arrows, I thought perhaps Jess could use this when those fuckers are chasing after us. After we got what we needed, we went back to the house and met up together. When I saw Lexi's face, "You're smiling, why? Tell me some good news Lex." I said. She didn't say anything and she dropped the bag full of bottled water and canned food and canned fruits. "Holy mama, that's some good shit." I said, then Jess punched me in the arm, "Oucchhh what was that for?", "Don't swear in front of Greg." She said. We decided to stay for a little while and eat some of the stuff that those two found. I showed them the bow and arrow and let Jess uses it. Though she needs practice, that's why I'll teach her sometimes this week. I have some skills, Phys. Ed experience. We went out for some more stuff and we accidentally encountered with some craze, there were too many of them. We decided to run, we found a huge wall leads to the other side, I boosted Jess, then Greg, then I boosted Lexi up, when I was about to climb the wall, I fell and sprained my ankle. I stood up an couldn't climb so I decided to run to towards the road, I fell again, then someone boosted me up and we run. It was Lexi. "Teamwork remember? I'm not fucking leaving without you." She said. We kept running, well I was limping. Then we found a garage door just barely half opened. I lifted the door so Lexi could put something underneath to hold it so we both could go in. We went in and closed the door. Then I passed out.

Day 13, July 9th 2013 - Possible Survivors

11:35 PM

We found a treehouse and we are in it now. This morning, I woke up early and serve Lexi some breakfast, "smells so fucking good." Said she in sleepy tone. She just woke up. "You talked in your sleep, I hate bad dreams too." I said. "Hey you did good yesterday, saved my ass couple of times." I said, "yeah teamwork !" She put her hand up as if wishing for a high five. So I gave her that. We got up and planning on going deep into the suburbs. We encounter some more craze, I took some of them out, choked it. We went into a gun shop and guess what? We found a katana, not bad I guess. But it's fucking bad that people already took the guns and ammunitions. Lexi looted some gear that we could probably use for aid kit or some sort, she also found stuff that I could use to modify my baseball bat a little bit. Today was a success but our food source is thinning out. We need some more food so we decided to check out the supermarket, candy, chocolate, chips, and some bottle water. We made a deal, she brings all the food, I'll bring the gears. She's pretty damn tough, I'm telling you that much. She asked me what I wanted to be, I said dance. I'm a pretty good dancer I must say, not mean to be brag but yeah. She told me to teach her some moves but I couldn't. "C'mon man, dance for me." Said she, "yeah. Haha. You wish." I said. We walked outside and we heard some noise. Not craze, it's someone speaking through a walkie talkie. We scattered around the street and found the walkie talkie. We decided to respond, and ask where the person with the other talkie might be at. She said that she's with her little brother in a house with a tree house. We wondered for hours and then "Mike look !" Lexi spotted the tree house.", "Hood job kiddo." We walked towards it but the house is over run. Maybe that's why these guys want us to come. To help them clear the path. I didn't trust them at first but Lexi convinced me. She peeked through the fence and said the girl has a little brother. So we decided to go and get them. On the way there, there was a horde of these fuckers coming from behind us. So without any hesitation I boosted Lexi up the fence, I climbed it and I told Lexi that we should get on that treehouse, and that's how we ended up here. We just keep talking, and I'm trying really hard to keep them calm. It's midnight and I told them to find somewhere to hide and sleep until Lexi and I managed to get to them. Tomorrow is going to be tough for me and Lexi. But I trust her, she seems like she can handle herself better now that she took out a guy with a single bullet the other day.
