Mike's Diary Day 36 Sept 18th - New Recruit Jack

I couldn't sleep last night, I was hunted by an unpleasant feeling; It felt like another storm of raids are going to hit our base. Off I go outside our base, the breeze, the smells of grass, and the full moon makes everything so gloomy and dead. I figured that we are low on painkillers and first aid kits, so off I go to the closest pharmacy I could find. I'm going alone, because everyone is asleep; Halfway across the bridge, I heard screams from the main entrance of the city, without thinking any longer I rushed to where the source of the noise comes from. I saw a group of people, 2 guys 1 girl were being cornered by these fuckers. I didn't know what to do, but then I remember that I brought some molotovs along with me. I light them up, then threw it to the crowds; I saw a guy running towards me, sadly only him who survived in this horrible night. He said "Thank you, name is Jack", "I'm Mike, now come help me gather some painkillers. I need you to guard the door.". This was supposed to be a one man mission, but then it became 2. Gathered some stuff, I was distracted by all of these drugs that I need to take when suddenly the door bursts open. "Shit! Run!" Jack said, we were overran by craze and cutters so I took off with him through the back door; It was a close call, thank you to him the new recruit.

Day 12, July 8th 2013 - Her First Kill.

12:16 AM

"Hey kiddo, wake up." I said. "I'm sorry mike." Said she, "About what?" I said, "About your little sister, I'm sorry that I stole the letter from Dion to you too." I guess we can never escape from the past. We ate, we didn't talk, just ate. The craze and the cutters were still outside, so I made a plan. I distracted the the craze and cutters, bait them and I told Lexi to throw both molotov when I give her a signal. I boosted her up on the roof, I said to her, after you threw the molotov, hide in the attic. I will run and meet her back in the attic in 20 minutes, and if I don't I probably need some help. I'm counting on her on this one. "Don't miss." I said, "I know, teamwork?", "teamwork yeah." I said. I went out and yelled as loud as I could and ran for my life. I went pass Lexi and gave her the signal. Boom right on fucking target. "Nice fucking shot Lexi, keep doing it." I yelled while running away. I waited in a store, looted some stuff and made sure there are no more cutters or craze around the house. I found some candy, then went back to the attic. Gave her the candy and she loved it. We got out of the house safely, we walked back crossing the border, we were planning on going to  rural areas like the prairies, but then we encountered some bastards. These guys killed a guy, cold blooded murderers. We followed them into the forest, and then we found their small post. Since she wanted to help, I had to teach her roughly on how to aim her revolver properly. I think she can handle the gun. I sneaked on them, put one of them on choked and killed him. My hope was high but one guy spotted me. I almost died man, but then I heard the first gunshot from Lexi's. Right through the fucking head. I shot the other two guys and that was it, 4 in total. "Keep doin' it kiddo." I whispered to myself. She seemed to be in shock, I understand what it feels like, killing people for the first time. I asked her if she wants to talk about it but she said no. I guess, this is it for today I think, she looks tired and about to fall asleep. Me too actually, kinda sleepy. I guess we'll continue the journey tomorrow. Brother, hope I can find you soon.
