12 Chapter 11: Run??‍♀️

George pov:

Once my heart beat slows down,all I can hear is the pitter patter of our feet. This would be paradise and peaceful for some but to us it's a nightmare. This is how it always starts,the animals cry then silence enters the earth. Only humans making noise,as if the world around us has frozen. That's when it comes,seeking who to devour. Preying on the weak and helpless. This was the calm before the storm and we needed a place to hide. Quick.

No ones pov:

Fear is struck into the hearts of both George and J but they dare not show it. They have to remain strong for eachother and for themselves. What's the point of losing it all now and dying? They both think the same thing and run for the nearest abandoned house.George follows quickly behind J as she storms, running for her life. The sense of emergency is felt as they pull the blinds and cover every last speck of the remaining light outside from coming in. Next, a hiding spot. Where could they hide, they haven't got time to waste.

George pov:

'What should we do? ,it'll be here soon'

'Come on, there's gotta at least something they left behind.' She mutters

A strange object glistens in the corner of my eye. A pair baseball bats with nails poking out.

'Sick!' I hand one over to Joy and now we're armed ,but still short of a hiding place. I use this chance to take the lead and venture up the stairs. Pictures of a pretty blonde,tall lady are hung on the wall; her sad expression showed in every single one. I guess her life was already miserable. It completely freaked me out! Walls which used to be white and pictures which used to be clean are now smeared with rotting blood. I don't even wanna imagine what happened in this house, this home. As we make our way further up,the smell of death engulf our noses making us gag. A ruffling sound makes me jump spreading out my arms to cover Joy. She swats it away,telling me to hurry up. The things I do for her. I swear. You might be wondering why on earth we're going nearer and nearer towards the smell. You might think we're crazy but 'they' can't smell us if we are by other smelly things. How did they even take over the world when they're so dumb. Can't smell properly, can't see properly, they're lucky they're so good at killing otherwise we could have gotten rid of them by now. Ahh the military hardly did anything,just left us to suffer by ourselves. Families were ripped apart, children separated from their mothers. We were screaming for help but there was no help, no support. This was the real war and no one came prepared.
