Chapter 5
“Stay right where you are.” A voice said from behind me. My breath caught against the cold hand on my throat and I froze. What was happening? A face came out from the shadows. It was a short girl with shoulder length brown hair. Her face was scattered with freckles. She squinted at me with narrowed brown eyes.
“Bring her closer, PJ.”
I was pushed towards the girl. The knife lowered but the hand stayed clamped on my throat. I was beginning to feel a little light headed. I gasped as the person behind me pushed me down.
The smaller girl frowned. “Come on, treat our guest with a little respect.”
I heard a little grunt and felt myself being lifted up onto my unsteady feet. The hand came back around my throat, but looser. That was their mistake. I whipped around to get a glimpse of the person who had grabbed me. It was another girl, but this one tall with dark curly hair. It was very short and only reached her ears. My head only reached her shoulders. She grabbed my shoulder tight. I froze. She stared at me with narrowed eyes. Then she looked over at the other girl. “I don’t think she’s a raider, Alex. Too skinny.”
“Hey!” I said indignantly. “I just saw this cabin when I left my camp-”
“Wait, what camp?” Alex, the short girl, asked. Her eyes glittered. Glancing at the taller girl who I presumed was PJ, she gestured her over. PJ dropped her hand from my shoulder and walked over to Alex with one last glance at me. They start talking in hushed voices. I only caught a few words, like “Follow,” and “Camp,” and “Scrawny,” and “Girl.” I knew they were talking about me. Who else would be a scrawny girl other than me?
But I’m not an idiot. I knew that they were planning on letting me go, then following me back to camp. When they turned back around towards me about to say something, I interrupted. “Save it,” I said to them. “I know what you’re planning. Letting me go then following me?” Their eyes widened and their heads shook, but they were very unconvincing. “How about instead of following me, I can just take you there. Because I’d rather have you where I can see you, and I know that even if you said you weren’t going to follow me, you still would.”
They stood in the dark cabin in stunned silence for a moment.
“Well, I guess you can take us, then,” Alex shrugged. “You’re right, we would follow you.” The other girl, PJ, huffed. “Why’d you tell her she was right?”
“Because she’s not dumb?” Alex responded. “What if she was just guessing?” PJ inquired. Alex sighed heavily. “Well, even if she was, it’s too late for that now, isn’t it?” She straightened up. “Come on. Let’s move.”

Chapter Six
I continued pushing away branches as I limped through the woods. I glanced behind me at Alex and PJ. They seemed to be having trouble getting through the trees and walking on the rough terrain, and I allowed it to amuse me. After all, they’d almost tried to kill me.
“So,” PJ said as she stepped over a log. “Where’s this so-called camp of yours?” “We’re getting close,” I answered, looking back in front of me. Then under my breath, I muttered, “I think.”
I heard a rustle to the left of me and glanced towards the sound. I focused on it, trying to see farther into the trees. “Hello?” Alex shouted behind me, snapping me out of my trance.
I jumped slightly, then turned around. “What? You don’t have to yell.”
Alex sighed. “I didn’t-ugh. Whatever. But we’d better be getting close, or…” She trailed off, leaving me to imagine what would happen if I didn’t lead them to camp. “Don’t worry. The camp is somewhere up ahead. But,” I started to attempt a joke, “if we don’t make it, well hey! Then we’re all apocalypse buddies, then, hmm?” Alex cringed at my very feeble attempt at humor, but PJ chuckled a bit.
“You actually thought it was funny?” I asked, surprised. Pj shook her head, still laughing. “No, no. Just how terribly bad it was.”
I frowned and raised an eyebrow. “Hmph.” “But that’s alright,” PJ began. “I make awful jokes too.” She tilted her head a bit. “We never got properly introduced, did we?” She stuck out her hand, and I shook it hesitantly. “Penelope Johnston. But you can call me PJ. And she’s Alex Newman. Don’t worry if she gets a little grumpy, she’s still my best friend. You just gotta get to know her, first.” PJ leaned in towards me. “She’s also a bit of a crackhead, so-” “Hey!” Alex shouted. “You’re the crackhead!” PJ smiled. “See what I mean?”
I laughed, glad that they were less tense, and introduced myself. “I’m Dylan Patterson. Nice to meet y’all.” Alex finally smiled at me. “You too.”
PJ laughed and shoved her gently. “Jeez, Alex, is that all it took? If I knew-!”
Suddenly a zombie broke out of the bushes where I’d heard the rustle and tackled PJ. It screeched the lyrics to an unintelligible Christmas song at her while Alex gasped, frozen in place.
“Come on!” I yelled, grabbing Alex’s arm. “There’s nothing we can do for her!”
Alex was jolted out of her stupor and stared at me with wild eyes. I pulled her arm and started running. Alex followed me after a moment’s hesitation. We ran hard, straight ahead, never looking back, until we both stumbled into the camp. Hunter and Noah were sitting in chairs and both jumped up, grabbing weapons that were sitting beside them. “Help!” Alex cried. “Zombies just infected my friend!” Then she collapsed to the ground, sobbing. I bit my lip. I didn’t know how to comfort my...friend? Captor? But I didn’t have a chance, because the zombie leapt out of the woods and tackled me, and everything went black.
