Chapter 4: The Accident and The Convenience Store

"Slow down!" Jax yelled followed by Red's voice

"Watch out!" Red yelled and then the coaster hit something

I hit the breaks and stand up.

"Stay here," I said and prepare myself before heading out

I take a look at the surroundings and look under the coaster. There are two zombies under the coaster. I noticed that there is a mysterious car and I can't help but take a look through the windows.

Suddenly someone tapped my shoulders.

"Let's go back, there's a group of zombies heading in our way," Red said and I nod

We were about to go back to the coaster but then the car's door suddenly opened up and someone pulled my clothes.

"Watch out!" Raze yelled and he pulled me beside him

The second thing I heard is a sword cutting flesh. I bring out my gun and shot down as many zombies as I can. Suddenly the exhaustion I keep ignoring earlier really came back big time. My knees felt weak my whole body trembled and I felt cold.

I want to take a break but I need to help them. Before I knew it Raze and Red already killed them all.

"Are you okay?" Raze asked looking at me worried

I nod and he helped me stand up

We go back to the coaster and I fetch a vial from my bag before going back to one of the zombies to get some blood samples.

"What are you doing?!" Red said trying to stop me from getting some samples

"Taking samples, I need some claims to prove what I know is right" I answered and we get inside the coaster

"Take my seat, I'll drive to the nearest gas station," Raze said and hand me a bottled water

Red helped me to get on my seat and Raze started to drive.

"Where did Raze get his weapon?" I asked Red but he looks away

"That thing is confidential" Red answered and my curiosity is getting ahead of me

"Your weapon and Raze's weapon have the same trademark. Which means you're both a member of a clan" I said trying to get answers from him

Still, he gives me no answers.

"Your weapon and his weapon are both advanced, same as my brother's weapon," I said and looked at him

He avoid my gaze and John tapped my shoulder.

"I think you should stop asking him. He won't give you answers" John whispered and I look at him "We're not a bad person. I assure you" he added and smiled at me

I smiled back and Raze suddenly stand up.

"We're here, there's a little store there maybe we can get food there while I'm filling up this tank," Raze said and I stand up

Red also stand up followed by Aze.

"We'll get some food. The rest should stay here and if you see anything strange. Open your phone's flashlight" I instructed and we get out

of the coaster

"Why didn't we head first at the market?" Aze asked and we try to find some stone to break the glass

"We passed by a market earlier but there's a lot of blood there. We didn't stop there because mostly, people will go to the market to get some supplies and their needs" Red answered and I nod agreeing with his explanation

"There's a big market 5 miles ahead of that I know is safe to get some foods. It has been closed ever since the outbreak started a week ago" Red added and I looked at him

"You also know?" I inquired and he nods

"I read some article about it before the government make some announcement" Red answered and we hear a glass shattering

"Aze!" I yelled and look at Aze with blood dripping on his arms

"I broke it," He said and smiled at me

"Dimwit" Red murmured and shake his head

"Get back on the coaster, ask Dean to help you with your wounds" Red ordered and Aze was about to say something but Red's gaze looked like he will not accept any response

Aze looks at me worried but I give him a sign assuring him it will be okay and he went back to the coaster.

We head inside the small convenience store and I get some baskets to put every food and every supply we can get. I saw some pills and tablets and was about to get some but Red stopped me.

"Don't." He said and I look at him

"Why? It can help us if ever some get sick" I said and he sighed

"It will not help, Dean already has some medical supplies" he answered and looked at me worried

"I know you're worried about them but it will be better if you will listen to us" He explained and I nod as a sign of defeat

Suddenly we hear some weird noise from the staff's room.

"Stay here," Red said before checking on what was in that room

When he opened the room, the first thing we saw was so horrifying. A woman's half body lying on the floor and bugs all over her.

Before bugs come out, Red closes the door and looks at me.

"Let's go," Red said and we head out of the store

We get back on the coaster and Raze seems like he's done filling up the tank.

Red decided to take the driver's seat since he knows the location of the largest marketplace in the country and I take a seat beside Aze and Finn.

After a while, I heard a stomach growling. I look at Aze and he turned red.

"What? It's not me" Aze defensively said while waving his hands

"I didn't say It's you," I said trying hard not to laugh

"Then, why did you look at me?" He asked and I just shrug my shoulders

"Eva, We're hungry" Finn whispered

"You can get what you like in the basket, but only get what you can finish," I said to everyone and they get what they wanted to eat from the baskets
