Zombie Story: Threads of a Tire

=I walk off, looking for something to do.=

(Rich)

=I get one wall finished and move to the next=

(Ellie)

=I sigh, going out to the living room=
=I begin looking around at some things=

Do do do.


=He blows past them all. New York City. A completely destroyed area=
=Absolutely no life exists except the undead=
=As he passes a group feeding. He scowls=
=He had left New York approximately four hours after his post on the forum's chat. Left now to anyone that may scroll through the archives=
=He is currently on the road. Loneliness embracing him=
=He had been alone for two years. He was used to it=

=My vision goes white again.=

(Hissing Voice) Begin...

=My vision goes back to Normal. I feel drowsy, and fall over, on the ground. My vision goes white again.=

=He swings the door wide=
=Smashing a feeding Zed on the road=
=He closes the door and looks back=

Poor soul

=He shakes his head=
=Continuing on in silence=

Takes about forty minutes to drive from Downmacpatric to Kinsale.

The Stop at the abandoned house, which wasn't so abandoned, bunch of zombies came running at me, had to chop em all up, wasn't difficult, training pays off, so does natural intuition and a knack for killing things. I looted the place, marked it on the map, while still inside the house, traced my path, marked it as having more loot and material, took some food to eat along the way to Kinsale, then set off. Ireland, the land where the sun seldom shines and rainfall is as frequent as green grass.

=I walk into the town, looking for the Ammo store=

(Rich)

=I sit on an edge of the house=
=A second wall up=

=I take a swig of water=

Ah.

(Ellie)

=I head out to where the house was being built=
=Seeing Rich with=

My water!

(Rich)

=I look at her and laugh=

Oh! You want this?

(Ellie)

=I pout=

Yes...

(Hissing Voice) Should he know?

(Hissing Voice) Yes...

(Hissing Voice) No...

(Hissing Voice) He deserves to know...

=My vision goes back to normal, and I stand up.=

(Rich)

=I laugh, taking another drink=

Well cmon over here.

=I hold out the water bottle=

(Ellie)

=I walk over to him and take it=
=Sitting down=

Thanks...

=I find and walk into the ammo store and look around=

(As Raul)
'Can I help you, sonny?'

Ja.

=I walk up to the counter=

Do you have.. uuhh... .223 armmo?

(Ellie)

=I look at the work he had done=

Looks like youve been workin hard

(Rich)

=I laugh=

Havent hardly been workin, thats fer sure

(Ellie)

=I take a sip of the water=

Howve you been...?

'Yea, I do. What are you going to give me in return?'

Hmm...

=I look through my bag and find a light blanket=

This will do?

'Nope. Either something of greater value, or that and something else. It isn't easy to make these rounds.'

Make?

=I put the blanket away=

'Yes, I make them. Now, what are you going to give me in return for these rounds?'

Hmmhmhm...

=I turn around=

I am not buying mediocre rounds..

(Rich)

I should be askin ya that.
And. I should be askin where ya were.

(Ellie)

=I look at him=
=Tears beginning to show=
=I hug him=

Im sorry, Rich...
I tried ta get home...I did...but...I...was caught up in the wave...so many people fleeing...

(Rich)

=I return the hug=
=Rubbing her back=

Its okay, Lee.
Its okay...

=I decide to make my way to the Workshop, to see if he has any more ammo for my Rifle.=

'Yer loss, sonny. Closest workshop for miles.'

=I chuckle again=

Whatever you say.. "Sonny"..

=I begin to walk out of the workshop=

'Eh...'

He goes to the back of the workshop, working on things.

=I arrive at the Workshop, noticing Brandon leaving.=

=I cock my SL8=

=After a few hours he had passed into Georgia=
=Stopping off in Atlanta=
=He pulls up to a gas station. Hoping for just a bit of gas=

=He hops out, taking a knife=
=He looks around=

Hmm...

=He begins filling up the tank. Miraculously the fuel is flowing=
=He runs into the store=
=Looking around=
=The only light coming from the sun=
=He begins taking what was left from the shelves=

=He goes to leave, hears a moan behind him=
=He chucks the knife at the Zed=
=It sticks it against the wall=

=He heads off to the Jeep, loads it up, takes out the nozzle. Leaving it out. just a bit left flowing out=
=He hops in=
=Striking a match. Throwing it down and driving off=

Ka. Boom.

=Xazhi and Adam had been chilling out on the Comet for a while now. Xazhi decided he would go back to the Forum, and see what was up=

[18:26:20] Xazhi : Hello? Who is still out there?

=He sighs, not expecting a response=

=tries to find a workshop to trade in his gun=

=I woke up to the sound of waves. There wasn't a stench in sight. Good. I packed up, and brought my bike back to the road. Once I got there, I consulted my map. Unfortunately, if I wanted to go north, I'd have to stick to the beach: the road I would have to take, would lead into a large residential zone=

Great, at least I'll have a nice view.

=I started biking along the beach=

=I walk into the Workshop, and ring the bell.=

=hears a bell and heads there=

looks like i found it

=I walk past two men on my way out=

=He can hear an explosion in the distance=
=Actually feeling some of the shockwave from it=

=He continues on his path West=

(Ellie)

=I begin to calm down=

I was so affraid...

=I cling onto him=

(Rich)

I was too
Fearin where you were, Lee

=I pull away=

Did you see Annabel?

=I sit down, waiting for Raul.=

=sees someone else there and sits down waiting=

=I fall asleep, sitting against the wall.=

(Ellie)

=I shake my head=

Im sorry, Rich...I didnt see her...

(Rich)

=I bow my head into her shoulder=

Damnit..

(Ellie)

Dont worry. Yall will find each other again.

=I pat his back=

(Rich)

Two years, Lee...Two years of not knowin...

=I sigh, standing up=

Lets git this house done.

=We begin working on the house=

(Raul)
He comes out of the front with a new batch of 9mm rounds. He sees one guy sleeping against the wall and one person standing at the counter.

'Hey there. What can I do for ya?'

'Sorry, can't help ya. I can fix it, or at least try, or give ya ammo. You want guns, go to the gun shop on the other side of this building.'

=heads out to gun store=

=I start to look for the gun store=

=heads inside the gun store=

(as the gunshop owner)
'Which rifle you want?'

'Maybe. What do you have?'

=I walk into the Gun shop=

She looks at the new person.

'You wait your turn, he's first.'
