[Wizard9876]

It had come as a shock when the world had suddenly been taken over by zombies. Charlotte had seen plenty of American movies about zombies due to her friends showing her, but she had never thought it would become a reality. It was just too bizarre of a thing to be real but it was. It had happened when she was at school so naturally she didn’t believe it immediately until she had looked outside and saw people running and screaming. When she had gotten to her host family she found they had already turned and had admittedly felt somewhat relieved that she’d never have to see them again, though she did feel bad for the boy they had with them, he had been kinda cute.

The girl had taken to surviving on her own after figuring out that no one close to her was still alive, not her friends, not her host family, and not anyone she knew. She had heard France hadn’t been hit as hard as America but also heard that they wouldn’t be able to last very long and just prayed her family had gotten away. Afterwards she had packed a few things, these included a few pairs of clothes, some extra food, and a metal baseball bat she had brought with her from France when she had been trying to get into baseball. She’d been kicked off the team since her grades were low, but she had learned a few things and could swing a bat so well it would be classified as a deadly weapon in her hands. It had helped her last as long as she had and now she was on the move again.

The girl had been moving ever since the event had started and had managed to escape death several times. Killing the biters was easy given they moved slow and were weak to every material that was man made, a shot to the head finished the job nicely. The troubles with them came when someone encountered more than at least three of them. That was when you were in danger and needed to run or you’d be killed by them. Charlotte had honestly been following some tracks she found through the woods as she assumed whoever left them was probably dead and had left behind loot. She figured she could kill their zombified form and take whatever they had on them. That completely backfired the moment she heard noise and she was ready to destroy the biter until she found a person approaching her. She had hesitated in grabbing her bat as she wasn’t ready to kill an actual person, and ended up getting trapped and pressed against a tree. She couldn’t breathe as her throat was taken and was thankful when she was put down, wary of the gun the older female held.

The short teen coughed a few times to regain her lost breath before her crystal blue eyes glared up at the lady. “I’m not following you dumb ass, I’m following whatever left these tracks,” she shot back. Her hand was still on her bat, one swing and the stranger would be knocked out. But she couldn’t risk doing that with a gun to her chest, she needed to get her to remove it first. “Désolé, I was looking for something to eat.”

She tried to look as innocent and as cute as possible, despite hating to appear as both, trying to get the lady to let her go so she could make a run for it.
