Into Darkness

Chapter 3

"Wha-what are you talking about? How many Zombies are there?" I felt my chest tighten and I started to feel dizzy again.

"The news were only broadcasting for about 10 minutes until they had to run. They said that there were approximately 10 000 in England right know but that they were increasing in numbers quickly"

10 000? Holy shit.

"What do you mean? Increasing?" Lucas questioned, confusedly.

"It's a virus and it's contagious by blood. If they come in contact with an open wound, you become one of them... If they don't eat you before that"

I looked around the room and saw that everyone was listening to out conversation, most people shared my nervous expression.

"A virus? But there must be a cure then? Mustn't it? How do we stop them?" Peter practically begged his aunt, taking her shoulders in his hands.

"They said that people were working on it, but until then; they said that the only safe way was to separate the head from its body" She clamped her eyes shut, probably trying to the awful picture she's given all of us, out of her head.

"Oh god, we're basically screwed" I muttered, earning myself a few glares.

"How are we supposed to get food?"

"What about protection?"

"Do you even have any weapons?"

People were talking, trying to drown out each others and I just felt myself getting harder and harder to breath.

I tried to get out of the crowd around me, but there were to many people in the way.

My eyes turned dizzy and the last thing I saw before it all turned black, was Lucas' worried eyes.

"Raven? Are you alright?" I felt someone shake my shoulders and when I opened my eyes, I saw big brown eyes only a few centimeters from my face.

Startled, I tried to get away, but I soon calmed down when I realized that it was Harry.

"God damn it Harry, you can't scare her like that" I snapped my head in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Lucas.

"Sorry..." The little boy muttered, climbing of my chest.

Lucas shook his head, but I could see that he was smiling.

"Are you alright?" He asked me, his voice now soft.

"My head hurts...?" I said, a little unsure. My head was hurting, but I wasn't sure why.

"You passed out and hit your head, that's probably why" He explained and I sighed.

God damn my claustrophobia.

Luckily it wasn't a very serious case of it, but when I was in crowds with too many people or in small rooms, I usually freaked.

"Where am I?" My voice was hoarse and I coughed a few times.
