Into Darkness
Chapter 4
If I had to take a guess, I'd say that Oliver was around Lucas age, maybe a few years older. He seemed nice, but I'd barely known him for a day, so it was hard to say.
"Well then, I really don't know if running in skinny jeans are the optimal choice, but it worked earlier right?" I asked rhetorically, but they still nodded.
"We're off as soon as the others arrive... Where's James and Peter, by the way?"
I looked around the room and shrugged.
"Probably on the second floor or at the toilet or something" I guessed and he seemed to agree.
"We should pack some bags, so we can put stuff we find in it" A new voice said and I turned around and was pleased to see Peter.
"Have you seen James?" Lucas took the opportunity to ask.
"Yeah, he's upstairs fixing our sleeping area" Peter answered, pointing up the stairs.
"OI, JAMES?" He yelled.
"YEAH?" We heard someone, probably James yell back.
"COME DOWN AND GRAB A BACKPACK OR TWO WHILE YOU'RE AT IT"
I furrowed my brow, my ears were extra sensitive right now, especially since I had a headache.
"YEAH, YEAH, WHATEVER"
Peter chuckled and smiled for himself.
We soon heard footsteps coming down the stairs and James appeared.
"Here you go" He said to me as he handed me a backpack while smiling.
The man, who seemed to be in Peters age or older also handed Lucas a backpack and gave him the same warm smile, which he returned.
About an hour later, the doors in the front opened and five panting people came through them.
"We're back motherf*ckers!" A petite girl with short dark hair yelled.
I raised an brow and she had a smug look on her face.
I saw some of the older people look at Harry and then back at her with an disapproving look.
"Great, then it's time for us to leave" I broke the awkward silence and took the knife from the girl.
"I'm pretty sure I need this more than you do now" I said, while she handed me it with an amused smirk.
What the heck was her problem?
"Did you see any zombies?" Peter asked a boy from the group and he shook his head.
"We kept walking in the same direction we did earlier and eventually ended up in the town next to us, but it was completely dead over there. No one was outside and the houses seemed empty."
"There was people outside though" The girl I'd started to dislike, added.
"But they were dead" The boy said, with a cold glare at the girl.
She shrugged and I frowned.
How could she be so indifferent about all of this?
"Let's go" I muttered and grabbed Lucas wrist, surprising us both.
He however, didn't say anything and we were soon outside.
