Worlds Over, Time to Die. Nothing Left but our Souls Inside.

If I knew that coming to D.C, a place I had been told was a safe zone, would be at the cost of so many of my friends then I wouldn't have even bothered telling everyone about it.
In twenty four hours, we have lost five people. Five amazing people are gone. I still can't get the images out of my head and they will forever haunt me especially since I am partly to blame.

We got attacked by a group of angry survivors that weren't willing to listen to us an kind of ambushed us. That's where a lot of us got injured and Tony's mom and sister got killed. With all that he's been through, I'm not surprised at how aggressive and ornery he's being. I could never imagine seeing my mother in the condition that she was.

Kellin got shot in the leg but it wasn't bad, he was just limping. Justin got shot in the abdomen and ended up bleeding out before we reached D.C, no matter how hard we tried to save him. Jaime had gotten grazed by a few bullets, he's incredibly lucky that he didn't get shot, all of his injuries were just flesh wounds. Nick had a twisted ankle from running and Liam had a lot of scrapes from falling over.

The second attack was the worst. We had gotten to the gates of the 'safe zone' and almost avoided the entire attack until someone called out saying some of us had been infected and the snipers started shooting.

I have never in my life seen someones head nearly split in half but now I can say I have and I never want to witness it again. Poor fucking Nick, he was such a nice guy and didn't deserve to go out the way he did.

I had screamed out looking for Liam, Alysha said he would be fine behind the bush he was hiding by but I blocked her out and kept calling out for him. He started running and it all just happened so quickly..

She had run out to save him... She saved my son. I will always be grateful for that. I stood there in shock as my son came cunning towards me and got grazed by one of the last bullets fired. I held him in my arms as we both cried. He was so scared, he had every right to be.

I watched as some guards came by and talked to Tony, Jaime, Kellin and Erin. Erin was crying and the anger in Tony's eyes flared up every time the guards tried to apologize for the incredible fuck up they made.

Tony had taken the baby and came over to make sure we were okay and then went over to Alysha with Erin, Mama and Jaime. Kellin stood by me, staring intently at them.

I had always known he had a thing for Alysha, I knew he cared for her more than a typical friend would. I didn't care as long as he didn't act upon his feelings. It still hurt to see him though. He ran.. well hobbled over to her and I watched as they all cried and he kissed her forehead. I knew then that something more must've happened prior to me joining the group.

I watched as he burst into hysterics and I Walked over to him, knowing that he cared for her so deeply, knowing that she saved our son, and comforted him. We were all hurting from all the loss but this, this hurt us all a lot.

It still hadn't hit me in that moment, that moment of us all comforting each other at the final death of the day, that our friends were truly gone or that we were actually going to be safe from now on.

The guards had set up a house within their 'camp' for us all to stay in. They were tending to the people who had been injured and were taking our information down. They said they needed to account for everyone that came here so they could see how many people actually survived.

Jaime had gone out to get Vic and Danielle with two guards. Speaking of them, Vic said he was going to propose to Dani while they were gone. I'm happy that they can share such a special thing together even in such a terrible time.

Now all we can do is try to recover from all of this; heal and adjust to this new life. There were a lot of survivors here who didn't make it off the continent in time. some how life seemed to be okay here. I knew this though. I knew it was safe here. I need to tell them about it now that we're here. Now that we're safe.


I guess I'll do that when Vic, Jaime and Danielle get back. I'll tell them everything.

Notes

Hey internet fam!

I'm so happy to be getting back into this again. As per usual, we got busy and forgot about writing(I personally had to take a break from all of my stories) but WE'RE BACK!

I know everyone who's posted has already said it but I'm glad to be back and get motivated for this again.

Seems as though this will be ending soon, not sure how soon though and boy oh boy is it gonna be hard to say goodbye to this behemoth of a story.

Anyways, I hope you all are doing well~
