Chapter 10

¨This is a message to all those who have not been infected. I am Jake Lorraine. We are transmitting on all FM frequencies, if you get this message, we are at the 5ft toll outside the city. Please, if there is anyone out there, please. Please-"The message cut off. "That message transmitted every day?" Julia asked. Norman nodded. "Why haven't you gone there?"Sam inquired. ''It's too dangerous out there, we'll be infected." Ava said. Ava was Norman's daughter. She was 12. "But now we can go because we are 5. And we can maybe make it to the evacuation zone" He pointed at the tall building named The Miller Building.  But now a huge banner saying EVACUATION was hung on it.
"So lets get going" Norman said. "But we've only been here 2 days??" Julia said. " And we'll only be alive a few more days if we stay here" he signaled to a gigantic gathering of infected across the city. That was enough to convince all of them.

.     .     .

The ride across the city took almost an hour and 20 minutes, and that wasn't even half way across. It was as long it took until the gas ran out. "Oh fer-" Norman started. He kept trying to make the car run on empty. Then they heard screeches. Infected. "Oh shi- RUN!!" Julia yelled. Norman grabbed his gun, so did Julia, sam got his bat, and Ava got her backpack. They sprinted down the dark tunnel and 

guns sounded, blood flew, then Hester tripped. The infected were all over him in a few seconds. more blood, guns, and screams followed. Once they got out of the tunnel they found a car on the street and tried to run it. No  luck. The infected kept coming. Just then a military vehicle pulled up in front of them. A soldier signaled for them to get on. Three men in HAZMAT suits got out and fired M14s at the infected, many fell, but more kept coming. Eventually 2 more HAZMATs came out with shotguns and downed a few more. Finally the infected were all killed. The uninfected all got in and drove away.
