a month ; a small town ; trying to get used to seeing dead corpses all around.
It's been about a month into the apocalypse, everything is hard when having to fight for your life every couple of minutes, and it's hard seeing dead things 24/7
The group made their way to a small town called Dellmount. It's right outside of the forest. “guys we can stay here for a bit.” Gerard says walking around the small town, only about 12 houses, it's more of a neighborhood but it's considered a town “Okay!” Frank exclaims looking around, the others also look around , they separate to loot the houses. Frank walks into this house , house 132.
As Frank walks around in this abandoned house he finds some canned goods, a flashlight and matches. He walks into the bedroom,the door creaks when it opens. He scans the room not seeing any dangers so he walks into the room until he hears the door shut behind him. He hurries and draws his gun pointing the gun around the room, no one's there. “werid…” he mutters to himself .
Frank decides to go back to the group, Right as he leaves the bedroom he notices that the bathroom door is open. So he peaks in, he sees a rotting corpse, it's a zombie but it was already killed, its blood and guts were everywhere in the tub where it was laying, flies surrounded the corpse. flying and landing on the body . Frank stands there frozen,a chill being sent down his spine and a weird feeling rising in his stomach. This is the first time seeing someone so young, so innocent, so dead,turned into a rotting monster, just to get killed again.
Frank shuts the bathroom door, still shocked and a bit upset. He makes his way out of the house and to the group in a distance. “Frank, are you okay? you look…horrified" Gerard says worried, placing his hands on frank shoulders, bringing him in closer. “I just saw a rotting corpse..a zombie.. it was killed..but it looked like a kid." Frank says still grossed out from the scene.
“oh.. I'm sorry Frankie. there rotting corpses everywhere but seeing a kid one is upsetting." Gerard says, trying to be empathetic pulling Frank into a hug. “I hate seeing shit like that..” Frank mutters as he buries his face into Gerard's neck "I know but we will have to get used to it.” Gerard murmurs pressing a kiss to the top of Frank's head, running his fingers through his unbrushed hair.. “you guys okay?” Ray asks, walking to Gerard and Frank. “yeah.” Frank replied not wanting to seem weak. Ray nods
“Okay… I found a lot of things , like food and a med kit” Ray says after looking at Frank suspiciously. “sweet!” Gerard exclaims knowing the first aid kit could come in handy in the future.
