Silence

We ran... then walked.... then stopped....



   Although those Zombies seemed fast enough to have caught up with us, we couldn't even hear them anymore. I breathed and tried to calm down, I was on the verge of hyperventilating and having a panic attack. 

   I sat against a tree and looked up at the dark blue sky fade to black. It reminded me of Zane in a weird way.... his eye color and his favorite color. I smiled to myself... tried not to think about the fact that he might be torn apart by zombies right now.

   I was smiling as I sobbed in anguish.


  It hurt. Why does it hurt? Wasn't Zane a terrible person? Hasn't he hurt people? I didn't know anymore.

My eyes shot open and I stared out into the night.


...



By 1:00 am my eyes were still roaming around the sky with my ears strained for a single sound


NOTHING


Finally, I couldn't take it anymore.I closed my eyes and breathed in, and out... in, and out...in, and out...in, and out...in, and out...in, and out... in.... and.....
