Issue 88 (Preview)
Lasky Green's POV “Fine Ives, but if he comes to, and kills one of us, that’s on you. Now what are we going to do now Mr. I Call The Shots?” I ask Ives, as I shift my stare back at him.

“First of all Lasky, you stop being such a smartass. I have saved your ass countless of times, I’ve nurtured you when you needed it. Why did I suddenly become the beacon of idiocy with you?” Ives replies back to me.

“Because the last time we trusted someone, guess who paid for it? My fucking parents! And if this time I lose you I just won’t be able to go on!” I say, I know that Ives probably thinks that I’ll burst into tears now, like how I did when my parents died, but I just stare him down.

Ives sighs, and instead of saying some emotional crap he just says, “Let’s get the fuck out of here, the biter’s will be all around us in a second’s notice.”. And he proceeds to pick up Myers and he starts to walk to the right.

I grip my knife tightly and follow him, I don’t know why, but I just feel like that Myers kid can’t be trusted. He looks like someone who would do some fucked up shit to get his way. I could easily kill him right now, the only thing Ives can do to punish me at the most is revoke my military status back at The Fort. Like I give a fuck about some title during this apocalypse. I’d rather him and I both get out of this alive, than one of us dying but keeping our military title.

Ives keeps on walking forward until we finally reach the end of this forest we were in, and we see a bundle of buildings in front of us. Ives walks towards the nearest building, places Myers down, and opens the door.

“I’m going to scout out the building, if I’m not back in ten minutes, then you find me in here. For now just keep a watch for Myers.” Ives says, and he walks through the door, and closes it behind him.

I sit down next to Myers, and I grip my knife. I actually could just kill him right now, stab him in the head, say he reanimated when Ives comes back. It could work, except the fact that Ives knows I would want to do that right now more than anything. Instead I just relax my grip on my knife, and just stare forward, at the forest we just left.

“Who are you?” I hear someone say, and I turn to Myers to see him come to, now looking confused, and in pain.

“Don’t try and move so quickly, it’ll hurt your wounds.” I say, and Myers relaxes up a bit. Maybe I was wrong about him.

“You never answered me.” Myers says.

“Name’s Lasky Green, what about you Myers?” I ask him.

“Ken Myers. Excuse me but, where am I, what happened to me, and why am I so fucking wounded?” Ken asks.

“I don’t even know. We found you like that, do you remember anything about what happened before you just woke up?” I ask him.

“All I remember is talking to Logan, this kid I’m protecting. Everything is a blank after that.” Then suddenly his eyes open, and he tries to stand up, but his body refuses to, instead rewarding Ken in pain. He slumps back down, gritting his teeth, “Where’s Logan?” He asks.

“I don’t know, but I promise we’ll find him. Just relax for a little.” I say, but he doesn’t relax, he instead keeps trying to stand up, and he keeps talking about this Logan.
