The Dead World/Issue 8

Sighing to herself, Bella walked around the shop nervously running a hand through her hair, the kids had been gone too long...she knew she should've gone herself  but NO, Tyral had to go and worry her to make her stay behind, half the time she believed he done it just so she would stay behind.

"how sweet" Bella sarcasticly mumbled to herself as she turned and looked to where said man was currently loading his shotgun while perched on a box, seconds later he looked up at her and grinned but Bella just shook her head and turned away from him, he didnt need encouragment.

"they'll be alright" a voice suddenly said at her shoulder causing her to turn around in suprise to look at....Lewis. Bella knew nothing about him except for the fact he mostly kept to himself inless if encouragment was needed, however he was also a bit childish.

"I nearly had ya bloody head OFF" Bella nearly screamed at him gesturing to the machete in her hand before turning back to him and glaring while he just raised his hands in a defense stance.

"only trying to keep the hope up" Lewis replied giving a small smile causing Bella to growl and turn back to look out the window, how the hell did he know whether they was going to be ok or not, Bella thought as she looked out the window but Lewis just gave an encouraging pat on the shoulder before he walked away, leaving Bella to stare out the window and watch as zombies walked along the streets....

Will didnt like the fact he had to follow the lead of two teenagers that had managed to get themselves stuck ontop of a bus, but he knew he had no choice THEY knew where their group was, he didnt. Sighing to himself, Will asked THE question again.

"how much far?" he asked and the girl Faith turned to look at him while running.

"not far...about a couple more shops" she answered and Will sighed, however Natasha beat him to it.

"you said that the last time" she stated and Faith shrugged.

"we cant always be right, we didnt live in the city when all this started" Faith said and the two nodded until Will skidded to a halt.

"woah,stop,STOP!!!" Will warned and they all followed his similar actions and looked at how zombies were flooding the streets in front of them.

"that cant be right, this alley was meant to be clear" Aiden said in shock starting to back away

Looking around Will sighed as he saw no other way out and he aimed his crossbow "get your weapons ready" Will told them but when he turned to make sure they did, he noticed Faith and Aiden had no weapons and they just shrugged looking at him.

"God DAMMIT!!!" Will shouted and shoved the crossbow into Aiden's arms before grabbing his crowbar off his back "move back" Will told them and they slowly did, however Faith's gasp confirmed it to Will, the zombies from earlier had followed them through the window.

"we're trapped" Natasha told Will causing him to turn and look at her.

"I KNOW" he replied before turing to the kids about to give an order but raised an eyebrow at Aiden who was currently examing the crossbow like it was the most wonderful thing in the world "KID!!!" Will shouted at him, jolting him out of his distracted phase.

"yes, sir?" Aiden asked causing Will to raise an eyebrow again but inwardly shrug.

"you and Faith look for a way out while me and Natasha hold em off, ok?" Will said and the two teens nodded, however as Will and Natasha went back to back to defend them, they had no idea how the teens would get them out of it.

"ya know, when I said watching eachothers backs...I didnt have this in mind" Natasha said causing Will to grin before he got an idea and turned to Aiden.

"hey kid, pass me my crossbow and take my crowbar" he said and the two exchanged weapons and before Aiden could ask why Will continued "pull up some of those fence boards at the side, enough so we can get free" Will ordered him but Faith gave him a look.

"there is no way, we got enough time to do that" she said but Will didnt get a chance to respond as someone beat him to it.

"DONT WORRY, ole' Tyral has ya covered" they heard a man speak and all turned to see a man
