BITE by T.D Jackson (debian ebook reader .TXT) 📕

up on having kids but against all odd's it happened. Tammi was taken Em to school I was still in bed didn't have a chance to say goodbye. Scream's woke me up I went outside and they were being attacked by those thing's. I managed to get them in to the car and drive them to the hospital but the place got overrun... I saw them walking around dead but attacking people. I escaped got back here and drank myself stupid then well you can see for yourself what happened". I listened in silence and nodded. "Look Jack I'm not going to lie to you and say I know how you are feeling I don't I have not lost any of my family yet but you seem like a stand up guy we have a place you can stay and people there all a lot younger than you but there a good group" He nodded but didn't say anything. "We also have more booze" I joked. "I think I have had enough for 1 lifetime" He smiled. We parked the car next to the Fiesta so someone was still home inside the flat's we grabbed the tool's and headed off. "Dude what the hell do you do with half this stuff? It weighs a dam tonne" I asked. "Half of it was never used" he said. We got to the front door of the flats and it was obvious something was wrong the door entrance way was scorched I put the bag's down and cautiously put the bag's down and approached the door of someone was on watch I didn't want them blowing my head off. I pressed the call button no response I pressed it again after 5 attempt's I gave up and poked my head through the broken glass window. Toby shoved the barrel of the shotgun against my temple. "And it's nice to see you to" I said Toby put the gun down pulled me through the door and hugged me then punched me in the arm "Don't you fucking do that again" I laughed and prised myself from his grip. "I wont but I made a new friend" Jack pulled his way through the glass with the bag's. "Thanks for the help he said" I helped him to his feet. Jon Lara and Jane soon followed down the stairs hugs kisses and introductions flowed for the next 5 mins. We grabbed the new equipment and headed upstairs. There was only 1 person I wanted to see. "Wheres Sky?" I asked Jon. "In her room she's pretty upset she has barely eaten or left her bed" I nodded and entered my flat and opened the bedroom door. The light's were off and the curtains closed a lump was in the middle of the bed facing away from the door"Go away I don't want to talk to anyone!!" "Well I will just go away then" I said laughing. Sky jumped up from the bed and jumped to hug me saying she missed me and thought i was gone forever. She also yelled at me for making me worry I apologized and she proceeded to show me the homework I had given her and the pictures she had drawn. I introduced her to Jack and they seemed to immediately hit it off not surprising since he has had a girl her age. It was midday and we all settled down for lunch Pot Noodle all round but it was the best thing I had eaten in ages. The morale has improved dramatically even Jack told a few joke's. After lunch I had a shower washing grime and dried blood from the previous few day's. I got dressed and found Toby and Jon waiting for me. "This can only be good new's" I said. We sat down and Jon started talking "The day after I got back someone but I think we can all guess who threw a petrol bomb throw the window we managed to put it out but a brick came flying through the window with a note attached to it" What did it say?" Jon passed me a folded piece of lined white paper.
MEET 7:00PM FRIDAY ROYAL VICTORIA PLACE TOP FLOOR COME ALONE USE THE FOOD COURT ENTRANCE
You have been a pain in are arse but we just wanna talk to yous
"See what I mean?" Jon said. "I can see the grammar is terrible get rid of spell check and the world go's mad" A small snigger from Toby. "Well if only one of us can go then I'm going I said" I will skip over the argument that followed as it was the same old argument again but suffice to say there was plenty of swearing. Today was Wednesday that left us 2 day's Jon had gone to check the state of Royal Victoria Place a small shopping center and found the place securely locked down no living or dead inside. It was unlikely that this was there main base as this place would be very difficult to defend and we had seen them retreat in the opposite direction the other day. Every one would stay except me just in case this was a trap to leave the place undefended. Later I headed down to the 1st floor with Jack to help him pick out a room he selected one and I helped him move his tools and the few personal possessions he had managed to take with him. When we were done the place looked like a car repair garage. Jack had told me before all this happened he had been an inventor/engineer and enjoyed tinkering with things I asked him Jokingly if he could make me some ultra cool zombie killing weapons "O.K" he said. "Dude I was joking" I said. "Give me your boot's and your baton" He was serious I passed him my boots and baton and he started to measure.
The next day was very relaxed despite knowing what I had to do tomorrow. We checked our supplies read did some cooking I drew pictures with Sky who soon ran off to see why Jack was in his room all day. I checked on her after an hour and found her sitting on a des watching Jack taking part of my boot apart. "She isn't bothering you is she?" I worried that Jack might not do to well with having a girl the same age as his daughter hanging round him. Instead he looked up and smiled "No it's fine really" I shrugged "O.K be good" "I will" They both replied causing them to both degenerate in to giggles.
After dinner I went to see Jack again bringing him down a sandwich Sky had fallen asleep on the sofa and had a coat draped over her. "Hey I got you some food" He turned to look at me. He looked a lot better the colour had returned to his face the bags and lines seemed to have faded he looked more his age of 37 rather than his 50's like the other day. He smiled and demolished the sandwich. "Are you O.K with her in here I asked?" Motioning towards Sky. "Yes she's fine she reminds me a lot of Em" He smiled wistfully. "Just checking how's my zombie killing shit coming along?" Changing the subject. "It should be ready for you tomorrow but I'm not going to ruin the suprise are you sure you don't want someone to come with you?" "No I'll be fine always have been in the past don't see why tomorrow would be any different" "Your luck may run out" "Well I try not to worry about things I cant do anything about did you ever hear that poem from world war 1 soldiers?" "No how does it go?" "When you are a soldier you can be one of 2 things safe or not safe if you are safe don't worry. If you are not safe you will be one of two things injured or not injured if you are not injured don't worry. If you are injured one of 2 things will happen you will die or you will recover if you recover don't worry if you die you cant worry there fore a soldier never worries" Jack laughed. I scooped up Sky said goodnight to Jack and headed upstairs. I put Sky to bed and settled down on the sofa. There were no TV channels still transmitting some just had static others just showed dead sets literally dead sets with the former crew wandering around the stage. The odd radio station was still up most of it pleas for help from my miles away or just the same prerecorded music over and over again. I settled on to the sofa as the apocalypse howled around me.
And So We Meet Again

I woke up late the day of the proposed meeting, everyone seemed to want me to get some rest. Jon and Toby had left early in the morning to scavenge from a few local shops they didn't find much a few tins and that was about it. Considering that we have 3 more people than we planned on having our supplies are holding out well but soon we will have to travel further to scavenge for food we have already made plans to head to a few garden stores to get seeds and anything else we could possibly grow so we have a more reliable food supply. I gave Sky some new homework basic maths she started on it cheerfully she seemed happy just to have me back so she didn't complain. Ty Jenna and Lara were doing washing up and various other laundry bits and pieces. I headed downstairs to see Jack. Jack's room had now gone from looking like a garage to Q's lab. Wiring pieces of metal and tools I had never seen before scattered everywhere. He looked up from what looked like a half disassembled TV and laughed at the look on my face. "Come in come in morning careful where you step I dropped some glass earlier cant quite remember where it was though" CRUNCH "Ah there it is" I lifted up my shoe and saw the TV's screen below it. "Do you sleep?" I asked. "Cant sleep when you found me the other day I was well lets just say in a bad place but now" He waves his arms around. "Look I have all this!"I looked at the junk that had piled up remarkably quickly "Er.. yeah it's certainly something" I said. Jack chuckled "O.K Mr skeptical come see what I did to your stuff. He wandered over to one of the tables and picked up my boot's. "Well when I saw them yesterday they were in pieces the fact there back together now is a large improvement and you polished them" I laughed. "I have done more than that I cut in to the boot's and reinforced it with thin pieces of metal so they should be bite proof" I nodded my head "Cool" "You look dissapointed" Before
