I found it!

Day 3, Week 1

So I found it! After two months of running, I found it! I found a family, I found a home, I found a place where I belong.  The Rangers took me in and I guess I surprised the top dog with my fighting skills becuase I was soon asked to join. I got in alot of fights as a kid, becuase I had an attitude and I was small. But I went to the gym whenever I wasnt dancing or running and I trained hard! I’m still small, but it works to my advantage, people tend to undersestimate the small ones! Maybe the ‘walkers’ as Mike calls then wont want to eat me cuz I’m just bones, I doubt it though!

I’m still meeting all our members, some of them go out on scavenging trips, and it takes a while to get back. So first there’s Mike. He’s the leader and hes fuckin’ huge! But even if his size is intimidating, I like his personality. He’s sorta rough and tough but he cares about us and we care about him. Family, Loyalty. Then there’s Ringo…. theres alot to say about him but I don’t want to write it down in case I lose this paper! Lets just say… I really like him! Sugar is Mike’s wife I think. She’s pregnant and pretty and seems kind but I don’t know her too well yet.  Zech and Vero need to just get it over with and be together! Vero is pregnant too but I guess her husband became infected and she had to kill him which is pretty sad! Her and Zech get along nicely, but Zech continues to say “Zee are just freeends!” Or however he says it in his adorable accent! They pretty much seem like more then that but its not really my business! I also met a nurse yesterday, Lucey. She kept asking if I was okay and then gave me a sandwich, but I felt skeptical of who she was so I threw the sandwich away even though I really wanted to eat it! I talked to Mike about it later, and he said she is one of us. I felt a bad about tossing the sandwich, but I don’t think she’ll find out! There’s a few more of us walking about but thats the general line-up that I’ve met so far.

Things still arent perfect though, I mean these walker things are still taking over the world! I still have nightmares about coming home that night. I just hope none of the Rangers find out. I’m trying to look strong around them. I don’t cry even if I want to sometimes, and like always, my emotions are hidden. But I can’t hide the nightmares and I just hope they wont notice. I’m assuming the worst about Ma and Dad. I havent heard from them since the infection started so I’m guessing they’re long gone by now… which I mean whatever! We enver really got along anyways, they were too involved with there own things. Some people just shouldnt have kids…..

But the past is just that, the past. Who knew I’d find out where I belong in an apocolypse?  I’m gunna go see if I can scavenge up some things for the crew and run a bit more.

Till next time…
