2 Episode 2- The Road (2/2)

”Yeah thats dumb.” John says rolling his eyes.

Carrie sighs. ”Look John. Maybe Mike is right. It is getting dark and we wont be in the town until way later.” she pleaded.

John sighed. ”Fine..” He looks at Mike. ”Where did you see this farmhouse?”

A couple minutes later they were walking the way they came. They needed to find this farmhouse. Soon it would be dark. But as they all waked down the road they notice a car that wasnt there before.

”Thats weird” John says looking at the vehicle.

”Yeah. This car was not here before.” Carrie says looking inside the car. It looked empty.

”Someone must be around” John said looking around.

”John the keys are still in the keyhole.” Mike said opening the driver side. When he does a odor starts to fill the air.

”Ah! What is that?” Carrie says covering her nose. ”Its awful” She looks inside the car but this time in the backseat. She suddenly screams and runs away from the car. She starts to puke.

Mike and John give each other worried looks. They quickly run to where Carrie was and see a little baby in a car seat. It was of course dead. It looked like something or someone took chucks out of its little frame.

John pushes Mike out of the way. ”Okay lets keep moving.” He acted tough but inside he was freaking out. 'Maybe they were right about all this' he thought.

”How....what...” Mike looked at the ground. ”Who would be so cruel to such a innocent thing.” he too was scared. All he wanted to do was be home. With his family. 'Please oh please let this be a dream' he sighed.

As Mike and John started walking again Carrie noticed something on the ground. She went to it. It was a blanket. She unfolded it and her eyes widen. The blanket had the same symbol as her jacket. 'Why did a babies blanket have this kind of thing on it.' she thought. Suddenly she saw something else under the car. She reached for it and saw a shot. She than realized the babies blanket and this shot both had the same symbol on her shirt. She felt something on her hand. She smelt it. ”Gas?” she looked under the car. ”Gas!” She walked away fast from the car.

John and Mike stopped and looked back at her.

”Lets go!” John shouted.

”Carrie come on!” Mike said as he wanted to move along.

Carrie shook her head. ”Whatever. Its not important.” She put the shot in her jacket and started to walk to them when gun shots were heard.

”Quickly everyone down!” John yelled.

They all fell to the ground. The gun shots were loud and close. Suddenly they stopped.

”Is it safe?” Mike asked John hoping this would be over.

”Yeah I think so” he said getting up. He looked over at Carrie. ”Come on. Before whoever that was knows we are here”

Carrie shook her head and ran towards them so she could catch up.

As they walked no one spoke. The baby was still on their minds...
