<br/>
ash had gone over to the heavy door and opened it up trying to be as careful as she could to not make sounds. by now the sun had settled and the darkness filled the air making it somewhat dark down below but still ash slowly climbed down. she darted to the right, taking care of the few zombies in that direction. ash had tried to be as silent as possible. they could kill off this group of zombies without alerting any others if they were stealthy enough. she dipped past aisles and took a few that weren't aware of them from behind, putting them out of their misery. she felt bad for the people who the zombies once were. were you aware that you were a zombie? did the soul die and move on or were they in there and forced to watch as their bodies do unspeakable things to people without you having any control over it? that'd be worse than hell itself. <br/>
<br/>
she grabbed hold of the doors to the building next, pushing them open as jacob came to join her. they didn't have much time before the other walkers saw them. "alright, watch my back i'll watch yours." she'd trust him to watch her as she ran as well. ash could hear the sound of zombies as them both. ash was able to dip between the few in her direction. she took down the ones she could but there were already other zombies beginning to chase after her. and just their luck these ones were fast. <br/>
<br/>
when ash got to the truck she practically ripped the drivers side door open and jumped inside, slamming it shut. the keys were forced into their slot but with a startle ash had jumped when she heard the loud sound of zombies running up to the car and hitting it with their bodies trying to get inside. she couldn't let it distract her, though, jacob wouldn't last much longer with the zombies all after him. she turned the keys and felt her heart shrink as she heard the engine start up and die back down. "shit...oh fuck shit!" she grumbled "not today...come on turn on!" she pleaded with just about every god out there. she turned it a couple times again with the same result. the zombies began to bang on the windows leaving cracked streaks. whatever god answered her she was absolutely greatful for because finally the car started up. she stepped on the break and the car took off forward with the zombies following behind. thankfully they were slow enough that they didn't outrun the car. <br/>
<br/>
up the street ash could hear the shots of guns and followed it. the crowd had doubled by the time she got there and jacob was at the head. ash took a deep breath and floored it, running through the hoard. zombies one after another hit against her car and over the roof, flying back behind and hitting the ground yet not dying. the car bumped and jostled against the ones that she was trampling over. it was a miracle she mad it through. ash got to the front, slowing down a bit but not stopping completely in order to let jacob in and yet keep the zombies away. she leaned over and pushed the door open. <br/>
