Blackbird's Fall
“But it wasn’t the infected that kept him up a night, plaguing his thoughts. It was the fact he’d also had to kill a “healthy” human, one who had tried stealing his pack while Marius had napped in the forest after a long day of walking.
It was that death that had him exhausted because he couldn’t sleep at night. Every time he closed his eyes he saw the other man’s eyes widen as Marius plunged the blade in his gut. He didn’t have any other options, though, not when a knife had been pulled on him,... too.
This was a new world, one where it was kill or be killed, stay alive or be a corpse.
He set up camp in the middle of the woods, far from the road he’d been traveling on. It was safer that way, better to stay hidden from the infected, and anyone that wanted to steal his shit and cut his throat.
The fire he’d started was small, the smoke slight as it rose up to the treetops. He sat on an overturned log and reached for his backpack. He was running dangerously low on supplies, and hadn’t found anything to scavenge.MoreLess
