The Dead Road: the Complete Collection
“The radio signal we heard from Maybridge, Vermont was still faintly audible through the haze of white noise. "Avoid Stockton" it said, "all dead." Roger drove. Eli sat in the front sit, cradling my hunting rifle like a kid with his favorite stuffed animal. I lay in the back, my foot elevated, hanging in a makeshift sling suspended from the laundry hook above the door. It hurt, but at least it had stopped bleeding. It was probably infected.
Roger leaned back a bit to make sure I heard what... he was saying. "Maybridge is coming up. Ten more minutes I'd say." I leaned up on my elbows. "Try to find a pharmacy or something. I need to clean out this cut and get it bandaged." Eli snickered, "And a shoe store." Roger chuckled. Sure the joke was at my expense, but right now I wasn't going to begrudge a little bit of a laugh. I smirked and lay back down. "Yeah, one running a sale on hiking boots." We drove the rest of the way in silence. For that glorious moment I could almost forget that the world was being overrun by monsters.MoreLess
