"and boom came bombs falling from the sky like rain, no one knew why, no one how it just happened"an old guy said stareing high up at the sky when he noticed something falling from The sky

  What could it possibly be? He wondered still stareing up at the tiny dot on the blue sky. This object became clearer the more it approached the floor and soon they realized it wasn't just a tale after all but, there really were bombs falling from the sky.

  In one big bang the entire settlement was wiped out ,only but a little girl survived. Realizing she was alone and had no one to feed her she had to fend for herself.

  FALLING METAL

  .

  The car sped up through the rough roads of fallen region, they knew about this because smoke had told them about it earlier on and had also told them that after getting through the fallen region came the zone, then freedom.

  There were too many fallen builds, too many infected and too many destroyed everything out here the crew understood immediately why it was called the fallen region. The atmosphere in the car was heavy, no one had uttered a word since they started their trip, the little girl was confused as to how unlively the car was, she wanted to speak or ask a question, she so desperately wanted but she was concerned something was going to happen if she did. After much thoughts on the matter she decided to speak regardless of what the consequences might be.

  "You two know each other or just let as you did with me?" She asked stareing at Zack then diverting her gaze towards Chloe

  "You two have been acting weird since you picked me up, I'm I the reason You don't wanna speak or was there something going on before I joined on?" She asked again hoping she got a reply from at least one of them but no one said anything.

  Sitting back quietly she observed stareing at Zack, then back at Chloe. Chloe was stareing at Zack, she acted like she wanted to say something to him but she just couldn't muster up enough courage to do so.

  After several hours of driving they could see it...., it was right in front of them, the devastating sight infront of them sent chills right down they're spines as they had never seen a sight this bad before, not even during the spread of the virus.

  "It's worst than I heard......, I'm not in the city but I can still feel the heat radiating from it" the girl said getting off the car "no infected around?....., like back where we came from , it that I'm complaining or anything like that" she continued walking even closer to take a look at the ruin infront of her.

  The buildings were falling apart due to extreme heat, the heat of the sun wasn't just affecting the city but was also affecting things close to it, and also the infected in the city. Using a binoculars she could tell the infected in the city we're mutated, they had different colours and they emmited a lot of steam from their body while they walked "one bites all it takes to take you out" she concluded dropping the binoculars then walking back to Zack.

  "You got a plan to get across right?" She asked stareing at Zack, why was he so grumpy, why wasn't he saying anything?, what the hell had gone on before she joined them she wondered still stareing.

  "Yes" Zack replied walking ahead while she followed behind

  "I'm suta, but you can call me su? And you are?" Su introduced, she smiled, she knew she was getting somewhere as he had said something, she knew she could force him into a conversation.

  "Call me Zack" Zack responded trekking back towards a huge facility outside the fallen city in front of them.

  "Big brother's actually fine with me" su joked but Zack didn't respond to her comment he just kept on walking.

  Approaching the facility Zack could count four infected, could be more but those were the visible ones, grabbing a dagger he quietly snuck behind everyone of the killing them instantly, he then slowly approached the door to a tiny building close to the main building of the facility. With a countdown he forced the door open, there were no infected within only lead-lined suits within nine of them he could count.

  "Thanks for the tip smoke"Zack thought letting out a smile while heading in.

  "C'mon get changed....., we'll need this to get across to the other side" Zack said taking one of the suits and heading out the door where he met Chloe.

  "So?.., what's up Zack..... you're not acting like you" Chloe asked but with a stare he attempted to walk past her but before he could she held him back from moving trapping him in and not letting him walk out on her

  "You can try forcing me off if you want but trust me it'll be pointless"Chloe commented watching su get close to the door.

  "Hope I'm allowed out, this ain't ma shit you wanna sort out" su joked walking past Chloe whose gaze and attention were all fixed on Zack.

  "You've not been speaking, acting like you don't care and not acting like you since that town..., what's going on?" Chloe asked, she needed an answer one he held.

  "Now you wanna talk?........, smoke died and you shut yourself completely....you didn't say nothing and when you did it came out all harsh, you shut yourself off from me, from what we've believed in for a long time, from our little team why?" Zack asked his expression concerned not angry Chloe could read him like a book after being with him for a long time, but even after knowing this she had no reply why couldn't she answer his question even though she knew the answer to it?, was she scared?, she shouldn't be, she had never been scared of nothing at least not with the memory she had,

  "What?...... can't answer? Thought so......." Zack said again this time grabbing Chloe's arm, "just let me go Chloe"Zack smiled, Chloe could feel the pain in his voice while he smiled she wanted to speak but her words got stuck in her throat and she seemed to be having a hard time speaking.

  "Lets just focus on getting across to the other side, once we're safe...., then we can chat how ever yh want Chloe...no please just release me"Zack pleaded, he had tried setting himself free but Chloes super human strength went beyond his,his effort proved fruitless against her strength while he tried seriously himself from her grip. Not sure what she wanted to say she let him go watching him walk away she grabbed her suit before they could proceed with the next phase of the plan.

  "Now?....what what do we do?" Su asked

  "We get across of course,behind those doors are tunnels underneath the city, tunnels used by the government to transport nuclear weapons without being spotted....., also those tunnels connect all part of this city and and run through the city, with a perfect map we can get through from underneath to the other side, besides we have to hurry up, it's getting dark" Zack explained pointing up at the sky, it was getting darker, and they had to get to somewhere with a bit more light since they were on uncharted territories.
