Group 6 Introduction

Luke was sitting back in his truck, polishing his guns. He was a wonderer. Always on the move and living out of his truck. His two buddies, Mitchel and Karl, were his only friends. They all had different trucks and often raced to their next stop. He was waiting for the other two when he heard some shuffles. Luke moved his head, his short brown hair catching in the sunlight. His sunglasses blocked his eyes as he spat out some chewing tobacco and watched a man stumble around. He looked like he was in horrible shape, but Luke wasn't the type to help anyone. Not without a good reason.

Two girls came up to the other side of the truck, they were hunched down and looked scared. This was new to Luke. He was used to making people afraid of him rather then them coming to him and being afraid of someone else. “Can you help us?” The willowy built blond girl asked, pleadingly.

“Why should I? What would y'all need help with?” He asked them, not really caring.

“That....thing over there will kill us! Please, help.” The little ginger chick beside her said.

“Yeah. Not going to happen. Besides, how is he going to kill you? Call the damn police if you're that scared. Now, leave me the hell alone.” Luke replied, not even believing or caring about their situation.

“You don't know, do you?” The redhead asked while tilting her head a bit. “There are no police.”

“What do you mean there are no police?” Luke asked after staring at the girls for a few moments. He was sure they were crazy. How could there be no police? He wished for that his whole life!

“Those things are everywhere! The police are probably all dead!” The blond screamed, causing the man to look at her. She started backing away while her friend quickly hopped in the truck. “NO!” The blond screamed and kept going backwards.

“Lisa! Get in the truck!” The red whisper-yelled to her. Her friend didn't appear to be listening at all.

“What the hell?! Get out of my truck. And your friend isn't welcome either.” Luke stated firmly.

A woman came up behind Lisa and almost grabbed her. The girl swirled away from her arms and screamed. The man now grabbed a hold of her, biting right into her neck. The red buried her face in her hands and started to cry. Luke watched as the two ate the girl formally known as Lisa. Mitch and Karl pulled up beside him at that moment, they followed his gaze and stare in shock as well. Then, the redhead grabbed one of his pistols and hopped out of the truck. He started to go after her when she raised the gun, then shoots the man. Then the woman. “What the hell do you think you're doing?!” Luke demanded from her.

She looked at him, then stated “Surviving.” in an emotionless tone. His two buddies have now joined them. Lisa started to get up then, in a gruesome mess of a corpse. Her throat was gone, and a lot of the meat from her chest was missing, showing her ribs. The red aimed, then pulled the trigger as her friend lunged at them. She then handed the gun back to Luke and hopped back into the truck.

“You need to explain to us what is going on and right now!” Luke growled, he didn't quite trust her.

“People are attacking and eating other people. Then the ones who were attacked start eating others.” She easily replied.

“What, like zombies?!” Mitch asked incredulously. Did she expect them to believe that?

“Yes. Zombies.” She said, still devoid of emotions. She just stared blankly out the windshield.

They looked around and noticed more were coming out. It was time to leave. Pronto!
