[b]Katie - motel - Tyler, others[/b]

Katie walked slowly with her daddy. The streets were really quiet. She hated quiet. It meant something bad would probably happen.
They had a small group now. Katie wasn't sure how she felt about that. She liked being just her and her daddy. That way no one had the chance to hurt them. And she didn't get attacked to anyone who would die. Like Lauren.
When she closed her eyes sometimes, she could still see Lauren's face explode. It was what gave her nightmares and made her cry at night. But her daddy was always there to hold her and make the nightmares go away for a little while.

Katie also held her kitten close. The new boy, Liam, worried her. He was close to her age but he acted... funny. Like there was something wrong with him. It made her nervous. Could she trust him to not hurt her or her kitten? Could she trust him not to get sick and die?

They went through the motel, killing sick people as they went. Katie was sad for them. They had been people once, just like her mommy and big brother before they had gotten sick and become monsters.

But then they met someone who was not sick, but still acted strange. And he seemed to know her daddy but called him by the wrong name. Katie looked up at her daddy wide-eyed. When the man said something about kids she gasped a little and backed away, hiding behind her daddy's legs.

[b]Jessalyn - Road - Abram, Leah, Turisa[/b]

Jess watched as Abram went towards a young girl. She looked hurt. The motherly part of Jess immediately wanted to race over and comfort her but they needed to be safe. She kept an eye out for anything coming their way while Abram checked her out then led her over.

She smiled and adjusted Ben on her shoulder in order to hold out her hand to the girl. "Hi there Leah. I'm glad we came along and met you. Abram will take good care of your leg. He's a good guy."

She would have said more but the car came out of no where right then. Abram helped Leah off of the road but the car was speeding too fast plus it was weaving. Jess tried to race off the road only to have the car weave in her direction. Jess screamed and covered Ben, trying to protect him with her body.
The car swerved at the last second, avoiding Jess and Ben. The tires squealed as the person slammed on the brakes and screeched to a stop a few yards up the road.
Ben started screaming at the loud noise and bad smell of burning rubber. Jess cuddled and tried to quiet him.
"Abram!" she cried.
