The Lost: In Reality: Part 10
I checked my surroundings to make sure there were no more walkers lurking around. Everything seemed to be “right as rain”, so I continued to make my way through the desolate neighborhood.
As I crept through the darkness I heard noises of a few walkers dragging their lifeless bodies around. Unsure where more walkers might be, I stood still with the dead of the night. I closed my eyes and became one with my surroundings. For a moment it felt like the days where I would creep through the woods with a purpose. The days where I would be the hunter, and not the hunted. I snapped out of my thoughts from the past, and I realized there was a part of the neighborhood that didn’t seem to have noise from the dead stumbling around.I followed the silence for what seemed like forever, when I finally reached the gas station. I snuck inside, and all was well. No one seemed to be inside, and I rummaged for anything that could be useful. I found a container for the gasoline, not wanting to spend longer than I needed I headed back outside. The only thing left that I needed was a tube of some sort to collect the gasoline with. I walked around the gas station and spotted a water hose on the side of the building. I grabbed my knife and cut what I needed from it.
There were a few wrecked cars, so all I needed to do now was siphon the gas from them.

I was starting to get worried about Daryl, and these two strange men weren’t helping. I needed to get inside their heads more, I needed to find out their motives. I didn’t trust them, and I know for a fact that they didn’t trust me either. Riley seemed like a loose cannon, so I decided to target him first.
“So Riley, where are you guys headed? When my friend gets back we’re probably going to head out, anywhere we should avoid?” I tried asking as generally as I could.
Riley being the crude man that he was scoffed at me. “There ain’t exactly a safe place for you to go, but if you haven’t figured out already, the big cities are crawling with them motherfuc*ers. As for where we’re going, I ain’t tellin’ you shi*. Can’t risk being followed or gettin’ killed by some chick I just met, and some as*hole I don’t know.”
I wanted to give him a piece of my mind, but there is no such thing as reasoning with an idiot. I decided to try my luck with the older gentleman that still remained unknown.
