Cindy: Thanks for the review! I’m glad you’ve liked what you’ve read so far! I hope I can keep the twists and turns coming, so this doesn’t become the usual zombie kills everyone type of story.

BlackCat03: Yes, the wall and the army and Raen being in a coma was a dream ^_^ I’m sorry it turned so confusing *much hugs*

Babmi4real: One day I’ll get paid to write! You’ll be able to say you read my work first, before I was even published! *bounces a little* As for right now…I’m really in limbo, more than anything. I don’t really know what to do or feel…so I’m in limbo. I’ll be okay…

Nnnnggg…I have the flu…goddamn crappy being sick…*eats ice cream for her sore throat*

May 5th

His name is Loki. I always liked lore, so it seemed like a fitting name. We found him abandoned in an alley dumpster, the lid closed. Xander heard him crying and we couldn’t believe he was still alive and okay. He must not have been there very long, less than a day. His mother must have left him there, hoping to spare him from being slaughtered by the walking dead. I think I would rather die quickly by zombie attack then starve to death inside a dumpster. The poor thing was wrapped in a ratty blanket and had no food or water with him.
Siska wanted to take him from me, I mean, I’m the youngest of the group, right? She said I wasn’t going to be a fit parent, especially seeing as we’re travelling right now. But Loki is still in my arms, and I refuse to let Siska be the one to take care of him.
And it isn’t just because I was the one who climbed into the dumpster, either. Loki needs a stable family, and I think Xander and I would be a better family than Siska, especially when the girl has her sudden fits of zombie slaughtering rage.

“Did you change his diaper and feed him?”

“Yes Siska.”

“Did you burp him?”

“Yes. Siska.”

“What about – ”

“I’m making sure he isn’t dying Siska! I know how to take care of a baby!” Xander heaved a sigh, watching his boyfriend and his new best friend argue with one another. He could easily admit that, while Raen was still young and inexperienced, he really was doing a good job at taking care of baby Loki. The boy was healthy, as far as they could see, and Raen was better at taking care of Loki than he was at taking care of himself.

“I just think that he would benefit from having a mother,” Siska tried again, and Xander rolled his eyes at the girls attempt at logic.

“I’m pretty damn sure I’m gay enough to be considered a mother!” Raen nearly shouted, clenching one fist at his side. Loki fussed a little at Raen’s loud voice before he started crying.

“Look what you did! You woke him up!” Siska huffed, crossing her arms over her chest. Raen glared at the brunette and turned his back on her, gently rocking Loki against his chest. Xander took this moment to usher Siska away from his upset boyfriend, not that they were able to really go that far. The group was hiding in an abandoned camping trailer they had found in the middle of a forrest. Raen had been compelled to travel out of their city and out into the country, though he hadn’t been able to explain why. The further they got from the city, the quieter the undead got and the more at ease Raen felt.

“Just leave him alone already,” Xander insisted, resting one hand on Siska’s shoulder. “He’s doing his best, and he’s taking care of Loki just as well as you probably would have.”

“But…I’m the woman!”

“I’m pretty sure that no one is going to give a shit about that, especially with what has been going on. Raen is happy. Loki is happy. And you know what? I’m happy to have Raen and Loki. It’s like I have a realy family, and I really don’t want you to keep screwing that up.” Siska looked at though she was going to strike Xander in the face before she simply let out a loud sigh and nodded. The last thing the group needed was to be fighting one another, especially when it could lead to them being discovered by the walking dead. The two watched as Raen curled himself up on the large master bed of the camper, Loki resting peacefully in his arms with a bottle of formula. Luckily they had been able to secure a large amount of powdered formula, even if it had meant that their water supply was becoming even more rapidly depleated. With the spring season coming up, Raen had no worries about their water. The rain was going to come at least once a week, if not more, and it would be easy to fill their bottles again and again.

“So…Where are we going tomorrow?” Siska asked quietly, though she still wanted to demand that Loki be given over to her.

“We’re going to find the road this trailer came in on and then we’re going to follow that,” was the short answer that came from Raen.

“What’s down that road?”

“The army base, where we’ll be safe.” Even Xander had to stare at his boyfriend, wondering how Raen knew what was further up the road.

“What?” Raen lifted his head from watching Loki nurse on the bottle they had gotten, raising one of his eyebrows at both the blonde and the brunette standing near him. Siska shook her head some, sitting down on the edge of the bed.

“How do you know there’s an army base?” Xander asked, moving closer to the three other members of his group. He leaned himself against the bathroom door, arms crossing over his chest.

“When I was kocked out, I didn’t just dream,” Raen explained softly, taking note that Loki was starting to fall asleep. “I think it was a premonition…”

Sorry guys…That’s it. A cliffhanger was needed, and I need to sleep. Damn flu…I’m sorry if it sucked.
