I Am a Survivor/Episode 1

This is the first episode of I Am a Survivor.

## Synopsis

“Keep
quiet,” Christine warns Charlie sternly. They are currently hiding silently
behind a van hoping the horde of walkers will pass by. Charlie grips his
crowbar tightly, preparing himself if any walker arrives. Charlie took a glance
at Christine who arms herself with a revolver.

Charlie took
a peek at the horde hoping none of the walkers see him but a walker turned
around and saw Charlie. “Oh shit,” he mutters in silent.

The walker
lets out a faint groan before approaching him. *I’m not taking any chances.* Charlie rushes towards the walker and
swings his crowbar across the walker’s head killing him. “There we go.”

Christine
rushes out and drags Charlie back to the back of the van before whispering.
“What the hell Charlie? You nearly got us killed!”

“But I didn’t,”
Charlie sighs. “The horde didn’t see us, it’s just one walker.”

Christine
shook her head before saying. “Let’s get out of here before another herd comes
around.” Charlie nods and both of them immediately fled from the area.

Both of them
are exploring an abandoned city, the streets are filled with rubbish and
there’s a lot of corpses on the ground. *This*
is a wasteland*, Charlie thoughts to himself.* He glances to his left *to see*
a dying walker crawling towards him. *Hello*
*there*.

He raised a
foot before stomping on the dying walker, finally killing it. “Rest in peace,” Charlie
spat.

Charlie
turns his gaze to Christine; he watched her as she takes out her water bottle
and began drinking it. Charlie gazes as she gracefully swings her air around.

Christine
found Charlie to be staring at her. “What are you looking at?”

Charlie
immediately looked away. “Nothing…”

Christine smiled before calling Charlie. “Hey
Carl, come here…” Charlie did as he was told and Christine reached into her bag
and hands Charlie a water bottle. “Here take it.”

“Thanks,” Charlie
accepts the water and begins drinking it.

They sat
down silently for a few minutes; there are no signs of life besides them.

Christine
stood up and sighed. “Let’s move.”

Charlie nods
and picks up his crowbar. They began wandering around the abandoned city until
they found two walkers stumbling around.

“Do you want
to kill them or I kill them?” Christine asks Charlie while reloading her gun. Charlie
gazes at his crowbar for a second before answering. “I kill them.” Christine
watches as Charlie approaches the two walkers before slashing both of them with
his crowbar.

Charlie
turns back to Christine and muttered. “Done.”

Christine
gives Charlie a nod before saying. “Alright then, let’s continue going.”

*Whoa, she is hard to impress.* Charlie thoughts as he watched as Christine
began walking gracefully on the street. After walking for a few minutes, Christine
suddenly froze and whispered to Charlie. “Stop, I heard a groan.”

They stopped
moving for a few seconds and sure enough a walker emerge out from the shadows
and began approaching them.

“I kill it
this time,” she says confidently before firing her gun to the walker killing it
instantly.

It was
seriously hard when she shoots with her gun, soon enough a lot of walkers
emerged out of the shadows and slowly making their way to the duo.

“Oh shit,”
she cursed and began firing her gun at the incoming walkers.

“Stop
shooting,” Charlie yells before he began killing walkers with his crowbar. “The
gunshots are only going to attract more walkers!”

She
immediately pulls her gun back into her pocket. “I’m sorry.”

“Never mind,
just focus on staying alive.”

Charlie
swings his crowbar at several walkers, killing some of them. He glances at Christine
whose busying stabbing walkers in the head with her kitchen knife.

“How’s the
small knife?” Charlie taunts. Christine turns to Charlie and snarls. “Lightly
than your heavy crowbar.”

Charlie
laughs and kills another walker. “That’s a good thing, I guess.” Charlie turns
to Christine and was shocked to see a walker approaching Christine from behind.
Oh no you don’t!

He charged
forward and slashes the walker behind Christine, killing it; she immediately turned
around and thanked Charlie. “Thanks for saving my life.”

“You’re
welcome.”

As they
continued killing walkers, they noticed there are getting more than getting
less.

“We need to
get out of here,” Charlie warns. Christine slits a walker’s forehead before
replying. “I know but where can we turn to?”

In the
middle of killing walkers, a pickup truck suddenly arrived and the driver got
out from the truck and began shooting walkers with his shotgun. “Come on, get
in!” Charlie and Christine didn’t have time to say anything so they immediately
rushed towards the truck and get on the back of the truck. “Let’s go!” Charlie
yelled and the driver immediately drove away.

“Damn, you
guys nearly got killed,” the man laughs as Charlie thanked him. “Thanks for
saving our lives.”

“Don’t
mention it,” the man tells him before introducing himself. “My name is Xavier,
what’s yours?” Charlie wipes the blood of his crowbar with a cloth and
answered. “My name is Charlie and this is my friend Christine.”

Xavier
continues on driving before asking. “Where are you folks heading at anyways?
You guys got a place to go?”

Charlie
shook his head and answered. “No, we’re just trying to survive.” Xavier lets
out a smile before suggesting. “Why don’t you come back to my place? I’m sure
my friends will gladly accept you.”

Charlie
settled with a nod.

“Alright,”
Xavier turns his attention back to the road.

Christine
suddenly grabs Charlie by the shirt and whispered to him. “Do you think we can
trust him? We just know him.”

“Relax, if
it a trap. We can just kill him.” Charlie reassures her. “We’ll be fine.”
