Sarah quickly grabs what she can, what she thinks she needs and walks outside. What she sees is an empty spot where her car use to sit. Her husband, dog and most importantly her car are gone. Sarah doesn’t know how long until those things come for her. Knowing she has to find a safer place than her home she looks around for anyone left in her destroyed neighborhood. She hears a noise and her nerves are on edge until she realizes the sound is a truck. The man in the truck is her ex, probably the last person she expected to see, and the last she wants to see. Jimmy tells her the monsters are coming and they have to get moving, and fast.
Sarah and Jimmy take off leaving the zombie apocalypse in their rear view. They hope they can get to her sisters knowing her brother-in-law, an ex-marine will know what to do. With the virus all over the country and spreading across the world finding a safe place may be challenging. Once Sarah and Jimmy reach her sister’s house they find it empty. They arrive at her sister and brother in law’s to find them gone. They spend the night at her sister’s house and Sarah stocks up on more guns and supplies as they continue their journey in an ever-changing world.
The banter and humor between Sarah and her ex Jimmy is fun to witness. It’s well placed in the upside down world of the apocalypse. Rayne Millaray kept this end of the world short story on the lighter side and a fun read. I didn’t know who to trust or what to expect as Sarah made her way through the zombie filled landscape. The story lost some momentum near the middle as Sarah and Jimmy meet a strange group of survivors. Sarah doesn’t make it to her destination but she did find her husband Max and her journey wasn’t a total loss…
