Snippet #2312616

Morgan's gray eyes were locked on the her surroundings. Her lips were pulled into a taunt line as she slowly stroked Milano's gray fur. She resided on the roof an abandoned shopping center that she just looted with her long tan legs dangling off the edge. She could see the undead moaning and thirsting for flesh, but what really fascinated her was the distance between her and sudden death. Just one push and she would be away from this world...away from them. She nibbled on her bottom lip absentmindedly as the thought flowed through her mind like a overfilled dam. Just one push...Milano's barking bought her back to reality.

"Are you hungry, Lano?" she smiled, pushing the suicidal thoughts from her head. She picked up the barking pup and kissed his forehead. "Okay, give me a second." Morgan rummaged through her trusty knapsack, pulling out a dog treat and a bottle of water. As Milano ate, Morgan gently brushed her fingers over his tail while staring at the savage beasts beneath her. "One day," she frowned. "We'll make it through this, Milano. We'll survive."
