Z Day 2 cont.- My Parents House and Beyond

I made a few wrong turns and ended up finding the highway on the wrong side of Browntown. I had to back track a little bit to get to my parents house.
Im Tyler if you couldnt figure that out. Im 28. Ive been called a loner, a stoner, a geek, a freak, a goth and a hippie. Their all sorta correct but none compleatly accurite. Im 5 foot 7 and weigh 140 pounds. Im pretty well toned muscle wise since I lift 20 to 60 pounds of steel 20 to 45 times an hour at my job. I make componets for eletrical applications on a stamping press. I have dark brown almost black hair about 4 inches long right now. It looks messy because it curls and waves all over the place. I have a thick moustache thats sandy under my nose and gets as dark as my hair at the corners of my mouth. I let the ends grow long and have them droop or curl them up as the mood strikes me. I have tatooos of a cobra curling around my left arm with a sword behind it. On my right arm I have Thors hammer and some knotwork going around my arm. I have a bloody eyeball on the back of my neck. On my left shoulder blade I have the constellation scorpio mapped out with diffrant symbols. Below it are the words " wish upon a star ". On my right shoulder blade there is a torantula holding the planet. Its standing on a dragon curled into the infinatey symbol with a penticle and pentagram in the circles. I like reading, animals and gardening and playing games. I like to watch Sci Fi and horror movies. I listen to almost any type of music when Im in diffrant moods or places. I smoke cigars and cigarettes. I drink and smoke weed rarely. I suffeer from schizo disassocative disorder, or something like that. I hear noises, not really voices, but mummbleings, screams, buzzings and beepings. Some times I drift into my own little world. I like it there everyones nice and honest. There is no murder, rape, theft or any other bad things happening. The "real" world depresses me alot. I have what I think are strange dreams. Im driving a silver PT Cruiser, I like the retro look. Im wearing black jeans, and a black OzzFest 98 t-shirt. I have a machette stuck between the seat and the counsoule next to me.

Riding shotgun and carrying a 12 gauge is Jessica. She has dark brown hair but you cant really tell because its died pink, blue, yellow, green and orange. Her hair is shoulder length. She has her eyebrow, nostral and lip peirced all on the left side. She has her tounge peirced. She also has her nipples peirced, which I found out about in a wet t-shirt contest this summer and she told me she had her clit peirced last month. I asked to see it and she said mabey if I got her really drunk and bought her 10 thongs. She would let me watch as she changes into them. It hasent happened yet. She has her whole back tatooed with a tribal design and wings. She has " bitch " on one ass cheek and "spank me" on the other. On her left wrist she has "slave", on her right " I love Jessica". She has a skeleton tattooed on top of her left foot and a demon on top of the right. She likes reading and watching the same movies as I do. She loves Maynerd from Tool and A Perfect Circle. She listens to mostly rock. She like to smoke weed and take shrooms. She smokes cigarettes and drinks sometimes. Shes 5 foot 6 and weighs about 120 pounds. Shes 24. She works with me but on lighter parts. I think shes cute but has narrrow hips. She has a bottle of Jack inbetween her legs. ( Dont drive with an open intoxicant, Im just doing it in the story. ) Shes wearing black jeans with holes in them and a black Tool shirt. She wears her jeans low so you can see shes wearing a black thong.

Behind her is Jesse, Jessicas boyfriend. I call them the Jessies. Hes has blond hair, buzzed cut. He has a barb wire tatoo around his right bicep. He also has his nipples peirced but they dont look as good as Jessicas : ). He also works with me but in a diffrant department. He likes to ride dirt bikes and four wheelers. He drinks alot and smokes alot. I think he talks alot too. Jessica got him smoking weed. Im better freinds with Jessica then him. Hes 5 foot 8 and weighs about 150 pounds. Hes 27. Jessica likes his abs. Hes wearing blue jeans and a white t-shirt. He has a .22 rifle next to him and some groceries and a 9 mm in his lap.

Behind me is Alexandria. She likes to be called Lexi. Shes about 5 foot 4 and weighs about 120 pounds. She has long red hair down to her lower back and freckles. She looks like shes in her mid 20s. She has a really nice figure, large breasts and wide hips. I think shes hot. All I know about her is that i picked her up on a corner by the highway and her husband ate her baby. I cant even imagen how much that would suck to see or what shes going through right now. Shes wearing blue jeans and a white sweater with a little blood splatter on it.

Next to Lexi is her daughter Rose. She looks like shes 4 or 5 and a little small for her age, mabey 3 foot and 30 pounds. I dont know much about children. Shes dressed all in pink. She has red hair and freckles like her mom. She hasent said anything yet.

I pull into my parents driveway and park behind the house. " Everyone out and grab something" I say as I pop the trunk open. The Jessies get out quick holding their wepons and in his case a few bags.
Lexi sits and looks around blankly for a few moments. I open the door and say, " Its alright, you dont have to grab anything if you dont want to." I offer her my hand.

As she takes it and lets me help her out she says " Thank you, its ok, Ill help. Come on Rose. " They both get out and I hand her a bag of clothes. " So this is your parents place? " I nod yes and grab another bag of clothes. I leade the way through the back door. Inside is the basement. To the left is an utility closet. To the right are some cabinets and a TV and VCR. Theres a futan in front of the TV. Next to the closet is a small dog kennel. We call it puppy jail. Above that is a dart board. Takeing up the rest of the space is a pool table. Theres a bar under the stairs. There are a pair of double doors in the right hand wall open and you can see a work room beyond. I leade the way upstairs. As I get near the top we can hear two dogs barking. I open it and have to push them back, they are excited to see me and jumping around.

" Whos that?" my step dad calls from the living room.

" Its me." I say as I turn right and go through the door way. " We are gonna stay here for a while, aleast until this shit blows over." By now I am standing in the middle of the room and the rest are standing in line behind and to the side of me. Behind me is a large entertainment center with a TV in the middle. A DVD player, VCR, and the sattalite reciever are stacked on a shelf above it. To the right is a shelf with a stero on it. Below that are more shelves with knick nacks on them. To the left are shelves with DVDs, tapes, and some books. To the left of the entertainment center if you are facing it is the front door. Next to that on the right is a door to a coat clothest. On the left is a end table with a lamp and ashtray on it. Next to that Is a couch where my mom is sitting, knitting.

" Whos we?" she asks.

" You know Jessica. This is her boyfreind Jesse. And this is Alexandria and Rose."

My step dad, Jim, is sitting in an easy chair near the couch facing the TV. On his right is a small end table holding the remote controls. Next to that and the couch is another end table with my moms craft stuff on it. To his left is a lamp, an ashtray in a cool little stand and a cabnet with more knick nacks in it. Then there is a large opening in the wall leading to the dining room and kitchen. To my left is a coffee table and a love seat next to a short wall. He says " I gald I can get off work, I just wish people werent killing people." Lexi starts to cry. Rose joins in. " Whats wrong with them?" he asks as I lead Lexi and Rose to the love seat and tell them to sit.

" Lexis husband ate her baby. " I say as I rub my temples. Im starting to get a head ache despite the alcohol and thc I had earlier.

" Oh, Im sorry." he says. I just sigh.

" I guess Ill show you to the guest room. " I tell the Jessies. " Follow me." I go out the living room through the door. " This is the bathroom." I open a door across from the basement door. "Thats my parents room." I point out down a short hallway. We walk that way, the hall turns and you see my bedroom door." This is my room. " Turn again down a little longer hallway. " And this is the guest room." Its a crowded room. In the middle of its a queen sized bed. Straight ahead of the door is a small dresser, then a closet door and agaist the wall a knick nack self with knick nacks, an encylapeidia set and some other junk on it. To the left of the door at the foot of the bed is a computer desk and stand for a printer. On the other side of the bed is a big sewing desk and work area for my mom. There is just enough room around everything to walk. We drop the bags of clothes.

" Where you want this?" Jesse asks handing me the bags.

" Oh yeah, the kitchen of course." We head back the way we came. Next to the door to the living room is a space for the washer and drier. We turn left and staight ahead is another back door to the deck. Left of that is a door to the pantry. I open it and put the bags on the floor. On the right of the back door is the fridge, then a counter with the sink and then the range and another small corner counter and some cupboards next to and above the counters, range, and sink. Theres some drawers and more cupboards below the counters. Across from the fridge is another counter with the microwave and some liquer on it. Again there are cupboards above and below. Between the kitchen and living room is the dining room with just the table and chairs. There is a sliding glass door and window leading out to the deck. The deck covers the whole of the back of the house, the whole side of the house and half the front. " Unload the rest of the car please while I talk to Jim. " I ask the Jessies. They nod and head off. " Jim I think we should head to town and get some plywood to cover the windows in case the crazies attack the house. "

" Nah...the crazies wont come way out here...will they? "

" I think they might and its better safe then sorry, right? And I think we better hurry before it gets much worse in town. "

" How bad is it? "

" I've already seen four people die. The crazies dont just kill them, they eat them. " Lexi starts crying louder and I wince. My mom was trying to comfort her and glares at me.

" And you wanna go back to town? " asks Jim. Hes about 6 foot 2 and weighs about 250 pounds. Hes 51 and has a bald spot that he tries to cover with a comb over of his grey hair. He likes to drink beer and smoke cigars. He also like to do woodworking in his basement. He likes to watch westerns on TV and at the movies. He likes country music, especally the older stuff. Hes pretty anal about keeping the house and yard clean. His white shirt and blue jeans are splattered with paints and stains. We argue about it for 10 minutes or so before the Jessies come back.

" You think we should go to town to get plywood to cover the windows? " I ask them.

" I dont want you going to town but I think you are probly right. From what Ive seen on TV the crazies are spreading and I dont think they are gonna stay in town. We should get something to cover the windows. " My mom speaks up. Shes 5 foot 7 and weighs about 160 pounds. She has reddish brown hair thats going grey at the temples. Shes 50. She like to knit, sew, and do other crafts. She likes to bake. She likes to watch court and reality TV. Shes understanding about my ecentricies. Her little speech convinces Jim.

" Fine let me get ready quick." says Jim.

" Grab your shot gun. " I tell him. " You guys comeing? " I ask the Jessies. They nod yes. I go to my room. My room is small. The left wall is sliding doors to a closet stuffed with junk. To the right of the door is my dresser. Jim made it out of solid oak and its heavy. Beyond that is my book case stuffed with fantasy and sci fi. My little bed sits between it and another shelf stuffed with DVDs. Sitting on top of that shelf is my 30/06. On top of the bookshelf is my .22 rifle. I take them both down and put them on the bed. Digging under the bed I find a couple shoe boxes and a gun case. I put them on the bed too. Inside the case is my .45 XD. I love this gun, its compact but holds a 13 round mag. I pop out the mag in the gun and check that its loaded. I put it back in and chamber a round. I carefully drop the hammer and make sure the safty is on. It came with 2 exta mags and I make sure they are loaded too. I put it in the little clip on holster it came with and set it aside. I open a shoe box and find ammo for my .22 and .45. I grab the 3 mags for the .22, make sure their loaded and put one in the rifle. Its a Remington modle 597 with a 10 round mag. It has a small 2x scope. I work the bolt and put on the safty. Then I grab my .22 revolver hanging from its holster on my beds headboard. Its old and well worn but still works. I dont even know who made it because the stamp has been worn off. I think its an H & R sportsman. It holds 9 rounds and I load it before putting it back in its holster. I open the other shoebox and find the 30/06 ammo. I take out the 3 mags for it and make sure their loaded and put one in. Its a remington modle 710 with a 4 round mag. It came with a 3-9x 40mm scope. Now I go to the closet and grab a belt and my duster. I put them on and grab the guns. I clip on the XD, put the revolver over my shoulder and walk back out to the living room. Jims ready to go saying goodbye to mom. I drop the .22s on the couch. " Just in case you need them they are loaded and the safties are on. " I tell my mom. I go looking for my Wal-Mart purcheses and pull out the other 2 machettes. I hand one to each of the Jessies. " Yall got extra ammo? Oh crap!" I go back to my room and grab the spare mags and put them in one pocket. I grab some loose 30/06 ammo and put it in the other pocket. The Jessies found belts and are strapping on the machettes. We head outside stopping at my car so I can grab my machette and strap it on. In the garage we start arguing about who rides where. Its Jims red 4x4 Dodge Ram so hes driving. The Jessies and I decide we are all gonna ride in the bed. So we set off for our next adventure....
