Zombies and Breathmints

Zombies and Breathmints
#1 in the Trilogy of Zombieworld

“Come on, come on!” I frantically scanned the isle.
“Hi!” said one of the dreadfully perky girls that were massing in the tiny store. “Whacha doing?”
“I’m looking for Altoids.” All types of breathmints take down zombies, but I prefer Altoids. Don’t ask me why they’re breathmints and not bullets, cause I don’t know. Zombies just shrug off bullets but breathmints really get them.
“Did you know that those are zombies?” She pointed, and sure enough, there were a couple zombies standing at the front of the store not ten feet away.
Thinking fast, I grabbed the nearest thing of Altoids (One of the ones with a red cover) and threw it at the closest zombie. Not looking back to see what happened, I elbowed my way through the peppy brunettes that were soon about to die. I didn’t stop to save them, because even if I could, there was no way that I was going to go through the end of the world with someone like them.
~~~~~~~~~~
Yup, it was the Zombie Apocalypse. That’s why I ran into the store to find Altoids. I had used up my last tin smashing through the window of a bright yellow SUV. There was a zombie on the sidewalk and I just reacted. It went down, but I was out of ammo.
“I gotta get more Altoids!” I yelled, already opening the car door. I didn’t stop to see the driver’s reaction, but just dashed into the nearest store.
I really hope he didn’t die. He was the cutest guy that I had seen in a long time. That’s because most of the other guys are, you know, walking undead creatures trying to kill and eat me. There were a ton of girls though. I was just glad that he had decided to travel with me.
We decided to travel together because 1. We wanted there to be someone to watch out backs, and 2. It gets kinda lonely when the world ends and all the good people get eaten.
~~~~~~~~~~
So I’m trying to get away from the zombies, with annoyingly cheerful girls getting in my way. As they were clearly idiots, there was no point in saving them now. You had to harden your heart to survive in this world.
I finally made it to the back door, and cracked it open. Since the remaining Altoids were at the front of the store, and there was no way I was going back there, I had to be careful.
Suddenly the door was yanked open from the outside. I nearly screamed, then saw that it was an almond skinned human teenager. “It’s safe back here.” She said, gesturing to the alleyway that lead out to the street. I thanked her, and she turned to walk off with her younger sister (At least they looked like sisters). “Good luck.” I called, before going back to the street.
Climbing back into the car, I panted and said “There were zombies in the store, so I couldn’t get more Altoids.”
With a groan, he stomped on the gas pedal and we shot off. “We really need to find you a new weapon.” He said. I just grinned, spotting an abandoned gas station. “Not a chance.”
He sighed, and then said, “I might as well fill up while we’re here.”
I think that we’ll do just fine.
