The sweat was dripping down Teresa’s back, her shirt clung to her skin as she crept over the broken sticks and orange leaves. It was October, yet it was the warmest Autumn she could ever remember.Â
She’d lived in Atlanta, Georgia since she was a child, when it had been a booming metropolis and not this hell.  Her mother had worked in one of the buildings downtown and one day she never made it home from work. Teresa and her father had holed up in their apartment for weeks scavenging one apartment and then the next until the food and water ran out.
Teresa sucked in a sharp breath and stopped frozen at the sound of leaves crunching somewhere ahead of her. She had been heading in the direction of a large metal track, it had once been the framework of a roller coaster she had ridden a few short years ago. She recognized it off I-20 but she knew better than to walk too closely to the road. Roads didn’t offer enough shelter and they offered a lot of traffic, both living and the undead.She didn’t trust anyone anymore. She didn’t want a companion.They’d simply be another person to worry about; another person to care about, she thought to herself , though she tried to pretend that she didn’t. Caring only makes you weak, vulnerable… stupid even.
After it was the living that had killed her dad, she wanted nothing to do with anyone. If she died, she died on her own terms, by her own mistakes. She refused to let her well-being be a burden on another person’s conscience, she refused to let anyone else die because of her.
Teresa crept forward slowly, still unable to make out the source of the noise she had heard only moments before. She couldn’t see any walkers or any living but as she paced closer she could see the aluminum posts of a gate. As she got closer she realized that it loomed high, higher than she ever remembered. There would be no going over it, she would have to follow it around.
She traced her fingers over the metal fencing as she walked, one hand poised on the knife at her hip until she saw them. People, living people in the distance, on the inside.
Teresa was torn between pushing forward and turning back. Her instincts told her to get away, run, but her stomach ached and she hadn’t slept in days. She backed away from the fence, taking cover in the shade of the trees so she could watch the people without being seen. Eventually, as the sky began darkening, she found herself creeping toward the fence. She hoped it was safer in there with them, than it was out here with the walkers.
