“Good shot, William,” Charles said, nodding at the boy next to him.

The boy’s hands were shaking; his eyes were wide and glazed. He squinted as he peered over the sight of the rifle. The tan vehicle roared back up the driveway, tires screeching. Another gunshot rocked the room from Charles’ left. He looked over at the adjacent window to find Gary grinning.

“Got the tires! They’re not going anywhere!”

Gary gripped his rifle and continued to fire.

The three of them—Charles, Gary, and William—were holed up in a two-story house across the street. After following the young man’s car back to the neighborhood, they’d parked the F150 in the woods and entered through a back window. For the past few minutes, they’d been keeping an eye on the house, waiting for its occupants to emerge.

Charles had been right in his assumption. The kid in the vehicle hadn’t been alone. There were others with him.

From now on, Charles would listen to his gut. And right now it was telling him these people needed to be smoked out and killed. The town was already overrun; the last thing they needed were more survivors to contend with.

Besides, they had a score to settle with the young man. They needed to pay him back for what he’d done to Ronnie and Jose.

Chester was theirs. If the son of a bitch thought he could hide out here, he was sorely mistaken.

The young man fled the car; with him was a young woman of about the same age. Charles wasn’t sure if they’d just met or if they were related, but he made a mental note to find out before he killed them.

A rifle shot cracked again from across the room. The bullet pinged off the vehicle. Charles looked over at his companion.

“Hold your fire, Gary. Let’s take them alive. William wants the young man for himself.” He patted the boy on the shoulder. “Right, William?”

The boy nodded.

Charles had had his doubts about William, but he was already starting to prove himself. With the boy’s father gone, Charles knew he’d have to take him under his wing. He’d never had a son of his own. All his relatives had died or disowned him.

The only person he’d ever been able to count on was himself. But now that the world was dead, he needed a few good men on his side.

“Keep watching the exits,” Charles told his companions.

The man and woman had disappeared into the backyard. By the looks of it, they’d escaped back into the house. But that didn’t matter. Charles was a patient man. The world had already ended, after all. He had plenty of time to spare.

Gary and William leaned back from the windows and hunkered down against the wall. He smiled at them.

They’d wait until nightfall, and then they’d take the survivors down together.
