The next day, we were on the road at six in the morning. A low mist hung over the fields and the gray clouds in the dull sky threatened rain. We were all tired. Sam and Tanya had slept in the front seats of the vehicle, leaving the rear compartment to Lucy and me.

We found a couple of sleeping bags rolled up beneath the front seats and laid them out on the floor, but it was uncomfortable lying on cold, hard steel. I barely slept, and when I did manage to doze, I had nightmares about Joe. In my dream, he had been turned and was lurching toward me with an angry look in his yellow eyes.

So now, as we drove south from Scotland to England, I was in a bad mood. Wherever we ended up tonight, I hoped there was a proper bed.

The others seemed just as tired as I was. None of us spoke as we drove along the road. The only sounds were the rumble of the engine and pop tunes being played back-to-back on Survivor Radio. I guessed that Nick Tucker was still in bed. The man had sense.

The road was deserted. I had thought that we might see other survivors but that wasn’t the case here in Scotland. But then if any survivors saw the Mastiff rumbling along the road, they probably went into hiding. The army was rounding up everyone they could for the camps and they weren’t taking no for an answer.

In a way, I could see why they had adopted a zero tolerance policy in getting everyone into the camps. This wasn’t like any other evacuation where refusal to be rescued simply meant you might die. In the zombie apocalypse, if you weren’t put into a camp, you were probably going to add to the number of zombies the army had to deal with later.

By seven, the sky was still dull but the rain hadn’t yet begun to fall. Survivor Reach Out came on the radio. More tales of woe and lost loved ones. The desperation in the voices of the survivors looking for their sons and daughters, wives, husbands, and lovers did little to alleviate the depressed mood in the Mastiff.

But then, after the Reach Out segment had ended, a new DJ came on air. She sounded way chirpier than anyone had a right to be at this early hour. “Good morning, everyone. My name is Sasha Green and this is The Morning Show, a new radio program for all you survivors.

“Now, before we listen to some rockin’ tunes, I have a public service announcement. We all know that zombies don’t like the rain, right? Well, I’ve been asked to warn you not to try and fight the zombies with buckets of water. Apparently, some people have tried to do this and the outcome has not been good. So, zombies don’t like rain, but they aren’t afraid of a bucket of water, okay?

“Great, now to blow those morning cobwebs away, here’s The Cars and ‘Drive’.
