The end was near, but not for this family. The hunters, they all were smart but all in there own special way. There was Lilly Hunter She loved music and she knew everything there was to know about it. Then there was her brother Jack he loved hunting he knew every little thing about if from the animals to what to use on them. The father and mother both talented with tools, they owned a work shop.

This family was quite and liked to keep to themselves.On random night Lilly woke up it was almost three in the morning, She checked her phone to see there was a major storm heading there way. She woke up her family, all of them ran down to there bunker, hiding from the storm. There bunker was a tad creepy, with just enough space to sleep but not enough to move around, it was every cramped. That was probably because of the shelf of food they had in there. Lilly and her mother both fell asleep on a blanket while jack and the father where sleeping on the cold hard floor.

When they had awoke that next morning, they all climed out of the bunker to find a distorted world. The trees had lost all the leafs, the roads were more cracked than before, all the doors to the next door houses were open but there was no one to be seen.

The mother and father left Jack and Lilly at the house while they all looked around. The parents went into the forest looking for extra supplies. They heard footsteps close behind, as they turned around all they could see was the monster who was about to attack them a bear mixed with panther. Jack and Lilly were left alone at this point, no parents, no friends, just wondering the world they once knew.

Lilly was the next to go. She got supper sick after eating some deer meat the Jack had cooked up for them. After Lilly died jack was completely alone, wondering what was left of the world.He traveled for years and years, slowly he was turning into one of those monsters. His skin would boil, he would crave flesh, slowly craving raw meat. He couldnt reconize him self, he was giving up on whom he was before. He couldnt handle it anylonger he just wanted to left go. So he tried that night, but something or someone stoped him. He couldn't let go he felt as if he needed to help someone or like someone needed him.

He was walking down the road to go and raid some houses. He walked into a two story house and found a little girl hiding in a closet. She was very skinny it looked like she hasn't ate in days, she was almost five, he picked her up and gave her some food.She was scared at first but after awhile she got uesd to him. They were helping each other, he had found a little house, with two rooms and running water.He helped her decorate her room with what they could find. He taught her to fight and cook.

She was his little helper, eventually he got older and so did she, as he got weaker she got stronger. They helped rebuild the world by finding more survivors. They had there own little community. The end eventually became the beginning of a new.

After a while Jack was bed bound, the little girl he once knew was a strong woman, she was likes his daughter. With his last breath he explained to her how she saved him and how much he loved her. After that she continued what they built together.
