Starting point is 00:00:50 I don't know. I'm going to be. We're going to be. I slog through the mud and leaves as the rain poured down. I can see five feet in front of me at best. Roland, Julia, and I were able to get out of the overturned car. Alan was able to climb out, but he stumbled off the other way. This way. This way.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Are you sure? I see lights. How's their power? Probably floodlights. My parents have a generator. Do you see them? There. I looked up through the thick tree cover.
Starting point is 00:02:24 barely make out a light, a beacon. Gunfire. We never saw what happened to the other car. Roland was able to kill one of the creatures which allowed us to escape our wreckage, and we never looked back. What if they don't make it? Just keep running. Roland panted loudly, but she was carrying extra weight. She lugged her bag after pulling it from the broken trunk.
Starting point is 00:03:05 I see it. This way. Julia pushed past us as we emerged from the woods. We ran past a huge wheat field. We ran up a hill. Come on! We ran up to the house. Mom! Dad! Do you have a key? No, but they told me where they hide one.
Starting point is 00:03:34 Julia tried looking in through the window. Come on. Let's find that spare key and get inside. Now. Okay, this way. In the back. We ran around the large two-story house. A few dim lights were on inside. There was no car in the driveway. I doubted her parents were here, although I knew she held out hope.
Starting point is 00:04:00 It's over here. Julia led us to a rock garden by the back porch. She overturned one that was almost completely submerged. She reached into the muddy water and pulled out a key. Let's get inside. We went to the back door. Julia quickly opened it, and we were safely inside. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:04:27 I'm going to be able to be. I don't know. POMAYOR. I couldn't believe three months later, and here I am again, trapped. I looked at my bandaged wrists. This could have all been avoided. Julia! Julia was searching every room for her parents.
Starting point is 00:05:33 but it was obvious they weren't here. Do you think those things got them? She came down from upstairs. I don't know. Their car's gone. I couldn't find them earlier, so maybe they went to Charlott and they got stuck there during the storm?
Starting point is 00:05:51 That's possible. I could see Julia fighting back tears. We need to fortify this place. I haven't heard anything in a while. Me either. What if no one else makes it? Then they don't, but we need to make sure this place is safe. Julia, can you find flashlights, lanterns, anything?
Starting point is 00:06:12 But the generator? The generator may go out. There are lanterns in the barn. No, no one leaves the house. Not right now. Find what you can in here. Okay. I walked over to a window and peered out towards the barn and silo.
Starting point is 00:06:28 Two floodlights brighten the area. David, help me move furniture. Help me block the windows. I did. Roland and I moved about the living room and den, stacking furniture. Those creatures can be killed, so if we could just fortify this place. It doesn't work. Eventually... Eventually, we'll make it out of here.
Starting point is 00:07:04 We just have to let the storm pass. The streets will be clear. We don't have a car, Roland. No, but we have a gun, and that's good enough for now. Until more of those things show up? We'll make do. They'll keep coming. They won't let us go easily. David, you and I made it out once.
Starting point is 00:07:27 We could do it again. But there are a lot of people who didn't make it out. We made our way through the hall. We passed by the front door, and I startled. A man's face stared at me in the tiny window of the door. Jesus Christ, I stumbled back. Open up. Roland quickly opened the door.
Starting point is 00:07:49 A flash of lightning showed Steve and Charlie on the porch covered in mud and leaves. They barged in. Roland shut and locked the door behind them. You made it. Yeah, thanks for the help. Help. You ran into us. Did you see those fuckers out there?
Starting point is 00:08:04 They jumped my damn car. What happened to the others? You mean before or after they ripped them apart? Easy, man. I'm sorry, but what the fuck were those things? Steve still had his gun. He gripped it tightly. Beth and Esther are dead.
Starting point is 00:08:21 Are you sure? Steve nodded. Did you see Alan? No, I couldn't see shit out there. Wasn't he with you? He ran off. We should have stayed in the damn diner. Can I ask him?
Starting point is 00:08:32 a question. Steve walked around us, surveying the room. What? What is going on here? What do you think? We're fortifying this place so those things don't get in. I'm not talking about the room. I'm talking about this. Out there. What the fuck was that? Something that
Starting point is 00:08:52 can't be easily explained. Try. You saw the same thing we did. I want an answer. And I want one now. He raises his Gun at Roland. Steve, man, what the fuck are you doing? They know what's going on.
Starting point is 00:09:09 Even her. Me? No. Bullshit. I saw the awkward glances in the diner, and you kept asking his opinion on everything. Yeah, what was that? They were so adamant about leaving the diner. It wasn't safe there.
Starting point is 00:09:23 Are we really safe here? You have a couch against that window. These things tore apart my car. There's no flooding. We have light. There isn't a truck parked inside. Beth and Esther are dead. We didn't know that would happen.
Starting point is 00:09:36 What do you know? Put the gun down. Tell us. Put the gun down. I just saw my co-workers. My friends ripped apart. What is going on? Help!
Starting point is 00:09:52 Help! That's Alan! Everyone turned their attention to the screaming. That's when Roland struck. She lunged at Steen of knocking the big man to the ground. They wrestled over the gun. Oh, shit. I jumped on Steve and plied the gun from his hands, careful not to pull the trigger.
Starting point is 00:10:10 I yanked it and stumbled back. Roland gave him a kick to the stomach and got up. Sone of a bitch. Oh, it wasn't going to do anything. Just in case. Roland shot Charlie a look. Hey, whoa, I didn't know he was going to do that. I don't have a gun.
Starting point is 00:10:31 Help! We left Steve on the floor as we went to the near window. We pulled back to now vertical couch and looked out. Alan was crawling out of the woods. He appeared to be more injured than before. Help! Somebody help him. I turned around to see Steve getting up.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Roland. Don't worry. You stay where you are. Roland unclipped her gun and kept her finger near the trigger. Don't just stand there. Help him. Take a couple steps back. Fine, fine.
Starting point is 00:11:10 Help! Please help! There's things out there. So, you're all just going to stand there and watch. Guys! Holy shit! I expected to see a creature come out of the woods, but it wasn't. No.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Instead, the tall man with a pale face appeared. axe in hand the man approached Alan as he crawled that's when I noticed he didn't have a pale face he was wearing a mask a porcelain doll mask Alan flipped onto his back the man with the axe stood by Alan's feet
Starting point is 00:11:48 and cocked his head the axe was slowly raised help me help him shit help me a flash of lightning and the axe came down no David
Starting point is 00:12:02 Watch him. Roland pointed at Steve, then flung open the front door. Hey! The masked man didn't stop. He kept hacking. Roland raised her gun and fired. She hit the man each time, but he didn't stop. Roland!
Starting point is 00:12:26 Roland, stop wasting bullets. Once Alan was a twitching mess, the masked man grabbed his leg and pulled him into the darkness of the woods. What the fuck? Roland lowered her gun and shut the door. Who was that? Roland pushed the couch back, blocking the window. David, go ahead. Tell them what's going on. Paralyzed.
