Dan if he had any other ideas, and he shook his head. Sarah wrote that it was better we take our chances out there instead of being stuck in a house waiting for zombies to break in.
Its weird, I thought the zombies might have broken the fence already, but the fence is really strong metal, and it hasn’t moved yet. But I understand what they’re thinking - I sure don’t want to wait around to find out if the fence will stay up. Sometimes taking a chance is the better idea. It’s better than doing nothing at all.
It’s time to go.

Barbie, I don’t even know where to start. There's so much that happened and I'm having a hard time thinking about it all.
Sarah, Dan and I got away from the house we were stuck in. Sarah and Dan's plan worked, even though it was taking a really big chance by making all the zombies follow them. But they did it, and we were able to make it out the gate. There were so many zombies around us, I wasn't sure we were going to make it.
At least it was light when we were going through the forest, and the storm was over. I was still really tired while we were running, since I didn't get much time to rest at that house. We just kept on running as far as we could, but then more zombies showed up! It's like the farther we got away from the house, the more there were. No matter which way we turned, there they were chasing after us.
Actually, I don't remember most of that time. I kept trying to stay close to Sarah, but I was so tired, my legs were hurting, the inside of my head was pounding, and I still didn't hear much. I know that I kept falling down and that Sarah and Dan kept picking me up. But then... I remember there being a lot more. A LOT more. I kept getting even more tired, I fell again and had a hard time getting up. The zombies kept getting closer, but Sarah picked me up and carried me. I feel bad about it now, being so tired and helpless, but I'm still really glad she was there. Still, we may have gotten farther if I'd have just tried harder to keep running.
I looked to my side and I saw Dan shooting at a bunch of the zombies, then he grabbed his knife and started stabbing at them! It looked like he was screaming, and it was kind of scary. I've never seen him like that before. Dan's actually a nice man, you know, when he's not arguing with Mike. He just kept on going after the zombies! I was worried that he'd get bit, and that we'd be attacked too. He wouldn't stop, even though it looked like they just kept coming.
Then a lot farther away in between the trees, I saw smoke in the sky. I wasn't sure what it was from, but it didn't seem all that far from us.
Then we stopped. Sarah tapped me and turned me to look through the trees, and when I did, I couldn't believe it. There was a bus running over a bunch of the zombies! Which meant that the road was close by! The bus wasn't going too fast, probably because there were so many zombies. Someone climbed out the top and started waving at us, and it looked like they were yelling but I couldn’t hear them. All I know is that Dan looked like he was going even faster!
Sarah started shooting at the zombies too. I was hearing it that time because it was close by, and it sort of shook the inside of my ears whenever it fired, but it wasn't hurting as bad as I thought it would.
I'm not sure how long it took, but after a long time of Sarah and Dan killing the zombies, we were getting closer to the bus, and I realized it was OUR bus, the one from home! I saw Jack standing on top of it and he was shooting down zombies. There were still a ton of them,
