"I don't even know how you talked me into this" Anthony says, standing in front of Bass pro shop with Rose. "You also knocked out Trevor!" Anthony says. "Rose quickly covers Anthony's mouth. "Dude, stay quiet. We don't wanna attract the Night Lurkers." Rose says. Anthony nods and starts walking to the shop. They both look around for the camping isle. T-shirts scattered across the floor and equipment was thrashed. "There it is!" Anthony says. "SHHH!" Said Rose. "Oh, right." Anthony whispers. Then an eerie Creak comes from the entrance of the shop."What was that?" Anthony whispers. "Probably Trevor finally woke up." Rose replies. Then Big Loud Thumps comes closer, it gets louder, and louder. Then we both spot these shadowy figures. They run fast like a demon. Then they make a sound, Screech! "I knew we should have listened to Trevor." Anthony says. They duck behind some clothes, and Anthony grabs the sleeping bag and drags it next to them. Anthony covers his ears, as a Thud sound comes from somewhere near them. Anthony turns to Rose and takes his face mask off. "We gotta get back to base okay?" Anthony says. Rose looks up behind him with widened eyes. "What's wrong?!" Anthony says. "A- Antho- ANTHONY!" She yells, as the sound of drool splats onto the floor. Anthony slowly turned around. The Night Lurker stands behind Anthony, with: Darkened skin, pitch black! Glowing yellow eyes. Opened ribs, bone blades. Crazy sharp teeth and claws.

Lower jaw opens into two, that isn't normal, right? Anthony widens his eyes. " RUN!" Rose and Anthony run for their life until they hear the stomping stop. Anthony & Rose look behind to see a bat stabbed through a Night Lurkers chest. "I told you guys to not go-" Trevor says. Trevor then gets punched by a Night Lurker, "GAH!" Said Trevor after tumbling into a pile of camping supplies. The Night Lurker holds up Trevor by the neck, the Night Lurker slashes Trevors left hand clean off. "AHHHHH!" Trevor yells holding his wound. Blood starts to come out. "Trevor! Pass the bat!" Anthony yells jumping into the air. Trevor picks up the bat and throws it to Anthony. Anthony grabs the bat in mid air, and hits the Night lurker so hard its neck broke, and the head faces the other way. The zombie falls to the ground. "Goodbye Night lurker. You won't be missed." Anthony says helping Trevor up. "This is why I told you guys not to go- AHH!" Trevor yells. "Take it easy Trevor." Rose says. Anthony looks around for meds. "In the meantime, let's treat Trevors wound." Anthony says. "Yeah, no kidding sherlock." Trevor said. We look around until Rose spots something. "I found meds!" She says. Rose passes the white badges to Anthony, Anthony looks around. "We need to get back to the comic book store to get water, so I can clean the wound," He says. Anthony wraps Trevors wound with white bandages, and Rose lifts him up. "Let's go," Anthony says. "Okay let's get moving fast, we don't have to deal with more Night Lurkers." Rose says. The Trio walk back to the comic book store.

25 Minutes later….

Rose sets Trevor on a chair in the underground base. Anthony washes his hands with water, to avoid infecting Trevor's wound. Anthony grabs a bottle of water and rinses Trevors wound, cleaning it off. Anthony takes out some antibiotics that they had found in the med kit Rose had found. Anthony applies the antibiotics on Trevors wound. Anthony then recovers Trevors wound with a white bandage. Anthony looks for signs of infection, and it was all good. Anthony rubs his hands together. "All good and fixed." Anthony says, sitting on the ground. Trevor breaths and sits back. "So what are we gonna do to replace my hand?" Trevor says. "I have an idea, if I can find enough scrap parts, I can make you a robotic one to replace your old one" Anthony says. "Alright, well, we better get some rest" Trevor says.
