-The Next Day -

Nick was laying on the bed, he was  sleeping.

He opens his eyes and sees Tate, standing there by the door.

Tate smiled at him.

It was daylight out.

“Hey Tate.” Nick said

“You must of been tired, you slept for hours. Noah did tell me that you didn't sleep much. He said you were worried about us and wouldn't sleep until you saw that we were okay.” Tate said

Nick nods his head “Sorry.”

“It's fine. But, now that you are well rested, do you want to go look for supplies with me?”

“Just us two?”

Tate nods his head “Yeah, we're a team.” he said, smiling more

Nick smiles “Ok. Sure, let me just grab something.”

“I'II wait downstairs.” Tate said as he walked out the door.

Nick gets up and puts his hat on.

He grabs his knife and goes downstairs.

Nick sees Tate, waiting by the door, with a pistol in his hand.

Tate saw Nick, walking towards him.

“Let's go.” Tate said

Nick nods his head again.

They go out the door and into the woods.

---------------------------------------------------

Nick and Tate were talking and smiling.

They see a building up ahead.

It's the building that Nick saw Seth and Craw near it.

“Seth told me that he saw this building but, didn't have a chance to look in it.” Tate said

“Hopefully it will have supplies in it.” Nick said

Tate nods his head, agreeing with him.

They go inside and it's very dark in there.

Tate takes out a flashlight and turns it on.

All of a sudden, a lurker tries to grab Tate.

Nick takes out his knife and stabs the lurker in the head. It fells to the ground, dead.

“Thanks.” Tate said

Nick smiled and nods his head.

---------------------------------------------------

-A few minutes later -

They have been looking around for awhile and haven't found nothing.

Nick sighed “Let's just head back.” he said

“Wait a second, this looks interesting.” Tate said

Nick looks at Tate “What is it?” he asked him

Tate puts a box down that he was carrying.

“I found it in the back.” Tate said

Nick got a bad feeling.

Tate opened it, inside was a clock with wires and a timer.

It was a bomb. It was going to go off in 20 seconds.

Tate backs away slowly.

“Shit! We have to get out of here!” Nick said as he started to run.

Nick stopped running and turned around. Tate was still standing there.

“Tate!”

Tate wouldn't move and he is just staring at it.

Nick's eyes widened, Tate was frozen in fear.

Ten seconds until it goes off.

Nick's heart started to beat faster.

Nick couldn't hear nothing but, his heartbeat.
