"Ive been through too much stuff these past few days... Im going" I say as I leave the kid and go to another part of the mall.

I grab him by collar, slamming him against the wall. He was light, lighter than I had expected. Like a child. He was a child. That didn't stop me from decking him across the face as hard as I could, his head jerking to the side. I drop him to the floor, turning around and running out of the room.

"Oh damn... That hurt!" I say drunkenly. There was no denying it now. I had snapped.

I turn around as I see Alex's sudden act of violence. "Well if you're going to do that, kill the mother forgeter!"

I take a quiet step out of the room looking down the corridor. There's a crazy. I open my mouth in shock and quietly step back into the room.

A few crazies entered the bank, but pretty much all of them chased the truck.

yep

"I-" I begin, sucking in breath from between my teeth, struggling to kill him. He was too much- No, he wasn't him. He was just another liability. We didn't need him. But... I couldn't kill a kid like this... Could I? I pull the trigger slightly, my hand shaking so much the shot was likely to go wide anyways. I steady my hand, close my eyes, turn my head.
Pull the trigger.
The slide flies back, jerking my hand backwards. The bullet on a straight path for his head, right in the medulla.
I hear the sickening sound of the bullet penetrating the skull.
Then...
Nothing.
I had done it.
I had killed him.
I open my eyes, seeing the fresh corpse in front of me, tears in my eyes. I immediately sprint out of the room, I didn't know where, I didn't care.

I see Alex trembling from her action. I walk over to her and give her a hug, "You did the right thing..."

I look at Ash, tears streaming down my cheeks. "I didn't have to kill him..." I say between sobs.

"He was gone... His mind.. Its okay. Ill leave you be for now, to collect yourself." I say to Alex and sit down.

I continue crying, burying my face in my arms, weeping silently. Why? I don't know. Perhaps I was mourning the loss of my brother, or maybe I was crying over the fact that I had just murdered somebody.

"Listen. You need to stay here. Me and Jacov need to save the other Alex back at the bank."

"I... what... why?"
