Journal Entry Two: the Stranger

Bell and Jake try to figure out what's what with this strange guy.

Date: December 31, 2011; midnight (so technically January 1, 2012)

Hey Sexy Red Leather Journal, 

So I am still alive today, a little more creature blood on my favorite tank top, but I would rather have blood on my tank top than be dead. My little brother needs me. 

Anyways, yesterday when I left you to see who was banging at the bathroom door, It was a man... He looked almost 30-ish, he was wounded as well. He had fainted. I dragged him inside.

"Jake! Move over!" I say with much strain. "We need to make room for this man!"

Jake wakes up, fully alerted. In a tyme like this there is no room for the week and tired.  We made some room for the man,  Jake started a fire in the corner from some old news paper and magazines. We kept the fire small of course, saying we are in a little bathrooms and can not open the windows. I grabbed some paper towel and whip the blood off of the stranger's hands. only then I see it is his own blood...

"JAKE!!! GET THE BANDAGES!!" I yell to my little brother.

Jake stands up and runs to the back of the bathroom where we hid our makeshift first aid kit. He came back moments later with a roll of bandage and medical tape. The man had passed out at this point. I took the bandage and wrapped it around his hand.

"I hope this is not a bite..." I say to myself. 

Jake must have heard me, because he replied with a "me too!" and a worried look.

"Bea, I'm hungry..." He looked at me with food on his mind.

I looked at the man and replied "what tyme is it, Jake?"

"12 a.m." he look down

"Jake-y, do not be sad. we have 8 hours till sunrise. We can make you some ravioli to hold you over till it does." I said, Jake knows that we can only have canned food after dark, and it is driving him insane that he can not eat proper food. 

BUT there is ONE coffee shop still ran by a normal human. Jake knows it to, the guy that owns it has a mini farm in the back hidden somewhere, where no one can get to it, EVERYTHING there is organic. I used to go to it when everything was... Normal.  Anyways, the guy that owns it gives me and Jake free food, he gives every survivor free food, we just have to wait till sunrise.

Well I am gonna go make Jake the ravioli, a.k.a. warm it up on the fire and hand him a spoon, then I am going to sleep, I cannot wait for sunrise.

Peace, 
Belletryx
