I walked down the railroad tracks trying my best to keep my balance. Walking along tracks can be difficult. The railroad ties rise differently from the ground. They are also spaced differently. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed a dark figure standing about one hundred feet in front of me. I paused and tried my best to make out the figure. Every time I moved my head the shape would disappear and I would close my eyes and open them again to try and make out the shape. I took several steps forward to see if the shape would move at all. No movement so I kept walking forward.

    I kept my eyes on the shape until I got right next to it. It was a bush. I continued down the track wondering when I would come across a town or a house. I stumbled down the train tracks. The hunger was getting to me which weakened me significantly. I continued to make my way amongst the shadow creaturees and the trees.

    The sky was beginning to turn gray. Morning was on its way. Maybe when the sun rises I can get some food. Maybe I can find a town and get out of this mess. I haev to be at least ten miles from where I was earlier. 



    A hill is in front of me. I am weary but I know I have to push on. My legs have become numb and don't want to walk anymore. I continue however. Step after step. I reach the top of the hill and look down. A small town with lights and cars. I make my way down from the hill as fast as I can. Explosive excitement came over me.
