Zommunist Invasion by Picott, Camille (ebook reader ink TXT) 📗

Valentina was waiting for them. She’d climbed onto the rooftop of the school and had no less than five giant snowballs ready and waiting.

As soon as they were within range, she pelted them ruthlessly.

“That’s my little sister!” Luca’s voice was gleeful as he sprawled in a snow bank, grinning up at her as she hurled yet another snowball at him. “Isn’t she a tough one, Marcello?”

“Tough,” Marcello agreed. “Valé is the toughest girl in the village.”

Valentina, hands on her hips, beamed down at the two of them. When they dashed back into the vineyard, she swung down from the school room’s eave and dropped to the ground.

Fearlessly, she charged after the older boys, ready to show them just how tough she was.

They played for hours as the snow fell all around.

They ambushed each other, played hide-and-seek, and, when at last they tired of rough housing, made snow angels in the fresh powder.

When they finally returned home, bright-eyed and exhausted, no evidence of the fun remained beyond their footprints the snow. Even those disappeared quickly, buried forever under the white flakes of time.

About the Author

Camille Picott has been writing Stories from the End of the World since she figured out how to turn on her family’s Apple IIe computer and wrangle a floppy disk into the drive. She loves zombies, running, and food (though not necessarily in that order).

She has a pet zombie named Steve who lives in her shed. He often comes out for family adventures and social media photos. (He is NOT a repurposed CPR dummy. He's a REAL zombie lovingly rescued from a dumpster who only happens to look like a repurposed CPR dummy.)

Stay in touch with Camille! She loves to chat about with her readers about the apocalypse, running, and her pet zombie (who loves beer).

You can find her daily on Instagram and Facebook.
