Made it to the airport. Infection has spread, much much quicker than I had thought it would in a worst case scenario situation. Lab had to be abandoned. Death seems to always find me, but never takes me.
People were panicked. I stood there for awhile, watching the throngs of people throw money in hopes of getting on a plane out. The air smelt weird. People were crying and screaming on their cellphones. It started to get worse, people climbing over other people, eventually they just…

The janitor was beyond help. They’d succeeded in beating the man to death. By the time I got to the body Jason was already pulling the ring of keys off his belt loop. Right, now we had keys and the main area that we wanted was cleared and ready for us. We made our way back to the cruiser awkwardly carrying the body between us so as to keep a hand free for a weapon. The trunk had been emptied of the gear so we put the body in there, wrapped in another sheet we’d found. We stopped once we were…

I had Jason back the cruiser into the open spot closest to the front door. I backed my car in next to it and got out, heading inside. I wanted to talk to everyone about what I was planning next. I asked ever one to sit down and started laying down what I had planned. I wanted to clear the high school. I mean really make sure it’s clear. When Jason and I took our drive I paid close attention to what I could see of the campus fence. Every gate I’d seen was close and I assumed locked. I wanted to…

When I pulled open the first aid kit I knew it was different then any I’d ever seen in a police cruiser. For one it was bigger then the ones I’d seen in other cruisers. And two, among the first things I noticed was a ready to use injection gun with a full vial of morphine. I glanced at the tag that was attached that was on the top of the bag. It read Lieutenant Darren Jameson; Tulare County S.W.A.T, First Division: Certified Field Medic.
He was a S.W.A.T Team field medic. Tulare…

It was coming up on four p.m. We’d spent the better part of the last hour and a half boarding up the house. We didn’t know how long we’d be here before we were actually able to move to a defendable position. We’d decided to set up a couple of old radios that had been in the back shed for a while. One of them was a CB and the other was an old HAM radio. They both were set up in the kitchen next to the stereo that I’d take out of my room. I found dads old scanner that he had put up in his closet…

THAT WAS IT!!!! I turned right onto “O” street and pulled into the parking lot behind the Dialysis place on the corner. I got out of my car and leaned against it staring at the high school. I realized for the first time that the high school had an eight foot fence completely encircling the campus. The main entrance of the school is on Tulare Ave. It is glass doors but they can be fortified. All other entrances are simple walk in entrances except the gates in the Staff parking lot in the back of…

The tv was on channel twenty four when I walked through the door. No one seemed to care that the news had taken up the entire days broadcast lineup. I had a fleeting thought about Smallville and Supernatural coming on at eight and nine. The thought was chased away as quickly as it had come. It was unlikely that I would be able to watch them again any time soon.
Jason and Sia got back to the house a few minutes after I did. They’d had a bit more trouble then I when they was at the…

Pulling up to my house I wanted to be able to get to the vehicles as fast as possible if need be so I parked the truck on the grass as close to the front door as i could get it. I backed it in so we could load up anything if we needed to and I had Jason back my car in next to it. When I got in the house I didn't need to ask my mom if she would put it on the news cause she was already watching it. The news reports were becoming increasingly focused on attacks. More and more people were being…

Ten minutes had passed and we were ready to go. We decided that I would take the truck and that Jason and Sia would follow in my car with Damian and Heaven. They had wanted all of us to go in my car but I argued the point that we would be better off if we got back to Tulare already having two vehicles. We had spent the ten minutes before leaving getting things ready to go. The shotgun and shells that Jason got from his moms room were in the truck with me(kids' safety came first) shotgun loaded…

All Hope Is Lost???
I was standing in the Drive Side Yard with the ax in my hands when the radio station I was listening to suddenly went silent. I heard the beeping of the Emergency Broadcast Signal an instant before a voice filled the airwaves. ":Stay Tuned For A Message From The Emergency Broadcast Network:" There were a handful of seconds where all I heard was white noise then, "This is an Emergency Broadcast, reports are flooding in concerning a global pandemic. Not much is…
