DAY 1 - REALISATION

The main street through town was like a warzone, cars dumped all over the place in various battered states there was one with bloody smears all over the windows and another that had smased into the window of a newsagent store, people were running screaming, being chased by a horde of undead. i decided to take a back street to avoid the carnage. Thankfully it was a lot quieter along my chosen route. It took me round back behind the pubs and shops, it was there i saw a group of about 7 or 8 people, they seemed to be normal one was crouching down on one knee next to a woman and the rest were looking round scared, they spotted my car coming up the road and about three of them ran toward me waving. I wound my window down as the first of the three got along side the car. He explained they were all in the same bar together when a man came in all bloody and mumbling about people eating other people out in the street. When a few revellers from the bar went out to see what was happening they were attacked then the attackers stormed the bar, everyone panicked but this group managed to get out to safety, one of their number was bitten, the woman on the floor being tended to by the rest of their group. As i got out to see if i could help (taking my car keys with me of course), a member of their group started shouting "oh shit oh no she`s dead shit she`s dead" i ran over to them, they were laying the womans body on the floor and as i got closer i recognised the woman. But it could`nt be, OH FUCK NO! it is, i mean she is, well was Amy my girlfriend. I was hysterical i threw myself on her screaming, As i calmed down and started to think clearly i noticed the wound which was on her neck did`nt seem that bad, she should`nt have died from it. I had thoughts going round and round in my head trying to make sense of everything, remembering scattered bits of movies i had seen. Just as i thought it it happened. Amy`s hand moved, we were sure she was dead, then she looked up her eyes were glazed over sort of lifeless more looking through things and not directly at them, and then came the moan sounding like a breathy growl, it went right through you chilling and sending shivers down the spine..


As much as i loved Amy i knew deep down what had to be done. I turned round and ran not wanting to look back just to make sure no sentimentalities were going to force me to make a mistake and become my girlfriends dinner. Back in the car i glanced back as i promised myself i would`nt do, i saw the rest of the group fighting her off and running. They were all going in the other direction from me.
I rammed the car in reverse, spun it round and sped off. With a heavy heart and a ton of regret i decided it best to make my way home to at least a bit of safety, passing scenes of horror and bloody messes at the roadside. I drove over a motorway flyover and looked down the roads were gridlocked, a lot of people had abandoned cars in a bid to leave town relying on foot to get them god knows where. Those that remained in the trafic tailbacks must have looked like microwave meals to the zombies that were attacking even biting at the vehicles trying to get at the food inside. I left . I needed a plan. I need a way out of this. This can`t be the end......
