Maria..

Its been 2 days now & you are still gone...i know we have our arguments and often afterwards you will need some space, but never before have you been gone this long. i keep checking your facebook in the hopes that you will respond to your journal and at least tell me that you are ok...

I spoke to your uncle richie today. He's still in sacramento. looks like he is taking the kids to
vegas for that miley cyrus event. I thought he didnt like dry/hot conditions? I told him it might be easier to maybe just pay per view it or wait for the dvd to hit netflix.

Speaking of sacramento, your friend rachel called today. your lab tech buddy from UC Davis. she called to tell you that one of your old professors a Dr. Ted Avilstein has fallen seriously ill. he is currently being examined at the uc davis medical center. rachel is asking for you to call her...and while your at it, call me...

I love you...

Maria..

It is now 5 days since you left...i am worried sick. I have called all our friends, and even your parents. No one has heard from you...Where are you? Are you ok? If it was something that i have done, or something that i said, please forgive me...i miss you so much...honey please come home...

Rachel called again today. she said your professor had to be quarantined to a specialized treatment facility due to the rare symptoms of his condition. rachel says his case has been taken over by a few representatives from the CDC? isnt the CDC that center of disease control? i thought they only stepped in if the conditions of the case were extremely severe or a form of a epidemic of some type? he must be in pretty bad shape...

Thats not all. something weird happened on the subway today. a man who looked VERY sick had died. i couldnt exactly see what was going on but it looked like he was having some form of convulsions. police had rushed to his aid but by the time they got there, someone had already deemed him dead. not even 20 minutes later technicians in biosuits came to retrieve the body. kinda strange hearing about your teacher on the west coast with some rare sickness and then seeing someone out here being carried away in a plastic bubble...do you think theres any connection? or possible just coincidence?

Maria..

a few people have called for you today the one call standing out, was from a dr emily watson. she was calling to tell you that your teacher dr. avilstein had passed away. when i had asked if his death had anything to do with the illness he had contracted, she would not comment. she could only comment on that with his dying breath, he had said 2 words, teresa, and your name. strange and all but what does that man?

today only gets stranger and stranger. today matt and i had went to steves gyros to get something to eat. on the way out, matt was assaulted by a guy who was completely covered in blood. the guy was absolutely crazy! he was screaming and groaning and spewing blood everywhere. it took 3 other guys just to restrain him. during the scuffle, matt got bit on the arm. he was complaining about feeling nauseous and dizzy. im assuming the trauma from the attack is just overwhelming and is nothing serious but none the less i have taken matt to mercy hospital to get some medical attention.

We arrived at mercy hospital and had to wait nearly 45 minutes for a doctor to see matt. The doctor apologized and began to talk about the overwhelming cases of sickness they have gotten in within the past 6 - 10 hours. The doctor feels it is probably just a strong strain of the flu goin around and they are innoculating as many people possible. as far as matt is concerned, the doctor is assuming matts feeling of nausea and dizziness are simply side effects of a andrenaline dump. they are going to keep him a few hours to patch him up and stabilize his condition. Im gonna wait here until he is out.

Maria..

Do not come home...i REPEAT do not come home...

today i was awoken by the sounds of whailing sirens and the sound of hysteria as people running back and forth with stretchers of people either sick or a victim of some form of trauma. it was very disorienting. there were people scrambling in all directions. the phones were constantly ringing even the lobby pay phones were ringing off the hook. it was utter chaos...

EMT's just kept dashing through the doors with dozens of stretchers of injured as well as injured EMT's. one EMT i took notice of had a huge gash on his neck. they must have run out of stretchers because he was carrying this woman in VERY bad shape. she was covered in dry blood and had shards of glass all over her, maybe the victim of a car accident i wasnt entirely sure. she was very distraught and emotional. she kept screaming and crying and yelling for someone named harry. Moments later another stretcher came in with a man who appeared to have been impaled by what seems to be a metal ground conduit. the woman urked her way to the man in the stretcher and became hysterical. i can remember one of the surgeons screaming out to get this man to a operating room and was suddenly denied because all medical facilities are currently full with distressed victims. they tried what they could right there, but it was to late. harry had apparently lost to much blood. other surgeons started working on victims stuck in the lobby. the room was deafining with sounds of moaning and screaming. it was hard to walk around with the many wounded all around. not to mention all the blood on the ground making it near impossible to walk without slipping. i made my way towards a little girl who must have been at least 4 or 5 years old. she was wearing a little blue dora the explorer dress, holding a teddy bear, and was crying alone in the corner. When i had asked her what was wrong, she had said "daddy had hurt mommy" i saw a nearby officer with a few photos as well as one of the little girl. i tried to get some info from him on what the hell was going on. he couldnt comment on much but thought it was strange when he had arrived on scene to investigate a domestic violence call. a man who had become suddenly violent had attacked and mauled his wife. the man was not coherent to any commands or nearby presences. the officers opened fire, fatally killing the assailant. the woman was taken to the hospital for a severe bite wound on the neck. he said this was one of dozens of calls placed through out the night for cases of domestic violence. alot of the city has gone mad he said, hes never seen such activity like this. if it gets any worse, they might have to deploy riot control personal on the streets to maintain the peace while hospitals sort out the many wounded and distressed. moments later, the warning sounds of heart failure on the ekg machines can be heard just about everywhere. doctors scurry about screaming at each other on what kind of epidemic can cause such a high rate of mortality in a very short amount of time? many more wounded kept pouring in stacked side by side with the already dead...what happened next is a series of events i can not explain..

I watched as 4 doctors rushed to save this womans life. the woman with the bite wound on her neck had fallen into some kind of coma.. and moments later she died. how can a bite mark cause the body to neurologically shut down into a coma muttered one doctor. as they were pronouncing her dead something incredible happened. the womans ekg started going off again completely off the scale, her body was rigiting in a seizure like trance. moments later, the ekg stopped. the doctors were in argument as to what had just happened. suddenly, the corpse of the woman had risen up from her stretcher. there was a ENOURMOUS gasp from everyone in the room as we watched as her corpse fell to the ground. the room had gone utterly silent, the only sounds heard was the sounds of the ekg machines. to our amazement, the woman was attempting to stand up. her skin was a palish blue color. she had dry blood all over her face and body. her eyes had no coloration what so ever. she almost fell over but one of the doctors caught her asking if she was ok...she kinda laid lifeless in his arms for a few seconds. when suddenly she sprung to attention and viciously bit him in the neck, removing a huge chunk of flesh. the doctor began to scream in a high pitched voice where he began choking on his own blood. everyone started screaming and running around in panic. the other 3 doctors still looking with disbelief. she had dropped the doctor and began lurking her way towards us. she was kind of limping while supporting the other side of her body weight on the inside of her ankle. it was almost like she was dragging herself. it was the creepiest thing i have ever seen. the police officer grabbed his gun and began shouting LADY GET DOWN ON THE GROUND...NOW! uncoherent she continued to lurk her way towards us. GET DOWN ON THE GROUND the officer shouted again, he screamed to the 3 doctors GET YOUR ASSES BEHIND ME! as she lurked forward she had globs of blood salivating from her mouth, groaning and moaning. if i didnt know any better id say we were seeing something right out of a horror movie...in the distance we can hear the sounds of glass being broken and broken screams through out the halls. the woman continued her way forward, the groaning getting louder by the second. THIS IS YOUR LAST WARNING LADY, GET YOUR ASS ON THE GROUND the officer shouted again. as he screamed, the woman opened her mouth and let out a horrifying groan and extended her arm out, the officer responded by firing 2 shells into her chest. she jerked back and spun in a counter clockwise rotation. she hit the ground in a pool of blood and became eerily silent. there was a great sigh of disbelief as she hit the ground.
we stood there a few seconds trying to come to realization as to what really happened. suddenly a voice screams out MOMMY! the little girl runs out of the corner to the side of the dead carcus. she is crying uncontrollable. the little girl is rubbing her moms back shouting mommy please get up...mommy please...an overwhelming sadness envelopes everyone in the room hitting the officer the hardest. how can he tell this little girl that he is responsible for her moms death. moments later a voice from behind bellows KATIE! it appears the young girls grand parents were notified of the situation and were called to the hospital. they call to katie but she is not responding. the officer gives the older couple a rundown on the series of events that have just taken place. another voice screams out in pain causing one of the doctors to run off to offer his assistance. many other doctors can be heard and seen in the distance trying to save the lives of many on the verge of death. i cant help but look around and wonder to myself...is this some kind of a twisted dream? or perhaps the wake of a nightmarish new reality...i suddenly found it very hard to breathe...the whailing sirens...the screams of agony...and the smell of rotting flesh suddenly made it to much to bear...everything just seemed to start going in slow motion now..voices became inaudible, there were many flashes everywhere that seemed to be jerky movements. i could hear myself trying to breathe...i could feel my heart beating. i slowly began slouching to the ground and i am now laying up against the receptionist desk. my vision is hazy, and i am quickly becoming overtaken by a sensation of vertigo. for a few brief moments...there is darkness. i feel as if im alone...and im in despair. suddenly i hear your voice calling to me...you are begging me to wake up. MICHAEL WAKE UP! MICHAEL....MICHAEL PLEASE WAKE UP! the darkness breaks, with a brilliance of white lights. i thought i had died and gone to heaven..odd for me to think that since im a atheist, i quickly recognize that i am still in the hospital and the brilliant lights are simply the halogen lights on the celing. i shake off my worries and try and get myself together. the officer is still grieving as well as the 2 grandparents. i tell the officer, officer sir, we need to do something. the officer doesnt respond, he simply sinks into his depression deeper. i look around and see dozens if not hundreds of people are overwhelmed with grief by the dead of their loved ones scattered through the hospital. i try talking to the grand parents, but again run into a wall of grief. i am about ready to give up. suddenly, a small voice cries out mommy...? i look at the grand parents and then shift my eyes to the officer...again...the lobby becomes eerily silent. we shift our attention to the girl sitting next to the dead carcus on the ground. to our amazement...the carcus is showing signs of life yet once again...mommy...? the little girl crys.. the woman slowly turns her head to the child and lets out a bone chilling groan. she lashes out towards the child but one of the doctors grabs the child in time avoiding the attack. again, we are in disbelief as she again attempts to stand up. supporting herself still on the inside of ankle she turns around and takes a step forward. her foot pointed up, she steps forward placing all her weight on the bottom of her heel, she falls forward dislocating her knee. she is frantically squirming and moaning and then begins crawling her way towards us. SHOOT IT i scream to the officer, SHOOT IT GOD DAMN IT! he mutters god forgive me...and shoots a single round into the head of the undead woman. the woman again, is lifeless..the grand parents watch in horror as their dead daughter lays on the ground. one of the reamining doctors begins to examine the corpse. upon his examination he believes that this is a severe form of rabies. he says rabies can explain why people got sick so fast and began to react in extreme maniacal violence. the other doctor wasnt so sure as he states no known documented victim of rabies was known to have returned to life after being pronounced brain dead...the doctor returns to the little girl to the grandparents as begins instructing the evacuation of this hospital. he runs off down the corner to rally others to evacuate from the hospital. moments later, his voice can be heard screaming followed by silence and the hovering sounds of groaning. the officer says, it cant be...theres more of those things down there..suddenly a shriek from behind us...another corpse has risen from one of the stretchers. the cop begins to scream GET IT OFF ME. this one is a male, half of his face seems to have been eaten revealing portions of the skull, bites deep into the cops face. he screams, and falls to the ground. gunshots break out and wander a stray. we all run for cover. i yell to the older couple YOU AND YOUR GRAND CHILD GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE. i try and rush back to the cops aid, striking the assailant with a nearby chair. none of my efforts seem effective. it just seems to make it more and more aggitated. looking around, i see more and more of the corpses once clinically dead, are now arising out of their stretchers. i find myself quickly surrounded by these things...a hand grabs me on back of the shoulder, i scream and turn with a clinched fist preparing to fight for my life where my fist is intercepted, CHILL THE FUCK OUT! its matt. he managed to escape the emergency room and fought his way through the ghouls lurking in the halls. WE NEED TO GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE MAN! he grabs me and runs through the emergency exit. upon exiting, theres a ambulance with the driver door open we run to it in the hopes of high jacking it for a escape vehicle only to find 4 of those things feeding on a EMT. we scramble to the parking lot to look for a possible escape route. there are people running all over the parking lot. it is hard to figure out who is who. we watch as a woman is trampled to the ground and is then ripped apart by multiple undead assailants. police are now being dispatched to the streets to try and control the outbursts of violence. swat members begin deploying into the streets. shards of tear gas can be seen tossed into the streets of the enraged militants. no effect...they are still coming. shots are fired into the crowd. other squad cars are joining the fray. uniformed officials are forming skirmish lines to try and control the movement of the assailants. the sounds of the gun shots have attracted more of the undead from other directions. they are now surrounded. we notice a single squad car left unattended and grab it as our escape vehicle. as we're driving off, we see now what was dozens of these undead assailants, have now bunched in the hundreds. as we drive through the streets, we are plowing through many of these undead citizens. gunshots are being fired in all directions, the skirmish line is about to fall. WHAT THE HELL ARE THOSE THINGS MAN?! matt screams, i didnt have the answer for him. over the radio we heard a military official declaring the complete shut down and cut off of new york city, any survivors are to make way to the yankee stadium in the bronx on 161st street. the army and navy have a joint rescue operations camp setup there with helicopters evacuating all survivors. we are making our way there now.

Maria...now of all times PLEASE call me while communications are still available. DO NOT COME HOME. once i have hit the stadium i will try and hitch a ride to california and go to your mothers house in sacramento. I will muster up who we can there, and wait for your arrival.

I love you...
