‘’Hey, its Jen, right?’’ I asked, walking up to the woman.When she looked up at me, her eyes were bloodshot from crying so much.‘’I am guessing you still haven’t found your daughters,’’ I said.‘’No, and I don’t know how this is possible. From my cabin to the buffet, and for two days nobody can find them. The cameras show nothing either, just them walking around and them getting out the elevator was the last they were seeing.’’She began to cry again.And I did find it strange that this ship didn’t have cameras at the end of all the cabin hallway, that’s what I was used to.They claimed that only public areas had they, as if a hallway with cabins weren’t consider a public area.I honestly didn’t know what to tell her, because I found it strange that for two days they couldn’t find any signs of ten missing people.‘’I don’t think I can live anymore, my husband sacrificed himself for us to be here and now I don’t know where my children are.’’They kept repeating for the missing people
We alerted the captain, and in no time they had people coming to the room.The man begged and plead for them not to harm is zombified wife.‘’You are one sick fuck!’’ Mustang told him, with a shake of his head.The captain came up to us, shaking our hands.‘’Thank you for your tremendous work.’’Suddenly someone cried out and held their neck, he turned to us with a horrified look on his face.And within seconds, he began to change into a zombie. He lunged for me first, but I pushed him away, he managed to bite me on the forearm, and I cried out.‘’Jeremy!’’ Chrisean cried out and I could see the panic in her eyes.She shook her head and sobbed, causing the zombie to bite into the right side of her face.She screamed out and dropped to the ground, crying even harder.Mustang was the one to pull me out of the room.‘’No, Chrisean.’’‘’It is too late kid; you saw what just happened.And just before the captain closed the door, leaving the others at the mercy of the zombies, I saw Chrisea
You know who they said the world would end without us knowing, because God will be coming back for his people like a thief in the night.Well, I guess those people must be punching the air right now because it didn’t happen how they thought it would.There was no monster from the abbess or fire and brimstones falling from the sky. Instead, it was something else.It ended with a bite, and from there the place was thrown into chaos, with screams and crying.Now the world isn’t what it once was.Cities are nothing but wastelands, high rising buildings have crumbled. We have lost all man-made resources, and the natural resources are on its last.No-one was safe, rich, poor. Black or white, it didn’t matter where you lived. It was the same for everyone.Ironically, it all happened on Halloween. My friend, who was dressed as a zombie and at a different party than me, started it. I heard that they all thought he was just too into character until he bit an unsuspecting girl in the neck.***W
I broke out into a smile even though we still had a little way to go, but the thought of being so close brought joy to me.Another fifteen minutes or so, and we were just outside the gates to the place I called home.I pulled out the plastic card from my wallet and waved it before the reader; I sighed in relief when it changed to green.I pushed the smaller gate open, fearing that if we use the one for cars, it might let those things in.‘’Yeah, what’s going on out there?’’ The security guard asked.‘’I can’t explain it, but… zombies.’’He laughed. ‘’A boy, I always knew you smoked that shit. Zombies aren’t real.’’And I guess to prove his point, he opened the gate and stepped out.The next thing I knew, he was pounced on by the man who bit that woman.‘’Oh my God,’’ the girl covered her mouth.And I knew we both had the same thought.That thing had been following us all this time, maybe just waiting for us to get tired or slow down for the kill.Only God knew what would have happened
There before me, hanging from the ceiling, was my brother.A crying sounding like a dying animal escaped my lips, as his body was still swaying from side to side.The man ran in with his machete raised and pushed me to the side.‘’Shit, kid, what did you do?’’‘’I… that’s my brother, never… me… no.’’ I couldn’t even get the words out.I was too freaked out to think straight.‘’Why did he kill himself?’’ the man asked.‘’How the hell should I know!’’ I yelled at him and moved to stand on the chair to get his body down.The man stopped me, and I pushed him away.‘’Leave me the fuck alone!’’I was still in denial that my brother did something like this to himself.‘’We have to get out of here. Now isn’t the time to let our emotions get the best of us.’’‘’Then go!’’ I pushed at him.I finally got him down and sobbed even harder. My older brother had died.I still couldn’t believe this outcome; never did I think I would see a family member of mine dead in such a way.‘’Wayne,’’ I shook hi
There was a scream, and I saw a woman dropping a little girl as zombies covered her. The little girl stood there crying, calling her mother’s name.Without thinking, I ran over to her.‘’Hey, hey, look at me. We have to leave now.’’‘’No, my mother.’’‘’I’m sorry, but she is dead, and she will be just like those things.’’I knew that wasn’t the right thing to say, but she seemed at the age to understand things like this.‘’No, my mom.’’I forced the little girl to look at me.‘’My name is Jeremy. What’s your name?’’‘’Lura.’’‘’Ok, Lura, do you want to live?’’She nodded.‘’Then you must come with us now. Please. We have food and water.’’The little girl looked down at her mother, watching as they tear and rip at her flesh.She wiped her eyes, then nodded. ‘’Ok, I’ll come with you. But you have to lift me up.’’It was then that I noticed that she had a prosthetic leg.‘’It needs to charge. My mom has the things in her bag.’’I glanced over at where the woman lay, her eyes slowly getti
And I didn’t. I never had a good relationship with either.My father was a chronic cheater, and my mother consumed her life away with work.I still remember in high school, the Campion College, my father was sleeping with this woman and her daughter would come to school and mock me about it. My mother eventually found out, and she did nothing.She even allowed my father to hit me, as if it was my fault he couldn’t keep his dick in his pants.After driving past Devon House, I could tell Chrisean that it would be impossible for us to go any further, but I doubted she would want to hear that.‘’Fuck!’’ she said, hitting the steering wheel after seeing the gridlock of cars before us.‘’We should just turn around and go.’’‘’Not because you had a shitty relationship with your parents, meant I did. I am going to look for my mom, so if you want to go, then feel free to do so, but find your own car.’’I sighed. “I’m coming with you.’’I didn’t want to, but honestly, I kind of liked Chrisean.
As we emerged outside, the place seemed much worse.Lura made a sound, and I wish she never had to go through this. I doubted she was any older than eight, but she had already seen so much. Her mother dying was the worst.‘’OK, so the truck is just at the entrance of Devon House,’’ I said.‘’Not far then, we only have to be quick and be on the lookout for those dogs and zombies.’’‘’The window washers were all on that road, but they didn’t seem to notice us,’’ Chrisean said.The man slung his friend over his shoulder again. ‘’Let’s move.’’‘’Please don’t let me die,’’ Lura said and hid her face in the crock of my neck.‘’I won’t,’’ I promised her.And for a while, things were going great until.I felt Lura being pulled from my back. Her screams rang out into the streets and that got all the creatures’ attention to us.“The truck is just right there!’’ I heard Chrisean saying. ‘’Run for it!’’But I was looking at Lura, laying on the ground with blood pouring from the side of her head.
