2024: Zombies 1
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.
2024: Zombies 7
The event of Lura dying weighed heavily on my mind, to hear her scream, see the look of confusion of her face after she regained consciousness and the sound of that dog ripping at her skin.That man who was with us for a brief moment was right. There are some crazy and cruel people out there.Because if you want to die so badly, why bring others with you?Why not just throw yourself to those zombies?I wasn’t paying much attention to where I was going, and though the rocks were slippery, it was what got me.But because we were walking in the river, I stepped into a pool that was much deeper than the other parts.I felt strong arms pulling at my shoulder, and when I surfaced, I gasped for air.‘’Are you alright kid?’’ Mustang asked.‘’Yeah, just need to be more careful,’’ I said.I quickly made sure that everything in my bag was ok.‘’What’s that?’’ Chrisean asked, pointing at the envelope, which I quickly stuffed back into my bag.‘’Something my brother left.’’I still didn’t feel com

‘’Are you ok?’’ Eva asked the man, who didn’t reply.Instead, he stopped, then he changed into one of those things.‘’Jeff,’’ a woman cried, running to his side, despite someone trying to pull her back.The zombie bit into her neck and not before long, she too began to change.Mustang raised his gun ready to shoot, but someone punched him in the face, causing the gun to fall out of his hands.‘’What the hell is going on?’’ Chrisean began to cry as more and more members of the group began to change into zombies.In the same moment, a shot rang out, causing my ears to ring. A zombie fell on top of me and all I could do was put my hand under its chin, so I didn’t get bitten.The zombie snapped close to my face, and I could feel my hands starting to hurt.‘’Fuck!’’ I yelled, thinking that I was hopeless and couldn’t even defend myself.Suddenly blood splattered all over my face, making me gag and frantically wiping at myself so now gets in my mouth.‘’What the hell just happened?’’ Eva as

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

‘’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

I sat of my bed, thinking that this world is truly cruel, all because the elites want things to go their way, they basically killed off everyone.‘’Are you sure you don’t want to come to dinner?’’ Chrisean asked.‘’No, I am alright. Just need to settle my mind,’’ I told her.There was a dinging sound and the captain’s voice came on over the P.A system.‘’Um, good evening everyone. Um, we all know what the situation is and by now I’m all sure that all of you know that we are enroute to Norway. Um, sorry I meant to say Alaska. There are currently three hundred and one of you onboard and um I hope my notes and the checks are right and um that aren’t any stowaways.’’He laughed.‘’Um, anyway, at six-fifteen when the military will be dropping bombs on the island of Jamaica. And I have to say that this is just, um…Jamaica is one of my favorite islands, but I guess this is what needs to be done to purge this um virus if you can call it that. Um, yeah. So, it will be a sight to see and some o

The next morning, nine fifteen am, Mustang and I were on the gangway, waiting for the riot to begin.A guard called us over and gave us uniforms.‘’Have to play the part.’’We went outside with ease, and soon after a guard finish speaking with a man, he began arguing with someone else in line.I went to break it up like I was told and allowed the man to take my gun.The man held it at my head, and I held my hand up.‘’I need some back up over here!’’A few guards ran over, as they tried to talk to the man, Mustang had his gun taken to get the rest of the guards’ help.‘’Guys! The gate is open and there is no one on the gangway to stop us, let’s make a run for it.’’ A voice shouted from somewhere.There was a loud uproar and I got flung about as a surge of people rushed forward.I felt strong arms grabbing me and I went along with it, knowing that it was either Mustang or the guard who came up with this idea.It wasn’t easy getting to the gangway, but the guard made a path for us and r

I gave the lady my passport, Jeremy Gooding. Who are you traveling with?’’‘’My girlfriend and her little sister.’’She nodded and I went through easily, without her even asking to see a credit card.‘’Sorry, but I am going to take a break. I’ll have to ask you to join another line,’’ she said to Fisher.‘’Are you kidding me, have you seen how long those other lines are?’’The woman didn’t seem to care and was about to close the shutter.I quickly went up and knocked on the glass.‘’Come on, you only have three more people in the line. Give everyone a chance.’’She smiled at me. ‘’Only because I know your mother and you look so much like her.’’She turned back to Fisher with a serious expression.‘’Passport.’’‘’Akeem Fisher?’’‘’Yes.’’‘’You work at KFC?’’‘’Worked at, KFC is no more.’’‘’How did you get this passport?’’I gulped, hoping that Fisher doesn’t panic and did what Sohpia said about them being related.‘’My cousin Sophia Walker gave it to me, and I am taking my girlfriend

She took me to the side so we could speak in private.‘’Are you here yet your father?’’‘’No, I don’t know where he is or if he is alive.’’‘’You mother, brother?’’I knew she didn’t care about them, but I still answered and told her what had happened to my brother, then explained my situation and asked her for help.‘’Of course, I will help you. But you and your friends have to keep it on the hush.’’‘’Yes, yes. Thank you.’’‘’If anyone finds this out I will get into trouble. I had no idea either that there was a passport that was needed, many of us in the Prime Minister’s office didn’t and it was after making that broadcast did I found out. It was all planned Jeremy; I am just luck to be here because they asked me to take over as spokesperson for the country.’’‘’Can’t you do something to stop this, giving everyone a fighting chance?’’‘’I’m afraid that I am nothing but a pawn, this is their idea of depopulating the world.’’I nodded in understanding, Mustang told us about their pla

Mustang managed to get only one other female to come with us.‘I want to live,’ she had said.So now, the seven of us were moving as fast as we could but still trying to lay low, so we weren’t seen or heard.The scent of the food we brought for Mia, or our own smell wasn’t a problem since the zombie only followed the smell of blood.I gave a laugh, seeing the closed gate of the cruise port up head and security with guns pointed at any coming zombie.There were only a few people outside, waiting for the gates to be opened so they could get in.Maybe fifteen, there was a lady and two children, along with an old couple and the rest just looked like bad news.I knew the saying went to not judge a book by its cover, but these men spelt trouble, with their long guns and gruff looks.‘’Please leave your weapons in the basket,’’ one of the guards said.‘’But I need it to protect myself,’’ the man said.‘’You won’t need it any longer, you will be in a safe area. So again, please leave your gun

‘’Of course it is you, selfish man,’’ Chrisean said, beating me to it.Lester scoffed. ‘’Selfish? The eight of us is more than enough in here, we don’t need the extra mouths to feed.’’‘’You are right, we don’t need the extra mouths, so keep running yours and see if I don’t throw you to the dogs I saved you from.’’Lester gave me a dirty look before going to sit at one of the tables.‘’Jeremy!’’ Mia squealed with joy, running up to me.I bent down and engulfed her into a big hug.‘’I am so glad you are alright kid.’’‘’I am glad you are ok too, but Mustang kept me safe.’’Mustang clapped me on my back.‘’You two had me worried.’’‘’Don’t worry, the four of us are in this together.’’Mustang frowned, ‘’kid, I formed a small group while we were parted.’’I recalled to him how we helped Lester and his family then he did us dirty.‘’That little shit, he knew what he did. No wonder why he was pushing so much to shoot you, and now I see why he was pushing me to make votes and kick people ou

‘’Let’s take a break,’’ I said to Chrisean, I could see that she was tired, and I knew that it couldn’t be easy to carry most of my weight.We have long since lost sight of Deedee and her family.‘’We can’t stop now; the sun is still high in the sky.’’‘’Yes, and that’s why I am telling you to take a break. Let’s have some of the water Deedee gave us, rest for a while and then continue.’’Finally accepting it, Chrisean sighed and placed me on a rock.I gave the bottle of water to her first.‘’I still can’t believe those people, after helping them and risking our own lives they just… just fucked us off like that.’’At first I said nothing.‘’To be honest, I would rather to take my chances with zombies, at least we know exactly what they want. And that is to always eat, us humans on the other hand. We are our own destruction.’’I stood to see if I could at least manage my own weight now, and to my surprise my leg felt fine.‘’That’s weird, a few hours ago my leg was swollen and caused m
