"A horrific epidemic has landed in Brittan and is spreading like wild-fire. Pray your family and friends. Lock your doors. Don't look outside. Hide anywhere. Their coming...Four our souls...The dead are coming..."
The screen went blank and a simple message popped up on the screen.
'BBC News will be back with you shortly. Sorry for the inconvenience.'
"What, what, what are we going to do!" My mum's scream ran through me as I sat in awe.
"Get out of here!" My dad started looking round, as if he knew what he was doing. Was he serious?
"We can't James! That's where those...those fucking monsters are!" My mum pleaded him, her lips and hand trembling with fear.
"We have to Marie or they'll come eat our god dam fucking brains out in our own home!" My dad's face went purple with anger, confusion and fear. My mum flopped back down on the sofa her face white.
"There's no God," she murmured shaking her head, tears filling her eyes, glazing them over.
"What, so you're saying we go out there and let them eat us on our doorstep?" I looked up at my dad. For everything was moving in slow motion.
"No! We're going to Plymouth!"
"What? That's in the very south of England! Were in the North east you idiot!" My mum stopped shaking her head and looked up at her husband with apprehensive eyes.
"Plymouth, to the Royal Marin base. They have guns, food, tanks, everything. We'll be safe there!"
My mum started screaming and crying again. My dad sat beside, kissing her cheeks and started to hug her.
"We'll be fine, honey, were safe."
"How are we getting there?" My mum looked up at me.
"Why aren't you crying, Rose! Rose why aren't you scared?!"
"Dad, how? The car tank isn't full, and there's no food here."
