Hi, I'm Callie. I'm 19 years old and training to be a doctor, well not anymore. As of now, I'm the leader of section number 3 ... I should explain.
Around 5 months ago, a virus spread. the illness started small but escalated quickly. the deceased would rise from their current state with an overpowering craving for flesh once bitten, the living would share their needs. doctors like me would work day and night to try and create an effective vaccine before the percentage of the infected became criticality high. our attempts were in vain.
It then came to the point where nothing could be done. on the 4th of March 2015, it was announced. citizens were told the truth of the matter. we all went out separate ways after that and many did not survive, that includes my family.
The fear I felt having to walk into my own home and hearing the moans of my no longer living relatives was tremendous. I couldn't die like this, at the hands those who loved me. I picked up my sisters base ball bat and one by one o crack their skulls starting with what's left of my mother, my father and sister. they less senseless.
I had beaten my family to death and I ran.
Running was all I could do now. with no where to go and nothing to live for, I just ran.
I pushed my body too far and it shut down. my Vision went blurry and I fell to the ground.
When I awoke, I was in the arms of a stranger, carrying me somewhere. I was too weak to fight him about it. He was tall with dark hair, everything about him said hostile apart from his eyes. they were a greeny blue, I could be lost in his soft eyes for hours.
The last thing I saw was a cold metal - covered in moss and ivy - located in the side of a mountain before I once again , fell unconscious.
My eyes fluttered open and I found myself in yet environment. my head was throbbing and I sat up to see four people staring at me. a woman and three men. they were pointing guns at my head.
Slamming my fists down I yell at them.
" WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING! You assholes."One slowly lowered his gun and the others copied. I recognised the former. then one spoke.
"Welcome to the survivors salvation"
"Some salvation you have" I replied.
"Sorry about that we take precautions" said the guy I recognised.
" precautions my ass, you have four bitches in a room!"
He scowled, clearly offended. then the woman decided it was time to open her trap.
"I think it's best if you rest" she smiled. I didn't return her kind gesture.
" I think it's best if I don't sit on my ass all day"
The one who brought me here left, slamming the door as he did. so I pissed him off? Good.I got up and left the room. I figured that I should look around. I walked into a room with some make shift beds, cold metal walls and some shelves that had been assigned to people. next there was a room that was all grey, blunt syringes on the shelves that made me wince at the thought of trying to penetrate someone's skin with them. I stepped into a room that made me shiver - it was freezing - I saw the boy who had slammed the door earlier, he was throwing knifes. this must have been some kind of target practice for him ( he was pretty good ) he must have heard me but before he could turn to face me, I was gone.
Stepping slowly, I walked into a room with others. I saw a girl sitting on her own and joined her.
"Hey"
"Hi, are you the new addition to our little family?"
"Yh, I was sort of kidnapped"
" You'll love it here" she insisted
" Okay, so what did you do before all of this happened?" I attempted small talk.
" I was just a cashier, you?"
" I was a doctor" silence had fell upon the room after the words had left my mouth.Hi guys so this is the first chapter of my colab book with TheEmoNemo
