I'll Be Back

Chapter One

"Come on Brittany!" I hear my brother, James, call from downstairs. "I'm coming!" I say irritated. I run down the stairs and out the door. We reach our bus stop just in time. We climb on the bus and sit in our usual seats. James sits in the back and I sit in the middle. I sit quietly and wait for Ally to get on. I stare out the window as we approach her stop. I don't see her come out of her house. I guess she is sick or something. I look away from the window and look at my brother who is now talking to his friend Bret. I turn back around and stare out the window. For once i'm ready to be at school. It's a long ride. People just keep coming. We finally get to the school and everyone piles off the bus. I walk slowly to homeroom. Then 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and then back on the bus. The ride home was the same as the ride to school. We finally reach our stop and me and James get off. "I'm gonna take a walk." I tell James as he walks inside. "Okay. Have fun." He says sarcastically. I decide to walk to Ally's house. It takes about 10 minutes to get there. I knock on the door and no one answers which is strange because both cars are in the driveway. I grab the spare key from underneath the rock and open the door. I step inside and look around for her. "Ally?" I call walking towards her bedroom. I hear slight moans and someone clawing at her door from inside. I assume it's just Ally playing with me. "Ha ha very funny." I say opening her door. When I do I am met with a form of Ally that looks dead. She is missing parts of her face and arms and legs. She just groans and looks at me with cloudy white eyes. She starts coming at me quickly and trying to attack me. I run out of her house and down the street where I am met with another one of the things. I burst through the front door of my house where I see James standing in the living room with our parents. They aren't our parents though they are one of those things. "James. We don't have time to mourn over them grab some knifes, close and lock all the doors, and turn on the news." I say walking to the front door. I close it and lock. I also move the couch in front of it just to make sure. I walk to the kitchen and grab as many knifes as I can. James turns on the TV and we listen to the emergency broadcasting system. We each lift a parent and move them to the backyard. we close and lock the backdoor too. We close and lock the door to the stairs incase they get through the windows. We hear the voice of the anchor speaking. "There have been many reports of what people are calling 'zombies' attacking other people and killing them. Then the dead rise as one of the creatures and do the same. Everybody needs to remain inside and lock all the doors. If one gets in your house kill it immediately." James holds me and tries to shield me from the reality of what is happening. Our parents are zombies. Our friends are probably zombies. Life as we know it is gone. It's the zombie apocalypse.
