Flesh: Slovakia

Stone Age

The outbreak started without warning. One day, everything was normal. The next, the streets were filled with the walking dead. No one knew where they came from, how they spread, or how to stop them. All they knew was that they had to survive.

Marek was one of the lucky ones. He had always been prepared for the worst. He had watched enough zombie movies and played enough zombie games to know what to do. He had a stash of survival gear and weapons in his apartment, which he had fortified with metal bars and locks. He had a generator, a water filter, a radio, and a laptop. He used his hacking skills to access information and communicate with other survivors online. He was reluctant to trust anyone and preferred to stay indoors as much as possible.

Zuzana was one of the brave ones. She had always been compassionate and loyal. She had a lot of medical knowledge and skills and tried to help as many people as she could. She worked at the University Hospital of Bratislava, which had become a refuge for the sick and the injured. She was also a devout Catholic and believed that God would protect her and her loved ones. She was friends with Marek and often visited him to bring him supplies and comfort. She hoped that he would open up to her and join her in prayer.

Lukas was one of the curious ones. He had always been adventurous and rebellious. He loved to explore the city and look for new challenges. He was also a skilled parkour practitioner and used his agility and speed to evade the zombies. He was fascinated by the outbreak and wanted to learn more about it. He often ventured out of his dormitory at the Comenius University, which had been barricaded by the students and staff. He carried a backpack with a camera, a flashlight, and a knife. He hoped to find clues and answers to the mystery.

Eva was one of the determined ones. She had always been ambitious and courageous. She had a strong sense of justice and duty and wanted to expose the truth behind the outbreak. She worked for the Slovak Radio and Television, which had been shut down by the government. She had a lot of contacts and sources and used them to gather information and evidence. She was also a skilled shooter and had a license to carry a firearm. She often sneaked out of her apartment, which had been raided by the military. She hoped to find proof and witnesses to the conspiracy.

Peter was one of the optimistic ones. He had always been friendly and generous. He had a passion for cooking and loved to share his food with others. He owned a small restaurant in the Old Town, which had become a sanctuary for the hungry and the weary. He had a lot of friends and customers who supported him and his business. He was also a member of the local volunteer fire brigade and had some experience in fighting fires and rescuing people. He always had a smile and a joke for everyone. He hoped that things would get better and that peace would return.

Their lives were about to change when they came across a community of survivors who used stone tools.

They were a group of people who had escaped from the city and found shelter in the forest. They had built a camp with tents, fires, and fences. They had learned to live off the land, hunting, fishing, and gathering. They had also learned to make their own weapons and tools from stone, wood, and bone. They had a leader, a wise and charismatic man named Tomas, who had taught them how to survive and thrive in the new world.

They had found Marek when he had gone out to look for fuel for his generator. He had been attacked by a horde of zombies and had run out of bullets. He had been saved by Tomas and his men, who had fought off the zombies with their stone spears and axes. They had invited him to join them and had shown him their camp. He had been impressed by their skills and their lifestyle. He had decided to stay with them and learn from them.

They had found Zuzana when she had gone out to look for medicine for her patients. She had been ambushed by a gang of looters and had been wounded. She had been rescued by Tomas and his women, who had driven away the looters with their stone slings and knives. They had treated her wound and had offered her their hospitality. She had been touched by their kindness and their faith. She had decided to stay with them and help them.

They had found Lukas when he had gone out to look for adventure. He had been exploring the ruins of an old castle and had been trapped by a swarm of zombies. He had been freed by Tomas and his kids, who had lured away the zombies with their stone whistles and traps. They had introduced him to their games and their secrets. He had been intrigued by their curiosity and their fun. He had decided to stay with them and play with them.

They had found Eva when she had gone out to look for evidence. She had been following a lead to a hidden military base and had been caught by a patrol. She had been saved by Tomas and his spies, who had infiltrated the base and had sabotaged their equipment. They had given her the evidence and had invited her to their mission. She had been amazed by their courage and their justice. She had decided to stay with them and fight with them.

They had found Peter when he had gone out to look for food. He had been searching for a farm and had been surrounded by a pack of wolves. He had been helped by Tomas and his cooks, who had scared off the wolves with their stone pots and pans. They had shared their food and had asked him to join their feast. He had been delighted by their generosity and their optimism. He had decided to stay with them and eat with them.

They did not know it yet, but they had found a new family. They did not know it yet, but they had found a new home. They did not know it yet, but they had found a new hope.

The community of survivors who used stone tools was not from the past. It was from the future. It was a vision. It was a lesson. It was a message.

It was the only way to survive.
