The Sudrian Zombie Outbreak (UNDER REWRITE)

April 18th, 2022

Log 1

I woke up to find that nothing had changed, Gordon was still here and I was still here. But then something happened, as I was drawing, I saw Henry's shadow next to the sheds. I first I thought he was leaving, but then the shed doors banged, and Henry tried to open up the door, Gordon was going into a panic attack saying he didn't want to die. But then we heard a whistle of an engine, we were shocked to see Molly pass by with her eyes burning and she had no crew in her controls. Henry must have thought we escaped and he chased after her. I was horrified, I needed to find a way out of Tidmouth Sheds.

Log 2

I had to stay in the shed because I have no clue how to fire up an engine. But while I was sitting like a duckling, I heard a horn and a whistle. That's when I saw Salty and Emily. Salty had war makeup on and Emily had logos that said "Our Emerald Hero". You all better buckle up because these two had quite the adventure. Salty was at Brendam shunting trucks when the outbreak began, he saw several workmen getting eaten to death by those creatures. Salty uncoupled his trucks and raced down the line running over several creatures along the way. He stopped at Upper Brendam and went into a nearby shed. He saw Donald and Gordon pass by, and on the next day, Edward passed by. Salty couldn't stay at the shed for long and he went down the line to try to find any survivors. He decided to check the abandoned harbor at Suddery to see if anyone was there. He arrived and he saw Emily had crashed into the sheds with her passenger train. Salty pulled Emily out of the sheds and the two went down the line to find shelter. They decided to camp out at the Knapford Lead Mines and Emily told her story to Salty. She was at Vicarstown when the outbreak began, she saw several zombies overrun the platform and she quickly raced down the line, she passed Henry, Toby, and BoCo on the way. She didn't realize she was on the Brendam line and the zombies unknowingly changed the points to the harbor and then she crashed into the sheds, and that's when Salty found her. They were amazed a person of my age could survive. But I told them I've been told that a lot.

While we were just sitting around wondering what to do, we heard Percy's whistle again. He raced towards us and he crashed into the back of Salty, he tried to push Salty down the line, but Percy slowly came to a stop, and Salty's driver tried to shoot him, but he missed and shot to the side of Percy's mouth. Percy then screeched loudly until the screeching died down. Percy then began to cough and said what happened. I tried to figure out what happened, and I learned that he was sentient the entire time. Percy began to calm down, and then we saw he was reverting to his normal self, as his eyes were going back to the way they originally were, and after that, Percy told us what happened to him.

Log 3

Percy was at Ffarquhar Sheds, getting some sleep, as he was taking the mail train that night, but then Gerald and David came out of nowhere and started him up, Percy confused but then he saw James pass by and then he saw several zombies beginning into eat Douglas. Percy ran out of the sheds and he raced to the Lumber Mill, nearly crashing into the buffers. He stayed there until the morning of the 14th and then he left for Thomas's line. He went down it to see that several stations were filled with bodies and shattered glass. He even checked the coal mines and abandoned mines at Maithwaite, but he couldn't find anyone. He then arrived at the quarry to see that it was in one piece. He saw Mavis, who was preparing to leave the quarry, and he also saw Daisy, she was sort of a hospital for injured survivors. While staying at the quarry for a few days, Percy heard a roar from the distance and he went to check it out. She stopped at Ffarquhar to see that there were trucks in front of him. Several people came out and began to seize Percy, then a man pointed at his head, and shot a green dot, and then Percy began to get infected. Gerald and David fled for their lives and they hid in a nearby building. The people soon left and Percy began to screech and he raced off. Percy told us that he wasn't trying to kill us back on the 15th, he was trying to yell at us to help him, but we thought he was a goner.

Log 4

After Percy finished his story, our silence was interrupted by the honk of a horn in the distance. I thought I saw a bus pull up to Tidmouth, and Salty saw him, and he told everyone to come along, and Salty told Emily to couple up to Gordon. She did, and then we arrived at the station to see that Bertie was parked by the station. He was apparently at Wellsworth when the outbreak began and he drive off to Crosby to take shelter, he quickly saw Bulgy, but it wasn't long when the creatures caught him and he was mauled to death. Bertie soon left this morning to find survivors, he didn't find any, but he did see George's gutted remains in the road. He soon parked at Tidmouth, and his survivors raided the station to find supplies. We decided to trek up to Cronk to stay there for the night. I'll update this journal when we get there.

Log 5

We arrived at Cronk and it was a bit cleaner than I expected. The last time I saw it, the turntable was jammed as it had trucks clogging the controls, but they have vanished. Maybe someone pulled them out? Salty shunted Percy into the sheds and Emily shunted Gordon. Emily put her coaches in a nearby siding so the passengers could get out and begin to set up camp. While everyone told their adventures during this messed-up apocalypse, I just sat around, not knowing what to do next. It's just been a long week so far. But we need to find James and others, I have no idea where they went.
