Zombie Apocalypse: Rise Of The Dead

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I entered the house, a smile on my lips. I closed the door as silently as I could before making my way to the kitchen put the cake into the fridge. It was only 6 in the morning and i wanted to surprise my mom for Mother's Day. I'm gonna be 16 soon and I felt that if I give my Mom an awesome Mother's Day, I would definitely get an awesome Sweet 16 in return. As I crept up the stairs, I heard the TV turn on. I sighed, something must be messing with the cable again. As I picked up the remote, my attention was caught by the topic that was on the news.

"On the otherside of town, in Greendale, there has been a case reported of Cannibalism. Government has qurantined off these areas. No one is allowed in or out of Greendale." the regular news reporter started. I shook my head, what has the world come to these days? I sat on the couch, 'A few more minutes of watching won't harm anyone...' I thought.

"The area of GreenDale has been heavily guarded by IUDA incorporated who is in League with the FBI. IUDA ,which stands for Information of Uncertain Disaster Association, has told the press that this would most probably go away before the end of the week. Everybody living on the outskirts of Santoria are strongly cautioned to stay home, not letting anyone into their homes without proper identification as they may be infected. This is Robert lowi signing out, have a very good morning!"

'Crazy, who would have a good morning after you have shared that news?' I thought as I switched to another channel. "An Infectious disease has broken out in GreenDale. This 'Disease' is highly infectious. Only if the virus gets into your blood stream, you are infected. Folks, watch out. This is not a joke, a real Zombie Apocalypse has begun... For your safety, when you see a zombie trying to attack, shoot/attack it in the head, where the brains are. Scientists have confirmed to get rid of a zombie, you have to destroy the brain. They are attracted by loud noises. Do NOT let ANYONE bite you as that is the way the Virus is passed from those infected to those not infected. The symtoms of those infected-"

Suddenly, The power went out. I ran to the main door and bolted it. I ran everywhere, (even the second story of the house) shut and locked all the windows. I sighed in relief as I slumped back onto the couch. I reached into my right pocket and pulled out my pistol. My dad gave this to me before he died when I was just 12, saying that since he was no longer around to protect me, I would have to count on the pistol which also had a very hard handle. I bring this pistol with me everywhere I go as a form of protection and as this had been his favourite pistol out of all the weapons he had in his study.

To be honest, my favourite weapon was the katana in his study. He knew that. He had left me more than half of the weapons he had. The ones he left me were mostly the ones he had taught me to use. I smiled as memories of my father's weapon/fighting classes flooded into my mind. They weren't those type where the father would be strict but they were the type that contained plentiful laughter.

"AHHH!!"

I heard a scream that startled me. That sounded like Mom!! I quickly ran to the other end of the house. Seizing the pistol, I turned the knob of my mother's room. Her screams were more frightful. "MOM!" I yelled as I threw open the room door to spot a man over her. The room stunk of rotten flesh and he kept moaning and groaning. "HELP ME!!" Mom yelled, punching the man in the face which turned to look at me. Lashing out my pistol, I aimed for the head before shooting it. Masses of brain - I think - flew everywhere and his blood splattered everywhere.

"SPIT IT OUT NOW!" I shouted at my mom who instantly spit out some blood which were some weird colour. Murky red. I let out a strangled sigh as I gulped. With much hesitation, I carried the heavy zombie and threw it out the window. After locking the window, I headed to my shock mother.
