Prologue.

Right Now, I'm alone. No one, absolutely no one to turn to. I've never been the social kind of person, but I do miss having people around. Everyone I know or ever known is gone. My parents, my friends, teachers, aunts, uncles, everyone.Actually,I still have hope.My aunt Andrea lives in Atlanta and that's where i'm heading. I can't manage to have a breakdown right now, especially in the conditions I now live in. I haven't been very specific have I? Well the world went to shit. It was already going down the toilet but this time it really went down. In just a week, disaster struck. Famine struck. A unknown disease spread. No one knows exactly what it is, but it turns you into a lifeless, useless, hungry animal. You are basically not human anymore, but you maintain you form...sort of. All I know is that the world we used to know is gone.

Just in this past week, I've lost every single person that was ever important to me. I watched as my mom was being eaten alive. The last thing my dad said was to get in the car, gather supplies, gather ammo, anything of importance that I could find.

I used to travel with my other four brothers, but we all separated due to certain circumstances.

*Flashback*

It was just a summer day in my typical life. I was packing to go on a road trip with my four brothers and my parents.

My day was a genetics scientist or something like that. My mom worked as a doctor. I was basically raised by my4 brothers, which I love to pieces. My oldest brother, Alexander, was 23. Then it's Andy, who is 21. Aaron is 19 and Ashton is 17. Then it was me. We were born and raised in Texas, but our parents are from Georgia. We go there every summer. We were going there for this summer because our dad had to go work over there and my mom is taking some time off to spend time with us. We leave tomorrow and i'm so excited. I can't wait to see my aunt Andrea, and Amy. Amy and Andrea are like the sisters I never had.

It was barely 12pm. The Texas heat was going strong this summer. I went to the ranch with my brothers for some shooting session. I think maybe my specialty was my crossbow. We went inside our house and the smell of mom's cooking went straight to my nose. "Kids, your dad comes out of work early today and i'm off." She said with a smile. "That's great, maybe we can have some sort of family night." Andy suggested. "I don't know, Scar is going to get her license in about a week and she still needs to practice" Alex informed. " It's always the oldest sibling that bursts everyone's bubbles" I joked.

We all sat around the table, and joked while our mom chopped some veggies. We heard a noise at the door and my dad came in very stirred up. He locked the door and nervously looked outside. "Everybody listen up. Something is going on. An unknown disease is on the lose. It turns people into cannibals." My dad said with a firm voice. My eyes filled with fear while a million questions ran through my head. This can't be happening. " I need you guys to get your backpacks and gather all the supplies you can. You see an infected person shoot them straight in the head, don't hesistate." We all rushed to our rooms and gathered everything. I took some pictures to some memories. All my brothers and I were upstair when we heard a scream. Our mom was being attacked.

"Mom! You're going to be okay." I said as tears streamed down my face. "Scarlett we gotta go!" Ashton pulled me outside. Chaos took over the streets of my neighborhood. We all got inside our truck, but I realized our dad didn't. "DAD!" Aaron screamed. "Get on!" My dad shook his head as he showed us his bite. "Daddy No!" I shouted as I hugged him. "You gotta go Scar, be strong." I looked at my dad as he let go of my hand. " I'll send an angel to look over you, but meanwhile you got 4. Go to Atlanta, Georgia and find your aunt Andrea, I know you guys can do it.I love you all now go." With that, we drove off on a journey to Atlanta.. *One Week before Scarlett was on her own* We were very close to Atlanta. It was about a 5 hour drive to the city. Night was coming soon so we decided to make camp for tonight. My brothers and I have survived 1 week so far. We have been looting around homes ,with no people of course. We haven't seen any survivors since. We made our camp in a small town that was basically cleared from geeks. I decided to call them that. We didn't wanna take any chances so we made camp inside a small apartment. My brother Ashton and I went hunting today and got quite a few game. "Scar, you become a better hunter as everyday goes by." Andy said trying to cheer me up. "And I become more depressed as everyday goes by." I said weakly. Aaron hugged me as he ate his meal. " Cheer up booger, we'll get through this." "Did you guys hear that?" Ashton said wide awake. "Ashton go to sleep, your mind is playing tricks." Alex said annoyed. "No it's not I heard it too" Andy said backing him up. We checked outside and there wasn't any walkers nearby, but we did see a car. It wasn't there before. We were walking back to our camp when we saw a group of 5 men around their late 20s standing in our room. They didn't look friendly at all, I was getting a bad vibe. They looked much stronger than us., but that didn't intimate us. I pointed my crossbow at one of them. "Woah, careful there sweet cheeks. You wouldn't wanna shoot me." He spat in my face. He was now standing to close to me. "Get Away from her." Alex spat back. "Calm down boys, we just want to have a little fun." The man said as he lowered my sleeve. Over my dead body. "Scar RUN.!" Ashton shouted. I ran away but the other 4 men managed to tackle me down. They wanted to rape me. No this cant happen. I fought back and luckily kicked one of the guys in his pair. Andy and Ashton came to help me while Aaron and and Alex got the other guy. "Scar RUN,GO!" my brothers screamed. I stood there aiming for the other men. "SCAR WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? RUN" Ashton screamed. I had to go. These guys were determined to rape me. I had no choice. I took my backpack and I found some random car and left. Tears were streaming down my face. My brothers were the only thing I had. Now my only hope is my aunt.
