I walked down the path to the apartment I lived in with my parents. The day in school had been long and tiring and I just wanted to lie in bed.
Walking down the last street I noticed that the city had become deathly quite, except for police sirens in the background. Just as I reached the apartment building, it started pouring down with rain.
"Great." I muttered to myself. Don't get me wrong, I love the rain, but I was wearing my school uniform. It consisted of a black tank dress, a white t-shirt shirt, white stockings and black shoes. Great uniform, I know, I'm the one who has to wear it for five days every week.I quickly turned into my apartment building. Evie was at the check in seemed quite scared, shaking and sweating. I walked up to her to ask her what was wrong.
"Hey Evie, what's wrong?" I asked.
"Oh July, come in here and see the news." Evie said, summoning me behind the counter.I ignored the little door and just climes over. As I got over I could here the television.
"These people have been seen wandering the city and biting people. These people then turn into what they are like. The government has declared a state of emergency and is telling everybody to stay inside at all costs. If you see one of these people do not help them or you will die." A males voice said.I turned to Evie. Her apartment was on the other side of the city.
"Come up to my apartment." I said.
"Okay." Evie agreed.I held Evie's hand as we both walked up to my apartment, on the fourth floor. When we got to the door I turned around to look at Evie.
"Wait here." I told her. "I'll text you when you can come in."
Evie nodded in response.I unlocked the door to the apartment, the worst place on earth for me. The living room door was closed, as usual, and the sound of the television could be heard. I sighed and went to my room.
As I was about to text Evie to tell her to come in I felt something behind me. I flinched and turned to look at the person. I almost screamed, when I saw it was my mum I felt a lot better.
"Oh mum, you're home early today, I'm glad it's not just me and dad. I know you say he's kind but I don't think so." I said, running to hug her.I grabbed my mum and noticed that her body was cold, freezing cold. I stepped back to take a good look at her. That's when I noticed, my mum was not 'alive'. I gasped and stepped back. Just as I was about to run through the doorway my dead dad came and stood there.
My back hit against the windows as my parents got closer. I was going to have to jump out of the windows, but I was on the fourth floor, I'd probably die. I guess anything is better than being killed by you're already dead parents.
I smashed through the glass and started falling, back first. The rain pounded against me as I fell. I was scared. Was I going to die? Will I turn into the walking dead like my parents? Was Evie okay?
Before I could answer my questions my body hit a bunch of rubbish. I winced and checked myself for any injuries. That's when I noticed that my left arm was stained with scarlet blood. My left arm had been split open from my wrist to my shoulder. There was probably glass in it but I seriously couldn't care less. I took out my phone and texted Evie to meet me outside if the apartment building. It took longer than I thought it would take because my phone screen had been smashed.
After I texted Evie I got up and went to the doors of the apartment building. It actually took a lot of energy because every time I stepped my arm throbbed terribly. Hopefully I could find a doctor that was still alive to stitch it up. I finished my thought just as I got a text from Evie. I read it and prepared for the worst. This was not going to be easy.
