The world we knew is gone forever, happy days under the sun, spending time with your friends and family, it's all gone. There is only death and despair now...

Tears fell down Kyo's face as he looked down at the lifeless corpse of his sister, Rio and gripped the baseball bat in his hand, the very thing he used to end her. The young girl had became a victim of the undead and rose again only to be taken down by her older brother, the one person who loved her the most.

"Goodbye, Rio" Kyo said and wiped his face, running off to find his uncle.

Kyo ran through the streets, all he could hear were the screams and cries for help as people lost their lives to the undead, rising up to become one of "them" as well.

"Uncle... Where are you?" Kyo asked himself as he used his bat to bash the skulls of the undead beings around him.

After a long while Kyo found Kyoya, the man was gripping his arm tightly and Kyo gripped his bat.

He was too late.

"Uncle were you bitten?" Kyo asked, he knew the answer but didn't want it to be true.

"Y-yeah one of them snuck up on me" Kyoya replied. "Did you find Rio?"

"I did but it was too late" Kyo looked down, his bangs covering his eyes. "I put her down and since you were bitten, I'll have to do the same to you"

Kyoya smiled softly and ruffled his hair. "You can do it now"

Kyo looked up at him. "What?"

"Y-you saw your sister become one of those things and I know you don't want to see me the same way... So kill me now"

"I can't do that, uncle" Kyo said.

Kyoya grunted and groaned in pain, gripping his arm. "P-please, Kyo... Do it for me" he looked into his nephew's eyes.

Kyo stood up and nodded. "If that's what you want..."

Kyoya grinned as Kyo raised his bat in the air. "You're just like your father... You both grew up to be fine young men" he chuckled softly and clutched his arm. "I love you, nephew"

"I love you too, uncle" Kyo said and brought the bat down with great force.

His uncle's blood splattered and Kyo looked at his lifeless body and then the bat in his hands.

"Graa..."

Kyo turned around and saw the undead coming his way. "You... You bastards took my family away from me"

Kyo charged at "them" and bashed each of their heads. The sound only brought more so Kyo made a run for it.

"I'm on my own now" he said and soon found a shop that sold weapons and went inside.

'The world is gone, there is no more happiness, only despair' Kyo looked at the bat in his hand. 'Holding onto past memories is no longer important if there is no one to share them with'

Kyo dropped the bat and found a katana, he picked it up and left the store.

'This world is now hell'
