Hi, I'm Axel 24 years old living in the one place no body wants to live in.
Where I live, It isn't all that grand I guess you could say It's not exactly your typical vacation spot.
About a three years ago on my twenty-first birthday the world was taken over, and trust me it wasn't just by anything. It had to be the worst fucking thing on this planet, zombies it couldn't have been robots or some shit like that, No it had to be fucking zombies.
So you know I did the thing all people would do in an apocalypse, build a base and survive as long as you can.
I had a base not too far from where there was civilization not like it would have mattered they're all rotting alive and trying to kill me. Although there were a few people I have met along this hell I have been living amongst these past three years, they turned out to be my best friends and not only because they could be the only other people on this planet other than me.
During my birthday three years ago I wandered off from my party with a friend because that party was the worst thing ever and I just wanted to get out, walking around the streets at midnight isn't all that of a great idea though so Kace came along with. He was my best friend I've basically known him all my life.
We were walking the streets and we noticed someone laying in the street hunched over someone else we figure there was a bad accident so we started walking towards asking if they needed help, yeah well when this guy turned around and all he did was grunt and run at us with blood dripping from him we figured it was time to change our path. Geez you try and help some people.
But seriously could you imagine that? Seeing someone who looks like they need help one second then the next have them turn around dripping in blood chasing you, pretty fucking scary if you ask me.
While we're running my idiot friend decides to stop. Really dude? So as I'm pushing him to keep going I see more and more zombies rolling up in the distance finally he started running again till we reached safety where we are now.
"Dude those things looked really familiar." Kace said
"Yeah well you know what's gonna be familiar?" I said trying to open the door to the house. "That... Thing, tearing out our insides if you do not help me open this door."
"Alright relax I'll help."
After we got in we scoped out the house to make sure no one was home then got to barracading the doors and windows. Because I sure as hell did not want any of those things getting in here with me.
"Kace turn the lights on will you?" I asked so I could see what we walked into a lot better than using my phone screen, and man were we in luck.
This house had been fully remodeled on the inside, it looked all junky on the outside but on the inside it was amazing. Brand new furniture, kitchen, bathroom, you name it these people remodeled it.
"Axel this house is amazing." Kace implied.
"These people sure must of lived large."
**********************
So yeah that is where this whole thing started and it's sad. People used to vacation here all the time till all of this started.
We went from being able to go out and getting anything anytime we needed it to weekly supply runs with seven different kinds of weapons cause hey, you never know.
I guess on the bright side, you don't have to pay for anything anymore you really just gotta make sure you live sometimes it's complicated but that's why I'm glad I have Kace, Tegan, and Lacey with me. I couldn't imagine doing this alone and I really know I couldn't of pulled off all of the barracading and firearm gathering if I was alone here.
