Rain. Ew. Mud. Everywhere. I was walking in my favorite new boots in mud. I was walking from work and walking from my car to my door had me soaked in rain. I slammed the door and threw my purse on my leather couch.

Oh, hi. I'm Ashley. Ashley Rose. I'm 23. I have short brown hair and a sassy attitude. I want to lead my own business one day. I also work out a lot. I have brown eyes and a tiny bit of freckles.

My skin is a bit tan. I'm wearing a black shirt with a white thin jacket over it. I'm also wearing jeans and new boots. My hair is messed up and now looking frizzy and messy.

I walk over to take a shower. I turned on the water. Ice cold. I waited a few seconds. Still ice cold. I kicked the faucet. Didn't stop from being ice cold.

Dammit. What was wrong with the water??

I decided to stop trying and went to bed, miserable. I was pissed from work. I work at a business that makes "futuristic technologies". Guess what I am? A coffee woman. I just started a week ago and I'm all the workers assistant. I usually give people their coffee and give other people their paperwork. This one person I give coffee to is such a douche. He yells at me and tells me I'm a useless woman. It's enraging.

I snuggle into my bed praying for a good nights sleep.

• the next morning •

Screaming. I woke up to screaming. It was a girls voice. A teenager. I checked my phone to see if it's a video that was playing when I got many notifications.

"Zombie outbreak!"

What?

Is this a joke? Zombies? That only exists in the movies, right?

I realize. The screaming is outside. I ran to my front door, wearing what I wore yesterday. Then I saw them. The zombies. The biters. Surrounding a girl.

She had blonde hair. Bright blue eyes. And braces. She was pale. She looked skinny and looked like she couldn't fight. I wanted to help her.

I ran over and grabbed the zombie thing. I pushed to the ground. I screamed at the girl, "RUN! RUN TO MY HOUSE! THE DOOR IS UNLOCKED." I pushed and kicked the biters while the girl escaped to my house. I kicked the last one in the stomach and ran toward the house.

I closed the door behind me and fell to the ground. Dirt was all over me.

The girl started to cry.

I comforted her. "What's your Name?" I said patting her shoulder.

"..Bea.."
"Hi Bea.. what's wrong"
She hesitated.

"..my family."
