Prologue

"What the hell are those things?!" I yelled as I ran to the living room. I couldn't believe my eyes. Those bloody monsters were banging on my window like they wanted to chomp my head off.

"I don't know! Just get your crap Jazlyn! We gotta get out of here!" Sophia yelled as she packed food and clothes into her bag.

I took out my phone trying to call my parents but I had no service. I was scared out of my mind as I watched one of those monster bite into someone right outside my window.I was terrified. What could have caused this? What is this? I knew this wasn't safe so I quickly ran to my room to pack some more clothes and soon enough those things broke through my window and I screamed.

"Sophia we gotta go!" I yelped. I grabbed my things and dashed for the closet by the front door. I snatched a black box from the top shelf and bolted out the door along with Sophia. Those monsters were everywhere.They seem to have noticed us. I stood there for a few seconds shocked at the sight in front of me. I finally snapped and We dashed towards my car.I started the car shaking and sped off not knowing where I was going. All I knew is that I wanted to be out of that place. I wanted to know my family was safe. I wanted to be safe.

After a few weeks of trying to survive on my own I had finally run out of food and lost Sophia. One of those things got a hold of her while she was sleeping. Luckily I woke up in time and he didn't get me but then she turned into one also.I learned that you had to get then in the head for them to die. It was scary as he'll living in a world like this. I don't think I was "lucky" to survive. I almost gave up hope until this group found me. They were iffy about letting me in with them but an old lady named Carol, who had a daughter named Sophia, convinced the leader, I guess that's what you could call him, to take me in. His name was Rick and he had a wife and son named Lori and Carl. Then there were these other two rednecks named Merle and Daryl. They were both pretty alike in that they treated everyone like shit.Also there was a Korean named Glen, a women named Andre, and old man named Dale, and a man named Shane. They were a pretty good group with a variety of skills. It was like a big family. We soon met up with a little farm house family. The fathers name was Hershel and he had two daughters. One of which began to have a little romance with Glen. Her name was Maggie. By this time we had already lost Sophia, Carol's daughter, and we've been searching for her since then.Especially Daryl who had also lost Merle.we had went back to look for Merle but all we found was his chopped off hand. It was sad but we knew he was still alive. After all "Nobody could kill Merle except for Merle." so Daryl says. Although this world had turned into shit, we still managed to stick together as a group...as a family. We had our fights every now and then but we still stuck together. We lose a lot of people now more than ever so it's become my main priority to survive and not only keep myself safe, but keep these people, who took a chance on me, safe.
