I hate writing this down, I have nearly a full page of our dead in my diary. We need more people and supplies. We're thinking of going to Inverness again to look for supplies

Emd of diary log.

We discovered that when a non infected person is killed they turn, this means the virus has evolved and we're all infected. Knowing this it means we need to survive more than ever and if we  do kill anyone we need to destroy the brain.

We're planning  to go back to Inverness to see how badly infested the city is. I want to go to the police HQ and see if there's anyone officers or any form of emergency services left.

Before Z-Day the government changed the laws on guns and weapons to be more like America. Part of this was all emergency services now carry body armour and all police carried a GLOCK amd. A taser. Another part of this was the introduction of RFID trackers or radio frequency identification trackers if killed or the person died for what ever reason their beacon tracker gave off a signal and they would have a red dot on the tracker maps at the HQ. So once we get there if we can still get power then we should be able to see if there is anyone else and were they are.

4 hours later we were back in Inverness first stop. Any shop that might have food, then home and lastly the HQ.

We managed to find a small diesel moter to power the map, we found a lot of red dots but there was one location with several green dots together after zooming in on the map we discovered it was the city's nuclear bunker only problem was is they would most likely have sealed the door so there was little chance of us getting in bit it was worth a shot.

As i looked at the names of the group in the bunker there was 5 names that stood out from the rest, 2 of the 5 was red, it was kelsey Cherise's wife. And my sister Maisie. The other 3 were Alan Maclennan, Eve Alexsandria Carr Hutchison, my ex and Suzanne Johnson an old friend of mine and my primary school crush. The three were still green. I didn't know how to tell Cherise other than taking her to the console and showing her. She just broke down on the console crying. After a few minutes Georgia shouted to us that there was zombies closing in so I picked Cherise up into a fireman's lift amd ram to the  back of the room and kicked open the fire door, we them ran down amd into the van and drove to the bunker.

When we got there the gate had been left open. We go up to the front door after blocking the gate with the van. When we got to the door a voice I hadn't heard since I was 18 came over a speaker next to a camera, it was Alan, I walked up pulled down my balaclava I spoke to him, a few minutes later the door opened and two people in fireman gear with a gas mask on came to the door.

Their voices were muffled but we could.still understand them

"follow us, we'll take you to the decontamination area and proceed from there"

"Weres Alan?"

"until we get past decon I can't tell you"

After we went through decontamination and got checked for the infection we were cleared to enter.

"well, would yoi look who we have here"

I turned round to see Alan standing by a computer

We all kept chatting and found out that they are packing up as the bunker was falling apart and they had found zombies in some of the halls so we said to them thay we had a house just outside aviemore thay we have been holding up in.
