Jake got out of bed,he looked at the TV,it wasn't on,perhaps he did turn it off,maybe the power was out.(Jack had brown hair,and green eyes) He looked out the window,people just..walking..nobody going anywhere,places where on fire. He didn't think to even wonder,he put on a black shirt and blue jeans,brushed his teeth,and ate breakfast. He fixed his hair and opened the door,but he thought about what he saw 3 minutes ago out the window,so he went into the closet and grabbed his bat. He opened the door and looked around. No one was there,(note he was in a hotel). He slowly went down the hall. It was dark. He was halfway down the hall when,CRASH! A fragment of the roof fell down in front of him. "Ok,other way" He said. He went to the elevator. "It may be still working" He pressed the button. The elevator opened up. He went in. It went down. He heard fire,screaming,and once an explosion. At the same time. The door opened up once again. He stepped out of the elevator. The place was burning. He walked out,looking around,buildings,reduced to rubble. "Hello?" Jake yelled. No response. He walked around. He found himself at the pool. He saw a dead body in the water. And the place seemed to be very messed up."What the heck is going on?!" Jake went to the boardwalk. He saw some guys who looked like they were beating up some girl!!! The girl had long red hair and blue eyes. She had a scratch on her stomach and she just sat there getting jumped by those jerks. Jake had to help! He ran at the men with his bat,hoping he could send them running,but instead, All three turned to him. They had chunks of their flesh missing. And teeth missing. And one had no eyes at all. "Woah woah,Are you okay?" Jake asked. They stood still for 4 seconds. Then with a terrible screech,they all three ran at him. "What the heck!" Jake swung. He hit one. It fell to the ground,but it got back up. He kept swinging. It them again and again. He opened his eyes. They were all dead. "Woah,what a good swinging arm" He said to himself. He turned to the young woman. She was against a building,holding her stomach. "Hey lady are you ok?" Jake asked. "I'll be ok...Hey watch out!" She yelled. Jake looked behind him. Before he could react. He was tackled. He tried to shove off the man,or thing. It wouldn't move. "What is up with you!" Jake yelled. He punched the man. It was just trying to to bite him. "What do you want to eat me or something?!?" He punched it again.And again,and again. All he was doing was getting more blood on his hands. Suddenly, it stopped moving. He threw it off of him. The young woman was standing with a blade. "It's dead.."She said. "Yeah I see that" Jake said like a bawss. She helped him up. "I'm Monica" "My names Jake" A loud screech was sounded. more decaying people came around the corners,walking...just walking towards them. "How would something that slow pose a threat" Jake said. "You'd be surprised" Monica replied. "Run!" They turned and ran. But Monica didn't get anywhere. "Forgot about the scar..." "Dang,fine..Imma do it the fast way" Jake picked up Monica and threw her over his shoulder. "Let's go" He ran. He didn't stop he shoved everything out of his way. He stopped. He looked around,he could see those things coming from all areas. He was trapped... Boom! A big black pickup truck drove into the scene. "Get in!" The driver yelled. Jake let Monica down. "You're talking to us?" "Who do you think I'm talkin to the dead people?" "Good point." Jake and Monica hopped in the back. They drove off,hitting anything in the way. "Ok,well now that that's over..What's your names?" The driver fixed to mirror. They could see his face,he had spiked grey hair,a cigar,a grey shirt and black boots,he had black pants on also,and shoulder pads,and no one could forget his eyepatch and pirate stubble. "The names Marco mate..You are?" "I'm Jake,and this is Monica" "Nice mate...so...Do you not see that thing or.." "What!?" An infected reached it's hand through the window,breaking the glass. It grabbed onto Jake's shoulder" "Get off me!" Jake yelled. He whacked the thing in the head with his bat. "Get off will you!" He hit it again. It let go Jake's shoulder,it screeched and grabbed the bat. It yanked it out of Jake's hands. Jake punched it and it fell off with a loud scream. "It's like they have super strength" "They do mate" "What do you mean?" "The infected don't tire,the keep going till they get what they want,no matter how bad or how hard you hit them,they keep going" "So why are some of them so fast,and some slower then a car outta gas?" "Those are Rabid infected,they're hearts are still working.The ones that don't move too fast are practically already dead..." "How did they die?" "The vaccine is meant to give humans super strength,speed,endurance,and vision...It was too much for most to handle,those who were actually fit for the virus,become Tyrants,the virus takes all your blood and gives it back to your heart,your heart takes over,and your mind is killed off,your body does it's best to keep you alive,by going with instinct,the last thing left,and the victim will hunt down and kill anything to stay alive,accept it's own kind.." "How do you know all this?" Monica asked. "Do you have secrets?" Monica nodded. "So do I"
