*beep beep beep* I shut off my alarm. I look at the time, it's 8:30. "Shit i'm late" I hurry down the stairs and grab a quick bite to eat. I notice that my family is already gone. "They must have had an early morning" I grab my keys and enter the garage. "Damnit my boss is going to kill me" I say worried. 

I hop into my DANK Mini Cooper S, start the engine and drive out of the garage. "Why do I live so far away from my job" I complain. I drive down the highway "It's really peaceful today, that's really weird it's usually quite busy around this time". I arrive at my work and  everything is normal. I get to work on my computer when suddenly some  crazy guy bursts through the door and slowly makes his way over to one of my fellow coworkers, Jonah. "Are you ok?!" Jonah says frightened. 

The crazy man was covered in blood, looked like half his neck was bit off , was moaning and gurgling and was missing his left forearm. I notice Jonah reaching into his back pocket.

I ran towards the nearest fire escape and headed down to the ground floor. People were freaking out on the streets, running and panicking. I noticed more of those crazy people attacking random civilians, biting them, ripping them apart and eating them. "Shit I think i'm going to be sick" I say gaging. I head into one of the alleyways behind the building, then all of a sudden... BOOM. The piercing sound of a bomb going off made me clutch my head in pain. 

Then as a stand there trying to keep my bearings, someone or something hits my head and right before I blackout I hear, "This one will do". Then it all goes black...
