There I was, Just playing basketball with my self when it happened. I saw this very weird thing walking towards me, it was moving pretty quickly. At first I might have though it was a prank like the "Can you zip me up" Vines. I tried taking to it but it would just moan, the moan sounded like an little child have a tramper tantrum. so the first thing that came to me was to through my basketball at it. I'm mean I cause it was the greatest idea because it just bounced right of it head. I ran right to my house to grab my dad but I couldn't find him, so I searched for my mom and couldn't find her either. I started to worry and got scarred. Decide to the police but I the phones weren't working. The only thing I could think of next was to get my friend, James. He and I had been friend for awhile, ever since I moved closer to his house we almost hung out day. By the time I got to his house atleast 10 minutes had gone by, I through my bike on the grass and ran inside. I found him and his dad watching the news, there were talking about people have just started randomly disappearing, and lot of weird thing walking around. they called them Drivers, I asked James why they would call them drivers he just replied with a shrug. We all decided we should go try and find some help somewhere else.

We opened their garage, there we so Drivers. everywhere, there must have been hundreds. James threw a football right at one fore head, we had a little laugh when it fell over. But that wasn't the most wisest choice, all the Drivers turned and looked at us, dead in the eye. l don't know what attracted them, either out laughing or the sound f the trucks door opening. What ever t was I guess they didn't like it, they all started to walk towards us. And that's when we saw running. We were pretty amazing because we have never seen one run yet. So we decided to get in the truck, James and his dad up front and me in the back. James dad ran over one of them, but it was pretty weird because instead of blood going every were a liquid almost like mud with the colour of purple. Before we turned down the street we saw literally get up and start running after us. Of corse it wasn't that bad because James truck was pretty fast. While driving through the city we saw a Walmart with a tarp on it and it read "Help Here". We decided to go check it out, inside there were full medical stations, food stations and sleeping quarters. It was getting late so we go 3 beds of all of us and some food. Before I went to bed I heard some cry.

When I heard the crying it brought tears to my eyes, it was the first time the howl day I thought about my parents. I was an only child, always wished I had a little brother or sister, then I heard James start crying. It was the first time i ever actually heard him cry. His parents were divorced, and he lived with his dad. He also had a little brother which he always got in fights with but at that moment I could tell he really did care for him, shortly after that a fell asleep.

That morning we went to the food station for breakfast, my mother always told me to never skip breakfast cause its the most imported meal of the day. While eating we heard some other people talking, they said there was 2 types of those thing out there, the drivers which we have heard about but they were talking about flatheads, they said there called that cause you could smack em over the head with a shovel and the would still run at you, were as if you hit a driver over the head they usually get knocked out. We started to laugh a little when James dad sat down with us. We talked for a little bit when anther man approached us, he started talking about how we should leave, now. he said he was one of the doctors a patient had recently acting like a driver, and this morning she looked like one too. So we grabbed a bunch of food, and other things we might need a were on our way, we look on our phones to see if there was anything or anywhere we good or do. On one of the news websites said there was a safe place on Florida. Which wasn't an option for us as we all lived in Canada. James was talking about how some website said that this so called "infection" has spread across the hole world and had already killed thousands, with millions of people missing. All this in 36 hours, thoughts start going my mind. What has the world came to ? How the hell are we going to survive ? What caused this ? Is there a treatment ?It was around 11:30am when we found something like the Walmart, except when we walked in it was an abandoned police station.
