Hey guys, it's S.D here!! I think everyone will like this way better than my other story. I hope you enjoy it :D

~7/27/50. 8:42 AM~

The zombie apocolypse started July 25th, 2050. Life was peaceful. Violence had gone down so much more in the world. Every state was friends with each other, and no hate was ever there. Until now. A new product was released. "Radi-X". A supposedly new time of cure to cancer. It sent radioactive waves through a patient and somehow attacked the cancer cells. All the test subjects lived, and now everyone was getting it. It was released and open to the public. It was great for about a week until the first subject started feeling different. Cold and clamy skin, red itchy eyes, loss of memory and confusion, increased aggression and peeling and tinting of the skin. They recalled the product after seeing more and more people being diagnosed, but it was too late. More than a million people had it in their systems. The world panicked, everyone revolted and betrayed each other, stole, faught, killed. The first test subject had escaped. More and more people changed exactly like him. He was no longer himself. The monster overcame him. More and more monsters, less and less humans. It didn't spread, but these creatures were strong, powerful and fast. They only wanted to feast on the corpses of humans. They only wanted to kill. Now it's just Me, Emma, Sam, Alyssa, Matthew, Harley, and Phillip.

You sigh as you flip your journal closed. You shove it into ypur pocket, along with the various weapons. Phillip and Matthew had been barricading the shelter more. Luckily, there were only a few zombies outside so everyone could make runs back and forward. It was your turn to do a run to the city. You walk into the main room and Sam is sitting with Harley creating a map and some plans. Emma is by the office teaching Alyssa how to defend herself, since she was very young. "Hey guys, I'm going out for a run. Anyone have any requests?" You say as you fling your huge bag on your shoulders, stashing your large katana next to you. That was the best weapon to attack the zombies. The best place to attack them is right in the middle, or into the skull. Alyssa ran up to you and hugged your leg tightly,as she did for every run you did. "Pwease.. Don't get hurt." You pat her on the head and kiss her forehead. "Don't worry about it." You hear Sam's voice call out. "Look for some chips." You smile at the young teen, giving her a nod of approval. You open the door awaiting your clear sign. Matthew flashes the signal and you travel outside.

Travelling by foot was a lot easier, since bikes or vechiles would stop you easily. You learned to be quicker on your feet. A zombie jumped up behind you put you took him down with ease. After many times of doing this, you finally make it to the city. You go into the broken window of a small store, striding carefully, snatching 3 walkie talkie off the shelf that just happened the be there. Deciding to continue to search around sounded ideal,  looking for anything more useful. Zombies started to crowd so wisely,  you decided to abandon the store. You walked out the back and slammed right into a huge zombie. It stared down at you, drool falling from it's mouth. You shield yourself from it's first attack and the drool (ew.) And you ducked under him. Sure" they may be strong and fast, but humans were faster. Other zombies started to look over at you, starting to notice. Scaling up the side of the building quickly, ignoring the burn and cut from doing so, You jump over the single zombie up there and push it to the ledge, holding it away from you with your feet. You grab the back of his heel and flip him over into a pile of bushes. Sure, they were trying to kill you" but even the worst can deserve a more peaceful death. You lay down on the pipes, pulling out a sandwich. Meat was hard to find and it attracted alot of zombies which would be problematic.

After grabbing pretty much everything; pain killers, sedatives, unspoilable food, Sam's bag of chips, clothing, water, E.T.C/ you headed back to the house. There were more than 20 zombie around the house for some strange reason. You gasp, wondering about the safety of your friends and people you would call family. You climb onto the roof and look down into the barred light window. All you could see was Alyssa on the floor crying. If there was a zombie in there, it would have gotten to her already. You stab some of the zombies away and run inside, panting. "Alyssa, are you okay??" You walk over to her, your body sore amd bruised and hot, toughing out in the bad weather. She held her knee tightly as you noticed a very large scratch mark. "How did it happen?" You say, holding Alyssa tightly. Harley looked at you. "She went outside after you for some reason,and got attacked by some zombie. But the weird thing was, it almost looked human.. It looked at her with a certain look." He said. You stroke Alyssa's hair, while she slowly stops crying and Emma bandages her leg. Sam gave you a description of the human-like zombie as you continued on your day. You layed your collections on the table and it was sorted and stored. You have a very good run.

That human-like zombie could not get off your mind. The way Sam and Harley described it sounded so intriguing. You wanted to see for yourself. After you got the walkie talkies, you had one, Emma had one, and Matthew had one. All was becoming more relaxed as you stood in your room and sighed again. You banadaged your hands and knees. You were tired and work out, not to mention terrified. You flopped onto your bed and you hear on knock on your door. Philip peeked his head in and looked at you and smiled. "Goodnight, (y/n). Sleep well." He turned off your light and left the room as quickly as he came. It was only aroumd 10, so you decided to take a nap before noon.

A/n: so this chapter was just a filler and a meet the charcaters thing, so now you know what they go through. I hops you guys enjoy :D
