The Dead Roam The Earth

How it began

I had been assigned to a government operated facility that was testing drugs on people with cancer. They needed someone that understands the human anatomy because there have been odd side affects happening to the last group of people and since I'm the best in my work they moved me to this facility . "Hey you alright?" Someone asked me snapping me out from my thoughts. "Oh, sorry I was just thinking about what has been happening to the people." I told the person "Yah I could understand that I've been in there once, it was not pretty." He told me physically shaking "So what is your name my friend?" I asked him "My name is Jonathan Weaver, but everyone calls me John." He tells me reveling his name to me. He was at least five foot eleven, he was bald and had lean muscle, he reminded me of vin diesel."My name is Chris Breslau." I tell him "So you're going to figure out what's happening to these people?" He asked me " I'm hoping that I can find out what's happening to them before anything else happens to them." I tell him with determination and confidence flowing through me as I say those words. Just as I finished I hear someone screaming. "What was that?" I asked Johnny. He looked panicked " I don't know, but it came from the east wing, we should-." I didn't stay to hear the rest of what he said as I race towards were the scream was coming from. 

When I got to where the screaming was coming from it was coming from the area that I was supposed to be going to. I push the door open and see two doctors trying to restrain a man on a table. " What is happening to him!" I ask them frantically " We don't know he just started screaming!" The man ripped out of their grip and started to swing his arms. His fist connected with the doctor's face to the right flinging him into the wall hitting some surgical equipment and knocked it over. He leaped off the table and tackled me to the floor. My back hit the floor and my head got smashed into the ground leaving me dazed until I felt a burning pain course though my right shoulder. I look down and saw that he had grabbed a surgical knife and had stabbed me with it. Adrenaline started to flow though me at a fast pace. I didn't feel the pain in my shoulder so I grabbed his neck with my right arm and used my left to twist me him off. As soon as I flung him off of me he landed on his back and started to convulsed. The doctor and I watched as his eyes rolled into the back of his head and with the last of his energy reached his hand out to us, foam coming out of his mouth, his face contorted in pain then he his body went limp. The doctor slowly crept towards the man and checked his pulse, he looked towards me "He's dead" a look of shock spread across both are faces. I looked at the doctor that had now taken off his coat and placed it over the corpse. "Tell me what happened here." I tell him "We we're checking his vitals and gave him something to try and help with the pain, then right after we gave it to him his eyes shot open and then he started to scream we tried to calm him down but then he started to attack us, so we had to restrain him." I nod at his report, but I don't understand why that would happen. I go check on the other doctor to make sure he's alright. I tried to shake him awake until  I notice there was a puddle underneath him I turn him on his chest to look at his back and I see he landed on the surgical equipment and had gotten stabbed all across his back, but one was lodged in the back of his head. I felt my food force it's way up my throat and into my mouth. The sour taste was repulsive. I put my hand over my mouth to prevent me from throwing up. I turn to the other doctor and was going to tell him he was dead, but the man that was dead just a minute ago was standing behind the doctor. " Behind you!" I yell at the doctor. The man opens his eyes, they were now pupil less and had red veins running down his eyes and all the way to his cheeks. Before the doctor could react the man grabbed him and bit into his neck. The doctor let out a blood curdling scream. The man started tearing off a chunk of the doctor's neck. As he was tearing it off I could see muscle and tendons being ripped apart like string cheese.

Panicking I rushed out of the room. As I get out of the room I feel something tackle me from the my left side to the ground. When I hit the ground I heard a sickening crunch as pain erupts in my left arm. I look to my arm and see one of the scientists that works here tearing a part of my arm off. I flip off my stomach and kick his head to make him let go. His head jerked back and tore the piece of my arm that he had off. I let out a scream and watched as his body jerked and twisted as his hands twisted backwards and pushed himself up. He very slowly stocked towards me as if waiting for me to make a move. I notice the knife that was in my shoulder is behind me lying on the ground. I lung for the knife and I hear him sprint towards me. I grab the knife and spin around  as he's descending on me and I stab him in the side of his head and his body crashes into me and pins me on the ground. I flip him off me and I notice that the lights are now red and a alarm is going off. "What the hell is going on?" I ask myself trying to figure out what was happening. I was trying to find the entrance to the facility to get out when I heard gunshots echoing through the hallway. "Hello?!" I shoutout into the darkness. The response I got was a groaning sound. A doctor emerged from the shadows. Blood running down from his mouth all the way to the middle of his chest. He limped towards me, his whited out eyes darting across the hallway. "How has he not seen me?" I ask me self. I watched as it's foot hit a cup and it rolled until it hit the wall. He rushed the wall as soon as he heard the sound and smashed it's face into the wall. I realize that there blind and only respond to sound. I slowly start to back up when I hear crunching coming from below me. I look down and see that I stepped in some broken glass. Terrified I slowly look up and he's looking straight at me, my body frozen from fear, the only thing I'm able to do is watch as he listens for me trying to find me. Then I hear the man start to talk. "Hello is anybody there?" I was in shock, the man was talking to me, maybe he wasn't like the man who attacked me and the other doctors "Hello" I say with cation to the man. The man stopped asking if someone was there and started growling, then he let out a high pitch scream and sprinted for me. I tripped and fell on my back. As he was upon me his head exploded sending chunks of his head everywhere and I got sprayed with blood, temporarily blinding me. I wiped the blood out off my face and looked up to see Jonathan with a shotgun that had smoke slithering out of the barrel. "Are you alright?" Jonathan asked me. "I'm ok, but what the hell is happening?" I asked him to see if he knew what was happening, but he just shook his head. "I'm just as clueless as you." He tells me then reaches his hand down to help me up. I grab his hand and he helps me up on my feet. I look around and find the surgical knife I had been carrying and pick it up. "So we're is the entrance to the facility?" I ask him. "It's just a little further ahead." He told me, but as we were walking I started to feel extremely uncomfortable. My palms we're sweating, the room started to sway back and forth, and I felt my left arm where the bite was at pulsating. "Hey, you alright you don't look so good?" He asked "I'm fine just a little dizzy from all the blood I've lost." I answered truthfully, but I know something isn't right with me. "Well we should head out of hear and put this place in shutdown mode so none of them can get out." The clean headed man said. As we were walking down the hall we could hear screaming and cries for mercy. "How did it get this bad so quickly?" I ask John "I don't know after you left I heard screams from the west wing and then people came running out and started eating each other, the only reason I'm still alive is because the security guard bought me enough time to get away and gave me the gun." He told me with a deep look on his face. I look down knowing the guard was probably dead. I look up and hear whispers from up further ahead. I tap Johnathan on the arm and jerk my head in the direction of the hallway. He looks down the hallway and for a second everything was silent, then he turns to me and nods at me and puts a finger over his mouth signifying to be quit and continue walking forward.
