It all started some five years back. I was only 21 at the time. Reports of mysterious zombie like creatures began to pop up in the media. No one believed them at first, thinking it was just some drug epidemic. Why would they at first? This world had all kinds of drugs that could cause all sorts of behaviors and such. It wasn't until the reports kept increasing in number per day that people started to panic and start rioting. Bodies started piling up in the streets, and chaos didn't seem to fall too far behind. I was at home, when I had to start my own preparations. I had no clue what to do at first. I had so much to worry about here. But I had to abandon all of it and focus on protecting myself. So I hopped into my car, nicknamed black Beauty. I gathered my funds and I set about finding people to modify my vehicle for the apparent apocalypse. I had it modified with everything one would need for such a situation.
The first mods were all security and radio/communications based. I also included satellite connectivity functions. The next mods were defense and offense based. I had spots to place all the guns and gear I picked up as I made my preparations. Slots for pistols, rifles, etc. I also had storage spaces included for travel gear, food, water, etc. The next mods I had the wheels modified to withstand almost any damage. I also had the wheels with features like spikes, and such I could deploy at will. Needless to say I was well prepared. I was all alone though, the friends I had, well I had no idea where they were. I didn't have the time to look for them. I hoped that they were better off than I was.
After the car was fully done, I decided I would leave the city and try to go for places that didn't get looted yet. I was halfway out the city when I spotted abandoned cars and bodies. Jesus, it had already spread to my city so fast. Even though it had only been a few months. I stopped, and I readied my sidearm and I had a AR-15 on my back for backup. My sidearm was a glock. In the car I also had a shotgun and knives prepared. On my hip I did carry a large blade for silent kills if need be. I slowly approached the bodies and made sure they were dead by stabbing their heads and slicing their spines in two. Nobody was around. It was eerily quiet. I moved forward slowly, advancing on the vehicles after searching the bodies. It was getting dark soon. I had to find somewhere to rest for the night...
