Well, this is not a history i wanna tell, is not a fairy tale, there’re not princesses and of course there’s not a happy ending.

All began two years ago due a failed experiment in Paris, a laboratory exploded, and since that time the lives of all people changed because of radiation. The radiation caused a virus makes them altered all the functions of the human being having to feed on human flesh. The first victim was Dr. Ritcher, because he was in the lab at the time of the explosion, and was the closest to the radiation. After a few days of the accident the "transformation occurred" in his house and he bit his wife. Immediately made them a few studies and discovered that he was infected and had no choice but to kill him. his wife also became infected by the bite so they discovered that there were more ways to spread, and soon all France had the virus. Infected people were called zombies and the few healthy people were called survivors.

My name is Rue Kaleva, I'm from Munich but by a family problem, my dad and i moved to Paris, there we started a new life, my dad got married and had baby, my dear brother, called Dave, Dave Kaleva. our life was quiet,due the experiment a lot of people died, but we didn't, we were survivors, living in the forest, trying to keep us alive.

one day the phone rang, was grandma.

-hi, your mom brought a friend home- said her nervously

-but what is the problem, i mean she's single- said i trying to defend her a little

-he's sick, maybe is infected- said her with a creepy voice

-grandma your crazy, the virus couldn't have arrived to Munich- said i to reassure, though I knew that by being a pandemic was already worldwide

every day passed quickly, staying in sometimes, and other times being outside, killing zombies.

as every single day, we were on the house when suddenly the phone rang again, was my grandma, she was screaming, asking for help. My mom's friend had just become and bit my mom, so she was almost dead, with two zombies in the house she didn't have many chance to live, however she took a gun and tried to kill them, but this was in vain, because when she opened the door the two zombies were launched and ended with her in a few bites.

This was very hard for me, it was horrible to hear how my mother and grandmother were dying and I could not do anything, but I knew it would happen someday, so unfortunately I had to move on with my li

like always we went looking for food supplies, I was with my brother while my dad walked into a store for food, my dad call me, so I ran into where he was and when I arrived he was lying on the floor, he had been bitten by a zombie, so even if it was very difficult I had to kill my own father.

Dave and I were completely alone, me, with only 18 years old, taking care of Dave, with just 6. so we had to survive if we wanted to keep living. I have to teach him how to shoot a gun and how to kill zombies and for his short age before shooting we counted to make it better.Months passed and we always were going through all the cities, one day we hear a message from Spain, there were men who knew the problem, but they were so bad that they did not care, they only cared about themselves

This is a notice for people who are still alive, if there are still survivors. We want you to know that we know everything about the virus, but for the magnitude of this we can't do anything to help you. The point is that if someone wants to come to Spain to kill us or anything, we will be at our shelter, with water and food, although we know that it is impossible to arrive alive

had already passed two years, and Dave now was eight years old, and now I was twenty years old, we were walking when we found a police station.

-Dave look, probably there there are survivors, there's water- said i excited, but we can't take it because the glasses were polarized and I couldn't pull the door cause it would make a lot of noise and that would attract the zombies

-if you want i can pass the door- said Dave, because the door had a small opening where only a child could pass

-please, and there you can open the door- said i and immediately he did it

when he was trying to pass the door, of the police station came out a man who at that moment was transformed, and bit my brother, but he doesn't killed Dave, he only ripped a piece of his hip and left him suffering, so i killed the zombie and. I didn't mind the noise and pull the door to take out Dave of there

-Rue please kill me- said Dave

- Are you sure?-

-Yeah, please count with me like always-

-OK, so... are you ready?- I asked as I normally do

-yeah- he said following the routine

-... one...- said i

-...two...- said Dave

-... three...- we both said, i I took a breath, closed my eyes, and finally shot

I was there crying, Dave was all i have, I was now completely alone, and if before i had rancor, now i wanted to kill them and i'd do anything to get to Spain, anyway I had nothing to lose, so i so I started to walk towards Spain.

On the way, even in France, i met a group of survivors with my own intentions, there was probably the most handsome man I've ever seen in my life his name was Colton Dallas, tall, blonde, and with big green eyes, he was perfect, I was accepted into their group i so continue with them to Spain.

we were always in pairs, and every time a different couple have to go to search food. One day Colton and I were to the city for food, and when we came back there were the dead bodies of our fellow, somebody had killed them, so we took our stuff and we walked .

I fall in love more everyday and he did it too. One day we were together and I saw a mole on his back, It was a beautiful mole, was shaped like a moon. immediately it reminded me Dave, they had the same mole but Dave had it in the leg.

whenever we were closer to the fort in Spain, a day i woke up and Colton wasn't next to me. I decided to stay there waiting cause i knew he would come back, and so it was, he came back running

-Rue a zombie bit me- said Colton

-Colton I love you but I should kill you- said i, my life couldn't be worse

-no Rue, i wanna be with you til the end- said Colton- when I transform I want you to use me for the good, I can turn into zombies to scientists from Spain, but i wanna be with you whatever happens-

so i accepted and waited with him the transformation,usually these are transformed in less than a day, but it had been 4 days and was still well. In Spain even had a few doctors committed to their work, so they did some research and after a few days found that Colton was immune to the virus, actually everyone with that mole were immune... so Dave was immune too, and i killed him... he was immune...

the Dr. continued to the studies and realized that even if I didn't have the virus was bearer of this and he supported us with the idea of enter the fort and kill them, when colton bite them, he would passed the virus, and they would die.

so we did it,we arrived the fort and there was't security so we came in, there were three people, a police, and two scientists, Colton ran towards them and immediately bit them. I saw were suffering as well as all my family suffered and I felt an inner peace. then we leave the fort and returned to the laboratory, where right now they're seeking a cure for the virus.

it's definitely the worst experience of my life, and you don't know how depressing it is to know you killed people who didn't have to die.

but if something I learned was that if I had not rebelled, if I had not learned to shoot, and if haven't that grudge, i probably wouldn't come to Spain and i would be one more zombie, because I discovered that rebellion is the only thing that keeps you alive.
