The Darker Days

chapter 1: The Beginning

*footsteps*
I was writing in my little diary as I heard the T.V. turned very quickly. My sister, Lily, was
freaking out about what she saw.
Me and her were home alone because our parents went to Florida for a business trip.
"What is going on?" I asked.
"There is some kind of protest in the city."
We don't live in the city because dad doesn't like the noise so we live on a farm.
I watched the news with her as we heard something outside. It sounded like moaning and footsteps.
Lily grabbed a knife and opened the door slowly.
"Stay here," she said quietly.
"What are you going to do?" I asked.
"Something,"
I stayed in the house wanting to call the police. Lily walked outside and she saw a human looking sick and he was bloody. He was walking slow and looked like he needed help.
"Sir? Do you need help?"
He didn't speak. He kept walking up to her. I just stand by the door watching her.
"Sir? Hello?"
Once he got close to her, he tried biting her on her left shoulder. She backed up but he kept trying to get her.
"Lily!" I yelled.
"No stay back." She said as she is trying to get away.
She dropped her knife and the man kept trying to get her. She kept backing up and backing up away from the man but kept coming.
Lily started to run away and I was all alone in the house.
I didn't know what to do so I called the police but they didn't answer. I would of called my parents but I know that they are busy.
I went outside and picked up the knife that Lily left in the grass.
"Lily? Where are you?" I said quietly.
I walked around the house looking for Lily until I saw the man that was trying to bite Lily.
He reached for me but I backed up. He fell onto the ground and I tried to run but he reached for my foot.
I fell and was trying to struggle out of his grip. I still had the knife but I didn't want to kill a human being.
*gun shot*
I saw the man get shot in the head while I was laying on the ground. I see a boy with a gun in his hands right in front of me.
