the land of the living dead

part 1

CHAPTER 1
Picture this: a soft white sanded beach with hundreds of families laying around and making jokes with not a care in the world.

That's all gone now.

It makes me sick to my stomach just thinking about the day it all started.

Me, my friends and my little sister
My mum was such a bitch, forcing me to look after her

though she didn't know
and that's when she decided to play her bloody running game

I did try to keep up I really did but she managed to slip away from me the sneaky girl

I got all my friends involved in helping me find her without mum finding out what had happened but I guess she must have seen us slip away, well it doesn't matter anymore.

We were all just trying to look for for lily

none of us meant for this to happen

we trampled through the ferns and bushes as they scratched at our arms leaving light red painful marks on our exposed skin but something was off

I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but it left my mind when I started hearing the grunting coming from a few meters away

"guys cmon I can hear a weird noise" I whispered, careful not to be too loud just incase it was some sort of wild animal

we slowly and carefully pushed through the thick thorns trying not to make a sound and stumbled into a clearing of some sort. at first nothing seemed out of the ordinary but as my eyes adjusted to the dimmer setting could see a quivering shape that looked humanoid but did not sound it

we quickly realised a few things, 1 this was the source of the strange grunting and 2

As we trampled through the tough ferns and scratchy thorns we could hear light groaning coming from a clearing and it sounded as though somebody was in pain so we pushed the leaves out of the way to see what was happening
"Emily...?"
"Em? Sweetheart?"
The groans turned to growls so we turned and looked for the source
Our torch finally found the back of a young child with reddish brown stains covering large portions of her and she was gripping a toy tightly in her left hand
"Oh my god, mum thats emily holy crap what happened to her!"
Im not sure if mum heard me or not but she seem unable to talk, until.
"Em... sweetie... are you okay?"

The young girl slowly started to turn around and when she flipped round
screams of terror were unleashed

Her face was covered in blood and pus
The whole right side of her head was caved in giving her a lopsided look
Her teeth and nails were stained in blood and behind her i could see another young boy looking as though she had partially... eaten him?

Suddenly she leapt up and started sprinting at me i was frozen to the ground until my mum dived in front of me and Emily didnt hesitate
She started clawing at mums stomach
as though she was trying to rip it out

I had to stand there in fear as my five year old sister ripped open mum and snacked on the contents
All the while mum was screaming at me to run
I finally came to my senses and started running at top speed looking for help but while I was running I noticed that everywhere was completely trashed and deserted
As I came to a slow stop i realised i could hear light groans coming from... Well everywhere there was blood splashed across the ground giving the effect that somebody had spilled something.
