You scream.

You wake up from the dream.


You look around.You think about that dream for a moment and try to remember it clearly.You shake your head and laugh at yourself. You hear a bang from downstairs and remember the zombies are real. You quickly get up and walk down stairs to investigate.You find nothing and head back upstairs. You sit on the bed and check your phone. You see a missed call from a number you don't recognize and two unread messages.You listen to the messages. The first message is from a friend of yours called Mark. You remember him, he was always the more outgoing one of your group. The message starts off with him telling you that he is trapped in the stadium with a few others and can't get out. You listen to the rest in wonder. He goes on to say that the stadium is filled with zombies and they all can't get out.

You listen to the next message. It's from a friend called Ben. You remember him too, he was always the most timid one of your group. You listen to what he says. He goes on to say that the stadium is filled with zombies and they all can't get out.You start getting angry. You wonder why you are angry. You think back to the dream and remember that the man in black told you that you would die here.You try to calm yourself down. You calm down and go help Mark and Ben. You walk over to the door and look out into the stadium. You see a few shamblers wandering around but no zombies. You wonder what a shambler is. You find out as you take the first step out of the stadium. You feel a piercing pain in your foot and you look down to see a shambler grabbing your foot.  "H-hey!" you yell. You kick the shambler away and it falls down dead.You look around and start heading over to where Ben and Mark are trapped.

You walk to your friends. You see them both and start to head over to them.As you do so, you hear a crack and the ground under you starts shaking. You look at the ground. You see a small hole in the ground and something is coming out of it.You scream and start running away but it is too late. The creature has already grabbed you.



You mumble slightly "what the fuck" as you are eaten alive.




You aren't chewed but instead swallowed whole. You feel your organs being torn apart as the creature eats you alive.Your stomach is burst and you are let out of the stadium with your entrails hanging out. You become a zombie.You stumble around and try to eat some humans but you can't find any. You end up eating a couple of shamblers instead and feel full after doing so.

You try to become human again. You don't know why you did it but you think it's some sort of last ditch attempt to avoid death. You concentrate and the effects are almost immediate. You feel pain in your stomach and feel like you are about to pass out. You think you can feel your organs again when the pain stops and you look down. You can see your organs clearly and they don't look too bad. You think that you might be able to fix yourself.  You walk around for a few hours to see if the effects wear off but they don't, you're going to be a human/zombie for as long as you live.

You try to help your friends even though you will have to control cravings. You spend the next few days eating humans and shamblers to keep yourself going but it's not as much fun anymore. You kill some animals instead.You wander the streets at night looking for any food. You find a few normal humans but they are too well protected now so you kill and eat two shamblers instead. You think about how you used to eat humans when you were a ghoul and how you never thought you'd eat them again.






You wake up from the dream.You wake up in a cold sweat and look around you. You notice the moon is out and that's when you remember your crazy dream. You think back to what you had dreamt. You were eating humans in the stadium and looking up to see the man in black watching you. You try and find out who the man in black is.You remember that you had a dream but you don't remember what it was about. You try and remember the dream.You wake up in the morning and remember what the dream was about, you remember that it was a man in black.
