Apocalypse Z

The start of the end

I'd come so far, through so much shit, and yet lost so many friends, best not to remember, should forget, why am I even thinking about this now? Their out there, those bastards that ruined my life. I aimed down my scope on my Machine gun that Kyle had given me, and watched as the first shuffling zombie staggered round the corner, I was about to pull the trigger when a shot was fired, Kenzie had found a sniper rifle and was on the penthouse floor of the skyscraper, then I heard a rumbling noise, It came from the street below, then came the screams, of howlers or kids I didn't know. Then I got the answer, it was both, I saw about 200 kids of all ages being slaughtered, ripped in half, eaten alive, guts, innards, I started to pick off I few of the howlers but man they could take shots like a sandbag, they just wouldn't go down at this range with an Assault rifle, "Hey, you guys got anything bigger?", one of Kyle's guys brought over an LSAT, (light machine gun, (huge gun fully automatic, has about 200 rounds per magazine, and the bullets are as big as a marker pen)). "Thanks, this is more like it", while I had been setting up my gun, I had missed that almost every kid that had been chased by the howlers, had been killed the streets were literally like a bloody Venice, apparently according to Kellie, only 6 people made it and they only had a baseball bat and a butter knife between them all, but they were big, so they joined us as we continued the fight against the never ending undead nightmare that lay before us, the howlers had started to climb the buildings, and now the hundreds of hordes of the zombies had entered the street, the looked like they all knew one thing, we were food, they were hungry. They hit the building below and one of the new people dropped some mines and grenades, and all of a sudden kyle screamed, "nooooo" but it was too late, the 13 year old guy, who no one knew had just killed off almost half the horde, but had in the process destroyed the base of the building that we were in, I felt a huge explosion beneath my feet, and I felt the skyscraper sway, wobble and lean, towards the other buildings, I dropped my LSAT, ran across to the side that wouldn't touch the ground, broke the window, and held onto the side of the building while it was falling, it went much slower than I would have imagined, I saw kyle and Kenzie doing the Same thing I was, and looked up and saw everyone else trying to aswell, I saw two of the new guys slip and fall too there graves, and then Kellie said, "help me down, please Fraser", so I grabbed her hand and she jumped down, by this time the building was on a diagonal slant, and was about to hit the hotel and buildings on the other side of the street. She grabbed the ledge and hung on to it, but when the skyscraper hit the hotel, she let go instantly and slide too fast and turned into a smear of blood on the side of the sky scraper. I was paralyzed, my good friend, Kellie, was dead, and so were many of my other ones, was this how it ended? The building was still sliding downwards, then it hit the ground with an almighty explosion, everything looked like a dusty cloud, then when the dust settled I got up and found that everyone but cam me Kyle and one of his guys, the rest had disappeared, or died. We decided to make a run towards the aiport, and try to find a plane to escape with, (why hadn't we thought of this before?) we started to run along the downed skyscraper towards the airport, then out of nowhere a group of howlers attacked Kyle's friend, "James!!!! Noooo!" He yelled, but it was no use, the howlers had mauled him and ripped him to bits by the time Kyle had even raised his axe for a swing. He chopped ones head clean off, and swung into another from the side, it screamed in a high pitched howl of pain, Kyle grinned and slammed into it again with the axe this time into its chest, it made a large crunch noise, and then it fell, spilling blood everywhere, the last howler I shot in the head and then again in the chest just Incase, "Kyle we gotta go, now!" More zombies were finding there way over the skyscraper, and were shambling towards us, "you go, I'll stay and fight, Just go!" I didn't argue he's seen everyone die now, all that he's known is gone. Disappeared, vanished. Me and cam carried on, toward the airport, it was close now, we vaulted the fence, ran through the swamp, past the military helicopter, back onto the Tarmac, and over towards hangar 3 we broke in, and found the howler cage was destroyed, we now knew why so many had died today, and also, why Justine and others were zombies walking around outside, we also knew that in the last hangar, No.4, there was a plane that worked, a military plane, I only just realised, that one of us would leave, because it could only fit one person, and one person had to drive it onto the Tarmac with a car, I told cam this, and he reluctantly said he could fly a plane, his dad taught him when he was 12. So it was me this time, me who was staying behind, fighting off the undead, the friends turned foe, my last stand. I drove cam onto the Tarmac, watched as he started his planes ignition, checked the flaps, accelerated, and lifted off, I had told him something before he left, to which he replied,"really? Ok, I guess If rather be a human than one of them, and rather go out my way than theirs". Cam turned around to see a flood of the undead flowing towards me, he flicked a switch, and pulled a trigger, and a little metal thing shiny and long dropped, then he flew away towards the sea, the thing I had asked him, my final request, was to let me go in a burst of fire... Little did I know that he hadn't aimed at me, but what was behind me. I turned only to blasted of my feet by an explosion half of the city would have heard. I saw a flash of light, and fire and smoke, when the smoke cleared, I stood up, and looked at the flames and burnt bodies, some of those were bound to be my friends, in one of there hand I saw Kyle's axe, he must have fought to the last swing, bravest guy I knew, and then I heard a growl from behind me, and I felt a sudden lurch of pain in my neck which faded into a silent ease, I saw everything turned black, and I fell...
