Curtains by the window danced with the flow of wind. The prints of magenta-coloured roses on baby pink background resonated with the evening glow of the setting sun surrounded by light red clouds. What a scenic evening. Such a romantic weather to be at the beaches. But none of that mattered now. The room had light blue walls with clean polished equipments on the marble floor. Even amidst such splashes of colours, the canvas of my life was now the same shade as the robe I was wearing and the bedsheet I laid on. White. Blank to be precise. The room had been empty since I woke up but it didn't make any difference. I was the same inside. Empty and broken. Though there was one thing that I wanted. So very badly. Revenge. For the death of my mother. For the death of my father. I wanted revenge against the murderers for my loss. For putting me through such misery. For such devastation of me!

"I'm bit, Sam! I'll die soon. I don't want you to die. You have to... survive... you must survive. Don't cry. Shoot me once I ...die...I know it's a lot to ask and I'm being selfish, putting you in all this. But please, Sam! I don't wanna be one of them! I don't wanna be one of the geeks! Please Sam-" He gritted through the obvious immense pain and just like that, the next second, he lie fainted on the ground. Not using the word 'died' because he'd wake up in half an hour or so, with no memory of us whatsoever, a member of the undead horde. I raise my gun up to his head through my tear-filled blurred vision. I lost another one... Samantha is not your typical 17-year-old, she is set on becoming an adult and a national sports player.

All the earth is torn asunder. There used to be grass, and the sun used to be golden. Children played outside, climbing trees with smiles on their faces and grass stains on their knees. People worried about a million things that would soon be irrelevant, continuing without a clue of the disaster to come. Centuries later, what little is left of humanity survives in a society constructed beneath the surface of a glass dome, the world outside converted to little more than a desert wasteland. Survival is a routine rather than an effort, and all rules are surpassed by only one: if you want to survive, you never leave the dome. There's nothing alive out there. The radiation that soaks the earth makes sure of that. Until one day, someone finds a bloody, dust-covered handprint on the outside of the glass. Nothing will ever be the same again.
