The Notebook Of The Living Dead

In a world where the dead walk, what does it mean to be alive?

Y/n was 22. Ziggy was 13.
They grew up in Ouzinkie, Alaska-a quiet coastal village with a population under 100 and winters that could swallow sound. Silence was normal. Peaceful, even. But when the world ended, the silence became something else entirely.
Empty. Dangerous. Final.

When the dead began to rise and their town fell to rot and shadows, the sisters had no choice but to leave. Armed with what little they could carry and the pages of a notebook Y/n kept close, they began a long, uncertain journey south-searching for warmth, for people, for something.

The road stretched endlessly beneath them. Days passed-ten or more, though they'd stopped counting. The heat of the South was suffocating, and the sisters, used to snow and silence, found themselves constantly out of place and on edge. Every stop brought risk. Every sound, a threat.

If this doesn't make sense in the first and second chapter, it will in the third and even more in the fourth!
