Reno is also a pretty busy place and there are days when it's slow. So when the flow of people coming to the casinos slowed down, we all thought it was just coming to our slow days because that's always how it ends up to be. But when one person goes crazy and attacks a cocktail waitress, people are bound to freak and start thinking insane things. Everyone gets sick, it's a natural thing...

Don't Talk To Anyone | BOOK 2
(Sequel to Don't Talk To Strangers) It's been a couple months since the zombies had vanished. No more zombies. No more killings. And no more bad people. So they thought... Life is good, until something seems- out of place. Maybe it's a change in the weather or thickness of the air. Or it could be the electronic buzzing noise keeping them awake at night. The gang is suspicious, but nothing peaks their interests until one of them comes home infected. It's only a matter of time until the infection spreads around the rest of their body. It's a race against the clock to help them survive. Because the friends can't part with their own. They're family. And losing another person amongst the world is too much to handle. But if adding in revengeful ex-friends, hot summers, babies AND more zombies to the mix is what it takes to finally make these kids give up, congratulations. You got your wish. Not everyone is as strong as they want to be. Will they make it or break it?Complete

While on the job one morning, he confronts horrors he'd never think was possible. His aspirations of future careers and school come to a screeching halt as he's stuck finding his way back to his home, and his family. Isaiah's journey is filled with heartbreak and sadness as he experiences so much more than one can handle. Will he be able to navigate his way home, or will he succumb to the new world he has found himself in? *** The government covered it up as just another case of the bird flu, mad cow disease, you name it. No one suspected foul play, until cases skyrocketed just hours after the government announced a new strain of the bird flu. Rumors spread of people killing each other in incredibly gruesome ways, but society being as dumb as we are, dismissed it all. Dismissed it all until time ran out to prepare. I was one who definitely did not prepare. My name is Isaiah Benning, and I am a dumbass.
