Chapter 2


Wow, when I got out side, I thought the scene out here was worse then the scene within my house. You could here screams, sirens, moans and everything in between. I lived in an apartment on a bottom floor of a two story house and to get to my door, it was a little porch thing with a walk way on the side leading up into the side walk. I had my sword at hand I seen people running down the street with those things quickly behind.

I waited till I thought the coast was clear. I walked up and into the side walk, looking down the street. There was an over turned car down the street, but on the other side it was free. This was truly hell on Earth. I quickly jumbled with my keys, and jogged to my van, I looked down the street and seen a decent size group of them coming quickly for me. I let out a yelp as I opened the door and locked it. I fumbled with the keys to put it in the ignition, The things finally reached the van at this point, I was yelling at them (knowing that it won't work). I finally got the van started.

"This was a bad idea." I said to myself. "I never even drove before." I laughed myself, remembering that there is some sort of evil force right outside my driver side window. I started up the van and put it in drive. Doing this process, I hit the car in front of me, and honestly I didn't care. I backed up, and tried again. The things all fell when I drove off the second time. I sped off, into the sun rise.

I was driving along seeing people running, most I knew personally, but I knew in my head, I wouldn't be able to stop. Some more tears fell down my face as I ran over one of the things with my van, and blood spattering on the wind shield, and my car going over the corpse with a thud. But as I took a look out my window, I had to stop my car with a thud of the breaks, put it in neutral, grab the sword, and run out into a front yard that I just drove by. There stood one of my best friends from school standing there with a hand gun shooting at the things.

His name was Bennet, a black kid that I was once afraid of just because he was black, but turned out one of my best friends. I slashed down at a few corpses as he shot he started laughing when he seen my fighting a walking evil. I motioned towards me, as I ran back to the van, slashing a few more times at the things walking towards me. I got in the van and he ran into the passenger window while running to it. I began to laugh as he got in and I sped off. "Having fun?" I asked. "What in the ******** name is going on here?" he replied. "Hell if I had an answer to that I'd give you it." We began talking as I drove off to our main street, maybe it would have been safe there.
