The site of the undead....Zombiefy

     So there I sat, puffing on a cigarette, reminiscing on the series of tragedies that befell me and my family and everyone else in this forsaken world. Nobody knows what quite happened. Some said that the very gates of Hell had opened and it's ghoulish and satanic plagues swept across the world. Others claim the governments are the ones to blame. They say it was due to the biological weapons testing, and somehow a virus got out and caused people to turn into flesh eating zombies. I'm sitting here alone and in the dark, but not because I choose, because the power has been out for about a month now. Even if I did have a ligh source, I couldn't use it; those "things" are attracted to it. I've been held up in my basement for about three weeks with nothing but my trusty shotgun and my baby, Donna. In case you were wondering, Donna is my custom-made 9mm. Completely silver. It ran me up $1000 but it's worth every penny. I was never too fond of guns, and never a friend of violence. But ever since all the shit hit the fan, violence and guns have been a way of life. Zombies, ghouls, or "things", whatever you wish to call them, many have met their demise at the tip of my mossberg and the precision of Donna. My mind shudders at the thought of venturing up into the unknown plagued world. My mind races though a crowd of emotions as I make the decison to venture to the surface, or just take the easy way out and kiss Donna and turn this basement into my eternal resting place. It felt as though it was the hardest decison I've ever made. But the decision I made was to surface at daybreak. I don't know if I made the right decision or not but I feel as though it is better than to rot and be forgotten in this basement. As daybreak came, it brought with it a ray of orange sunlight. I gathered some water and as much ammo as I could carry. Then it was time. Mixed emotions of fear and excitement raced through my body. I felt as though I was in a horror film. I unbarricaded the door and braced myself fo whatever lies beyond that door. I made sure the gun was loaded and cocked. I reached for he door hesitently and grasped the knob. As I gradually opened he door and peaked out beyond, and what I saw, I am sure I couldn't have prepared to see, a grotesue landscape, in utter chaos. I took one step into the unknown world and set out on my horrific journey, no knowing what awaits me.
