Survivor Stories: Annette Parker's torn diary

by DisclosedBarrel

There was a little competition to write a diary for DF2 and here is my one, the one that also wasn't accepted. F*ck it, you can have it! :) Captain Annette Parker was a good officer up until the N4 outbreak ravaged Fairview and infected the population. In what started as a good officer trying to help the civilians ended with a woman with nothing to lose and a new, darker crusade.

This is Captain Annette Parker of the Fairview Police Department.

Fairview's last line of defense against the infected horde at the local bank has failed. Masses of infected washed over the High Street. The police department has been getting reports of some evacuations taking place. It must be the military. I have learned a few things from my predecessor and decided he was right.

This is a significant catastrophe for us all, but judging the current state of the infection, I admit no one can risk it getting out of the city. Not me or the American government. It must NEVER leave Fairview. If I have to sacrifice a city to save a country, a planet even then so be it. Kill thousands to save millions…

I wouldn't know where to start, just thinking about it is borderline insane! Am I genuinely thinking about sabotaging my city's survival to contain the virus? If it goes airborne, the country would be at risk. Where or when would it end? The virus can't escape. I'll find a way to sterilize everything!

Please forgive me.
