Disclaimer - I don't own Resident Evil.
I was inspired by reading Hyperactive Hamster or Doom's 'Resident Evil: Project Lucifer'. I highly recommend reading it!
It's supposed to be like a kind narration of the person infected, what it's like in the process and what it's like to be a zombie.
This is the first story I've ever written myself, so I hope you enjoy!
Infection
It only takes one bite,
One peck,
Sometimes only even a scratch
To get this dreadful disease.
Slowly,
Slowly and painfully it kills you.
Once it starts,
You have an insatiable hunger,
It slowly drives you mad
Because nothing you do
Makes it go away.
Then the itching starts.
It's always worst at the infection,
Slowly growing,
Spreading…
It adds to the madness,
Wearing you down
While your mind
Dwindles away.
Your body tingles,
Your mind numb.
All that's left is the hunger and pain.
Wanting release
From this unending torment.
You finally give in.
The madness,
It feels so good
To let go…
But the worst part
Is that the hunger
Never goes away,
And it's the guilt of
Attacking,
Killing,
Tearing,
Ripping,
Devouring..
The sweet flesh
Of your friends
And family
As silent tears
Roll down your cheeks,
While you try
To sate your hunger
On the next
Prey you
Can manage to catch,
As the last of
Your humanity,
Slips away.
Darkness
It's the only
Thing you have
To console
Your tormented soul,
The only constant
In your life,
Even when the
Hunger leaves.
Darkness,
It's all that's left now.
