Hey guys! This is my first story and I am very excited to share it with you! Seeing as this is my first story/chapter, authors notes will be short. Enjoy!

Chapter 1

Days like this used to be my favorite kind of day. Crisp morning air, sun peeking through the small wispy clouds, lush green grass. Should be beautiful. But how can anything be beautiful when the infection has spread to nearly every human being on earth?

Brain dead cannibals inhabit every street, building, corner, forest that was ever beautiful. People who I once knew show no recognition when they see me. They know only craving for my flesh. I've seen friends and family turn right before my eyes. A bite or scratch from the cannibals will do that to a person.

Its a wonder how I survived. Just me and my dog. There is no 'safe', only safer. No matter how much I wish I could die, I remember that the world doesn't need another cannibal, and I keep on going. I keep on running.
