Day 1 (Part 1), The Day It Happened
Point of view: Alexander
I was walking through the street, suddenly the sky darkened. I look around, people start collapsing then I suddenly heard groaning, I turn around and se- Beep, Beep, Beep.
"Ughhhh" I groan.
I felt like crap, gosh I knew I shouldn't have stayed up so late, but the case I was in charge of was losing, and damn I needed to win. It was the biggest case of the year, the biggest mass murder of the century was happening, and they think they found the murderer. I was on the victims side, and I was sure this would be an easy case so I took the case before actually reading the victim's and murderer's profile, god am I stupid. Turns out the murderer is Thomas Jefferson, one of the richest men on Earth, and a person that had connections with people in France who were VERY powerful even over here. God I wish I could turn back time and force this job onto someone else, but I mean it's not like I can change the past. Sometimes I wish I could quit, but then there are other times I'm grateful I chose this job out of the many out there.
I start pulling myself out of bed, but as soon as I feel the cold air in my room I want to curl up in the blankets on my bed. But I mentally kick myself out and start getting ready for today.
As soon as I'm dressed I look at the clock and realize it's already 7:30, and I needed to be at work in 30 minutes. The trip to work is 25 minutes if the trains' aren't delayed and the next train leaves in 5 minutes, so I rush outside and start running towards the subway. Suddenly the sky starts darkening, I look up and see an eclipse. I don't remember the news saying there would be an eclipse, well that was until I saw people dropping left and right, then suddenly my vision went dark.
Other than that I don't remember what happened but when I woke up I heard this raspy kind of groaning, then suddenly it started becoming a violent sort of roaring. So, out of pure curiosity I turn around and see some monster walking, well if you could call it walking to begin with. One leg was missing and the one leg was twisted, and twisted in a way no human leg should be twisted. So subconsciously I decided to call "it" a zombie mostly because it had sickly green skin like a zombie in those movies. So when I see it "walking" towards me I start running away, trying to make a plan of what to do, then I see one of those travel buses, people buy when they have a team of people that need to be somewhere faraway. So I remembered I probably would need to travel far, so I start running towards it.
When I look inside I see the bus driver is still knocked out from the eclipse, so I decide to start prying the door open. When I opened the door I pushed the bus driver out of the way, ending up with him outside of the bus. Still panicking, I'm trying to make a quick decision whether or not to try and lift the bus driver into the bus while wasting precious time, or close the bus doors and leave the bus driver on the concrete for the zombie that was following me.
While fighting whether or not to leave him behind I hear groaning coming from the back and turn around. The groaning doesn't sound like before, where the groaning was raspy, but instead the groaning sounded sort of tired so I decided that the groaning thing was human. When I think whether or not 1 life over 2 maybe even more lifes are at risk I close the doors and start taking off.
When I look in the side mirrors I see the bus driver being torn apart by the zombie that was following me, and another zombie that seemed to join my zombie, in tearing the bus driver apart. I almost wanted to gag at the sight of the blood and guts on the ground. I felt a sudden weight on my chest, god now I really wish I could turn back time.
But just within 30 minutes into the drive I had to stop when someone jumped in front of the bus. The figure was kind of blurry but suddenly the figure started to form and I could only panic when I realized who it was. All I could say at that moment was "That mother fudger."
I try to update between Friday-Sunday sometimes I might Update on a normal week, sorry if I'm not very consistent.
