Taking a detour through Central City had seemed like a good idea at the time. But when the bus I was on decided to break down. I climbed from the bus, ignoring the driver who told me to stay aboard. I had just taken my feet off the last step of the bus when I heard screaming. As I stood on the street I saw a group of about ten people rush past me, moaning with what looked like blood splattered all over their faces and clothes.
More than a little shaken I watched as they chased a young couple, both holding hands who disappeared around a corner. Before I knew what was happening a young man, face and chest awash with blood raced towards me. At first I thought that maybe he was looking for help until he got closer and I saw the missing jaw, teeth bloodied as he snarled at me and I recoiled from the smell of his breath; like soured milk. I spun around, intending to climb back aboard the bus only to have the door slammed in my face just missing the tip of my nose.
"Hey! Let me in!" I shouted, pounded it with my fists before I gave the door a swift kick but the driver just shook his face pale. Looking past me his eyes widened and I whirled around just in time for the bloodied man to lunge at me. I screamed, dodging as he dived at me and he struck the door. Slamming into the glass hard enough to crack it he took a few seconds to stumble to his feet, teeth blared at me. I took a step back, nearly tripping on something lying on the street.
A quick glance down gave me a good view of a mutilated corpse, chunks of flesh missing from its arms and legs but that wasn't the worse thing As I stared at it I realized it was headless, blood pooling beneath it. I swallowed, feeling bile rise as I stumbled away from it.
Knowing the bus driver wouldn't let me on I chose the only option left; I ran not seeing a massive horde of bloodied and mutilated people stumbing towards the bus.
My first day in Los Perdidos and it's a warzone.
I ran as fast as I could away from the zombies just as I heard glass shatter, the zombies finally breaking into the bus and I tried not to listen as I heard sudden shrieking.
