Chapter 1-Nightmare

I set there starring out the window of the bright blue van me and my 3 friends we're driving in. We had been gone from home for a while, gone on a business trip all 4 of us create videogames for entertainment and had been gone for a meeting.

My friend James was at the wheel he had his black jacket on with his short brown hair still swooped over to the side like he always had it. Nick set in the passengers seat infront of me, he had his shoulder lenght crisp black hair and glass's he wore his grey jacket and the necklace he always wore, it was a coin with a Japaness symbol on it. Gil set beside me his had tan skin because of his family line, he had his black hair still down all in his face as always.

I set slump back in my chair thinking I noticed we haden't seen another car on the road for over an hour it was late but I remembered this road being busy 24-7, I guess my memory of this place is worse then I thought.

"how much longer until we arrive?" I asked, "don't remember, it'll probally just be another hour before we make it." Nick replied looking back at me from his seat. I had no idea why but I had a really bad felling, I had no idea what was about to happen, little did we all know that our little visit to our hometown would turn into...a nightmare.

We drove for another hour. "alright we're here." James shouted happily from the drivers seat. "about time, don't think our families will like us walking in at midnight." Gil replied. "hey we can't help how long it takes us to get here they'll just have to deal with it." Nick laughed. "hey have you guys noticed that there hasen't been a car on the road for about 3 hours know." I replied. "Cody, it's Midnight no one is going to be on the road." Nick replied, "what?" Gil asked looking surprized, "people are on the road all the time." Gil responded. It was at that moment that the car shock and everything went black.

I tossed and turned all I saw was Black but I could fell people grabbing my arms and being pulled around. I had no idea what was going on, it was all black and nothing made sense. At that moments I leaped up "get away from me!" I shouted, I looked around as my vision came back. I was at my grandmothers house, the red carpet stretched across the room I was on the blue cotton couch. the yellow chair and the matching furniture set around the room, everything seemed undisturbed.

I looked around. "Nick, Gil, James!" I called but no one replied. "I could barely see the outside threw the big window on the left of the room. I could just look threw the crack inbetween the two curtains. I could see that it was very foggy, like the morening after it had poored all night.

I walked around the house in the kitchen the bedrooms, nothing the house was in the shape of an O you could walk from the living room to the kitchen and to the extra room on your right, inbetween the kitchen and living room was the hallway that lead to the bathroom and the bedrooms. the front door was in the living room.

"This is strange?" I thought puzzled, what happened. "I was in the car with my friends, then blank." I walked to the door. "I need to know what is going on." I said to myself as I openned the door and walked out.

I looked as my yard stretched out infront of me the grass green and wet from the dew. The cars we're both gone I looked at the gravel road that stretched down the road to a curve that was covered with bushes the ditch on my left by the field where water flowed down by the road and the forest to my right strangly dark and eery.

I looked to my left and saw nothing except more yard and fog right above the grass, then I looked to my right and saw something that no man should ever see! I saw 2 dead bodies on the porch, one laying across the porch on his back blood gushing from an open wound on his stomach. The other...was over top of him leaning down, it's teeth dug into the wound ripping flash from the bones I would have thrown up if I wasen't in shock.

It looked up at me it's eye's rolled back in it's head. I couldn't help but to scream as it stood up strait much taller then I was, it stretched it's arms out for me. I ran threw my door and slammed it shut locking it behind me and I backed up still in shock from the sight I had seen. I stepped on a shard of broken glass. I couldn't think of the pain but I turned to see the padio door shattered and a handgun sitting on the table outside on the backporched I ran for it and lifted it up.

I felt of it, full, 12 bullets. Thats when I heard the sound I had been dreading. Bang, Bang! Thats thing outside, wanted in, it wanted blood. I pointed my handgun towards the front door I couldn't hold my hand still. The banging on the door was all to real, every dought of this being a dream left me, this was real. Thats when it busted the door open it had it's arms stretched out reaching for me. I fired a bullet into it's head, no effect. I continued and after 4 bullets it laid dead on the floor, atleast I hope it was dead.

I dropped to the floor and held my forhead, that was the scariest thing I had ever been threw, a Zombie layed infront of me, "what happened here? and where was my friends and family?" I asked myself, afraid of what the answers might be.

I knew I couldn't stay there so I lefted threw the back door to avoid having to walk over the rotting corpse that layed infront of my front door. I walked outside into the foggy backyard I made my way down the road to my dad's house that wasen't even a mile away. luckly I had no encounters of the undead as I made my way to my home. I walked into the front door my gun pointing infront of me.

I looked around my kitchen the table infront of me and the doorway to the living room I walked threw it to the living room everything left untouched. The big screen TV on my right, the computer on my far left with the line of windows going down the wall the chair inbetween me and the computer with the couch on the far end of the room. I walked around "Dad?" I shouted, no awnser. "Nick, James, Gil.?" I shouted but still no reply. Then the phone rang sending a chill up my spine. I walked to it, thinking on wheather or not I should pick up and after a few seconds I picked it up. "h-hello?" I asked. "hello, C." the voice on the other end replied. "c-c?" I asked, what did he mean by c. "who is this?" I asked. "just call me, E." the voice replied. "E? why E?" I asked.

"Thats all you need to know right know, what is your name?" E asked. "why do you want to know?" I asked him, "I need to know it is crucial." he replied. "Cody, why?" I asked. "I'll tell you later right know it is just important you find your way out of here, you have to go before he finds you." E stated. "who's he?" I asked, but E hung the phone up.

Who was E, what the heck was going on here? so many questions and so many things I needed to know but right know I just needed to know one thing, where my friends are.

I walked outside and my throat sunk and I dropped my handgun. Zombies, everywhere all over the front yard arms stretched out for me. Then I got the worst headache I had ever had grabbing it I fell over I couldn't move for the pain I could only watch as the undead creep slowly towards me, I screamed as they got close moaning.

Then a huge armored truck came around the curve with it's lights on tearing threw the Zombie hord and over to me, a dark skinned man with a army uniform jumped out of it he had curly black hair and a camo cap on. "Rex, we got a live one here." he shouted and a man in camo holding a sniper rifle came out of the passenger side he had short red hair and shot his sniper rifle at nearby Zombie's.

"Knight get him in the car, we have to get out of here!" Rex shouted. "right." Knight replied then he turned back to me my vision started going fuzzy again. "don't worry your alright." I heard Knight say before everything went black again.
