Prologue

I remember when it all started.

I was in denial about the whole thing until our first refugee camp had been overrun with those things. I lost my family in that incident. My little siblings and my parents were inside the dining hall, which was the first area overrun. I was sleeping in our bunker, hoping to nap off a headache I had developed. I woke up to screaming coming from the dining hall and people telling me my family was gone and that we had to leave the camp. So I scattered around my family's bunker looking for supplies to put in my mom's old backpack. When I had gathered everything I needed, I slung the bag around my shoulders and did the same with my dad's bow and arrows. Once I had everything, I quickly ran out of the camp with a few of my old friends from before. That was three weeks after the turn.

By the first two months of the change, I had lost almost everyone. At the start, everyone teased me saying that I was going to be the first one dead. That I wouldn't be able to outrun or kill one of these monsters, but they were wrong. I wish they had been right, because then I wouldn't of had to kill them one they had changed. The only person I had left was my roommate from before the change, Sammi. Although, I didn't really have her considering we split up after our second refugee camp was overrun.

There were three things that I was absolutely sure about. First, I know that Sammi made it out of the camp safely, she had to of made it out. Second, I knew that I needed to find her. Finally, I need to find her before anything else does.

But for now, I was alone in this monster inflicted world.
