Prologue:

AN:

Only made the message below in caps because I want people to notice this message. Sorry if it feels as if I am coming off as rude I really don't mean to.

I WANT TO MAKE SOMETHING VERY CLEAR. I HAVE NOT WATCHED THE WALKING DEAD AT ALL. THE TITLE MAY BE SIMILAR AS WELL AS THERE IS THE DEAD WALKING AROUND BUT THAT'S IT! I HAVE NOT WATCHED THE WALKING DEAD AND I DON'T PLAN TO.

This is an older story but I will be doing my best.

Hope you enjoy.

Mello.

To think that it all started this way.

With something so simple for me to end up in such a mess of horror.

But even as I look back on it now I am very glad that I had my friends to be there alongside me throughout the change I walked into.

In truth without them I would actually be dead now or worse.

Even as this horror continues to plague the world it is home and I won't let this take me down without a fight.

I can still remember how this all started…..

"Light!" My sister calls to me. "Come on!"

"I'm coming!" I call back down to her. I walk down the stairs and I turn towards the living room finding her sitting on the couch with my mother waiting. "Where's dad?" I ask.

"He'll be meeting us there." Mother assures me then she gets up from her seat. "Now come on let's go."

We head out since we are walking.

It's a nice day also that it's not far so instead of taking the car we decided to walk.

It's not like this family outing is going to be anything fancy. It's just a nice little family outing to a nice spot to have a nice lunch as well as to hang out as a family.

We arrive to the spot which is a really nice park with tons of nature but in a very pleasing way that it looks very nice. We walk towards the entrance that has two large trees at the entrance way.

Mother and Sayu wait closer to the entrance though I bet that father will be here soon.

He probably is running a little late in getting some really yummy food he gets from some place that he keeps a secret to make it even more worth it to a part of these family outings.

I glance around then I step a little more under the tree to watch for father looking past the tree to see if he can be seen coming from that direction. I look away as I now want to see if he's coming from that way.

It's a nice break L has given us today and tomorrow off from the Kira case.

Kira hasn't made any moves and the case has been stressing everyone out.

So it's really kind of L to give us a break.

"Don't worry I'm sure he is racing as fast as he legally can to get here." Mother says.

I smile. "Sorry it's just been awhile since we've been able to do this."

"Yes. It's wonderful that you were able to get some time off work to visit. Though I feel kind of bad that your father had a little thing he had to finish at the police station before he could join us." Mother says.

I give her an assuring smile. "Don't worry about it." I tell her. "But I'm glad that when he called to say he was heading home that he decided we should do this."

"Me too!" Sayu says happily making us turn to her as she kind of pokes out from behind mother.

We both can't help but smile at her slight foolish behaviour.

There is the screeching of tires but I don't find it strange since it happens.

But I was wrong to not really take notice.

Sister smiles and laughs then when she calms down she opens her eyes only for her eyes to widen. "LIGHT LOOK OUT!"

In the middle of her speaking there is a loud thud.

"Huh?" I turn around and I see that a very heavy truck had slammed into the tree possibly flown into the tree but when I looked it was too late.

Before I could even react the big tree fell on top of me.

The last thing I remember hearing as all I could see was black was a fading almost underwater sounding scream of what I think was my mother and sister calling my name.

After that everything was dark and silent.

But for me that was only the beginning of my new life that lay ahead of me.
