Prologue
Hi. My name is Aldo. I'm 17 years old and I'm about to finish my Junior year at Niwot High, I barely turned 17 in April 11. Everyone thinks that the years passing by mean experiences to remember. Moments like your fist kiss, your first shaving or even your graduation and your fist car. Much of those moments are infinite joy that you'll remember forever... But not for me.
I was waiting like everyone to the school year to finish. I knew those 3 months of vacations were going to be sweet and I would sleep all day like I envisioned it. But also the last day of school was the day I would never forget... And I wish to forget... After that people just would forget and go on with their lives. But I would never forget it. That day was pure terror, but it revealed me that if I really believe... I can survive.
1. - The last day
Longmont Colorado May 27, 2004
It was a nice moment the first hours of the last day of school. I was sleeping with no interruptions and then playing videogames, also eating all my favorite foods like chicken of pizza, and why not Sushi? It was very pleasant. But from nowhere, a strange noise faded away all those marvelous things. I wondered what was that until I woke up. It was the alarm noise ringing on my ear. My mom was yelling at me to wake up. "Come on Aldo. Wake up. Time to go to school." I just sat on my bed as I rubbed my eyes asking which day was it. She told me "Today is last day of school" I turned to her "Last day of school?" I asked, "Yes. Last day of school" The look in my face changed from tired to excited look as I jumped off the bed and pushed my mom out of my room. "Come on mom! I gotta change my clothes!" Mom just went out as I looked in my closet for pants, T-Shirt and a Shirt. Also some clean underwear. After looking inside I found what I was looking for. I changed as fast as I could.
I went to the kitchen where my mom was making some breakfast. It was already 6:37 Am. Time for me to leave and ride my bus. I grabbed the flying toast as I rushed to the main door. "Aren't you forgetting something?" My mom told me. I thought about it. Backpack: Check, Clean underwear: Check, Clean clothes: Check, House keys: Check, Kiss mom: None. I walked by mom's side as I kissed her cheek. I turned and headed to the street.
The bus stop was the parking lot of the Kanemoto Park. The park was very close to my house, so I got there before the bus. I stopped and waited for the bus to come. During those minutes, Casey was already coming. Casey is a freshman from my school, we just met in the first block 5 class. She can pick a little on me, but she's just trying to pull the best out of me. She got to my sight. "Hey Aldo" I replied back "Hey Casey." She turned to me to ask me a question "So are you free this afternoon?" I looked at her with a confused face. "Maybe... I'll need to check. Why?" Her faced looked as ever as she spoke to me "I'm going to the mall today. Wanna go play Dance Dance Revolution?" We both liked Dance Dance Revolution. So we went to play together sometimes. "Sure. I'll check." Casey closed her eyes as she replied me back. "Well, if you can. Look. There comes the bus." The bus no. 25 was turning right on the street straight of us. It got to us and we all rode it. On the next stop Brandon hopped on. Brandon is some kinda a best friend. He's also a freshman. Niwot High is in Niwot. It is just like 10 minutes away from Longmont. On our way we were talking about the typical stuff we always talk about. "So. You did your move on the girl you like?" Brandon turned to me as he had this annoyed look on his face "Remember you told me that you'll help me on that?" I chuckled as I replied. "Remember that I told you that there are moments in life where you don't need my help and you gotta think fast." Brandon had a lot more annoyed face "But..." I replied back with a serious tone like answering back. "Look. Just do things like that like you say, by yourself. It can't be that hard to reveal you feelings to a girl..." Brandon lowered his head with a low tone. "Ask me how..." "Don't worry. I know you'll do it someday. Hey... What happened there?" Everyone turned to the side of the highway. A bunch of cops and paramedics were in the scene. I was able to see some blood on the dirt and the painful expression of the victim. Cops were blocking so I didn't determined the cause of the death.
We got to the school in time. We had like 10 minutes to go to the library. After those ten minutes the bell ringed. It was Day one. Everything went smoothly. Time passed and Block 4 arrived. It is U.S. History. Before the class we always talk about current events. All events were about Iraq and some gay couples having sex on top of a tree. But there was one that attracted me. Alex got this event that is related to the one of this morning. The information said that a family that lived on a ranch between Niwot and Longmont was brutally murdered. The killers seemed to be a group of about ten people. The parents and three-year-old child were apparently... eaten. Everyone in the class was shocked about this. But Mr. Howe relaxed us. Everyone was talking lowly about this case. I felt a strange feeling that something was going to happen.
It was time to leave school already and I got to my house. I left my backpack and told my mom that I was going to the mall. She told me to return before sunset. I got to the mall taking a Longmonster bus. I walked to Cyberstation, Namco's arcade place like Sega's dreamworld or Capcom's Nickelcity. Casey was waiting for me playing Dance Dance Revolution. She was dancing "Love Shine" Her favorite song. She already went from Light to Standard. I changed two dollars for eight tokens and walked to her. And said "Hey." Casey didn't turned, but she replied. "Hey Aldo. I'm almost done with the song." After three seconds, the final beats of the song tuned with the smashing of Casey's feet hitting the floor buttons. Silence broke into people roaring and clapping. It was the sound when you finish a song. She got a C overall. She's getting better. I stepped on the right and she moved to the left. We inserted eight coins. Four for each one and chose versus mode. We chose "Love Shine" again. After that, "CRASH" my favorite song. After five songs, the game was over. I turned to Casey and told her, "I'm going to the restroom. I won't take long." "Ok." Casey kept dancing.
The restrooms were close, so I got there fast. And made my business. After that I washed my hands. While I was washing them, I heard screams all over the place. I hurried and ran to the hall. There were people running to the emergency exit behind me. People had a fear look on their faces and some had bloodstains. Some were hurt like if parts of them were chewed. I took one step forward. And suddenly the office door on my right opened revealing a person running. "I don't wanna die here!" The sir screamed. He got past me. I looked at the running man as I wondered what was going on. Suddenly a person who was running got to my right. "Out of my way!" He pushed me inside the office. I crashed against the desk. I felt a rush impact on by back. I stood up slowly rubbing my back. I tried to open my eyes and I saw the worse. The door was closing. I ran to the door, but it close. "No!" I screamed. The door was locked. I was trapped inside. Suddenly there was a person who stopped running and started hitting the thick glass on the office. He was screaming, but the barrier muffled his screams. He was screaming like "Let me in!" or "Open the door!" I turned to him as I screamed. "I'm locked inside! I don't have the key!" Suddenly the person turned to his left looking at something. He had a shocked face. He was screaming again like "Get away from me!" or "Please help me!" a shadow grabbed him and started eating him, blood splattering on the glass. I just ran and hid under the desk. I close my eyes tightly thinking about that shadow. "Is he the killer? My god. I just wanna get out of here!"
Six hours passed on the ticking clock. The ticks seemed like heavy drums sounding each second. I stood up as I saw the rotting body of the guy. The killer ate him. I decided to get out of there. But the door was still locked. I searched over the desk flipping papers and moving some Mickey Mouse's figurines. After looking for something, I just slammed my hand against the desk. A sound like a box with a little metal object inside sounded under all the papers. I removed the paperwork and found a secret lid on the desk. I moved the lid revealing a Key. I took the key and used it on the doorknob. The door opened smoothly. I stepped out of the sterile office and looked at the massacre. "Did the killer do this?" I stepped forward looking at the rotten bodies. There was a bad smell in the air like a dead skunk, or two dead skunks. I rushed to the arcade to see if Casey was Ok. Everyone was dead. Some arcade machines were destroyed and others tumbled down. But there was no Casey around. Maybe she escaped. I rushed to the nearest exit, but a weak voice interrupted my haste. "Hey... Kid..." I turned to the source of the voice. It was Officer Anderson. He is an officer from the Longmont police department. I walk to him and asked him what happened. He told me, "Suddenly some strange guys appeared... Everyone was running after one of them ate a girl." I realized that maybe... "Wait! Did she have short blond hair?!?" "No..." It was good to know she wasn't Casey. "So what did do this?" He turned quickly over my back warning me of the hostile behind me. "Behind you..."
I turned, and my whole body froze after I saw what was behind me. He was walking like if he was drunk. But his look was the scarier of all. He didn't have an eye and the other one was white as the blood stained cotton shirt he was wearing. Chunks of what looked like rotten flesh hanging about to fall from his creepy face and some parts of his body. His smell was like shit and vomit combined creating a rotten smell. My instincts were screaming to me. "Stop! Stay away from me!" The creepy man didn't listened to me as he kept walking very slowly waving his heavy arms up about to grab me. "I said, Get away from me!" He didn't listened. When he was about to charge his whole body to hug me, I dodged him with a quick side jump to my right. His speed decreased until he turned to me and started waling again. "What do you want?!?" He wasn't listening any word I said. When I thought that he was going to get me, Officer Anderson shouted at me giving me something. "Kid!... Here!" Officer Anderson threw an object. It was black and has a hilt. I lifted the object from it. The shape, the trigger, and the cannon, It was a 9mm Semiautomatic handgun. "Use it!..." Officer Anderson told me to use the gun. "But what about if he's just drunk?!?" "He's already death..." "What?!?" I turned to the man. Was he dead? Or was it a bad joke? I had no time to think. I lifted the handgun and I squeezed the trigger. The top of the gun pushed me back as it fired from its screaming mouth. Bursts of fire shouting heavy words in the form of 9mm bullets. They flew as they hit the man. "What?!?" After 5 shots he was still standing. I changed my target to the legs and resumed my fire. Suddenly the third bullet met with the first one creating an explosion, which pulverized the man's knee. After he fell, he kept silence for a few seconds. Suddenly he started pulling his dead weight body with his weak arms. I still didn't believe that he was still alive. "The head... Shoot at the head..." Officer Anderson told me to do. I changed my target for the bald scrapped head. The raging bullet hit the head stopping the man. He was now dead.
"What are you?!?" I still wondered what he was. He looked human, but acted differently, Like a Zombie. Yes. Hard to believe, but he was a Zombie. "A Zombie? But how?" I heard the sounds of pain coming from Mr. Anderson's mouth. I rushed back to him. When I touched his wrist to check his pulse, I felt just flesh. Inactive flesh. Mr. Anderson was dead. "Officer down..." I knew that Mr. Anderson wanted me to survive this one giving me his handgun. "Right... I'll use this and find any survivors in town. Hope that Casey and Brandon are Ok..." I checked Mr. Anderson's belt packs for anything useful. There were 2 full clips of fifteen bullets each. The gun had three left after the fight with that Zombie. I was wearing pants with many pockets, so I just slipped the clips in the biggest one. I stood up heading to the nearest exit.
The outside was a mess, cars on fire and dead people from innocent people, to police officers. I checked my mental map of the area calculating the shortest route to the neighborhood. After checking the shortest one, I made the first step to the city of the dead. From Zombies and other creeps, to the freakiest monsters I ever have seen. The ultimate test of survival is about to begin.
