Prologue
Summary:
The Paradise Island is an island south of Florida and it was a place for tourist and retirements as well as thousands of local residents enjoying the sun, but within the layer of buildings, lays a dangerous secret.
The Company has a number of operational facilities in Paradise city, one of which was an invoice/billing center. This, of course, was just a cover for a secret genetics research lab. This lab was working on the ZV-69 project to create a virus that could modify human DNA to allow motor function beyond death. The purpose was to create a new combat drug to be sold to unscrupulous governments on the black market.
Apparently during Stage IV testing, the virus was accidentally released into the lab. Everyone in the lab was infected and, within a matter of an hour, had all transformed into flesh-eating zombies. These zombies quickly entered the accounting offices that served as the lab's front, attacking the workers therein and transforming many of them into
zombies as well. However, the accounting staff managed to call the police before they were all consumed by the zombies.
Expecting an incidence of work place violence or a mass shooting, the Paradise city police arrived in force with SWAT teams and immediately moved into the city to save whatever people they could. They had no idea of what they were getting into. Within minutes, most of the police that entered the city were dead or on their way to becoming zombies. From there, the zombie attack rippled throughout Paradise city like a sonic boom. By nightfall the entire city had been overrun, though there was still plenty of desperate struggles for survival going on. This is where the stories begins.
Research Center:
Researcher1: Setup complete. Ready to advance into next level.
Research2: All system check
Doctor 1: Ok, begin the process
( A cloud of gas was injected into a tank with a dead body and one of the security, the security was busy carries out the order and oblivious to what's happening to him, until its too late.)

Khan: I am what you call a zombie, don't worries you will soon become one too
Security1 : Die you monster! (He starts to shoot at the monster, knocking him back a few steps but Khan was oblivious to the pain.
Khan: It's useless, succumb to me, he open his ugly jaw and prepare for the final strike.
Security 1: Nooooo! (he continue shooting and one of the bullet went astray and hit one of the gas tanks in the side, and the tank blow up, breaking the glass around the tank, but not before the zombie bite on his head and snap it off, the body fall on to the ground
Khan: Ahh, I am free, for this I shall reward you greatly, he pick up the headless body and he take one of his claws and stab the body. The body start to mutate and within a minute the body had turn into one of the zombies looking just like him exactly.

Jimmy Patterson: What is that? I saw all the police officer getting massacred
Alpha II: We went into that lab, not having any idea what was going on in there. They should have warned us! But those SOBs at The Company were all hush-hush; they wouldn't tell us anything. So, we went in and got slaughtered. We'd empty entire clips from our MP-5's into those things, and all they'd do is twitch around a little. Now most of my old team has been turned into zombies. Just remember men, go for the headshot..., that's the only way to be sure."
Jimmy Patterson: Anyway, let's get the hell out of here. (The car speed off, the moan of the zombies becomes more distant until it's finally gone)

Public Announcement
Dear citizens,
As of this morning, a few dead bodies have appeared in our dear streets. Also, the streets seem to be unusually empty. But have nothing to fear, because the Police is beginning an investigation and will restore public order if needed. SWAT teams have been prepared and, even though they will surely not be needed, they are ready to repose public order, in case of any unlawfull conduct. We do advise all citizens to stay home until we issue an "all clear" statement, which should be very very shortly.
Your Mayor.

Armory:
Hank wasn't too liked in his squad, endlessly talking about patriotic duty and rebuking his mates for even slightest breach of regulations. His squad was given two days of free time and his pals had gone partying downtown, while Hank stayed at the base alone, studying for the theoretical part of Marine exams.
Meanwhile, in the front of the armory…
National Guard 5: "Hmmm, hey Harry, have you heard from 2nd Platoon since they went to check out the Main Library? Harry? Hey, Harry,
where did you go? Come on man, this is no time to go running off to take a leak, we got a riot on our hands here. Harry? Oh, there you are. Why didn't you answer me? And where's your rifle soldier? Hey, did you shower this morning? You
smell like roadkill. Why are you looking at me like that Harry? Hey, Harry, back up man, no need to get so close. Hey, stop
that! What are you doing Harr...AIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
When the alarms went off and loudspeakers announced "Biological Danger Code Red" the whole base was quite unprepared, most of the soldiers having fun in the city, the fresh recruits panicking... Hank was the only of his squad to report at the Armory
to find the 'code red danger' shambling towards the place in hordes The soldiers in the armory were few but had a heap of weapons at their disposal.
They defended fiercely against the living dead and fought for every room, felling heaps of zombies until finally being overwhelmed.
Sarge: We got to hold the line at all cost, regroup
National Guards: Yes Sir!
Hank: Sir we are under attack from every direction, the zombie is about to breach the door.
Sarge: Go to the main armory room, we are running low on ammo, I am the rest of the soldier will take care of the zombie
Hank: Yes sir ( He double timed to the armory room, quickly disappering from the view)
Sarge: Alright men, we will hold this line or die trying
National Guard2: ""Oh man, what the hell are those things. I mean, when I joined up they said 'Be All You Can Be'. Now I'm down to 'An Army of One'. Man, I didn't sign up for this. This sucks..., we're all gonna die. Game over, man!"
Sarge: You there shut up!
National Guards 3: Breaching is section III
Sarge: Hold the line, you follow me. ( He runs to the door only to watch in horror at a new from of zombie)
Secruity Zombie #1: So you are the ones who make it so hard for us to take the armory, you shall die!
Sarge: Fire at Will, Fire at Will! ( He aim his M-16 at the zombie, but the zombie just shrug off the lead and the next thing he knew, he saw a huge set of jaws and it all got dark.
National Guards2: Holy Shit, Sarge! ARHHHHHHHHHH
National Guards 3: God damn I don't want to die like this! DIEEEEEEEEEE
Main armory room:
Hank: Here's enough ammo to last us for a long time.. ( He heard the screams of his fellow soldier and the last clipping of trigger)
Damn we got overrun, (he runs to the door and saw that he was surrended by hundreds of zombies)
Hank made a final stand in the main armory room, all other soldiers were already fleeing in panic or dead, Hank decided to die fighting when he saw a crate of LAW anti-tank charges. Deciding that he has nothing to loose he fired charge after charge at the shambling horde and rushed forward. Burned and battered he emerged at the armory's courtyard, every where there was signs of fighting, hordes of zombies were walking everywhere and Hank thought he was the only survivor in the place. Hank made his way cross country through the forest and emerged on the outskirts of downtown to find a scene straight from hell.

'This is H.Q., come in unit bravo, what's the situation on the island so far?'
'...This is bravo leader, we see empty houses, signs of intense fighting, but no people.'
'Bravo leader, proceed downtown, look for survivors, check for any signs of life.'
...'Affirmative, bravo leader out'. ...
The special forces unit 'bravo' was sent from the mainland to asses the situation on Paradise Island before regular army would be sent. They were making their way trough an empty neighborhood, not knowing that those who died here turned into zombies and were hunting those few that were still human.
Bravo Leader: 'bravo leader here, a man is running in our direction screaming for help. There's a...a mob of mutilated people chasing him, they seem not to control themselves...'
Close ups of soldiers fending off zombies, one of them is being torn apart alive, only one of the soldiers and the scared civilian manage to escape. They are coming this way, Engage. Engage, Bravo Leader out
Paul Diego: 'Sergeant Paul Diego reporting, my entire unit has been obliterated. I've located a survivor, the people on the island... Crap! It's broken!'
Two men see that zombies are still behind them, slowly limping trough the street...
