Chapter One: A sudden stop
Monday, October 14th 2009, Mercy hospital
It has been a week and two days since start of this whole nightmere began. Living in Baltimore I was witness to the infection firsthand. Just before the city was overun I packed up and left for the evac point in Fairfeild, big mistake. I go to the city and was instantly overcome with fear. The city was burning."Oh fuck". There was gunfire in small bursts and I could only see fire and thoses infected assholes.
I rushed back to my car as a group of them started at me."Shit shit shit shit shit" I yelled as I made my way back. I got back in and drove off to were I hoped there was, well I don'tknow what I was thinking at the moment except"FFFUUCK!" That and I had to get to that damn i was weveing arond some wercked cars left by there mostlikely dead owners I felt a large bump on the roof. "Hu, whatthe fuck was th-"
I got that far and then a clawed hand bursted from the riverside window. "Jesus CHRIST" I yelled as the blood drenched claw that had broken the window start to go and try to have a game of "Lets claw off Richards face". "Oh shit!" I was about to ram into a truck, mostlikely the things plan, I laughed at that idea. Then I came to my sences as the claw got a face.
It was now a very pretty face to say the least, the hood hid the eyes so I could only see his mouth. May I mention it was filled with razor sharp teeth and trying with all his might to chew on my face. I just barely missed an overturned burnning car when I remembered the pistol I had in my holster."AW shit", I yelled as he had bit me in the arm I had been useing to bat him off.
I Grabed for my pistol, Got it free aimed and it was gone. "What.. whered it?" I looked back to the road to see why it had left. To put I simply a van had impolitely parked itself in my way and lit iself on fire. All I an remember is me screaming and then a bang. There was a small time when there was nothing but darkness. No thoughts, feelings only darkness. Then slowly a light emgered from the daekness, and a voice called me.I figure I was dead so, waht ever iI went to the light.
I was more then a little shocked when I got to the light I hit my head on it, and the voice said," -watch out for the lamp." Ifell back into the bed I appairently veen laid in. as I focused I saw I was in the sub-basememt of a building possiablely a hospital. As soon as my sight returned to something of its normality I was a woman in a batered lab coat, a doctor? I was not sure. "Hel- Ahh shit." I was trying to lean up but it hurt like a bitch to and fell into the cot I was in.
"Ya, you might not want to try to move, you have a few broken ribs and a broken arm". She said this with a bit of alarm in her voice. That hit it, she has to be a dcotor. "H-hw did I get," she cut me off and walked over to me as I tried to sit up. "Lay down you need to rest you were in a crash and lucky to be alive, lay down'' I finnaly laid down and after a few minutes I asked her,"Were are we?" She seem to come out of a thought and staered at me."Hu? Oh your in the sub-bacement of the Fairfeild Police staion."
I stared at her in suprise, how had she gotten me here after I had gotten in that crash? How had I lived, an even better question. She seemed to notice my confution,"We were on a last minute run for any supplies and survivers before we went to the hospital for rescue when we came apon you car." She said this amater-of-factly."The others told me to leave you but I couldn't, we argued, but in the end we got you out, half dead,oh, sorry, and now here we are." She had knocked into my arm and apologized.
"Well thanks I was heading for the hospital, you know." I looked around the place, it was the bacement, for sure. Though it seemed homey, wth a couch and some tables and what seemed to be a ham radio."You were?"She said hids with more then a hint of sarcasim "Well welcome to the club, me and my group have been for five days after leaveing from Virgina." I looked over to her. "Were are they?" I looked around, it was only me and her."Oh there out upstairs. there watchng for the infected, we've been hold up in here for the last 2 days, after finding you."
"So," she said," what is your name?" I looked back up from my chest,I had been looking at the bandages."Hm, oh my..." I stoped. Why was I so trusting? Yes she and this misterius group of hers had saved my life, but still I wasn't takeing any chance's and asked her."Uh, why don't you tel me yours. She looked only mildly suprised."Ok,ok fine my name is Rebeca,"she sighed," was only trying to make converation." She shook her head in anger.
