This is where Rebecca's true nightmare starts.

Rebecca's parachute got stuck in the trees and she just hung there, looking down at the white ground. (The parachute string HAD to get caught around my leg, didn't it?) She grabbed the strings with her hands and pulled herself upright, and then she tried to pull her leg out of this position, but to no avail.

(Damn. I didn't bring my knife…) the thirty three year-old thought as she tried to pull her leg out again. (Might have to use my gun… Where is it? I thought it was in my holster?) Rebecca searched her holster multiple times, the feeling of sleep getting to her head. Realizing that she didn't have it anymore, she looked down at the ground. She looked directly below her, and saw her gun. She slowly crouched down and then, as slow as she could, flipped herself back upside down, having just enough reach to grab the gun. Then…

"Uuagh…" Rebecca heard an all too familiar moan. The strings spun her around on their own, and then she saw what she never wanted to see again. The living dead.

"What the?!" She said a little too loudly. The zombie turned towards her and started walking to her.

(I NEED to get off of this thing!) She struggled a little harder as she was upside down. She kept looking back and forth between the zombie and the strings. (…Fine. Looks like I'll have to handle this upside down.) She aimed her gun at his head pressed the trigger…

…To only find out that she was out of bullets.

(Oh no! This is bad!) She pulled herself upright again, trying to get as far away from the zombie as possible. (What am I gonna do…?) Rebecca looked to her left and saw a branch. She grabbed it with one hand and tried to pull herself from the strings. (Not working. But…) She hauled her leg attached to the strings to the branch, the heel of her foot pointing downwards. Then, she scraped her foot against the branch, making the strings loosen up. Later rather than sooner, her foot became loose, and she fell on top of the zombie. She got up quickly and kicked its head in. Smashing the brain and 'killing' it.

"Damn it… Damn it!" She grunted. She check her personage, lost everything except her handgun, but even then, she lost all of her bullets too.

Rebecca gripped her gun as she looked around the crash site. (Why can't I remember losing my stuff? Ugh, my head hurts just thinking about it. I should just focus on finding some bullets to defend myself. The clip is still here, but there aren't any bullets in them… That a little odd.) She decided to walk through the cold night and the snowy forest. Without a coat, it felt like a freezing hell. Luckily, she found a shack in the woods.

"…It's my best bet." Rebecca knocked on the door, but nobody answered. She grabbed the doorknob, and twisted it, slowly opening the door. "Hello?" She yelled, to see if anybody was here. (Nobody's home. Hm…) the inside only had a desk with one drawer, a closet right behind it, and a blanket next to the desk.

"That blanket must've been where the guy who stayed here slept… Poor guy." Rebecca looked at the desk, nothing on top. So she immediately went for the drawer, and found a small book, titled: Diary. "…What else have I got to lose?" She opened the book and began reading.

I found this place and this book here. It's nice and kind of cozy. Although, I do have to walk quite a distance to get some water…

January 15th 2013

I heard a roar earlier, so I'm deciding to hide here for the rest of the day. At least I have some leftover water from yesterday that I haven't used for anything.

January 16th 2013

I found out what that roar was yesterday. It was a huge beast! It was like a dog and a tiger had a baby! I saw it outside the window right next to the house. Hopefully it'll ignor

(…It stops there…?) Rebecca checked the rest of the pages, and found nothing. And then something caught Rebecca's ear. It sounded a little like…

"Ugh…" Rebecca shivered in fear. Then a zombie busted through the closet doors and grabbed Rebecca from behind. She struggled to get him off before he bit her, but he seemed a lot stronger than a usual zombie, so she couldn't escape. It looked like the end.

"Get off her!" Jerico broke the door down and shot the zombie with his handgun. The zombie soon slipped off Rebecca's body.

"Th-Thanks Jerico." Rebecca rubbed the slime off her arms.

"…Do you know what these things are?" He asked.

"Yeah. I've dealt with zombies before, but they were never this strong." Rebecca looked at Jerico's handgun. "Hey… Do you mind if I take a few of your bullets?"

"…No. I brought a little too many anyways." Jerico gave her a clip, to which Rebecca quickly reloaded her gun.

"Thanks. It seemed like that sighting was true. But why are they here?" She discussed.

"Isn't that what we came here to do?" Jerico turned towards the door. "We came to figure out the source and then we need to destroy it. It's as simple as that." Then, he stepped out the door.

"Wait up!" Rebecca ran up to Jerico. "We should stick together. Just in case."

"…" Jerico thought for a second. "Just don't get in my way."

(…Asshole.)
