This story is from Bernice! Bernice is a green eyed and was a taxi driver on the late shift in New York City! She met her first Zombie while driving a customer to his home…

Hey this is Bernice,

I picked up my last customer for the evening and he was a tall good looking man, but he had a headache and was holding his head and making a whimpering sound! I made sure that the bullet proof divider was secured between us, because you never know what kinda drugs people are on and in New York they are always on a drug of some type, just to survive…

As we neared his stop, he started to moan real loud and then he smashed his head maybe twenty times as hard as he could against the divider, why he even cracked the bullet proof glass. Then he fell over in the seat and stopped moving…

I had pulled over and knew from experience that staying put was the best thing to do. If you get out, they can get out and if they are drug crazed, then you can die as they attack you.  I sat quietly and waited to see if he was done. I also called my station and did not receive an answer! That was not right for sure! Then a beat cop knocked on my window and scared me to death. I got out of the car, as there was a cop there and told him what happened…

The cop told me to get back and he opened the rear door. In a few minutes he stood up and turned around and said it looks like a dead guy in the back seat. Then he tried to call it in! First the station did not respond and then the hospital did not respond. Then as he was griping about the damn radio, I saw with horror that the guy in the back seat sat up!!!!

I started to scream and point at the guy and the cop spun just in time to have his face bit off by a dead guy. You know what we now know as Zombies…

They went to the ground and the Zombie received at least 5 rounds of 9 mm to the stomach and it never bothered him. He just hung on and ate. I stood there screaming like an idiot and watched the cop die. Then the next thing I knew, the Zombie stopped eating and as he stood up! The cop got up also. The cops face was half gone and one eye hung by the nerve cord. But the cop was in the mood to eat me just like the guy who had been in the taxi wanted to eat me…

I was stunned as the realization that these were Zombies…

The cop had his gun still but it just hung upside down hanging on his finger. He did not know how to use it anymore. I reached and took the gun. Then without thinking, put a round in each one of their heads and started to scream again as the bodies hit the ground…

I know how to shoot, as my dad taught his little girl about the important things in life. But I have always been a screamer and I just can not help it… 🙂

That screaming part has gotten me in trouble with Zombies too many times and right at that moment, a bunch of Zombies decided to see who was screaming! Screaming meant food…

I took two clips of bullets off the cops waist belt and jumped back into the taxi. The windows are bullet proof and she has a big engine, with a heavy suspension and I put it too use as I ran Zombies down as I escaped. I was just glad that it was very early morning and the streets had not been filled with cars yet…

I drove to the taxi station and as I drove by I saw the owner stumbling around like a Zombie and he was chasing a little kid. I opened the door and yelled for the kid and the kid saw me and came running. My boss followed and after the kid climbed in the taxi, I shot my boss between the eyes! I hated that guy anyway…

Instead of the kid staying in the car, he went out the opposite door and last I saw he was a meal for 6 Zombies. Stupid kid…

A plan came to me and since the taxi station was sub-ground level and there was only one drive into it! Being a good driver and all! I revved the engine and accelerated toward the garage opening. I spun the car sideways and it wedged itself perfectly in the opening, side to side. Zombies would have a rough time getting in and there was a gate farther back that I could pull down. Now all I had to do was to clean the Zombies out below and being that it was off hours, the odds are that only a few people were in there…

I hopped over the car hood and went screaming and killing Zombies. 5 in all were inside the station. I knew that my boss had guns, food and other supplies. I drug the bodies out to the street through a side door and then bolted and barred the door. I then bolted and barred all the doors and closed the gate to the car entrance. The gate was ram proof by a car and made to still open. So I guessed correctly that it would do the job and allow me to still get out…

I guess that is it! Oh hey – I have met a few people that survived, but they are all weirdly and such and one even jumped off a building say he can fly or something stupid like that! Drugs I suspect…

Talk to you later…

I met Timmy another green eyed person that survived the initial outbreak of the Zombie Virus. He had an interesting tale of having to take on his parents, two brothers and a sister to survive! He said just getting out of the house that day of the Zombie Virus was enough to make you realize that mankind was history…

Here is Timmy’s story…

Hey I am Timmy and I am 16 years old!

I awoke that morning at around 7 am. The house was extremely quiet and if you had a dad who worked 7 days a week and a mom that worked also, plus three siblings, two brothers and a sister and we always fought for one bathroom in the house, then you know that my house was always noisy in the morning…

Normally I woke by 6 am because of the noise and trying to sleep longer was futile. But this morning the lack of noise woke me at 7 am. I stretched and cracked my joints. Actually I felt pretty good except I had a headache and I have never had one of those before. I assume now that was a reaction to the virus that I had and it gave me a headache as my body fought it off. I got out of bed and went to the door and opened the door slowly, as I knew something was wrong. Just too quiet…

I stepped into the hallway and heard no noise what so ever. Then I stubbed my toe and cussed! That is when all hell broke loose…

At the end of the hallway behind my sisters door, I heard a thumping noise as if someone was trying to get out the door and could not. I also heard a moan, you know that Zombie moan that happens on all Zombie movies on TV. I walked down to my sisters door and knocked. Then something slammed against her door and I jumped back. Then I heard a noise from my parents room…

I opened my sisters door first without thinking and verily dodged her trying to attack me. I guess I went on instinct at that point and did not try to play the game of “oh poor sister” what is wrong. I ran to my parents room and opened the door…

Big mistake…

My parents lunged at me and tried to make me a “meal of the day.” I jumped again, out of instinct and opened my brothers door to get help from them. They slept in the same room as we did not have enough bedrooms. They came after me also…

I fell down the stairs that led to the upstairs bedrooms and looked up from the bottom of the stairs as my family of grey skinned, blood red eyes and blood dripping out of their mouths all looked down at me and all I could see in their eyes was that I was a meal…

As They started to stumble down the stairs, I got up and ran for the fireplace. I picked up the fireplace poker for the burning logs. I use to image that I would use this against Zombies, but never against my family the Zombies…

There was two pokers and I had one in each hand…

Then the fight began. I was fast and they were slow, but they were many and I was one…

A first I was stupid and just smacked them on the head with the pokers. They were my family you know? Then I remember telling myself, “In the head stupid, In the head! Zombies die only with brain destruction!”

Then I poked the poker into their eyes and I started to gain an advantage. One, I blinded them and two, after 4 or 5 pokes my sister died and then my mom! I was finally winning the battle…

I finally finished my dad off with a thrust to the back of his head after I knock him to the ground, face first…

I stood there and then proceeded to crush all their brains as I knew from the damn Zombie movies that someone always gets back up! Well not on my watch they won’t. A sinking feeling came over me as I looked at my family and I hoped that I did the right thing…

I opened the front door of the house and saw that I did the right thing. For out in the streets of my city was Zombies everywhere and they were chasing normal humans to eat them…

I closed the front door and cried a few hours, then I gathered my wits about me and became a Zombie Virus Survivor and have been running ever since…

Timmy

Another story from the early days that I was walking the planet earth to see what is going on…

I met a woman named Sissy…

Sissy was a hairdresser and she was working on a woman’s hair as the virus hit her area…

Sissy was doing a perm job on a woman, the woman just had her hair dyed to auburn color and was in the process of being curled when Sissy almost got bit by the woman that she was doing the hair on. Oh by the way Sissy has green eyes…

He is Sissy’s story as she told me, to the best of my recollection…

Sissy said that she was working the early shift at a 24 hour beauty salon. She was just finishing up a huge monstrous sized woman and little did she know that this three hundred pound woman would almost be the end of her life…

Sissy said:

The hair salon had those old hair dryers that looked like a hood that went down over your head to dry your hair. This was one of the attractions of this salon, because we had much more efficient ways to do hair in the year 3000, but do to a nostalgic era trying to start up about the 1900 in America. We had things like these beauty salons that catered to rich people the old hair way…

It was this old hair dryer that saved my life as when this woman became a Zombie, she was trapped temporarily under the hood and it took her a second to get out. I was attempting to check her hair and she was acting very bad and unruly, then she tried to bite me and was stopped by the heavy plastic hood of the hair dryer. I jumped back and she moaned that terrible Zombie moan and I just knew what was happening. That hood on the dryer gave me enough time to run behind the counter and try to call the police. That was a futile effort as the police already had three million or so cases of the Zombie Virus reported in a city of 6 million people. I was on my own and I knew a Zombie when I saw a Zombie…

I hung up the phone and was in deep thought! That is when Miss Red Head of the Dead tried to tear the counter down in between the two of us. She still had the hair dryer hood on her head and she was moaning something terrible and it was echoed sounding and amplified coming out from under that hood…

Know a hair stylist place such as ours had all the old time hair cutting stuff. I grabbed a scissors and since the hood was on this monsters head, all I could do was stab it in the arms and chest. This had no effect and she did not even bleed. I then saw the broom that I used to sweep with and I grabbed it and pushed the hood off her head. When I did that she bit the broom handle and but it in two. It was wood. just like the old days…

She cracked it and left a pointed end in my hands and as she lunged across the counter again with wood splinters in her mouth. I drove the point of the broom handle with all my strength into her left eye. She backed up and did not fall, but I could tell that it had slowed her down a bunch. I had destroyed enough brain to effect her. Now she could hardly move and was hardly moaning. But she still wanted my brains…

I ran around the counter and went for the door. She lugged that 300lb body after me and I intended to try to send her out the door. I opened the door and she stumbled at me. I pulled a lighter out of my pocket and as she tried to slow down and find me. I lit the dried straw that made up the broom and it flamed like a torch. I stepped aside and slipped around back of her and pushed as hard as I could and she stumbled out the door into the street…

The last I saw of her, she was stumbling after someone else and she had a flaming old time broom sticking out of her head…

I closed the door and pulled the steel curtains down and being that I was alone, I made a cup of coffee and smoked a cigarette to calm my nerves…

That was how my life started in this wonderful world of Zombies that we are now in…

Sissy…

I was saving this story for a different time. I have lots of stories and have just posted a few here in the book…

This story seems like a good one to tell now! As I am just walking through the vast woods and tracking a Zombie God…

So here is Sui’s story:

Hi my name is Sui and I am telling this fine interesting guy named Styker, my story of what was happening the day the Zombie Virus struck my city I lived in…

The city is unimportant as it no longer exists. It burned to the ground after the last few survivors decided that the only way to stop the virus was to burn the damn Zombies. Sp they burned Zombies and found out that then they had a walking, moaning, molotov cocktail that did not stop until it was completely consumed by fire and that took many minutes. During those minutes the Zombie caught all around it on fire and since we have very little rain, well our city was a tender box and went up in flames as fast as the Zombies did…

When the Zombie Virus hit I was tending my garden in the front yard. I was using some of the precious water to water my plants early in the morning. You see, it was against the law to water your yard and plants. Why it was against the law for me to even collect rain water and save it to water plants. Damn government anyway. Well they are all gone now and I say good to that…

But, as I was saying! I was watering my garden and keep a low profile. It was that low profile that saved me at that time. I have a neighbor gentleman who just loves to entertain ladies many nights a week. He always has loud noises and parties going on. So it was no surprise this morning when I saw him stumble out looking rather worse for the wear, but what was a surprise was the woman who leaped out of the front door and attacked him…

She bit him on the back and he was screaming like a little kid. Then he shut up and the next thing I new. He stood up and they both went after the UPS man who had just stopped to deliver his first package of the day, to another neighbor…

That was the start of a chain of events that allowed me to watch all the neighbors on the street, being either attacked and turned into Zombies or already being Zombies attacking anything they saw move…

I stood in my garden as quiet as a mouse and being the only one alone in the house I had no one to worry about, but myself. I just stood mortified and that is what saved me. No one including Zombies knew I was there…

After everything calmed down and all the Zombies had wandered away looking for more food. I slowly sneaked back into my house and quietly closed the door. I knew what was going on, for you see I had prepared for this many many years ago. I had weapons, food and water stashed. I also had reenforced doors and windows on my house. I am from a long line of believers in Zombies and no way would I not be ready for this…

My cat named Furry, was very upset with what she was seeing out the front bay window. I pulled all the metal shutters and locked the steel doors. It was the commotion that I created shutting the house down that drew Zombie attention…

The next thing I knew I had hundreds of Zombies all around the yard, why they trampled my garden that I just watered. Damn Zombies…

I went to the attic and opened the door that I had installed in the roof, so that I could look out and see who was in my yard if a Zombie attack did happen. It was a little platform that I built at the peak of the roof. I could shoot and or just observe from this platform…

At first I just observed. I looked and watched for several days. Then when I realized that I was the only one who was still human as far as I could see from my perch. I gathered my rifle, with scope and went to target practice. I have a 218 Bee varmint rifle and I can shoot the eye out of a chipmunk at 200 yards. So shooting the eye out of a Zombie at 200 yards is nothing…

I spent a few fun days cleaning the street of Zombies and being so dry and dehumidify, the bodies just shriveled up into wrinkled up masses. The crows and vultures finished off the rest and smell was never a issue. I had a silencer and would shoot an old bell in the church tower down the street. It would ring and clang. Then the Zombies would all stumble to see what was making the noise. When they were all near the old church, I would just silently send them all to their Zombie grave forever…

I know I sound cold and heartless and I guess I am. But hey I am still alive and most everyone is a Zombie or dead. Well a Zombie is dead. So all are dead almost…

I have my garden back and it is helping supply fresh veggies and I have blocked easy access to the street I live on. So I have plenty of room for Furry and I to walk around and look at things safely. Occasionally I have to put a straggling Zombie down with my silencer 9mm Beretta! But it has been a month since I had to do that! It seems that the Zombies are leaving to find food elsewhere and they know that they are not gonna eat me…

That is it I guess…

Dog and I traipsed through the forest following the trail that the Zombie God left. It was easy as he just did not care what he tore up as he ran away. I figure that I could follow this trail even a month from now…

But as Dog and I was following that trail. We came upon a cabin in the woods…

The owner of the cabin was named Ricky and he was definitely a man who had been in the woods a long time and just the other day he saw his first Zombie in 50 years and it was the Zombie God that we were tracking…

Ricky did not even no that the world had come to an end and really he could care less. He did wonder why the old store located 45 miles away at Carson Corner was abandoned, but he helped himself to all the food and such that he could carry in 5 trips and emptied the store. He said he left money to cover all that he took and had just been wondering about that very store as he saw this huge stupid looking ugly Zombie thing tramp through his garden the other day. Ricky said that it ruined half his crops and that now he would be in trouble food wise…

Dog took to Ricky and they sat near a fire he built outside to take away the chill and then at my persistence, Ricky told me what he has been doing the last few years…

As I said Ricky had not seen a Zombie for 50 years and that he had been out in the woods for longer than that. Ricky is 75 years old and looks about 45 years old. 50 years ago he killed a Zombie in his home town and was run out of the town as a trouble maker…

He said that he knew Zombies were going to make a comeback and that it was just a matter of time. So Ricky came to the woods and decided to live a life of seclusion and peace…

Ricky decided that mankind was stupid and he would have no part of mankind. The only time he use to chat with anyone was when he wandered into the store and bought supplies twice a year. In fact he had whittled down from twice a year to once a year and was trying to only go once every two years. Well now according to what he found at the store the last time he went. He will never have to go back and never will. He figures that he will be dead before he runs out of staples now after that last haul from the store…

Ricky had just made a fresh loaf of bread and he had a huge deer bone for Dog! Dog and I were in heaven. He also had some homemade brew that was right fine and delicious. Goats milk topped off Dog’s meal and we all settled back to a story of Ricky’s…

The story was familiar and I smiled as he told it, but hey! He would never believe who I was and who am I too talk down to my elders… 🙂

Ricky said that in the old days, there was a man who forewarned of the coming Zombie War of 2012! This man tried to stimulate the world into fighting back and no one listened. All anyone did was play video games and watch them damn “Dancing with the Stars” shows…

This man never gave up and finally after all was said and done he single handily defeated the Zombies and restored Earth back from the dead. They said that he was a god and loved Earth so much, that he gave his own soul and life several times to bring Earth back from the dead…

But now Earth has done it again and the Zombie plague has reached all parts of the planet. Some say that this man has come back and is trying to remove the Zombies from earth again…

I say that, it has been a thousand years since he was last on Earth and like all gods and such, everyone dies. I think he is gone from the Universe…

Ricky went on to express that he prays to the want and need for this god to come back to Earth and save us, but we are really too stupid to save and it would be a waste of time if he did come back…

Ricky was tired and fell asleep as he finished talking to Dog and I. Regardless how he looks, he is an old man and old men need sleep to keep going…

I decided to use a little Reaper magic and fix his garden! I also gave him a few more good years of life, about 10 added to the 10 he had left. He would live until 95 if nothing else gets him before that. I also removed the age from his cabin and when I walked away with Dog, he had a brand new cabin to live in…

I asked Dog if he was staying or coming with me! I knew that Dog wanted to stay and I would not keep him from staying. Dog would stay with me if I insisted, but I knew better and I knew that this was a better life for Dog. Dog was not mine and he needed to be where he would be happiest…

Doh whined and I reached down and petted his head. I said, “Dog, I had a dog like you once, but you are not that dog. I can not hold you by my memory and that would just be unfair. Please stay with Ricky if you desire and I promise that I will not hold a grudge against you in anyway. Ricky needs you more than I do!”

I looked up and saw Ricky looking at me and he stayed silent! I then stood up and turned my back and walked away…

Ricky was on his feet and staring wide eyed at all that had changed around him…

As I was almost out of sight…

I heard Ricky yell, “You are God! You are him!”

I turned and saw Ricky on his knees and hands clasped with his eyes closed. Dog was running around him and barking for joy…

I then turned and went to catch a Zombie God! In my mind I was thinking, “No I am not just a god, Ricky! I am a Reaper of the Zombie Gods! That makes me much more than just a god!” so “But “God Bless You Ricky” use the years I gave you wisely. See ya Dog…”

Stryker

OMG seems to fit this situation and OMG he is huge seems to fit even better…

It has been a long time since I have seen a full blown Zombie God Zombie. 3000 years ago I thought I had destroyed the last one of these nasty creatures. They are as powerful as a god and much more indestructible because of being a Zombie…

He had poor Dog in his huge hand and was looking at me with his pure black soulless eyes…

He squinted his eyes as ancient memories started to form in his mind at the sight of me and then he looked at Dog and smiled. He had me and he knew it. He saw that Dog was important to me and that he could trade Dog’s life for his life…

I stood very still and did not move to my blade. As fast as I am and as dead as I would kill him. He would finish Dog with a single squeeze and have the last laugh as my doggy dies. I would take his soul, but that would be little revenge for my new buddy to die. So I just stayed still and watched what the Zombie was going to do…

He asked me do I give my word to let him go with out death! He said that he would free my “Little Doggy” as he said it with a baby voice…

I shook my head and since Reapers never break their word. If I mean I would not kill him if he puts the dog down, I mean it and would deal with this Zombie god later. I just wanted my buddy okay and that people is how anyone can get into a situation that allows a bad guy to control you. I very very rarely have friends and this is why…

The Zombie gods knows that I will keep my word and he sets down the dog. He runs off laughing as he taunts me with a baby voice and talks the whole way away, about little doggy and little scared doggy and little doggy is good to eat…

I made up my mind to kill that Zombie one day and sooner than later…

Dog ran too me and licked my face. He was a happy dog and was glad I saved him. I am glad also, but I would like to know if there are more of these Zombie gods and if there is, Where are they?

Dog and I stopped for the day and I had some thinking to do. The finding a Winter home will wait a little while. It looks like I need to hunt down a Zombie god and that Zombie god knows that I will. He will also be ready. I have to protect Dog better and tonight I will do something about how to protect him…

If only he was my dog from thousands of years ago. I called him Dogg (D-O-G-G) and he was a tough dog, I am here to tell you…

I am going to build a fire tonight and do some thinking. The Zombie god is too scared to come back, in fact he is running as fast as he can looking over his shoulder every other step as he runs…

He better, because I am coming for him, starting tomorrow…

Stryker

Dog and I walked all day, I was deep in thought and even left the Zombies alone that wandered near us. I was deeply thinking about the past…

My mind stepped back into the Zombie God War…

I remember that I had an army of gods and angles! Yes gods and angles and I met God himself, you know the one who is Almighty and most powerful. I met him and he was well, I will leave that for another time…

I slayed billions and billions of Zombies. The whole know Universe was turned into Zombies. Back then at least only 75% turned to Zombies, not like the turn rate of 99+ % as it is now. So back then we could still fight a good battle, as Zombies are just not as good as a non Zombie in battle. Besides normal creatures had the advantage mentally, you had something to fight for (Your life!). Zombies fight to eat and that is that. They do not fight to survive, they fight for no other reason than to just eat your brains…

Then I noticed while I was deep in thoughts, that Dog was gone and not a bark was given…

I turned around in a circle and saw nothing…

Then I heard a whimper and  I took off running for the sound…

We meet a Specialty Zombie God, he was left over from the war and lets say he is upset with Dog and I. He is also hungry…

How in the world did he get here?

Stryker…

We stumbled upon a family living in a cave. Dog and I were wandering around a forest and Dog decided to check out a scent he picked up. He seemed to think that it was humans and not Zombies…

We came upon a cave. It was a shallow dip in the ground and would be very hard for a Zombie to get in. Unless the Zombie was crawling, other wise it would most likely never even see the cave…

Dog and I checked it out and discovered signs of people. Humans that is, non Zombies and with that we had to see if they were still alive…

We crawled into the cave and discovered that a war was going on inside. It seems that a group of 5 infected men had found the cave and crawled into the cave. While the family that was using the cave slept this last night. The men finished turning into Zombies. The dad and mom where trying to ward off the 5 Zombies and save the kids, who looked to be about 5 and 6…

All the Zombies were trying to get in a narrowed passage that the parents were guarding. They did not have very good weapons and once again I wondered how they survived?

I took my sword and with one swipe removed the Zombies souls and they dropped in their tracks. No noise and no fight, just hit the ground like a sack of potatoes…

The mom and dad looked at me with terror in their eyes. I later learned that they were of a Scientology Sect and they had lived here years before the Zombies had come this last time. Interesting…

Mom was named Sue and dad was named Tom! The kids refused to talk and I never got their names and did not really care. They were not my type of people and they could never trust me, as per their beliefs in the world…

But hey here is their story and it is added for information on what is happening in the world…

Tom talked to me and basically he is the only one who said anything, Sue told me her name and never even thanked me for saving them. In fact she called me the devil and walked away… 🙂

Tom kinda figured that I was at least owed a cup of coffee and some talk. He seemed to be the least affected of the group as far as a sect went. I found out that there was several more families buried in these hills and that they all had been here way before it all happened. Tom said he really never figured that it really would happened, but his wife was adamant about following the rules of the sect…

Funny thing about them! They all have blue eyes?

Here is what Tom said…

Hi, My name is Tom,

My family and I found this cave many years ago and decided to makes a home out of it. We as a group never stopped believing in Zombies as many had done. I was a scientist originally and worked under a a man named Zighile Comstock. I escaped the mind playing games and joined with a group of Scientology and found that the sect was a peaceful existence. My wife really took to them and we actually were in a very safe spot when it all happened…

I remember well the day we saw our first Zombie and actually it seems that it had been months after the virus had spread. We had no idea before that! We found out when we made a trip to the nearest town during a rain storm…

The whole town was standing out in the rain just staring at the sky as it rained. How weird and they thought we were weird…

We found the store and it was empty of people, but the door was open. It looked really strange and all the freezers and coolers were off and rotten. The rain continued to pour outside and I gathered what I could for food and left the money on the counter. I did not want people to say I stole, no matter how weird they looked right now. Then as we just got into the car, it stopped raining…

That is when I knew that we were in trouble…

It struck me that these were Zombies and I just had not wanted to believe it at first. Real Zombies and they all wanted to eat us…

They shattered the windows of the car, as I tried to start the car and get out of there…

We use to have one more child actually and he was 7 years old. They took him from the car threw the window and the last I saw was he was being ripped into pieces as he screamed. The car started and my wife said that boy was evil anyway and get out of there…

That was how she dealt with his death! He was an evil demon and deserved to die. That is how she deals with everything…

We ran back home and I got my family to safety.  It started to rain again and I told my wife to stay and I am going to get all the food I can. I left and while it rained for two more days I emptied the store of food. All the food that we could use from it. I found no one else alive in the town. It looked like everyone was a Zombie. Everyone…

Then Sue, Tom’s wife yelled, “Devils all of them devils and that is what you are! You damn devil…”

Tom looked at me as if he was sorry and continued his story…

Tom then said that once he got the food home he wanted to get weapons and his wife made it clear that weapons will not be allowed. God will protect us and that is that…

Tom whispered that God is not doing a very good job and that a thank you was in order for my help. We would have been Zombies by now…

I told Tom that the men that I had just killed had swords and he better keep one or two of those swords handy. Learn to cut their heads off or be ready to be a Zombie. I told him that no matter what his wife says he better get smart because the Zombies are starting to roam and look for food. All food is gone in the towns and cities…

I walked back into the cave and picked up Sue by one hand and looked her in the eyes…

I told her that I will be back in a few months and if they are dead, I will come for her soul and take it to Zombie hell. Her eyes got wide and she had a look of shear terror in those eyes. I said the devil always follows up on his promise…

I dropped her and turned to Tom and said, “Stop being a wussy and take charge of your family!”

Then I told Dog to follow me and we left…

The last words I heard as we crawled out of the cave was, “Sit down woman and listen to me now. It is time we come to our senses,  I am not dieing in this cave listening to you go on about devils all the time…”

I smiled as Dog and I hit the road again…

Stryker…

I decided that Dog and I need each other. I had not had a buddy for a long long time. Could be just the ticket for a happier life…

I told Dog to come with me and I would protect him and he could protect me. That made him happy and off we went. I decide that the Big City was a terrible place and Dog and I wandered out of town. We decided to go North and find a shelter for the Winter! You see Zombies freeze solid as a rock in the Winter. Then when spring comes they come back to life as if nothing happened…

We wanted to find a good solid place to hold up in the Winter with lots of food, water and fuel for heat…

That was the plan and I hope it works out. I have decided to take a break from Zombie hunting for a few months. So as it will take the rest of the Summer to find our place and get it ready for the Winter. Dog and I took off and started our adventure together. It was kinda nice having a four legged friend to walk with me…

Dog said that he wished his cat friend could have made it! He would like going North…

Stryker…

PS: Next we met, Tom and his family…

That is what I call him, Dog…

He reminds me of a dog I had many many many years ago! Back in the days when the world was still normal and I was normal…

Here is Dog’s story…

Dog said that he was a member of a nice family and the family was made up of two kids (boy and girl), a mom and a dad. He said that he remembered well the day that the whole family changed and he just made it out of the pet door in the back kitchen door before they decided to eat him…

He was just finishing a water break as his favorite water bowl by the kitchen refrigerator. He heard a noise that seemed to be the dad getting up, but that was about an hour too early. He said sometimes though dad went to work early and this might be one of those times…

Then Dog said,

I saw the little girl, she was about 10 years old the best that I can figure, she was walking around the living room and bumping into things. She acted drunk like dad and mom got when they went out and left the kids and a stranger to watch them. They always came home acting like they could not walk well and falling over things…

The girl then heard a noise upstairs and started to stumble up the stairs. I followed and followed her down the hallway as she walked to where the noise was. Then the door to mom and dads bedroom opened and out came dad, going to work. He looked at the girls and hollered for mom. He grabbed the little girl and right then she bit his face. I at first thought damn and they worry about me biting people…

Then all hell broke loose as the boy ran out of his bedroom and bit dad also. Then mom was screaming and dad turned to mom and all three of them bit and ate mom. Mom never did come back, like the others and they just ate all of her. When they were done, I just sat there and stared. I was kinda freaked out, as you see I never saw humans eat other humans before…

Then I yawned as I was getting tired. So I moved and that is when they noticed me. They all started after me snapping their mouths like they were going to eat me next. I decided that I would not appreciate being a dog steak and ran down the stairs. I almost got trapped at the front door and I squeezed by them just in time. I realized that they were serious and would not open the door to let me out. They wanted to eat me…

I remembered that I had a way out, the back door had a pet door in it and they wee good about not locking it. I ran into the kitchen and just as they all tried to grab me again. I slipped through the little door…

They started to moan and moan and moan! Man they were upset that I got away. They could not open the door though and that surprised me. They always could open it before, so my little dog brain started to wonder what was going on?

I looked around my yard and it was fenced. But I had ways out so that was not a worry. The cat next door jumped upon the fence and asked me am I normal. Now it is a fact that cats are smarter than dogs and that is just the way it is. I don’t get all upset about it and just listen when a cat talks to me. Usually I will discover what is happening….

I told the cat that I was okay, but my family was terrible. Mom was eaten and the others were trying to eat me…

The cat said, “Same at my house! They are Zombies!”

I looked stupid at the cat and the cat went on to explain what a Zombie was and what was happening. The cat and I have lived next to each other for a lot of years and I learned to listen to him many times before. He was always correct…

I don’t remember all that he said, but I do know that him and I left together and he was just died of old age. He was real old to begin with, but he stayed around long enough to teach me what I needed to know to survive or at least help survive…

Now I am sitting here with you and you can talk to me and I to you! That is weird and no human has ever understood me before. That is if you are human?

Can I stay with you? I am a good dog and I don’t eat much!

Hmm! That sound pretty cool…
