I watched the two children sleep that night and as I do not sleep, at least in the sense that you need sleep, I kept an eye out for Zombies and idiots that are worse than Zombies…
They ate a huge amount of food before bed time, but as food is not an issue in this world. Stores are still full of canned goods and they seem to last forever. The Zombie Virus hit so fast that 99% of the population was Zombiefied within a few hours. Food for billions left for a hundred thousand? The wild animals have flourished as they do not become Zombies and a normal Zombie can not catch them. So lots of good rabbits to eat…
I had been thinking back to the time before the Zombies and the world the way it is. I had to really do some figuring as I have not wandered for awhile what year it was…
3014 AD is the year and I was born in the year, 1959 AD! I lived through the original Zombie War of 2012 AD and then the Zombie God War of 2019! Then the earth went through a period of time with out any humans, until the gods replanted the seed in 2076. I was allowed back to my home planet in 2088 and have been here ever sense. I watched the world repopulate a a tremendous pace and things were good until the resurrection by Black Witches of a man named Zighile Comstock in the year, 3001. Zighile was the reason for the original Zombie War of 2012 and the reason that Zombies were so plentiful on earth…
With his uprising, the Zombies came back to a world that had forgotten all about these Zombies. We had finally healed after the centuries of death and destruction in the past. Then my job became prevalent again and I was called into action to help the world against the greatest virus that ever has hit the Universe. The Zombie Virus…
I know walk the earth and am looking for Zighile and his entourage as I walk this earth, I collect stories as a hobby of what happened to people, the day that the Zombie Virus came back…
The virus is a little different this time, but there is no weakness in it except the fact that Zombies act really weird when it rains. The Zombies outside in the rain, stop and stare open mouthed at the sky as if they are in a trance. As you read when Emma told her story, her parents were found doing just that staring at the sky. Zombies inside a building do not care if it is raining…
So I am 1055 years old and looks like another thousand years for me at this pace. In the Zombie God War of 2019, I was recruited so to say and became a Grim Reaper! I really had very little choice in the matter and to save my existence in this Universe, I had to take the powers of a Reaper on and make them my own. I was the first human to ever become a Reaper and it has been a huge undertaking to get acceptance in the Reaper world and Universe. After a about a thousand years they kinda like me now and they accept me. It does not hurt that I am the most powerful Reaper in existence and that kinda keeps everyone away from me…
I had sidekicks at one time and I have outlived them all. It gets lonely at times living forever. For a Grim never dies, well except the one I killed and that was the first Grim to have ever died. The rest of the Reaper’s do not talk about that one time. It kinda makes them nervous…
So I sat and look at the kids and wonder now that I am a daddy, what do I do?
We then meet Kate and her story is next…

PS: Maybe I will tell more later about my thousand years on earth and what I have seen! Maybe…
