1159 Words
Just as soon as the officer said that we realized that there was a zombie hanging on the side of the chopper.
"OMG its gonna get in!"
"OH shut up you p***y its just one zombie."
In saying that he took my sword out of my hands and swung it at the zombies scull and off came half of its head.
"Jeez give it a little respect it was human at one point."
"Yeah?, but is it human now is the bigger question?
"I'm just saying if you turned would you want me to brutally murder you?"
"I'm not gonna turn, because i'm immune to the virus."
"What, I thought that you said that only kids were immune."
"Well I guess i'm one of the lucky ones who now have to survive and fight through this... i have been around the zombies since the beginning and I am not infected yet."
"Wait the beginning?" "This all just happened didn't it?"
"No this has been going on for at least a month now but its just now getting out of control, you see when someone gets a new unknown disease they are quarantined where they will most likely die as the disease kills them. But this zombie virus is different once infected you've got 30 seconds to a minute depending on your immune system to say goodbye. But now the virus is evolving to where, when you turn you spit blood everywhere getting in the eyes mouth and other places. When first infected the "Zombie" doesn't wanna eat you, it wants to infect you."

We arrive in Nevada to find that the government found a cure for death and had some extreme side effects, and that they have been preparing since. They have a huge wall around their building although the zombies would have to get through the desert first in order to get here. The only sign of zombies were some stragglers at the fence that are trying to get in, but they cant get in because it is a brick fence that doesn't look like it'll fall anytime soon.
Seeing the compound kinda makes you wanna go home and hide under your bed, its really scary seeing people in hazmat suits, but they probably aren't immune to the virus like 97.99 percent of adults and some unlucky kids, as I was told on the helicopter ride here.
"Damn i would hate to not be immune and have to were one of those suits."
"Yeah I know what your talking about, when this all first went down I had to were one of those things for 3 weeks and i had to be fed through a tube that was inside of the suit, because we couldn't take the suit off for any reason, but now that i'm out of it i am very grateful to be immune."
"Whats it like inside of the compound?"
"It's safer than out here, that's for sure. So lets get inside."
"Okay Lets do this."

As soon as we get inside we are greeted by what seems to be the leader of the compound, he eminently tells us that he is sorry for our losses, but when he notices my mothers arm, he imminently takes action.
"Hey I have something for your arm, its something we've been working on. It a material that you apply to your arm and your arm and bone will actually grow back in a few moments."
My mom just wanting her arm back said it was okay, and to my amazement when the liquid material was applied to my mothers arm and it started to completely grow back, even the mole on her elbow was still there.
"Um can you get rid of that mole?"
"Sure thing the scientist said as he pointed another invention at my mothers arm, and her mole completely vanished."
"Damn you could of made millions with these inventions, why didn't you try and sell them?"
"We didn't sell them because we have been trying to create a cure for death for about ten years so we haven't had enough time to sell things like this."
"But as you know things went terribly wrong and there are now zombies roaming the streets of the world."
"So why gamer's, what makes us so special?"
"What makes you special is your ability to use weapons and destroy a threat that wants you dead."
"Yeah well I have never shot a real gun in my life so i don't think that I will qualify."
Just as I Finnish my sentence a small hand gun is thrown at me and a zombie comes out of no where and charges at me and my mom, I didn't even have time to think, i just shoot the zombie in the head and bang; just like that i learned to shoot a gun.
"So you were saying?"
"Well i swear i'm not lying okay."
"I believe you, but sense you have played games so much with guns, you have the fight or flight thing, where your brain decides to take over and fight with the skills that you have while playing a mach of COD Zombies."
"Wait so your saying even tho I don't know how to shoot a gun, my brain does, so it takes over for me and shoots the zombie just like that."
"Exactly what i am trying to tell you, you don't have to know how to shoot a gun to be able to defend yourself with a gun."
"Wow that's just crazy."
"Anyways lets get started on your tour of the compound, you'll start your training in a week after you get settled down after your traumatic incidents of the last few weeks."
"Yeah tell me about it, these last few weeks of the zombie apocalypse has been totally crazy. I never thought that i would be able to even kill one of those things.
"Alright so lets get started on your tour on the compound, This it the entrance where you will be leaving every day to try and find as many survivors as possible, this is the cafeteria where you will have a good 4 meals a day. This is where you will be sleeping on a king sized bed... i know we are spoiling you but its what we want to do since you'll be risking your life all the time for the sake of human kind. And last of all this is the tech room where you'll be stationed first everyday at 6:00 am to 10:00 am to scan the areas of the world for survivors that are grouping up, which is what we predict will happen.
"Alright if you have any questions you can come find me in my office near the entrance area."
"Have a good nights sleep, you'll need it since you will have to wake up at 6:00 am to start your training in the tech room."
