"Every twist, every turn, can challenge our sense of direction. But, it's the choices we make when we reach a fork in the road that define who we are."

-Dexter Morgan, Dexter

"You can't fix your broken promise. Our ties have come undone. I will not be used to be battered and abused. It's the reason why I choose to cut my losses. Your lies fool no one. Your magic white rabbit. Your white room straight jacket"

We mustn't be afraid of what's to come from the end. Without fear, there may never be courage. After the virus broke loose- unleashing hell against man-kind- no one knew what had hit them. In some's eyes, it would appear as if someone had opened Pandora's Box, an ancient artifact that was known to hold all the evils of the world, hoping to gain revenge. The reason, is beyond knowledge.

The virus had acted as a jumpstart, re-starting the cerebellum- the part that controls your movements and coordination's. Re-animated corpses of our dead had started to roam the earth aimlessly whilst searching and craving the one thing we supply plenty of. Human flesh.

One bite, one scratch and you would become like them. Get bit, the fever would hit, and you would drop dead in a click- coming back to join the hundreds and thousands of other demons.

In acts of survival, you need people you can trust. But, that's asking awfully a lot during these times as everyone has changed completely. No one cares on what they have to do to reach the end and they will kill anyone and anything that get's in their way. It was as if the dead had torn away their last bits of humanity.

They've become less human...more of a monster.

You need to be careful with your decisions, and absolutely mustn't let anything anger you, as a lesson I'd learn painfully- anger makes you stupid; stupid get's you killed.

The story you are about to hear is full of pain, regret, and is telling the tale of a survivor who has only swapped one hell, for another. It is not some typical romance novel where the prince comes and saves the damsel, but is far worst...and far more twisted. The survivor isn't too well on knowing how to save and comfort others- partially because she doesn't know how to save her self. In a world like this, she is looking for the one road to perdition. Whether she walks it alone or with another is beyond her knowledge.

I am Jessica Daniels, and this- this is my story.
