It started off as any normal day, Everyone was out doing their own things with their lives. Wondering what to get for their daughters birthday, Debating what lunch they were going to get, Then just settle down with a simple drive thru item instead. People are lazy, Slow. Since it is a long story, I might as well explain who I am. My name is Emma, Emma Adams. I love pizza and playing legend of Zelda at 3aclock in the morning, I don't fight, Or start fights. Hell I hate talking to people in general much less than starting confrontation. But right now I am hauling ass from someone trying to eat my face. It's not everyday you see a human biting into another humans jugular like its a rack of ribs, And those eyes, Cold, Lifeless but wide-set eyes. I never felt so unsettled in my whole life. That person darted right at me as soon as we met eyes, The screams of random strangers were heard all through-out the mall as I felt my heart drop and began to run to the nearest escape. I desperately tried to remember which way was out as if I was almost timed, I leaped over tables and scattered my way down the escalator. Ahead was a hallway where the main exit was, People ran elbow to elbow trying to get out as more people began to eat amongst each-other.
After making my way out of the hoard of people and out the mall doors as the "monsters" clawed against the doors begging to be out and the horrifying sound and people screaming in pain, My stomach turned as I clinched my fists.. . ( Peoples skin rotting off their bodies, Still running around as if it was nothing.. . Trying to eat each-other, Dead bodies were scattered everywhere. Car alarms were going off all along the road, Echoing on for what seemed like forever). I see a faint light in the distance flickering, A towering symbol of "E.Z" stood over the building, Cars parked but the doors were open almost as if the drivers bolted. But as of right now I am still using my body weight to hold this door shut, Or these "monsters" could legit kill me.. . I take a double take- left to right to see that there is a tree and a concrete slab placed to my right, The tree looked like a stupid holiday ornament that went wrong but it could hold the door shut by me placing it inside the handles, Holding it long enough for me to get the slab of concrete. As I quickly, Probably the fastest I've ever ran in my life, I swipe of the tree and slide it through the handle. The monsters beating down the door, I give it a quick push forward and run towards the concrete that is dented into the ground, As I grab it and start lifting it with my legs I begin to do almost a dragging motion seeing as the whole concrete piece is too big for me to carry alone, I slide it across the ground making a loud unpleasant screech sound, Concrete on concrete. Suddenly, A soft snap is heard, The tree begins to snap. As the tree breaks apart I almost throw the concrete with all the strength I can muster causing the door to slam shut right back on their rotting faces. I book it down the road.
After making it my way down the street I stood right next to the sign towering over me, My hair blew in front of my face rather often due to the wind.. And the moon was surprisingly bright. I nervously approach the door and took a deep breath, slowly opening it. Honestly praying that the alarm wouldn't go off alerting I am here. I always hated those.. They made me even more nervous to go inside, Let alone the fact I always had to talk to a cashier. I remember getting a chill down my spine, An unsafe feeling. But would it be wrong to maybe collect supplies? I without a thought snatched a sack from behind the counter and began to anxiously toss everything I saw in the bag hoping it would hold, Chips, Water, A can of monster for my own personal need. I grabbed some medicine of every kind, I couldn't really tell the difference by name and had no time to read each label. Suddenly I heard a somewhat unfamiliar sudden "click", and that was the first time someone ever pointed a gun to my head.. .
