The Scimitar fuel lasted us for just over 27 miles, I was suprised, the way my luck had been going I would have guessed it wouldn’t have gotten us half that, but we finally ground to a halt a mile and a half outside the town of Shrewsbury.
Packing all we could salvage into are bergen, we headed out into the town with the hope of reaching the army barracks located in the middle of Shrewsbury.
It was hard work, little rain had fallen for the past 6 weeks, and the air was thick and dry yet we made good progress.
I was second in line, following Lance Corporal Roberts, behind me was Privates Lee and taken up the rear was Corporal Romero as tail end charlie. The undead had a nasty habit of sneeking up on you I tell you know. We were all equipped with the L85A2 with only 3 full magazines left, I also carried my 9mm browning in my holster.
We were unopposed till we reached the welsh bridge, half way across Roberts right hand shot up, and gestured to the far side. A small group were slowly get meanfully shambling towards.
Almost instanly we moved into line, crouching down, there must have been only 15 but the shots would attract more and we couldn’t fight are way around, the recently deseaced were blocking our paths and we needed to open it up.

‘BRING IT ON YOU GOD DAMN UNDEAD BAST…’
My screaming insult was cut short by the sudden eruption of machine gun fire. Ever seen what a 7.62 can do to a undeads head, let me tell you it’s not pretty.
I had left the my remaining section to try and salvage the Scimitar, but instead of tearing of anything of use they had managed to get it fixed, and in doing so had saved my life.
The recon vechicle had a GPMG fixed on a pintle to it and was now carving its way through a small rabble of the recently deceased.
I began to sprint over to my rescuer, as I grew closer i saw that my second IC Cpl Romero was handling the Gimpy shouting abuse that could be heard over his protective gas mask.
He gestured towards the open hatch, a direction I was swift to follow, placing the now empty L85A2 in first before my own bulky frame before slaming the hatch down, securing it for CBRN defence.

The bitch tried to bite my arm.
I chopped his head off.
It was peaceful here, yeah. And no, the dead didn’t rise up from their graves. — Harold, Cemetery Caretaker for 25 years.
I don’t know, man. The living is giving me more problems than the dead. I got one magazine left and I don’t know if I should save this for the undead or for the other survivors who want to take things from us. — Tom, a Vietnam vet.
i was just walking to work and when I got there I went up to the 10th floor like normal to ask my boss for a raise but when I got to his office I heard bumping and rumbling so from out side his door I said “are you okay?” then the rumbling stops and my boss punches thew the door! then oh no they are coming for me I need to find somewhere to hide……. (I decide to pretend I am a zombie)…..”AHHHHHHH” a female foice sceams. me and my zombie “friend” run to the door and we run up the hall and I spot a windo and I jump out and hope the zombie dident notis me. I will finish asap

…. Control, where the hell are we supposed to land?! They’re all over the fucking landing pad! The base has been compromised! I repeat, base has been compromised.
*Distorted reply from controller*
Roger that. (Gunfire is heard in the back ground) Pad is clear but I can see a larger crowd approaching from the east. I haven’t got much fuel left, Using up the last of munitions. (More gunfire is heard and the sound of rockets being launched, followed by the sound of detonation) That’s it, I’m out. Fuels just about to go. Long live the Queen. OH Shit…… (Engine failure alarm is heard followed by a crumpling sound before the radio cuts out.)
Every single week i’ve been trying to save some money for that new Game thats been out. Now I have it, but theres noone to play with. I sacrificed so much in order to get this game. I killed so many things! Zombies, Humans, Animals! I shot a F*cking puppy trying to follow me! I thought it would slow me down…I-I was wrong. I ran as fast as I could to get to the mall. Now I’m here. alone. In a corner. Writing on a tissue with my blood.Waiting…to die…and slowly awake.
My roommate and I woke up from a loud banging in my dorm room. My roommate was closer from the door so he was the one that opened it. Next thing I know, he was being attacked by 2 people. They don’t look human. I freaked out and ran through the bathroom to my suitemate’s room and went out through there. I ran for my life. I’m in the library now and it’s awfully quiet….
It started off simply enough, we we’re tasked as a PSD Team for some civilian WHO medics. Investigating a really weird case in China, some family had been attacked by a wild dog while visiting the Great Wall, the child was badly mauled, and the father bitten by the dog while defending his child, but the dog died after being stabbed in the chest by a pocket knife.
The boy’s health just got worse, no matter what the medics did, then one night he died, as we we’re escorting the medics to the boys hut, he fucking walked out of the front door, blood covering his face, he attacked Charolette, the hot blond that I would have slept with, if I wasnt defending her life in China.
Charolette, right, he just stumbled right into her arms, and ripped out her throat with her teeth, well what do you think we did, I pulled the kid off of her, and he came at me, Tucker took him out, very nice shot I might add, right through the back of the kids neck, cut the sweet spot. She died seconds later, and then re-animated, she killed the other medic, Julie, well me and the lads figured out right quick, only head shot’s drop em.
Man getting out of China was a bitch and a half, we had to take out the whole village, the family that was in the hut with the boy, we never did find their corpses, probably still roaming China somewhere.
— Security Contractor working for the WHOI can’t get over how fast they all are, it’s not even fair. I’m calling zombie bullshit on that, you know? They’re not allowed to be so fast. — a horror movie buff College girl
