My Last Days

Day 1: Nothing has changed in the last couple days. This flu is still going around. More and more people have been getting sick. Some people have been talking and saying that it’s all part of something bigger, but that’s just talk.

Day 3: People are starting to get sicker. Doctors say it’s just a really bad flu. I’m not so sure anymore. It’s spreading fast for just the flu. Maybe people where right…

Day 5: This isn’t just the flu! It’s something more. Something WORSE!! People are starting to disappear. They get sick and then disappear! What’s happening?!!?

Day 8: Zombies!! ALL ZOMBIES!! Everyone! They were all sick; it’s an epidemic, now they are something that you can’t describe besides using the word zombie! It starts as flu like symptoms but then it changes. The eyes of the infected get a yellowish blue tint. Hideous red bumps pop up all around the mouth. So far that’s all we know…

Day 9: They are calling it the “Zombie virus” They say it starts as a cold but them turns you into something else, something…. Unhuman… something evil…

Day 11: I saw it!! I saw THEM!! This time with my own eyes! They said it would never get to us! LIES! They’re here! They look like something out of a horror movie. The yellow blue eyes, red bumps around the mouth... what happened to them…

Day 12: How did this happen. They said it was only the flu!

Day 14: Last night was the first time I had to kill. How can I even call it killing when they aren’t even alive to begin with…?

Day 17: My neighbor Rob used to work as a biologist. He said that the only way he can describe it is like Cholera. He said the symptoms are similar.  Profuse watery diarrhea, vomiting, and leg cramps, rapid loss of body fluids leads to dehydration and shock. Without treatment, death can occur within hours. Except they don’t die… not really anyway…

Day 19: Rob made me help him. I didn’t want too but he made me… He said we need to study and learn what we are up against. He made me help me get a body. I didn’t want to help…

Day 20: I’m scared, now more than ever. Rob used the body to try and find out what’s wrong with it. He’s never seen anything like it.

Day 22: It’s some kind of virus but we don’t know what. He said it’s like nothing he’s ever seen before in his life. He said it seems like a mix of different things… but how?

Day 23: He said it could be a bacteriophage. He said it means it’s a special type of virus that only infects bacteria. How is all this even possible… What is happening to all these people…? Nothing makes sense…

Day 25: Rob left yesterday and hasn’t come back yet. What if he got sick? What would happen to me and his wife? He was the only hope we had…

Day26: Jessica said we should go through his papers and see what he hasn’t been telling us. That way we know what we are in for in case he doesn’t come back. We found something… He said it was manmade… That it could ONLY have been manmade… Someone made this… And let it free… Who would do this!?! Why would anyone make this horrible thing!!!??!

Day 27: What if he was right? What if someone made this? Robs research said that it’s a manmade virus. But he’s still not sure what it was made from. He wrote that because of the speed the virus is moving that it would be hard to try and find a cure.

Day 29: We had to leave. They came after us. We heard them in the streets, they started going into the house. We couldn’t stay any longer. But where would we go?

Day 30: Lets recap: The “zombie virus” started 30 days ago. It’s a mixture of multiple, virus. It turns people into “zombies”. Starts as flu symptoms; vomiting, rapid loss of body fluids leading to dehydration, fever, cough. Then the eyes turn yellow blue, red bumps around the mouth. Still tons of questions we need answered. How is it transmitted? Is there a cure? Can we stop it?

Day 33: I went back threw robs papers and found something else. He said it might be something called Lytic. He didn’t say much about it, only that it kills quickly… great…

Day 38: He’s alive!!! Rob is alive! He found us hiding out in a little house on the edge on town. He said he knows everything!

Day 39: After learning about the “zombie virus” he said that he knew who made it and he had to go find him. His name was Luke Wright. He and Rob worked together a long time ago. Luke was always so obsessed with trying to create something great. Wanting to try and make new stands of virus, trying to make them more deadly. And he did. He finally made something worth showing the world…

Day 40: He tried for years making something that would make him legendary. But nothing worked until one day he deiced to try and mix different bacteria and virus to make something that on one had ever created before. Something that didn’t have a cure…

Day 41: He let his “creation” out into the water supply. That’s why we have yet to get sick; we have only been drinking from sealed bottle water. That’s that only reason we are still alive.

Day 42: Let’s recap: The “zombie virus” started 42 days ago. It’s a mixture of multiple, virus. It turns people into “zombies”. Starts as flu symptoms; vomiting, rapid loss of body fluids leading to dehydration, fever, cough. Then yellow blue eyes and red bumps around the mouth. Manmade by Luke Wright and so far has no cure. Being transmitted though the water supply.

Day 43: As we were moving to try and find a new safe place we found more bodies on the side of the road. Rob made us get out and take them with us so that we can hopefully find a cure. Maybe that wasn’t such a good idea…

Day 45: Rob knows exactly what it is! It isn’t a mixture of bacteria and virus. It’s just a mixture of different virus. The way that Luke made it was to make it seem that the virus was really more complicated than it really is! But Rob found it out. Someday soon we thinks he can HOPEFULLY fine some sort of cure or at least find a way to weaken it.

Day 47: He says he’s getting close to a Vaccine. Maybe this nightmare is almost over.

Day 49: Yesterday I started to feel sort of light headed. I thought it was from the lack of water since we have been low of water bottles. Now I have a fever and worried that I might have somehow gotten sick.  But how could that be possible? I’ve only been drinking from the water bottles? Maybe it’s not just in the water…?

Day 50: I’m sick… I know it. I don’t know how but I know that I am…  Maybe I drank some bad water, maybe it was something in the food… But I guess it doesn’t even matter anymore…
