2020, such an imaginitive year.

Intro. “Rabies has had a strange effect on humans nowadays,” the man on the small television screen said. “Once the humans die they rise again, as green skinned, human eating machines. These have been known as Zombies. Now these ‘Zombies’ have their own virus, one bite, and in three days from being bitten you will be a zombie yourself.” Many people shut off this report. The zombie attacks had been minor, and as far as they could tell, it wasn’t that bad. Sure, another person had been turned into a zombie. Three zombies died when one was turned. It’s the year 2020, medicine, and weapons, are the only things that have evolved since 2009. The zombie problem started in April, when scientists came out with “the cure for cancer.” They used another virus, rabies, to fight off cancer. This worked for a few weeks. Then they started showing signs of dying, for some unseen reason. When they were looked at it, it looks like both the cancer, and rabies were attacking the brain. This caused the victim to slowly die. Painfully. The first time someone had risen as a zombie was in early May. It was a mother, whom had three kids, and a loving husband. When they saw her roaming through the streets, they were overjoyed. They wrapped their arms around the mother, but when she bit into their skulls, they were rather unhappy. Two of the children died right away. The father ran with the third child. The youngest child. This youngest child had been bitten on the arm. Three days after being bitten, she was a monster like her mother. It was heartbreaking, but the father fired on his own eight year old daughter. Then the government was alerted when cases of Zombies were rising in several cities across America. Nothing wrong, “This is an isolated incident.” All over the country they heard this. These towns started getting bad, out of hand. So they simply isolated them from the rest of America. A few people managed to get out, and contaminated the other towns. By late August all of America had been overrun by zombies. Some fled to other countries, hoping for a cure. Of course other countries were trying to avoid this, and didn’t want to have to develop a cure. Sure enough a chain reaction was started. Our story is in America. A few survivors just hide, hoping not to die. Some try to wipe the earth clean, or at least just a single town, of the zombies. Then there are those, whom are looking for a cure, that can be spread through the air. There is an injection, they made it in the hospitals when the virus first started taking hold of some towns. This injection can add four more days of life to the infected person. You are either a zombie, infected, or a survivor. Will you find a cure, or hide? Rules. 1.) No godly, super awesome fighter characters. No fun. 2.) No over powered guys, who have like a thousand weapons. Not fun either. 3.) No magic, just saying, in case SOMEONE got an idea. 4.) You can play a zombie right off the bat, yeah, cool! 5.) You can play two characters if you wish, one must be a zombie though. 6.) If your bite isn’t deadly, then you live for three days. 7.) Sure it’s like a repeat of six, but no immunity to the bite. 8.) Zombie relationships are allowed. Just keep it realistic. Numberless Rule: If your character dies, you can make another. Race Descriptions. Survivor: A normal human, but is running from the zombies. They have learned how to survive well enough. It is hard, They generally live with other survivors, or are heartbroken for loss. If they live alone, chances are that they have gone insane. This is normal, and they could prove more dangerous then the zombies if they’ve gone crazy. Infected: This person has been bitten by a zombie. This bite was not enough to kill them, so they lived on. They normally refuse the fact that they are soon to become a zombie, and end up killing other survivors when they turn into a zombie three days later in the middle of the night. It’s just how it goes. They may also be in the search fore a cure, if this is the case they either travel in a group, or alone. Zombie: Someone who has fallen victim to the virus. They have died, they normally rise five to ten minutes after they die. Once they rise they contain little to no personality from who they were in life. They are rotting as the walk, and have bad motor, and physical skills. If they do retain personality, it’s just tiny fragments of memory, familiar faces. They still don’t avoid killing anyone. They want to eat, they will eat any living thing. They don’t stop at one bite, they keep going until even the bones are gone. Profiles. For a survivor: Name: Age: Weapons: Appearance: Insane?: History: Personality: Other: For the infected: Name: Age: Weapons: Appearance: Insane: How were they infected: Personality: Other: Zombie: Name: Age: Race: Appearance: (during life of course) History: (during life) Other: My profiles. Name: Daniel Witman Age: 26 Weapons: An electrified staff Appearance: Daniel Witman Insane?: No History: He lost his sister when the zombie attacks started. He was heartbroken. And he swore revenge. He learned staves as a hobby not long before the attacks, and he simply picked up a staff that wasn’t for training. He now is part of a small group of survivors, in search of the cure. Personality: Nice when you get through all the sadness, mildly depressed, and serious when it comes to zombies. Other: Up for love, and any kind of friendship, though he might avoid you. Name: Jenna Lorence Age: 16 Weapons: A dull letter opener. Appearance: Jenna Lorence Insane: No, but in denial. How were they infected: All she had to defend herself was a dull letter opener, and she couldn’t get her hands on something else, something better. So she got to close to the head of a zombie three hours ago, she fled, and won’t accept the fact that she was bitten. She joined a group of survivors, in search of the cure. She keeps her hand bandaged at all times. Personality: Loving, distant, and happy when she doesn’t think about her bite. Other: Up for love, but um, plan on loving a zombie soon. When there are two profiles posted we'll start, I'll tell you when profiles close.

**Is this thing dead? D:**

Just another quack spouting psychobabble.

Berlin - Survivor

I looked back into the room below me and saw a turmoil of fighting humans and infected. A quick decision formed in my mind and I took off onto a row of roofs, jumping them as fast as I could. Far below me were hordes of zombies, following as best as they could on the ground.
Far ahead I saw the sun setting into the blood-red horizon. I needed to hide quickly.
Crash!
Make that now.
"Get out of here!" Numie screamed at me. "There's two of us in here, you know!"
Suddenly I spotted a warehouse that looked like a good place to wait for the night to blow over. The windows were boarded up and the door looked like some huge hydraulic deal, so there were probably other survivors there.
"Just make it there," I thought to myself. "Just there."

This isn't right, why should such a great storybook die? It makes me afraid that my storybook isn't gonna live long: it's already showed signs of slowing down, heck, it hasn't even started! *grabs storybook protectively and screams hysterically*
But I guess everything ends anyways.
Sorry, Evey.
