It was four days away from Halloween, when I was sitting on my couch. For some reason I was watching the news. There was a breaking news title and I turned up the volume. It said something about a deadly sickness going around the state that kills you and you come back to life as a "walking dead". It also said something about them attacking you and giving you that disease.

Later that day, I went over to my friend Nathan's house. We mostly just played video games and watched t.v. I stayed for supper and than I decided to head home. As I walked the 1 km to my house, I thought about how ridiculous it would be if there was actually dead people roaming around the streets. Just then, I heard a weird noise, as if someone was screaming for their life. I walked toward where I heard it the first time and it started up again. Than, I heard a groan, it got louder and louder and a shadow started to come close to me. "Um, hello?" I said to the being, I got no answer. "Dude, why are you making that noise, It's weird!" As it continued to get closer, all I was thinking about is zombies and the news article. The strange being walked out of the darkness, into the moonlight. "Holy SHIT!" I screamed " WHAT ARE YOU?!"

I ran as fast as I could in the other direction, blood rushing through my veins faster than ever, a thousand thoughts running through my head. There were two more zombies blocking the road In front of me, so I booked it down an alley. It was a DEAD END!!! I didn't know what to do, climb the 10 foot tall fence into some strangers yard, or get killed by a beast. I jumped to grab the top of the fence, not tall enough. The beings got closer and closer every second. I tried climbing it, but I fell off. "Oh my GOD!" I screamed and...
