Sound rumbled beside the blood covered... "Hero's" as the resistance had named the five. The five began to chat away with the crowd. Earrh!, the sound of that noise made the five instantly jumped and unholstered thier guns. Aarrrg! A resistance yelled and ran down the street with the headcrab attached to his head. The five fired, bullets missed the zombie. It ran into and alley and disappeared. The five sighed and they were all thinking the same thing. Our jobs not done....

They ran down the street, moaning zombies lurched out of the alley and flailed wildly at the air. Fresh blood dripped from the long fingernails. Somone had died in that alley. The five got ready to fire. Arrh! many more zombies came out. Brendan ran and sliced one in half, the others began firing. The moaning slowed and lowered, then died away. They stepped into the alley

Lying there a bloody citizen held a book in his hand. They opened the book it was a diary. Page 1, March 11th, 2005

The usual day, combine showing up for housecheck. Sending me down to the centre for food. I hid a pipe, that i found broken, under the bed. Im thinking of leaving and going to head for one of the other 26 cities. Probably better than here..

Sucess, i made it past the rows of combine by darting behind the dumpsters. Units are on to me, but i think i can camp the night. In the morning i'll jump on to the train and ride for another city. Ill jump off at a reasonable stop. Just hope there is no rain.

This city smells foul, i'm going to hide in this abandoned coffe shop for the night. I don't feel right at all. There is blood all around, I've never been so scared before. I can see a shadow coming out of an alley. Maybe they can help me.

He got me in the arm pretty bad. That man wasn't right he had a crab creature on his head. His fingernails were long and he was moaning!, Oh the moaning! Oh there coming! I must get...
 
"Sounds like this was the city he came to. Without a gun or anything, but this pipe" Josh said. Brendan picked it up and let it clatter to the floor again. Daniel looked grim, he raised his gun and fired. It picked off another zombie lurching out of an alley. "What now?" Sam asked looking around. Matt cocked his gun, "Lets move" he said.

The five ran down the street, The five ran towards an abandoned warehouse to stock up on food. When they entered the could see nothing, except for a sliver of light a hole let in. They checked boxes and stuffed food in their bags. They stepped outside, sun was shining down on them. Then they heard more zombies. They had to get out of this city.

They ran towards the train, this one was still running a man lay dead at the control panel. Brendan climbed on top along with Daniel, Sam and Josh. The train sped away, dust flew behind it, like a curtain. Sparks began to fly from the wheel and the train began to shake. Then the train crashed, Brendan flew through the air along with the others. He landed on the sand, his face gritting. He couldn't move it hurt too much, everything went black.

Everything ached, he looked around. Then he raised himself up on one elbow, his eyes stung as the dust flew around whipping them constantly. He could see Daniel with his eyes open, same with Sam and Josh. But he could not find Matt who was driving the train, He felt his elbow give way and fell down again. His eyes closed and he began to let pain take him.

"Wake up" called a sinister voice.. "Wake up, for it would be a... Shame, if you failed while i've been spectating you". "I saw you, do what, not even Dr. Freeman himself could not do. I saw you do what men have dreamed of" "So wake up, wake up and smell the ashes". Brendan looked up, a man in a suit fixed his tie and disappeared at the call of the wind
