Casting Call: 27 Days Left...


It has been two months since the outbreak that destroyed the town of Cabot Creek began. Two months since my life had any semblance of normalcy. I live each day with the single hope that someday there will be a cure. Someday the world will recover from this. Someday it’ll all get better…


They control the city now. The dead outnumber the living. A plague that’s reached as far as Texas. Their endless drawling has become background music to life. The rotting stench of death they carry with them is pervasive. It’s everywhere. There is no escaping it…or them. This is life now.


I’ve forgotten what it’s like to live without fear; fear of the unknown, fear of every sound I hear, fear of the light, fear of the dark but most of all, fear of becoming one of them. I’ve watched countless friends, family and neighbors fall one-by-one to the mindlessly feasting hordes of zombies that now walk the streets. I’ve seen whole neighborhoods burn, historic buildings demolished and dozens of planes fall out of the sky. 


It came out of nowhere. No one was prepared. Nothing could have predicted the tragedies that would occur. The overwhelming and catastrophic event that devastated the nation forever making it unsafe to even step outside…or trust.


Neighbors and friends once seen as allies and confidantes have now become your worst enemies. The only thing that keeps me moving into the next day is the single hope that someday there will be a cure. Someday the world will recover. Someday…


Prepare yourselves. The world as you know it is over.

Day 31: Aftermath

**Warning: Picture heavy. Um...oh and it’s long. (Info dump?)**


It was the gunshots—not the nightmare—that woke her.

Veronica had slept long past it, though not without considerable effort. Her sheets were in a ball around her feet, well below the heavy comforter, and Dominic’s pillow was between her thighs. Raising her head, she inspected the room she was in, barely blinking at the sound of more gunfire.

Day 30: No Return


“Hey has anyone seen Fadil?” Liz asked, glancing around the room. Richard screamed and the sound of falling objects exploded from the back room.

“Shit,” Matthew cussed and quickly rushed to the stock room. The door wouldn’t budge. Something had fallen and was blocking it shut. “Give me a hand here,” he said. Josh and Dominic stepped forward and together, the three men forced the door open.

Day 29: Loose Ends


“Looks like we’re not the only ones under attacked,” Troy said, motioning towards the bodies. “This place got wrecked!”

Matthew continued up the stairs, stepping over blood and detached limbs. “Hey! Is there anybody in there? Let us in,” he shouted, banging the shutters fiercely, hoping to get the attention of someone inside.

An odd humming sound was coming from behind them and Natalie glanced back over her shoulder. At least two dozen zombies were heading their way, groaning and hissing as they gathered closer. “Oh my god, they’re coming.”

“Open the door!” Matthew shouted again with Troy and Natalie joining in. The metal began to shake and pretty soon the three of them were staring blankly at a large group of people inside the store. Moving Natalie into the door first, Matthew turned and fired off a couple rounds at the incoming group. Three zombies fell before he jumped backwards inside the store and watched the shutters fall into place. “Thank you,” he said, as JC helped him stand. “The world’s gone to shit. It’s a madhouse out there.”
