Suzy’s Strange Saga

You are awakened by a loud explosion, a close one. One so close in fact that the force of it causes you to roll off your bed.

“Shit!” you exclaim as you hit the floor, still tired, but very much awake. You don’t know what time it is, but you know you haven’t been asleep very long.

You grab your pistol, which is nearby, and the smell of gunpowder, smoke and fire are immediately starting to become very strong.

You exit your room and see that your barricade of the front facing windows has been destroyed along with that portion of the house. Furniture is in pieces and some of it is burning. That isn’t all that is in pieces however. You see the remains of several bodies. One bloody legs looks like it was wearing a military outfit, a couple of the other parts are of the more civilian persuasion.

You can only guess this might’ve been a soldier desperately trying to escape and blew himself up either on purpose or accidently in an attempt to kill the rabid things after him.

You can’t make out everything from where you’re standing, but the streets are swarming with hordes of those things. It would appear a “second wave” has popped up and is strong enough to overwhelm the military here.

Even Julie has woken up.

“Holy shit Suzy! What the fuck…” Julie says from above.
“Julie get whatever…”
“SUZY LOOK OUT!” Julie screams.

You react just in time to shoot one of those rabid fuckers twice in the chest. He goes down and doesn’t get back up, but that’s of little help since you’ve now just attracted even more of them and they’re running in your direction.

“Julie climb out one the upstairs windows!” you shout, firing at two more rabid before running away yourself. Julie immediately runs back into her bedroom.

You’d follow her, but the burning debris makes it difficult and your own distance to the stairs isn’t close enough for you to get there before more rabid come gibbering in.

You instead head for the backdoor and fire off the remainder of your bullets as you run. You might’ve actually managed to make out had the back door not been barricaded with the refrigerator.

You don’t even get to open the back door before you’re roughly pulled backwards and you feel a set of teeth sinking shoulder. This is soon followed by more teeth and your screams.
