Last nights thunderstorm was rather strange - a lot of thunder, purple clouds, but not a hint of rain. The air feels somewhat metallic today, and some of the more sensible people even feel sick. So today, everyone went to Billies, to start the inevitable chit-chat, scientific nonsense and mountain folk superstition about the storm. Dr. Derek Snyder from the lab, Dr. Metzgers assistant, is sitting in a corner, sipping his coffee. He is just back from a vacation and everyone avoids him because he likes to show terribly boring pictures of him fishing. First it sounds like a car having problems with its brakes, then most guest realize it's something bigger. As the more anxious go to the street, they see one of the white Liddbergen Labs trucks, swerving from side to side, as if it has a flat tire or the driver is drunk. As is turns into the marketplace it rams a letterbox , spilling letters and newspapers everyone, then it squeeches to a halt on the marketplace, leaving black brake-stains and an eerie silence. As some people catiously approach the truck, it's back doors slam open. Those who look inside start to gag - People, wounded and dead, are piled up there, some screaming, most of them just wriggling in silent pain. One of them, a far to young boy in a lab coat, his black hair burnt, one eye a bloody hole, booth hand beaten and broken, masses of flesh and muscles and bones, tries to crawl out of the car. "Stay away - he did it- oh my god, the sithspiter did..." He drops to the ground, rolling from the car onto the ground. He lies there, silently. Patricia, Billies waitress, knees besides him and feels for a pulse. "He's dead!" That's when the dead guy in the lab suit sits up and bites her ear off. The other people in the car also slowy slid or climb out, moving awkwardly towards the stunned townspeople.

Kyle Ran over to the waitress. "what The fu.ck did you do?" He yelled at the 'Man.'He punched the man in the face and then pulled up the Waitress. "You'll be ok I think." He said to her, grabbing his handkerchief from his pocket. (unused) And he put it on her ear. "Let's go" he said as People started running from the bar. Kyle brought the woman to his car. "I'm going to take you to the hospital." He said as he turned the car on. As he did this one of the zombies hobbled over and fell on the hood of his car. He began smashing his fists on the window. "Get off my car." Kyle yelled as he punched the gas of his '65 Mustang. The man, or what was left of him, was run over and had a new tire mark across his chest. They would go to the hospital now, hopefully someone there would know what was going on, and wouldn't be like these...Zombies.

Cristanna was in her car. Passing through the town. She was headed north, her husbend wa supposed to be in the hospital of Braxton Hill, he had an accident in the mine and it seemed he was facing surgery. She was talking on the phone with her father. She was doing an internship in her father's firm and was handling the case of a serial killer.
- "No dad, I think he is guilty but I'm not there to prove that, we were hired to prove his innocence even if there is nothing inocent about him..............ok when after I see Rick I'll call you back ok? Bye" - Cristanna ended her call and put her cellphone in her purse and when she looked again at the road a truck came passed her and hit the front of her car making her spin for a moment, fortunately she was ok. The car's airbag popped to protect her, she got out of the car slowly and screamed at the truck's driver.
- "Hey are you blind?!" - She screamed but there was no answer, she then looked at the man and saw he was unconcious and not breathing. The hospital was a few yards away so she ran to the hospital and called for attention for the man, a team of doctors and nurses ran to the truck and found a big stain of blood on the driver's seat but no driver.
- "He was here I swear, he couldn't have gone far" - Cristanna said and the doctors began looking, they found the man in an alley on his knees and he looked as if he was eating something, the doctors approached the man and turned him around to reveal a disgusting sight. The man had a cat that had been run over and he was eating it, his whole mouth drenched in blood. Cristanna and other nurses had to turn around and vomit by the gruesome scene, then the man stood up and attacked a doctor. Cristanna left running to the hospital and see if her husband was there.

Joshua was part of the crowd in the diner, and he ran out with everyone else. When the people began getting out of the car and staggering towards to crowd a lot of people were asking them if they were alright. Joshua knew they weren't, he had seen people and animals, both dead and alive, and looked into their eyes. The eyes of these people were neither the bright eyes of the living or the cloudy eyes of the dead, they were somewhere in between. Joshua backed slowly away, then turned and ran towards his car. He got in and started the engine and as he turned onto the road in front of the diner he saw a horrible sight. The crowd outside of the diner was gone, they had turned into a fleeing mob, and an unlucky few of them who had gotten to close to the people now lay on the sidewalk being eaten!

Kyle ha noticed a change in the girl as he was driving. She continuously scratched her ear and she kept complaining of being hungry. Not a good sign. When she attacked him and tried to bite his hand that was an even worse sign. "What the Hell are you doing." he yelled, The car still driving. Then it stoppped, The car had hit something. It threw the zombie off balance enough so that he could get out and run. He ran off into the blackness not knowing where he could go. Then he noticed a small building and ran inside. "What is this place?" he asked, knowing that no one was there to answer.

"I don't know" a low voice answered. I sounded weak and came from a dark corner. The shadowy figure of a young man, sitting at a wall was barely visible. "I am Doctor Lambert, Doctor Metzgers assistant. Listen: We have to get out of this place...Before the authorities act. They know what Metzger was up to...They'll do everything to stop him. So must we, but they, they'll...kill us all...as will those...zombies...or the other things...oh my god, those other things..." Suddenly, a TV in the corner flashed on. It was the only functional electrical device, as the city seemed to have lost power. Dr. Metzgers face appeared on screen. He was wearing a clean labsuit and looked rather happy. "There you are, Lambert. Oh, and an unfortunate witness. You will be dealt with." The screen flashed off. There was no hint at how this could have been pulled of, and Kyle's attention was distracted as Lambert suddenly screamed: "Oh my god, he did it! He used it! Get out of here, he'll send one of the bugs, just get out of here, please, oh dear lord..." The air in the dark room took a bluish color and it suddenly smelled of oil. Then, almost comically, a hound-sized bug seemingly popped into existence. It's legs made clacking noised as it moved towards the screaming Lambert.

Kyle ran from the house. "I've gotta get out of here." He ran towards the hospital. "There's bound to be people there." The beetle thing couldnt get him there. and there might be weapons. He ran in the door and ran straight into the back of a lady, only a little older than him.

Cristanna almost fell to the floor and looked back at the young man. She could tell something had scared him and she had just witnessed one of the most disgusting things in her life so she could understand.
- "Are you okay?" - She asked.

"I...Beetle...Man...Dead." He couldnt say it. How would he explain to someone that a gigantic beetle just ate a man? He stood up and looked at her. "Wow." he said softly. "She's beautiful." Crap! did he just say that out loud. he blushed and walked off down a hallway, looking for guns. "We're gonna need guns. Come with me."

Cristanna looked puzzled and for a moment there disregarded his early comments.
- "Wait, this is a hospital. There are no guns here and besides I can't leave" - Cristanna said.

- "Yes I saw one but I can't leave without my husband" - Cristanna said and looked away for a moment - "He had surgery two days ago and I came here because they said I could pick him up".

"Go get him and I'll meet you back here with guns."Kyle walked off imnto the hallway. He saw a room and in it he saw a rifle haging on the wall. "Must've liked his trophy hunts huh??" He grabbed the rifle and as much ammo as possible. he continued looking but only found one pistol and a few clips, one was empty. "This wasn't a total bust." He walked back to the hall and waited for the woman to return.

Cristanna went to look for her husband but when she as inside his room she found the room was empty and there were spots of blood on the bed and she turned around and looked for him in the other rooms but found no one. She then walked to the hall to meet the young man and heard a noise, she slowly turned around and saw her husband but just when she was about to give him a hug he tried to bite her. She pushed him hard against the wall and screamed running to Kyle and her husband was trying to get to her.
- "Oh my god not him" - Cristanna said hiding behind Kyle.

Kyle pulled out his pistol. "I'm sorry." he shot the man in the face. The twice dead man fell to the ground and stopped moving, blood poured out of the opening left from the gunshot. "I'm so sorry." He turned to The woman. "What is your name?" He put his arms around her and stood there with her.

Suddenly, the hospitals announcing sytems gave a screech. Then a voice said: "Interesting." The it went silent again. To Kyle, the voice had sounded familiar. A doctor appaeared from a room, one of his arms bloody. "Hey, you two, are you okay?"

Joshua drove as fast as possible to his home on the edge of town. He ran through the front door, "Dad! Dad! Where are you?" Wait, he was at the museum in the next town down the mountain, Joshua quickly went to the gun safe in the basement and took five trips of guns and ammo to the car. Then he filled a few bags with food and took off back towards town. He had two pistols and a rifle int he seat next to him as he drove through town, it was a mess. In the hour he had been gone the madness had spread through half of town, people or....zombies walked slowly around the town, looking for things to eat, occasionally they would find a body on the street and eat for a while, then they would be off again. Always hungry, always vicious. Joshua shuddered as he pulled to a stop at the back door of the hospital; he grabbed the two pistols and a pocketful of clips and ran through the hospital door.
Joshua slowed down when he entered the hospital, it appeared to be abandoned. "Good," Joshua thought, "OK, now which room do they keep the basic medical supplies in?" He heard a scream then a gunshot, it sounded like they came from just down the hall. Joshua sneaked up to the corner of the hallway and started to peak around, but he bumped a medical cart and it rolled out into the hallway and crashed into the opposite wall. Joshua winced as a metal pan fell off of the cart and landed with a clang on the floor. So much for quietly checking out what was going on.

The doctor limped past the confused two others and towards Joshua. Josh knew him, as he was the town only emergency surgeon and had often take care of the young boy. "Well, well, if it isn't young Joshua. You okay, boy?" Dr. Havelock held out a bloodied hand to help him up. Suddenly, everyone's cell phone rang,and every phone in the offices and all the emergency phones. It was a mish-mash of rings, drings and ring-tone ranging from 'La Chucarcha' to 'Hips don't lie'.

Joshua shouted over the ring of the telphones, "I'm fine Dr. Havelock, the question is are YOU okay? And what is with the telephone system?"
Joshua walked over to a receptionist's desk and picked up a ringing phone, "Hello? Is anyone there?"
