3-6-5 Hell on Earth: Day Seven

Joshua S.                                        Day: Seven

‘Anything that can make you happy’. Yeah to stave off insanity, or so I said. Even though I thought I was going to lose my mind not more than a day ago. Though I am stuck in a fortress of a house I would’ve gone insane if Laura hadn’t called.

While I am stuck here in this house full or nostalgia and sentimental objects without another human being I would go insane… Though I need to plan how to cover them and Dan… Honestly I haven’t seen a Zombie or any people out on the street…

Though to not see the latter is actually normal considering how out of the way this area is. I guess I’ll go clean my rifle and get the ammo ready... ...

Joshua S.                                        Day: Six

            Rummaging around in boxes before sighing. “So many supplies, not too many and possibly not enough but still a lot to go through alone, man I wish I could talk to someone, anyone.” Amazing how lonely one gets in the matter of a few days…

            Lying on my back I stared at the ceiling. “What is the point of surviving if I am alone?” Am I alone? “Alone…?” What if? “But then again there was that phone call yesterday… and even possibly before! Yes I’m certain there are others. Ugh it could be a recorded message.”

            I went back outside after yesterdays build. Standing on the deck I realized when it rains not only would the boxes potentially become swamps but the majority of deck could as well. Besides the obvious wetness it would or could make the deck weigh too much. Josh sighs “More work,  though I guess it’s better to get everything out of the way and then try and rest and forgot about the situation at hand… “

Joshua S.                      Day: Four

                Having started on the deck the day before I decided to go back and finish it. Slowly I moved the bags of soil one by one. “Man these things are annoying after a few” looking around I decided that the right side of the deck had more space. Again I returned to the unfinished guest rooms and gathered several  two by fours and started to work on making two boxes.

                Dragging myself with the wood  to the deck I started to hammer the pieces into boxes, taking my time to make it look decent and also not to hit my thumb with the hammer’s head. “I’m so not looking forward to going through the supplies but it all must be done…” I wonder if I am alone, I wonder if Laura and her sister are okay…  

                I finished the boxes making the wall eight inches high. Starting to cut the bags open I begin to spread the soil until it is even layered in the first box and repeating for the seconding box. I then got several seeds from the seed box and  started to plant them, it included; cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, carrots, lettuce, kale, basil, rosemary, and chives.

                “I could have sworn I heard the phone but I think that was just in my head”. What if it wasn’t just in your head?...

Joshua S.                         Day: Three

               

                Thirteen days ago several miners that were trapped in the state of Virginia due to the earthquake were released.  Of which 3 were found dead, and the other four were acting very strange. What was reported was that one of the four that was ill attacked by clawing and biting several of the rescuers present. Everything else was blacked out in the media. Despite warnings by the C.D.C. of the potential outbreak of serious viruses that could lead to epidemics causing apocalyptic scenarios and their prevention; this event is what I call the genesis of the outbreak. 

3-6-5 Hell on Earth: Day Two

Joshua S.                               Day: Two


            Twenty days ago we had a mild earthquake. By mild I mean catastrophic for the east coast. I believe it was a magnitude 7 or maybe something tuned down to a 6. Regardless it was an event that happens once every 120 years give or take a year.  The significance of the earthquake only now opens my own ignorant eyes.

            It’s only now Day 2 and some of the channels on the TV still work as others just give out an annoying noise and replay the same federal or state warning. The TV channels that still work show scenes of chaos and violence. Shambling; awkward movements by the beings that were once human assault positions of the Living. The clips always cutoff before you visually see the fate of the news men and woman reporting, the civilians barred in civilian buildings and the National Guardsmen fighting off the undead.

            At first I thought it all to be a Hoax. I mean who in their right mind would believe, could believe that what was going on was more than some people pulling a prank? Or maybe that it was some modern day translated adaptation of some radio drama or some dramatic play. As the reports on the television started to come in with the inclusion of extremely graphic photos and videos along with local, state and federal government warnings I had to accept that the current situation was real.
