1 The beginning of the end.

Kira sighed gazing down at her plate of fried chicken, fluffy mashed potatoes topped with KFC gravy and a side of a biscuit. She had no idea this would possibly be her last normal meal with her parents. Her hazel eyes slid from her plate to her mother who she looked a lot like with her platinum hair.

"Mom are you okay?" She asked a bit concerned. Her mother looked to be wet with sweat.

"Dad?" She asked as she turned her attention on her father who also was covered in sweat. Her only response from both of them was a simple moan. Kira was fully freaking out on the inside now but wasn't quiet showing it just yet.

"Guys this isn't funny anymore knock it off!" She said in a squeak thinking her parents were just playing with her. She watched them for a moment longer before she got up and started to wave her hands in-front of there now glassy eyes. Glossy eyes as if all the life they had once held was long gone. With no response from either of them, Kira grabbed the phone and started to dial 911 but it just kept ringing as her parents started to cough up blood and bleed from their ears. Kira kept trying to get a hold of the cops or someone who could help her parents. However, it had already been to late for her parents... for them , for anyone over the age of eighteen.

She sobbed when they fell over dead. Kira frantically check pulses even tried cpr. Well all but putting her lips on her mother's lips. At her starting to perform cpr on her mother she was grabbed by her mother and her mother tried to bite her! Yes tried to bite her!

"Mom!" Kira screamed tears streaming down her cheeks. Her father just moaned the same as her mother and tried to attack her. Kira shoved them away form her as they continued to try and bite her. Kira couldn't think straight and that's what made her do what she did next. Kira ran up the steps to her room. Her parents slow behind her. She could hear them moaning. Zombies? She thought no can't be! Kira shut her bedroom, door and shoved her dresser in front of the door to keep them out as she kept trying to get ahold of 911.

Kira's phone finally was patched threw and she was given this automated message " emergency services are currently down! Please try again later" Kira cursed and hung up now hearing her parents moan and press against her bedroom door that wasn't budging. She called her friend Tasha. Just getting rings till her friend picked up. " yeah?" Tasha asked. "Tasha! Are your parents acting weird at all?" Tasha laughed " their parents they always act weird wait... " she said as Kira could hear a moan on Tasha's end of the line. Tasha answered Kira "ah they aren't talking and keep coming at me! It's like their not my parents anymore!" She said as Tasha screamed. "Tasha! " Kira yelled and heard a struggle and the ultimate death of her friend at her own parents hands. Kira curled up beside the dresser sobbing for her loss of her friend. She didn't know anyone else. Yeah her school mates but she wasn't close to any of them she was kind of a shy loner. she could hear the screams and the commotion of everything outside as more kids where falling victim to parents, family, or baby sitters.

It was a long night she didn't sleep, no one did night one. The screams and moans seemed to stop at dawn... dawn a new day! A new world.
