I can't believe what I was seeing. The man's head was decapitated but he was moving his eyes and face as if he was alive. This could only mean one thing.
"What the hell is he?" asked Christie.
"I think he's a zombie," I said.
" A what?" she asked in confusion.
"A zombie you know creatures of the undead monster who eat flesh stuff like that you see in movies and video games"
"Hmm!" she was giving me a look.
"Hey, I played zombie games and watched zombie movies and series with my friend Niam."
"No, I was just surprised that you would know something like that"
" What do you think I am a 20th century American Jock who thinks these types of things are lame"
"I can't believe what I am seeing," she said.
Yeah, I know that she must be shocked by what we were seeing. Something like this should only exist in fantasy don't we have enough problems in reality. Let's just hope there is only one.
We looked around the place we found and opened a door to the basement, it smelled horrible we covered our faces and went down and saw something beyond horrifying chopped bodies of people. So I was right either that man was a zombie or a cannibal. Christie immediately run outside and puked of course she would get sick from something like this even I felt like puking but I hold it in because I didn't want to lose my energy.
I went inside and checked around and managed to found 2 crossbows and lots of arrows made of wood these arrows looked as if they were handcrafted by someone.
I looked in the kitchen and found some meat by the looks of it, it looked like deer meat. I immediately cooked it and then brought christie to eat with me.
"I can't believe you cooked"
"Don't worry it's deer meat we can eat this"
"How can you tell?"
"Woman I lived in a forest once okay I know which meat is which and I have eaten a lot of deer"
"Okay I trust you" she sat down and ate the food I made. After we were done I give her a crossbow.
"We can't stay here let's move"
"Right"
I packed some food and we left the place as we moved forward we arrived at a small town.
"Look it's a town " We looked at the sign this town was called Summersisle.
After what we encountered I was cautious of the town's people what if they turned out to be the same thing as that man.
"Christie I have a bad feeling about this place"
"What do you mean?"
"You remember that guy right what if the town's people are also Undeads"
"If that's true then what should we do"
"I can climb and make it to the roof to look from above"
"You can do that."
"Yeah" I climbed and made it to the roof and looked the town was mostly empty because people were gathered at one place. I went down to christie.
"So what did you see?" she asked me.
"For some reason, those people are gathered at one place"
"Do you think we should check it out?"
"Yes I think we should but we should be careful"
We went where the people were gathered to check what was happening. As we got near that place I stopped christie and said
"Wait! first, let me see what's happening"
"Okay be careful"
"Stay cautious of your surrounding and don't let your guard down"
"Alright"
I climbed again and looked from the roof and saw something very horrifying again. The town's people were the same as that man and they were feasting on the bodies of people. There were certain people ordering the town's people as if they were leaders dressed in black robes and wearing a Capra mask as if they were from some cult who worship the devil. All of them took off their mask. I saw their face and I was horrified. They were so damn ugly, and they looked kinda like those cannibals from that slasher horror movie "Wrong turn" one looked like Three Finger, one looked like Sawtooth and one looked like One Eye. Damn, why the hell do I have to encounter fictional characters in real life. I saw the people they were feasting and I noticed that they were those people who were kidnapped alongside me maybe they also came to this town and fell victim to those people.
One of them noticed me on the roof and pointed at me while shouting.
"Oh shit they saw me"
I ran towards Christie and said "Run Christie"
I said to her and we started running away from them.
"Where should we run off to"
"The forest the town's not safe all of them are zombies"
We ran into the forest while moving somehow I was able to strangely see some things as if they were glowing. My instincts told me to avoid the glowing after running for hours we managed to lose them. I looked around and saw one of the glowing things went to check it out. It turns out to be a bear trap those villagers must have placed traps around the forest to capture people so they can devour them. I was feeling strange how was I able to tell this but I was glad I was able to do it or else we would have been dead meat. I took the bear trap with me and went to sit next to Christie.
Christie asks me "Ali tell me what happened there?"
I explained everything to Christie about what happened there. She was terrified after hearing what I said. We continue to move on until we found a cabin in the forest near a lake, I looked to see if there were any traps as we were walking towards it I suddenly felt dizzy and in a few moments I passed out.
