It's been a year since the zombie outbreak began and spread worldwide, the government shut down, all the military bases are gone, and safe base? all of them got destroyed, family friends. Everyone is gone. It's just you and millions of zombies.
What's the point of living then? I'm gonna die anyway, right? so why should I suffer? do I deserve this? why... why? if God is real, then please save me, I...
...I don't want this anymore.
As the sunlight struck on my face, I woke up from the dream, the dream when I was still hopeless, if you're gonna ask me, am I now happy? do I have hope? of course not, that's not possible here, this zombie apocalypse thing.
I started to eat my breakfast before heading out. Eating breakfast is important because if you won't eat, you can't run from them because of exhaustion.
"Only 6 canned, huh..." I don't have that much food anymore, cities got overwhelmed by them, so are the towns, I don't even know where am I supposed to go now, I'm just finding food on my own, is there even some food left? can I really survive this now?
After finishing my breakfast, I took my backpack and my rifle and went out, venturing the unknown, as I walked to the empty road with only broken cars, checking if some would still work or is there still something useful to use.
To my luck, I found a small solar panel, "Lucky," I said out of nowhere. As I continued to walk to the empty road, hours passed, and I started to see some houses nearby, and that's where I start to walk off road and start to be careful, using my gun's scope to look around, everything seems to be cleared there's no zombies in sight.
I started approaching the house in front of me, with speed and stealth. I got close to the house, and the house was locked, so I forced my way in lock picking the door knob, I successfully unlocked the door and went inside, like a pro I immediately aimed on front, left, right, looking every corner.
Checked evey rooms on the first floor, clear, as I make my way up to the second floor a zombie suddenly appeared jumping on me while I was still on the stairs, we both fell downstairs, aggressive and dangerous I keep the zombies head up, holding his forehead to not bite me, strangling to hold it I quickly took my knife that are on my waist and stab it on it's head.
As I breathed heavily and stood up picking my rifle as dozens of zombies from the second floor rushing towards me, running as fast as they could, I began to shoot them on the head one by one, finally shot the last one.
I didn't let my guard off still, and I slowly went my way upstairs. There were still some zombies, I killed them all, every single one of them, even childrens I killed a whole family of zombies.
I quickly checked every room, and everything was clear. I locked the door I went in, using my binocular. I checked the nearby houses, and it looks like I hit the jackpot this time, this houses here looks deserted.
I began to scavenge everything that would help me to survive on the house I'm in, canned foods, water, batteries, medicines, clothes that fit me, Multi-tool, duct tape, and basic tools for repairs and crafting, Matches, lighters, or fire-starting tools, Soap, toiletries, and sanitation items and Bag.
After taking everything from the house, I left all my items at least 500 meters away from here, an escape route if ever a horde would appear. I would just run and take my backpack with me. Now that I'm moving lightly, I can now easily kill zombies.
As I went house to house, killing zombies stealthily, as long as they were not in groups, killing these zombies are easy. Just take them one by one. My rifle has silencer on it, so the zombies didn't notice me earlier when I killed the zombies on the first house I went in.
House every house, killing zombies one after another, I didn't notice the time, it's going to get dark, and I successfully cleared 10 houses, though there are still 50 more I needed some rest, It looks like I'm in a village near the countryside according to the map I found from one of the house, while it's still 6 pm I immediately went to sleep on one of the houses I cleared, door locked and an easy escape route, I sleep peacefully with my rifle beside me.
As usual, I wake up early. I did my workout to keep me in shape. When the sun rose up, I began to do the same I did yesterday, 5 days later, I successfully cleared the whole village.
I also found a small truck that is still working, should I... settle here?
