Intro Zombieland Novels & Stories

“You know, I’ve lived through almost seven decades, and I know a bloodline that had white hair. Moonblood.” “Moonblood?” She nods. “Yes. The first of their kind was born under a red moon. It altered their chemistry, from what I read. Their powers are similar to the moon goddess.” My heart sinks to the pit of my stomach, chest tightening. “What happened to them?” “They were wiped out.” She flips the page. “These clan of wolves didn’t live among regular wolves because they were hated, envied for their strength. We heard that regular wolves tipped off human hunters, and every single one was killed.”

“You’re looking at it, Nestie,” said Lisa, her eyebrows raised as she observed Nestie’s reaction. “What do you mean?” asked Nestie, not quite understanding. “You mean this is it?” Nestie could not quite believe that they were standing in front of a tomb. “Yes, Nestie. This is it. Carmela is buried under the weeping angel,” said Lisa. Nestie hastily took a step backward. “I thought the graveyard is next door,” he said.

Everyone's expression was blank so I was forced to explain the unique madness I had thought of. I stand in front. "Listen everyone. Since Mr. Gunford wants a theme for the anniversary, I think... The zombie theme game is good. It's a survival game just like Z-Land from Yuno." "What? It's a game?" Benedict asked as if the boredom was gone. "Yes! Like Manila Outbreak! It's a chasing game with tons of participants." "Care to tell us the details?" asked President Gunford. I explained to everyone the whole mechanics of the activity. The choice of the place where the activity will take place. Must be deserted or uninhabited, wide and many twists and turns.

I stopped in my tracks. Carlos pushed me forward. “You purchased the tickets, you watch the movie, that’s what you get for bringing me here, wife.” “Let’s watch the trailer now.” I wanted to prepare my mind. “Too late.” As soon as I was settled in my seat I turned to Zane. “Tell me this movie doesn’t involve zombie-eating babies.” “No, it doesn’t,” Zane murmured and I breathed a sigh of relief. “It involves babies turning into Zombies.”

December 1, 2050 - Colleti Research & Experimental Facility, Wolfe Creek Crater Western Australia I think my mind is going to explode any minute from now. The news of the zombie outbreak is shaking my whole system, and finding out that the crowd I saw on the ground are actually zombies did not help either. Until we reach our destination, I am as mute as an isolated room in the middle of a desert. Sean guides me to climb down the helicopter and in an instant, the idea of zombies was averted from my mind when I see where we are.

“Jordan is that way. Rave, cut us a path.” Rave, Ulric and Halee sped forward, joining their two comrades in battling the zombies. So fierce and quick was the volkaane attack that they opened a gash twenty feet wide in the zombie ranks. No longer fettered by the need to avoid the bands of black magic, Dominic, Leesa and Cali ran into the gap. Zombies fell in behind them. The humans were now surrounded by hungry zombies.

Everyone’s phone went off at once. "What?" Liam’s fiancée, Chloe, frowned, moving closer to his side. I looked down at my phone. A blood-red scale appeared on the screen. [Welcome to The Last Zombie: Final Reckoning.] [Detected: 15 members of the Sterling family.] [Objective: Eliminate all zombies. The last player standing inherits the entire family fortune.] [Current Asset Valuation: $12.7 Billion.] The living room went dead silent. "What kind of sick joke is this?" Liam tried to close the app, but the screen wouldn't budge. "Who made this?"

Melissa backs away, cradling her injured arm, and I shove the knife hilt-deep into the zombie's head. He stops struggling and goes still. I drop him to the ground and back away, trying not to gag. I've killed zombies before, recently too, but never like this. Not with someone I know lying injured and infected nearby. She's looking at me with a mixture of horror, pain, and understanding. She knows that she's infected, and she knows what has to come next, but she won't accept it.

She watched as the zombies pulled out her ruined kidney and swallowed it in one bite. In the end, she got exactly what she wanted and died in that penthouse. The penthouse was covered in a sea of blood. I sat in front of the control panel in the underground bunker and looked at the mangled remains scattered across the screen. Then, I calmly reached out to shut off the screen. More than a dozen screens went black at the same time. As they went dark, all that hatred and betrayal were swallowed by the end of the world. I survived the most dangerous and chaotic first three months of the zombie virus outbreak.

Something that could wipe humanity off the map. “The ones who survive… are becoming… something else,” I murmured under my breath, barely able to believe it. “Zombies,” I whispered. The word hung in the air. Rebecca shuddered. “I can’t believe it. It’s happening so fast. What do we do?” “We study it,” I said firmly, more to myself than to her. “I need to get to the bottom of this. We need samples, data, whatever we can get our hands on.”
