"It's going to explode!"

There was no warning when the outbreak which brought the dead back to life hit. It started out like any other day with people going to work, or to school. They had no idea that this day would be for many their last day on Earth. As the living that is. The outbreak which created what would be called 'Walkers' had no clear starting point. It was everywhere. The recently deceased suddenly rose and began attacking the living. Feeding on their warm flesh and creating more walkers. Those who weren't ripped apart by the attacking zombies, were themselves turned into blood thirsty ghouls. A person could bleed out in just minutes and become a walker in a matter of seconds. However, there were some who survived with just a bite wound. But in time they would die from the infection and become a zombie. There was no antibiotic that could stop this infection. Most people died within hours of being bitten. Doctor's were powerless to help those in dire need. Hospitals all over the nation became swamped with the injured who soon turned into monsters. It didn't take long for society as we know it to breakdown. With in days everything was pure chaos. People began looking out for themselves when it was clear that the Government wasn't coming to save them. Nothing had been heard from Washington D.C. since the emergency broadcast system was activated. Sure there were local rescue stations which had been set up. But those places were over taken by the advancing hordes of walkers. Those rescue stations became death traps for those seeking help. For those who were still alive, they had to now fight to survive.

Within minutes things were suddenly gone: the computers, favorite television shows and mindless texting. Now all that people thought about was how to live from day to day and stay alive. Gathering food & water while keep away from the walkers. The walkers were easily beaten one on one. A shot to their heads, or a sharp blow would put them down for good. The one thing that those who survived learned was that walkers could only be killed by destroying the brain.

Slowly as she opened her eyes and went back to reality, everything still felt the good old days. Waking up 5:00 in morning was quite surprising for Megan when looked over to side and gazed over her digital clock. Usually she would wake up little later but it looked like something kept her back and awake from reaching that time. As she sat there for minutes, waiting for dad to appear in front her bedroom or come back from work, she gazed back over to her digital clock and noticed it was still staying at 5. Was it even a few minutes? Lousily pressing her hands firmly against the sheets of her bed and swinging her legs over to the floor beneath her, she got up and tip toe towards her bedroom door. Turning the knob of it and pulling back towards her, she opened the door and stepped through it before lightly tip toeing to the living room.

It was quiet. Too quiet. As she approached the living room and realized the tv was left on and guessed all last night. She soon went in front of it and listened. Even though the tv volume was at a low terms Megan was still able to hear it and listened what was going on. "Breaking News: The World is Falling to a End! There is no time to explain! The World is Falling to End. GET TO SHELTER AND HIDE. PROTECT ALL THE CHILDREEN" And with that, a little video at the side showed what was happening outside in Atlanta. Large fires burning down cars, People and kids running away (which was unclear why), and loud moaning sounds coming behind the background as for a few cries. Cars moving in fast paces as they knocked over people, honking their horns them to get pass. This was not a ordinary game. Suddenly, in video, shown a moan dropped down to the ground and bitten alive from whatever was on top of him. He of course cried. And suddenly, the video blacked out along with the tv....Could it be the power knocked down? Megan began to panic.

Until there was a large crash.

This is the world we live in and this is where our story begins.......

RE: Together In The Dead [Revenge - SweetSin]

Watching your brothers and sisters fall to the rising hordes of mindless Walkers was something that Michael thought he'd never see. But when the Marines at Fort McPherson in Atlanta were given orders to aid in helping out the citizens, it was unclear as to what was going on until after it was too late. Michael attempted to help his fellow brothers and sisters but the hordes were too much, they over took the men and women and drove them back. When the Sargent tried to contact the base there was static, then the words he didn't want to hear. "You're on your own, I'm sorry." The voice came over the radio and that was it, everyone scattered and it was a free for all. Michael was from Atlanta and headed to his foster parents home, it wasn't surprising when he arrived and saw only remains of his parents. He was sure to grab his fathers dog tags and slid them around his neck with his own. "Rest in peace." Michael was still in his gear with an M16 on his back and two side arms. He had ammo packs on him and simple first aid.

Being a Marine meant he needed to try and still help people. He walked out of his parents house and looked around at the empty neighborhood. There had to be someone around, any living person out of all the houses that were around. "Hello! Is there anybody alive!" Michael holds his hands up to his mouth and projects his voice out in hope of getting someones attention. "I can help!" He adds before letting his hands drop to his sides. "Fuck." He mutters while sitting on the porch, Michael usually knew what to do but in this case it was hard to say what he should do. He could start traveling but that wouldn't get him anywhere. "One last time." Michael gets up and starts walking down the street, yelling for survivors as he keeps walking the streets.

Megan was about to check the nearest window when she heard the loud crash, but something stopped when she heard a loud bang. In a instant, she quickly spun the head around and noticed it was her dad who came through the backyard door! And he was certainly out of breath with sweat dripping down his face, but why? Megan was really concerned what was out there. She quickly ran up to her father, hugging him to death. "Daddy! What's going on?!" She panicked, tears beginning to form in her eyes, her eyes showing fear. Suddenly, without an answer from her a father, a loud sound of shattering glass was soon heard when a walker soon crashed in their house and made a loud moan. "Ah!" Megan screamed, creeping behind her father as he quickly positioned himself in a attack mode with his shotgun directly pointing at the thing who really looked messed up. "Daddy, what-what is that?" And without another respond from her frightening father, he soon pulled the trigger and managed to shot the walker in the head, killing it permanently. It suddenly dropped to the ground. Megan gasped.

Her spun then quickly around, grabbing his firm hand on her delicate skin. "Baby girl, I don't have time to explain but we need to leave. We aren't safe here." He whispered as he guided her up the stairs and towards her room. "Anyway, quickly! Grab a weapon, and meet back here" And with that clearly stated Megan quickly went to her room and grabbed a few weapons from the closet, and met her father back in the hallway, who was waiting. "Got it?" Megan nodded. "Good. Let's get out of here - The rest of the crew are waiting for us there with shelter." Megan raised an eyebrow, a more serious one. She had to argued. She had so much questions to ask. "Daddy, what's the fuck is going on?!" Until that demanding soon turned to a faded mumble when she heard the only sound that yelling that was coming from the outside, which sounded deep and husky. And Megan for sure was desperate to know who was that.

A hand soon grasped for hers and dragged her along, "Come on," And headed out to outside.

RE: Together In The Dead [Revenge - SweetSin]

Michael checked open houses but only found wrecked living rooms and blood soaked carpets. It seemed that everyone ran for their lives or became breakfast. "Fucking Hell, what's happened to this place?" The man was tired of finding death within every house, such devastation happening within hours. "Anyone alive?" He yells again as he walks to the end of one street and starts on another. It was no use shooting Walkers in the open when they aren't coming after you, plus they're so slow that it was easy to escape just a few. "Come on, someone be alive." The Marine walks down the street then finally sees someone coming out of a house. She was blonde and with what looked like her father or just an older man. "Over here!" He calls out as he starts jogging towards the two. "Michael Cole of the United States Marines. Is everyone alright? Has anyone been attacked or injured by these things?" He asks after reaching the two survivors. "Is there anyone else in the house?" He asks as he looks over the two to make sure they weren't hurt.

"Do you have a place to go? Sun down will be coming soon and we need to find shelter, or block one of these houses until morning." Hopefully these two were understanding him, they looked a bit panicked and tired from the excitement. "Do you understand what I'm saying? We need to find shelter before sun down when these things are harder to see." Michael takes a deep breath before taking a step back to let them soak it in.

RE: Together In The Dead [Revenge - SweetSin]

As soon as the both father and daughter reached to the outside, there was "trouble" on the loose. As Megan heard that same voice again, yelling out for whatever reason, her head soon spun around when she noticed it was guy and was pacing his way over here, guessing he was also looking for help? But wasn't to sure, though her father seemed familiar to this situation and didn't agreed with it at all. "Uh, excuse me? I didn't know I was alien who hard time understanding, but yes I understand you completely," He started off, impatience growing inside him by the tone and body language. "But, I've actually do have a place to go and you're wasting my time. I prefer to stay alone and not get bitten, but thanks for the concern; everyone is safe and sound." He added more, squinting his a bit at the guy founding him a bit of target for some reason. Though he wasn't really expecting the 'we' to come out from his mouth, and was never knew they were suddenly working together after a minute and a half of talking to him. Rob was confused at the moment, while Megan decided to go ahead and introduce herself before involving back out the conversation. "Megan..." However, she pretty much concern where Michael came from and how he managed to survive.
