Up: Game 1  Up: Game 1 Outline

Wow! That was some dream! But now what?

You sit bolt upright in bed breathing heavily.

"What a nightmare!" You say to no one in particular.

"That was the strangest dream ever! I've really got to stop watching those Sci-Fi flicks, they're starting to mess with my head!"

With that, you head to your bathroom and begin your usual ritual of showering, brushing your hair (it's jet black, btw) and putting it in a ponytail, and putting on a bit of make up (you try to not overdo it. Your not what people would consider a "girly-girl" but girly enough ) Then you head downstairs to the familiar sight of blueberry pancakes. After you've eaten, you watch a little TV, but then you remember it's a school day and you're looking forward to volleyball practice, so you turn it off, grab your lunch, kiss your mom goodbye, and head outside to wait for the bus. It's not long before it arrives. You board and scour the seats looking for two people in particular: Chelsey, your best friend, and Cody, your boyfriend. You start up small talk with Chelsey while Cody flashes you bold looks every now and then. You can't help but blush as you have been together for about a month now and been on several dates. He is the absolute coolest boyfriend you could want. At least in your opinion anyway. As you turn from the small talk with Chelsey to look out the window, something catches your eye. You could swear you see a body lying in the grass, but the bus zooms by too fast to tell for sure. Suddenly you get the feeling this isn't going to be your typical day.

"What's the matter, Kate? You look like you just saw a ghost!" Chelsey asks upon seeing the worried look on your face.

"It was nothing, honestly, probably my imagination playing tricks on me." you reply.

"Well, okay, but don't scare me like that, got it?"

"Okay, sorry, Chelsey, I know how paranoid you get when I don't act like myself."

As if her paranoia is a beacon of some sort, all of the sudden, a very strange looking man steps into the middle of the road, right in front of the bus! The driver slams hard on the brakes and manages to stop in time, then she gets out. You, Chelsey, and Cody look out the window to see if you can get a closer look at the man, but it's hard to see with all the other students heads in the way. Suddenly, you have an eerie feeling which you have often experienced in times of peril ever since you can remember. So, without really thinking, you grab Chelsey's hand and head for the back of the bus with Cody in tow. As this bus has two emergency exits in the back, you kick down one of the doors on them and jump down, then the three of you head to the front. You notice that the man is just standing there as though in some sort of a stupor. The driver is trying to reason with him, but he just has this blank look on his face. Then, all of the sudden, the man bites the driver!!

"What the heck is going on?!" you shout to no one in particular.

"I don't know, but I'm thinking we shouldn't stick around to find out!" Chelsey answers you anyway.

Just then, both the strange man and the driver begin to slowly make their way onto the bus. They are dragging their feet as though half awake. Suddenly, Cory speaks up.

"Umm . . . you know all those Resident Evil games I'm so into?"

You and Chelsey look at him funny.

"Yeah, what about them?" you question him.

"Call me loony, but I think we're in one!"

As if to acknowledge Cory's statement, the man, the driver, and all the rest of the students slowly creep off the bus and begin heading toward you three. It is now apparent that the flesh is rotting off their bodies and strange moans come from their mouths, but no clear words.

"Cory, I really hate it when your right! I just knew this was going to be one of those days!" you confirm the situation.

"Well, I suggest we get to the nearest gun shop there is and get ourselves armed!" Cory mentions

"What about supplies? We need to find a place that hasn't been touched to stock up on food and stuff because there's no way I'm fighting those things on an empty stomach!" Chelsey adds

"Well, Kate's the one with the brains here, I say we let her decide. So Kate, what should we get first?

Both of them look at you awaiting an answer. Might want to decide quickly, those zombies aren't slowing down!
