Everything changes, but I never thought that I would have to change too. Millions of people talked about zombies and the pending apocalypse. Shows detailed the war against the mindless creatures, but no one was ready. One day, I am walking down the street with my wife, and the next she’s gone because a victim of the infection hit her.
Slowly, the infection grew until it took over the world. “Don’t worry, Gary, it will pass.” My friends warn as we watch zombies stumble through busy streets.
“I’m not convinced,” I reply, watching my friend record the happenings.
The world tried to continue as it was, but it could not maintain. Leaders began to become infected. Soon the infection infiltrated every inch of our society. It became the “normal”. My friends disappeared. Each of them slowly falling victim to the infection. Their brains bubble with nonsense, while they aimlessly walk among the living.
I swore I would never fall victim. I refused to allow the infection to take over my body. I took all precautions, knowing the threat was high. Soon I was the only survivor. My mind and body fought, but it became too much. Now, I sit here staring at my computer while the smartphone dings on the desk next to me. I grab my phone and spend the next ten minutes feeding the infection. Allowing it to grow inside of me.
Technology has infected us all. Many tried to fight it, but we all became zombies to man’s best creation!
