they continued to paw at the glass I saw something. I threw myself to the side just as I one of them slammed in to the door where I was a second earlier where the hell had it come from? Had they escaped in to the main part of the hospital had the people that had been bitten and sent to a and e turned and spread the infection? I didn't have time to contemplate this any further as the creature was coming at me again not seeing a fire extinguisher near by I held only the pole as a weapon I held it in both hands keeping it between me and it it lunged and I swung the pole straight in to its knee cap it sank to one knee it looked up and roared but at this point it was roaring at nothing as I had taken off down the corridor closing the doors behind me thank you resident evil for the advice. I swiped my card again and walked passed maternity I could here screaming and crying i couldn't bring myself to look in but blood was seeping under the door and in to the corridor. The elevator was just round the corner I would take it to the ground floor and head out through the underground parking area. As I was waiting for the elevator i considered that the stairs would have been a better idea I wasn't paying attention and it almost killed me I headed straight in to the lift with out thinking tucked in to the corner just out of view it hurled itself at me it caught me on the side I some how managed to get the pole up between me and its teeth its mouth biting in to it. It was a girl blue top blonde hair jeans I'm not sure I was to busy trying not to get eaten to play fashion police. I managed to get my foot up and drive it in to her stomach i then used my weapon to hold her against the wall while I reached for the ground floor button the door slid shut and i could use both hands to hold her in place. The ride down seemed to take forever hopefully they would not be outside the elevator door waiting for me. The door opened it was clear and I sprinted out the elevator leaving the thing was behind me. The corridors in the hospital are wide and offered a nice area to dodge around I was going to need it the ground floor was swarming with them broken glass broken bodies everywhere people yelled and cried I just kept going and going it was easy to dodge most of the creatures were to preoccupied with others. I was approaching the main lobby I could head out here but the revolving door would be suicide best to take the stairs down a floor and head through parking I was almost at the stairs just passing the coffee shop when one came out of nowhere waving an arm at me I ducked it raised the pole in both hands caught it under the chin and drove it bakc and knocked it straight through the glass divider between the stairs and the floor we both tumbled over my momentum carrying me down with it I landed on top of it I heard the pole snap its neck as we landed. But although its body could no longer move its head continued to tr and bite me I stomped on it it stopped. I stumbled to my feet winded but there was the door leading out to the parking area I had made it. I swiped m card and headed through in to the parking area it was deserted I walked through freely.I walked out and stood on the pavement just outside the hospital emergency vehicles were racing past me to the hospital i walked up the slope to see the hospital everything had changed people were on the ground being eaten or shambling around with blank face pursuing those few who still remained among the living. The staff bus pulled up to the main entrance and opened its door the driver realized the mistake to late the things forced there way on and attacked ever one on board. There is nothing I could do I turned round and started the long 2 mile run home.
Home



It normally takes me about 45 mins to walk the almost 3 mile distance home but seeing what I had seen and doing what I had just done tends to put a spring in your step. After I was a few hundred meters from the hospital and out on to the main road everything was so normal contrasting with the fear I had just seen. People driving on by like the world had not suddenly gone mad the only odd thing to the rest of the world was the extra emergency vehicles with sirens on speeding to the hospital but of course no one took any notice of this it was a hospital after all.I considered going back trying to figure out what happened I decide against it and realized what an odd state I must look standing on the side of the road with a metal mop pole in my hand and a coat which I had just noticed had some dark stains on it I smelled it the whiff of rotten meat settled at the back of my throat and I choked I took my coat off leaving me with just my purple work t-shirt very stylish. I walked up the road and smoked a cigarette turning to the left to the local Tesco's everything was in a daze more normal things were happening around me people carrying on with there lives anger came up inside me I wanted to shake them ask them why they didn't care what had just happened to me of course they had no way of knowing this and my reaction was that of all humans who go through stress nobody loves everybody hates me. I walked through the double doors grabbed a plastic carrier bag and shoved my coat inside it. Why was I here? I should be calling the police screaming panicking anything other than this but no I'm here deciding what kind of bread I want and which toilet paper Jon does not think feels like sand paper. For just 5mins I craved normality peace. I got some crisps and headed to the counter the girl behind the till asked me
Sir are you OK
God I remember when people didn't call me that I'm only 24 for god sake I muttered I was fine asked for a pack of fags paid and wandered back out in to the parking area. The entire scene had changed.I looked down the road to the junction that would take you to the hospital on the junction there were half a dozen police cars stopping traffic in all directions people climbed out of the cars and angrily started to yell at the dozen or so officers all of whom were to busy talking on walkies or putting up what looked like crowd control barriers. I walked closer til I was only 20 feet from the barrier and looked down the off road from the junction the hospital was just out of view but I could see an army of police cars outside of it and was that military trucks? No that's stupid only in the movies does this stuff happen. An officer in his 50's approached me
Sorry son roads closed and I need you to take a few steps back looks like you have the day off
Pardon I replied surprised that he knew I worked at the hospital he nodded at my shire indicating where it said NHS trust
Of course sorry officer do you know whats going on?
He shook his head and rattled something off about a mild public disturbance nothing to worry about just a precaution.
I apologized again to the officer and walked away not wishing to fraw any more attention to myself. Precautions mild not if you have seen what I have I walked for home. After half an hour or so's jog I turned on to Camden road that runs through a small town in the South East I walked past all the shops starting to wind down from the working day waved at the guys in the kebab shop where me Jon and Ty were regulars. Jon and Ty short for Tynam I know weird name but I didn't pick the name were my best mate and brother respectavley Jon had come to stay with us for a couple of weeks about a year ago we had been best friends since we had 1st meet 5 years ago I was slightly older than him. Ty was my younger brother the youngest of 3 boys he has lived with me for 2 years since our mother died. The middle child Toby (yes I'm well a where all our names begin with T but I didn't pick them) lives just round the corner in a 1 bedroom flat with one of my ex gf's no there not sleeping together Toby has a girl friend I hadn't spoken to Toby since before Christmas but the thought of contacting him was pushed out of my mind with the sudden realization that I was at my front door. I live in a small two bedroom 2nd 1 in terraced house me and Ty having a bedroom each and Jon having the front room a his room the only thing I didn't like about the house was you had to walk through Ty's bedroom to get to the bathroom. I opened the door and stepped in the bailiffs had been by again while I was out requesting immediate payment blah blah I ripped it up and threw it in the bin Jon was still in bed asleep but he didn't have work til 5 so it was fine but wat if there wasn't a 5? I decided not to wake Jon and headed upstairs and went to the bathroom Ty had not been to college today teacher training or something and was also asleep probably shattered after staying up til 8 this morning playing video games. So many things raced through my head I dunked it under the cold tap that helped a bit what would a rational person do in this situation? Put on the news if it's that serious it will be on there. I walked in to my bedroom dropped on to the bed and flicked on my tv and laptop that's when I saw it the hospital was there staring back at me from an aerial view from the circling helicopter. Underneath on the scrolling headline I could see the small figures wandering round outside the hospital covered in blood some chasing down the few living remaining. My eyes rose to the headline THE DEAD WALK?
