BITE by T.D Jackson (debian ebook reader .TXT) 📕

after our return i went back downstairs the news still on. I sat down but immediately got straight back up went to the kitchen grabbed a couple of beers from the fridge and sat back down. I threw one to Jon and the world unraveled in front of us. Then it happened urgent update the view switched to London it had spread. An aerial view of London appeared on the screen. I don't know London very well at all but I could see the London eye close by the screen said possible terrorist attack at S.t Thomas's hospital. The hospital was an old building grey and showing it's age I could see the things wandering around outside lingering by the Thames. This was happening I couldn't believe it I finished my beer and went to get another. As I sat back down police were arriving at the hospital dozens of police cars most of the officers went straight inside many came running back out a few seconds later you could see why they were running. A couple at first but then more dozens of them came out slowly pursuing the officers. An unlucky cyclist oblivious to what was going on reacted to late and ploughed straight in to the waiting arms of the monsters they pulled him from the bike and the TV view pulled away before you could see his grisly end. I put my beer down unopened and went upstairs to grab my laptop and brought it down with me I logged in and checked BBC news mainly it focused on what was happening in London but there was a small part about our area no useful information on the movements of the creatures. I went on to Facebook I was friends with a lot of the hospital staff there were no updates from them beyond this morning apart from one a young nurse who had apparently got to the staff room and locked the door behind her the update was 5 mins ago she was still there trapped I posted to her to go out through the ceiling I have not received a response yet. I felt slightly insane doing this next bit I went online and started downloading how to guides anything I could think of hot wiring lock picking basic first aid guides. I went back upstairs and grabbed a couple of books and threw them at Ty and Jon the zombie survival guide for Jon World War Z for Ty I took the SAS survival guide. We all started raiding while downloading the guides online. We sat there for a couple of hours reading it was 9 o'clock the the view on the news had changed apparently the scenes on London streets were to gruesome to show. I took a peak out the window nothing. I really fancied a takeaway we rang up the burger shop round the corner it was open and ordered burger and chips 3 times to pick up. I drew the short straw I went out the back door to get to our back door you had to go through the garden a wood panel door negotiate tiny alley filled with dustbins and then another sturdy wooden door. I opened this last door slowly took a look nothing I hit call on my phone Jon would hear everything that was going on it took me 2mins to get to the shop our order was ready I paid and left with out a word I got back inside and we sat down to eat. I got a phone call from Toby he lived just round the corner in a flat on the 3rd floor we talked briefly neither of us seemed to want to panic the other so we agreed to sit tight for now and talk again tomorrow his girlfriend and flat mated were with him. The 10 o'clock local news showed the things still on course to our area just half a mile up the road. A lot of experts came on TV blaming everything from a terrorist attack a virus and one nut job blamed the lunar cycle and one more blaming homosexuality there are some stupid people in the world. It's midnight I volunteered to stay up and keep an ear out just in case something decided to knock on our door. I have dimmed the windows further by placing more curtains on top of the ones already up so i can have the TV on with low sound. London looks to be overrun earlier I saw them spill into the underground Waterloo line the dead of being trapped down there with those thing was horrifying. It's 2am it has spread further it seems that some of those that were bit in the underground made it on to other trains turned bit more people they fled on to more trains London's wide transport system was spreading the monsters every where Leeds Manchester and Birmingham have confirmed occurrences Glasgow is a possibility. I'm sitting by the window holding the curtain back a little bit gazing in to the street not that I have much of a view just the terraced houses on the other side I have not seen any of the monsters yet. 3am Jon is taking over so i can get some sleep Ty will take over from him at 4. It's 6am Britain has declared a state of emergency borders have been closed and a nation wide curfew of 6pm has been declared anyone out after that time will be arrested the military have entered London to deal with the things the news has been censored from showing this. The area is oddly quiet no one is out on the streets. Jon suggested we have a look I thought he was mad but he produced a small remote controlled helicopter something he had bought from the local men's gadget shop. The copter had a small camera capable of taken 1min of continuous footage or 300 still photos. The range was about 200 meters and ten mins of continuous flight. We headed out in to the back garden i got the copter camera linked up with my lap top and saw the grass Jon piloted the copter up we decided to keep it low at 8ft we wanted to get a good view of the area it disappeared over the fence and turned the corner it had only made it just past the takeaway before the signal started to get weak we decided to bring the copter back to the garden and have it fly as high as possible above our heads. Shit a little further on from the burger shop the things were spilling in to the town hundreds of them they split at the junction in 3 different directions they were 15 mins away. Jon brought back the copter and we headed inside I looked out the food we had acquired yesterday suddenly it looked like nowhere near enough. I grabbed a cricket bat Jon had the same idea grabbing another we told Ty we were heading to the newsagents on the corner and told him to wait by the door to let us in. We ran up the slight slope and headed in to the small corner shop Jon had brought 2 large travel bags with us the last thing I wanted when running away was for a bag to split I hit the button on my phone we had 5mins then we got out no excuses. The store was open but no one was in there I checked underneath the counter nothing. I went straight for the tinned items Jon for the drinks and we soon had one bag filled the second was filled with frozen ready meals I took my sports bag off my back and returned to the counter grabbing as many packs of cigarettes and tobacco as I could fit Jon grabs handfuls of junk food. My phone started to vibrate times up we grabbed the bags and headed out we could see them in the distance we instead of going back the way we came we headed left out the store so we were out of there view we then turned off and headed back on the next road over Ty let us in I looked around before I went in nothing saw us we locked the door behind us. I have removed all the light bulbs from the house we have moved various large items downstairs blocking the front door cupboards chairs etc the back door will be the emergency way out. We have moved with great difficulty the fridge from downstairs the microwave and all supplies plus any useful items forgot the tin opener again had to go get it we have moved all supplies to the loft barring 3 bags that will be kept by the door at all times in case we need to make a quick escape. I am taking this quiet time to download more how to books then writing them down by hand just in case the electric gives out. I have also looked in to giving these things a name they always have a name walkers biters geeks grabbers the infected I have decided on Vivens from the Latin words mortuus Vivens meaning Living dead. I have just looked out the window there spilling down the street there here Take Back The Street's

We are up on the second floor now me Ty and Jon none of us are quite sure what to do now so many zombie movies are running through my head but we have settled on one movies idea have a sit down. The news is on again I don't think I have ever watched this much news before the last time I even bothered looking at BBC news was during the London riots. I'm still downloading how to guides at the moment a guide to agriculture and caring for livestock why? God knows I do not have the faintest idea of what half of it means but maybe it could come in handy. Jon has already opened a beer it's only 8 in the morning but I think we can excuse it even Ty who rarely drinks and even then only a wkd has had a Malibu and coke i have just settled for coffee. London appears to be almost overrun with the things the footage keeps panning back and forth to try and record a section of street that does not have a Viven as I have taken to calling them the other 2 think I'm stupid chowing down on someone unfortunately that's what they always seem to be capturing. The view switched to a narrow street the hundreds Vivens literally being funneled up it as they pursued a group of survivors running for there life you would think this would be a time to stick together but unfortunately humans rarely do so when there arse is on the line people were shoving punching trampling each other to get away I swear I saw one guy trip another only for the fallen man to jump to his feet chase down the man and proceed to bash him over the head
