Venue One: A Home in Crestview
I had just gotten home from classes. I went through my normal routine, trying my best to avoid the disapproving stares from my mother. She was not particularly happy about the choices that I made, but at the same time she knew that I was somewhat of a victim of my own circumstances. My sister was studying at her desk. Finals were coming up soon, so she started to cram. I, on the other hand, was lucky enough not to have any final exams. Instead, I had projects to turn in. I sat down at my desk and that was when I felt a pang in the back of my head. My sister had thrown a yellow Frisbee at my head. I decided not to engage in any craziness and decided to use my time to simply review some notes for my Earth Sciences project. When I got bored of that, I thought how nice it would be if we had a guest.
And that's when the doorbell rang.
It was my friend Byron with his sister, Gelina. They said that they were going to be spending a few days at our house, so I welcomed them in and showed them to the guest room. We did what we usually did when we were together. We'd watch some movies and play some video games as my parents prepared all of our favorite foods. It may have been just me missing my two dear friends or maybe just the stress from final projects, but I really needed that. When we were playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl, I accidentally hit my head against the coffee table and blacked out.
When I came to, I was in my room. The vibrant colors that usually held in it were now dull. There was an ax on my desk. I grabbed the ax because I thought it looked interesting. I went to my door. It was locked.
Unlock.
The door unlocked quickly and instead of the usual hallway, there was now a huge hole in the floor, leading to the hallway below. Something wasn't right.
Fix.
Nothing happened.
Tools.
Nothing happened. This was strange. Was I no longer in control? Then how was I able to unlock the door earlier?
Fly.
I tried to leap across the large gap, but instead of floating, I fell straight down. Obviously, I couldn't have everything I wanted. I decided to investigate. In the kitchen, the food was still there. Some of it was now splattered in blood. If only there was some indication of what exactly happened here.
I turned around, there was writing on the cabinet. Blood writing. It read "They are not the same, behead them - Byron". This wasn't enough.
I turned to the refrigerator. On it was a message "Zombies - Ka" Now this was something I could go with.
I need more weapons
I opened the cabinet and there was a baseball bat, a katana, several firearms, and grenades.
I need an easy way to store and carry these
I found my backpack. It worked as an infinite storage of sorts, like the inventory of a video game character.
Let's do this
The zombies appeared. I recognized their faces. It was my family and friends. They had changed. I used the ax to behead my mother and quickly turned around in time to slice off my father's head. I then dropped the ax for a bit and pulled out the shotgun and aimed at Byron's head, quickly reloaded and shot my sister. Grasping a pistol in my other hand, I shot Gelina in the kneecaps and drew the katana and beheaded her. I made my way to the garage, making sure to pick up my ax along the way. Inside was an unfamiliar person, who I assumed was the zombie responsible. The person lunged at me with wild eyes. I was too slow to draw a weapon, and the zombie pinned me to the ground.
Help.
I heard a gunshot. When I opened my eyes and wiped the gore from my face, I saw through the hole in the zombie's head and saw Sue and David standing there. Sue was holding the gun, David wielded a chainsaw.
"Let's get going," said Sue. We got in my dad's car and drove off.
