Summary: It has six months since the outbreak in London. However, despite attempts of containment, the plague managed to reach the shores of the U.S. Eastern Coast, devastating almost everything east of the Mississippi. The military's final plan is to wipe out whatever remains from Boston to Miami.





	ZombiU: Escape from New York

(A/N: So this is something I came up with a little bit ago. I played ZombiU for the first time a couple of months ago and I have to say, for the most part, it's actually a pretty good game. I did attempt to do a Resident Evil story a while ago but that didn't end up taking off, although I do have another idea in mind. But for right now, I decided to do a story on this because the story in the game is interesting and honestly, more could be added to it, if Ubisoft decided to do a sequel in the future. Anyway, this is my real first attempt at a zombie story so feel free to critique.)

Prologue

_Centuries ago, during what has been called the "the Dark Ages", the bubonic plague, or the "Black Death" ravaged Europe, killing millions and at the time brought the human race to its knees. While it did end up surviving, this major event should've been seen as a warning of what was to come. John Dee knew, he knew what was going to happen for years, decades, and yet the entire world paid him no attention. We now suffer because of the world's ignorance._

_It first began in London, this unknowable "plague" that turned ordinary people into flesh-eating monsters. We, the Ravens of Dee, knew this would happen but it was too late before we eventually acted. London and the entire island of Great Britain isolated itself from the world in hopes of preventing the infection to spread._

_The only thing left to do was burn London down to the ground, which even now seems horribly ironic. After that, we thought we had prevented the worst crisis since the Black Death from happening across the world, that the infection was quelled and had no way of reaching across the Atlantic._

_We were wrong.

_January 2013; New York City_

The cold dry air filled his lungs as he ran, looking for any shelter, any open door that he could get inside in order to get a breath and hopefully warm up. _They're getting closer. _The man didn't dare look back, knowing it would only slow him down.

He then saw lighting up ahead, there was a warehouse. One of the doors was open and as he got closer he saw a ladder that led to a second floor. He sprinted as fast as he could and once he got to the ladder he started climbing.

The growling behind him was close, too close. As he was climbing he felt one of them grab his shoe. This zombie had a strong grip for being dead. He tried to kick it away but to no avail and more showed up. Their weight together was enough to slow him down and as he started losing his grip, due to his sweaty wet hands, he knew he was done for.

He then heard screaming, but this wasn't from an unfortunate victim, this was the kind that made all his hairs stick up on end. There was a group of zombies now surrounding the ladder but one of them seemed to be approaching at a quicker pace, quicker than all the others.

It was that particular zombie that was screaming, one of the "unnatural" ones, as he liked to call them. It tore through the crowd and jumped, something one would not associate zombies with and it grabbed him, making him finally lose his grip and fall to the ground.

His final thoughts were a prayer to God hoping his end would come quick and painlessly.

(A/N: Well okay maybe it's not a lot so far but I assure you the scariness is to come. Like I said, first time with this so I hope you'll all give it a chance. Also, for the opening credits, I'm using the song "Calamity" from Two Steps from Hell. Until then guys, this is FoxMcCloud7921 signing off!)
