Day One -teaser-

Esmerelda Grinwall, or Esme, as everyone she knew called her, awoke to two different sounds, one that terrorized her, and one that was just plain strange.


The first was the sound of million of moans. Esme knew from her extensive research as a renowned zombologist that it was the infamous and horrifying call of the Solanum infested zombies. Ever since she had read the two books written by Max Brooks, ‘The Zombie Survival Guide’ and ‘World War Z’, as a child in the year 2007, she knew she would study zombies for the rest of her life. Now it was the year 2020, and 25 year old Esme was an unmarried young woman, extremely fit and always prepared for any danger, including zombie-related. She might of even jumped out of bed, charged by adrenaline, and would have had her two story home, complete with an attic emergency store room, two upstairs bathrooms, and upstairs kitchen, ready for attack if it weren’t for the second sound, which altogether bowled her over.



The sound was two voices, or more of a harmony of monotonous drawls, and as the bewildered Esme rolled over with eyebrows raised and eyes wide, she saw a gangly young woman wearing a navy blazer, black sweater, and navy slacks holding a microphone to her expressionless face, along with a short and skinny camera man with medium length dark brown hair wearing a t-shirt, brown hoodie and baggy jeans, both saying two words that meant the drastic change of all of Esme’s carefully and pain-stakingly thought out plans, and perhaps even disaster to the whole human race.
