So much went wrong with this plan, where do I begin?
I probebly made the biggest mistake I could make in a situation like this, as I opend the door to the apartment I went over the plan with Takira and didnt pay attention to what happend outside, What I didnt notice was that my neighbour stood on the other side of the door, our suspicions were true she had been attacked by the zombies last night and was now after me. She startled me and I stubbled back and fell over as my neighbour went for the attack. I made it out alright thoug, Numa leapt into action and pushed her back, my neighbour didnt hasetate for one second thoug and went for the attack again. Numa however also went to the attack and used her strength to punch her, sending my neighbour crashing into her own apartment door on the other side. She went crashing down the stairs, even if shes a zombie her old fragile body could never have survived.
What suprised me next is that Numa broke her silence after being quiet for four days. She pulled me up from the floor and asked me if I was alright, I noticed on her voice that she was really worried that I had gotten biten. I could do nothing but nod and quietly reply ”yeah”

We rushed down the stairs to get out of the apartment building, I couldent help but stop and take a look at the zomibe who used to be my neighbour, a sweet old lady. I couldent help but feel alittle sick as I looked down on her, she wasnt moving at all, I havent really seen a dead body before. It fealt so surreal. The others called me to hurry up, it was odd to see the hallway like this, doors stood wide open and it was dirty with handprints all over the walls. I find out what kept the doors open. It was the corpses of my other neighbours from the buliding next to ours. I never liked them but I didnt wish this for them.

Outside was like a warzone, bulidings were on fire, cars were crashed or turned over, In the distance you could see the living dead stumble around blankly. It was a shock for all of us, we were probebly standing there there staring out for a minute or two. Bob was the first one to get to his senses, he has been in wars and had his share of killing so Im not really suprised he wasnt that shocked. We made our way around the building towards where the RV was parked. We stood face to face with to of the living dead. They were just pretty much staring blankly and moving slowly towards us. We easially made our way around them. What we didnt know is that some of these bastards are fast and actully run. There were one of them standing behind the building so it was impossible for us to see it, it had run up to me and grabbed me from behind, it ripped my vest right of my back. Numa was fast on the retaliation and had grabbed a large rock and slammed it over the zombies head leaving it in a pool of blood and with a skull bent inwards. Numa looked down on me with an angry look telling me to watch my back better. The slow moving zombies where starting to catch up on us, they had incrased in numbers so we decided to start running instead, Numa was still holding on to that rock wich was dripping with blood. We made it to the RV in one peice, well except for my vest but thats not important. We had a pretty clear view from the RV. We saw zombies alittle here and there. All of a sudden a large group had seen us and started running towards us. They were so fast, it seemed like they had all the stamina in the world becuse they were not stopping. We started to panic, Takira tried to pick open the lock but the panic was to much. Out of dessperation Numa broke the window to the RV with the rock she had killed that zombie with and opend the lock from the inside. We wanted to avoid this but we had no choice. The zombies were very close to us now and we all got into the van as fast as we could. Bob was able to hotwire the car pretty fast, wich dosent really suprise me since he is an ex-convict so I guess he knew what he was doing. Numa pushed him to the side and sat down in the driver seat. She turned the car around, the zombies were just a few meters infront of us. She stepped on the gas and ride right throug the horde coming right for us. Me and Takira were in the back, I looked out the back window and I could see them falling to the ground, either lying perfectly still or twitching on the ground. We're safe for now and we are making uor way to a smaller community 15 minutes from here. I'll probebly write again when things are calmer, we're so full of adrenaline I can barley sit still.

Note to self: Ask Takira where she learned to pick locks, seems like she knows alot about things like that.
