Apocolypse
Today i am getting on a cruise ship to go to Hawaii with about two hundred other people. I thought i could skip getting sick if i went on a cruise where no one else was sick. The bad thing is is that i already see somebody sneezing. Anyways a few weeks ago swine flu mixed with another disease and scientists dont know what it is yet. After a long wait they are finnaly letting people board the boat. When i get inside i am in the lobby and it is huge. There are three floors and the top is where all the activities are. I start walking to my room and realize that i have lost my room key. I walk back the short distance i have traveled and get a new room key from the front desk. When i get back to my room and open the door i look in and its very nice in here, two beds, a flatscreen t.v. and a big couch. When i finish looking around a voice booms all over the whole boat. ''Dinner is starting'' says the voice. I decide to walk to the dinning room early but realize most people here are waiting in line already. By the time i get my plate and go through the buffet I have my plate filled with ham, one roll, mashed potatoes, gravy and a side dish of clam chowder. When i get back to my room i lay down on my bed and watch tv not yet ready to sleep because i have a stomach ache from eating too much.
Two Weeks Later
There were screams comming from the lobby! Lots of people were running out of their rooms to see what happened. I look over the second story balcony down to the lobby and see a few people laying down on the ground and a few others running around like there are millions of poisonious spiders. A few people in the lobby are running at the others and tackle them! After that the man in front of me moves over so the lobby is out of my sight. I move back over and see the people who were tackled on the ground and the others are running upstairs. A group of people are frantically running toward the stairs to block it off. Most of the people go back to their rooms and lock their doors hoping the people will go away but i stay with some others. We will have to stay awake all night and hope they wont be able to get up here says a man. A few hours later i wake up and see all the others asleep on the ground, i look up to the wall and i think i see something. It looks like a spider from here but i can't be sure. I walk over and it jumps off the wall onto the ground about twenty feet below. The man is in a full sprint like a lion taking down his prey. I start running but then it sounds like there are foot steps coming from the opposite direction.
It's just the others, they are coming to see what is happening. But i see them quickly turn around and run back to their rooms. I look back and i think i see blood on the mans face but its too dark to tell. When i get to my room i unlock the door and run in. Quickly i slam the door behind me and lock it. I barracade the door with all the furniture and lay down next to it. I open my eyes, i think i fell asleep. Outside there is nobody to be seen. I slowly walk down to the lobby and look around and see the door open to outside but no water is getting in, and its bright and i see sand. I rush outside and see we are in hawaii. I walk along the beach fro about three minutes until i see "them"! there are about fifteen...ZOMBIES!!! I am running back to the boat in a full sprint but as they start to catch up to me some of them are normal and running from the zombies also. I look to my side to see them dropping like flies hitting boiling water. I can see something in the sky, a helicopter! It can save me and the man running next to me.
It finnally gets close enough and lowers a rope ladder. I start climbing and as soon as the man behind me grabs the ladder we lift off. We keep climbing and finnally get to the top. When we get in the helicopter there are military soldiers manning big guns but they arent using them. I ask him why he didn't use it but he does not reply. We arrive at a hospital thirty minutes later. Apparently the zombies were only in that island of hawaii and a few small parts back on the U.S.. A few weeks later after questioning from the government i go back to my home in New York.
