Am writing this from my neighbor's hidden basement.

The fact that I was woken up by screaming outside my window probably should've let me know that it was going to be a bad day, but it really wasn't until I saw the body parts outside that I actually digested it. The news stopped coming about two hours ago, after they said that France was virtually dead and that Mexico City was about to be bombed.

I don't know. It's all horrible. We tried getting away, figured that it wouldn't be so bad in the countryside, but the sheer amount of corpses on the road makes it impossible to leave the city, and anyway, we didn't have any provisions. I saw them eating another neighbors's dog, I don't think I'd ever seen so much blood before. We tried getting back home, but when we got there all the walls were splattered with blood and there were noises from the upper floor - we got out of there as fast as possible. We had to run through the zombie hord, I don't think my heart had ever been beating as fast. We found another group of survivers about a block away, and that's how we got inside this basement.

I don't know what will happen. We're a group of about twenty right now. There were three more, but they went out for a moment and haven't come back. I doubt they will. There's a tiny window at the corner of the basement, and you can see a bit of the outside world. The streets look deserted, but the screaming continues (hasn't stopped since it began this moment, actually), and there's a lot of abandoned cars and things all over.

There's a pregnant girl in here, she hasn't stopped crying for two hours. Her husband was killed early as they made their way here. There's only one crate of bottled water and three cans of peaches. I don't know what we'll do to get food, it's too dangerous to go outside.

I'm scared. I've no idea what's happened to my extended family - we managed to call my grandpa at about 11, but the line broke and we have't heard anything else. I'm just thankful all four of us are together, although my mom has a nasty cut on her arm and my brother's limping slightly.

I never thought the end would be quite like this.
