My Name is Devony Perch. As of a week ago, I was set to finish my second year of college, go to Medical School, and become a doctor. I was living in a small apartment with my boyfriend Jace, who had similar plans. Unfortunately, that was all about to change….
Just last night, my mother called. My father had fallen ill again, and it didn't look like he was going to make it. She needed me at home to help her take care of him, and my younger sister Olive. So Jace and I set out for home.
But we never got there.
Three deep booms echoed across the valley. Car breaks squealed, and Jace and I looked as the ominous cloud began to expand. People were running, screaming, fleeing for their lives. I grabbed Jace's hand and pulled him towards my house. Or should I say, where my house used to be.
The world became a massive cloud of toxic ash and dust. Nuclear fallout had enveloped everything in sight. Most died quickly and painlessly, but others were affected by the powerful radiation. For the first time, I believed in zombies.
There was absolutely nothing left......except us.
We were trapped in an unknown world. A perpetual twilight.
