PROLOGUE
I was told to write this to be used as a history of your world, as it is now. So I figured it would be a good idea. I will try and remember as much as I can recall, so you will understand how we got to where you are today.
I call it your world because I am 92 years old and my body is slowly shutting down; I will try and make it quick. So I guess I will start with who I am and things you might already know because it was not always like it is now. We used to be consumed by the internet, money, celebrities, and everyone else’s drama unlike now where we worry if everyone is ok and wondering if we will fall back into that way of life we used to have.
So what you probably know already is that we fight to keep our world for the living and not the dead and that our world, so far may be small, but it used to be much smaller. You, I am sure, already know from your teachers that this world was brought back by groups that came together in Morris, IL.
A few things you may not remember is there used to be more to worry about, in the early days, other than just school, work, farming, chores and hunting the dead. There used to be two types of zombies, no, there were zombies then there were the sleepers, I will get to that.
The other thing you may not know, or you figured it out. I am one of the original five people that brought together the first survivors in Morris, still alive. Our children and grandchildren came later when the world was a little saner.
So I will start the story, from my view, on how this all started and how we came to be where we are now. I will have Joey or Kalie fill in the parts I was not awake for, being knocked out happened a lot to me. Hold on tight because you are going to learn a lot that people might not want you to know.
So before I begin, Sleepers are what the zombies, or as you know them, The Dead, used to be. They were the first, the beginning. They breathed, bleed, ate, slept, and maybe drank something (we don’t know for sure). But, like us, if they were shot too much or didn’t eat or didn’t breathe, they died. Easy? You would think, but once they died, the came back as the Dead.
