Hey again. Just in case you didn't read the description, you should probably read this paragraph below. 

First of all, this isn't a great zombie story if you're looking for one. It will be pretty short, and that's because it's supposed to be. I am only creatively transcribing a youtube series (PBGGameplay's Day Z Hardcore), so almost none of the story is mine. I just hope you guys think it's funny, and if so you should watch the actual series on youtube. Anyway, here we go!

Day Z

Cast of characters:

Peebs: The group's charismatic, albeit goofy and occasionally clumsy leader. He may not always display the bravery he possesses, and maybe he isn't the greatest possible leader of the group, but his rock solid loyalty to the team can bring them together better than anyone else.

(Fake) Backstory: When the zombie outbreak struck, Peebs tried to go on as normally as possible, but was forced to flee after his wife and pets became infected. As he joins his group of friends, he hopes not only to escape the island, but the tainted memories of his loved ones.

Jon: He can be pretty quiet, though no doubt he is still laughing it up in his head. He will always enjoy a good laugh, and tends to not take things too seriously. Sometimes he doesn't take things seriously enough.

Backstory: Normally a pretty carefree guy, he was forced to shape up when zombies began to overrun the island. He is the most lighthearted of the group, almost as though he believes it's all just a game (gee, I wonder why...).

Ross: Similar to Jon, he prefers to stay a little more quiet, but he will always be ready to back his team up and be vocal when the need arises. He has a good sense of humor, albeit a little bit more sadistic.

Backstory: I dunno. He's Ross.

Jared: Quite possibly the most courageous of the group, he takes every situation for what it is, and always is ready to act accordingly. He has a variety of skills (especially running), and will always use them to support his team.

Backstory: He had to leave his house in a hurry without any of his games. He hopes to get to safety so that he can get back to his favorite games.

Dean: Dean is...Dean. He's somehow everything at once. He can be brave, and cowardly. He can be smart, and he can be completely stupid. Although he's a bit of an attention (and item) hog, when you get to know him, he is a good friend to have at your side (usually).

Backstory: He was studying to become a lawyer when the library was overrun by zombies. In a panicked rush out of danger, he happened to come into contact with his friends.

McJones:The brains of the group. He bases all of his movements on strategy and logic (except for the silly ones). He seems to be the only one in the group who really knows what they're doing. It'd sure be a shame to lose him.

Backstory: While on the way to visit his brother (Peebs), he encountered zombies. Now, with only the supplies on his back, he hopes to get the group to safety.

Barry: The best and only word to describe him is cool. Cool in the face of danger, and ready for anything. He can be forgetful sometimes, but other than that, he's the most focused member of the team.

Backstory: He was just kind of chillin. Then, zombies. So he grabbed his emergency pack and ran.

Our group's members are all on the island for various reasons when a strange zombie virus begins to infect people. As they communicate with each other through walkie talkies, they plan to meet up and escape the island by helicopter.

Groups currently-

Peebs and Barry (close to an airstrip)

Dean (on their way to them)

Jon (most likely headed towards Peebs and Barry)

McJones (further away, headed to the meeting place)

Jared (somewhere else, just kinda chillin)

Ross (somewhere near Jared)

Peebs and Barry crawled slowly in the empty plain. The group was having trouble getting together, and it seemed like they were the only ones together yet. The group discussed familiar landmarks in order to help locate each other.

Peebs looked out into the distance, and thought he saw a group of people running.

"Uh, Dean, are those zombies chasing you?"

"Yeah. Yeah..." His voice came over the walkie talkie.

"Okay, well I see where you are, basically..." Peebs continued, instantly ignoring his friend's struggle.

Meanwhile, McJones discussed with Jon where they were.

"I'm coming on an abandoned village, there's a dock..."

"There's a dock?" McJones replied. He looked out to someone he had seen near the dock, and at that moment the movement pattern caused him to realize something. "Oh crap, that's not you, that's a zombie!"

Dean was finally seeming to realize that he was near Peebs and Barry. "Oh s*** there's lightning!"

"Watch out!" Jared yelled.

"Wait, what does lightning do?" Barry asked like a complete idiot.

"Well, if there's rain, that's good because they can't hear us." Dean explained.

In the meantime, Jon was having his own problems. "Oh I see a zombie. Oh it sees...me..."

Suddenly, McJones is shot in the shoulder. He doesn't really seem to notice for whatever reason.

"Zombies are faster than me running!" McJones complained.

While Peebs, Barry, and Dean rushed into a tower, McJones was shot again.

It would be a fatal blow.

And no one really noticed.

---

RIP McJones

He ran around and then got shot.

We now continue our regularly scheduled screaming session.

---

As they entered the tower, Peebs frantically worked with Barry to shut the door. As they finally did, it was immediately opened again by a zombie. The three panicked and screamed unlike the men they are and fled up the stairs. Once at the top of the tower, Peebs rushed outside and saw one of them still standing inside. "Barry, get out here, get out here, get out here!"

"I-I'm out here!"

Peebs was flustered. "D-Dean get out here! Whoever that is-"

"I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm just picking up-listen..."

"My heart is pounding." Peebs panted.

"Okay, close it really slowly...good. We're good." Dean replied.

After some discussion, Dean urged them to go down the ladder. They followed him down, and wandered over behind the entrance to the tower. They crouched down while Peebs questioned those separate from the group on their location and condition.

However, while doing so, a zombie wandered out of the building. They tried to stay low to avoid being seen, but...

"He sees us."

"Run! Just run!" Dean exclaimed.

As Peebs and Dean took off, Barry's grunts caught their attention. "Did anyone get hit?"

"No..." Dean replied quickly.

"I got...hit." Barry replied. "Oh gosh, I'm bleeding out."

"Are you guys getting shot at?" Jared asked, still some distance away from the group.

"I don't think I'm ever gonna find you guys..." Jon remarked.

"Just, try really hard, and hope you succeed. It's like my mom always said." Peebs assured him (Real helpful there, man).

While Jon and Barry discussed directions, Peebs had his own problems.

"WHOA, THERE'S A ZOMBIE!!!" He screamed.

As Peebs began fleeing, the others continued to discuss with Jon, while Barry quietly laughed, "I'm gonna die..."

They continued to talk some boring directions. They checked in with Peebs.

"I'm, losing these zombies, but I'll meet back up with you at the place we were just at."

Before the others could continue planning, Jon retorted, "Don't-don't f***ing lose your zombies, you always lose that s***."

"I-I sorry about it."

Ross began to speak up, commenting, "Hey, guys, I kinda found that place we were at before, uh, the dock, I'm coming up to it now, I don't know where..."

He was rudely interrupted by Peebs.

"They see me...they see me...they see me, I'm gonna get hit by a ZOMBIE!!" He screamed before running off. "I'm gonna get hit by a zombie..."

"Alright, I'm in one of the, oh f***, f*** f*** f***." Dean cursed.

"And Day Z was the best adventure that ever did be!" Jared joked.

"Jared, where are you, right now?" Peebs asked.

"I'm chilling in a warehouse, I've got a crossbow, and some, beans!"

"Oh man, Jared's really rocking it over there, and we're just losing our...Beans over here!"

Meanwhile, Barry had become incapable of moving due to his wound, struggling with how to bandage it. "I'm gonna...die. How do I use bandages and stuff?"

"I don't have a bolt for my crossbow," Jared noted.

"Yeah, the thing about the crossbow is it's just like the Walking Dead, you have to go pick up your bolts after you shoot them cause they're bad." Dean told him.

"Just like the Walking Dead! Not like real life."

"No, I'm just saying like in the show, they make a huge deal about it, and like...and...f***." Dean sighed, and continued. "Alright, that's it, I'm done with the airfield, that was sketch as f***."

After determining that they would meet up at the nearby town, Jon announced that he was near Peebs and Dean.

"Are you by the shore?"

"Yeah, no, they're inwards a little bit..."

"You should see two half circles and then a control tower next to it." Dean told him.

"I-All I know is there's a bunch of zombies, and I think I'm gonna die!"

"Jon, I'm totally meeting up with you!" Peebs replied, a little too happily.

"Jon, look at me, look at me Jon, we're gonna get through this..." Dean assured.

"Just keep running. Just keep running forever..." Peebs commented absentmindedly.

They fled to the control tower, and ran in.

"Get in the control tower. Gogogogogogo..." Dean spoke frantically.

"I am in it." Peebs replied.

Jon finally seemed to realize, "Is McJones just dead?"

They began to run up the tower once more, Dean commenting, "We're gonna lose them like we lost them last time. Go go! They're already in, they're already in."

"I think zombies are in this building." Jon added to no one's aid.

"They are in this building." Peebs agreed.

Peebs waited at the ladder down for Dean and Jon, and as he prepared to start climbing...

"OH THERE'S A ZOMBIE CLIMBING THE LADDER!!"

"We're gonna give him the reverse around, whichever way he goes, we go the other way." Dean explained. Then Peebs noticed,

"There's two zombies!" One came towards them from one direction, and the other from the other. They were cornered.

"If we are done..." Dean began.

"OH I FELL!!"

He was cut off by Peebs screaming as he plummeted from the top of the tower.

"I FELL!!"

"What, what happened to Peebs?" Jared asked confused.

Jon was oddly enough laughing hysterically, and when Dean turned around, he didn't notice Jon was no longer behind him.

"Peebs was killed." Ross said plainly.

Dean began climbing down the ladder. Meanwhile, Jon, who had apparently also fallen off of the tower, died from his wounds.

"Jon, where are you, I'm alive."

"Peebs and Jon were killed." Ross replied, exactly the same way as before.

"Oh, f*** I'm left alone." Dean groaned.

"Dean, I'm on my way, I'm crawling back to the hangars..." Barry told him.

Ross in the meantime was being very useful.

"Who exactly is left?" Jared asked.

"I'm still alive, I'm just rolling around on a pier right now, because I don't know what the f*** to do." Ross replied.

Dean and Barry finally reunited, and began fleeing from a large crowd of zombies.

Jared and Dean then instructed Ross on where to go next.

"You'll be fine, that's not a dangerous run at all."

"Yeah, I kind of like being here to be honest, because I don't die..."

To be continued...

Casualties:

McJones: Shot from a distance by unseen survivor.

Peebs:Tripped and fell off of a tower.

Jon: I guess he thought falling off towers was funny?

So until next time, I hope you guys thought that was okay. If I get a little positive feedback I may do more of this.
