Most of the journal is legible, but written in poor cursive

Those bastards! I knew something would go wrong, they knew something would go wrong. No one ever trusts the kid. I can't believe they did that. I can hear the screams as I write this...my family and I barricaded in our house. Fortunatly, I wasn't unaware of NecroTech's more secretive operations. I set up an emergency shelter in our basement for just this occasion. It should last for quite a while, definitely long enough to hold out while the situation is dealt with. Meanwhile, my family and I are safe and supplied in this shelter.

Strange. Reports on the subjects' behavoirs suggests that a large-scale "release" wouldn't create any major "situation" for more than a few days. Of course, that hasn't been tested until now. It's only a matter of time, I'm sure. So their guess was off a little. This outbreak can't last for more than a month...

Mad? No, that's not the word for it. Just a small bout of psychosis. It's just possible that the time spent in this room has driven my family and I crazy. Crazy? No, definitely not. We have plenty of supplies...we could hold out until the new year! There's no reason to worry!
Unspecified date
Where the hell are they? Why are there still screams out The rest of this entry is illegible. A hole is torn in the page near the end.

Strange...I had forgotten this log book.
Anyway, something knocked the sense back into us. Well, at least me. I don't know what, though. Maybe it's the bitter cold. Maybe it's the now-consistant thumbing on the basement door (Wait, why would that knock sense into me?). Maybe it's the fact that we're going to need to leave the basement soon. I don't know what went wrong, either. Maybe a miscalculation in one of those bastard NT-scientist's reports. Maybe the planned response failed. I don't know. That's irrelevant now.
All I know is one thing: We need to leave the basement soon. And whatever is out there isn't going away.

The page is blood stained and slightly torn. The print is slightly boldler, as if more pressure was applied to the pen
Holy shit. Nothing good has happened today. We finally decided it was time to make a run for it. The moment we opened the basement door - five - things ---
Well, it wasn't pretty. I managed to make it out with a few scratches. My family wasn't so lucky.
I ran.
The rest of the page is just scribbles

My god - we're locked in! There's a giant fence all the way around the city. I don't know why they haven't nuked this hell hole yet...
January 7, 2006
Survivors! Humanity hasn't failed us - I fell asleep in the street, just by the fence. Last thing I remember was staring out into the distance. Today, someone came by and woke me up, telling me it wasn't safe in the streets. I don't remember anything about him - or maybe her - just hearing that surreal voice, looking around seeing no one - except those damned walking corpses. I ran to safety for the night.

Today...
Well, today I got my life back on track (as much as one can in this hell hole). I stopped by my old NT lab, picked up some equiptment, and went to search for safety. Protocol states that I should use my DNA extractor on each infected specimen I should find in this situation. I don't know why, but I did it anyway.
Various, undated entries
My god. I have never witnessed such a sight in my life. I walked to a place I frequented before the outbreak, Buckley mall. What I found was a vast horde of...zombies (if you will) attacking the place. Fortunatly I was able to keep my distance (after a few extractions, of course) and discover a new talent of mine...jumping between buildings.
The horde has cleared up. I've decided to move into the mall for a little while. I'll use some of my knowledge to help those that are injured...maybe contribute just a little to those who are working to make this city a place where surviving is possible. I've become successful at searching the looted malls, as well as helping those that are injured.
Everything has quieted down...it seems that everything around Buckley is now held by the survivors. For some reason, I feel compelled to head north and see what is occuring around that area.
Loaded up on armaments today. I got a gun but I've never shot one before. Maybe I'll get some practice soon...
Traveling between malls and healing those inside sure takes a lot out of you.
I've been practicing with my gun. I decided to take it out for a trial today...I killed one of those zombies. It sure feels good to see the brains of one of those monsters covering the sidewalk.

It seems that I had forgotton the date for quite a while. Someone informed me that today was the 7th of February. I should start keeping track of the time...
Well, the mall I've been using as a safehouse for a little while is safe, but the police station adjacent to it has come under seige. I've tried to help out, but I haven't been able to help when they need it the most.
Since I killed my first zombie, I've been kicking undead ass. I've got...7 (I think) guns. It seems like I'm becoming more effective with every kill.
February 10, 2006
Today was awesome. One of the most spectacular days since the outbreak started. I woke up in the mall, ran across a few buildings, jumped outside, kicked 2 zombies' asses, and ran back in. It was still early enough to do some looting before bed, too. I felt that I became much more accurate today, as well.
February 11, 2006
Ammo is a real rarity in this city. I'm not sure why, but I've had more luck finding guns than actual ammo...I just spent the whole day searching the mall I've been resting in.
February 12, 2006
Took out three zombies today, with ammo remaining! A while ago I heared that there was a huge battle at Caiger mall, and I've recently heard rumors that it was still going on. Maybe I should arm myself and head that way...
February 14, 2006
That was close...I went out zombie hunting today and wandered a little too far from my safehouse. I realized how late is was getting while still fighting zombies, although the prospect of killing two powerful-looking zombies made me keep going. A nearly deadly mistake. I didn't have nearly enough energy to make it home. Fortunatly, I'm not an idiot, and before wandering out that far, I made note of a good safehouse on my way out. Thank god...I might not have made it...

I've been wandering around lately. I've also become extraordinarily adept at surviving in this world. I hear there are a group of survivors near Caiger mall fighting off one of the largest zombies hordes in existance. I think I'm prepared...maybe I should help fight for the remaining humans of this world.
March 2, 2006
After a long journey through the city, I stumbled upon the largest battleground I've seen since the outbreak began. Feeling the desire to help fellow survivors, I wandered into caiger. It was awe-inspiring. I've never seen this many at a single mall...even before the outbreak. I just hope I'll be able to help this already enourmous mass of survivors...
