Ever since the outbreak happened in Malton, the military quarantined the entire city. The force in charge of the quarantine is General Aaron, though when asked, many of the soldiers don't really know who he is. Which brings me to the next part. Nobody gets in or out without Aaron's approval. And if you were in Malton during the outbreak, there's absolutely no way you're getting out. With the labs that created whatever it is that's making zombies, some miliatry personelle are acting like the police force, instead of the real police force, the MPD. I've even been questiond by these foolish military dogs.
Anyway, I've gone on long enough, and I think there's something moving outside. I'd better go check it out.
