BEFORE THE FALL, BEFORE THE STORM CAME.
The cool air of the fridge washed over me, relieving me of the summer heat. I grabbed a beer and juice pack—A fruit punch flavored caprisun. “Catch.”
The beer flew through the air. Hitting its mark dead center— The forehead of my beer awaiting friend, Frank. The can clanked as it hit the wood floor. “Ow!” Frank rubbed his forehead “Why did you have to do that?”
“Oh, says the one who always makes me get them a drink, every time I get up… even worse I paid for those drinks.” I verbally jabbed at Frank.
Frank reached down and grabbed the fallen beer; He cracked the can open, and gulp down the cool beer, “Haaah… Fair point.” Frank shot me a toothy grin.

I let a slight grumble as I moved over to the coach, opening the caprisun on the way.
Sitting down I looked over to my bud Frank. Dammit. I can’t bring myself to hate him, even if he’s a lazy shit around me. He’s always been with me since we met in training.
Turning my attention to the T.V. We were watching a zombie apocalypse movie— I think it was called [I am legend]. I took a sip out of my caprisun; I was trying to cut down on alcohol intake after the accident.
“Hey.” Frank turned to me, sipping his beer, “I wonder, how long would I last at the end of the world? I think you’ll probably survive a few months. What do you think ”
I intensified my sucking of my juice; finishing it a second later. “Well, I'm pretty sure I will survive longer than a few months. And to answer your question, You’re liver will keel out way before the zombies get to you, if you keep on drinking like that.” I poked at Frank's slight drinking problem.
Then a sudden burst of cold hit me. Frank exploded like a blood filled water balloon; Strands of flesh and shards of bone hitting me, I covered my eyes to protect myself.
My shirt shredded as the bone flew into me, piercing my exposed flesh, imbedding itself into my muscle.
