made it.
can't use the computer too much, wireless is draining the battery something chronic. but i found a fire extinguisher, nice and dense and easy to swing, and smashed the window of the office. it took a lot more work than i expected. movies have really ruined reality. then i stepped onto the shades. something grabbed at my leg as i climbed up, but i kicked it away. i'm bloody glad i brought my backpack to work today, or climbing with the laptop would have been a fucking nightmare. as it was, it was still a fucking nightmare. i looked down and regretted it, not because of the height but because of the dozens of bloodied grey arms i saw waving from the hole in the glass i left behind. one of the things tumbled out of the hole, rolled across a louvre and fell to the paving two floors below, head first. its skull cracked like a watermelon, and splashed blood and brains all over the bricks. it didn't move after that.
then i was on the roof.
there's nowhere to hide up here, not really. there's an access point over on the east corner, which i'm keeping a close eye on, but i don't see how they could get to it. and i check over the edge to where i escaped, just to see if any of them are climbing up after me. quite a few have tried, but they've all fallen.
i think i'm safe for the moment. or, at least, as safe as i can be, without food or water or hope of rescue. There aren't hundreds of them around the building now, it's more like thousands. its like a rally or something. the last time i saw this many people in one place was at the V festival in the UK a few years back. but these guys aren't dancing or smoking or drinking or tripping. they're just milling around.
and they only have eyes for me.
what's going on out there? the news sites aren't updating, but blogs seem pretty damn confused. some have said they're zombies. is that possible? that's not possible.
is it?
jesus, someone help me, please...
