1 " They knew if they remained in the city for much longer, they would be stuck and eventually run out of food. Their only hope of survival was to leave the city and meet up with the others. "
― Jason Medina , The Manhattanville Incident: An Undead Novel
2 " I have complete faith that the government will find another way to screw us over and keep us trapped in the Infected Zone. "
3 " Kat, I don’t dislike him. Yes, he drives me nuts, sometimes, and I don’t trust him, as far as I can throw him, but I don’t dislike the man. "
4 " I wish I had something reassuring to tell you, but I don’t. It’s not safe out there. People are rioting and looting. There’s no telling what could happen to you, if you went out there. We need to play this safe. "
5 " I’m sorry to say this, but the city is lost. Go home to your families, while you still can. They need you, now, more than ever. "
6 " She sucked up her tears and sniffled one last time. She wasn’t really ready, but she knew she had to be. She wiped her cheeks dry and summoned up all the courage she could muster. This was a matter of life and death. These strangers she was with would sooner leave her behind than risk their lives for her. She had to be tough, at least, for now. "
7 " When you open the door, shoot anything that moves. "
8 " Are you seriously giving my buddy, Dave, a hard time, in front of me, you prissy little pissant? Please, tell me you are, so I can crack your face in half. "
9 " If you are seriously planning to overcharge us, then I’m afraid I’m going to have to beat your ass. I know both things are wrong, but maybe two wrongs will make a right, since two rights don’t make a wrong. "
10 " Herbert hated having to listen to his subordinate yell at him, but he had to take it, for now. "
11 " As Melvin Thompson screamed, he saw his life flash before his eyes. He was disappointed it was not a good life. Nothing good ever seemed to happen to him. "
12 " The door opened slightly. He did not hear any screaming, which made him think he might be correct. What if they were dead? "
13 " They heard loud, incoherent, animalistic, screaming and knew what it meant. The infected were near. "
14 " He screamed and cried, as they tore into his flesh. "
15 " An uncontrollable need to feed and pass along her infection had become her sole priority. "
16 " He still had not realized there was no coming back from this mess. He was hopeful they would persevere, no matter how long it took. In the meantime, there was no time to think inside the lines anymore. They had to break some rules, if they were going to survive the night. It was all out war on the infected. No holds barred. "
17 " This was a common routine for the group, whenever they were blessed enough to actually hit a deer, rather than scaring it away. It looked like they would be eating well tonight. "
18 " No offense, Charles, but they’ll probably shoot you just for being black. "
19 " He would have liked spending a little time with one of the girls himself. Instead, he had to settle for sleeping in a room with a bunch of guys. It was a total sausage fest, he thought. "
20 " She could see the destroyed remnants of the George Washington Bridge and kept preparing for the flash and mushroom cloud, but it did not come. In a way, she was slightly disappointed. "
