Day Z: Chapter One – Chazz

Grouped up with a couple of Russian survivors today, Gar and Psycho. We were crawling through the infested town of Balota, having just killed a horde of zombies down by the dock and searching for more ammunition, when we were ambushed by a bandit.

Gar was shot in the head in the middle of the road before he could draw a bead through his rifle on our assailant. Then the surrounding zombies went mad. I froze.

There were zombies everywhere and the road was turning into a fire lane as Psycho opened up on the bandit.

I ran to Gar’s corpse, hoping the bullets whizzing past would miss me, to try and grab the sniper rifle from his dead hands. It was seconds before a few zombies saw my attempts and came screaming towards me. I gave up on the sniper rifle and ran for my life, leaving Psycho to his fate.

Loyalty runs pretty thin this side of the Apocalypse.

After jumping a few fences I made my way into the tree line and with the few bullets I had left finished off the two zombies still chasing me. I took cover behind some scrub and debated my options.

The town was too hot. I took a quick swig from my water bottle and moved further into the trees. Over that hill lay some outlying farms where I might find a rifle or shotgun.

I was determined that next time a bandit got the jump on me, he’d come off second best….
