Earth's Survivors America The Dead Book Three

By Wendell G. Sweet

Donita's NotebookMarch 1st (Night)Quakes, at least three. Warmed up fast, and all the dirty snow that was piled along the streets has melted. Torrential rains. Thunder and lightening in the snow storm that came after sunset. Didn't last long; turned back to rain. Parts of the projects are burning. Jersey is burning. The sky is red-orange, everything across the river is on fire. No one has come.Harlem March 6thDonita sat on a stool in the kitchen writing in her little notebook. Something was going on out in the world. Something, and the news was covering it up. The local news had been canceled. First at noon and now again at five. There had been no strange weather today, but the time was still off. Really off. The days were longer, no doubt about it at all.There were fires burning out of control in the projects.

It seemed like no one knew.Donita didn't know anyone who owned a phone. A real phone. Real phones were a thing of the past.

Twice a voice bled through claiming to be from somewhere in Jersey, warning everyone to stay away. The voice claimed the city was on fire. Union City? North Bergen? Edgewater? They didn't say, but it looked like all of Jersey was burning, just like parts of New York. There were gangs fighting for control of what was left here, probably the same there. The voice went on to say the dead were rising and walking the streets."Feds?" Donita asked."Feds landed and took over the streets?" Bear supplied.Donita shook her head doubtfully. "I hope so, because it sounded like dead... The dead are walking the streets..." She trailed off and turned her eyes back to the windows; night coming, noise winding up in the projects, low hanging gray clouds that slipped past the windows...
