Time is Ticking
by Wils
I am sitting here, in an area that looks very much like a wasteland, with the sound of the ticking clock counting down what’s left of life. Not that we haven’t given a good fight. The bodies are strewn about the place, some simply shot, others bashed with whatever was nearby.
I only have a few bullets left. This gun has saved my life multiple times but now desperation is setting in. Some people have resorted to eating the dead to stay alive, but I can’t do that. If this is to be my last entry, please know I tried.
