Day 1: Eric

Today the end of the world has began there are eight survivors that I know of, myself included, but before I get into all of that let me explain how I came into this......

My name is Eric first of all and i am 18.

Ironically it happened during school, it was the class right after lunch. We were all tired and sleepy ready for school to be over when suddenly all around the room in the middle of tAking notes I hear a womp womp womp and I look around and everyone’s heads are hitting their desks one after another like they're passing out. I thought it was some kind of joke they were all playing that I wasn't in on it, I was however, until the teacher collapsed on the floor. I slowly backed out of the room, completely freaked out. I'm walking around the school when I see a few other people ahead of me and I catch up to them and we go down into the cafeteria.

A little while later a few other people somehow find their way down here so there are eight of us now, me 18, Dante 16, Tiffany 16, Felix 15, Kyndrea 17, Hammond 17, and Ripley 35, one of the teachers, and Billy her son who is 7.
Everyone is starting to panic when I take charge.

"Everyone calm down.” I said
“What is happening?” Kyndreah asked
“We don’t know…” Tiffany said, looking shaken like the rest of us
“I’ve got an idea, I’ll go make some food for us, that should calm us down,” she said and disappeared into the cafeteria kitchens.
A few minutes later there was a bloody scream and we all rushed in to the kitchens to find the kitchen staff, dead. Together me, Felix, and Dante move them outside, and go back into the school where we began to count the dead and realized it was in the hundreds, nearly the whole school was dead.
We were alone.
We went back told the others the sad news, and before the real shock of it all could set in, we heard loud banging and moaning.
“Maybe they really aren’t dead,” Billy said in a small voice.
“I don’t think those are people….” Dante said as we watched out the cafeteria window one of the previously dead lunch ladies walk up the street.
“Quick!!!” I shouted, immediately thinking of the hundreds of people upstairs, “Barricade the doors!!!”
“With what?” Kyndreah shouted starting to panic
“With the lunch tables and kitchen carts!!!” Hammond shouted
Together we all started moving the tables and heavy kitchen serving stuff into a pretty sturdy barricade against all of the doors.
Once we were finished we were all shaking pretty badly, and starting to panic.
“What is happening….” Ripley said her voice trailing off
"Hold on" Hammond said and disappeared for a few minutes and returned with notebooks and pencils for all of us "write down what your feeling and what has happened it will help you to calm down"

"Good idea" I said "it will also document what has happened which will be important in the future."

A few minutes later silence fell over the group as they began to write, but I looked over at little Billy and realized he was shaking too much to write so I took him over to the side away from the others and helped him to calm down.
So now as I write this I wonder how has this happened and why?
