New Short Fiction: Elementary of the Dead

August 31, 2011

Elementary of the Dead is a short story that starts three years after a world wide outbreak. Mrs. Kate Morris a young redhead is the first grade teacher at William Jefferson Clinton Elementary (Yes the name is intentional, it adds to the irony.)

As is required of all school employees Mrs. Morris open carries a Glock 22 and has a Sig 556 leaning up in the corner.

The students learn their ABC’s of survival. “A” being ammunition.

The school also has snipers on the payroll and Mrs. Morris has taken a liking to one.

Today the walls get breached and the horde makes it onto the school grounds but they’re not here to play.

I have to say this pic kinda inspired me.
