Hyung Choi, The Demilitarized Zone: South Korea

I talked with Hyung Choi, director of the Korean Central Intelligence Agency. He said that Korea was better prepared by any other country. You can see the mountainous terrain is very defensive. Their was very heavily militarized. Over a million men and women were actively under arms with a further five in reserve. Almost everyone in the country undergone basic military training. I think that this training would be very difficult. I would not want to do this. But if I was born in Korea, I would be forced to. This country was bred for war, planned, prepared and poised for it since July 17, 1953. A month before their trouble started, the first outbreak was reported in Pusan. Panmunjom is the only area along the DMZ wher opposing sides can meet for face-to-face negotiations. Later there were many evacuations. everthing was falling apart.

Sadar Khan, Udaipur Lake Palace, Lake Pichola, Rajasthan, India

I had a great interview with Sadar Khan, a hotel manager. He remembers monkeys, hundreds of them, climbing on vehicles, even on people. They were trying to run away from the zombies. This was all happening on a chaotic mountain road. Sadar saw a bus go over the edge. I would be freaking out. I wouldn't know what to say. I would try to stop myself from crying. Sergeant Mukherjee grabbed Sadar by the arm and told him to drive away with him. And he noticed on the sergeants lap that there was a detonator. His plan was to close all the mountain passes to the living dead. He's going to blow up the road. sergeant was going to wait till the zombies got there. Then sergeant looked at something over Sadar's head, he whipped around and saw General Raj-Singh. The general then stated that the road had to be destroyed immediately. Sergeant Mukherjee handed the detonator over to the general. He then pressed his thumb on then power button. Nothing happened. There was no reaction. The problem was that something had gone wrong with the charges that were buried half a kilometer down the road. General Raj-Singh told us to go. The explosion happened and everyone was going crazy. I would go crazy too if there was an explosion. I would find the saftest place to hide. It was so chaotic that the people ran over Sadar and became very hurt. He pulled himself under a microbus. He heard the zombies coming. He got out under the microbus and saw no one. Then Sadar heard a moan. I was the living dead, they were still after him.

Bohdan Taras Kondratiuk,Yevchenko Veterans' Sanatorium, Odessa, Ukraine

I met Bohdan Taras Kondratiuk, a war hero, in a room with out windows, dim, fluorescent bulbs, concrete walls, and unwashed cots. People here suffered from disorders. He first started the conversation with one word, chaos. Bohdan and his men just fought four brutal engagements. They were exhausted. Keiv was supposed to be the new safety zone. The safety zone was being shifted again, this time to Crimea. Keiv was being evacuated. Their company was ordered to oversee the escape route at Patona Bridge. Even before the crisis, it was a nightmare of traffic jams. Bohdan's men and random people were forced to do traffic patrol and infection patrol. I would hate that job because it would take forever.He said." How are we supposed to check for infection without dogs." There was so much chaos, fights broke out. People were getting severally injured. They'ed given up on the evacuation and were going to kill everyone. Jets were going to bomb the bridge. Bohdan was running and jumped in the nearest tank. It wasn't a bomb, it was a gas. It was RVX, It starts out as rain: tiny, oily droplets that cling whatever they contact. It enters through the pores, the eyes, the lungs. He said you could see the evacuees' limbs beginning to tremble, arms falling to their sides as the agent worked to their central nervous system. I would vomit if I ever saw that happening. It would be horrific. Bohdan ordered their company to withdraw, to head southwest and keep going. The last thing he saw in Keiv was Motherland, the tallest building in the city.

Philip Adle, Armagh, Ireland

I had a chat with Philip Adle. He stated that Hamburg, Germany was heavily infected. Zombies were everywhere. Civilians were trying to flee. Philip set up a command post in the Renaissance Hotel. They were running out of ammo from fighting the zombies. Philip and his men were under strict orders to run away and leave the civilians behind. I would have been very surprised to hear that, just like Philip was. He told Yang that he couldn't leave them behind. The people needed protection. But they ended up retreating. Philip wanted to kill General Lang. He stated that Lang knew that this was just the first step of a long war and we were all going to need men like him to help win it. Phil also said you have to make your own choices and live every agonizing day with the consequence of those choices. That is very well said because making choices is part of life, and if you make a bad one, you have to suffer the consequences. 

Gavin Blaire, Parnel National Guard Base: Memphis, Tennesse, USA

I chatted with Gavin Blaire, who pilots one of the D-17 combat dirigibles. He first said that there was a huge traffic jam on highway I-80. I hate being stuck in traffic. I have no patience. Anything you could drive, was stretched on the horizon. All types of items were lined on the road, suitcases, boxes, and pieces of furniture. There were even abandoned cars. He then mentioned that there were lots of people on foot, walking along the road. Then the traffic started to move a little better. People were flashing their lights and bumping the cars in front of them. Later, people were starting to run, carrying their belongings, and their children. I would be freaking out if I was in one of those cars in the traffic. I would be saying," What is going on here!" Creatures were swarming among the cars. They were reaching in the windows pulling people out or pulling themselves in. If one of those animals came in my car, I would ... I will not say because it may be a little too violent. This crisis would not be a great experience.

Breck Scott, Vostok Station: Antarctica

I had a very interesting conversation with Breck Scott. We met in "The Dome", which is a green house that draws power in from the Vostok Station geothermal plant. I was very cold in Antarctica. Temperatures have been recorded at a world record at negative eighty nine degrees Celsius. With these condition, it took very long to reach the station. Breck does not understand economics. He was the first ones to come up with a real vaccine for rabies. He never tested it on an actual victim. Breck stated that people used to take flu shots all the time and they never knew it was the right strain. I would definitely use that vaccine if I had rabies. Beck made money on home purifiers, care purifiers; his biggest seller was the little doodad you wore around your neck when you got on a plane. He stated that some guy in Florida was bitten and used Phalanx. He was then cured. Breck made lots of money selling this prescription drug and the stock market rose. The press then stated there was no wonder drug and that caused the Great Panic. While i was talking to Breck, he said very inappropriate words. I was very confused when he was talking about Phalanx and how the Great Panic accrued.

Kwang Jingshu, The United Federation of China

I had a great talk with Kwang Jingshu, a medical doctor. He just never stopped talking. He also mentioned that there was no running water, and no electricity and power in Chongqing. I would have a very difficult time living there. He told me the story how the "plague" began. It began when a twelve year old child and his father went "moon fishing", diving for treasure among the sunken ruins of the Three Gorges Reservoir, and the boy was bitten. How can something so violent and contagious end up being in the water. Was it a small shark? I have no clue.He didn't see what bit him because the water was too dark. Later, there were six patients that had this "infection". They all had similar symptoms, and all had similar wounds in various parts of there body. "Patient Zero", the boy, was in horrible condition. His skin was cold and gray and Kwang Jingshu couldn't find a pulse. He was moving uncontrollably. Dr. Jingshu had to call the largest villagers to help him hold the boy down to get a blood sample. His blood was brown. This little outbreak couldn't spread throughout he whole world, can it?
