Introduction
They'll use anything as a weapon, normally ripping themselves apart disregarding the pain, to make themselves more efficient at killing. As long as they get a meal, they don't care what happens to them. Their mind tells them that flesh and blood will ease the pain, moving it to a bearable level. This is mainly due to the fact that the virus does indeed feed on flesh, and more flesh in the stomach is a temporary relief.
Although the zombie population is still small, about 500, it's considered a major threat. They're too dispersed, however, to just nuke and leave. The government hasn't even been able to pinpoint them yet due to small groups of the creatures simply popping up, wiping out small groups of humans, then moving on.
Now, there are of course certain cities where it's known the zombies have been slowly infecting the people either from a scratch or coming in contact with an eaten corpse left behind after the meal. The story begins in one of these such places, a new victim of the plague slowly losing his mind as he prepares to attack a local store.
On the flip side, there are always those few talented people who decide to make it their job to find and hunt the infected. A group of these such people had heard of a zombie popping up in this area and come to the scene, looking for newly infected victims to hunt. The first thing they hear when arriving? The screams of a store owner as he receives his death, brought to him by the hands of one such monster. The hunters flip on their gas masks and prep their weapons, ready for a fight.
Please remember that these are, in deed, humans. Some zombies may have dense muscle allowing for them to be slightly stronger than the average human, but no super powers.

His vision began to blur as thoughts of killing and eating clouded his mind and judgment. He had always had a weak willpower, and it was proving true yet again as his decisions were easily controlled by the flesh eating virus. His brain had probably already been started at, causing him to slowly begin to revert back to a barbaric state.
Looking around, the man noticed a thin metal rod on the ground. Perfect, sharp, the man's thought directed simply as he picked it up and examined it like a gorilla.
He stood up, metal bar in hand, as his full form was revealed. He was a 5'9 man with a fairly muscular body, although it wasn't apparent. The virus had already began eating at the muscle, converting it in to a material more dense than regular muscle, although the side effect was severe pain. His face was pretty normal, that is if the hole that was in his ear cartilage wasn't there.
He looked at the rod once more before shoving it in to his hand, screaming as more pain was added on top of all the previous pain. His mind, however, didn't care. A sharp hard stick was better than the function of a hand. It could be used as a weapon far better and faster than controlled like a tool. The man's mouth began foaming as he took a few steps towards the bar, stumbling before heading forward at a silent run. As he approached the bar, he prepared to jump.
He slammed his hand with the rod in to the stone, watching the expected reaction as his otherwise useless arm held him in place as the metal rod got lodged in to the stone. He swung his other hand up to grab hold of a crevice in the stone before quickly, much more quickly than normally humanly possible, he sent the metal hand flying up again in to yet more stone.
After a few seconds he was at his destination. The bar window at the rafters. He threw himself in, on to the rafters, the glass shattering to the bar floor, although he didn't care if he was noticed or not. It was feeding time, and the patrons were it's prey. He, the helpless victim of a plague of zombies...

Blood and saliva would slowly drip from the hole in the creatures mouth, it's blood red eyes searching the ruins of the bar for a target. It put it's single hand, to it's head, letting out a lower, inaudible moan of pain. It hurt, and what little it had left of a mind was telling it the only way to stop the pain would be to eat. Eat, kill, survive. The three commands running through it's mind. It knew, deep down, that it wouldn't be able to stop what it planned to do. It had lost it's free will, as soon as it had contracted the virus, becoming, in all effects, a [b]Zombie[b]...
A man on the second story of a building sees a man in the distance. Wondering who the person is he takes the nearby binoculars and looks through them. He sees the morbid man, who looks like he just got up from the grave. Worried the man takes his gear and runs outside towards the man. Getting closer he hides behide some debris and grabs the gun on his back. He yells to the man, asking who he is, while leveling the gun towards him.
The only thing to be heard would be a load moan. He would disappear in to the darkness, only to be seen again by the building side as he climbed up to the building roof, most probably seen. It was trying to lure him. It was bringing the prey to the lair. It was hungry, and it wanted food.
The man sees the thing try to climb up the side of the building he was just in. He realizes that the thing wasn't human and quickly shoots at it. He sees that the shot missed and curses. He stops to decide what to do then circles the building and goes into one on the other side and climbs to the top. He sees the creature and gets it in the cross hairs and fires at its right leg.
The zombie wited at the top of the building after the bullets narrowly missed him. After a minute, he noticed the human at the building opposite him. It ducked under the stone ledge surrounding the roof, dodging the bullets that were sent flying past him. It jumped, slamming in to the side of the building Neeron was now on. He threw himself up quickly, hiding behind the small structure that held the stairs to the lower levels of the building, on the opposite side that Neeron was on as he lay in abush, waiting for the man's curiosity to bring him around to see if the zombie was there, as it's instincts told him the human would probably do.
The man was so shocked by the creatures speed he can't move. After a few minutes he returns to normal and decides to pursue it but this time decides to have a little suprise of his own and puts straps the gun to his back while taking a hand gun and a grenade out from his jacket. He sprints to where he saw the creature go and throws the grenade.
A man in a jeep was reading a book when he heared gun fire. He looks up with a surprised look which quickly turns to a worried one. He starts driving to the source of the gun fire in the abandoned town. He stops the jeep next to the building where thinks the shots are coming from grabs his gun and runs to the top. He then sees a grenade explode near the building next to him. Not taking any chances he points his gun in the direction of the building.

Flesh Eaters

Re: [OOC] Flesh Eaters
This plot also allows for side stories to take place since there's no main event so far to the plot. Normal rules apply, such as no God-Modding. Also, don't forget that zombies are barbaric and primitive, that being a good weakness. They aim at whatever hurts them, like a gun rather than the shooter, for example. also, no super humans. This is Earth, not the multiverse.
Oh, and this is a long post Role play, so take your time, think it out, and right a descriptive post. I'm looking for page style, about 250 words a post, although paragraph style or even short essay style are also except able. No one liners please.
