Chapter 6

Cooper

When it had been decided—or rather, volunteered—that I would fill the new president in on one of the best-kept secrets in U.S. history, I wasn’t sure what my reception was going to be like.

He was having breakfast in his lovely, well-protected home here at Camp David. We’d already cautioned him that he needed to remain in the bunkers, but he was ignoring our warnings.

The secret service guards let me pass, and I walked into the large room where the lone man was eating his meal.

“Ah, Cooper, they’ve sent you to talk some sense into me, eh?” The president wiped his mouth and waved for me to take a seat.

“Not exactly, sir,” I responded. We hadn’t really had much to do with each other before, but I knew he wasn’t as aggressive as we needed him to be in regards to the current situation.

“You might as well have some breakfast while you’re at it. No point in wasting the food, especially if the world is going to be ending.”

I tried not to grimace as the man responsible for making all the important decisions for the Unites States of America, seemed to had all but given up. Maybe I could change his mind and convince him that all wasn’t lost, not yet.

“Thank you.” I accepted a plate of food from one of the kitchen staff. “We’ll need to have the room cleared for a while. I’ve let the agents know.”

They moved out of the room and closed the doors, making sure that no one was eavesdropping on this important information.

“Well, get on with it. I’m sure it can’t be any worse than what we’re facing right now.” He gestured with his fork.

“This is top secret information, and normally, even the president isn’t read in unless an incident actually happens.”

“This has happened before, and the general public just thought it was something else?” He had pushed back from the table and was watching me carefully.

“Yes, sir. We’ve never had a full attack on U.S. soil before, but the threat has been active since the First World War. Although, there have been mentions of this happening all the way back through history—” I had just started my explanation, but he interrupted.

“What you’re trying to tell me is that zombie infected things, or ZITs, as you’ve termed them, have been around for over a thousand years?” He couldn’t contain his doubt.

“That’s correct, sir. If you think back to such things as the Black Plague, that was when the ZITs almost won out by erasing humanity. Then you also have such instances of the Smallpox virus, and the antidotes that were given to most of America at that point.”

The President held up a hand. “Hold on. You’re trying to tell me that Smallpox was another version of the thing that’s infecting entire cities at this very moment? Why are we not vaccinating against it right now?”

I nodded, understanding that most of this would come as quite a shock, but he needed to hear the whole story.
