Motorway Services Suck

They did their best to ignore the carnage around them that Saturday morning as they left Berwick-upon-Tweed and got out onto a dual carriageway as quickly as possible. It was impossible to really take in the total change to a world you have known your whole life in less than two days.

Is that all it had been, a few days? Mused Ven.

Driving as fast as she dared Ven tried her best to stay focused, keep regular checks in the mirror to see that Tomas was fine, and to try to keep her eyes on the road ahead. Definitely not on the acts of extreme depravity going on around her. Or the ever growing gangs of menacing looking people who were still alive, that seemed to be forming on a more and more regular basis. They ignored them all, and luckily nobody actually tried to stop their vehicle.

The faster roads meant some relief from the horrors. There were a number of pile-ups, cars in ditches, and plenty of fires where people had obviously been looking at devices with image viewing capabilities but it was better than suburbia. You would think that people in cars were safe from infection but the all pervasive 'always connected' world of the present meant that there were plenty of opportunities for the botnet to extend its influence into the lives of commuters, holiday makers, shoppers, mums on a late school run to pick the kids up after sports practice, or the truck driver wearily winding his way from one end of the country to the other.

Passing by overturned vehicles or abandoned cars they could see some of the effects the botnet had produced on those happily cocooned in their vehicles until the infection hit.

Kids that had been playing on iPads, using smartphones to insult their school friends on Facebook — it was all a death sentence for them and anyone else in the vehicle.

Watching TV on the flip down screen meant a zombie induced death by little Daisy in the back. If the car didn't crash and they all burned to death before she could bite chunks out of her little brother and her mom first.

An OAP holiday coach, impossible to see into, the windows so dark with gore and blood, probably still occupied by a few full bellied zombies, infected by something as innocuous as checking their itinerary on some app their eldest child had installed and shown them how to use.

Tomas had been amazing so far, the horrors around him had not registered in any meaningful way yet. At three months old his vision was simply not good enough to make sense of the scenes occurring, although Ven had done her very best to shield him from it whenever she possibly could. But babies do have strong senses, and a long drive was something that was definitely alien to the young one. Trips were normally short, interspersed with stops, cheek pinches from strangers, and lots of "Ooh, how old is he?" and plenty of regular feeds.
