(narrator is a young but haggard female, speaking softly)
Visual: Black Screen
Narrator: It began with the plague. The dead walking?.eating..(choked up to the point where her words fail, momentarily)
Visual: Show ragged, bloody corpses rising up to shamble, then a man being pulled into a mass of dragging arms and teeth, just before being ripped apart, zooming out to show the whole city crawling with zombies.
Narrator: We tried to contain it. We failed.
Visual: Continue zooming to show the city from far above, with the shining star of a bomb falling on it, then the explosion erupts into a mushroom cloud and wipes the city away. ?we failed? comes as the blast burns outward and the screen blacks.
Narrator: Now, only scattered sparks of humanity remain.
Visual: Fade back in on survivor camps and people erecting barricades, manning the walls with guns, and watching the night fall.
Narrator: Now, more nightmares have risen from the dark to battle for control of our world.
Visual: Show a quick shot of a vampire leaping down on a person at night, a werewolf loping through a forest beneath a full moon, and a girl?s ghost floating hauntingly above a field of bodies.
Narrator: Our only hope lies with you; heroes. The last specks of light on this?Black?Earth?
Visual: Show humans gearing up, manning the walls of a settlement, firing into an advancing horde of zombies as two are trapped outside the gates. One draws a sword, the other a pair of pistols, and the camera finishes with a close shot of an advancing zombie?s lifeless face. As she says the line, fade out to an image of the earth at night, lit up all over, as the lights slowly wink out until all is black, and then the words BLACK EARTH rise from below to sit over the globe as it spins.
