The Great Panic

This chapter lets the reader see what it was like when people around the world finally realized that the apocalypse was really happening. Everyone panicked and, in the chaos, did anything they could to protect what was their's. People tried escaping to other states or countries, only to find out there was no escape. A soldier talked about how even the military's strongest weapons and fighting tactics had no effect on the zombies, and how horrifying it was to get down to their last defense and still be unable to protect themselves, let alone win or do much damage at all. Another man told about his experience attempting to flee his country aboard a boat, watching people drown, reanimate underwater, and pull another person under. No one was prepared to deal with something this major, which caused the Great Panic.
