Project 2115

Chapter 3: Holding the Line

The National Guard, having established their presence in Chelsea, began coordinating with the police departments of Chelsea, East Boston, Boston, and Everett, as well as local volunteers, to defend against the outbreak from spreading beyond Boston. Critical points were established at the Tobin Bridge and the Teddy Tunnel in East Boston to keep the zombies contained within the city.

Helicopters patrolled the coast, providing crucial aerial intelligence to the ground forces. The pilots observed that the zombies did not seem to enter the water but instead flooded the bridge and tunnels in unimaginable numbers, a horde of undead stretching as far as the eye could see, their relentless hunger driving them toward the defensive lines.

At WBZ News, Lisa and Tom continued their live coverage from their studio in downtown Boston, the news team barricaded inside the building as the city fell apart around them. Their dedication to reporting the truth and keeping the public informed was nothing short of heroic, as they continued to broadcast despite the ever-present danger closing in around them.

“Breaking news,” Lisa announced, her voice strained but determined. “The National Guard, along with local police departments and volunteers, have established defensive perimeters at the Tobin Bridge and the Teddy Tunnel in East Boston. They are working tirelessly to prevent the outbreak from spreading beyond the city.”

Tom chimed in, his voice filled with admiration for the brave men and women on the front lines. “It’s incredible to see the selflessness and courage displayed by these first responders and volunteers. They’re putting their lives on the line to protect the rest of us, and for that, we owe them a tremendous debt of gratitude.”

As the camera panned out to show aerial footage of the teeming masses of zombies attempting to breach the barricades, Lisa added, “The situation is dire, and the sheer magnitude of the outbreak is staggering. But these brave souls are holding their ground, doing everything in their power to keep the outbreak contained within Boston. We urge everyone outside the city to stay vigilant and adhere to the safety guidelines provided by the authorities.”

As the battle for the bridges and tunnels raged on, the people of Cambridge and surrounding areas did their best to adapt to their new reality. Neighborhood watch groups patrolled the streets, ensuring the safety of their fellow citizens and offering a sense of security in a world gone mad.

Though the night was filled with terror and despair, the resilience of the human spirit shone through the darkness. The citizens of Cambridge, united in their struggle against the undead menace, stood firm, determined to protect their loved ones and their way of life.
