THE GREAT NOVELIST'S LAST WORDS
Damn it all to hell!
Will anyone actually read this? After I've become food for these carrion crazies, I wonder if the GIs who closed up the city will find my corpse and chuckle.
Help me! Are we screwed? I don't want to die. I want to live!
My wife, daughter, mother, my entire family have been killed. But that's behind me now.
My own life is of far greater importance.
Had I known I would end up dying so abruptly, I'd never have become a salesman and the like.
What I wanted was to become a novelist. To hell with my mother's bullshit about "having a long life ahead of me"! I would've been acclaimed as The Great Novelist, Dario Rosso

偉大なる小説家の遺言
くそったれ!
誰かこれを読む者はおるのか。わたしが死肉狂いどものエサになった後、街を閉鎖していたGIどもが見つけて笑うのだろうか。
助けてくれ!もう駄目なのか?死にたくない。まだわたしは生きていたい!
妻も娘もお袋も、家族はみんな殺された。しかしそんなことはもういい。
はるかに重要なのはわたし自身の命の事だ。
こんな唐突に終わりがくるのなら、営業マンになんぞならなかった。
わたしは小説家になりたかったんだ。「お前の人生は長いのだから」などというお袋のたわごとはクソ食らえだ!わたしは偉大な小説家ダリオ・ロッソとして賞賛され

DARIO'S MEMO
I can't help but wonder if anyone will read these words, but writing them will help me maintain my sanity if nothing else.
After I've become a meal for those undead monsters, will the G.I.s responsible for sealing off the town laugh upon discovering my corpse?
So is this how it's supposed to end? I don't want to die.
I'm just not ready...
My wife, daughter, mother... My entire family has been killed. But none of that matters anymore. Right now, my life is the only important thing. That's all that matters.
I never would have pictured my end to be like this. I had so much left to do. Rather than becoming a salesman, I should
have tried my hand at being a novelist. It's what I've always wanted, but my mother would only tell me you have a long way to go.
Why did I ever listen to her?
But this looks like the end for the great Dario Rosso, novelist extraordinaire.
