   Heroes are always born. Their sole purpose is to counteract the malevolence. Whether it`s a pitiful peasant rising up to defeat the evildoings of an upperclassmen or a once cowardly knight slicing through that doubt to destroy the dooming dragon or simply a humble man or woman speaking up for what`s right, a hero always triumphs in the end.


   Villains are always dead. But, they don`t care that they are destined to lose because pillaging citizens and rocketing to the top with power is what their sole purpose is. Whether it`s a misunderstood criminal seeking revenge or a politician striving for control of the world or a malefactor bringing the blade to other`s throats because the red excites them, a villain will never win in the end.


   But . . . what if I told you that there was a way . . . for villains to never die—to never lose. The creatures that were once just like us will not fall to the ground. Pain does not affect them, for they will keep walking. Feelings do not affect them, for they will keep fighting. Hope and prayer do not affect them, for they will keep eating. When the dead reanimate, they cannot be stopped.


Riding on horses,
The heroes come in silver clad.
Nothing stops their forces,
The heroes come when the world is mad.

Villains shrink with fear,
For the heroes have come.
Slice! Off their limbs with battle gear,
Slit! Their throats with blades sheer,
Spit! On their bodies and drink cold beer.
For the heroes have come to slay the sneered.

When the dead arise,
The heroes will come . . .
You will hear their cries,
And their calls for mum.
Red rains from the skies
In thick thumps and drums.

Where are the heroes?
Everyone has fled.
Where are the heroes?
They`ve eaten the children`s heads.
Where are the heroes?
Their wrath has spread.
Where are the heroes . . .
How can evil be defeated,
If the heroes are all dead?
So here`s a prologue . . . . . . but I don`t have a title ;_;
If you`ve ever read any of my walking dead stories, then you know this seems the same. Well, I`m completely discontinuing it and restarting my own story that doesn`t have to do with the walking dead. I`m still using Terry, so I`ll have the same cover.

Not sure how I felt about this song I wrote, but here you all go, enjoy!

ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR A NICE TITLE WILL BE TAKEN KINDLY C:
