2024-10-29 19:42:56The truck arrived before clem city to see everywhere filled with zombies all trying to force their way through the huge tall-built wall. As the truck pulled to a stop, the others got out of the vehicle, stretching their arms and legs before starting to prepare the vehicle.
Bali approached Andrew, “Are you sure we are gonna make it?”
“let's pray so” Andrew replied as he helped Bali attach the fuel container to the side of the truck.
“So how many have there been so far?” Bali asked curiously.
“I couldn't count” replied Andrew
As if on cue a loud crash echoed through the air. Bali looked up to see one of the towers collapse. A few seconds later an earth-shattering roar was heard. “Oh, God! What does that sound like? What is happening?” Bali cried panicked?“There isn't much time to explain, follow me! We need to find shelter before the horde gets here!” Andrew yelled back. As Bali nodded and grabbed his backpack, the stranger climbed aboard the truck and sped off into the darkness, leaving behind a cloud of dust.
“I knew it. It can't end like this. There has to be a better way.” Bali muttered under his breath
As the trucks made their way through the streets, people ran screaming away, some threw whatever object they had within reach into nearby buildings, smashing it into pieces.
Soon the trucks reached the main road, it was jammed with cars and vans. “That's a lot of zombies” commented the stranger as he scanned the street looking for something useful.
Everyone entered the truck as they started it, crashing into hordes of Zombies as they headed to the city gate, the truck crushed countless bodies, leaving behind pools of blood. After driving for a while the truck stopped exhausted of fuel at mid-way at the entrance of the city.
“Stay close, the zombies might attack us at any moment” warned the stranger.
Everyone followed the stranger as they dodged every attack of the zombies. At one point two of the strangers jumped onto a bus, they ran up the side of the bus until they reached the roof, then jumping onto a ledge they easily avoided the incoming barrage of zombies. The other five joined the strangers on the ledge, each grabbing a handle of one of the handles.
“Ready to run” demanded the stranger.
No one spoke, as they ran away from the zombies. They eventually found a spot to hide, hiding in a small gap between several houses. Once the others realized what had happened, they all relaxed and took a seat on the grass watching the sun slowly rise,“What's the plan now” asked a confused Andrew asked
“We just need to keep on running and escape their attacks,” Bali said
“We go together in 3....2....1....run!” the stranger yelled as they took to their heels again. A few minutes passed, and they slowed their pace, stopping occasionally to look around. Soon enough they saw a large army of zombies following them. They moved faster than they thought, they managed to lose a couple of zombies during that short break but they weren't fast enough.
They were a few meters to the gate when a zombie speared Jonathan to the floor, Andrew turned to help his son smashing the zombie by its face.
The city alarm started to buzz, which echoed around the city as the gate started to close. Vehicles hurried into the city as soldiers shot at zombies attempting to enter the city.
The stranger reached the city gate along with Bali and Levis. “Where are Jonathan and Andrew?” asked Bali“Out there” Levis pointed to where the zombies were attacking Jonathan
“Fuck,” cursed the stranger. “I didn't think they would attack them, we gotta save them”
“How? How do we get them free?” asked the Bali turning to the stranger “You're supposed to be helping us!”
“He's right, how do we get them out” questioned levis looking at the stranger, his face twisted in panic, scared for Jonathan's life
“I don't know,” the stranger replied. He turned to the soldiers, “Could you slow down the gate closure”
“No, we have our orders” a soldier replied
“We are talking about a life here” Bali yelled angrilyTHE CITY GATE CLOSES IN
“10...9...8...7...6....5...4—” a computerized voice said, cutting the soldier's speech.“Well fuck, it” the stranger shouted “you bastards, am sick of your shits!” he shouted before throwing a punch at a soldier's face
Zombies grabbed Andrew by the leg as they started to feed on him, blood poured out of him like a fountain, and his screams echoed throughout the city as more and more zombies devoured him alive.Immediately a bike jumped out through the zombies, parking beside Jonathan
“Get in,” the rider saidJonathan climbed on the bike, “Who are you?” he asked.
“Get on, I won't ask questions”
Jonathan hopped onto the motorcycle, gripping tightly as the bike raced forward through the crowd of zombies. blocking any chance of escape as more zombies swarmed upon them. “2....1....0”
The bike accelerated jumping into the city with the front tire raised as the gate finally closed up. The rider parked the bike and then cracked his knuckles, “Who are you ?”
Jonathan asked“Call me Jake”

“You never did tell me about the explosion," Roy asked while staring at kori “You saved us...you saved the entire city," Kori replies. “From what?” he asked while staring directly at Kori with the image of a lady flashing before his eyes. Kori walks closer to him while kissing him gently on the kisser. Roy closes his eyes and kisses her back, savoring every moment with her. The two continue to enjoy each other's touch, enjoying the feeling of happiness before pulling away. "I'm sorry Roy" Kori apologized quietly as she looked down. “What?” Roy asked confused by what she said “Why are you apologizing? What for?" Kori glances at Roy briefly before looking forward again “It’s just...well...we've both known that we're soulmates since birth. I don't think we’ve ever told each other that we love each other or even admitted that we were attracted to each other. Even though we knew we loved each other, we didn't say anything.

“Okay, I need to grab something out of my backpack. Stay with me, Roy. Please!” he says while walking towards the tree and pulling out one of the many bags he’s carried around. He opens the bag and begins rummaging through it once again. Then he finds what he was looking for: a small box with a few bottles of liquid inside. He quickly runs back to Roy and kneels next to him as fast as he possibly could without losing balance. “We have to get you into my tent, alright? It’s our only chance.” He places the first bottle of saline on the ground and takes the box out of his pocket, opens it, and puts a couple of pills in his mouth. Roy watches the man drink the water in his mouth and then spit it out immediately, almost choking on it as he continues to look for the proper medication. After gulping two pills down he sets the empty bottle aside, and then picks another one up and pops it into his mouth. “Here, take this one,” he says as he hands Roy the bottle, then moves to pick him up brida

He tries opening his eyes again, but he sees nothing except darkness for miles and miles. Then something hits him across the face hard. Pain shoots through his right cheek, making him close his eyes again. Then another blow. And another.

Roy wakes up to find himself floating by the side of the river all drained and wet with some glass pierced right into his stomach. His whole body feels like it’s on fire, from the waist down. The pain radiates throughout his entire body, not just his abdomen but his entire arm and leg are covered in blood. He tries to move his hand, but he can barely budge at all. A dull ache pulses through his head as well. As he stares into the dark water he notices the faint glow coming off of its surface of it, the reflection of moonlight against the dark green water. The air around him is still. Roy can hear nothing except for the sounds of his shallow breathing. Then there’s a movement out of the corner of his eye. Roy turns his head sharply as he hears footsteps approaching him. The sound doesn’t seem very loud though. Maybe they are underwater?The figure emerges out of the shadows. “What the hell happened?” says a familiar voice. That’s the guy who found him. It’s gotta be a trick of his min

He has always liked learning new things about other countries but there were some subjects that his father wouldn’t allow him to study. He was allowed to read historical novels about various countries, but nothing more.“I think I’d like to visit someday soon” Trisha admits “Perhaps after the festival is over”“That sounds great.

The next morning Roy wakes up from bed feeling normal, strong, and healthy. He walks out of the tent only to see several soldiers and officers walking around the area. They were dressed in uniforms, and all seemed very busy.Roy notices a woman standing near the tent. She is talking animatedly to someone who is standing behind a wooden bench. As he gets closer he recognizes the woman. She’s wearing a blue dress, and she’s chatting away with one of the guards in Arabic, both of them laughing together while pointing to something in their hands. One of the guards places a hand on the woman’s hip, and they share another laugh while leaning into each other's embrace and resting against each other for a short moment, which ends in them embracing fully. Roy looks at them for a second before turning back towards his destination.
