DEAD ERA- Afterworld Apple of the power
The stranger wakes up to see himself hung on the ceiling. His entire body hurts, and his wrists ache. He looks at the restraints around his wrists and ankles, they hold him securely to the roof. His legs are tied together using a rope. He tries to pull on the ropes but it doesn't budge. He tries again, but the rope remains attached to the top of the ceiling. He starts screaming and shouting profanities. He stops when he sees Dead Man enter the shack and walk to a spot beside him. He grabs his chin roughly and tilts it upward until their eyes meet. Dead Man smiles at him.“Why am I here?” he screams.Dead Man stares at the man for an awkward amount of time before answering, “you will answer the questions if you survive”“What question? What do you want from me?!” he yells, struggling against the binds“Where is the apple?” a voice responds bluntly.

DEAD ERA- Afterworld What if we were out of ammo
Liz and Paul with the other survivors who all held up their guns could be seen walking into an abandoned Club. “Keep your eyes open for Zombie," Liz says. “There could be more nearby"The rest of the group followed her instructions, keeping watch as they made their way to the back of the club, where a small crowd of people was crowded around the table playing cards. The crowd suddenly became silent, as everyone stared intently at something across the room.A tall man wearing a black suit stepped out of the shadows. Behind him were soldiers aiming their guns at them.“Welcome," he said in a deep voice "to the party!" “Who are you and what do you want?" one survivor yells from behind the table.The man laughs heartily and turns around. He walks over and stands beside one of the soldiers, resting his arm on his shoulder. He has dark hair and blue eyes with a sharp chin, and he seems rather fit and muscular. He looks to be quite handsome if you weren't focused on him. “What's goin

Liz looked frightened by Paul's statement. “I think I know where we need to go now,” she tells him quietly, glancing towards the window. “There's a way out of here”They stand up and walk towards the window together. They move closer to the edge of the window but stop when the sound becomes louder. It sounds like hundreds of feet stomping across the concrete floor, accompanied by an animalistic roar, followed by the sound of breaking glass, followed by a scream.Both Liz and Paul glance over the side of the building and see several armed men running towards

She lands with a thud on the ground below and quickly moves to hide behind a large tree trunk.
DEAD ERA- Afterworld Sneak Through Escape
Paul follows her, grabbing a branch and carefully lowering himself onto the ground so he could reach the ground more easily. When he was safely on the ground, he stands beside Liz.“We have to find out which direction it went,” Liz says.“It might be gone," Paul warns.Liz nods, looking around the area. She points towards a small gap between two trees.“I think this might be our best chance"Paul and Liz walk forward slowly, keeping their heads low in case they encounter any enemies. After they made it about 30 meters they hear footsteps approaching from behind them.Paul pulls Liz into an alleyway and holds his hand up to silence her as he peers around the corner. He listens carefully. After several seconds the footsteps fade away and Paul slowly relaxes. Once he's certain nobody has been following them, he motions for Liz to follow him once more. They move cautiously along the alleyway toward the end.As soon as the light hits his eyes, he gasps. Liz notices the horrified look on
DEAD ERA- Afterworld Charles rage
Liz clenches her fists tightly in frustration. “Look, I don't have time for a joke man. Just tell me where he went” she insists.“Why should I do anything for you? You're not our boss”Before Liz can react, someone comes storming up behind her and yanks her backward forcefully, sending her crashing onto the ground. She tries to struggle free of whoever had grabbed her, but it was useless. She couldn't fight back. Her captor roughly grabs her arm and lifts her until her feet dangle above the ground. Liz kicks and flails about wildly, kicking her attacker hard in the stomach. However, her attacks seem to fail. She hears him grunt, her kicks feel useless. Suddenly, something cold and hard presses itself against her throat.She freezes and her struggles cease instantly.“Don't even bother struggling,” the man snarls threateningly as his grip tightens around her neck. Liz closes her eyes and prepares herself to die.Just as suddenly, her assailant fall
DEAD ERA- Afterworld BEAST OF RAGE
“I know the creature is close by, but we need to evacuate the prisoners from the building before—” suddenly the elevator stopped moving followed by a roar that hooked the whole building. “That's the creature's rage” Liz looks at him in confusion. “Anger?” she asks. “What does that mean?"Paul glances down at Liz as the doors open with a ding and steps out. “The creature may look like a beast, but its emotions are much more complex than that. Its anger is pure rage fueled by fear, fear fueled by pain, and pain fueled by loneliness. It's driven by hate, hate-fueled by grief. That's why it's called the Beast of New York"“You must have lost your mind,” Elizabeth whispers incredulously. Paul shakes his head as they step out of the elevator and approach the cell doors. “I wouldn't say that, Liz. I wouldn't call what I saw a hallucination if it was just a hallucination. You see, the reason I said 'no one can resist being drawn to this place is that I b
DEAD ERA- Afterworld Lost in the maze 1
The group is led through a maze of hallways and then down stairs to a basement. The room is dark and musty smelling. An old iron gate is sitting on a platform in the middle of the room and a couple of men are standing next to it. There is a large metal padlock attached to the front gate. Two guards stand guard outside the gate. A loud noise catches the group’s attention and the doors of the lift begin to slide open.Liz looks up and sees another security guard standing behind the two men, holding a gun pointed directly at them. She stares wide-eyed at the guard before quickly averting her gaze, focusing instead on the floor. After the elevator door has slid shut once again, she turns back to look at the guards.One of them smiles at her slightly, "I'm sorry Miss Jones. No visitors permitted under any circumstances." He reaches up and pats her head playfully. "I bet they'll let you through though. It's nice to see a young woman getting some exercise, hm?"The other guard smiles malicio

The End
Hours later the ship was heading towards a car junk as a ship horned loudly, signaling the end of their journey. Roy turns to look at Kori as she stands up, “Let’s go” she said while walking toward the door leading below deck. Roy gets up and starts following her, keeping his distance from everyone else, knowing that they have many questions they want to be answered.When they arrive at the bottom of the stairs, Kori opens the door to one of the rooms, entering before Roy. Roy quickly follows her inside the room and closes the door behind them. He stops walking and turns around to face Kori, “So where do I begin?” he said.“How about the beginning” Kori suggests.“Alright….so let me start by asking you a question...why do you think I’m going to stay here...when I should be trying to find a way out,” Roy asks.“There is a good chance that this mission will turn into a battle. If we stay here until then, the army will capture and use you as a bargaining chip. While that may seem harsh,

Deceits Unseen1
“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. We never wanted to burden the other and risk losing wh

Mission begins
“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

The Past
Roy could hear whispers then he opens his eyes to find himself being pulled across the hallway toward the exit that shone a bright light on his face. His body is hanging loosely from the straps of a chair. He groans slightly as he feels every movement his body makes as he is dragged across the smooth surface of the floor. 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. Then something slams him on the back. “What kind of father do you think the general is? wanting his son dead” he could hear someone talking outHe’s thrown across the floor outside, as the got searching sun burnt through his eyes. later he hears the door close far from him, then he could hear footsteps coming closer to him.

Back to Reality
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

When they start to get hungry, they decide to grab some lunch, deciding to eat in the cafeteria since it is the most popular place to go for lunch. They find a table outside and sit down to eat their lunch.“Have you ever been to the library before?” Trisha asks after eating.“No” Roy admits. 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. Are you planning on coming here tomorrow?” Roy inquires hopefully“Maybe” Trisha responds quietly. Suddenly, Roy feels her tighten her grip on his hand. The sight causes him to turn to face her, noticing that her cheeks are bright pink.“Trisha” he says worriedly as he reaches out towards her “Is everything alright?”“Yes,” she says hurriedly “I mean yes I’m fine I’m ju

Meanwhile, at the military camp...the soldiers were all having fun shooting the zombies meters close to them as they ran around wildly trying to kill them. Some of them are aiming for areas where the zombies weren't moving, hoping for a lucky shot at a zombie who had died due to its wounds being fatal.One soldier is standing alone in front of the group of soldiers, trying to aim with his rifle. He fires off two shots and hits a zombie, causing it to collapse and die. He aims again and fires, missing the zombie by a couple of feet this time. With a sigh, he puts the rifle onto the ground and begins to walk away when he suddenly hears a noise coming from behind him and turns around surprised.Just then a large man runs up to the soldier, grabs him roughly by the collar of his shirt, and drags him off to the tent where he throws him unceremoniously on the floor before leaving and locking the door behind him.

A new beginning 2
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. He spots the boy that he had spoken to earlier lying on the ground, still sound asleep, with a bunch of toy sheep laying nearby.The boy suddenly opens his eyes and s
