As I was walking, I suddenly heard a loud shout. So, I immediately ran and went to the voice I heard. I just stopped when I saw some zombies cornering a woman inside the cell. So, I raised the gun I was holding to shoot them in the head, but I was suddenly discouraged, so I lowered it and I just hit them with a wooden bat. The woman is still screaming as she sat on the side and closed her eyes. I slowly got closer to her, so I helped her to her feet and she clung tightly to the back of my shirt.“Just calm down, don't shout. You make them come here even more when you're making noise. So just calm yourself down.” When I said that, she immediately closed her mouth and covered it with one hand. “Just follow me and don't go away from behind me, do you understand?” I said, and then she just nodded her head.I helped her get out of that cell, and we got away safely from the zombies earlier. Furthermore, I stopped for a moment and caught my breath.“T-thank you for saving me.” She was stutte
“Laura. My name is Laura.” The woman next to me whispered to me. I turned to her and our eyes met. But I also immediately avoided looking at her eyes and turned my attention to what was happening outside.A short smile drew on my lips, but I didn’t show it to her. I also felt excitement from my heart that seemed to jump for joy. However, what I felt for her, I put aside first and did not pay attention. I was afraid that I might not be able to protect her and that she might disappear from my life, as well as the departure of people who have been a part of my life before.So, I didn’t send in my feelings for her. Instead, I took courage in front of her and pretended not to care about her.Soon the armed men left. I heard her sigh and she seems so scared. But I did not look at her, but stood up and barely peeked outside.“Who are those people?” I was shocked when she approached me and put her shoulder on my arm. So, I step away from her a little and didn't look back.“We'd better get out
There is only one life of a human. So, as long as there is still hope to change all your mistakes or if you still have things you haven’t done in your life, start planning now. Because you never know what will happen tomorrow and when God will take back the life he has lent you.In these moments as I was fighting for my life, suddenly a lot of things entered my mind and my mother was one of them. Maybe if I had just listened to her before and if I had just followed her advice to me, this would not have been the end of my life. I wouldn’t be here in jail today, and could be the two of us are still together until now. Might be I protected her and did something for her.My hearts were full of remorse. That I almost lost hope and felt like I just wanted to give up. I didn't realize that tears were already dripping from my eyes as I fought the zombie that was on top of me. At that time, it seemed like I just wanted to let go and let him kill me. After all, my life is useless and there is n
“What are you saying? I almost believe in you.” Simon said with a streak of smile on his lips. I just also smiled and turned my head.I was silent for a few minutes when the two men I had encountered earlier suddenly approached me.“About what happened earlier, we apologize to you. I hope you will forgive us.” A man said as he handed me a choco pie. I looked down at the food he was giving me and I accepted it.“We were just really scared earlier, so we did that.” One of his companions said that, so I turned my gaze to him.“Let's forget about that.” I just responded to them and they both smiled.“I'm Ramil, and he's my younger brother, Raven.” Ramil said, so I introduced myself also to them.“Just call me Sixto.” I said, and then they nodded. Kaiser and Simon approached us to introduce themselves to the two brothers as well. Thereafter, we were talking a bit and laughing when I suddenly looked in the direction of Laura and Zero. They have been talking for a while, and it looks like th
We all heard loud screams, so I opened my eyes and then got up. I realized that it was Ramil who shouted as he stood in front of the window.“What's happening to him? Why is he shouting?” Kaiser asked who was next to me, and then he stood up to approach him.“Ramil, what's the problem?” He asked him once, he put one hand on his shoulder. Ramil turned to him with tears in his eyes and a frown on his forehead.“R-Raven …” He uttered as he trembled with fear. I got up and approached him as well. I glanced at what he had been looking at out the window and backed away when I saw zombies fasting his brother's body while his eyes were open.Simon, Laura, and Zero also approached us. Even they were shocked at what they saw and covered their mouths.“How did that happen to him? He's just with us here, isn't?” Simon whispered, and I looked at Ramil who was looked down while crying.It was impossible for Raven to leave the room because we all knew how scared he was of zombies. Besides, he had no
“This Raven is intelligent. They are very different from his older brother Ramil.” My father's voice as I quietly peeked at the door and was inside my dark room.When I was only seven years old, I got used to the fact that all their attention was focused only on me. I buy all the toys I want to buy, and I always hear good compliments from other people. But all of that has suddenly changed since my dad introduced Raven to me. He was Dad's son with another woman, and it was only then that Mom and I found out that he had another child and family before we became his family.My mother was very hurt because of that. I witnessed how she gradually sank into extreme loneliness and how she became addicted to alcohol. Morning to night, I often caught up with her in the kitchen. Sitting alone while crying and drowning in alcohol.As her son, I had a grudge against my father. I was angry with him, and I hated him as my father. Occasionally, I even tell myself that I wish I had never been born int
I thought that when we became close to each other, the good things in my life would continue, but it didn't.“Don't forget that he is your rival to your father. If you just let him enter your life, he will just destroy you and use you to take all your inheritances from your father.” The word I will never forget, my mother whispered to me.Despite everything, she still couldn’t accept Raven as my brother. She was very angry with him and hated him, especially when she saw him in our house.Because of that, I gradually avoided and moved away from Raven. I don't want to stay away from him, but I can't do anything because my mother is more important to me because she is the only one I have in my life.It seems that over time he has noticed that I am avoiding him. So, he confronted me and asked about the matter. But I could answer nothing but to drive him away and leave me alone.In those moments, I did not realize that tears were dripping from my eyes. I wondered to myself why I was crying
“I really didn't like what happened, and I'm ready to take responsibility for the sin I committed, but my older brother convinced me to hide the crime and keep the truth a secret from our parents.” Suddenly, I stood up to what Raven said in front of the supreme court. I couldn’t believe he was going to reverse the story and make it appear that I was the mastermind of everything. “That's not true …” I kept saying in my mouth as he looked at me sharply with tears in his eyes. As a result, the burden on my case increased, and I lost all hope of being released from that prison. I tried to fight for the truth, but I just failed, and he won with his plans. I retaliated with a strong punch to his face for what he did. But instead of being angry with me, he just grinned and stared at me. “Why did you do that? Why did you lie?” I shouted at him as I held him tightly by his collar. He grinned first before he responded to me. “Do you feel the way I felt when you cheated on me? What can you sa
I punched him hard in the face, which surprised him, and he quickly fell to the floor. I was about to punch him again, but his bodyguards immediately stopped me and helped him stand up. He raised his right hand to signal them to let me go, and then I quickly came to him and pulled him by his collar while I was looking at him angrily. “Where did you take my friends? What did you do to them?” I said to him as I held him tightly. His bodyguards were about to approach me to stop me and take me away from him, but he immediately raised his two hands and then nodded his head causing them to back away from the two of us. “I don't know what you're talking about. We didn't find anyone else there but you. Believe me or not, but that's the truth.” His response was, but I didn't believe what he was saying because I know what kind of person he is. That's why I pulled him closer to me as I looked at him intently. “You're a liar. Did you think you could fool me? Maybe you were able to fool your own
“Sixto!” I turned to the voice I heard. I saw Simon, Luigi, and Wendy as they smiled at me. They called me and invited me to join them, but I remained standing where I was as I was stunned by them. What are these things I see? Are they really in front of me now? I whispered to myself when suddenly Luigi came to me and grabbed my hand which made me look at him and thereafter, we run towards the car. I was confused by what was going on, and I couldn't quite understand what was really going on, but I was happy to see them again. While we were riding in the car, I looked around where everything was peaceful and there was no disturbance to be seen there. How it's good to feel the fresh breeze as well as the beautiful sunrise that seems to be dancing with the clouds. I let out a sigh of relief because of the lightness of my feeling and I turned to look at Luigi, Simon, and Wendy again but suddenly the smile from my lips disappeared when I realized that they were not there, they disappeared
When I regained consciousness, I heard a defibrillator that seemed to be close to me. “Sixto, can you hear me?” the voice I kept hearing as I slowly opened my eyes. It was blurry at first, but gradually my vision returned to normal. I looked around my entire surroundings with a trace of wonder on my face, and I don't know where I am now besides that I can't move my whole body and I can't feel anything. What is happening to me, and where am I? I whispered to myself that a man approached me while he was wearing a white uniform, at the same time he shined a blinding light in my eyes. I tried to open my mouth, but no sound came out of my mouth. Wait, what's really going on? Am I just dreaming? I wondered to myself and tried to close my eyes again, thinking I was just dreaming. But when I opened my eyes again, I was still where I was, but suddenly all the people around me disappeared. Until I heard heavy footsteps that seemed to be heading towards where I was. I tried to get up and move
“Sixto are you alright?” Wendy asked me worriedly as she put a white towel on my back while I focused my attention on Anna, who was now wrapped in my clothes. “Don't worry because I'm fine.” The only thing I responded to was, and I placed Anna's head on the back side, and then I started the car while Simon and Luigi followed behind us. I was speechless during those moments and didn't realize that I had been awake for two days just driving. I don't eat, I don't even drink a drop of water. Furthermore, I just focused my attention on what I was driving until suddenly, I felt a headache, so I stopped the car for a while. Wendy woke up and turned to me worriedly. “Sixto, what is wrong?” she said as she touched my forehead where she felt the extremely hot temperature of my body, besides that, she noticed my pale face. “You're not in a good condition, so rest first, okay?” She added at the same time I removed her hand, which surprised her. “No, I won't stop. They have to pay for what they
Because we had difficulty in searching, we just decided to go to the capital city of our country where we can see the president, and it seems that it would be better for the two of us to face each other to clarify all the questions that are bothering my mind. We thought of getting out of that city, but we were immediately stunned when we got to the road out of that place. Simon and I both got out of the car and then looked up at something hanging up there. “What's the problem?” Wendy was curious as she walked towards us and then Luigi immediately follow her. Suddenly, Wendy screamed loudly at what she saw and in her shock she stepped back but lost her balance, so she sat on the ground. “Jesus, who the devil could have done this to her?” I heard Luigi say as he stood next to me. I can't speak, I can't move where I am, and I can't take my eyes off what I see now. Furthermore, I couldn't quite believe it, and I didn't expect anything about that thing where Anna's severed head was hangi
“Do you think we'll ever be able to return to our normal bodies?” when I heard what he said, I couldn't answer him immediately. I just let out a deep breath. I don't even know if we can go back to the way we were or if we can live as a normal human being. “If you had to choose between the two, what would you choose? To go back to your old normal life or to just stay as you are now?” he added, and I slowly looked at him with a trace of astonishment on my face. I don't quiet understand why he decided to ask me about that matter, but it seems that if I ask him about it, he might pick the last one as I feel that he is gradually liking what he is now. So, I just smile and turned to me. “I'm not in the right position to answer about that. I don't even know how long I'll live or how far I'll go. No one can dictate what happens to us in the future or what destiny awaits us.” After I told him that, I stood up and then turned away from him. I was about to get in the car, but I immediately stop
With the help of Luigi and Simon, we immediately caught the group of rebel men and got their guns from them. Just like the three pranksters, we tied their hands behind their backs and then covered their mouths with scotch tape and put them inside the cargo truck. “What exactly are you planning to do with them?” Simon asked me. “My plan will not change. We will hand them over to the police.” I replied to him, then I drink bottle water. “Are you sure we can trust them? What if they just let them go again?” he said with a trace of curious on his face. I took a deep breath and looked around. “I think that if they just release them again, we will have no other choice but to find them and bring them back to them, am I right?” after I told him that, I patted him on the shoulder as I got into the car and Wendy followed me. “Are you alright?” I asked her, and she turned to me for a moment, and then she nodded her head. “Yes, I'm fine.” She replied while putting on her seatbelt. At that ti
“You, don't you know who I am? Don't you remember this face of us?” I said to him, at the same time he looked me carefully in the face while he alternately looked at me and Wendy. Until his eyes widened in shock, at the same time he backed away with a look of surprise on his face. He must have remembered who we two were because he was the only one who shot us that day, so he can't immediately forget the sin he committed and because of that someone lost her life, Wendy. “You're the ones who died that day. But how come you're still alive until now? What's going on? Is this really what I'm seeing, or am I just dreaming?” he stammered with a trace of curiosity on his face. “What do you mean?” his colleagues are curious about him. “They were the people who fell off the bridge then. But how come they are still alive today and can still walk normally?” he said at the same time I winced, so they turned to look at me again with a trace of shock in their eyes. “So, you remember who we are?”
Our whole surroundings became quiet and the bodies of headless zombies were scattered everywhere. Whenever I looked at, there were corpses strewn about and bathed in their own blood. We returned to our car and then Simon opened the trunk where the three pranksters appeared to us where we caught them removing the ties from their hands. “Looks like we're going to need a bigger vehicle.” Simon said as we looked around our entire surroundings where not far away we saw a cargo truck which we immediately approached. “Who will drive this truck?” Luigi asked as I turned to him and grinned. “Who else?” I replied, and then I turned my gaze to where Simon was. We decided that we would use two vehicles, with Simon and Luigi in charge of the cargo truck while Wendy and I rode in the black van. We entered and locked the three pranksters inside the cargo truck with their hands still tied, and their mouths covered with scotch tape. “What are you planning to do with them? Aren't we going to feed t
