Okay, Avery got him. There was no way he’d tell the man that those people weren't his real parents but just some people who looked like them.Yet, he really did want to see them. He turned to Avery. “What if what we meet there isn't a good one? I might not have the vigor to go to the store anymore if I find my parents are already zombies. Let's go to the store first and there, after.” Danny said.Avery didn't argue with him but instead led the way while Danny trailed behind. His mood had dwindled as he had begun to be crippled in fear of the unknown.The store sure was in bad shape and when they entered it, they found its shelves were empty shelves. Avery and Danny could hear the faint groaning of zombies inside.They were not alone here.“This place sure is creepy," Avery whispered.Danny turned to him, nodding in agreement. “Just like every other goddamn place here. If the weather changes and the bloody rain falls, we are done for. Sounds like there's a lot of them in here.” He said
Danny's breath grew heavy, and cold sweat dripped down his slim face as he stood before the five bullies. It had been the semi-final of the annual talent hunt program at school two days ago, and Danny, the perennial target of everyone's mockery, had surprised everyone by defeating the five most popular dancers with his natural dance talent. Now, these bullies had cornered him, claiming that they needed to "teach him a lesson" because they couldn't accept their defeat.Jon, the leader of the group, sneered at Danny and ordered his two lackeys, "Pour the chemical on his face. Let's see how he shows up to dance tomorrow with a burnt face!"Danny had already been beaten to a pulp, rendering him unable to escape or call for help. He could only kneel there, his hands held up high by two of the boys, while another approached him with a vial filled with a lethal acid.The sound of the approaching footsteps reverberated in Danny's ears, growing louder and more ominous until the boy reached hi
As if his voice was recharging their strength, the two strange-looking people began to approach him faster. Impulse told Danny to run. He wanted to run but then, he asked himself why he should run from the two harmless people who looked like they needed his help.“Are you guys okay?” he asked but to his dismay, the man tripped on the dead body on the floor and fell on it while the girl tripped on the man and fell on the floor.Now, they were both crawling toward him, snarling and outstretching their hands reaching out to him.The man first grabbed Danny’s leg but Danny jerked away in fright. “What's wrong with you?!” he hollered again, already starting to sweat in the hot corridor.Some black worms were crawling out of the dead body and crawling up the body of the two people in front of him –but they seemed not to care about the slimy things as they entered into their ears and even their mouths.“What in the world is this?!” Danny grumbled in disgust, almost puking.He heard a noise fr
Abruptly, the girl had turned to the screen and Danny who was as lost as a puppy could only do the same.The breaking news had different tapes of streets, cities, and countries being displayed. The roads were secluded and it was the afternoon unlike now when it was the night.Cars were dumped around, blood stains and bodies could be seen on some of the streets the screen displayed with the word ‘AFTER’ boldly stamped on the screen.“It is just a day and it's already worst than I thought.” the girl muttered beside Danny.Danny glanced at her and asked the question dancing in his throat. “What is worst than you thought?” he asked with doubt, still finding it hard to stomach the whole zombie thing the girl had mentioned to him.Suddenly, almost immediately he asked that, the serene display on the screen change to the opposite. Danny heard screams and gunshots and when he turned back to the screen, what he saw left his jaw slacking.“That is what's worst than I thought.” the girl breathed
Somehow, the statement made him stand abruptly up. “I am not going anywhere outside. Those things are right out of the door. Why not just wait until help comes?” He argued.He heard the grunt which came from her in reciprocation to his words. “Tell me, Danny, how did you suddenly turn from the intrepid one to this scaredy cat?” To that, he had no answer. Never had he been a fearless guy so whatever she was saying was as alien to his ears as this reality he found himself.“You heard the lady, the zombies can't move in daylight. If we go in the morning, we stand a better chance to keep alive.” she raised and dropped her shoulders, her chest heaving in apparent frustration.He heard the broadcaster but that point did not serve enough to make him any less scared.“But it's dim in the building!” he found the nearest excuse that came to his mind. “What building is this anyway?” he blurted, turning to swivel his neck around as though he was just noticing his surroundings.The widening of t
Sounds of the zombies outside of their door running down to the source of the scream reverberated and finally, Danny could freely breathe. He hated himself for being relieved that danger was out of their door and heading to someone else. Someone who might just be as scared as him, if not more.Picturing the zombies eating out the intestines and brain of the victim caused him to belch in fright. The belching caused his stomach to churn even louder. He sat down, holding his stomach which was now stinging with pains caused by hunger.Surprisingly, he wasn't as thirsty as he was hungry. He wondered why.As though matching the rhythm of a song, the stomach of the girl also made a lazy grumbling sound which was even louder than the sound of his own. He glanced unconsciously at her just to follow the hilarious sound but she had also looked his way. Awkwardly yet again, their eyes collided and Danny shyly looked away in speed.“Let's smash.” he heard her loud voice declare. She did not mean
“This is stupid suicide.” Danny heard the voice of the girl beside him and he gasped in shock. His forehead was already boiling and the sweats dripping from it and every other part of his body was too cold to match the hotness he felt.He hated himself for chickening out like that but the scene in front of him had risen all of his fear hormones— and the adrenaline rush gushing over him spurred his paranoia to life and he was edgy. Fear had gripped him, sadness too.He did not like too much Aunt Theida but he did not wish for her to be eaten by zombies too. Also, Aunt Theida was the last person he thought he would find in this strange new world. If Aunt Theida was here, just how many more of people he knew could also be?Or maybe it was merely sheer coincidence. Not to mention he was only looking from afar so, the woman could just be someone who looked quite similar to his Aunt Theida. And sound similar too.Oh, and had a dog too. One that looked like Aunt Theida’s.He knew his though
“You always like this Danny. Amnesia shouldn't make you like it any less.” the girl who had removed her waist belt and her short pant had dropped from their place and onto her ankle shamelessly said.Why was she after knowing him for just two days speaking of what he always liked? Danny wondered.He stood now, staring at her growler, unable to cast his glance away from it. There were little strands of hair just growing around her vagina and Danny saw that she had a more darker shade of pink for her front butt complexion.He shouldn't be looking so intently at a woman’s ass but his shock and uncertainty had rendered him unable to avert his gaze. Was it truly that or he was finding an excuse for the lust which had now started to engulf his senses?“See, Danny? You want it too.” He heard the girl whisper as though she could read his mind.He gulped the first time, then the second and the third.He was not ready to have sex. His fears wouldn't let him. What if he ended up doing nonsense a
