“Dominic!” Christina screamed out in relief as she ran towards me and jumped into my embrace.“Hey hey don’t worry I’m okay, I promised you that I would return” I said with a smile as I hugged her tightly as if afraid that she would vanish.“Sob sob, I thought you were gone, I was so afraid that you would leave again” Christina sobbed.“It’s okay I’m here now” I replied to calm her down.“Hey Dom I hate to break your reunion but how do we know if Henry’s finally dead?” Rash asked which struck all of us after remembering how many times, Henry managed to come back even after being supposedly killed several times.“Ding”[Congratulations to all surviving contestants on completing the ‘Nightmare Apocalypse’ tutorial: ‘Night Of The Ripper’][Rewards will be issued shortly, meanwhile, all surviving contestants will be transported out when ready]“Arrg my arm” I groaned in pain as my tattoo glowed which sent a stinging sensation throughout my arm, this was similar to the time we cleared the
With the appearance of a blinding bright light, came the arrival of four figures who immediately went on high alert as soon as they arrived.“I think the coast is clear” I said to the others who calmed down after scrutinizing our location, this was the same place where we had entered the dungeon, that same house.“Since we’re already prepared, I think we should leave now, we are still some distance away from home and I would like to get there fast” I explained to the others who all nodded in consent, after receiving their confirmation, I buckled myself then walked to the door with guns ready.I opened the door slowly and then peeked outside where sunlight showcased the ruins of a city, I looked to the left and then to the right and after seeing no danger, I opened the door and gave a thumbs up to the others who were behind me.“Let’s go” As I walked out of the house, the first smell that hit my nose was the smell of rotten flesh.“Urrg the fuck’s that smell?” Tasha asked in disgust as
“Guys let’s go” I spoke to the others as we followed behind the masked man, eager to escape the sniper’s sight, we moved through the smoke and appeared in an enclosed space where the man beckoned us over to crouch behind a structure.“Shhh” The man made a motion to us to keep quiet as he peeked over the structure carefully. I was about to raise my head to peek when the man pulled his hair down.“I can see bodies, shit they’re all dead” A distressed and shocked voice sounded from the smoke.“Let’s go” The man whispered then led us away from the scene, he seemed to know his way around as he meandered through the rubble while cautiously spying left and right, we followed him through the rubble until we arrived at a grass-covered wall.“Wait here” The masked man said to us then walked over the wall and whispered something into the grass.“Is he okay?” Rash whispered to me after seeing the man’s actions.“Click click” The sound of clicking echoed on the wall as before our eyes appeared som
“The butcher” I muttered his name which seemed to carry a lot of power, the way Hank described the one referred to as ‘The Butcher’ with seriousness made me unconsciously develop a sort of wariness toward the character.“His strength is nothing to scoff at with him already being evolved, that alone puts him at an advantage compared to others, there is also the insanely powerful class that he obtained, these two facts combined makes him an opponent to fear” Hank continuously stressed the strength of the enemy that I hadn’t even met.“You keep stressing about his strength but your tone seems to be hiding your grief, what aren’t you saying” Christina asked with a frown which caused both Ray and Hank to glance toward her in shock.“Sigh, is it so obvious, you’re right, it wasn’t always like this though, I knew him before he became like this, that was long before the apocalypse, we once belonged to the same group but something happened one day that made us separate, I usually hate recallin
“Three days ago!” I exclaimed, this meant that Logan had been missing for three days ever since he went into that mysterious hole.“Where is the location of the hole?” I asked which caused Christina to glance toward me.“Why do you want to know?” Ray asked curiously.“I’m going into it tomorrow” I replied with a steadfast expression that meant that I wasn’t going to change my mind.“Are you crazy? Why would you want to walk right into your death?” Christina rebuked with a frown.“I have to, who knows what condition Logan is in at the moment, first thing tomorrow, I’m going in” I replied, my words sounding more firm, I had already made up my mind.“Urrg” Christina groaned in anger as she stormed out.“Christina!” I called out to her as I followed her out.“Christina please listen” I pleaded as I grabbed her hand.“Leave me alone! Just leave me alone like you always do, I just got you back and you already want to leave once again, are you so eager to stay away from me” Christina sobbed
“Arrrrrrrrg” Rash screamed out in fear as we fell down the hole that seemed bottomless.“Hey, Rash wake up” Rash suddenly opened his eyes to see the rest standing before him.“How did we get here? Weren’t we falling?” Rash asked in confusion and shock.“Yeah we were a second ago but we seemed to have mysteriously appeared here, I think it has something to do with this hole” I replied while relating our experiences.“I don’t like this place, it gives me the chills” Tasha muttered with a shiver as she stared into the darkness.“What do we do now?” Ray asked curiously while looking around the cave they had appeared in.“The best option would be to carefully explore the cave and keep an eye out for Logan” I explained then turned on the flashlight I was holding.“Here for protection” Rash said as he handed me a handgun, all my items had been commandeered by Rex’s people.“Thanks, stay behind me everyone, if you see anything unusual prompt our attention” I whispered then took the lead with
“Fuck run!” I shouted as we moved through the cave with red eyes staring at us from all over the cave.“Damn duck” I warned as I ducked the claws of a bat swooshed past my head.“Bang bang” I fired at the bats circling around us but it was no use due to their number, there had to be almost 200 bats in here and they were all large-sized.“Wait wait” I halted my movement as I took out my flashlight and aimed at the bats approaching us.“SCREECH” The bats stopped and screeched after seeing the light which gave us a little chance to think.“We can’t get to the other side in time, we ain’t even halfway yet, if we keep going we’re going to end up as bat meal soon, we have to find somewhere else to go” I explained the situation while furiously searching for a place where we could hide, I knew that the flashlight couldn’t hold them off forever.“Follow me and keep your eyes and ears closed” Ray quickly said as he pulled out a flashbang and threw it onto the ground before rushing in the opposi
“How are you not affected by my spell?” The sea monster asked in a voice that made the water vibrate, hearing this voice made me shiver in fear as I stared face to face with this Behemoth, there was no way that anyone wouldn’t do the same in my situation, I mean the eye of the monster was almost 5 times larger than me, this scared me to the point that I couldn’t even make any action.“Urgg” While gripped with fear, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my lungs before I remembered how long I had been underwater, I had to get to the surface to breathe but how could I do that with a gigantic creature staring at me openly?‘What about the others?’ This thought passed through my mind as I glanced toward them to see them also struggling in the water.“Oh I’m sorry for my rudeness, let me help” The voice of the sea creature boomed once again as under my gaze, a bright light shot out from its eyes and spread across the dark waters, as the light approached me, I panicked and tried to move but I fel
