“Well, I have been with them for three years and I just recovered my memory. I need to thank them for all they have done for me and also my dear wife Eleanor.” Keith smiled at the man, he had the appearance of a normal man.
“I think you should take all the gifts, I know they would be thrilled to know who you are. I will be waiting for your call sir,” The man got into a black jeep and zoomed off.
Keith turned and headed back home, he walked into a mansion that was heavily decorated, it was like a castle built for the kings. Keith went into the mansion, he walked in seeing his mother-in-law seated in the main living room, a woman that looked like she was bathed in luxury. Her demeanor alone was enough to show she was no ordinary class woman.
Keith smiled because he was about to deliver a heartfelt message to her, “Hello Mother, how are you doing?” Keith smiled as he sat close to her but he noticed that she frowned her face, it was like she was not happy to see him.
There was no reply from her, Keith just thought that she might have one of her migraines. “I wanted to thank you for all you have done for me in the past three years, I wanted to give you this.”
Keith handed a small parcel to Sandra, she looked at the package with horror in her eyes. “What sort of joke is this? What kind of gift will a low life like you afford?”
Keith was used to her harsh insults but he wanted to make sure that he was going to give her a gift telling her thank you for all she had done for him.
“It's a small gift, I want to show that I am grateful for all you and your family have done for me. This past three years you all made sure that I was okay and healthy, I am very grateful.”
Keith handed the parcel to Samdra, she looked at the poorly wrapped package without even thinking of it twice she flung it across the room.
“What sort of insult is this? Are you trying to mock me in any way? What do you think you are and why would you think I would take such a pathetic gift from you?”
Sandra looked at Keith with pure disgust in her eyes, he looked at his mother-in-law trying to find out what he had done to deserve her hostility.
“Mother, what did I do to deserve all this? I only brought a gift to you to show how much I appreciate all you have done for me,”
“Get this into your thick skull, I was not the one that saved you. It was my late husband, I told him time without number to get rid of you like the filth you are but he didn't. Instead, he chose to help you out and you turned out to have won his heart and made him give you our beloved daughter as a wife.”
Sandra was looking at Keith like he was a plague, Keith didn't say anything he stood there looking at her.
The late Marcus Kendricks had saved Keith when Marcus found him. He had made sure that Keith was taken care of and his wounds treated.
Not only was Marcus fond of Keith, he wanted him to be part of his family so he made sure that his daughter Eleanor married him before he died. But it has been a year since he died and the Kendrick family want nothing to do with Keith.
“Mother, you should know that I love Eleanor and I want the best for her at any time of the day. I know that things have been rough for me but I am going to make sure.”
“If you truly love my daughter you will let her go,” Sandra didn't let Keith finish his words, she was looking at him with anger boiling in her.
“I don't understand what you mean mother?” Keith was puzzled when he heard what Sandra had to say, he was looking at her.
“I mean you set my daughter free of your dreaded presence, you are a stain to our reputation and she is only with you to make sure that she keeps her late father’s wish. You are nothing but a burden to her life and a weight to us all,” Sandra was not looking like she was not going to stop insulting Keith at any moment.
Keith looked at her, he knew she always resented him but he never thought that it would be up to this level, “I don't know where you are going with this mother, how am I spoiling the family name? I have always been the one to make sure that I was taking care of Eleanor all these years.”
“Yet you don't see your greatest flaw? You are a nobody, a parasite that is not meant to be with people of our class. You should be at some kind of run-down help home.” Sandra did not hold any insult back, Keith had been jobless for the past two months because of a ghastly car accident that almost claimed his life.
“I told you all that I will get yet another job to make sure that I keep making Eleanor smile. My wife and I are happy in our relationship.” Keith was trying to defend his marriage, he was not going to let Sandra do anything to split him up with Eleanor.
Sandra got up from the couch and looked Keith straight in the eye, “I know you must be stupid, but I want to tell you that there is no need for you to look for any underpaying job. You will be getting divorced from Eleanor tomorrow, she has already signed the papers and it only needs your signature.”
Sandra threw a paper to Keith, he picked up the paper and looked at it. It was divorce paper with Eleanor’s signature on it, Keith stood there in confusion looking at the paper. “What is the meaning of this? I know this has to be some kind of sick joke. Where is El?”
Keith looked at Sandra trying to get her to tell her where his wife was. “If you are looking for my daughter she is inside her room with an important guest, please do not disrupt their peace sign the papers here and make sure that there is no other misunderstanding.”
Keith hearing that his wife was in the room didn't even care if there was someone there with her, he was going to find out. “Keith! You come back here and sign those papers! There is no place in this house for you!”
Keith was not listening to any of Sandra’s words, the only thing on his mind was the divorce papers in his hands and how he was going to make sure that he got to the bottom of whatever it was that was happening. Keith went to the bedroom door, seeing it slightly open, and began talking trying to find out what was going on.
“Eleanor? I saw the divorce papers and I see a signature on the papers, please tell me that I am not seeing correctly.” Keith barged into the room, he stood petrified. The sight before him was a horrifying one, his wife sat on their bed kissing another man.
“Eleanor?”

Keith stood by the doorway, looking at his wife in anger. She was on their matrimonial bed kissing another man. It was like something snapped in him.“You fucking bastard! Get off her!” Keith rushed for the man, pulled him off Eleanor, and went on to give the beating of a lifetime, Keith was not even going to check to see who the man was. “Keith? Let him go! I said let him go!” Eleanor was pulling his hand trying to get to release the man before he hurt him again. “Why in the world would I do that? Why is he here? Doesn't he know you are married? I am your husband!”Keith was still holding the man by his collar. He was not going to let go anytime soon. “What good is a husband if all he does is occupy space? You are not even working so how in the world would have taken care of me if I was poor and miserable like you?” This was the first time Eleanor had used such words on Keith. He slowly let go of the man from his grip. “What are you trying to say El? You know my situation and t

Keith left the Kendricks family mansion without even looking back, he waited in front of the mansion so the car Marx sends for him spots him early. “I cant believe that they are this late, I would have to question Marx when I see him,” Keith was getting tired waiting for his car to arrive. He looked around to see if he would spit any cars coming to pick him up. “Well look who it is, I know he needed help from the way he left the house.” Keith heard a voice from behind him, he turned to see who it was and he saw it was Jared and Eleanor coming out of the mansion holding hands. “You would have asked for spare change, instead of standing here to beg for money what a disgrace.” Eleanor spat on the ground next to Keith, Keith didn't even pay attention to them. He stood there still waiting for them to go wherever they were going, but it was like they were going to enjoy trying to torment him. “I think I have a spare hundred in my pocket, I will give you tha so you will take your sorry

Keith looked at the guards and waved his hand signaling them to stop bowing to him, he was doing this while trying to ignore the fact that Jared had a pistol ready to fire him. “You better have an explanation for why you are late, I have been waiting here and you were busy having a joy ride.” Keith had a stern look on his face, he was not looking like a wimp anymore but he was looking like some kind of angry man that needed help with something. “We are so sorry sir, we didn't get the address that Mr. Marx gave us. We apologize from our hearts, sir.” One of the guards said, trying to bow his head, Jared was looking at everything unfolding in front of him and it was like none of it was real. Eleanor was still trying to put one and one together knowing there was no way on earth Keith would have the money to afford all this. “What in the world is going on? Keith is a nobody and he will never be able to have all this.” Eleanor was trying to understand what was going on, she saw that Kei

Keith didn't move a muscle, he stood there looking at the men. It was a stare-off, the men found Keith amusing. “Say shrimp, where are you from? Are you aware that we run this part of town? And we are just doing our job so why don't you just run along now before you get hurt.” The men broke out in laughter, they were mocking Keith’s appearance. They were mocking the way he popped out of nowhere to tell them to stop what they were doing like he was some kind of king.“I will leave, but I am leaving with this young lady.” Keith was serious when he said that, this made everyone present pause for a bit and look at him. “Please sir don't risk your life for me, they will not hesitate to kill you so please go.” The lady pleaded with Keith, but it was as if he was not going to be listening to her. “Don't worry, I will make sure that they don't lay a finger on you,” Keith smirked as he kept his eyes on the men watching them like a hawk. The men felt insulted, they didn't expect someone lik

Keith walked back to the Hotel Lobby, he was trying to act like nothing was going on when he knew everything was going wrong but he chose to act that way since he had taken care of the threat. ‘I honestly thought they would put up a fight, but they were all flukes and they called themselves guards. Pathetic,’ Keith was a bit disappointed, he had expected to fight people with extraordinary strength. But he didn't get anything like that, he only got to beat around some rather weak men. Keith got to the Hotel Lobby, he didn't catch any sign of his guards he decided to wait for them. “They probably went to look for me, I will just wait here.”Keith made himself comfortable by sitting down and waiting for his guards to come back. It was like everyone was muttering the moment he took a seat in the lobby.‘I know I am not dressing properly but must they make it look like a big deal?’ Keith tried to shrug off the fact the people there were looking at him like he had committed some kind of c

Keith was looking at the man Jared had brought to him, he observed every single detail about the man trying to know who he was and why it was him that Jared decided to call. “Sir, I told you to leave the premises before I decide to call security to remove you from the hotel.” The man was looking at Keith who didn't even want to care about what the man in front of him was saying. “Don't you hear him? He is the new general manager of this hotel and the one that will decide who will stay here or not.” Jared was looking at Keith waiting for him to do something like beg him or the man for forgiveness. But Keith was unfazed, he simply looked at the man like any other person and didn't say a thing. He just made himself a bit more comfortable than before. “I am not going anywhere and if any of you have a problem with that then I will suggest you take it elsewhere.” Keith was trying his best not to be bothered by anyone, it was as if he was even trying to avoid anything that would make him

“Mr. Jacquline, what are you doing here? I was not expecting to see you here.” The manager sounded like he was scared when he saw the man standing by the door.The man standing by the door was the owner of the Phoenix Spring Hotel and the city’s third richest man. He was not the best of people to hang around but it was known that he hardly came by his Hotel.“I know you might think that there is a problem here but I will assure you that everything is being taken care of and you will no need to worry about anything.” The manager was looking at Mr. Jacquline as he was looking at the way the guards were holding Keith like he was some kind of criminal.“Mr. Jacquline, your manager is one of a kind. There is no other person on this planet earth that would be able to handle such a problem without messing up and it would have the end of this establishment.”Jared butted in, he was trying to make the manager sound like a good guy to the hotel owner, he was only doing it to make sure that he w

“What in the world are you doing? Who do you think you are?!” Jared was filled with rage, he was not even trying to understand what was going on. The only thing on his mind was how he was going to make sure that he made Keith pay for trying to embarrassing him. “You think there is something you can do? You don't even know who I am! I will make sure that you will die of hunger when I am done with you.” Jared began walking to Keith, he was going to make sure that he got his message to him. Keith looked back at Jared, he didn't know what he was planning to do but he was not about to stand there and watch them do something. “You know that there is no way for you to get anything out of whatever it is you are doing but I will tell you one thing. You have overstayed your welcome here and you don't want to make me angry.” Keith was not smiling anymore, he was looking at Jared trying to make sure he made go up to his hotel room and not take it too far. “What do you think you are?

I woke up to the sound of someone calling my name gently, I sprung up and took my axe ready to kill any zombie in the area. I didn’t know what was going on but I looked up to see Susan standing close to me. I was shocked to see her looking at me like that.“Is there anything wrong?” I asked her as I got up to my feet, I was trying to make sure that she was okay and nothing happened to make her look like she had seen a horror movie character.“No, I wanted to talk to you I could lie down anymore.” She said as she sat beside me, it was like she was trying to get a friend out of it all. I didn’t want it to look like I was not trying to talk to her.“Okay,” I shifted a bit for her to sit down and tell what it was that was bothering her. I didn’t know what it would be that was making her feel uneasy.She sat down and by the looks of things she was quiet, it seemed like something had happened to make her even think of coming close to me.

It took me an hour to kill the zombies that covered the fourth floor, it was like they were weaker than the other zombies I had faced but it was not that. I had gotten stronger and I knew I was only going to get stronger than this if I was to keep moving.‘If I can go faster now, why don’t I go check out the office and know if I will find anyone still alive there.’ I was thinking of trying to go see if there were any survivors up on the seventh floor, knowing that I could move at speeds faster than what I would normally move at. It was going to be ideal for me to go check if I would see anyone there.I turned to the stairs and ran up, every corner leading upstairs was filled with zombies and there was no telling if there was going to be anyone still alive after all that had happened there.I got to the seventh floor and it was a mess, all the desks were turned upside down. I didn’t know what it was that would even make me think that there would be a survivor.“There is no one here, th

The men were not even that much of a threat for Keith and Marx to handle, they took them down like they were not even part of what they would be doing that day. "This is nothing compared to what we faced back in the days!" Marx kicked the man back, he was not going to be wasting time facing those men that looked like they didn't even want to be doing anything. Keith wasn't going to stand down for anything, he was looking at them like they had nothing to give him. "Do you notice something about them? They are not fighting like warriors." Keith had noticed there was something odd about the way the men in front of him were fighting. "They are not even warriors! They lack precision and discipline!" Keith knocked two of them out, he turned to look at the one Marx was facing. He didn't want to back down and it looked like something was pushing him to fight that much. "I don't know who paid these men, but he did a very bad job." Keith walked over to the man, he was not going to waste time

All this time Keith had flawed all his plans and he was not going to take it anymore.

"That man came to this city and took everything from me, I am not going to stand here and let him walk around like he is soem kind of god." Lionel was bitter to the end and he was trying to hide it, he was going to show why he was not going to stand for anything happening.

Keith and Marx were almost at the Phoenix Spring Hotel, they were not going to waste time there but it was also not going to be a glance at what at what seem to be the problem. Keith was not ready to pull any games with Kylian and his men, he knew something was going to happen when they got to the hotel. “I don't know what he is going to plan on pulling but it would be better if we look for a way to make sure that none of his plans connects,” Keith suggested he was not going to be taking the risk of letting Kylian have the upper hand or even think of letting him walk away with what he had done. “Affirmative my lord we are…” Before Marx could finish talking a car came out of nowhere to push them off the street, it was rather strange. Marx lost control of the steering for a while, it was hard for him to even think of balancing it, it was like the person who had done that had no plans to let them walk out of it alive. “What in the world was that?!” Marx yelled, he looked in the mirr

But then it was not going to be working no matter what he would say to Dawson. There was going to be no response from him at the moment. Dawson looked at Darwin and saw that he had still not responded. It was going to be harder than that to make him look like he was going to say anything.

Kylian was close to the Phoenix Spring hotel, he had a plan in mind to make sure that there was no way he would be leaving things in Ian's hands. “That fool might have ruined things for us and I know that there is no way he would be thinking straight so I know that he would be planning something dumb.” Kylian was looking at Sophia, she was the only one he had taken with him. “But sir isn't it too early to conclude that he has failed? I know that you think he is some kind of showoff but..” “You know that I feel certain things and I know when someone has done something a bit off the charts here so I know what I am saying here.” Kylian didn't even let Sophia finish what she had in mind, he knew that there was no way for Ian to be the one who would be successful with the mission. “Now Sophia, I want you to let the warriors on standby know that we will be trying to enter the hotel anytime soon.
