Keith walked out of his apartment, he looked around the quiet neighborhood and he could see why Marx had picked out the place for him. It was so peaceful and as if there were no humans in the close range but there were humans everywhere. ‘It is almost like I was placed in another world to live in, I don't even know how humans can be this quiet and it looks like there is nothing that would cause me trouble here.” Keith smiled as he walked down the street, he observed all the houses and the manners in which they were kept. Keith smiled and kept moving, he was going for a stroll for the first time in a while. He was dressed like a normal man and had things he wouldn't carry if his guards were with him. “I bet Marx would flip if he found out I left the house without guards, but he worries too much. It’s not like anything is going to happen and I know that there is nothing that would even make things difficult for me.” Keith reached a stop, he was looking forward to making sure that the
Keith turned to look at the man, he was trying his best to make sure that there was something he had heard unclearly. “What in the world did you say?” Keith looked at the man with a calm face, he was not sure that there would be anything that would make him feel uneasy. “I am trying to tell you to take your business elsewhere, you are not meant to be in this shop and there is no place for you here at the Golden Mall.” The man was looking Keith dead in the eye when he said those words, he was looking at Keith like there was nothing that would even make him accept in their store. “I don't know what you are getting at but I will tell you this, control yourself before it costs you something.” Keith was not even trying to pay attention to the man. He went back to look at the clothes on the aisle, he was about to touch something when the man held his hand. “Please sir, we can not let you stain our designer clothes with your filthy hands. I would not like to see anything go out of the wa
Keith was looking at the man, he was not about to let anyone insult him and walk out free. It was going to be what he would do to the man that he was thinking of. “I don't know what you think you are but there is no way your manager would even think that it would be a good idea leaving someone like you here.” The man smiled, he was looking at Keith, and he wanted to make something clear to him. “I know you think that there is a way you would fool me and make everyone here think you can pay for that piece of clothing you are holding when we both know that even in a thousand years you can never think of paying for that or anything you take from this particular store. Even if you were to tell everyone that you would.” Keith didn't say any other word, he was still shocked at how the man was that vulgar towards him like he had seen him before. But there was no telling what it was that motivated the man to say or do any of the things he just did. “You will soon understand that not everyt
The entire shop was waiting for something to happen but it was like Keith was making up stories. He was still there looking at them with a stern face, there was nothing that would make him leave the shop like that.“Hey buddy, I think you need what we call a reality check. There is no way on earth you have anything to your name. you might think that there is something there for you and you need to lie your way through.” Hendricks had a smile on his face, he was loving the moment he was tormenting Keith.Keith didn’t say anything but stand there, his attitude and behavior made the people at the shop feel a bit irritated. He was not even trying to protect his name or anything he was there taking the insults like they were nothing to him.“This guy is a dumb ass fake, how on earth would someone like that have anything other than his clothes and it is like he was not even prepared to meet someone like Hendricks here. I bet he was planning to steal the cloth and leave.”“I feel the same to
Hendricks was looking at his boss, his face looked like he had seen a ghost or something that had put fear into him, but it was not normal for him to sound like he was scared of something.“Sir? I told you that this man came into this shop and took something. He was not even thinking of doing anything like paying for it, he was even making claims that he would make us pay for doing something like this to him.” Hendricks was not even ready to listen to his boss.He turned to Keith, he had a look of disgust in his eyes, and he was not even sure he wanted to look at Keith anymore. “This vile creature, there is no place for him here or anywhere but the gutters where he belongs. I think he should know his place before even thinking of doing anything that would bring him closer to people of high standard.”Hendricks was still looking at Keith, he went closer to Keith and spat on his face. “How disgusting, I don’t know why you live.”“Hendricks you fool! Do you want to ruin me? Have you gone
Keith walked out of the store a bit upset, he had wasted time there. He was going to look for a place where he would be able to grab a bite and make sure that there was nothing that would make him think of something else.‘Blasted shopkeeper, how could he have thought that he was on the same level as me? I reckon he thought he was richer than me in a way.’Keith knew that everyone kept saying things like that because he still wanted to keep a low profile and make sure that he was not going to bring more attention to himself. It was only a matter of time until he made an example out of someone who would make the mistake of crossing paths with him.Lost in thought Keith was getting angry, he didn’t know what he wanted to do” I will not take it lightly, it will be something that they would need to stop doing.”Keith was never the type of man to take insults lightly, he was the person who would always want to make sure that there were no problems with anyone while he kept his peace at all
Keith was looking at the man and the only thing he could think of was a way to help him out of the cab business. “A man like you should not even be worrying about things like that, you have a good heart and I can see that in you. Any lady that left you should go for a check-up.” Keith had gotten into a conversation with the man and before he knew it they seemed to be talking about his life and divorce. “Well, I left her so she could be happy and get what she wants. There is no telling what she had been doing behind my back.” Keith couldn't help but think about the things Eleanor had been doing behind his back. It was still a surprise that she was not worried about the divorce, it was like she was praying for it and she had seen someone who would make sure she was not broke. That was where she made a mistake, if she had waited for some time then it would have been a different story for her and her family but she was not patient enough and she had lost everything that would hold he
Noelle was sitting with Keith as they were having their meal, there was a moment of awkward silence between the two. It was a bit unreal but there was nothing to be said or even be done at the moment. “So what happened that night? I have always wanted to know why those men were trying to take you.” Keith wanted to know what she might have done to make her a target, it was still strange how there were people who would think kidnapping someone in the wide open like there was no one going to say anything to them. Noelle stopped eating, she looked down at the table. “You see, in my family they think that they can tell me what to do and who to marry and I am meant to follow their rules. I know they think it is the only way to keep the family name alive but I do not want to be part of whatever it is they are doing there and I know it can't be the only way out.” Noelle was not sounding happy when she was talking about the man, Kieth noticed her uneasiness and everything she was trying to
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. I didn’t know what I was going to do if it was going
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
I was left alone there and there was no telling when those monsters would walk up to me, I was about to stand there to find out. I knew there was no way for me to survive if I was to go up against them like that.‘Why in the world did Mira leave like that for? I know she is trying to save herself but there is no telling what is going to happen if we are not close together.’I was not about to take the risk of standing there to find out that there was something dangerous lurking around the entire building, I knew if I was to make any mistake it would be my last.I was heading for the second fire escape, I knew if there was a chance for me to escape then it would be the other fire escape and I would have to be careful.I was rushing down and there was no way I would be taken down that easily, it was going to be either that or my death there was going to be nothing to it.I reached the fire escape and I began heading down the stairs, it seemed like that part of the building was under ren
“Mira, run if you like your life, you better run with me.” I was trying to make sure that nothing was going to happen to Mira as we ran through the building and watched our colleagues shaking up and down.“Jiro I can't keep up, please take it easy there is no way I can keep up with you and the way you are running.” Mira couldn’t catch her breath; it was going to be the only way for them to escape the building.“If you don’t run then there will be problems, if those things bite us then there will be problems and I cannot lose you.” I held her hands as we ran through the building.We haven’t seen any of the infected people and we were trying to make sure that there were no other casualties. It happened all of a sudden and we didn’t even expect to see any other person that hadn’t been infected.It all happened this morning when I came in for work, it was strange that we had been working on a project for the past week. It was very tiring and there was no way we would even finish it.Our
Darius put on his clothes and began making his way out of the hospital, he was going to find where he would find a dungeon to raid. He was not going to stand there and watch his sister stay in pain. ‘Finding a dungeon is going to be hard work, I need to make sure that nothing is going to hold me back.’ Darius looked at his hands, he paused when he realized that he didn't even have a simple weapon that he would be able to use to protect himself. He was not going to be able to do anything if he didn't have a weapon to even think of fighting back. ‘I don't even have a mere dagger to fight with what am I going to do?!’ Darius was panicking inside his head, he was not sure what he was going to do and he was looking around to see what he was going to be able to find but there was nothing there. Darius was lost in confusion when the screen came up, it was right in front of him. ‘Notice, head to the dungeon that appeared in the East side of the city where you will face your next task an
It had been two months and Darius had been following the instructions of the system whenever it came up, it not only helped him make his body grow to a different level. It changed his physique and everything about him, he had turned to a different human entirely. He had followed all the instructions and noticed that he had turned into a different warrior, Darius had reached a level of power that he was even thinking of reaching without the system. “Hey, have you seen that guy in the seventh ward?” One of the nurses whispered to another nurse, her face was flushed and bright red. “Yes, I thought he was some scrawny-looking guy but he has been exercising and it seems to be working. He now looks like a drawing in a book I read.” The other nurses shrieked with joy, they were not able to hold themselves back from the joy they felt looking at Darius. They were excited, they didn't know how they were going to be able to control themselves when it came to seeing Darius. Darius was walkin
Darius was filled with fear. He looked around to see that he was in a dungeon filled with Skeleton Warriors who could end him. “What in the world is going on here?!” Darius avoided all the attacks coming his way, but he was not sure how he would be able to block every attack. Darius kept running. He dodged the skeleton warriors' attacks and noticed that they were trying to hit him down. ‘Wait a minute, I don’t know how it was possible to get here. Is it because I ignored the screen?’ Darius looked at the warriors, he dodged another swing from a warrior. Darius looked down to see a skeletal blade by the side, he didn't know what he was going to do but the screen left a message. It told him to make sure he survived. “Here goes nothing!” Darius picked up the blade and tried to block the warrior's blade, he noticed that once his blade hit theirs it shattered it. He was shocked that there was something that he could do with a blade. ‘What in the world is going on?’ Darius was shocke
The dungeon raid was one of the worst in history. Hank had to report it as unsuccessful, and the Department of Raids wrote it down as a fluke. “Why in the world is something like this happening? I thought we had checked that Dungeon and it was recorded as a C-ranked Dungeon. It was not meant to be an uncharted dungeon and from the looks of things the surviving members had a story to tell.” One of the supervisors wanted to know what had happened there but the message he got from Hank. “Yeah, but he went back and he found out that there was one more survivor, but he was unconscious. What's more surprising is that Hank knew that there was no way he would survive, he said he had a hunch about the boy before he went back to check on him.” The other supervisors said as he looked at the report that Hank brought to him. “What is more shocking is the fact that he said that the boy was mutilated in front of him and there was no way he would be able to survive the wounds but oddly it was clea
Everyone was filled with fear the moment they saw what was happening in the dungeon, they were not sure what they were going to see next but it was clear to them that they were not in a C-ranked dungeon and they were in something greater than that. “Stay together, the last thing I want is to lose anyone out of fear or anything like that. So please don't falter and stay close to each other.” Hank was giving orders to make sure that there was no way for him to lose any of his squad members. Darius was filled with fear but he clung close to the team, they had seen the writing on the altar that said prove you are worthy. But then no one understood what they were going to be facing in the dungeon. “How on earth did they mark an Uncharted as a C-ranked dungeon?! We might be in a bloody S-ranked dungeon.” Jean spoke up, he was scared to his witts. Darius could see that everything he had said earlier was different now and he was scared for his life. “I have a daughter and son out there. I
