Carlos continued driving recklessly, hitting any zombie that came his way. He aimed to save his mom and sister. Afterward, learned the mystery behind his imagination which turned into reality.
The zombies continued increasing in numbers. Once bitten by a zombie, a person collapses and further wakes up to another creature. His head twitched profusely not abiding by any mission but to quench his taste for blood.
Sounds especially noise attract zombies, so Carlos's bike made more and more chase after him.
Auguste moved to his supernatural machine and stared at it persistently.
He picked up a fluid contained in a white experimenting bottle.
"Virginia Rodriguez! Let's see if you are alive or not"
He smiled and poured the fluid Inside his detector. A machine small and square in shape. It looked more like a microwave oven, specially meant for experimenting with human brains as well as fluids that he had absorbed for future purposes.
Virginia's whitish fluid was more of his target.
"Your mortality is in my captivity, Virginia! Let's check if you're still alive or dead!"
He said as he switched on the cable only to see the result as "Positive!"
His eyes widened as he shook his hands in anger.
"How is she alive?"
"That woman is supposed to be dead along with her useless son. They will all ruin my plan the moment they realize how crucial they are!"
A voice interrupted his soliloquy
"godfather! The city is really in grave danger"
Diego said as Auguste turned to him in a moody sight.
Realizing his mistake, Diego stepped back.
"Do I need to remind you that this lab is my privacy? Why did you come here, not just that, but with a girl?"
"godfather, I know that I am wrong here but this girl had been a good help to us. Especially in terminating Carlos!"
Auguste seemed interested in what Diego said to him
"How do you mean?"
He inquired as he switched off his detector system and sat on his office table.
"Yes Sir, Carlos is dead. I mean, we pushed him to one of the zombies and I'm sure that he is dead by now "
Rhea added in her slim structure and short heightened hair.
"Hmmm, I see. So he is dead "
Auguste added with a forceful grin
"We have to leave this country as soon as it is possible. Else, I fear that these zombies won't stop their destruction "
Auguste added and prepared to close his lab when he remembered that he still had to take care of Virginia, seems Carlos was dead.
Noticing that his uncle was not ready to leave, Diego turned to him
"godfather, aren't you leaving?"
"I need to take care of something now. Go downstairs, take care of my luggage as well as yours. We need to leave here now"
Auguste added and reactivated his detector system.
"godfather, what about dad? Isn't he coming here? You told me that he is in safe hands"
Auguste stopped what he was doing after hearing this question. Flash images of how a fluid was injected into a man sprang into his head as he jolted back to the present scene.
"Oh! Don't worry about that, Son. Your dad is in safe hands, okay?"
Diego gestured and left along with Rhea.
"I have so many problems on my table. And now, my son is getting suspicious. I have to do everything in my power to kill Virginia and every member of her family. That is the only way to ensure my victory in this battle. I will rule everyone. I will turn Neon City into my city!"
Auguste said as he put on his goggles and made some typing which revealed the current address of Virginia.
"La'bestine, huh?"
He grinned and went to his virus system. He poured Virginia's fluid inside the absorber which will resolve and automatically transform the virus into Virginia's body.
At the successful completion of this attempt, Auguste sat still and smiled
"In ten seconds, Virginia will automatically become a zombie. What a victory!"
Carlos increased the speed of his bike as he raced faster.
He started hearing some sparkling sounds. It distracted his ride as he couldn't concentrate. He started envisioning where a woman was transforming into a zombie out of her will.
He closed his eyes as he drove on the express road.
The vision became clearer; it was his mom
"Mother!"
He yelled and opened his eyes only to find out that his bike was at the edge of the bridge. Almost ready to fall into the river. The area where he is seemed safe.
There were no zombies there. He took a C-turn and continued driving faster.
"Five seconds to go, Virginia!"
Auguste said as he switched on his television. In his lab were tens of televisions.
He switched them on at the same time and watched the headlines.
Carlos finally arrived at his mom's house.
Getting there, everywhere was silent. He hopped down from his bike and every step he took left an everlasting echo in the compound.
"Mom!"
He said softly as he approached the entryway. Just as he was about to open the door, the area where the zombie scratched started glowing.
His instinct told him that something was wrong as he was still lost in the shocking glow on his left hand.
His hand pulled him backward without his consent. He tried forcing himself not to move but couldn't control the effect of the glow.
It continued pulling him backward until he got to a wall.
"Alright, one minute to go, Virginia!"
Auguste said happily as he lifted his sight from the detector system.
The glow still pulled Carlos out from the wall which he was leaning on.
He closed his eyes instantly and envisioned where fluid was about to be injected into his mom.
In his vision, the fluid was approaching straight to his Mom, he held it with his hands and it poured onto the floor. He opened his eyes and immediately, Auguste's detector system started beeping with a blinking inscription "Terminated... Terminated... Terminated!"
Carlos looked up and saw his mom! The fluid that poured out in his vision was on the floor in reality.
"How is this possible?"
"How is this possible?"
Carlos and Auguste muttered surprisingly at the same time
"Are you alright?"Middle-aged Virginia inquired out of fear."Mom, how did this fluid end up here?"Carlos asked and his mom was intrigued by the glow in his hands."What is this, Son?"Virginia inquired but Carlos neglected her question."Well, I came out only to see you in an unstable manner. I tried to help out but this fluid came out from nowhere. At the edge of hitting me, it fell on the floor!""That was exactly what I saw in my visions"Carlos said immediately after his mother"Really? You have started imagining the future?"Virginia questioned with a smile on her face."No Mom, we have to leave here. It is not safe here"As they wanted to leave, the glow on his hands became brighter and even painful."Ugh!"Carlos exhaled"What's the problem?"Virginia said and held his hands but was shocked by the glow."I have a bad feeling about this, Mom!"He added and asked his mom to hide."I think that this glow appeared because something precarious is about to occur! I will have a loo
Where are you going to?"Virginia questioned after grabbing Carlos's hand.Carlos held her tight and closed his eyes. "Don't worry, Mom. I will keep you safe""All we have to do is follow the direction of the glow!"Carlos said and Virginia held him back"How are you so sure that this glow means good and not harm to you? I have a strong feeling about this, let's go to your sister "Virginia said and Carlos hugged her tight"You have to understand what I am feeling now. The torture is too much! I have to abide by what these visions tell me""How are you sure that the visions are correct? How do you know the right place to be at the right time?"Virginia asked in fear of the future"Mom, the glow will lead me. Let's go"Carlos and his mom walked away and straight to an abandoned building close to the petrol station."I think it's here "Carlos said and followed a route inside the tattered house but the glow disappeared."Mom, I think that we are following the wrong route!"He said and
Carlos held his head and closed his eyes. His teeth were chattering as his face squeezed. He appeared to be in great pain as the voice continued"Negative - Left! Negative - Right!"Carlos screamed as he envisioned where a crowd instantly turned to zombies."Negative - Left! Negative - Right!"The voice continued. Carlos's scream increased when a squealing sound mixed with the electronic voice."No!"He screamed and collapsed instantly."Carlos! Carlos!"Virginia screamed and Claire asked her to move aside so she could examine him.She checked his pulse and they were vibrant and active as well."What could have happened to him?"She murmured to herself.Carlos regained consciousness immediately and stared at Claire without a wink. Observing this, Claire moved aside but Carlos continued staring at her initial squatting position."Negative - Left! Negative - Right!'Carlos said and stood up immediately"I have to go Mom ""But wait, what is that in your pocket?"Claire asked pointing at
"Shit!"Carlos said to himself as he saw the zombies walk closer to him.He wanted to drive off but they surrounded his bike. He was at this point in the middle of all the zombies.Without dictating the exact number of zombies around Carlos. There were more than one thousand. It seemed as though they were all waiting for his arrival. Both male and female, children and even pregnant women, were all there as transformed creatures.The further approach of the zombies made Carlos trip. They fell on his body and hustled for who would take a bite of his body first. Knowing fully well that he couldn't survive the attack of all the zombies, Carlos closed his eyes and envisioned the total number of zombies on his body."1642!"Carlos yelled out and forcefully stretched his hands, pushing out multiple zombies on his body. He stared at them as they approached him, fiercest than ever. He delivered his kick on ten zombies at the same time and landed on his bike. One of the zombies, a female docto
Auguste couldn't believe his eyes! He walked and checked every corner of the golden room but didn't see it."All my life, I have stored this crystal for so many years. How can it just go missing? Everything I worked for will be destroyed!"He muttered to himself and moved to his lab after hearing the beeping sound on his soul-counting machine which was more like television but medium-sized.It has a blinking status portraying a yellow inscription "Diminishing!"Auguste switched off the machine and threw his goggles away."How come are they diminishing? Once diminished, I can no longer bring them back to this world. Something must be done about this!"He said and grabbed his phone*********"Do you mean to tell me that you were scratched by these monsters before today?"Virginia questioned and Carlos gestured."But how are you still alive and even healthy?"Claire added and Carlos stood up."I don't know, I am as surprised as you are. But I know one thing for sure, my hand started glow
Virginia ran out of the house to keep herself far from her son and not to cause him further problems.Everything seemed mysterious to Carlos. He remembered clearly that all that the crystal had done for him was help and never to hurt someone.Claire passed him a cup of tea and asked"Tea?"He took it and grinned, "Thank you"He added and Claire sat down."Tell me Claire, why did that happen to Mom? You heard what she said, the crystal was behind this""But we are not aware of what crystal your mother was referring to. Could it be that there is a..."Claire added and Carlos was further confused"A crystal? In my brain? Stop kidding me, Claire ""Anything can be possible, can't you see everything that happened? They are all connected, maybe the crystal is in your brain and has been the reason why all these happened"Claire responded and Carlos inquired immediately after her"Including my mom's transformation?""No one can tell, Carlos!"A knock on the door interrupted their conversation
The discovery they had wasn't enough to answer all of their questions. Carlos sighted the Circa still increasing in size. "Are you sure that the Circa increased because of the green gulf? I mean look at the Circa, it has been increasing in size for a while now. No longer small but a flower vase size!"Claire said and Carlos noticed that the Circa had stopped increasing in size."It stopped increasing in size, that's clear. The green gulf can affect the Circa not just the first time of their encounter, it can be after a few minutes or even days""I am sure that the Circa has something to do with the artificial intelligence in your brain because all these are connected. I think that the answer is left to us to answer. That is why no matter what it takes, we must be able to help you get the crystal out of your brain!"Claire added immediately after Carlos and he grinned."People may call me weak but I won't stop until I make this crystal pay for making me an orphan. First, I will get it
Auguste was disturbed about the missing Crystal. There is a possibility that the crystal might be with Carlos, a big mistake that should never happen. But at the same time, he wants to create a new virus. More fluid can help him terminate a lot of people at the same time."I can't let that boy get all the clues! Carlos is the only person qualified to possess the crystal. The new virus must be created to bring this world to an end!""Well, you don't have to worry anymore, because we are here!"Auguste turned back and saw Beatrice, Chris, and Jacob.Beatrice was young, Chris was a middle-aged man and Jacob was the same age as Chris.With her flexible appearance, Beatrice has a body structure that fits in for her profession- A scientist."Let's get into work, I also want to see this world under our captives!"Beatrice added and Jacob gestured in agreement with her motion."And that is why we secured a second option because we can't rely on the crystal to give us everything that we need!"
Rico and Fred's eyes hit together. Fred gave him that glare which he knew the meaning of. He knew that Fred wasn't at fault. Noticing how Rico stared at Fred, Claire immediately "Really? Are the glances necessary?" Rico sighed before saying "Claire, believe me, this..." "Cut to the chase, Rico! I only want to hear the truth and nothing more" Claire cut off his utterance and he added "At least, give me the chance to explain myself inside the house, not here" Rico said and Claire moved out for his passage. After thinking about how he would make everything clear to Claire, Rico sighed again. "Come on, Rico. We're in this together. We accepted you into our home not only to live with us but to ensure that we live in loyalty..." Claire said and added "Please, Rico, tell us how the orchester crystal got into your nerve" It was a very hard decision to make but Rico had no choice but to spill out the beans. "It is true that I have the crystal in my brain. The crystal has been given
Rico dashed off to Auguste's mansion. Auguste and Beatrice weren't around. Rico had made up his mind to destroy Auguste and bring everything to an end. When he got to Auguste's compound. He teleported himself to his lab. There, he saw all of the systems that he used in producing Zombies. He saw the one that showcased the total number of infected people in the world.He touched the system and said"How evil people can be! I can't believe that Auguste has this evil intention. He should thank his stars that he isn't home, otherwise, he might be in the land of the dead with his accomplices!"He gazed up and visualized everything in the lab. He further walked up to the other labs. There, he saw all manner of machines. He raised a small metallic machine that had the structure of a microscope. He gazed at it thoroughly before wondering to himself"For real? How did they invent all these?""This targets the number of people in the world. This is where they store all the information about ind
Rico met with Fred in haste. It seemed as though he took his Promise likely. Auguste and his team really have to pay. "Fred, I want you to link my thoughts to reality!""But why now, Rico? You know very well that it's very hard to do that at the moment. If I may ask, why do you want to link your thoughts to reality?"Fred inquired and Rico grabbed his Amazon suitcase. His face wasn't friendly, looking so strict."Auguste and his team have done enough, it is time to teach them a very big lesson!"Fred nodded and asked him to sit down. His system was previously connected to the Amazon system making it easier for Fred to carry out his mission successfully. He brought a systematical ball which was small in size and magnetic. He placed it on Rico's head to connect his thoughts to reality.The ball connected to his Amazon system successfully. He pressed a red button and Rico's head started vibrating. His head twitched profusely and unstoppably."Focus on your target, Rico. Bring them to r
The circa has changed a lot. The internal part now glows in orange. "What am I seeing? This is no longer a building, are we in another planet?"Fred inquired, shocked. The internal part of the Circa was covered with a magic orb. "Fred, I think the crystal did a great job. The circa is even more developed, bur how do we get in?"Rico inquired because the orb blocked their entrance which covered the internal part of the circa. The magic orb was a small shimmering ball which was similar to a tennis ball but unlike a tennis ball, the orb was transparent and glowed.From the external view, you can't see what us happening inside but from the internsl part of the circa, you can see everything that is happening outside.The magic orb was shimmering in orange as Rico and Fred figures a way to get inside. Rico had a plan which he thinks might be successful. He was developed with powers, so there is a possibility that once he touched the glowing orb, it might open.Rico closed his eyes and too
Rico opened his eyes immediately and it glowed. He was aware of the danger that was about to befall him. This mission will be very hard but Rico has to fulfill his calling. It was the middle of the night. He walked to the vicinity where he systematically changed into Rico. He dashed off to save the night! A woman was still waiting for her drunkard husband to return. She was yawning and lost in sleep but was conscious at the same time.Immediately, the floor started shaking. This jolted her to reality. She stood up to check why the ground Shaked.Immediately, someone grabbed her legs from below. She screamed and attempted to run away but the person also stretched forth his other hand and came out with so much sand coming out from his body.It was a zombie! She looked around and saw a flower vase. She hit the zombie and ran straight to her daughter's room to ensure her safety. There was worse!Zombies surrounded her daughter! She screamed and the zombies diverted their attention to her
Rico wouldn't leave without saving anyone in danger. Nigeria was in grave danger, not Nigerians but their president. Rico couldn't ignore the visions of the aged man being eaten by Zombies. He flashed into the giant of Africa for a rescue. To the province of Mr President, the Zombies were even his guards.Mr. President was having a peaceful sleep. He'd transferred his wife and children to another country because of the outbreak while staying back to protect his country.Rico sneaked inside Mr. President's house and his hand started glowing. His nerves were systematically active. His hand glowed brighter pointing him to where the Zombies were. He speedily moved to Mr. President's room.A zombie was about to attack him when Rico stretched his hand and pulled him away. Another approached him but he used massive air to blow him off to hit the wall. Mr. President was wowed! Rico moved to him"Are you okay Sir?""Of course I am"The president responded while still gazing at Rico. Now, he r
Rico dashed off and in just five minutes, he was already at Jamaica. He doesn't know where he is nor the particular spot where the Man he saw in his vision was. He arrived in a bush and it was night, approximately one-thirty AM. As he walked on the fallen leaves, his footsteps echoed in the environment. His nerves were glowing, leading him to where the man could be. He continued walking in the footsteps and guidance of his nerves.Then he saw a hut, not too far from him. The hut was under the reflection of a light. But what type of light is that? A blue light! Rico had seen those lights before.Those were the same lights on planet Juno. But how possible is it that this light only shone in this hut and not the rest of the bush?Leave no further explanation, it was the hut! Rico slowly walked to the hut with his eyes focused and his face strict, no sign of minority.He opened the hut and his eyes danced sideways as quickly as they could to check if he could do anything positive. But no
At this point, Rico doesn't know what to do next. He is as unable to figure out how to disconnect himself from the zombies. The Zombies groaned as they came closer to him but he stood and observed their motion.Auguste and his team were happy knowing that their plan would work out.Beatrice started copying all of Rico's data. It's possible! Yeah, because through the Zombies, Beatrice's system is also connected to that of Rico. She was still copying all of the data about Rico."If this plan of ours comes out successfully, we will be able to defeat that Rico of a guy"Auguste said and they all grinned.Fred visited his system and realized that it's been beeping for ages.He checked the connection and discovered that Rico's body was connected to that of the Zombies.Rico had many methods to attack the Zombies but once he does so, the zombies will automatically terminate it.He walked closer to the Zombies with the thought"If the Zombies can do whatever I can do, there is a probability t
Rico had gathered with the rest of Carlos's family to visit the Circa. He transferred the green gulfs to the Circa and it increased in size.WOW! The circa is now as big as a house! It also had an opening like a door but the opening was round. All the buttons in the external part of the Circa became visible. The Circa had several buttons that not even Rico could explain their functions.They gazed at themselves in astonishment because of the size and height of the Circa. The circa was even taller than their house."I think we should try It out!"Rico said and they all gazed at each other. It seems like they've all learned Rico's rules. None of them asked a question, they just entered the Circa and were even shocked to the peak after seeing what the internal part of the circa looks like."Are you fuckin' kidding me ?"Chloe exclaimed and Alena uttered"This is...f^ck!"Claire glanced at Rico. She didn't know what to say. She didn't believe that they would all get to that extent. Imagi
