"Suzie, no!" Lady Sabrina shouted, her voice filled with alarm as she witnessed the spikes erupting from the ground. But it was too late to stop Suzie's unleashed power.Silver's eyes widened in surprise as he swiftly assessed the situation. With remarkable agility, he leaped high into the air, avoiding the spikes that shot toward him.The spikes punctured the ground, causing debris to scatter in all directions. The force of Suzie's power was evident as the ground trembled beneath them.Lady Sabrina rushed towards Suzie, her concern for her well-being evident. "Suzie, what have you done? You need to control your powers!"Suzie stood there, her eyes wide with shock and fear. She hadn't expected such a powerful and uncontrolled display of her abilities. She tried to regain her composure, her hands trembling at her sides.Silver landed gracefully back on the ground, his eyes fixed on Suzie. He approached her cautiously, his tone laced with a mix of concern and determination. "Suzie, li
Standing at the very top of a building was a man who was clothed in rags, with hair and beard looking unkempt. As the wind blew against him dusty particles blew along with it.He stood high up, gazing down at the street down. Body parts, corpses, debris from buildings, and mindless zombies were all littered around.His eyes dimmed as he watched the zombies move around aimlessly, making various noises.His eyes caught a friend of his that was turned into a zombie and immediately, tears rolled down his cheek."How did it all come down to this?""How did I, Ash Heartfield, manage to become the sole survivor of humanity? The last man standing, in this accursed world," he wailed."My parents, my little brother, even my friends... I had to watch all of them die one after the other,""Even those foster parents of mine that later turned out to be the murderers of my parents, they died too,""Although they deserved their deaths for the way they treated me, I had to watch them all die in front
"Hey, kid!!" The inaudible voice of a man resounded at the back of Ash's mind as he fell to his knees gazing into the burning vehicles in front of him.The sound of fire burning both plastic and iron-like materials was heard from the cars that looked like one collided with the other.Civilians quickly gathered around, in the streets of Wisdom lane as they stared at the tragic accident.Some watched it happen while others didn't, and so the ambulance was called.The blazing flames that engulfed the cars seemed to be growing bigger with each minute and Ash was down on his knees close to it, not minding the heat that emanated from it.He had his full attention on one of the cars as he continued gazing."Kid!!!" The man who was a few meters away from him ran in his direction and was screaming at him to back away from the cars.However, his voice didn't seem to reach Ash."R- run," Those words jolted him back to reality as the hissing sound of air was heard from the car's engine and soon
Ash walked out of the warehouse with his cell phone in his hand.He had taken a couple of steps before he dialed a number on it.The phone rang several times but there was no answer, Ash tried it again but still nothing. He got furious and nearly smashed his phone on the ground but gained composure quickly."I told him to keep me informed at all times, but now he's not answering his phone. I can't be wasting my time here if he's not answering."Arggh, I hate incompetence," he grunted out with an annoyed look on his face.Ash closed his eyes slowly as he gave off a long sigh into the air.‘I should find a way to contact my younger brother. Keeping him close before and after the apocalypse, would be helpful.’‘But my foster parents said I had nothing to do with him.’ he gazed off into the sky while still thinking.‘I don't know why they are preventing me from meeting him. Could they be up to something?’Just as he was lost in thought, several trucks arrived at the warehouse. "Greetings
"Hey!!" "Stop right there!!" Several men chased after a young girl through the alley and soon entered the open street."Huh?" Hearing the sounds of footsteps and heavy breathing, Ash turned around to know what was happening when a girl ran past and pushed him off the road."Hey, what the hell?" Ash shouted out to her."Sorry," she replied as she continued running.Ash looked back at the small figure running away from the harm he couldn't quite see. For a second the way she ran looked familiar and her voice too. As he turned to follow her, some men pushed past him, running after the girl, which infuriated him.The girl ran, dodged, and jumped over several people and obstacles alike as she tried to escape the men.After creating a distance between them, she rushed into an alley to hide from them and catch her breath.After several minutes, she thought she had escaped them and decided to check. The minute she looked out of the street, one of the men grabbed her by the neck and lifted
“When facing an opponent up front, you have to be on high alert,”“They could be weak or strong, but you don't want to take that chance,” a slim but well-built man wearing a faded lemon top with ash trousers stood in front of Ash.He looked like he was giving him a combat lesson, seeing as they both stood in a boxing ring.“Oh, so um... Ramsey?” Feeling lost, Ash tried to ask a question but was cut short.“You have to immediately assume your best defensive stance,” the man continued.“You never know what might happen next, so you have to be prepared,”Ash immediately thought of a scene from his past as he saw Gram standing before him.He brought both of his fists towards his chin as slightly moved back.Immediately, Gram thrust his knife toward Ash, aiming for his chest.“When a person comes at you with, let's say a punch, or maybe even a knife or sword, you must be sharp enough to see it coming and immediately evade it,”“When I say evade, I don't mean fully dodge the attack, it's im
"I will at least kill one of you before going down!!" The man yelled out as he got closer to them.His grip on the knife tightened as he thrust it through the air, aiming at the girl.'No matter how fast he is, he can not counter me. So the least, he will try to jump in front of the knife in other to protect her,' the man thought within.Just as he predicted, Ash got in front of the knife while trying to protect the girl but..."Ahhh," the man grunted hard as he got slammed to the ground by several police officers."What the" the man questioned."Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot to tell you that I already called the cops before getting to this alley," Ash explained."It's not right for several men to chase after a young girl, so I called the cops as I trailed you guys here," "Thank you, we will handle it from here," one of the officers bowed as he gave the order to round up the criminals.Soon, Ash and the girl walked out of the alley unscratched.****Three weeks had passed since the inciden
'Is this real? Is the person I'm seeing before my eyes, really?'Ash kept questioning his thoughts as he sat in the next seat close to his younger brother at the dinner table.The young boy laughed, smiled, and spoke softly in front of John and Mary Greyhart. Unlike Ash, his hair was short and well-combed to his side. He was a bit lanky as well but in terms of facial beauty, Ash won the competition.Both his iris and pupil were both black but a bit different in terms of darkness.They all sat together at the dinner table as they had their dinner. 'Why did they bring him over to this place? We are not supposed to meet until later after the apocalypse.'"Umm..." Ash interrupted their discussion."What made you change your mind?" He asked."Well, we figured since you won't talk to us, or you're probably angry we refused you to see your brother, that it would be nice to surprise you with a visit from him," John answered after sipping off his glass of wine."Shouldn't you be happy he's h
