By this point, Christopher had already accepted his fate and began walking back to the orphanage. He was cold, hungry and bruised from the way he was thrown out of the car.Tears rolled down his cheeks as he saw the big wooden doors of the orphanage. At his little age he was still able to feel the pain of being rejected by your own parents. The thoughts that were running through his mind were not thoughts any six year old should be thinking about. “What do I do? How do I eat? What happens if the people in the orphanage do not like me?” Those thoughts ran through Christopher’s mind at the speed of light and tears welled up in his eyes as he stood faced with the door in front of him.Just a few minutes ago he was in his parents car and now he was an orphan. Or not orphan since his parents were still alive, he had been abandoned. He sobbed quietly as he used his little hands to knock on the door. Seconds felt like minutes as his little heart thumped inside his chest, and finally the d
As Phillip ran through the grounds leading to the settlement, he took a moment to look around and assess all the damage that had been done.Except for the original casualties that had been inflicted during the first surprise attacks, there were only injuries and a bit of damage.Phillip shook his head as he saw one of the troops crying while holding the dead. ‘If only they had listened to me’ he thought as he made his way into the settlement.A quick one and two turns here and there and Phillip had found himself in front of Franks laboratory. He stopped suddenly in front of the guards and began to release steam from his body which put them on high alert.However, when it cleared, they saluted and opened the door for him to walk through with the corpse of the infected on his shoulder.Once again he took a few turns here and there and found himself on the elevator leading to Frank's floor. When he stepped out he immediately walked forward and opened the door to the laboratory.The famil
Philip sat on a piece of broken concrete, his expression unreadable.Andrew wanted to approach him, but the moment he tried to get close, a sense of oppression descended on him making him know that getting close to Philip at the moment was not a good idea.‘I hesitated.’ He thought with his hands clamped together.‘Again, I hesitated. I could have easily killed Kaiser and none of this would have happened. But I hesitated.’ His agitation rose and he put his hand through his hair.“Goddamnit!” He shouted and smacked the floor next to him causing it to crack.‘God knows what they are doing to her right now.’ He covered his face with his hands.At this moment, Andrew finally managed to steel himself and approach Philip.“Philip, I know how you’re feeling right now, but we can’t waste any more time. We need to go and get her.” Andrew said in a soft voice.“… I know.” Philip said before standing up and taking a breath, his eyes closed.“And this time, when we meet them. I won’t hold back.”

“Wow, that’s insane. So you’re not even from here, yet you just got thrown into this whole mess.” Christopher said in bewilderment.Franklin was handling this way better than he would have ever imagined. This wasn’t even his country, yet here he was. He was roughing it out much better than he who had lived there his entire life.“Well, I came here to get a better life for myself. I can not really say that is what has happened so far, but wherever I find myself I should at least try to do the best I can. If not for anything, to say thank you to the man that saved my life.” Franklin said with a cheerful smile.His ability to see the good in most situations was something that Christopher admired in the short time that they had spent together.“What about you Chris? How did you end up in this part of town when everybody had evacuated. I’ll be honest, I never imagined I would see another human for a while.” He asked as he opened a can of food for himself.“Well it who’d be understandable t
Xander was in a bind, the cabin they had struggled so much to get to was right in front of them but instead of relief, he felt tension. The people there numbered about ten or so, it wouldn’t be wise to confront them head-on.Furthermore, he did not want to approach them either. After what he had experienced with Mark and Adrian, he did not want to give anybody the benefit of the doubt. He could still remember the look on his face when he tried to choke the life out of him. He had gotten wiser in the last twenty-four hours believe it or not.He concluded that the best he could do was simply try to get enough cans of food before the others entered into the cabin. Funnily enough, they seemeddisagreeing. An older man with patches of grey hair seemed to be telling them not to forcefully enter, while a slightly younger man, probably middle-aged was raging for them to break the door down.This however was not a time for him to gawk and stare. It was a time for him to act! “Hailey, stay here
Nine years had just passed by in the blink of an eye and Christopher was now fourteen years old. He had grown up in the orphanage and had adjusted to life well there, better than he could have possibly imagined in all honesty.He never thought that he would find more peace in an orphanage than his parents own home. It took a while for the boys to get used to him but eventually they began to bond and connect with one another.The orphanage has also began to receive more donations from secret donor, the man did not want any attention. He was only doing it from the goodness of his heart.Everything was going well until that fateful day when they all went to the zoo.“Chris i do not think i have ever been this excited to go to the zoo.” One of the other orphanage kids, Solomon said excitedly.Chris just laughed, he loved to see the joy on his siblings faces whenever they were were experiencing something new.“Mother has been planning this for a long time and it kept getting delayed becaus
