The tandem they aimed was to sacrifice their selves to be the focal point of the enemy Primer, it warrants an unknown fate for both, which Trust and Betts calculated can happen that's why they made sure to stay behind in the hopes of helping them escape. Pushing their other comrade forward, Dr. Munar including the other three were pushed by the front defender as he led them past the sewer gate, letting everyone else pass through.
Another moment would have given Trust and Betts, both last to reach the sewer, but a Primer latched itself onto Betts's scent and tried pouncing on her. The creature did not reach her before Trust's tail tore its body in half with the force of a speeding-ton truck. The body in two splattered on the entranceway of the sewer, blocking it in partial, then continues to be blocked when Trust sliced another enemy in half as an onslaught of Primers groggily aimed for Betts.
The last Team A2-front defender found himself blocked off from the remaining

Though Prof. Tenorio stood behind the screen of the surveillance of both the southern area and the camp, he could not maintain his full focus when he anticipated the arrival of the rescue team and his fellow Good Will members.The last recon message was that teams have been divided to lead each group to a safe pickup point. Two of the five teams have reported safely exiting through their chosen paths, securely delivered here in the camp. Cristian and Akyl are back and resting with the others who were civilians they found as willing escapees of the city.Though not an ideal place for them to stay, Prof. Tenorio later pushed the two to rest in the second camp where the other survivo

Perri’s warning didn’t stay long though as the Primer pushed through Horaz, puncturing his side, and reaching for Perri and Bernice. The creature pulled the two girls from the jeep after jumping off, it seemed like its goal was met as it growled. Sniffing at what it held, the two girls hugged each other, cushioning the pain of being compressed by a thick hoof. Both could feel the creature squeeze them without consideration or hold them tighter in warning, try any other thing but escape.The growl turned into a mightier roar mixed with purring coming from its chest. Perri is aware of the sudden change in its demeanor as it showed signs of interest to her most. Holding Bernice for dear life, she whispered to her in a shivering voice. “I’m—I’m sorry...you sho—shouldn’t have been—”Bopping their foreheads together in a light manner caught Perri by surprise that she stopped talking. She looked at Bernice whose chee

Skies have never been silent to anybody’s ears. To them, they could hear the wind or ground move. Footsteps echo as they approached the Primer’s limp body. Nearby, from one of the jeeps, Trust stood to the side and felt the sudden coldness that enveloped Horaz. During the short time, he’s been near the boy, he’s come to form a connection. Not enough to call a bond, but something akin to camaraderie in a budding sense.There was a lump in his throat as the simmering rage Horaz began with simmered down and transferred strongly to the person he considered his partner, Perri. He couldn’t see where she was, but he knew she was in immense physical pain or worse, considering that she was in the grasp of the Primer enemy.He was using his abilities to protect them from attracting Primers coming from the hoard towards the direction of the civilians with him. If the enemy Primer felt it or not, he had little time to assess since his priority was to

Pushing each a team of soldiers, he orders them to infiltrate the center who was the two girls in the middle of the fray. Easily discerned from their point of view because Perri and Bernice were the only two who are unharmed, including the body of the in-coma Primer.Dr. Munar steadily felt his soul shudder as he stopped Prof. Tenorio. “This isn’t right...I’ve never seen this happen? The affected survivors are awake, intent on killing us.”“Surprising,” Prof. Tenorio drily said. “The girls are in the middle of this chaos without harm. There’s no point trying to figure out where the source of the Primer control is, it’s that girl.”Dr. Munar watched from their distance, the blurred forms of the girls under the sunny sky. He couldn’t discern what Prof. Tenorio saw, but he knew it was not something any of them can confirm without further investigation. Reaching an impasse is not an allowable matter a

“I’m not certain but I sense her mind has entered a state of depression.” Said Betts, the concern vivid in her voice. “There’s no certainty, of course, but I’m not so sure this group of soldiers are reliable or people I want to believe in.”Trust knew what she meant, he didn’t mind it at first, to be the creature. Becoming another being at will was something out of fiction, and the burden included as a secret to the people around them was easy to conceal.Perhaps, there was no unluck in their life within the walls of the city, yet there is no freedom and resources in this place for him and Betts to live. He would rather risk living in the human world, away from a doubtful place ruined by an existence profoundly mysterious for many.At first, he contemplated letting the world know of what he has become, although only in his internal mind. Knowing that there will be allies beyond his partner was better than nothing,

Chapter 22A moment of silence filled Betts as she squatted a meter away from the slumped body of the affected citizen, a body with no sign of injury but shows distress to a degree one can only feel upon observation the further they look at the body. Eyes bloodshot and dry to a degree so fearful that you can only look at them in horror. Their mouths were dirtied by the saliva they foamed out and dust getting caught on the edges like a spoiled cup of milk.Feeling their level of desperate yearning for the connection they wanted after supposedly being affected by the incident, they continue to subjugate themselves in completely depreciating thoughts of despair that Betts felt is the reason why some of them fall into a coma. The heavy toll it takes on their will to resist that it becomes a crutch to the point of madness. Add to this is the horrific modification on one’s body during the process that it’s enough to scare their every b

Witnessing people making love was not the first awkward moment Bernice has taken in through her adolescence and teen years. There was more of that due to her sibling’s activities with whoever current partner they have. She’s used to it to the point she can easily dismiss them. It’s different though if it’s two people she knew, one for only a moment and the other since years ago, in a mindset driven by the death of both her friends.This wasn’t the time to see much but it didn’t disgust nor fascinate her, just the utter awkward feeling of being there. Though, soon, it subsides when she looked at her hands that quickly quivered without incite. She heard the soldier who was assigned to care for her and went back to his side.“Hey, avoid going anywhere. We don’t know if those monsters would rise again like the god-awful zombies.” He said as he escorted her to one of the jeeps. “You’ve gone through enough, so it’s okay to rest with the others.”Following him without question felt like she

At some point, he fell from the bosom of the silhouette. His arms flailed as his body was pulled down by the gravity of what constituted the ground. Meeting between two solids should've been painful at the height he fell from but all he was met was the never-ending fall.The moment his eyes opened, not showing his body jolting, he was welcomed by the still sleeping faces of his comrade. At least Dr. Munar was asleep and the rest of the escorts are wide awake and alert. A seat up front was Cristian and another escort, Akyl sat beside him while they stayed quiet for the whole ride back to C-city.The remaining time before they entered at least the outer vicinity will be at approximately thirty minutes.
