Leaning against the wall, he let out a heavy sigh, his mind drifting back to the year 2023 when the first demonization reports surfaced."It all started with that viral video," Harold thought, his mind tracing back to the warning signs that went unheeded. Subject Zero, floating around the internet, a harbinger of doom dismissed by many until the world was engulfed in the chaos. The initial case of demonization in South Africa was the spark that set ablaze the entire country.The lack of a coherent response from authorities plunged the nation into an abyss of despair. Lives were lost in the thousands as the first instances of demonization swept across the land. The devastation was catastrophic, yet humanity remained unaware of the true scale of the impending disaster."Just when we thought we'd seen the worst of it..."

"Grandpa, it's time to assign tasks to everyone so we can start rebuilding the settlement," Emily gently reminded Harold, who had been lost in thought while seated.Harold nodded, gathering himself as he stood up. "You're right, Emily. It's time," he affirmed, taking a deep breath to steel himself for the next phase.With a sense of purpose, Harold called for another assembly, the settlers gradually gathering around the central area, their faces a mix of weariness and anticipation."People of our settlement," Harold addressed the assembly, his voice carrying authority and a sense of urgency. "The time has come to rebuild, to rise from the ashes of what once was and create a fortified settlement that will stand against any adversity. It is true that we have all endured unimaginable pain but we must admit that time moves forward. As such we too must move on from the past. To ensure that everyone's abilities are used to their full extent we will all receive assignments."Eyes turned towa

50. The Conversation
Norah made her way towards her shelter, Troy catching up to her. "So, how was it?" he inquired.Confused, Norah asked, "How was what?" Troy smirked, "Being almost kidnapped by a power-hungry army tyrant." Norah, with a hint of amusement, replied, "With the Oppenheimer demonstration, we got - I found it interesting."Troy probed further, "So, you foresaw all of this, huh?"Norah confirmed, "Yes, I did, but you did too."Troy admitted, "Well, I had my assumptions - not as exact as it happened, but I had the general idea." As Norah attempted to leave, Troy grabbed her hand. "Wait," he said, releasing her hand quickly, apologizing, "Oops, sorry about that."Curious, Norah questioned, "What do you want, Troy?"Troy urged her, "You should be more honest with yourself, don't you think?" Norah, still skeptical, asked, "How so?" Troy boldly stated, "You finally met someone who understands you - completely. Admit it; you're thrilled." Norah, unfazed, retorted, "Dude, I literally have a tw

49. Un/wavering Resolve
Commander Slate, his tone filled with a sinister resolve, declared, "I cannot liberate the country if I murder all that remains of its citizens.

I won't let you."Commander Slate, attempting reason, asserted, "I am giving you the opportunity to save what remains of your settlement. Being stubborn is unwise for a leader, Harold."Harold, eyes burning with defiance, replied, "A leader doesn't let scumbags like you push him around. Your advantage is gone, and we're not your hostages anymore. I've neutralized your snipers."Commander Slate, unfazed, cryptically revealed, "Did you honestly think I wouldn't account for something like this? I already have the exact coordinates of this location. I could blow it up with a warhead if I felt like it."Shocked, Harold exclaimed, "A warhead

Confusion etched Harold's face as he struggled to comprehend the sudden shift in Sophia's demeanor. "Sophia, what's wrong?" he implored, his eyes searching hers for answers.With a disdained look, Sophia replied with a touch of sarcasm, "What do you mean what's wrong? ".Harold replied,"I'm confused right now. It's been years since I lost you, and now that I've finally found you, you seem displeased and not happy

47. The Dual Loyalties
Emily stood up and approached Commander Slate, tears streaming down her face. "I'm here now. There's no need to kill any more people. Let's go. You got what you wanted," she implored, her voice filled with both sadness and sorrow."Oh, Emilia - just how naive have you gotten? Has domestic life made you weak and sympathetic?" sneered Commander Slate as he leaned towards her, touching her shoulder. "There's no doubt that you're a valuable asset to my grand plan. But did you honestly think I'd come all the way out here in the outskirts of Johannesburg just for you?" he chuckled.Harold, unable to contain his anger, shouted, "What more do you want? You got your Emilia, now take her and leave us alone - go!"The settlers, having overheard the revelation, were plunged into a sea of emotions and disbelief.One of them exclaimed, "Emily was a spy? I can't believe it! All this time, we thought she was one of us!"Another settler, anger etched on their face, said, "Deceiving us like that... peo

46. The Broken Ties
Harold stared at Commander Slate, disbelief etched across his face. "Why would I give my granddaughter to you?" he questioned, dismissing the absurdity of the claim.Commander Slate, unfazed, remarked, "Granddaughter? Oh, I see now - so that's the cover she decided to use. Very smart. She used your emotional turmoil to get that close to you - she's an excellent agent as ever."Harold scoffed, "What nonsense are you talking about? Emily is not your agent - she's my granddaughter, and your claim of her being a spy is absurd. Surely you don't expect me to believe that."Commander Slate persisted, "Yes, I do expect you to believe it - that is the truth, after all. I planted Emilia in your settlement to collect intel on you people."Harold burst into laughter. "First of all, her name is Emily, not Emilia. Secondly, what's this crap about her being your agent? You can't seriously expect me to believe that my granddaughter is a spy now, will you?"Harold remained steadfast, "If that's what b

The tension between the two intensified as they raced toward where they left Esther and Spencer.Noah uttered, "If you had let me put a bullet in him, we'd have one less problem to worry about.""I know, alright – I messed up.

Is that gonna fix anything? Is that gonna change the fact that James is gonna demonize and go after all of us – the entire settlement? Huh?" Noah's accusations cut through

As the ground shook beneath him, Spencer felt a deep sense of anxiety. The approaching thumps and steps hinted at an incoming danger that he couldn't escape. "Seems like my time is up," he muttered, releasing a heavy sigh. Holding two grenades, one in each hand. He bit down on the safety pins, pulling them out with a determined resolve.Sitting against the cold wall, Spencer uttered, "Now we wait for those hideous bastards to get close. I'll take down as many as I can to buy Esther some time to get away." The entrance crumbled as a horde of Nephilims, disfigured and ominous, entered in large numbers. Spencer watched them with a sad gaze as they ran inhumanely towards him in various shapes and sizes.As the Nephilims closed in, Spencer threw the grenades towards them.

Esther's fingers tightened around the worn handle of her army knife as she exchanged a glance with Spencer. The near-empty magazine was a stark reminder that bullets wouldn't save them this time. "We're going old school, huh?" she spoke, a mixture of determination and humor in her voice.Spencer mirrored her resolve, pulling out his own knife. "No better way to go out than swinging," he replied, a smile playing on his lips. The realization of their dire situation hung in the air."It's funny how the hunters quickly became the hunted," Esther mused, her eyes flickering with a mix of irony and acceptance. Spencer nodded, acknowledging the twist of fate that brought them to this moment. "Maybe it's karma for deciding to kill our own friend to save ourselves," he added, the weight of their past decisions lingering in the conversation.There was a brief pause, a shared understanding passing between them. Spencer took a breath, about to express something, "Hey, Esther..."She cut him off ge

"Running low on ammo," she muttered, glancing over at Spencer, who shared a similar look.Spencer sighed, his eyes scanning the surroundings where the Nephilims had them cornered. "Looks like you and I are in a tight spot, my friend," he remarked, his tone tinged with a touch of dark humor that tried to mask the gravity of their situation.The building offered little support, its walls now serving as an cage with the relentless Nephilims closing in.
