THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 132 - Babysitting A Macho Man
Layla had to stiffen her sob as she looked at the unconscious body of her aunt, heavily swaddled in bandages.All she could see on her face were her closed eyes.She shuddered as the thought of losing Aunt Cathy forever filled her mind.“Captain would be fine.”She raised her head and turned at the sound of the mechanical voice.She had almost forgotten that Ralph was there with her.She had met him standing guard at the entrance of the cubicle when the doctors allowed her to come in.Layla sniffled and nodded at Ralph.She wondered if robots could be emotional after all, or if he was just acting as he had been trained.“I know, Ralph. I just wish she would be well soon enough and leave this goddamn bed,” she said.“Colonel is strong. She would be fine,” he said again in that toneless voice as his round eyes moved from her to Colonel Aguillar.Layla tried for a smile but it fell flat, so she simply looked away from him.“You are sad. Colonel wouldn’t want you to be sad. What can Ralph
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 133 - Weight Of The World
After ensuring Shelby that he would sort the issue out, Adam quickly went out to join the lieutenant’s men.He had promised Yoshi that Marriane would be okay and he wished the women would fulfill their promise of looking after Lisa and checking up on Layla while he was gone.He hadn’t been able to talk to Sophia.Shelby said she was taking a nap after one of her episodes of an excruciating headache. Something she had been having more frequently since the accident happened.Adam dragged on the backpack he had borrowed from Shelby and he felt like he was strapping on the weight of the world on his shoulder.He knew he smelled foul from all the sweat and blood but there was no time to clean up.He was sure that the lieutenant wouldn’t mind leaving him behind if he happened to be late.As it was, they were already aboard when Adam caught up with them.Lieutenant Matteo raised his brow and said, “I see you have not changed your mind.”“I wouldn’t even dream of it,” Adam said as he climbed
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 134 - Less Caution, More Action
A buzzing sound made Adam slap hard at the watch the lieutenant had insisted he take with him when he was about to leave the aeroplane.It was a countdown alarm watch.Adam looked at the oval face of the plain watch and saw it counting down from five minutes.“Shit!” he thought to himself as he looked out from the side of the clubhouse building where he stood.The area they dropped him at seemed deserted and free of zombies at first but he had not gone far before he saw them pouring out of buildings and alleyways.The airplane’s rotor had been silenced in such a way that it was barely more than a hum yet they must have sensed it.The soldiers were divided into two.Some were outside the city wall, while others landed inside.Adam had no idea what they were looking for.At the moment, he couldn’t care less.He just wanted to get what could save his mother.One thing he had realised in the past five minutes, though, was that no beasts were within the walls of Alagan, only outside.Which
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 135 - Filial But Stupid Man
Liuetenant Matteo discovered something alright.It wasn’t the weakness of the beasts, as his superiors would be expecting.It was that the beasts wanted nothing to do with the zombies and vice versa.While he hesitated to leave in the hope that Adam would still come out alive, he had seen some of the zombies walk out of Alagan.The beats were lying in wait for them.Lieutenant Matteo had thought that a solution to one of their problems was about to materialise right there.Instead, the beasts only gave the zombies a wide berth.Apart from snarling at them, the zombies quickly lost interest in the beasts as well.They passed each other like they were allergic to each other.“Damn it!” he muttered and told Pete to move.He had only waited a while because he didn’t want to have to answer uncomfortable questions back at the shelter.As time passed swiftly, he accepted the fact that Adam had met his death in Alagan.The watch he gave him had a tracker.He had told Pete to fly over the spot
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 136 - That Asshole Van Claude
Lieutennat Matteo immediately had Jean sent out of the facility.His snivelling and cries for mercy could be heard throughout the facility as people left their duty posts and came to watch him being thrown out.“If you have enough strength to kill people, you should have enough strength to survive out there on your own,” Lt. Matteo said with fury as he turned deaf ears to Jean’s pleas.Two of his men dragged Jean out of the facility like a dog.“That means he would die out there,” one woman whispered to another.“Or he would become one of those things.”“Zombies. They are called zombies, Maggie. Not mentioning them doesn’t mean they are not out there.”“Umph!”Anastasia, who was just coming from the bathroom, where she was trying to wax her legs with a coarse blade, rushed towards the lieutenant as she heard Jean’s whimpering voice yelling and calling for help.“Sir, please. You can’t just throw him out. He is the son of the Van Claudes of...."She shut her mouth as the lieutenant tur
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 137 - One Step Away
Hate filled Anastasia’s heart as she saw the men who dragged Jean out of the facility come back and they passed her without so much as glancing her way.Sure, he was an asshole that had been a jerk to her once he was done with her, but at least she could still count on him in a way.He had become nicer to her after she testified against that nosy rat and had even stopped calling her a bitch at every turn.She was just trying to spruce herself up by shaving to see if she could entice him into accepting her as his girlfriend again.Sure, they had fucked a couple of times since then but they were not back officially.This was her chance to make him hers again!Her chance to have it all once this little inconvenience was over!The chance to become the daughter-in-law of a rich family once they were back in Joville!She would have been the stewardess of a big home and the co-owner of the influential Van Claude company now that Jean’s family had been wiped out in the Vegas zombie invasion.
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 138 - Her Perfect Revenge
Lisa had not walked far when she started hearing shouts from outside.Some of the shelter’s original guards stationed around the scientists quarter rushed past Lisa and she quickly flattened herself against the wall to avoid being knocked down.Her head still ached from her incessant crying before and after they switched off the life-supporting machine of Dr. Blair.Guilt weighed heavily on her as she tried to dispel the image of Dr. Blair being wheeled out.She was curious about what was happening outside but she was even more curious about what happened to her brother.She took the corner that led to the lieutenant’s office and saw him striding away down the hall."Lieu..." She saw him taking the turn that led towards the entrance before she could call out to him."Shit,” she said and she hurried after him.“Going somewhere?” Anastasia stepped out of the shadow of the alcove where she was lurking.Lisa’s breath backed up in her lungs and her hand flew to her chest in fright.When sh
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 139 - Once A Loser, Always A Loser
Blood trailed Anastasia’s path as she dragged Lisa with her outside. The low whimpering noises coming from the unconscious Lisa had no impact on her, as she was fixated on getting her revenge. More gunshots resounded as she got closer to the archway that led outside. “What the hell?” one of the few harried soldiers said as he saw her dragging someone out. “What the hell are you doing? Get back inside!” he said as he climbed a convertible close to the walls in order to get a better look at the zombies trying to climb the walls from that side. He quickly turned away from her, fully expecting her to heed his warning. Anastasia was not about to give up, though. “I will get my revenge!” she kept muttering to herself as she dragged Lisa over the rough-tiled ground. Few of the people in the shelter who had been watching the soldiers keep the zombies back through the windows suddenly saw her and they started shouting, “Is that not Mr. Van Claude’s girlfriend? What is she doing?” A wom
