THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 200 - To Kill, To Live
Adam made a quick detour to the basement chemical station slash clinic.He told the chemists to put a stop to what they were doing.They were all reluctant at first but then his brisk manner made them realise that he was not a man they would want to cross paths with.He gave them new instructions before he left them with their mixing and measuring.Just as he came outside, he saw Gwen and her blood-spattered dad talking as he came outside.She hurried to him and asked, “Daddy told me what happened. It wasn’t daddy’s fault. Would you take it out on us? On mum?”Adam raised his voice so Jared could hear as he said, “Then I suppose your dad should have told you that asking stupid questions like that could get you killed faster than any other thing.”With that, Adam left them behind as he went to search for the men to have a discussion with them.He told Theo to get them together and they were all together in no time at all.Adam didn’t waste time explaining the situation to them.He aske

“About that cure...”Adam heard some of the men laugh, and he also smiled as well.Even though some of them ribbed the man good-naturedly, Adam could see that they were very interested in the answer to that question.So he answered it truthfully.“We have to use this on one of you at least to be certain it would do the same thing for you just as it did for my mom. A doctor would test that person after administering. Then we would need to do mass production so it would go around.”“Aye”“Good”“Hope at last.”The men spoke over themselves and genuine smiles showed on their faces as some of them thumped themselves on their backs as they went on their way.“Thank you,” the one-eared man said with a vigorous nod before he hurried after the rest.Their joy and obvious relief only weighed on Adam.He hoped the solution would work just as well as it should.If not, they were going to be so disappointed.“The test. That was what you wanted to do with me,” Theo said as he moved closer to Adam.
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 202 - New Breed
Adam couldn’t tell Carson. Once the men were in formation, and Layla and Maddy were overseeing the session, he excused himself and went to the virology centre. For the second time, he entered the centre and saw everyone busy with one thing and the other. If not for the madness raging outside that might crash over them anytime soon, one could almost take it for another normal day where scientists were doing what they do best. One of them told him where Carson was and Adam went there after assuring the lady that he wouldn’t just walk in without knocking first. Adam could see why she had insisted on that. The notice DO NOT ENTER UNLESS TOLD TO was in front of the room. Adam could see Carson and the woman he had once seen in UChicago working on something. They were both suited up and the woman had a chart and a pen in her hands like she was writing down observations about what Carson had in front of him. They were in what seemed like an intense conversation, so he waited for a pro

Adam got back to the training ground to see Maddy beating the crap out of the one-eared man.Layla stood aside with no intention to separate them.Some of the men found it hard to concentrate on their training, as they kept looking over at the man whenever he groaned in pain.One thing Adam would give to the man, though, was that he kept getting up despite how many times Maddy kept slamming him to the ground.“I assume this is all part of training.” Adm asked Layla uncertainly.Even he winced at a particular slam dunk that Maddy gave the man.Layla looked back at him with a smile and said, “Yeah. A little bit of that. And a little bit because he reminded us that we are women and we don’t have any business showing them, the men, how to fight. Well, Maddy is showing him.”“And you are watching.”“Yep, enjoying it, actually,” Layla answered with a shrug.“Ah”“Ah”Layla looked back at him and smiled mischievously. "Alright,” she said with a long-suffering sigh. “Just do what you are itch

“I am sorry,” Jared said again.Adam knew the man was not as remorseful as he was pretending to be. He just wanted Adam to do what he wanted.Jared looked up at him and said, “Okay, what about this? You all wanted us gone anyway. If you think she would be a threat to you all, you can let me have her. I have my car here. I can take her back to...take her away from here. She is my wife and you can’t just expect me to let you kill her like that.”“And someone else is your daughter but you don’t mind that your buddy would have killed her. Wow, real smooth, Watson. Real smooth”“I…”“I am not interested. I like your offer.”“You…you do?”"Dad!” Gwen protested with a whimper. “She already said we can stay.”Layla already spoke to them? Well, it doesn’t matter.Adam could see that the man had initially said what he said because he was expecting Adam to counter him.The coward had no intention of leaving, especially now that he had no human buffer to shield him and his precious family.Adam
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 205 - More Bark Than Bite
Patricia was a mess.Little of the uptight, well-groomed woman Adam had seen earlier was left in the new Patricia.She looked worse than she was the last time Adam saw her.Adam had to send Jared out after he tried twice to get close to her.Adam also had to steel his heart and remind himself of the kind of people they were in order not to feel sorry for them.Though it was barely audible, even Adam could hear the gttural, rumbling call of Jared’s name as Patricia pinned her gaze to him immediately as they entered.It was as if she was calling for help.The bloodshot eyes and black saliva dripping from the woman he had held in his arms seemed too much for Jared to bear.Adam felt for him for a second.Then he sent him out with explicit instructions for the men at the door that they shouldn’t let him back in.“Well, Patricia. Carson seems to think you are special. Are you going to prove him right or wrong?”Adam kept his gaze on her red-rimmed eyes as he spoke, just to gauge her reacti
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 206 - Undead Wife
Carson and his team were waiting to take Patricia in.Jared made an attempt to follow them into the facility but a look from Adam was enough to stop him.His daughter was not as sensitive as her father, of course.She cried, screamed, and cursed as they were taking her mother away.Maddy was glad to do everyone a favour by shutting her up.With a sharp slap to the face that made a resounding cracking sound that shut Gwen up fast enough, she smiled and declared loudly, “We are going to be best friends.”No one gave the spoilt brat a second look, where she crumpled with a sharp yelp.Her father was too busy staring after his unconscious, undead wife.Those who had stopped to watch the entire thing unfold got back to training and their activities.Soon enough, those training dispersed, and Adam talked to them again.They made arrangements to secure all the perimeters of the property as best as they could.Adam had another meeting with the chemists who were working on the destructive chem
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 207 - Objects Of Interest
With bated breaths and apprehension, everyone was on alert.The men with the silencer-fitted guns were ready to shoot once the zombies got too close.Those with clubs and various other fighting tools were ready to strike as well.Contrary to the people’s thoughts at first, the airplanes were not heading straight for the house.Oh, they came a bit close to it but not too close.Then they started descending.Adam, who was quietly on his way to join the men at the treehouse at this time, gauged the area where the aeroplanes were descending to be around the area where they landed the helicopter when they first arrived.The zombies were coming closer now, snarling nastily as it seemed they were increasing in numbers."It is going to be a tough one if they head for the house instead." Adam thought in anxiety.Just as he climbed up the treehouse stairway while crouching to keep out of sight, he realised that the zombies were totally ignoring the house.He opened the door to meet the wide-eye
