THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 217 - Typical Teenager
The journey to Maradoit was uneventful.Adam was happy to see everyone again.Things were going smoothly and the first crops they planted had started germinating.Sophia’s mood seemed to have improved and she even greeted Adam cordially.Adam was glad to hear that she was also training now and that she had even joined the scavenging team.Though they had informed him earlier on the phone, Adam was glad to see that for himself.He and Theo got to the mansion just as the team came in with what they could get for the day.One of them was injured while they were running but none of them were taken down.At least not that day.Two people had died since Adam left.Adam went to the graves dug for them in the section they set aside for things like that.One of them was called Aaron, a young man of 19 years old that Adam had only had the chance to speak to a few times.And it had always been in general.Adam realised that Jeremy and the guy had gotten closer before the boy’s death.In fact, th
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 218 - Libido-Saving Venture
Adam wondered if he should speak to Jeremy about what Shelby said.Then he eventually dismissed the thought.What would be the point anyway? He wondered.The boy in question was already dead, and there was no point in causing Jeremy more distress.So as he went back to the house, he gathered everyone together in time for Jeremy to be able to talk to them.When Jeremy did not come on time and he realised that he still had fourteen minutes before the thirty-minute duration would be over, Adam used that opportunity to talk to everyone.He explained what they were trying to work on to everyone and they were so happy about the fact that something like that could be achieved.They marvelled at the way Emir and his men had come through and those with little background in science tried to guess what the chemical used for that latent spray was.They were still talking when Jeremy hesitantly walked in.He was startled at first when he saw everyone gathered together.Then he threw Adam a gratefu
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 219 - Nurturing Streak
Adam didn’t have to do much convincing.Although Marriane admitted that she would have preferred that she had at least one of them with her, she agreed that their separation was for the betterment of everyone.She would have loved to come with them, but she was more like the housekeeper of Trent’s house now; she oversaw most things like the kitchen activities, the pond routine, and housekeeping.Most people look to her for succor and advice too and she was always the first person anyone would go to when something was needed in the house.“Coming with you would be a selfish thing to do,” she responded when Adam asked if she would like to come with them.“At least, I would have Yoshi here with me,” she said after Adam told her that he would be taking Jeremy with him.So that evening, after those on the lookout had gathered to kill a lone zombie that had strayed that far, Adam and his entourage gathered for takeoff.Lisa’s tools and other luggage had been packed earlier.Adam watched his
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 220 - Nasty Surprise
Adam gave Jeremy some fruit juice and then a bag of cheese crackers after he woke up.They had landed by this time.In fact, Adam suspected the jolt of the plane landing on the uneven ground helped to wake Jeremy faster than the reviving techniques they had been trying on him.Just as the turbulence had made him faint,."I didn't peg you for a scaredy-cat.” Adam teased Jeremy as he sucked down the 500 ml of fruit juice.“I am not,” Jeremy said emphatically.“Hello? Are you forgetting something?” Adam teased further as he watched colour return to his face.“It was because of my low sugar level,” Jeremy said belligerently.“I recall you took some glucose before we took off,” Adam persisted. “What happened to that?”“Well, I…”“Leave him alone, you big bully,” Lisa admonished Adam when Jeremy’s cheeks coloured further with embarrassment.“Me? I did nothing,” Adam said in innocence.“Yeah, right. Go away,” Lisa said.“Yes, ma’am. I am gone,” Adam said with a grin.Then he grew serious, as
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 221 - Hornet's Nest
They started coming from everywhere. The more the zombies that were with them snarled and growled, the more other zombies started coming to join the feast. Adam regretted his urge to stop at that place. As he swung, slashed, and cut, he wished he had never thought of stopping at all. He took no notice of the crazily increasing storehouse.Cores dropped in succession and the storehouse increased in tune with it.Adam was too busy fighting for survival to marvel at the size of the storehouse.One couldn't stand at one side and see the other side of the storehouse again at this point.Adam was sweating profusely as black blood flew yet more zombies poured out of what had once seemed like a ghost town.It was like entering a hornet’s nest. The more he killed, the more they started coming. Theo was holding his own, and Adam was helping him out whenever he could. But when Adam was able to pull out a gun and toss it to Theo, the gun fell to the ground uselessly as Theo shouted, “I don
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 222 - More Than A First Aid
Adam ran as fast as his pain-wracked body would allow. The angry shrieks and snarls behind him were thrumming in his head. Even though the sword kept slashing zombies down behind him while following him, the zombies were relentless in their pursuit. At that moment, Adam thought fondly of the chemical the Emir’s men had used on the zombies. He would make it his life mission to ensure they had something like that too. That was if he survived. Which was not looking so likely at the moment. The bites on his body hurt like hell as he ran without pause. The overgrown weeds slowed him down, while the mindless zombies plowed on without stopping. He had to turn to shoot at the closest two zombies that escaped the sword’s reach, even while backing away. The zombies were gaining on him as the airplane came into view. He could see the anxious faces of Lisa and Jeremy by the window as they were yelling something he couldn’t hear. The sword gained him some ground as he quickly climbed th
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 223 - Divine View
Hoping that he wouldn’t cause their crash, Adam quickly turned his phone on and searched for how to land an airplane while it was on autopilot.He could see the anxiety on Lisa’s face as she removed her jacket and placed it on him to keep him warm.Silent and morose, Jeremy stared intently at the unconscious body.Lisa looked up at Adam and he could feel the hope dying in her as she asked, “How far to go?”“Not too far,” Adam stated.Not that he was so certain of all the digits and radars on the system.He just hoped they would soon be in Sydney.He was glad for the fact that Theo had already inputted their destination into the control system before the unfortunate incident happened.Adam looked over at the body on the floor.The blood had finally stopped.Lisa had made sure of that.Still, Thomas remained very unconscious.When Adam had checked his pulse earlier, it had been threadbare.Things were not looking good at all.Adam took his mind off the morbid thoughts and focused on sea
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 224 - I Knocked Her Out
Adam recognised the car even before he saw the cutout van behind it. His heart leaped for joy when he saw Layla at the wheel of the car. But then his happiness was tainted by what Lisa just told him. He looked back at his sister just as the car parked. “You are sure?” he asked urgently. With tears in her eyes, Lisa nodded. Adam stepped out of the car. “Adam!” Layla called excitedly as she rushed forward to hug him. The men in the van came down just as Layla realised that Adam was not as excited as she was. She moved back from his embrace and asked, “What is wrong? Were you able to get…” Layla saw Lisa at the back of the car just then. She smiled in greeting and said, “Glad to see you are okay, Lisa.” “Hi, Layla,” Lisa responded in a gloomy tone. That made Lisa’s brow rise in confusion as she looked back at Adam and asked, “What is the problem?” Adam didn’t bother to mince words. “It is Theo,” he answered. Layla automatically looked towards the airplane, where Jeremy w
