THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 70 - Ongoing Feud
The man rose in the same distorted way that Adam had seen too many times already.“Oh fuck!” Adam muttered as he raised his sword.Before he could slice the man, though, the latter slumped to the floor and lay still.“What the…” A thud and another scream from Lisa made Adam turn towards the back.Nina was on the floor as well.She lay as still as the man on the floor.“What is going on?” he asked no one in particular.“I don’t know!” Lisa shouted with her eyes still fixed on Nina.Her bloodied hands were shaking as she continued, “One moment, she was... she was... changing into one of those things! And now... now she is like that!” She said hysterically.Adam looked toward Sophia.Wide-eyed and blood-stained as well, she merely nodded.“I don’t understand it,” she muttered almost to herself. “The dog bit her. The dog is…”“I need you two to go outside. Go outside now and get Mom here.”“But…”“Just go, Lisa,” Adam said hastily.She nodded without hesitation and went outside with Sop
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 71 - Not Enough Time.
“What are you going to do?"Lisa whispered to Adam.She had asked the same question multiple times already.And Adam still had only one answer: “I will think of something.”“But…”“Lisa, you will wake her up,” Caleb said from behind.Adam had no idea how he could remain so calm.He supposes a man of his dad's age and experience has had enough time to master the art of patience.Adam couldn’t relate.At the moment, he felt like railing at the world.He felt like getting out of the car and slashing every single zombie he could see into ribbons.He felt like he should check on Nina and ask her if the rope was too tight.He would have loved to ask her how she was feeling.What did the sickness feel like?He would have liked to ask the universe why Nina couldn’t have the same luck that he had.Instead, he drove.He drove as thoughts ran through his mind.He drove as his mother remained unconscious in the back while Jeremy held the vial and his father administered what was needed.He drove
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 72 - Better Than The Alternative
The girl was not on the bus! When the road was wide enough for Adam to overtake the bus without using the horn, He signaled to Carlisle to stop the bus. The search was quick and the result was disheartening. The kid was not on the bus! A wild guess made them check the van as well but she was not there. Instead, something more shocking was discovered. The skin tone of Nina and the man was changing. It is more grayish than fair at the moment. They were both snapping and snarling as the van door was opened. There was no longer any doubt about their fates. “Tough luck,” Layla said as she stared at Nina. “Mind your fucking business!” Adam snapped at her. He shut the van door tightly and turned away from her. “I was not being a bitch, you know. She was nice to me,” she said as she followed Adam to where the others were. They had seen a drive-in rest area right after Carlisle confirmed that the girl was not in the bus. The rest area was deserted yet it looked intact. At least
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 73 - Parents' Worst Nightmare
Adam could have broken down the door.But then he thought of the fact that they would need the door locked that night if they were staying there.So he ran to the back.There was a key left in the lock, so he hurriedly opened it and rushed towards the van.Layla was talking to his parents.Adam changed directions and rushed to where they were.“What is it? Are they here again?” Marriane asked anxiously.“What? Who? No!” Adam answered as he looked from his parent's expressionless face to Layla's.“What was she telling you?” he asked.“That you wanted us to stay here for the night?” Lisa answered while looking from Layla to Adam. "Was she lying? Is something wrong?""No, nothing. Oh, yes. We can stay here for now. We will leave as early as possible tomorrow morning. There are things to eat inside too,” Adam answered.“Good, let me help your mother inside,” Caleb said as he urged his wife up from where she was perched.“What the hell do you think you are doing?” Adam muttered heatedly to
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 74 - Not A Dream
Ryan and Carlisle did the honours.Adam couldn’t bring himself to shoot Nina, even though he knew there was nothing of her left in the snarling beast eager to claw his brains out.Ryan did the shooting.Together with Carlisle, he organized men to dig graves on the patch of land behind the rest areas.The two bodies were buried there.It was long past midnight before they finished.The rest area was as quiet as a graveyard when they came in.Though a few people, mostly kids, were asleep, nobody could muster enough energy and enthusiasm to say anything.Lisa and Layla were sitting away from the others. Layla’s arms were wrapped around Lisa’s as she shuddered lightly from time to time.Caleb had a faraway look on his face as he held his unconscious wife.Marriane was out for most of the night.Just as dawn was approaching, she woke up groggily.The first thing she said was, “It wasn’t a dream, was it?”Caleb shook his head dejectedly.Marriane looked over at Lisa, who was staring listle
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 75 - A Father's Duty
Marriane wouldn’t stop apologising to Yoshi.She was the one who grabbed Yoshi and stopped him from leaping to his death.The boy’s whitened face had stared mutedly at her as she apologised over and over again.Tears ran down her face until mucus from her nose joined it yet she seemed not to be able to stop herself from apologising.No amount of pacification from Caleb could stop her.She was alternatively apologising to Yoshi and to Nina.“My baby, I am sorry,” she would say suddenly, then clutch Yoshi to her side to apologise again.At long last, she fell asleep.Right next to Yoshi, who had slept beside her.She refused to eat anything all day, despite Adam and Caleb’s persuasion.“This would affect her health more,” Caleb said after staring out into the night for minutes after his wife fell asleep.Adam had nothing to say.He had no consolation to give because he was dealing with his own grief as well.Still, he said, “She is a strong woman. She…”“She is a woman who just lost her
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 76 - Circle Of Light
A scream pierced through the night. “Everybody, get the hell out!" Adam heard a commanding voice yell from the front. The van had stopped. “Get down now or I swear I would shoot your fucking head off!" “What?! What is going on? Are they here? Oh my God, Nina,” Marriane cried in a disoriented state as the noise woke her up. That pissed Adam off more than the uncertainty of what was happening. “Calm down, mom. They are not here.” “Well, someone certainly is!” Marriane snapped. She looked from side to side in wide-eyed terror as a high beam of torches pierced through the surroundings, illuminating the three vehicles. Another gunshot rang out before Adam could react. Marriane screamed. “They are coming for us! They took my daughter and now they are coming for us!” “Dad, please calm her down. Just stay here. Let me check this out," Adam said as he wondered who the bastards outside are. “No! No! No!” Marriane clung to his arm just as he was about to get out of the car. “No, s
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 77 - Shaky Fingers
The bullet slid down the erect sword.Then the sword fell down beside Adam innocently."Did you see that?"“It was just there!”“I swear it was standing on its own.”“What sorcery is this?”Adam heard people whisper around him.His ears still rang with the booming sound.“Adam?! Adam for God’s sake! Don’t die too!” Lisa’s voice pierced through the ringing in his ears.A familiar scent enveloped him before a dainty hand held his shoulder and turned him over.The scent became more pronounced as she moved closer to him.Her hands patted all over his body rapidly, like she was searching for something.She mustn’t have noticed that her fingers brushed his dick but his dick noticed alright.She let out a sigh as she said, “I thought you were dead for sure this time. Glad to see that I am wrong.”Adam opened his eyes as fast as his thundering head would allow.Layla was staring down at him with a small, relieved smile on her face.Their eyes held for a fleeting moment before Lisa dropped bes
