THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 1 - Good Riddance, Sucker!
Adam Smith thought his day was already bad enough as he walked home dejectedly. His ears were still ringing with the slaps and the stinging insults that his boss’s wife had hurled at him, right before she had her husband sacked him. The injustice of being sacked from the job he had laboured so hard to keep weighed on his mind, but nothing was as damning to him at that moment as the look of disappointment that he was sure to get from his girlfriend, Anastasia. Gone were the days when those eyes were filled with love as they gazed into his. Lately, Ana’s temper was always short with him, and she had even banned him from sleeping on the bed with her since she started paying for their apartment six months ago. “Since you are no longer man enough to take proper care of me, and I even have to pay for our rent now, you don’t deserve to touch me!” She yelled at him when he tried to talk about her coldness since things had worsened for him at his workplace. Adam sighed long and hard as he
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 2 - Fight To Win
Thwack!Not wasting his time thinking of the betrayal of those he had thought were his closest in a city far from his home, Adam didn’t think twice before he struck hard at the zombie when it reached for him again.Well-built with the right amount of muscle on his strapping frame, Adam had been the quarterback on his college football team before he came to Joville in search of work and a better life.His body strength had been the major reason why he had not collapsed from all the vigorous work they had started giving him in the company since he got demoted to the position of a messenger.So he was confident that he would get the upper hand on the zombie, who used to be a lanky man before he turned.To his surprise, though, the punch only sent the zombie back a few inches before he advanced on Adam again, more angry and resilient this time. Adam jumped on the bed while wielding the goose feather pillow he had snatched in his panic.He managed to get to the other side of the bed while
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 3 - Joy In Chaos
Relief flooded Adam’s heart as his mother picked up the call.“Adam? Adam, is that you?” She asked hesitantly, then her voice strengthened with hope.“Yes, mummy. It is me!” Adam whispered with happiness as he cupped his hand against the phone.The street was still deserted, and all he could hear were shouts from afar, but he didn’t dare speak out loud. “Are you okay, mom?” he asked urgently.Instead of answering, he heard his mother shout. “He is alive! Caleb, he is alive! My son is alive!”“Shh, don’t exert yourself, Marriane,” Adam heard his father say as he came closer.Tears rolled down Adam’s eyes unexpectedly at the joy of hearing his mother’s voice out loud.She had become sickly lately and had been bedridden on and off for months even before this happened.Sometimes, her voice would be so weak that Adam would barely hear her.Yet, they had always encouraged him to not worry so much about them and to try to make a life for himself.“I will take care of my wife. You take care o
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 4 - Learn Or Be Forced To
Almost thirty minutes later, after Adam had thought he would certainly end up as zombie food, he was breathing so hard as he watched the two crystal cores that had rolled out of two of the zombies’ shimmer and disappear.Immediately, the spatial storehouse shimmered too and expanded in dimensions twice. 6 cubic metres wide now.Adam waited for the third crystal core to roll out of the adult male zombie, but nothing came out.With no intention to waste his time wondering about that, he quickly left where he was standing.Three things were clear to him now, though.The more crystal cores he got from killing the zombies, the wider the spatial storehouse got.Each core was equivalent to 1 cubic metre. The spatial storage would shimmer and expand according to how many core he got.Also, it was not all the zombies that had the cores in their brains.As he moved farther away from what used to be his home, taking in the destruction on the once-busy roads of Joville, Adam knew that his world w
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 5 - Not For Rent
Adam soon realised that the Jeep he took wasn’t just any car but a modified one with amazing capabilities.As he had predicted; as he drove the jeep through the deserted streets of Joville; the sound attracted zombies from street corners, doorways, and houses.Although most zombies couldn’t keep up with him, a few with immense speed still came after him.He fired the engines to the utmost as he ran down many zombies who tried to block his path.Like moths to flame, they were drawn by the sound of the heavy-duty Rebel jeep and he didn’t hesitate to clear them off the road as well.Until he came across a fallen lorry right in the middle of the road.The driver must have lost control when they attacked him.Just as he was wondering what to do, Adam saw from his side mirror that one zombie had clung to the edge of the jeep’s bed.Adam made sure that all the windows were tightly shut, yet he knew that he would be like a goose for them to pick off if he did not do something fast.More zombi
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 6 - Gallantry Gone Wrong
Adam did not tell the girl Sybil about his intention to ride in her father’s jet. He only ensured that the teenage boys did something with their overflowing testosterone before allowing them into the Jeep.“I don’t want your money,” he said reluctantly after Sybil had begged him with desperation in her voice. “But there will be no free rides here. First, you guys need to load those gallons into the Jeep bed. Second, I have a favor to ask of you. I will tell you about it later. Those are my conditions for taking you to the airstrip. Agreed?” He asked with a bit of sternness in his tone.He wished Ana could see him now. She had once told him that he was nothing but a wimp and a silly ass fool who couldn’t stand up for himself against his abusive boss. In fact, he wished his boss and his wife could see him at the moment. Yes, he might currently be standing up to a bunch of teenagers, but it was a start, right? And from their clothes, he knew they were all rich people. The symbol of tho
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 7 - Who Is In Charge Now?
With a strength borne out of sheer desperation, Adam rolled away from the infected hands reaching for him.“Don’t get scratched. Don’t get scratched!” he repeated to himself as an involuntary groan escaped his throat when his roll affected his bruised shin.Adam was not sure but his bone seemed broken. Blood was still seeping into the tight, black jean but his attention was more on the zombies, who were snarling more loudly now when they missed their target. They changed their direction and started ambling towards him again. This set of zombies was the slowest he had seen so far, but Adam knew they were dangerous nonetheless. scratch, and he would be doomed anyway.He believed he had gotten lucky the first time and he was not about to risk that luck again. He could have outrun them if he was in good shape but when he tried to run. Pain shot through him and his legs buckled as more blood flowed out of his left leg. The jean was soaked from the chin down to the edge now.One of the zo
