2024-05-22 14:23:25Lisa and Alex saw many people tied to poles that were being experimented on. Alex felt a sharp pain in his head again and he fell to the ground. The system sends a message again.
[ SYSTEM MESSAGE: THE HOSPITAL HAS BEEN COMPROMISED, LEAVE AND MOVE TO A SAFE LOCATION] [ SYSTEM REWARD; YOUR SUV AWAITS YOU JUST OUTSIDE THE HOSPITAL. MAKE IT THERE IN TIME BEFORE THE HERD REACHES YOU ] Alex got up " It looks like this place has been overrun with some shady people. The system just asked us to leave." He sighed looking at Alex's face. " Look, that is Doctor Morgan," Lisa shouted looking at Alex to walk closer to the Zombie with a white uniform. " I think whoever was outside there killed the real Doctor Morgan. We have to leave here as soon as possible." Alex looked at Lisa " Did the system tell you anywhere we are supposed to go?" Lisa quickly shot a zombie that was moving closer to them in the head. " I think there is something special about them. " Alex walked closer to the cage looking at their faces. " What? Lisa asked pulling him back "Don't get too close to them." " They seem in control of what they are doing. look over there. Dr Morgan is seated and it looks like he is in control." " Yes, I am." A voice came back at Rick as they were about to move back. " Whoever it is that you met inside the facilities is trying to make superhuman zombie soldiers to take over the world. Don't let them and you need to burn this place to the ground. They have succeeded seeing you are here. They have your blood and that is what they need. You need to get out of here now." " You are going to do no such thing." Alex heard a voice behind him and he turned to face the fake Doctor Morgan. " I know what you are doing and I am going to stop you." " Stop me? I am trying to save the world and make it a better place. Join me and we can rule together. I will destroy anyone that stands in my way." She threatened and Alex could see the red veins in her blood. " What did you do to yourself? " Alex asked Frightened " I am better, the zombie apocalypse is a blessing in disguise don't you see? I am faster and stronger." She shouted at Alex " I am going to try and buy us more time, Lisa. Run!." Lisa wanted to run but was met by some guards. " Going somewhere love. " one of the guards looked at Lisa and she stuck an arrow inside his eyes. " Both of you are not leaving here today. It is either you join me or you die." Fiona shouted again She charged at Alex and the combat began between the both of them. Lisa on the other hand tried to fight off the guards stopping her from leaving. Alex was brutally beaten by Fiona. She was faster and stronger than him. Alex noticed Doctor Morgan had been trying to have himself freed. He reached for his gun and shot the padlock at the gates. " What has you done you fool?" Fiona cried out trying to run out of the building but Morgan jumped right at her front. " I will take it from here. Go and help your friend." The zombies began to swarm into the facilities as Rick and Lisa tried their best to fight the soldiers. " I am not that weak. You might have been the greatest of my inventory but I am faster and stronger thanks to his blood." Fiona looked at Morgan who was bleeding from the gunshot wound some of Fiona's men shot at him. " we are both going to die here today." Morgan looked at her Fiona taunted looking at her hand drenched in Morgan's blood " If you are in a hurry to die then die alone. I don't think I am ready to depart from this world yet." Rick looked at a gasoline tank beside them and looked at Morgan who nodded for him to shoot when the time was right. Lisa and Rick immediately got back to trying to find a way and suddenly they heard a loud burst the the main gate. Rick and Lisa looked at each other as they heard a loud noise of a horde coming towards them. " We have to leave now or we won't make it," Alex shouted at Lisa " Go, and get your blood out from that facility," Morgan shouted Alex looked at the gasoline thanks and shot at it. It blasted as they were out of the building making the whole building crumble. As they run, they weave through the zombies that want a taste of their flesh. They climbed the roof and barred the doors. " I think we are trapped." Lisa looked at Rick who was trying to get his breath back. That is the least of our worries. " I need to find my blood sample and the one that was taken from you." Rick walked into the blood laboratory and saw a lot of blood samples. " I think we are going to be here for a very long time," Lisa said gently falling to the ground. Her stomach groaned showing she was hungry. Rick opened a cabinet and saw some snacks stacked inside. He threw some to Lisa and sat down. "I am lost, the system asked us to come here, and now this." [ RICK SIGHED ] They began to look for the blood sample and after many hours of nonstop search. Lisa shouted, " I found it." She heard hers and Rick's own too. " We need to leave now." They walked back to the door " We need to make it through to the main gate. The system had provided us with an SUV van. We can find my family and locate the safe house with it. But first, we need to make it there. I am going to count one to three and open. Get ready!" Rick looked at Lisa's face as he counted his fingers but when he unbarred the door they were met with the stern look of an half zombie and half-human staring at them with anger.

Rick was surprised to see a zombie staring at him and Lisa as they unbarred the door. "What the hell is that?" Lisa shouted, helping Rick to have the door closed back. "We need a way out of here." Lisa looked at Rick, who was pacing up and down. The whole hospital had been taken over by the horde. Their noise was visibly heard as Rick kept pacing back and forth. The system had provided a ride, and all they needed was to get there in time. "Did you see that?" Lisa looked at Rick. "And can you stop pacing? You are making me nervous." "I didn't see what you saw, Lisa. I saw a zombie that was ready to attack us, if that is what you are asking of me." Rick said, gently rubbing his hands over his hair. He brought out his gun and checked the rounds he had left. He knew a few rounds would save them from the zombies. He needed a plan, and it had to be fast. "The zombie we saw when the door was opened was different. It is almost like she knew what she was doing." Lisa tried to gain Rick's at

Rick looked at Lisa and noticed she was getting hot. He looked at the SUV van and quickly ran towards it, trying to open the door. "Damn it!" Rick shouted. "What is it?" Lisa managed to speak, looking at Rick, who was getting worked up. They both looked back and saw Morgan walking towards them with the herd. Rick looked around and saw an iron bar that he used to pry the door open. He ran back towards Lisa and helped her to her feet. They managed to get into the SUV van just in time before the hearing got to them. "You can hide forever." Morgan shouted with her face, now a zombie."What did your blood do to her?" Lisa looked at Rick. "I am not sure. How are you feeling?" Rick looked at Lisa. He saw that her eyes were getting white and were looking horrible. He knew she was changing. Lisa noticed the look on his face and smiled. "You don't have to look at me like that." She said and coughed,vomiting some blood. Rick looked around the van and gave her a white cloth. The van shook gre

"Jack?" Rick said it in disbelief. "What the hell are you doing here?" He asked, picking up his baton. "The last time I heard..." "I was in Singapore." Jack replied, looking at Rick. He saw the state he was in and sighed. "I can't believe this would be the end of the world. I had always pictured the aliens coming for us, but now I can't anymore. It is too much for me to bear." Jack said it with a sad face. Jack and Rick had been childhood friends. They both planned to become officers of the law, but then Jack's parents went against it and had him flown out of the country. "What about your parents? Are they alright?" Rick looked at him, and he shook his head. "Are you telling me Singapore is in the same dilemma that we are?" Rick asked, looking scared. "Didn't you listen to the news? Almost all the countries are hit with the virus. There is no place to hide." Jack replied and looked up. "What is that?" He said, holding his baton firm. " What?" Rick asked, turning back to look at wh

"Is everything alright?" Rick asked, looking at Lisa. "I think we need to go on foot from here." Lisa turned back to meet the gazes of Jack and Rick. "Why?" Jack asked, feeling a little scared. "Why do we need to go on foot?" Rick asked, leaving Jack at the rear end. "Do you see this?" Lisa showed Rick a part of the map. "We need to go on foot so that we won't attract any hordes when going. Also, we don't want to make the same mistake we made when we went to check the hospital out." Rick nodded and looked at Jack. "We might need to set out on foot from here on. Don't worry, we are going to be fine," Rick said with a smile, noticing the look on Jack's face. "Have you gotten any message from the system on what to do next? We can't just continue living in this shithole." Lisa said, grabbing her backs and things. "I haven't. I think the last message I got was when we were giving out an SUV van. That was the last time it reached out to me." Rick replied Jack looked at them and was lost.

Lisa and Rick circled the back to have the men surrounded, but the squeak sound made by Jack had them turn back. "Slowly, don't flinch.". The man said to Jack "They have me!" Jack shouted, making Lisa and Rick stay put. Their weapon was collected, and they were tied together. A man seated by the fire looked towards Lisa and Rick as they were tied to the tree in front of them. "What should we do with them?" One of the men asked, walking towards the man. The burning fire crackled, revealing his face. "Bring them to me." He ordered Rick, Lisa and Jack were immediately untied and brought before the man. "We are not going to hurt you. We just wanted a place to pass the night, and we would be on our way at first light." Rick looked at the man without being asked anything. "It doesn't look that way to me. It looks like you are going to kill us." The man replied that he was eating part of the roasted rabbit by the fire. "I was going to kill you. The world is a mess right now. Either you ki

Lisa removed the cloth Jack had tied around his neck, and she saw he was bitten. "He is bitten." Lisa spoke slowly and walked away. Rick looked at Jack and felt sorry for him. "When did this happen?" he asked, looking at his face. "Yesterday night, the zombie had bitten me before you came over to rescue me." Jack said he was coughing. "Am I going to become one of those things?" Jack said it with a scared face. Rick nodded and looked at him. "What do you want me to do?" "I can't become one of them. I need you to put me down before I do." Jack made Rick promise him. The two agreed, and Rick looked at the men they had tied down. "I am going to release you all now, but if you try anything funny, I swear to the gods I am going to kill every last one of you." He said it with a stern face. Jack and Rick untied them, and they continued their journey with Lisa. I'm in front of them. The journey was a little boring, with each crew member minding their own business.

Jack felt his bones snap as his memories began to fade away. He knew he was becoming a zombie. He wanted to take Rick's gun as he shot himself in the head, but it was too late. The gun fell from his hands, and he snarled gently. His eyes were becoming whitish as he became a zombie. The snarling sound of the horde woke Rick up. A system message immediately appeared right in front of him. [SYSTEM TASK: REACH THE SAFE ZONE BEFORE TONIGHT] [SYSTEM REWARD; REUNITE WITH FAMILY] Rick looked back and saw that the zombies were gaining in on him. He immediately tried to reach for his gun, but then he saw it on the floor, right in front of Jack. "Pass me the gun, Jack." Rick whispered, not trying to draw the horde to themselves. Jack looked back, and Rick was frightened. He had turned and was just eating a seat antelope in front of him. Rick jumped to his feet as he kept hearing the firing of gunshots. He knew he had to leave the forest and find Lisa. The zombies came at Rick as he took a s

Rick tried to stall for some time as he kept praying the zombie jack should come in their direction. "I was just following orders as you would if you were in my shoes. Nothing personal, man." Rick said this with his hand up in the air. "You had my life in a mess, and now I am going to take yours." Patrick said he was about to shoot Rick. Jack's snarl got closer, and Patrick looked back to take a shot at him. Rick rushed at him, making him miss his target. He immediately had him pinned down and kicked in the gut. Jack snarled towards Rick, and he pushed him at Patrick. Rick locked the door as he heard the loud noise of Patrick being eaten by Jack. Rick knew the world they lived in was either you were killed by the zombie or your fellow human killed you. He wasn't going to allow any of them. He was going to show humanity and rescue his family. He remembered the system had given him until nightfall. Rick wondered what might go wrong if he couldn't make it to his family that night. He

Chapter thirty nine
The weeks that followed Joel’s death were a blur of blood, fire, and vengeance. Rick’s grief became his fuel. Lisa barely spoke, haunted eyes fixed on nothing, her body moving only because Rick insisted they couldn’t stop—not now. Not after what Joel had lost. They found temporary refuge in an abandoned comms outpost. There, Rick discovered that the system inside him—whatever synthetic, parasitic technology it was—had fused with his DNA. His blood had mutated. It was the first spark of hope they’d had in months. Word traveled fast. Survivors across sectors whispered of a man with blood that burned the virus away. The resistance, previously fractured and demoralized, rallied around that hope—and around Rick. They named him The Living Cure. But Rick had only one goal: Gregor. The Final Siege. The resistance mounted a full-scale assault on Compound Zero—Gregor’s fortress, where the virus was born. The sky was ash-gray that morning, wind carrying the scent of smoke and death. Rick
Chapter thirty eight
The entire compound pulsed with a dreadful urgency. Sirens wailed in bursts, like a dying animal's cry. Red lights throbbed above, casting shadows that twisted like phantoms across the walls. Rick’s breath tore from his lungs as he sprinted down the stairwell, two steps at a time.The loud noise of the siren was getting too loud that Rick was worried it was going to attract the zombies. The system’s words echoed in his mind, hollow and inescapable. He didn’t know what Phase One meant—only that it started with him. That Joel, Lisa... they were in danger now. He burst into the hallway, shoving aside a dazed technician who barely noticed him. The ground trembled beneath his boots again, a rhythmic, unnatural shake, like something was moving—no, breathing—beneath them. Gunshots cracked from somewhere deep within Sector Twelve. Rick didn’t stop. His legs pumped faster, the corridor a blur until he skidded to a halt in front of Lisa’s door. His knuckles rapped hard once. “Lisa! It’s me!

It has been quite a while the system contacted Rick. He was even beginning to think the system was something he had imagined. Rick face was pale. The digital message hung in the air like a phantom, glowing faintly in green light—no visible screen, no projection source. Just suspended, like the system itself was embedded into reality. Lisa stepped back, startled. “What the hell is that?” Rick didn’t respond immediately. His eyes remained locked on the message as it slowly began to fade, leaving a trail of eerie silence behind it. The system was back. After weeks—maybe months—of nothing, it was speaking to him again. And it had been watching. “Rick?” Lisa asked again, more cautiously this time. “It’s the system,” he muttered, the weight of it hitting him like a freight train. “It knows I found the files.” “You think it’s...alive?” “I don’t know. But it’s sentient enough to time that message.” He turned to her. “This changes everything.” “Does Gregor know about it?” Rick’s j

Rick moved like a shadow through the dim hallway, every footstep deliberately light as he followed the faint rustling sound that had caught his ear moments earlier. The hairs on the back of his neck stood up—this part of the compound was supposed to be locked down and empty. But he knew what he’d heard.He passed the ammunition room door and turned down a narrow corridor few used anymore. The lights here were faint, flickering with age, barely illuminating the dusty floor and the webs clinging to the corners. He paused near an old utility panel. Something about the wall didn’t sit right—it jutted out just slightly, unevenly with the others.Rick pressed his palm against it and felt a vibration behind the wall. Not the hum of machinery—but the hollow stillness of a space beyond.He ran his fingers along the edge until he found a small indent. He pried it open with the edge of his knife. With a groan, the panel gave way, revealing a narrow entrance cloaked in darkness.Drawing his flas

The creaking floorboards beneath Rick’s boots echoed faintly as he stepped out of the ammunition room, his hand wrapped tightly around the grip of his pistol. The light footsteps he’d heard earlier had vanished, replaced by a thick silence that pressed against his eardrums. He moved slowly, his breathing controlled, eyes scanning every inch of the dim hallway that stretched out ahead of him.He paused near a storage closet, his instincts tugging. Something wasn’t right.Then he saw it—just past a rack of old farming tools, a thin sliver of light seeping through the cracks of what looked like a wall panel. Rick pressed his hand against the wooden surface and gave it a nudge. Nothing. He pushed harder, and the panel gave way with a low groan, revealing a narrow passage behind it.Rick hesitated for only a second before stepping inside.The passageway was narrow and dust-coated, the air thick with age and secrets. He followed the dim path, brushing cobwebs aside, until it opened into a

Rick looked at Lisa as she took off her clothes. He could see some marks visibly seen on her backs and of course her body was looking more of a zombie than a human form. It was whitish but Rick doesn't look like he cared. Lisa looked into the mirror and saw he was staring. " Are you worried or is that a way of showing something else?" Rick turned away, " I am sorry. I didn't mean to startle you." He replied. " It is fine." Lisa replied walking closer to him. She knew Rick had been on his own for a time now and it was normal he felt that way. She got closer to him and gently placed her hands on his cheeks. Her head moved closer to his face for a bit, she was about to kiss him when the door opened with Joel walking in with a school bag slung across his shoulder. " Morning, Dad." He greeted both Lisa and his father. " Morning,son. Are you ready to go to school?" Rick smiled at him and he nodded. " Can aunty Lisa take me to school today?" The boy asked staring at Lisa who

Rick looked at Gregor, " You should be careful when you go shooting." He said with a softer tone. " I am sorry, I didn't mean to harm the kid." Gregor replied. " Please, you are welcome to stay with us. We are nice people and we don't turn people away." He said with a smile. Rick looked at Lisa and back at his face, " Well,if you promise to give us our own space. We promise we won't be a bother." Rick replied. " You are welcome to stay as long as you want." Gregor replied and walked away. Lisa watched as he closed the door behind them and she removed the cloth on her face. " Do you think we are going to be safe here?" Rick looked at Jeol lying on the bed and back at Lisa. " We have to be, there is no place we can run to. Everywhere is swarmed with the crawlers. We need to keep our heads low for a bit." Rick replied walking towards Joel's bedside. " What about, Mark? Do you think he is just going to let you be?" Lisa looked at his face. " I don't give a fuck about him. I think

Rick fell to the ground beside Joel, shouting his name as the little kid closed his eyes slowly. "I am sorry; I didn't mean to. I thought.." The man looked scared. "Hurry; we have a medic in the community," he said, leading the way. Without wasting time, Rick carried Joel, and the race began to save his life. "Hang on, Joel. We are almost there." Rick said each time, looking at Joel and wincing in pain. They got to the front gate, and it was immediately opened, with Rick running through. The man shouted and was given an emergency signal, and some nurses ran out of a makeshift hospital. They immediately carried Joel away into the theater once again to be operated on. Rick looked at the man who was looking worried. He wanted to pounce on him. "Are you telling me you didn't know you were shooting a kid?" He shoutedMany people were looking at Rick, who was losing his coolness. It was the second time Joel had been treated for a gunshot wound. "We can't afford to make an enemy right now

Martha looked at Rick as she looked back at Mark. "I am pregnant, Rick. Why don't we let this die down?" She said it slowly and with teary eyes. Before she could finish her words, a zombie walked in and bit Martha on the neck. Rick stood still while Mark shouted and ran towards her, trying to save her. Without wasting time, Rick grabbed Joel, and they ran out of the building. They tried to avoid most of the people who are now being bit by zombies. They shouted in pain as they turned. Rico, Lisa and Joel, who are now the only surviving members of the community, were able to walk out alive without the bite. "Where do we go from here?" Lisa looked at Rick, who had a bit of a worried look. His life was a mess, with his wife being bitten and his best friend becoming a zombie. "I don't know. The system charged me with the mission of locating Grimagar, and I must. I don't know why, but I think he owes me." Rick replied "Why don't we first get to safety?" Lisa looked up, and the skies were
