Zaria Dove A Date
He described himself as wearing a red and black flannel shirt, so I dressed up and went to the restaurant."Veronica couldn't contain her laughter as she continued, "As he had described, he was indeed wearing a red and black flannel shirt, but he turned out to be almost as old as my father!"I turned around in an attempt to escape, but he called out my name.Without hesitation, I swiftly turned back and forced a grin. His gaze remained fixed on me as he stood up and offered me a seat.I was in search of a companion, but I was not desperate enough to date an older gentleman.In a matter of seconds, I made a decision and began limping towards him.His smile faded, and his face turned pale, as if he had just seen a ghost.He sat down and stood up a few times throughout our lunch, and it we mostly remained quiet. I chewed my food with a loud chapping sound and had my drink, gulping it down as if I were a wild creature, causing the liquid to cascade down from my mouth.Poor guy lost his a
Zaria Dove Off We Go!
I turned around, closing my eyes tightly, my heart racing with fear. "If it means catching a glimpse of you, I willingly give you permission," I whispered.His warm breath tickled my neck as his hand wrapped around my waist, holding me firmly.Pulling me closer, he brought his mouth close to my ear and softly kissed me."It's going to hurt," he murmured.I held onto his hand, which was still tightly gripping my stomach, preparing myself for what was to come.His breath grew heavier, surrounding me with warmth, and in an instant, I felt numbness take over. Then, I heard him whisper again."I wish we had more time!" He exclaimed, feeling a sudden prick on the lower left side of my neck.As I groaned in pain, I realized something was forcefully being inserted into my flesh, like a slow bullet.In that moment, I continued to cling onto his hand, gripping it even tighter.He responded by wrapping his other hand around my shoulder, holding onto me tightly.His whispered words reached my ear
Zaria Dove Back to The Harbor
A bunch of creepers ran before those soldiers, but somehow the soldiers managed to escape before the creepers reached them. They assumed I had left as well, poor guys had no clue I was right under their nose, I was concealed behind a hut. I stealthily made my way around it and sprinted towards the towering hills. This area was clear. I spotted a creeper on patrol, and without hesitation, I jumped on him from behind and steadily sliced his throat. While I was occupied here, Enzo and Kai made their way to the command center to check on the progress. Enzo expressed his concern by asking, "Why is she on this mission again?" "She made a deal with Asher, and here's a secret for you - she's on that island to retrieve a box we spotted during our previous visit," Kai replied. Enzo looked at him with confusion, "A box?" As they finally arrived at the command center, they found Veronica looking confused and tense. "What's the matter?" Kai inquired. "Her tracker is misbehaving!" Veronic
Zaria Dove The Pit
While I was still processing, Kai diagnosed some strange behavior on the tracker's data.He took some time to figure out that it was a timer. "This bastard planted a time bomb in her body! The timer has just begun." Kai exclaimed, smashing the table in anger."How long do we have?" Enzo asked."Not very long!" Kai answered.Veronica, overwhelmed with guilt that she wasn't even responsible for, asked, "What are we going to do now?"Enzo inquired, "You mentioned we have a supporting hologram in our tracker.Does the anonymous tracker have the same capability? and can you replace that hologram with a recorded message?""I think I can!" Kai responded.Concerned, Enzo asked, "Will they notice if we try to contact her through this?""No, it's just a time bomb and a tracker," Kai reassured. "What's your plan?" he asked."Asher is a lunatic. He must have calculated the timing perfectly, knowing when she would reach Jaga... freak or whatever it's called.Once she reaches the jaguar, the bomb w
Zaria Dove Jaganod
I then aimed at the chain holding the other cage and took a shot, causing the chain to snap and the cage to drop down to the ground.Meanwhile, the other cage on which I was standing was descending towards the ground, but luckily, it fell from a slightly lower height because the chain slowed it down.Still, I rolled down and fell to the ground, losing my grip on my gun.The pit was dark and rocky, but the burning hot light from the tunnel illuminated this dark cave.I quickly got back on my feet and retrieved my gun.Suddenly, Kai managed to hack into the tracker and contacted me through Enzo."There's a tracker in your body, where you were shot during the second phase, and it's not just a tracker but also a time bomb.Even though it may seem small, it can cause significant damage!" he warned."What?" I was confused, trying to understand how and when did they do it, then I realized that I was never shot, they just made me feel that way."No matter what, don't apply pressure to it, or
Zaria Dove The Origin of The Creepers
She then took out a small, gadget similar to a handheld mirror but without a frame, that played a video.Asher stood at the center of the stage, pretending to be devastated."With a heavy heart, I regret to inform you of the tragic passing of our only ray of hope, Zaria Dove!" he sniffled."She fearlessly ventured into the clutches of death itself to bring us the cure for this illness.However, her slightest mistake awakened our ancient foe, an enemy banished from our lands due to the thunderstorm we conjured.You see, this is why I never risk a woman's life. She was our responsibility and she lost her battle against something even a man fears to confront."After a brief pause, he continued."Yes, the creepers have returned. Her mistake created a path for them to enter our city.I have ordered my brave soldiers to isolate the citizens and enforce a strict curfew.Close your doors, keep them tightly shut, and do not open them, even if your loved ones are among the those creepers or the
Zaria Dove Diving Deep
On the next page, it said, "Veronica has chosen the password for self-destruction of this place.I'm writing it down so I can remember it when I leave! The password is Breakout 13!" Below that, there was a scratched arrow pointing to the left.As I turned left, I came face to face with a plain white wall.The entire lab had been shaking this whole time due to the destruction happening in the cave.Suddenly, I felt a strong vibration running down my spine, a clear sign of danger.The vibration grew stronger, as the entire place started to shake violently.A crack started to form on one of the pods in the center, slowly getting bigger.I hurried towards the wall and desperately tried to break through, but my attempts were futile. There was no sign of an exit or door.Feeling helpless, I turned around and saw the man inside the cracked pod opening his eyes, while the rest of his body remained lifeless.I tightly gripped my gun, pointing it at him, as the cracks spread to the other pods.
Zaria Dove The Immortals
"Hey, there's no more water in there!" I warned, keeping my distance. His heavy, growling breath sent shivers down my spine, so I quietly backed away. Unfortunately, I accidentally stepped on a pen, catching his attention. He turned toward me, and even though he appeared to be blind, he could somehow see me. Slowly, he prepared himself to attack me. "I didn't do anything!" I desperately tried to convince him, but his response left me trembling. "That’s not the reason why I want you! There must be something you possess, tears? Sweat... maybe even blood!" He came at me, gripping me so tightly that it felt nearly impossible to escape. It licked my wrist “Hey, stop!” I pushed his face away but he continued to lick my skin, this was making me even more terrified. "Dr. William mentioned that it's easy to bite into a wet skin." He said. I was getting really annoyed by his behavior. In the heat of the moment, I grabbed the gun that had fallen from my hand and forcefully hit him on th

Crazy Theory
Ella was lying on the floor in the corner of the room, her face contorted in pain, her hands gripping the sides of the sheet under her. Her breaths came in labored gasps, her body trembling with the effort. Jennifer and a few others stood around her, their faces tight with worry. The air was thick with tension, the sound of Ella’s cries filling the space.Kai rushed to her side, dropping to his knees beside her. He took her hand in his, his heart breaking at the sight of her in so much pain. “I’m here, Ella. I’m right here,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion.Ella turned her head toward him, her eyes glistening with tears. “Kai,” she gasped, her voice weak but filled with relief. “I…I thought you wouldn’t make it.”“I’m here, love,” he reassured her, squeezing her hand. “I’m not going anywhere.”Jennifer moved closer, her expression serious. “She’s in active labor, Kai. The baby is coming, and we don’t have much time.”Kai nodded, his mind spinning as he tried to focus. He co
What no one expected
As Jennifer struggled to reach Enzo, the tension was visible. When she finally succeeded in connecting with me, her voice brimmed with a mix of joy and nervous energy. “We’re finally connected to the system!” she exclaimed, her excitement spilling through the static of our communication line.A grin spread across my face, and I turned to Kai, who immediately understood what had happened without needing an explanation. My expression said it all.“Enzo?” I called out, trying to connect with him directly. The line was dead silent. My smile vanished as quickly as it had spread, and an uneasy weight settled in my chest. My pulse quickened, each beat echoing in my ears as I glanced nervously at Kai. “He’ll be alright,” he reassured me, his voice steady but strained. Before either of us could take action, a deep, echoing hum filled the air, overpowering even the sound of our racing hearts. The noise was overwhelming, drawing our attention toward the city gates. With the restored power, the
Wrecking Paradise
He pressed himself against the wall, trying to steady his breathing. The ground beneath him groaned, a sharp reminder of the fragile state of the entire building. He couldn’t afford to stop now—not when so much was at stake.Pushing forward, Enzo reached a junction where the stairs split into multiple paths. Consulting his mental map of the city’s layout, he chose the left corridor, knowing it led directly to the control room.As he advanced, the air grew colder, and the flickering lights overhead cast dark shadows.Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his side. Enzo stumbled, clutching his rib as he gasped for breath. He had hit a loose beam that swung down unexpectedly, narrowly missing his head but cutting through his torso.Blood trickled from a small cut, staining his shirt. Ignoring the pain, he pressed on, his strong will fueling his determination.The corridor opened into a vast, open space—the control room. The room was a chaotic mess of shattered consoles, broken screens, and
A Chance of Survival
“No, we can’t retreat!” I shot back, my mind racing. “If we fall back now, we’ll just be leading them to the survivors! Who knows what these things are capable of if they breach the bunker?”The immortal army was unstoppable, their unsettling faces and wide-open mouths still screaming as they marched forward. The situation was dire, and every second felt like we were inching closer to doom. Then, an idea struck me. “We’ll lead them somewhere else instead! Somewhere they won’t follow the others!” Without waiting for a response, I took off running toward the right, motioning for the others to follow.“There are plenty of ruined buildings to the east,” Kai called after me, sprinting to catch up. “We can find cover there, maybe even set a trap!”"Exactly! We just need to buy the rest of the team some time to regroup and bring the right equipment,” I agreed as we bolted toward the Ferric Burg, a place that had once been a bustling district but was now reduced to crumbling ruins after the a
Caught in the Tide
I yelled for everyone to move. "Run!" I shouted, leading the charge as we turned and sprinted away from the impending disaster. But we were too close. The ground shook violently beneath us, the force of the lab’s landing sending a powerful jolt through the battlefield. The shockwave hit us hard, like a giant hand swatting us aside. We flew, bodies tossed into the air like ragdolls, crashing to the ground in a brutal cascade.I groaned, feeling the sharp sting of pain from the fall. My vision blurred for a moment as I pushed myself up, dirt and debris filling the air around me. Many of us survived the impact, but not everyone was so lucky. As I looked around, the grim reality hit me. The number of those who fell, the martyrs—was far greater than the survivors.I pushed myself up from the debris, my body aching as I limped up to my feet. Dust and rubble filled the air, and the sight before me was nothing short of devastating. Those who hadn’t made it halfway to the bunker were crushed,
A Twisted Anomaly
The battlefield was chaos. Screams, explosions, and the endless rain of arrows and bullets filled the air. Bodies fell, and for every enemy I took down, two more seemed to replace them.As soon as Kai entered the control room, Veronica—rushing toward Kai. Her face was pale, eyes wide with panic, clearly overwhelmed by the chaos. She knelt beside him, but he waved her off, his voice hoarse but steady. "I'm not important right now! Get the guns in position, switch their directions, now!"He delivered my message without caring for his own condition.He gripped her shoulders firmly, but not harshly, guiding her to sit down on the seat. His eyes were intense, but his voice softened as he leaned in close, whispering in her ear. "I know this is overwhelming, but you’ve got this. You can do this."Veronica’s hands trembled as she began to adjust the machine gun controls, rotating the turrets to face the incoming enemy forces. It wasn't the first time she was facing a situation of war, but see
An Unseen Threat
"This thing has a heartbeat!" she exclaimed, her voice trembling with unease, her eyes fixed on the screen.I felt my stomach knot, the tension rising with every second. "What if it’s a human? Someone innocent?" My voice cracked, panic creeping into my words."No!" she snapped, her gaze darting between readings. "The heartbeat is… off. Abnormal. It's clocking in at 250 beats per minute. No human, even with a severe condition, could sustain that while moving this fast. This... this is something beyond what we’re ready for." Her fingers hovered over the screen, absorbing more data.Then she froze, her eyes widening. "It’s six feet tall, and only an inch from the barrier!" Her voice wavered. "It... it looks like a plane."I leaned closer, trying to make sense of the silhouette on the display. "A plane? But at that size? Who the hell would build a plane so small?" The shape on the screen did resemble an aircraft, but it was no larger than a child’s toy. Something was very, very wrong.Pan
No Time to Grief
“No, Zaria! It all happened right before our eyes,” Kai said, his voice thick with disbelief. The weight of the moment pulled us together in a tight group hug, but the shock left me frozen. How could this be real? Why would anyone kill Bella? She wouldn’t hurt a soul."No..." I whispered, the denial clawing at my throat. "This can't be happening!" My voice broke into a yell. "How could they kill her? How could—" But my words faded, leaving me breathless, my mind spinning as if the very air had been stolen from me.I pulled away from them, my body trembling. “Prepare! Prepare for battle. We’re going to make him pay!” I demanded, wiping my tear-streaked face with the back of my hand. My rage boosting my strength with every second. I nodded, more to myself than anyone else, as the reality of the situation sank in.“Zaria!” Ella’s voice was soft, her steps cautious as she approached, concern evident on her face. But I reached out first, gripping her shoulders, forcing her to look into my
A new discovery
I dropped everything I was doing and bolted after her, my heart racing. Something had to be wrong. Jennifer was tough, not the type to panic easily. I followed her down the winding path to the bunker, the cool, damp air filling my lungs. As we reached the entrance, a crowd of people had gathered, making a path for me to pass through.“Zaria!” A familiar voice rang out. My dad. He stood there, cleaned up and looking far better than the last time I’d seen him, though his face was still covered with worry. “Thank goodness you’re alright,” he said, pulling me into a quick embrace before stepping aside to let Jennifer lead me deeper inside.“This way,” Jennifer urged, her voice low as she guided me toward a dimly lit corner of the bunker. She stopped in front of a large, rusted wheel embedded in the circular wall—a giant mechanism that looked like it belonged to an old bank vault.“I don’t think Veronica knows anything about this,” Jennifer whispered, her gaze fixed on the wheel. “But it’s
