Zaria Dove A New Problem
"I need two teams of experts to begin preparations for the burial of the deceased. Get ready for a small memorial service," I instructed. “We can’t leave our dead like that!” "But... but... what about the city?" Caleb inquired. "We may have to consider starting anew, somewhere else," I replied, my gaze falling downward. A soldier spoke up, "Are you suggesting that we abandon our home?" "Come here," I beckoned him over. As he approached, I led him to the corner of the Whisper's Oasis. "Take a look," I pointed towards the city, now reduced to ruins. "The power station has been destroyed, the humidity is increasing, and who knows for what purpose creepers enter the city, maybe they planted bombs everywhere, or maybe they have spreaded all across the city spreading virus everywhere. What then? More suffering? Sickness? Pain? More death? And let's not forget, even if you manage to survive all of that..." I paused, allowing the weight of my words to sink in. "One day, you could be sl
Zaria Dove Rain
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, feeling a rush of emotions overwhelm me. Tears streamed down my face, a mixture of sadness, relief, and guilt. Kai rushed over to me, sensing my distress. I let out a cry, "They snatched my son from me and I can understand whether to mourn his death or the fact that I was responsible the one who killed him." As I wiped away my tears, Kai spoke softly, "Tell me, what else is troubling you?" "She has forgiven me for killing Nina!, but I can't bring myself to accept that forgiveness." I believed I didn't deserve it. Kai embraced me, "You are punishing yourself unnecessarily. What happened was not your fault and you didn't had any intention to kill them! She did a right thing forgiving you, and so should you!" He embrace me. "I've brought nothing but pure suffering for them, they'd been better off without me." I blamed myself for the destruction that had befallen the city. But Kai urged "Look closely at the people's faces, see the joy and won

"I am sorry!" I apologized once more in the normal volume, but she continued to stare at me, prompting me to whisper, "Alright, alright!" "What's going on here?" I whispered this time. "This has been the situation here for as long as I can remember," she remarked, referring to the city. "I'm sorry," she added, "but if I hadn't instructed you to remain silent, we would all be in trouble." She grabbed a glass and poured water into it, while the glass tilted. Confused, I gazed at her. "If I hadn't done it this way, it would have made noise," she explained. "What exactly are you all afraid of? Have the creepers invaded this place?" I inquired. "Creepers?" She looked at me puzzled. "Yes, those pale-skinned creatures," I clarified. "No, we've been eliminating them for as long as we can remember. That's not what we fear," she responded. "Then what is it that you fear?" I insisted to know, just as we heard a woman calling out for someone. "Angus?" she called out, her voice filled w
Zaria Dove The Lost Group
"The immortals you mentioned must have come about much later.When Asher successfully turned us into immortals and immune beings, he had already realized William's true intentions. When he sent us away, he claimed that we had died," she revealed."But how did you end up here?" I inquired. "And why didn't you turn out to be as violent as the creepers and the immortals?""We weren't forcefully revived like the others. We were already alive, but we were a group of sick individuals. As for your first question, there was a bus full of us.We were ambushed during our journey, and our bus tumbled down the mountainside, leaving us with severe injuries.A kind woman offered us refuge in this place.Time went by, and we discovered that there were individuals hired to kill us.The mastermind behind this plot remains unknown to us.Despite the circumstances, we accepted the new life here, situated at the crossroads of two cities.When the nuclear disaster struck, this area wasn't affected directl
Zaria Dove Mother Matriarch
We were aware that this disturbing vision was produced by our own minds, a result of the strange frequency released through her scream, which made it challenging to maintain focus.Once I regained my vision, I surveyed my surroundings and noticed the woman standing beside a pile of lifeless bodies."Do you know where Angus is?" she inquired, her gaze fixed upon me.Her eyes were filled with tears, causing my heart to be overwhelmed with sorrow. "He was playing right there!" She pointed toward the entrance of the caves."I prepared a salad for him, but he didn't like it. I scolded him, and he became upset!Please, find him and let him know that I will roast a turkey for him!" She sat down and pleaded with her hands clasped together."Please, I beg you, find him and tell him that I will never cook salad again." She wiped away her tears and scanned the area, shouting at the top of her lungs, "Angus! Please return, I promise there will be no more salad!" Her cries weighed heavily on our h
Zaria Dove Matriarch's Redemption
She fell to her knees and clutched onto my feet. "Please, take me to my son!" she pleaded."Lily, I'm sorry, but your son won't come back to you, and deep down, you know that too," I said, taking a seat.Her anger began to rise again, but I gently held her hands. It felt like grasping onto a rusted metal bar, fragile and on the verge of breaking with the slightest touch."I understand how it feels to be responsible for your child's death," I couldn't hold back my tears any longer. "A few months ago, some truly terrible people forced me to kill my own son.I had no idea he was my son at the time. If I had known, I would have willingly sacrificed myself instead," I looked into her eyes and saw her sorrow."So believe me when I say this, I understand your pain more than anyone else ever could. While you may believe you caused his death, the truth is that you couldn't have stopped it from happening."Finally, she broke down in tears. "He loved roasted turkey, and that day I told him we di
Zaria Dove On My Way
People were still not willing to accept her apology, so they brought me to their home and demanded that I punish her. "Listen, I understand that she took your children, but she didn't harm them. Her powers were beyond her control, and it was her fear that controlled her. You may think that you will forever despise her, but remember, you have your children back while she may never have hers again." I managed to reason with them. They eventually forgave her, but she wouldn't be staying there. I planned to take her to Veronica, but only after I find Wania.In the meantime, Lily would stay with these people. As we prepared to leave, Amelia grabbed my arm and led me to a corner. "I don't know how we can ever repay you!" she exclaimed with a smile. "You don't need to repay me. I simply did what was right, and anyone would have done the same," I replied, returning the smile. "No one else would have done what you did. We never would have," she admitted with a shrug. "As promised, I wil
Zaria Dove A New Face
Then Kai mentioned "Because she is invisible" then right after that a missile suddenly appeared out of nowhere and struck the right wing of our vehicle.The vehicle began to tumble through the air, leading to a crash that happened in the blink of an eye.For a brief moment, we kept sliding down a hill, and then with a sudden impact, I witnessed Kai bursting through the windshield, followed by the GPS device flying toward my face.And then... everything went black!After some time, I regained consciousness, feeling completely healed but finding myself alone in an unfamiliar place.It was a large, round cage with vertical bars stretching endlessly, without any visible door or means of escape.The cage was big enough to hold up to 30 people at once, yet there I was, all by myself but luckily unbound.The ceiling was illuminated by a large, bright bulb that cast light over the entire area. One side of the cage featured a small opening, resembling a rat hole but wider, likely used for deli
