Low sounds of machinery filled the factory, including squelching sounds that made Derek begin to wonder.'What were they eating?’On their way to the place they saw nothing but carnivorous plants and bones that could get broken effortlessly since they had been dried down to the weakest stage.“I think that one saw us,” Ethan gently tapped Derek's shoulder while pointing towards one of the creatures on the opposite side, close to broken windows that had melted along with certain metal rods.The screeching sound from earlier just happened to be something Derek and his clan had to get used to, given that they had heard it time and time again, and these creature…they don't look like they are trying to signal one another.After thorough inspection of the place Derek waved his hand forward, into the building, and of course he did that by walking in first with gentle steps.“One wrong move and we're dead, tell them as they walk in,” Derek whispered to Molly who had been told to remain at the

“What the heck?!” Natasha hissed, clearly angered. “Solid shit this time around!”She joined the others in the room with her fingers trembling clearly to the point where her phone almost fell off. Even though they did come up with something to stop the relentless raining of igneous rocks, how were they going to stop the noise that was going to be produced from the continuous clashing of the igneous rock against their shelter.'Was this shelter built only to stop the rain?’ Joshua thought to himself while staring at the outside world through his window.“There's a way to get to the roof right?” Matthias asked in a calm tone. One that completely contradicted that of Natasha whose breathing was audible enough for everyone seated there to hear.'What if there was one? What was he going to do about that?’ A low scoff escaped Joshua's lips. Discouraging someone was the last thing he wanted to do at that point, but he was also a repairman before his life suddenly changed overnight.He had

The first sound was not even the impact, it was the terrifying whistling sound that came along with the rocks as it sliced through the air above Derek and his clan.A sudden gasp clashed with the sound of the forthcoming rocks, and for a heartbeat they looked away, but it was not for long.“Oh, thank God I don't have to carry you any more,” Andrew took off Theodore's arm with a huge sigh.Slowly, Theodore was able to stand as everything started to get clear before his eyes slowly, except for one thing.The rocks.He looked back at the rest of the clan members, then at the sky, and all he could think of at that moment was, ‘why the hell are they still standing there?’Lucas was the first person he reached for, and he threw Derek's second hand against his own shoulder.“Get away from it!” Finally, there was something louder than what kept igniting their fears, and that was Theodore's voice. However, even he himself could not hide the fear in his voice.“All you need to do is to go in t

“Urghhh…!” Brandon's face twisted in pain as his back slammed against the floor with enough force to leave him momentarily stunned.“I…I'm sorry,” the boy seemed to be younger than Brandon, and his legs trembled for a second as he thought of walking towards Brandon, but another thought told him it might not end well.“William!” Lauren's voice cut through Brandon's continuous groan like a sharp-edged sword. She looked at the lad, then Brandon whose eyes were now fixed on the ceiling. Although he remained in the same position. Approaching footsteps filled the sparring room for a while, and he stopped before Lauren who had her hands behind her, even so, he was not fast enough to stop her hands that smacked the side of his face, and with cold eyes she said to him.“How many times do I have to tell you that you don't apologize for victories?”“Countless times,” he answered with a hardened jaw.She scoffed, while shifting her gaze to Brandon, and her expression shifted from stern to worr

Ari was seated on the bed with a small paper photograph, drawing a circle around it with her index. A photo of herself and someone she'd call her brother.'It's getting really hard over here,’ she sniffled with the photo still in her hands.“Really hard without you I must say,” this time, she made sure those words were loud enough since the previous seemed like she had been muttering it in her head like she was scared. Genuinely, she was scared. Scared of everything that had been unfolding within the last few days but still, outside that door, outside the place she called shelter, she had to mask her fears.“I umm, I promised myself I won't cry until I'm done with this endless cycle of mission, apocalypse, and stupid discussions, but the truth is…”It was for sure the very part everyone was avoiding, but it was just like those random discussions they usually have every night.“I don't even know if I'm going to make it out of here.”While she was still lost in thoughts and what seemed
