  • CHAPTER 16 ~ FORGING BLACKWATCH

    The chaotic and blood-soaked events of the midnight rescue operation had finally given way to a perfectly still and silent morning.Riccardo sat alone on the edge of his comfortable bed inside the luxury penthouse, staring blankly at the massive floor-to-ceiling window as the pale gray light of early dawn began to slowly bleed across the burning horizon of Makati City.His body was entirely exhausted, his tactical uniform still smelled faintly of cordite and thick smoke, and his mind was completely overwhelmed by the profound weight of his recent decisions. However, he absolutely could not afford the luxury of sleep just yet. He needed to fully understand his current operational capacity before the terrified survivors downstairs finally woke up.He aggressively rubbed his tired eyes and swiped his hand through the empty air to summon the glowing blue System interface."Show me my current status," Riccardo whispered to the quiet room.[ HOST: RICCARDO GONZALES ][ LEVEL: 10 ][ SURVIVA

  • CHAPTER 15 ~ COMMANDER'S SANCTUARY

    Riccardo firmly planted his heavy combat boots onto the bloodstained concrete of the university roof and completely focused his absolute attention on the terrifying apex predator violently charging directly toward his defensive line. The massive biological nightmare was entirely focused on the noisy aircraft ascending above them, and its highly muscular legs aggressively coiled as it prepared to launch its heavy body directly into the air to pull the helicopter back down. Riccardo knew with absolute certainty that he could not possibly allow the creature to execute that devastating leap."Echo Actual, we need to completely blind that massive bastard right now," Riccardo commanded loudly over the chaotic noise of the swirling winds. "Aim directly for its eyes and the exposed joints to actively disrupt its upward momentum."Captain Vance and his elite Delta Force operatives immediately executed the precise tactical order without a single fraction of a second of hesitation. They unleashe

  • CHAPTER 14 ~ THE WEIGHT OF SALVATION

    The narrow concrete stairwell of the Technological Engineering Institute violently echoed with the terrifying sounds of a world coming completely undone.Riccardo Gonzales moved methodically up the dark steps with his heavily suppressed carbine raised securely to his shoulder. He formed the absolute center of a highly impenetrable moving fortress comprised entirely of elite Delta Force operatives.The terrifying phantoms of Echo Actual surrounded the eleven terrified teenage students in a perfect circular defensive perimeter, smoothly pushing the frightened civilians upward toward the promise of the dark roof.The incredibly heavy and rhythmic thud of their tactical boots hitting the concrete stairs provided a completely stark contrast to the horrific and chaotic sounds of frantic scratching and guttural moaning actively rising from the compromised ground floor directly below them.Lucia gripped her best friend Denise tightly by the hand and stayed completely glued to her older brothe

  • CHAPTER 13 ~ JUDGEMENT IN THE DARK

    The deafening and entirely roar of the heavy aerial minigun completely consumed the world outside the reinforced windows of Classroom 2-C. The massive vibration heavily rattled the metal blinds and aggressively shook the thick wooden desks pressed tightly against the classroom door.Inside the suffocating darkness of the room, Nicola slowly lifted his head from the dirty linoleum floor and listened intently to the shifting environment. The terrifying and frantic scratching that had been violently assaulting the wooden door for the past twelve hours had completely ceased. The massive swarm of infected walkers had completely abandoned their desperate attempt to breach the classroom, entirely drawn away by the deafening noise and brilliant light of the military helicopter actively destroying their ranks in the courtyard below.Nicola slowly pushed himself up from the ground and casually brushed the accumulated dust off his expensive uniform trousers. His two muscular cronies, Giovanni an

  • CHAPTER 12 ~ UNEXPECTED HERO

    The darkness inside Classroom 2-C felt significantly thicker and vastly heavier than the suffocatingly humid air clinging desperately to their trembling skin.Lucia Gonzales sat completely huddled beneath the massive oak structure of the teacher's heavy desk with her bruised knees pulled tightly against her chest, while her closest friends Denise and Angela pressed their shaking bodies securely against her sides for basic human comfort.The three exhausted teenage girls remained completely silent as they listened intently to the terrifying symphony of distant human screams and violently shattering glass actively echoing from the burning city directly outside their reinforced windows.The abrupt and violent transition from a perfectly normal and boring school day into a complete biological nightmare of apocalyptic proportions had happened so incredibly fast that their exhausted minds were still actively struggling to properly process the horrific reality of their entirely doomed situat

  • CHAPTER 11 ~ THE ANGEL EXTRACTION

    The deafening roar of the spinning helicopter rotors completely drowned out the ambient sounds of the burning city as Riccardo stood firmly on the wind-swept concrete roof of Tower A. The two matte black Pave Hawk helicopters were actively idling on the designated landing pads while their massive blades aggressively chopped through the thick night air.Lieutenant Gravina stood directly in front of the idling aircraft and seamlessly projected a highly detailed three-dimensional schematic of the Technological Engineering Institute University directly from his wrist computer onto the dark concrete floor. The glowing blue hologram perfectly displayed the sprawling academic campus, and Gravina used a gloved finger to highlight the specific administrative building where Lucia was currently trapped."We need to finalize the precise operational parameters before we officially board the aircraft," Gravina announced while raising his heavily modulated voice to be clearly heard over the screamin
