The helicopter soared higher into the pale morning sky. Below it stretched a world broken beyond recognition — a graveyard of metal, smoke, and silence.William sat by the window, watching the horizon blur past. From this height, the ruins of the once-living cities looked like scars across the earth. Black smoke still rose from collapsed buildings, and roads were split wide open as though the ground itself had groaned in agony.No matter how many times he looked down, it never felt real. It was as if the whole world had died overnight, leaving only chaos behind.Beside him, Brandon stared through the opposite window, his jaw tight. “Hard to believe this was once home,” he muttered, his deep voice breaking the stillness in the cabin.Anita, seated near the front, adjusted her scope and looked down through it, her sharp eyes scanning the destroyed land. “You can still see them,” she said softly. “The monsters.”William leaned closer to the window.Down below, chaos unfolded like a night

The next morning arrived faster than expected.The golden rays of dawn slipped through the cracks of William’s window, touching his face gently. His eyes opened, and for a moment, he stared at the ceiling in silence. The distant sounds of footsteps and morning activity in the shelter reminded him that it wasn’t just another peaceful morning. Today was different. Today, they would finally set out to end everything.He rose slowly from the bed, his mind calm but steady. He walked into the small bathroom beside his room and turned on the water. The cold drops hit his skin, running down like tiny blades. He washed away the traces of the night before, but not the memory of Victoria’s soft voice when she came to visit him. She had left soon after, without saying much, only a few quiet words before slipping away like a shadow.After his bath, William stood before the mirror. His reflection looked back at him — strong, calm, and unreadable. His eyes carried the weight of countless battles,

The air that night was filled with the smell of roasted food, smoke, and laughter.For the first time in months, the settlement wasn’t drowned in fear.Men and women gathered around open fires, eating and talking loudly while children danced and sang around them.It was a night of celebration — one that marked the defeat of the Desert Eagle Queen and the arrival of their savior.General Balock had ordered extra food to be shared among everyone.Huge pots of soup were carried around, bread was distributed in baskets, and the smell of cooked meat filled the night air.People clapped and raised their cups to the sky, cheering the same name over and over again.“William! To the hero of tonight!”Even the guards standing on the fences smiled for the first time in days.The darkness outside didn’t seem as frightening anymore, not after what they had witnessed earlier.William sat quietly near the edge of the campfire, surrounded by the seekers.Victoria sat beside him, her golden hair shini

The Desert Eagle Queen shrieked again, her cry carrying over the entire land. The winds grew stronger, ripping through roofs and shattering windows. soldiers on the fences struggled to stand, some falling to their knees under the immense pressure of her power.But William stood in the middle of it all, unshaken. His grip on his sword tightened as flames began to stir faintly around his body. The heat rose quickly, glowing brighter with each passing second.The people watching from inside the settlement began whispering among themselves.“It’s him…” one soldier muttered, holding onto his bow tightly. “The hero…”“He fought the Desert Eagle King and lived,” another added, his eyes wide with hope.Their voices trembled, yet it was filled with belief as they saw William’s body slowly ignite.The fire expanded, wrapping his entire figure in blazing flames. His armor burned with an otherworldly glow, crimson and gold streaks flowing across it like molten lava. His sword, once ordinary ste

William sat down quietly on the chair before the large desk, his eyes fixed on the elderly man before him. General Balock leaned back slightly, his arms resting firmly on the armrest of his chair as he studied William. The faint light from the lamp on the desk glowed over his stern features, highlighting the sharp lines of a man who had lived through countless battles.For a few seconds, silence stretched between them. It wasn’t an uncomfortable silence, but one that carried weight, as though the General was measuring William’s presence carefully. Finally, the old soldier spoke.“You must have already seen it,” Balock began, his voice low yet steady, “this settlement is one of the last strongholds in this region. We’ve held on for this long, but every day feels like a war against time and death itself.”William nodded calmly. “Yes. I noticed the soldiers on the fences and the families inside. You’ve built something strong here.”Balock’s lips curved faintly, almost as though the words

The sun was dipping slowly into the horizon when William followed Victoria and the others deeper into the shelter. The air carried a calmer feel compared to the outside world. The sound of children laughing, women cooking, and men talking among themselves gave the place a sense of life that had long been forgotten.Victoria and her companions guided William through the crowded pathways until they finally reached a row of houses built with salvaged wood and metal. Each of the homes seemed patched together from scraps, but the families inside looked grateful to have walls above their heads.As they reached the first house, a group of people rushed out. Victoria’s mother, a woman with gray streaks in her brown hair, immediately pulled her daughter into a warm embrace. Her eyes watered as she whispered words of relief. “Thank heavens you came back alive… I thought I lost you, Victoria.”“Mother, I’m fine,” Victoria smiled as she reassured her, then she turned to point at William. “It was
