2022-09-05 02:54:11Indeed this boy was harmless and somewhat coward because he let fear rule him, well he couldn't be blamed when strange things were happening. Ethan scratched his face which was itching and suddenly stucked his eyes on the old man who was busy creating weapons for protection possibly. He glanced at the terrified kids who did their best to stuff food into their mouth while silent tears flowed freely. Excusing himself to the bathroom, he stood by the vanity unit and stared at the mirror, his reflection suddenly laughed at him as its eyeball darken, it's lips poured out blood. Ethan fell to the ground and moved back scared by his own image.
"Who are you!" He asked attempting to stand up and his reflection laughed.
"I am you, isn't this what you always wanted? Humans should vanish, they left us to suffer, nobody cares!". It snarled and Ethan stared shocked that he was talking with himself.
"Stay away from me!" He responded closing his ears from listening.
"You can't change the fact, let go and join force with me, if we become monsters, you can rule the world!" It whispered as blood drooled from its nose. Ethan was frit as he yelled and his reflection vanished. The old man quickly took a spear and gun, wheeled to the bathroom wondering if Ethan had encountered a monster or was becoming one.
THE GROUND FLOOR.
Footstep approached them as everyone had an instrument to protect them even though they weren't as brave as they appeared, it was still best they stocked together. The footstep was becoming loud as the firefighter rushed downstairs with two more occupants, she had her extinguisher as she could see that the neighbors down here were pointing weapons towards the lobby where footsteps could be heard. After a while of waiting in anticipation, Fidel happen to be the one, he didn't look harmed nor worn out as he was perfectly fine. There was a bit relief amongst them as he walked pass them towards the firefighter.
"Please did you find my sister?" He asked staring at the stairs and she shook her head. Everyone here looked despair worried over their loved ones but they needed to save themselves first. The firefighter walked back ensuring that she would return with his sister and he thanked her. He motioned to the two occupants to take a seat as he observed everyone over here.
"I wish I wasn't born!" Ken began as everywhere seemed silent and suddenly Agatha ran towards the gate screaming that her daughter was somewhere close by and coming towards her. It was shocking that the GPS tracker was still on which made her locate her daughter's whereabout. Agatha was trying to get the gates opened while screaming that someone should save her daughter.
"She's crazy, all connection are cut off, how would she be heading our way?" Rodger snapped as two men ran hold Agatha back. Fidel took a step forward to scrutinize what was happening outside, he could see a girl covered in blood running from a distance and calling out to her mother. The coast seem clear but he couldn't trust the sudden silence, his mind was void of what to say exactly because it wasn't safe to step outside besides, monster could just be by the corner.
"What should we do Fidel?" Mrs Choi asked terrified but he wasn't saying anything. He was their leader now and they could only do as he said but why was he silent? There was an uproar amongst themselves as none was willing to go out except Agatha but she was held back. A young soldier who was among them took it upon himself to save her and immediately he ran after her, a monster tore him along with the student. Fidel swallowed hard and stepped back as he gave orders that they should close the gates but Agatha slapped him yelling that he was at fault. Everything happened so quickly as the woman cried out to his hearing that he was evil to have left her daughter to die.
"Do you want everyone to die!" He barked and then sigh knowing that he was screaming for his elder. There was silence as this woman collasped immediately he said that quickly, two women took her to a room to help recover as it happen to be a shock to the weary lady. Deep in his heart, he felt sad too but there was no way they could save the child because she was a bait. He observed the few who were on the ground floor and could see fear and hunger written on their faces.
"We all might die out of starvation" Rodger mused as he glanced at the grocery shop which he sat beside, it was locked and the only way to get access was by breaking in but he shoved his face away as soon as he met Fidel's reflection which appeared on the glass door. He was staring at the old man who looked like one who was ready to break in if not controlled besides it's owner was inside with his wife and not willing to help as he requested for money before handing over anything.
"Ollie!" Fidel called and the boy jumped up from where he sat, he was a delivery boy and had come over to deliver goodies to an occupant in this building, he barely survived and found himself here craving to survive.
"See to it that we got food supplies..."
"What? But I can't it's scary" he cuts in hiding his face with a book he had on his hand. He knew that getting food supplies could mean going through a lot of monsters in this building to the 11th floor where another grocery shop could be found.
"You're not going alone" Fidel beckoned as his eyes met with Ken who was terrified and praying that his name wasn't mentioned. He suddenly hurried up to the guard room where all CCTV footages were, it had different screens that shows the corridors, entrance and outside of this building. His intentions was to pass a message accross for all those survivors in the building.

Demon fang mountain Countless military trucks and armoured tanks with the AADAF central military base logo could be seen making their way over the rugged mountain terrain. Despite how bad the road was,the vehicles hardly shook all thanks to how well designed they were. At a single glance there were about thirty vehicles here! “Halt! Where here." Inside the drivers compartment of each of the vehicles General Lebronsky's voice could be heard causing every car to come to a stop. “Fall into formation now!" Giving the next order,the soldiers in each of the trucks quickly rushed out of the vehicles before falling into neat formations. Clearly they had practiced this for a while now. Walking out of the military jeep that he was in , General Lebronsky along with the other powermasters from the volunteering camps made their way over. “Men…were here. This is the lair of the Xenogenic Alpha blade. I'm sure that your leaders have already explained the situation to you so I won't

Afternoon. The time of the day when the sun was at its peak. Due to the special geography of Barnes city and it's environs it received a lot of sun daily. The highest temperature recorded in the day had once reached a staggering 41 degrees Celsius! While today's temperature wasn't that high it was still hot enough to cause one to sweat bullets. With how hot everywhere was the best thing to do right now would be to sleep and that was what the sentrys of the AADAF base were currently doing. While you might accuse them of slacking off on duty they couldn't really be blamed. Furthermore,the probably wouldn't have anything to do since the monsters that were supposed to attack them would be busy battling the Hellstrike expedition force so they really wouldn't have much to do. The strike force had left the camp over two hours ago and by now they should just be approaching the mountain range,the battle that would decide if humans could continue settling around this area would soon begi

Inside the AADAF central base. The sounds of equipment and artillery being moved around could be heard in the base. Countless personnel were on ground to direct and coordinate the activities currently ongoing. WOOSH, WOOSH, WOOSH! Over a dozen armoured vans wheezed by as they drove towards a mini parking lot where they halted while military grade trucks reversed so that the ammunitions and supplies could be placed in them. Operation Hellstrike commenced today! Well technically not today as it had started ever since General Lebronsky first tabled the idea. However,in a sense it was still right as this was the first time that something tangible would be done. Previously the only thing being done was just preparations,today was the day that they would really advance to put the operation in motion. “Today finally came!" Standing at the edge of the window of the finally completed command center general Lebronsky muttered under his breath as he watched the proceedings bel

On the highway leading out of Barnes city,a truck could be seen rushing past the buildings . There was a black motorcycle in the back while four people consisting of three men and a lady sat surrounding it. Inside the truck there were two men,one driving while the other was well not really doing anything bringing the total to six. Suddenly from one of the abandoned houses on the side of the road a tiger like monster suddenly jumped out with the intention of ambushing the truck. However,before it could even step on the asphalt,there was a bang and it fell on the spot having received a bullet to the head. Blowing the smoke off the tip of the gun,the shooter proceeded to place the weapon by his side while watching the number faces of his co travellers. As you might have guessed,the group was none other than Ethan and the five man group from earlier in the day. They were currently travelling together to the AADAF central base. Concerning the event that happened in the morning,

“Here this should be the place right? Looks like a nice spot.” Followed by the rumbling sounds of an engine dying off a black a motorcycle stopped at the entrance of the Freetown convienence store. Taking off the helmet,the rider turned out to be none other than Ethan. “Luckily I was able to get here before nightfall.” By now the sun had just fully set and everywhere had gone dark. He really was lucky. After removing the key from the ignition and ensuring that everything was set,he started to make his way into the store but not before grabbing his weapons. Pushing the double glass doors open,he entered with utmost caution while gripping the saber with both hands,the sniper rifle on his back. Taking slow steps to minimize the noise from stepping on the shattered glass he soon fully entered. There was no way anything would catch him off guard like this! After entering though it seemed like there was nothing to worry about as there was no sign of a monster in the vicinit

On a free express highway a dumb looking monster that looked like an dodo but with four legs stood in one of the bushes by the side of the road while glaring at its own reflection in a puddle of water. Today was the fourth day since it had last eaten and right now it was not an exaggeration to say that it could eat anything. While it could go out hunting,it dared not to as most of the monsters out there were stronger than it. It was just a rogue tier,venturing near them would be just like offering itself up for dinner! Thus it had devised this method of lying in wait by the roadside just to ambush it's unknowing prey and it was working out pretty fine as it git more food to eat. Ever since it had started this method it couldn't help but feel continuous pride in itself for devising this method. And it's prey you might ask? Humans of course!Since it couldn't hunt other monsters since they were stronger than it humans were the only meal it could affor-cough hunt!The
