Chapter 3 - The Hope

I can’t sleep. I just killed that man, how can I sleep? I still can feel his tremble. The image of pain on his eye engraved on my memory. I know it had to be done. But, still. I’ve killed a man. Even though I tried my best to let it go, but my consciousness won’t let it go. My hands are trembling. I never thought taking someone lives will be this hard.

The other things that keep me awakes are questions. What really happen around here? First, those mysterious death. Now, I met a guy who’s still alive even though his body was split to half. I bet his pain was so dreadful. What if my parents are on the same condition? Will I have the heart to kill them? Should I continue this journey or runaway from unknown truth?

Chapter 2 -The Living Dead

Jake woke up only to find out that everything around him was chaotic. Electronics equipments were destroyed. Jake found out that people were dead in some mysterious way and now he was alone. Jake decided to find out his friends and families condition. With that in mind, Jake walked away to the setting sun . . .

It’s been a while since I woke up and found things were not right. The sun has set and stars have come out. The moon is full high in the sky. I can see the way clearly, thanks to the moon. Every single gadget is broken, my watch is not an exception.

Without nothing to count the time, I don’t know how long I’ve walk. My parents’ house and also my friends’ are in the outskirt. It’s kinda far from my apartment. I regret my decision to move from my parent’s house. Well, I thought that they deserve to get their happy life just the two of them, free of worries for their child. And I also want to get independent. But, with this distance... Well, it’s okay back then before today. I could get there by bus. But now, with nothing to ride, it’s just really troublesome. Hhh… I really hope they are fine, survivors just like me.

The scenery around me hasn’t change since I got out from my apartment. Broken cars are all over the road, with some have been burnt. Seems like everything that has electricity on it has been overloaded or something. I’ve been walking for hour, and I still can’t get used to those dead people lying disturbingly all over the place. Those and added with this full moon, things become eerie. I get a goose bump from this situation.

I don’t know how long I’ve walk. One thing that I know is that I walk in the right direction. By the look of my surrounding, I can say that my destination is not far from my current position. A glimpse of light of hope comes out from my heart. My legs are killing me right now. I think I should take a rest.

Chapter 1 - Ressurection

Is this true? That's the first thing that crossed my mind when I open my eyes. I woke at my apartment and realize that something wasn't right. The only thing I could remember was a great pain in my head and I could hear a lot of explosion. Then, everything went black. The next thing that I know is what I see right now.

I'm standing here before the window and really cannot believe what I see now. Smoke coming out from many building around the city. And all the buildings that I can see are decorated by holes. It's look like those buildings being bombed from the inside. My hands shiver from the scene. This scene is real. It just like scene from some war or apocalypse movie.

The next thing I notice is there are no sound at all. No horn, no engine's sound, not even scream and panicking sound you expect from this situation. Nothing at all. I can even hear my own breath and heart beats. This silence create an eerie feeling. I'm hoping there will be some sound, but it's useless. I wonder where are those people?
