  When everyone was telling about their own heroic stories, however, what does it mean? I have got nothing to say, this world exists as it is supposed to be, my story won't end so far.

  I used to dream about such a world, totally free, no limitation, excited and exhilarated. Now look at it, I have lost everything...

  Chapter One

  (Wiliton district, Skyim, May 5, 2026)

  "Wayne! Our baby is crying! I am busy in the kitchen." A woman shouting in the kitchen.

  "Hanging on there, I am on my way." Galen Wayne, 31, firefighter, father of a 10-month-old baby, husband of a pregnant lady.

  "Oh, God! I think I am still not ready to be a father! God, Judy is taking a shit! Oh, so smelly! Help! Ava! Help me!" "Oh Wayne! Come on, you can do it! You have to get ready! We're gonna have another baby, you have to!"

  Holding the baby, Galen is watching TV, a man was bite by a sick dog, and he attacked passers who offered help, rabies won't cause this, it seems that the man got a new kind of virus, the government is still doing research on the man. "Crazy dog, bad luck, so he became a human-dog, ha ha." Wayne laughed.

  (Bizarre event researching center, Skye district, Skyim, October 26, 2026)

  "This is Thomas Field, the patient is still in a crazy condition, biting everything alive, I have tried many kinds of vaccine but in vain. Here what I am facing is a totally new virus, once it is out, I wonder what disaster will happen, I apply for a secret, protective dispelling."

  Thomas Field, 34, doctor, has a girlfriend who is living in Cloud City right now.

  "Application failed." Showing on the screen.

  "Damn!" Shouted by Thomas.

  "Hey, calm down, you worried too much, the patient is now in good station. I remember today is your girlfriend's birthday right! Come on, you gonna fly back to Cloudim before 12pm tonight. Let me take care of the man." Said Ben, Thomas's colleague.

  "Thank you buddy, I almost forgot. Be careful." Field goes out to change his cloth.

  The man is lying still in the quarantine, no breathe, no motion. Ben is confused 'cause it still has heart beats!

  "Okay, such a strange thing. I gonna go inside and check." Ben wears gowns, gloes and masks and opens the gate?

  "Oh God NO!!!"(Screaming)

  (Loius district, Starim, December 10, 2026)

  "Sir, we found a corpse, a jumping one! I can't believe it." Said a soldier.

  "Must be some cos-play or what. Such supernatural event won't happen!" Said Frankenstein Rodriguez, 35, captain of an army, father of an 8-year-old girl and a 3-year-old boy. "Hello!? Can I help you?" the soldier walks towards the jumping corpse, it suddenly grabs him by his neck and then bites his neck.

  "Shot it! Fuck! What the fuck! Help!" Shouting by the soldier. "God. Bullets caused nothing to it! I am sorry Wade! Hold your fire!" Bang! Frankenstein shots at Wade's head. The corpse jumped away after it sucks all blood of Wade.

  "Is that a zombie? Wade is dead!" Said Slade, another soldier.

  "Not just one here, more than we can imagine, they are not afraid of bullets. We still don't know how many people died here. Let's move back and tell the president. It might be the fucking end of this world!"

  Like a thunderstorm strikes the city, thousands of people lost their blood and turn into a zombie, jump corpse. The army can do nothing because zombies are not afraid of bullets, even cut their head they are still able to drink blood. Some soldiers inside the army are scratched by zombies, that caused the collapse of the whole army, attack from the interior, hierarchy. Almost everyone died. Sky darkens, the street is full of jumping corpse, filled with death, resentment, darkness.

  Jaden: "I need to make sure my family are still alive."

  Frankenstein and a small team of soldier survived from the chaos, during the meeting with hierarchy of the government, the president was infected by the virus from Skyim, another kind of zombie take up of the building.

  Slade: "It's crazy, what happened is fucking kidding me!"

  Frankenstein: "You gonna be strong Slade! We still have a long way to go! I have noticed that, the former one we met in Loius, was totally different from the later one in the meeting. At least from the way they move we can call them jumpers and walkers respectively."

  Slade: "I don't care how you call them, I only want to get out of this fucking place!"

  Frankenstein: "OK, first we need a map, and a car, also we must know how to deal with jumpers outside this building. My grandfather used to be a corpse chaser, I think I know how to deal with them. But we need tools, yellow soft paper, pen, ink or what, maybe they are afraid of sword made by mahogany."

  Keith: "I have a map of the whole continent."

  Jaden: "Come on! Sir you dream too much, this is not making a movie!"

  Frankenstein: "We gonna try, or we will never be able to get out! Hush!!! Hold your breathe! I think they won't attack creature without breathing."

  Slade: "What the fuck are you talking about! We all gonna die here!"

  Frankenstein: "No, Slade, no!"

  Slade runs out of the gate and uses his machine carbine to shoot jumpers, the one approached Frankenstein and the group turn to Slade because the group did as Frankenstein said. Suddenly, Slade is besieged by several jumpers and screaming.

  Slade: "God! Noo! Frank! Help me?ermmm! Ahaa! Amanda! Jade?"

  Amanda: "Rodris, we cannot just watch him dying! We gonna do something! Rodris!"

  Frankenstein: "Sorry, let him go?Move, to the parking lot."

  Sean: "We still have 4 Rovers and a military RV, but I think we'd first have a trip to the armory. Can't let those big guys sleep for a long time."

  Frankenstein: "OK, here is the plan, Amanda, Keith and Jaden go to the parking lot to get the RV, Sean and Frederica go get some weapons from the armory. We shall meet at Martin street after an hour."

  Frederica: "What are you going to do sir? I mean, for the very first, emergency, how can we kill those zombies, jumpers?"

  Frankenstein: "Pace on the lane, avoid conflicting with them face to face, when one is passing by, better hold your breathe as long as you can. I got some essential things to deal with, move now, keep safe, careful! If necessary, I think they might be afraid of fire."

  Sean: "OK, we must go now, time is not enough, and those jumpers will notice us soon."

  Chapter Two

  (Wiliton district, Skyim, December 13, 2026)

  Galen :"Oho, God!!! What happened!"

  Running on the street, Galen is so nervous about what he saw and what he fears, he need to make sure his families are okay now.

  Galen: "Ava!!! Are you there? OH GOD! A mess... Fuck!!! Ava! Ava!"...

  "Aha, aha, Em, Ea,,," A walker climbs towards Galen, actually, a woman without her lower body, blood is everywhere, the floor is full of intestines, visceral debris.

  Galen cries with tears: "No!!!NO!!! Ava,, Oh God! No!"

  He kneels down on the floor, cries to death, waits for the walker to kill him.

  "NO!!! I can't just leave! Judy, where is Judy?" He struggles to his feet, steps up the stairs,
a sight strikes his eyes, a walker is eating the 10-month-old baby !

  Galen feels dizzy, he wants to die right now, but his resentment is over sorrow, he grabs a machete to kill the walker, then his 'wife', then he rushes out, killing every walker he meets, like a demon, his resentment drives him crazy, he has already lost his mind.

  "Fuck you!" "How could you just kill them!" "You have no idea how indispensable they are to me!!!"

  His consciousness blurs gradually, he feels so exhausted that he cannot wave the machete anymore...... He falls down...Somebody's voice is getting closer and closer: "Galen! Wake up! I need you please come back......"

  (Cielous district, Skyim, December 9, 2026)

  Thomas: "Only around 20 days, walkers have occupied Skye, Dreiy, Cielous and Wiliton, four districts, I have lost contact with Emily for 10 days! I don't even know she is still alive or die!!"

  Stephanie: "You'd better worry about yourself more, we are in great danger now! You have to take good care of yourself first if you want to see your girlfriend."

  Dominic: "Your condition is much better than us, your parents passed away long time ago, all you have to care is your girlfriend, but look at us, we lost our families, best friends!!!! I watched my wife dying in front of me, but I can do nothing!!"

  Jack: "Hey!!! Keep quiet, can you just keep quiet? Walkers are around us!"

  Tony:" If you don't want to die, better shut up your fucking mouth. Now get on the bus and we are moving to Delores right now!!!"

  A group of people ran out of the city, where is now full of walkers, from the radio they heard that Delores district is building a shelter for refugees, and Cloudim government is sending an army to fight against walkers. Thomas's girlfriend Emily lived in Chloes district, that's why he joined the group. Skyim is breaking up now, jumpers in Startim strikes most districts in only a few days, all refugees are traveling towards the last pure land- Cloudim. Nonetheless, Cloudim is close to become a death land.

  Tony: "Guys, have a look at this, huge group of walkers! They are walking towards Cloudim. Do you still think it's a good idea to go to the shelter?"

  Thomas: "I don't care what they are doing, just reach Chloes first. High mountains and the river can stop them."

  Jack: "That may work, but how can we pass through so many residential districts filled with walkers?"

  Stephanie: "Why not move to Junous?"

  Jack:" No, it's dangerous, much more, something from Starim are more threatening than walkers."

  Dominic:" Yeah, the radio didn't mention it, but my family there told me stay away from Junous city, those, hmm, Jumpers, they said, their skin is so tough that normal bullet can cause no harm to them, and they move faster than walkers!"

  Thomas: "More like a zombie..."

  Bang!!! The bus ran into a tree. Tony was shoot in the left arm. Somebody on the roadside are taking rifle to shot him.

  Unknown man:" Now get out of the bus! Or we shoot!!! Hand out your stuff, and weapons!!! I'm not gonna say it again!"

  Jack: "Tony!!! Are you OK?"

  Tony: "Fuck! Damn!!! Gosh my arm feels so painful!!"

  Bang bang bang...... "I am, not gonna say it twice!"

  Stephanie: "God bless us! What are they doing?"

  Jennifer: "Why don't they shoot zombies?"

  Dominic: " Oh, God, my leg was shot!!!" A bullet shots in his leg. Unknown man: "Get the fucking out!!!" "Boss, walkers are approaching! We gonna be quick!" "Fire!!! Kill them!"

  Jack: "Wait---!!! Hold your fire. We can talk, what do you wan..." Bang!!! A silvery bullet shoots in Jack's head, from right eye through his head.

  Stephanie: "Oh God!!! Jesus Christ!!! They just kill him!"

  Bang! Tony uses his pistol to shoot those gangs, "Fuck you son of bitch!!! Fuck!!!"

  Thomas: "We must run now!!!"

  Jennifer: "We can't leave Tony!!! And Jack's dead body, Oh......I cannot hold my tears."

  Tony: "Run!!! I cannot hold for too long!!!"

  Thomas: "Come on buddy! Let me help you. Can you move?" Thomas helps Dominic get up and rush to follow Stephanie and Jennifer, they dash into the shrub wood, Jennifer's hand was shot in by a stray bullet.

  Jennifer: "Oh I am going to die!! I am bleeding!"

  Stephanie: "Hey! Keep up! You will be fine, we need to find a safe place to help you two stop bleeding."

  Thomas: "Come on, buddy, you can do it!"

  Dominic: "You can just leave me alone! I cannot catch your pace, let me die please!!!"

  Stephanie: "How could you say that! We survived a long way to here, you cannot just give up!"

  Thomas: "I am here, buddy, you will be okay!"

  Hundreds of walkers gather here because the sound of gun shot. The gangs' group are busy killing zombies, Tony catch the chance to get out of the bus and run away.

  Chapter Three

  (Loius district, Starim, December 10, 2026)

  Outside the parking lot, Jaden is trying to open the gate, Keith and Amanda are watching over in the front.

  Amanda: "Be quick Jaden!!! If those jumpers come, none of us will survive!!"

  Jaden: "The code is hard to decipher. Give me a minute."

  Keith: "Why don't you just cross over the wall and get in?"

  Jaden: "Oh, we must be polite! Right, I mean......hey, what are you doing?"

  Keith climbs the wall and crosses it quickly.

  Jaden: "......"

  Amanda: "Good job Hernandez!"

  Suddenly a jumper approaches, "Hush!!!" Jaden and Amanda hold their breathe, even dare not to change their emotion.

  The jumper smelled Keith, and jumps between Amanda and Jaden, tries to jump in the lot but is blocked by the iron gate.

  The two exchange their eye contact, hold the jumper's left and right arms rapidly at the same time, the jumper is struggling.

  Jaden: "Its strength is so huge! I can't hold it..."

  Amanda: "Control it or die!!! Use your knife to cut its damn head!"

  Jaden: "No way! It will bite me! "

  Roll, Hum hum hum... Zoom!!!! Keith is driving the RV towards the gate.

  Keith: "Watch out!!!" Clank!!! The RV dash into the gate, Amanda and Jaden let the jumper go and rush away separately. Boom!!! The jumper was crashed meters away.

  Keith:" Get on right now!!!" The two rush to climb the RV.

  "Fuck!!! I feel so excited!!! Good job man!" Jaden shouts.

  Keith drives the RV towards Martin street. There are only 8 minutes before 1 hour ends.

  Sean: "Frederica, come on! No time to waste!"

  Frederica: "Jesus! They are so heavy!!!"

  Sean: "I've got two bags of weapons! You dare to say heavy?"

  Frederica: "I ma a girl! Okay?"

  Sean: "We are already here, where are the others?"

  Frederica: "Sean!" Several jumpers approach, Sean and Frederica hold their automatic rifle and shotgun ready to shoot them. Nevertheless, bullets can only slow them down, but they are still 'alive'. 10 meters, 8 meters, closer and closer.

  Sean put his shotgun to his mouth, "No, Sean, Please!!! Don't leave me alone!!!" Frederica shouts.

  "It's good to stay by your side..." Sean is going to press the trigger, at the very moment, Frankenstein appears!

  Sew! An arrow shots into the closest jumper, and it soon burns ! Other jumpers turn around and jump to him.

  Sean, Frederica: "Rodris!!!!"

  Holding an iron bow, Frankenstein is shooting jumpers down one by one, calmly, rapidly. Suddenly one jumper jumps behind him, he grabs a yellow paper full of codes and put it on the jumper's face swiftly. It stops immediately.

  "What the hell?!!!" Sean cannot believe what he saw.

  Frankenstein clear 23 jumpers in 5 minutes, which gives his men a great shock !

  "Rodris!!!" Frederica runs to him and hugs him tightly, "I thought we will never see you again!"

  "Stupid girl, here I am." Frankenstein smiles at her, "How's it going Harris? Ready to push the trigger?"

  Sean: "Oh, man
, I've never been so happy to see you in my life. " Sean laughs.

  Zoom---!!! "Good morning everybody!!!" shouts Amanda.

  Keith stops the RV next to them, :"Wanna go for a drive?"

  "Why not."......Hum, hum, hum.......

  Amanda: "What's the next plan, Rodris?"

  Frankenstein: "Delores, CLOUDIM."

  Jaden: "Is everyone okay? Come on, give me a smile, you can have a good rest now, welcome to my villa!" Ha ha ha...

  Amanda: "How did you get those, tools?"

  Frankenstein: "From my father, the corpse chaser. He learned it from a master. How to deal with jumpers. They are afraid of sunshine, but today is cloudy, I mean when the sun is out, they will not jump outside."

  Keith: "That is why they could attack us even it's daytime ha!"

  Frankenstein: "And they are afraid of mahogany, I know this is wired, but we should do as Romans do."

  "Wish we can arrive at our termination safely." said Frederica.

  Sean: "I wonder if walkers from SKYIM meet jumpers, what will they do? Fight for 'food'?"

  Jaden: "I hope so, or it could be worse."

  Nicole: "Bro, you wake up? You were in a coma for 10 hours! I 'm so worried."

  Winfrey: "Buddy you are very brave, ha? You should be thankful that you were not bite by any of them, or I would shoot you in the head."

  Nicole: "I am really sorry for what happened to you, but Wayne you have to be strong, survive for Ava, she doesn't want you to die."

  Winfrey: "Yeah, even though she turned in to a walker, Oh so cruel, you had a baby right? That's terr..."

  Nicole: "Could you please shut up!"

  Winfrey: "Oh, okay, I'm sorry."

  Galen: " Where am I?"

  Nicole: " This is my boyfriend's car, we are heading towards Delores. There's a shelter. And CLOUDIM has a big army fighting against walkers. We will be fine there."
