Another Planet

Around the world, the ground shook, storms formed, calamities happened, many died. Aside from this, a strange phenomenon happened in every side of the world.

Thousands of meteorites rained to all parts of the world. People from different sectors thought the same - this is the end of the world! After the fall, these pieces of rocks emitted green smoke that covered the world in it's wake.

Accidents happened in a short amount of time. Planes crashed, road accidents occurred, boats sank!

-----------------------------------------

In a wide clearing in the middle of the forest, a girl laid down like a dead person. There were no signs of life in her, no heart beat, no breathing. Her blood was not flowing and she laid there, still and lifeless.

Her hands and arms are full of bite marks, it is visible that she used them to avoid the onslaught of the biting. Her chest has four diagonal claw marks, and blood dirtied her white blouse. Her face was filled with mud, as it rained hard during the morning. She looks like a beggar, paired with her dirty hair.

But suddenly, she opened her eyes. Anyone who can see this happening might die out of shock, as her eyes were as dark as the night; even the whites are turned black.

She tried to stand up but to no avail, she failed. Her joints are stiff so she gave up on the idea of standing.

Then she got the idea of looking at her hands. And she was dumbstruck on what she found out.

"What the hell?! Why are there bite marks on my hands?!" she shouted, but all that came out of her mouth was a "Roarrrrrr".

"System, updates!" she shouted. But of course, only her roar can be heard from a distance.

"Confirming identity of host. Identity confirmed. Welcome to Earth, young lady Lei. Young lady is currently affected by the zombie virus."

A robotic voice answered her question in her head. Lei frowned as she heard the system's updates. 'Zombie virus?'

'Can you fix my body? I can't stand up.' These sentences came in a form of thought. She hates her roaring voice . Besides, her System is installed in her brain, and thoughts can be exchanged between them.

"Negative. System low in energy. The air in this planet is different from the air of Home Planet. System cannot convert the air into pure energy."

Lei frustratedly hit the grasses beneath her. She can't stand up, she's affected by some kind of zombie virus, she's far away from home, System cannot convert the air into pure energy, and last but not the least, she's so hungry!

'System, can you at least make my body stand up? And are there any ways of obtaining pure energy?' she asked.

"Affirmative. System can transfer the remaining energy to the young lady's joints and connect them with System. For the conversions of energy, System can detect a type of source feasible for the conversions," System answered.

Because of the answer, Lei's face lit up, and her black eyes showed signs of shining.

"Tell me, System. Tell me!" she excitedly shouted that came out as a roar. Many lifeforms around the forest instinctively vacated the area, as they sensed an incoming danger.

"System can detect some energy fluctuations from a distance. It's type is still unknown. But System can pick up the nearest coordinates for young lady."

And as System ended it's statement, the girl is now brimming with excitement. She can finally fix her body! But an incoming statement made her freeze in no time.

"But young lady, the remaining energy in System can at most sustain for an hour. Most of System's energy was used two Earth years ago to merge young lady with the host's body."

This immediately left her thinking.

She clearly remembered what happened at that time. The pod that she was in crashed on this planet. Due to the differences of the atmosphere in Home Planet and Earth, as soon as she left her pod, she would suffocate.

She was lucky that her pod was still intact after crashing, or else the air conditioning system of the pod might leak, making her die a tragic death.

She was discovered by a girl, at most 14 years old, in the mountains. Of course, the girl is Jasmine Aria, the young princess of the Aria Clan who's conducting a "Give-a-gift" project to the natives in the area.

The baranggays in the mountain suffered from a sudden forest fire a day ago. With Jasmine's loving heart, she immediately volunteered and gave donations. It was by this way that she met Oliver, a native boy of the mountains by her age. They became friends that lasted for two years before the Earth's sudden change.

Jasmine found her pod by the center of the burned forest, the effects of the crashing pod. Without further ado, System immediately scanned Jasmine and found that the girl is compatible with Lei. So System immediately transferred Lei's consciousness to Jasmine.

In this process, the nanochip that was embedded within Lei's brain physically transferred to Jasmine's brain.

Transplanting a nanochip system in a person's body required a surgery especially when the system engraved in the nanochip was still not conscious. But in Lei's case, System was already conscious for ten years, hence making the entire problem easy to solve.

After the transfer, Lei's physical body died, akin to a skin without a soul. And her consciousness battled with Jasmine's for possession.

Unfortunately, Lei's consciousness is originally weak, paired with System losing a lot of energy, Lei managed to survive by hibernating inside Jasmine's body.

'I can do this, System. Just give me the coordinates and instructions,' she firmly said, resolute can be seen in her lifeless face.

"Orders received. Searching. Location found. 95 meters 30°. Average meter per minute calculated according to host's body structure, virus effect and System energy compatibility, 10 meters per minute. Obstacles are also within the calculated average. At most, young lady can reach the target after 10 minutes," System calculated.

"Alright! Let's do this!" Lei shouted, which of course, gave out a roar.

The surrounding species sensed her excitement, and they tried their best to vacate the area 10 meters away in diameter. The sense of danger crept up to them.

As System transferred the stored energy to her joints and muscles, Lei can feel that she can finally stand up. Then, she stood.

She wanted to admire the surrounding nature of this foreign planet, but to no avail, she need to hurry. System's energy has a limit. She has to obtain that energy source mo matter what!

She started to walk, two meters, four meters, six meters. She turned left because of a tree them walked straight again based on System's instructions.

"Young lady, it seems that the target is moving. According to System's calculations, it has to be 88 meters 30°. But now, the target's location is already 85 meters 30°. It is moving towards our direction."

Even though Lei was somewhat dumbfounded about the fact that the 'energy source' is moving, she was still happy. It's moving towards her!

Lei pushed her body to the limits in order to reach her target faster. As expected, she almost doubled her pace. One meter per four seconds or 15 meters per minute. She reached half the distance after three minutes. In another minute, she was able to close the gap!

"Young lady, the target moved towards 15 meters 40°. In another 40 seconds, seems like the target will be five meters 50°. This coordinates must be exact according to the previous observations on the target."

It was because of what System said that Lei made herself walk faster but to no avail. 15 meters per minute is already her body's limit.
