The Chase

Dan: Guys, guys, Level 2 Mutant and it's coming fast.

We all panic.

Xia: level two?

We all look at the direction he point to and it look like three of them are running toward our location. Looks like the bastards saw us and damn it, they wont stop until they devoured us. We grab our guns dash into the forest.

Dan: we sure need the help of that thing right now. This things are fast.

John: well first am still confuse and second I don't even know how it works.

Jack: Damn, they are close.

It's night Already. We just keep pushing through everything. After a long run. We were tired and had to stop. The monster are right in front of us growling, stomping the ground.

Suddenly they stop, and began to shiver like they are cold as they stare at something behind us. we were surprised.

We looked back.

Jack: guys if we make it out of here today. We are true suvivals.

A level three mutant.

It's tall, really tall. like 5 meters tall. Like a middle age girraf. It has no eyes but big huge hands and a power full leg, fantastic big sharp teeth and claws but not as big as the level two and unlike the level 2 scale body it's has skin, wonderful tough skin. but it just motionless. It's just standing there like he never notice us. The three level 2 mutant keep moving back gently.

Silent voice mode.

Jack: we need to move.

Dan: no stay. Please just stay I know what am talking about.

The three level 2 began to run and to my surprise this devil behind us just took a leap.

John: Oh my great GOD.

Xia: we need to get the hell out of here.

Dan: move silently and don't make a sound.

Jack: we should make a run for it.

Jack was about to move.

Dan: stopped him) if you make a sound we are dead.

As we keep moving silently. We can hear the way it crunch the bones of the level 2. I look back. He already ate one of them. The remaining two level 2 make a sound getting angry and was about to pounce on the level3 then another level 3 show up and ate up another one, the last one began to move another level 3 pounce on it and ate him up.

John: GOD there are three of them.

Dan: Yes, this is their territory and Here they are families. And we are the invaders.

Jack: what? that's some bullshit

They began to roar against one another.

With that loud roar we had block our ears.

Dan: now run. Run because your life depend on it.

We all ran as fast as we can as the roaring continue another one roar out loud its so loud. It's shut the others up. Then we stop and keep walking silently.

Xia: is this how we will keep walking

Dan: yeah till we get to a safe place.

John: I don't mind.

Suddenly one of us step on a stick and it sound (tick.)

We thought they did not notice but one of the level 3 turn it head. We were all scarred. We paused. Nobody move a muscle. The level 3 is still trying to listen. After a moment it turn it head back. We were relived and we start to move quietly again.

After a while.

We are far from them atleast 5 miles.

We thought we are save. Then

Xia: Ouch

The level 3 came bouncing up and down towards us, we panic and we began to run aimlessly. Soon xia Stop running.

Xia: Am tired, am really tired. I cant run. My legs are killing me.

John: don't worry I'll carry you we need to move. Now.

I was about to carry her but she pushed me back.

Xia: No, I wasn't going to survive anyway. A snake bit me, where the hell do you think I'll get an antidote at this hour.

John: I can do it. It just a snake bite.

Xia: yeah like you cured rippers bite.

I was out of word.

John: ......

Xia: It's my time already. And am ready. I'll hold it, you guys should run, run never look back and never stop until you reach a safe place. Make sure you survive and bring the world back to its normal state or even better. That's a promise.

John: don't do it.

She take a step back

John: don't you dare.

She run off

John: hey come back. .

Dan and Jack grab me.

Jack: let's go.

John: No, we can't leave her.

Jack: We can't run after her either . John, she Sacrifice her life for us do you want that go waste away.

I realized and start running with the others. I heard as xia scream in pain. I wanna look back but I could not, I cannot.

After some hours.

2:00 Am

Normal voice.

Jack: Ahh. finally. Those things are terrible.

Dan: am glad we are out of there.

John: (Sad tone.) yeah. I'm glad

Jack and Dan held my shoulder.

Jack: it's okay kid. At least she will be happy Now.

John: she's gone just like that. She woke me up yesterday morning. It's just too much.

Dan: I won't lie to you bro. She is a real woman. Most craziest woman I've ever seen. One I would die for to be with for the rest of my life.

After the counseling

John: you seem to know more about them Dan, you must have some experience with them before?

Dan: yeah and that was when we were at the camp. One of the guard came to our cell told us that boss is calling us. We all line up in a single file. Boss told us to get ready as we are going hunting "and ask me what we are hunting. Yeah that's right. A LEVEL THREE ZOMBIE." We all chorus at the same time. He shut us up and told us that we will be the hunter, he said well we don't know what they are capable off or their ability. All we know is that they stay motionless. They don't move, unlike others so I think they will be pretty easy to tame. A lot of people argue but what choice do we have, we are slave. When all is settle we get to the truck.

When we get to a Valley we stoped. The reason why we stop was because we spot one. It's tall so easy to spot, we stay far away from it because we don't know what it's capable off. The place was so silent no animal make a sound not even insect. These bastard can hear a pin fall in 10 meters to their location and pin point it out. They will know exactly where it fall. How we knew this? One of us was use as bait. They send him close to the devil. Just 10 meters away. He just said Hello and the thing jumped from his location in Five jump and pounce on the innocent guy and tore him to pieces he ate him up and lick of the blood on the ground. This things are very brutal. We were all scarred nobody wants to move closer but we are being forced to. One of us snatch a gun of a guards hand and shoot up then drop the gun. "If you want us dead then you are all coming with us. He said".They all fixed their gaze at the beast which stay motionless. Suddenly he turn his head to our direction. He take his first leap toward us. The guards ready there gun and began to shoot but the bullet were bouncing off then more of it came out. I know there is no way of surviving. I get into a truck some guys and guards follow me. And I drive off and that how I knew about this things. And no one left on that Valley survived.

John: Damn, first of all am glad we blew up that asshole.

Dan: yeah and am glad I blew him up in pieces.

Jack: (sat down. Held his head with his two palm) I almost got us killed out there with ignorance.

Dan: touch Jack shoulder. But we did not still thanks to you.

John: if you had not listen to him obediently then these would have been another story. It's could have been worse.

Jack: (sign) we need to move on we can't stay here who knows if they are already tracing us here.

Dan: don't worry they wont. we are already far from their territory.

John: are you sure?

Dan: yeah 100% although I did not know how far they can hear so.

Jack: let's move further please

We all began to move again and finally

Jack: alright here is enough.

We all fell like broken pillar.

John: oh God am so tired and thirsty.

Dan: (already snoring).

Jack: (search his pocket for cigarettes and found none). Shit. Damn those bastard, lost all my cigarettes in the chase........ John?

John: (snoring)

Jack: oh well. Might as well join them.

Morning.

Jack: wake up everybody we don't have time to loose.

When I stood up what I saw was the most beautiful place I've ever seen in my life. Its all level up with low grass. Flowers covering the field, there are trees but not many. The sun is still deem so the breeze blow calmly, moving my mind back to the school backyard where I normally relax to think about the world and my life. I wish Xia was here to see this. Then my mind went to back to Megan. How I wish we are together. One thing bothered me though. How can a peaceful place like this be filled with silence and emptiness. It feels like no living organism here.

Dan interrupted.

Dan: do you guys see what I see.

John: yeah isn't she beautuful

Dan: She? beautiful? what are you talking about?

John: what?

Dan: am saying we have a long way to go. With the way am seeing it, there is no single building or place where we could rest or find some food. We should be able to survive but no soul lives in this peaceful place.

Jack: yeah I was thinking about that too don't tell me that those things are here.

Dan: nah those things don't move pass their territory.

Jack: am not talking about level three.

Dan: then what are you talking about.

John: yeah what do you mean Jack. ( getting curious)

Jack: let's go, just pray they are not here. Ahh what the heck. For a place to be these silent the stake of them being here is 90%

Dan: what is it Jack? tell us.

Jack: wormbies

John: excuse me?

Dan: wor.... What?

Jack: sorry but am bad at giving names as in really bad. you see, they look like worm, big at the size of a normal car. They have gear teeth, their base is underground and the reason why this place is silent is because they don't like noise most of the animals here either relocate or eaten. If we try to scare them out. We will be on the menu. If we move 5 meters from here we will disappear into the ground.

I held the hair on my head.

John: what the Fuck. God.
