The Rise of the Beast

Wednesday.

Today was the reopening class for Brian, as his 3rd year university was his object to accomplish, he clean out the house as his normal routine and left at midday for evening class.

In school, he saw his friends and teachers his days were normal, while, far away, out of the national Territory, their neighbours, were facing an unknown crise, thé abnormal behaviour of certain group of people, as people were being attacked and killed, either eaten to death, or after being bitten, the transmission of an unknown virus turn them to meat eaters, beast, very soon it was reported of being the propagation of COD B, authorities were startled, how did a European quarantine virus reach their territory after the had successfully block all means of entrance, how did the enter.

After investigation, the mystery was solved, bit was to late, as a large part of the territory was conquered, and as time passed, the zone was gradually becoming dark, and their direction of virus spreading was towards the densely populated zones and countries, as Thursday came, and the national Territory of Nigeria, Gabon, Congo, and Tchad was taken over, and the virus kept expanding as Niger was attacked, Cameroon was being infiltrated, as nobody really took the situation seriously.

Thursday evening.

Coming back late from his evening classes, Brian was fun of wearing earpiece as he listened to his music, looking Infront, he saw a man moving strangely, it was night, so Brian's gaured was up, as he observed the man as the got closer, the man kept scratching his face, as his skin remain on his nails, Brian's body went cold seeing the scene, he took a large gap between him and the man, as the man passed without saying anything.

Brian breathed out in relief, but one step Infront, and he could feel threatening feeling behind him, as he bend down and pounced forward rolling on the floor dirtying his clothes with the dust, and as he lifted his head sweating, he saw the man, looking at him with bleu eyes and abnormal nails, to long, his skin was gradually changing to white and his veins were bulging out as if the were at the point of exploding.

The image flashed in Brian's mind, the news, the woman who was broadcasted, at last scene of the man being smashed away by another, the appearance was the same, but the other looked more grown up, the only thing Brian could say at the view of this man was;

"Zombie!"

And immediately, the zombie pounced at Brian, as Brian used his bag as a barrage and blocked his assilant bites and pushed him away, he tried getting up but was hit on the rib by the zombie as he flew a distance away, coughing out blood, Brian was sure of hearing his ribs cracking, this annoyed Brian as he stood up and picked a stone.

The zombie kept growing, as he once again pounced at Brian, but this time, Brian used the stone and smashed on the zombie's head violently, as the sound of cracking bones could be heard, but the momentum of the contact led to big dust smoke.

As the smoke went, up, Brian came out of the smoke and ran at High speed, while the zombie was twitching it's body on the floor as half of his skull was damage with a broken stone not far, but it did not take long for the zombie to get up screaming out of rage, as it dashed pursuing Brian at high speed.

Still a distance away from his house, Brian was in a deserted road, as behind him and approaching mad man came chasing after him, he cursed his luck as he saw the at the distance a construction building, as he did not think to far, and proceeded to enter, jumping the security door, the zombie took one leaped over the security gate, as it kept chasing after Brian, seeing the persistence of the beast, Brian ran and slide along the corridor of the building and picked up a hammer, immediately, a shadow arrived his side as a wave of sharp nails missed his face and landed on the wall, both the hand and the wall received damages, as the zombie's hand nails was shattered and remain in the wall, as the other hand was prepared to launch a new attack, using all his strength, Brian took his chance and strikes first as he used the heavy hammer and slashed horizontally towards the zombie's head.

Spalsh!

That was the sound of the zombie's head finally being annihilated as the zombie fell like a log of wood on the floor, Brian, pressured to death mentally and physically could only kneel closer to the wall, as he breathed out.

After a minute he ran out of the construction sight, and ran immediately back home, on his way home, he saw a crowed of similar beast feasting on something on the floor, Brian did not want to imagine what the were feasting on, as he finally arrived home, he knocked on the door, and it immediately open, as he was left in, closing the door behind him, everybody looked at him, with confused expression, what's going on? The all thought.

"Where is that!?" Brian asked immediately, as his dad's was actually not yet back from work, Brian could only imagine the worst, as he took out his phone and called, it did not take long before the line was pick.

"Brian!, In any case, don't leave anybody go out of the house" those where the first statement his dad said, as Brian was taken by surprise.

"I know, everybody is home safe, be careful, the are strange people behaving abnormally outside" said Brian

"Where you wounded?" Asked his dad.

"Luckily not" answered Brian, as he examined his body, his dad gave the following instructions to follow as Brian dropped the call.

After having a bath, Brian stared at the mirror as he looked at his image, he breathed in and out before, wiping the dew on the mirror.

"Everything would be alright" he said, as he close the door.
