*When a thing is done, it's done. Don't look back. Look forward to your next objective*

(Flashback)

(2 years ago)

"Sorry miss Jusai...you husband is dead...we did all we could"a doctor said to my mum and I.

My dad suffered from cancer...though we were told it was in the final stage and he may not survive we still tried all we could to save him.

My mum sat on the floor crying...I have never seen my mum Soo sad before...I grabbed the coat of the doctor and yelled at him for not saving my dad...

"You call yourself a doctor...and you can't save my dad... you're useless...you don't deserve that title"I said in anger with tears in my eyes...my mum quickly held me and told me to calm down..."they killed dad"I said crying with my head on my mum's chest...

To be honest I wasn't mad at the doctor...I was mad at myself...I am a smart kid... straight A student...won alot of trophies and medals from science competitions...been able to solve any challenge I face...but I couldn't do anything about my dad's health... everything I said to the doctor... I was actually referring to myself...I felt disappointed in myself.

My mum took me to the car and we drove home...we didn't say a word till we got home...we went into the house and my mum went to her room...I felt devastated...I followed my mum to her room and saw her sitting on her bed with a picture of dad in her hand...she cried...I quickly went to console her..."don't worry mum...you have me and I promise to be by your side... please stop crying... I'm sure dad wouldn't like to see you this way" I said as I hugged her...she smiled at me and told me I was just as positive as my dad...kissed my forehead and went to her bathroom to freshen up...I took the picture she dropped on the bed and made a promise to myself..

"I promise to become the best doctor ever...and nobody will ever lose someone dear to them"...

(Present day)...

I woke up ... feeling a little pain on my head

I stood up and looked around...I realized I was no longer in the forest...I was standing on a pile of rubble...most of the buildings around me were abandoned or partially demolished.

I suddenly heard a noise behind me...I turned around and I saw something approaching towards me...it had a human form...a discolored skin...eyes were pure black...fang like teeth...and most of its body were rotten...

It leaped towards me...I moved aside making the creature hitting the ground hard...it charged at me again but this time I picked up a rod by my side and stroked it on the creature's head...it's body was surprisingly soft which made the rod go deep into it skull.

It fell to the floor but got back up So quickly..."what the f**k is this"I said as I took another rod and drove it through its heart...the creature staggered back a little but again charged at me...It leaped at me again sending me to the ground...I quickly held it's head stopping it from drawing it's head closer to my face in an attempt to bite it off...I managed to push the creature aside and quickly held the rod in the creatures chest and shoved it deeper causing the rod to pierce into the ground...the creature struggling to pull itself off the rod I quickly lifted up a flat yet big stone from the rubble and drop it on the creatures head causing it's head to burst letting out I think might be it's brain and some blood all over the place...

I immediately sat on the floor trying to figure out what's going on when I suddenly heard a female voice..

."Hello Shukashima Jusai... welcome to Velos city...I am one...I'll be your instructor in this world"the voice said...I immediately knew I wasn't in my world...but still found it hard to believe there was another world apart from the one I live in.

"What is this"I said trying to know where the voice was coming from,"you have been chosen for a special project....In this world you are made to save it or survive it there is a certain virus in Velos City called the X-Influenza known as the Devil's flu. It is a deadly disease that was spread through the drinking water in the city, and it starts from the throat and slowly attacks the entire body system"

I still didn't know what was happening

"That creature you just fought was a person who was suffering from the disease...which is known as the X- influenza"One said as I turned and looked at the creature..."wait a second...that was once a human being"I said as I held my head with hands panicking..."holy sh*t...I can't do this...I just killed a person... please send me back"I said as I panicked on the floor.

"Calm down Shukashima...the virus took away every sense of being in it... clearly it was dead before you killed it...so it was like killing a walking corpse After 24 hours the body system of the victim would slowly lose every sense of humanity and become a working zombie like corpse...with a venomous spit that can melt the human skin. "one said assuring me.

"I still can't do this... I'm just a kid..."I said still insisting that she sends me back to my world

"Shukashima if you are able to pass all your tests for the next seven days, you would be able to go back to your world...for now you can't be sent back unless you are done with your mission...the watch on your wrist has a timer...you have seven days to complete your task...if you succeed I'll send you back...if you don't for the sake of this You will be dead"One spoke without caring how I felt.

She continued.

"Your task is to find out their weaknesses. And what can destroy them...you have only 24 hours for each of the seven days to report back to me finding their weaknesses is aid you to know if you are to survive or to save. .if you don't, you would be killed instantly and would have no way of going back home. "

I looked at my wrist and saw the watch..."looks like I have no choice" I got up and dusted myself

"Tap the green button on the watch to begin your timing...if you want to ask me any questions tap the yellow button but keep in mind you can only call me twice a day..are we clear?"one asked

"Yes I got it..."I'll advice you to head left there is a shack over there...you will find some people who haven't gotten the virus ..try and see what good they will be to you"

O.N.E said and wished me good luck..

I asked her if I will get some food or water on a daily basis but she didn't reply so I knew she was around anymore...

I took out my phone..."damn..no cell service"I took the path one suggested...I walked for almost half an hour till I finally saw the shack up ahead...I ran towards the shack but suddenly I saw two X influenza victims coming at me from my right and left...I increased my speed but stepped on a rock and fell..the infected humans leaped at me...then I heard a gun shot...this made them fall to the ground and a male voice came from the shack telling me to get in...I got quickly and ran into the shack...I looked through a gap in the iron door and I saw the infected victims getting back up...they charged at the door but couldn't break it down..

"Don't worry about them...this shack is made of bricks and the doors and windows are covered with iron protectors so they are gonna need a thousand of them to break through that door"the voice from earlier said..."thanks Soo much"I said to him

"Don't mention it... The name's Jason nice to meet you"...
