The bus rumbled to a stop in front of an abandoned elementary school, its windows shattered and the playground eerily empty. Somehow, their hearts became heavy. After all, this is a place where innocent students are studying. If it weren't for the fact that the school will be opened in the afternoon, there may be a lot of students here, and they might be having a hard time cleaning them.Liam, Brandon, Hannah, Marcky, and Jarvis exchanged glances, and a decision was silently made to explore the area. This is the perfect place since the gate is still good to use.As they entered the school, they closed the gate to make them feel a little at ease. After all, the mindless creatures have no ability to open any kind of gate or door. They are only able to move freely when there is no obstacle.The group cautiously entered the school; they couldn't afford to get any unnecessary attention. Their footsteps were echoing in the empty hallways, and as they ascended to the second floor, they heard

The group continued their journey on the desolate road, the ominous sky overhead hinting at the unpredictable nature of the transformed world. No one could even feel at ease, even though they were the only people on the road. They couldn't see another human, a mindless zombie, let alone an animal. Although they saw mutated animals, it is still not enough for the team to feel at ease. After all, they don't know if they are safe or not.As Brandon drove the bus, a tense atmosphere settled within the group, or, in other words, it didn't even leave them alert to the dangers that lurked beyond the bus windows. They couldn't even let their guard down for a second.Suddenly, the sound of a distant commotion reached their ears. Brandon squinted ahead, his eyes widening as he witnessed a violent confrontation between two groups up ahead. One group appeared to be ambushing the other, attempting to rob them of their belongings.Are these people not afraid of the mindless zombies coming in their

Meanwhile, in a remote corner where the chaos was less conspicuous, Liam guided Jarvis and Marcky to a safer spot. Hannah, ever watchful, guarded them as Liam focused on Marcky's injured arm.Hannah is worried about her lover, but she knew that with Liam with them, she could feel at ease. After all, Liam could heal them. However, it is also the reason why they needed to keep it as secret as possible. If possible, they should not tell this to other souls aside from themselves."Hold still," Liam urged, his hands emitting a soft glow as he held Marcky's arm in his other hand and mended Marcky's wounded flesh. Jarvis, although visibly relieved, maintained his guard, ensuring their safety amidst the ongoing battle. After all, after he got destroyed, something bad happened to them. He almost got bitten, and if it weren't for his brother, he would be badly wounded and might become one of those mindless creatures.The battle with the mindless creature continued, the group's abilities collidi

Even though the groups were full of worries and anxiety as they felt excitement to discover things from the corporation, they still continued to do what they were doing.As the group walks down through the hidden passage, their steps echo in the dark corridor, and their only light is their flashlight. They remained unaware of how deep they were as they walked down the stairs. All they could tell is that it's been forever since they're walking down. The air grew cooler, and the atmosphere took on an eerie quality as they reached a large double door at the bottom of the concealed stairwell."How deep are we right now?" Hannah asked out of the blue as she raised her head and stared at the ceiling.Brandon, who was standing in front of them with Liam on his side, responded, "I think we're at least three to four stories from the groud."With those words, everyone gasped. They couldn't tell since they started walking in the stair case from the sixteenth floor, and they did not even notice h

Their discoveries made them feel weak in their knees. After they all finally calmed down a little, Brandon took this as an opportunity to gather the group. He then laid out a plan of action since they all agreed to take this out of the public once they went inside the safe zone.The air was tense, but the urgency of the situation made them move forward."Listen up, everyone," Brandon began, his voice firm.He looked around and met everyone's eyes. "We need to document everything we've found here and expose the truth behind these experiments." He then looked at Liam. "Babe, you're majoring in computers, right?" Liam nodded his head. "Alright, that's more like it. Babe, I need you to do your thing with the lab's system. Get as much information as you can."Liam nodded, his expression focused. "Got it. I'll dig into their files and try to access any data that might shed light on what's happening here." He then stopped. "But what if someone is guarding it?"Marcky answered without waiting
Chasing Tomorrow | BL | SPG Forty-sixth Run
Liam did not bid a sweat on hacking the laboratory's system. It wasn't because the firewall is weak, but because there is indeed no one guarding it. It's just like what Hannah and Marcky said. With the gathered information in hand and the truth about the experiments exposed right in front of them, the group faced the crucial task of freeing the people that were floating in the liquid within the cylindrical machines.Liam, aware of the dangers posed by the system, took charge of the delicate operation. It wasn't that easy to make them out of the glass. They have to make it more safe."We've got all the data we need," he said, turning his body and looking at his companion before smiling at his lover. "But we have to be careful about how we release them," Liam explained to the group, his tone serious as he looked at the body inside the cylindrical glass. "The system is set up to administer a lethal shock if the glass is broken without proper preparation. It was like an emergency botton."

As the morning arrived, the group finally woke up. The sunlight isn't there anymore since the fog is too thick in the sky. Even though it can't reach any of the buildings yet, they don't know what will happen.Not long after they woke up, they started to gather everything they needed and their things to prepare their breakfast and leave. The air was still quiet, and it was giving them a bit of a scare. After everything that happened, they were filled with a sense of determination. They were busy preparing for their breakfast and departure when their calmness was shattered by an unexpected sound emanating from a nearby room.It was loud.Everyone was startled. They exchanged glances, but they knew where it came from. Because of the things that happened right now, they couldn't take away their alertness, and since they heard a movement from where they put those people, they moved and went there. With cautious steps, they approached the room from which the sound originated.In the group,

The people in the group were all determined to unveil every dark secret that the corporation did and their connection to what happened right now in the world. If people get to know about it, they will surely be punished, and all the researchers who got away from this mess and who were still proud to work for the government will surely feel panic and fear. That's right; that is what they wanted to feel. The feeling that those people whom they use in their experiment. They are surely not going to let this go.With Lacy and Harol's statement, their evidence will be more profound and solid. No matter what those people do, they won't be able to get away from this. Especially when they are the ones who caused this widespread apocalypse.The people from the other country won't sit still as well.They are surely going to bring the corporation down.The atmosphere in the place where they decided to spend the night last night turned somber. The group then started to explain to Lacy and Harol ab

When Brandon laid down next to Liam, he immediately hugged him. Liam looks okay, yes, but Brandon still sees that it's not really okay. Just as he expected, when he hugged him, he felt his shoulders go up. He's crying. The room was shrouded in silence, and the air was heavy with grief. Soft moonlight filtered through the broken window, casting a pale glow on the scene inside. This is the second time Brandon has seen Liam this broken. It hurts, but he can't do anything because he knows that the only thing Liam can do right now is cry. Liam kneeled beside the lifeless body of his sister, Jasmine, his fingers trembling as he gently brushed a strand of hair from her face. Seeing his sister's face for the first time after the end of the world is really heartbreaking. What he expected was that he would be able to hug her. Who would have thought that he would see a cold corpse? Her once-vibrant eyes were closed forever, her body still and cold. He could barely recognize her through the

Brandon, who was just listening, looked at Liam. Even she couldn't believe what her boyfriend said. That's because he knows how much Liam loves his siblings. "Let me explain," Liam said immediately. "Yes, you will only be a burden. First, we know that your ability is not offensive, Jarvis. Yes, you will help me and Brandon, big time, in the travel because you know where there are many and few mindless zombies, but what if we're fighting? We don't know if we can protect you and Brandon at the same time." This time, Liam turned his gaze to Nathalie. "And yes, your ability was offensive, but it's not enough for you to fight against many mindless zombies. You still need more experience." Everyone is silent; no one talks. They all listened to what Liam said, and it was all on point. Everything Liam said made Nathalie and Jarvis unable to say anything, even though they admitted it. "Fine!" Liam just sighed as he looked at Nathalie's back as she left the dining room. He knew that he co

Two years.Who would have thought that people would be able to survive the two years that are happening in the world today? Two years without proper sleep, two years without proper food and drink, two years full of dread and fear.Even though Liam had created a cure, it still wasn't able to save everyone.When they gave them to the mindless zombies from the beginning, it didn't work. Especially mindless zombies. They did not become humans again and return to normal, but only lost their ability to use abilities. According to Brittany and Sophia, who studied it, that is because their body has become immune to the virus and their body no longer agrees to remove the virus from their body, which is why the zombie virus gives the body something to sacrifice, just like the ability that disappears in mindless creatures that are injected with the cure.Many are disappointed, but they are still thankful that there is still a chance that they will not become mindless zombies in case they are inj

A few days ago, Luis and his caravan left. Concerned for their safety, they still had to leave to carry out the mission Brandon had given them.Liam sat quietly on the edge of the bed while his boyfriend Brandon lay down."Bran?"Brandon looked at Liam for a moment. "Hmm?" You could see the worry on Liam's face, and Brandon knew what it was for. Because of that, he sat down, and he yanked Liam a little. "So, what's your worry?" Brandon asked softly as they sat down and hugged Liam from behind."Do you think Luis will be okay?"Brandon placed his chin on Liam's right shoulder. "Don't worry about them." He gave Liam a kiss on the cheek. "You know that I wouldn't give them a job like that if I knew they couldn't do it. Also, you also know that there is an ability user among them, right?"Liam held Brandon's knee, which was bent at his side. "I know that, and I have faith in your foresights. I just can't help but worry."Brandon laughed softly. "You still haven't changed, Liam." Brandon's

When the night fell, Luis got up from his bed. He has to act because otherwise, this mission cannot be called successful. The last thing they need to do is find someone to be their witness.Brandon told him that this would be the key to spreading even more rumors about the cure.Underneath the blanket of darkness, with only the moon and stars to bear witness, the three guards exchanged knowing glances as their leader approached them with a sense of purpose in his stride.Luis told them earlier, but Luis still went to them to tell them again."Alright, listen up," their boss said in a hushed tone, his voice carrying a hint of urgency and worry. Even if he doesn't want to leave his group and act alone, he can't do anything. It's easier without him. "I need to do something real quick. Keep an eye on things here while I'm gone," he explained.The guards nodded in understanding, their expressions serious as they prepared to maintain vigilance over their surroundings. Of course, they knew w

Meanwhile, on the other hand, half of the caravan members wandered inside the base. Look around and see how they can start with what Luis did to them. This is not against their will because they also know that this is the only thing they can do in return for the return to normal of the only child in their group. They stopped in front of a building. Many people are inside just based on the noise it creates from inside, and they hear it outside.This building, as far as they know, used to be a pub or club. They looked into each other's eyes before they went inside. They think this is the best place for what they do. Even if there are many people, they will only say one or two. When they entered, they entered cautiously, their senses alert for any signs of danger.Inside, they were met with a buzz of conversation and activity, the air thick with anticipation and apprehension. These people are still smiling even after experiencing a large-scale attack from mindless zombies. After all, w

The man paused in his work, wiping sweat from his brow as he turned to face Luis and his caravan. "Ah, a caravan," he said, greeting them with a weary smile. Even though he was smiling, Luis could still see the tiredness in his eyes. Who wouldn't be tired if you used not only physical strength but also mental strength, which is very difficult to replenish if you didn't use crystal nuclei? "You've come at a chaotic time. We recently faced a siege of mindless zombies that breached our defenses and wreaked havoc on our safe zone." He sighed. "I don't even know why the mindless zombies suddenly came together. Not only that, even if those at the top of the military were aware, even if they dispatched immediately, it still happened like this," he added as he sighed again and smiled. "If you're going to enter, go through the east gate. The process is long because everything has to be secured, but if there's no problem, you can enter."Luis nodded, understanding dawning on his face. "I see,"
Chasing Tomorrow | BL | SPG Ninety-second Run
"Let's not send them out yet," Liam said out of the blue while resting.Brandon looked at his boyfriend. "Huh?""The caravan, let's not send it out yet. It's only been an hour after the siege, and I think it's safer if they don't leave first," explained Liam.Brandon stopped for a moment and thought. Liam is right. If the caravan does leave now, they will definitely be delayed because there are scattered mindless zombies around.Brandon nodded in acknowledgment. "Alright, let's do that." He stood up. "I'll go talk to him. Just stay here and rest. If you can't, just stay in the room and sleep."Liam laughed weakly but still nodded and answered. "Alright."Brandon immediately looked for Luis. When he saw her, he called her. "Luis!"Luis turned and then said Brandon's name. "Brandon, do you need something?"Brandon stood before Luis, his expression grave yet determined. He shook his head softly as he delivered his instructions. "Luis, I think you guys need to stay here at our base for th

As the horde of mindless zombies approached, their eerie moans filling the air with dread, Brandon and his group braced themselves for the impending onslaught. The tension was palpable as the first wave of undead creatures descended upon them, driven by an insatiable hunger for human flesh.Brandon's eyes narrowed with determination as he wielded his powers, manipulating the metal around him to reinforce the steel fence that stood between them and the ravenous horde. "Hold the line!" he shouted to his comrades, his voice cutting through the chaos of the approaching fray.With a primal roar, the zombies descended upon the barricade, their sheer numbers overwhelming as they clawed and gnashed at the fortified barrier. The sound of metal scraping against metal echoed through the air, punctuated by the desperate cries of the undead.Hannah and Marcky fought alongside Brandon, their abilities complementing each other as they unleashed a barrage of offensive strikes against the encroaching
