The sea waves wooshed on and off the shore, the waters moving against Chesa's arm. Gradually, she opens her eyes and sees a crab moving about the shore. “ I'm I dead? ” her subconscious asks. Lifting a finger, she rubs it against the crab's shell and it retaliates by snapping it with its pincers. “ Ah! Not yet!! ” she exclaims sitting up. “ Dolly?! Dolly wake up! ” she calls shaking her as she was lying beside her. “ Uh... Huh? Chesa?” She says as she got up, rubbing her eyes with the back of her arm. “ Are you alright Chesa? ” She asks. “ Yeah! I'm fine! Are you? ” “ I think so. ” Dolly replied and Chesa helps her get up on her feet. “ Where... Where is that boy? ” Dolly asked as she looked around. “ Over there! ”Chesa replied as she points to khent who lay on his back with a giant crab on his face. The crab which seemed to be surprised at what it was crawling on, picked at his nose with its pincers. “ Ouch! ” he exclaimed and immed

__________ Mira and the others woke up to a very quiet afternoon. “ Arrgh! ” they groaned as they got up from the floor. “ What the heck happened here? ” Bituin asked as she got up. “ No idea. ” Adrain replies. They headed over to the edge of the roof and looked down, but there wasn't anything out of the ordinary. “ What the? ” Nathan exclaims. No shrieking fiends, no dead bodies, nothing at all. “ Did what happened last night really happen or did we all just have the same bad dream? ” Emma asks in confusion. “ I don't know, it's weird. I don't feel tired at all. ” Stephanie adds. They turned as they hear Mira pry the stairs door open. As curious as they were she also wanted to know what was going on as well. “ My head doesn't ache either, but there's still bandages on it, and on Mira's hand so I think it really did happen. ” Emma announced. “ You think? ” Bituin muttered Heading cautiously down the stairs, they were all on t

“ Emma step back! Something's not right. ” Mira cautioned, stopping her. “ What do you mean? ” Emma asks terrified. “ She... ” Mira turns away and bites her lips, “ she's infected. ” she said. There were actual tears of regret in her eyes for the first time in a very long time. “ She can't, that can't be true! ” Emma cries. “ Wait! How can you be sure? She could be just traumatized. ” Bituin says. “ She's right! ” said Stephanie surprisingly when she had returned to her senses. “ I was grabbed by the shoulder when we were on the ledge. ” she continued. “ I didn't say anything because I thought it was nothing. ” “ it is nothing, Stephanie! ” Emma cried. “ You were grabbed not bitten. ” “ Fear, convulsions, there are all signs. I've seen them before. At the class, before it, all began.” Stephanie replied. “ You're not turning. Give me your hand!” Emma said and confidently approached her but Stephanie drags herself up and stepped backward.

Safe and high up a tree, Dolly and Chesa stayed till evening. A few feet beneath them, a ball of green light revolved sucking in whatever got too close to its range. They knew to obey Jane's order to not leave the spots they sat, so as not to get sucked in as well. Chesa hides her anxiety from her friend as they waited and watched Jane kill off the fiends. Her movement was nothing short of elegance and simplicity. Her pink blade would dance around its audience, taking off their heads clean off their necks before returning to her palm and her green lights would make sure that none escape her reach. She would head out to “ clear the area ”, instructing them to not leave the safety of the tree she left them on, coming back severally to make sure that the revolving energy ball does not suck in her dearies as well. “ Are you done yet? ” Dolly asked on one of her comebacks. She was too excited about the hope that she would be reunited with her parents soon that she bec

She slightly opens her eyes and sees a female figure standing a few meters beside her. “ Jade!? ” she calls. “ Do you have any idea what you have done? ” the figure asks with a tone of anger in her voice. “ Huh? ” Chesa exclaims wide-eyed awake, instinctively pulling Dolly up from sleep. “ W... What? ” She mutters as she wakes. “ Whoa! ” she exclaimed as they staggered back in fright. April stood before them in her true form, her kite-shaped eyes glaring at them. They tried to run but were somehow forced on their knees, gold daggers take form around them rotating in their axis. “ I can barely believe my eyes. this? ” Kira scoffs coming right behind her. “ W... What did we do? ” Dolly stammered. “ She was your protector, your mother! I didn't drag you 1000 kilometers from the sea for you to p

Epilogue “ Alright gang, now that's been taken care of. I have good news to share. ” Intel announced, standing in front of her team. They were all sitting on beach sofas surrounding her, as she addressed them standing. All in human form. “ Once cutie returns we'd finally be able to leave. Right after we take care of whatever the heck is waiting for us. ” She continued. “ Yippee!” Tink exclaimed. “ Just to be clear we're never coming back? ” April asks. “ No. ” Intel replies. “ Guys, I'll NEVER put you in this kind of dangerous situation ever again. I promise! ” she continued emotionally. “ This will be our last few months on this planet. First, get off your butts,” she says, making them all stand. “ We gotta clear this island first. So get ready to kick some butts. ” She cheered with a vicious smile. Tink reloads her gun. Her eyes were silver without the glasses. “ Just to be clear, we're not giving the infected holondias?” she asks. “ No, they're goners. Don't waste it. ” Apr

A smile drew across his face as he salivates in expectation since it has been a long since he tasted anything.Quickly, he headed over to the dining and positioned himself at the quietest table there. As usual, his food was served. An incredibly beautiful fried chicken begged him to eat it, along with rice. Of course, he couldn't reject its wish, so he ate it all a little bit too fast, not minding the souls around him. He kept on eating plate after plate even though his stomach begged him to stop. After almost finishing an elephant's share, he collapsed on his chair and had to rest there for an hour for his body to proceed with what the heck just happened.After that, he stood up and walked out of the dining hall.

" Liam! What the heck is that? " Linda asks as she and the others; May and Stacry, run towards him in the middle of the field. “ A warning. ” Liam replies solemnly as he gazes at it, which happens to be the only cloud in the sky. It soon caught a lot of attention from the students as some point at it, others running out of their lodges to catch a glimpse of the mysterious symbol very slowly swirling in the distance. “ What's the possibility that that is just a natural rare cloud formation phenomenon and nothing for us to worry about? ” Stacey asks nervously. “ I really hope so. ” Liam replies. ** Or probably less than 24 hours. ** The thought crossed his mind. “ And if it's not? ” May asks. “ Then we would have about three days to one week to escape. It all depends on Jason. ” Liam says, supporting himself on the soft grasses on the ground. “ We always knew that we did not have a lot of time left. But that, if it's what we think it is, is just a clear r

**" “ Hey, Liam! ” little Mike calls as he ran towards his friend in the enormous playground they were in. “ Hi! Did the plan work? ” Liam asks nonchalantly. "Absolutely," replied Mike with a mischievous grin. “ You're a genius! Almost everyone is coming. ”Mike chuckled, appreciating the outcome of their plan. "Great job, Mike! Now we can have an amazing time with all our friends here." Liam smiles. “ But Liam... ” Mike pauses, wearing a worried look on his face. “ Yeah? ” “ Do you sometimes feel that the plan is going too well?” “ Huh? ”Liam pales, his brow furrowing deeper. “ Like when what you worked so hard for is finally paying off, but then you feel a tight knot in your stomach that something is about to go terribly wrong? ” “ What? ” Liam eyes grew wide open. "** “ STOP THAT DAMNED BUS! ” The yelling permeated his consciousness. He turns his head along with other students and sees the principal rushing towards the buses.

Miss Claire lies head bent sleeping on her desk, but suddenly, black specks of dust of dark matter gradually sip out of her onto the desk. It escalates until the entire table is covered in waves of dark matter. Then at a point two hands rose from the sand and forcefully grabs her by the hair, jerking her awake. She screams out of fear but soon realizes it was just a dream. But how much of it was? Touching her face softly, She could vividly remember the cold feeling of the palm on her face, and that very day that sand seemed to sip out of her body onto the desk. The memory still haunts her, and she wishes she had spoken up, but who really would believe such nonsense? So she tried her best to swallow it up, convincing herself that it was just a nightmare. But the suit. **Clothes don't just disappear after a few days of removing it does it?** she asks herself, grasping the chair's arm as she allows those memories back into her mind. Right after she returns to her

“ How's May doing? ” he help her out finally by asking. That gave her the boost she needed. She was doing this for her best friend. Her one and only friend that this moron hurt so deeply. “ She's furious with you! ” she snapped. Her eyes locked on to his renewed boldness it lacked before. The cool-headed Liam was stunned at the sudden change of emotion. Those green eyes of hers were fixed on his, with no single sign of shyness he had ever seen in any girl's gaze before. “ She is, is she? ” he asks, forced to look away. “ You lunatic! You didn't think anyone would find out. She literally dated her rapist for years, don't you have any dignity left? ” She charged at him in anger. “ I'm sorry Stacey. But I'm still mourning his death, please let's do this sometime later. ” He replied calmly, wiping off droplets of tears from his eyes with the back of his hand. Stacey jolted with pity. She didn't think that he was burying all that hurt and regret in his hea

May wakes up the following day in her warm bed. She sat and rubbed her eyes while the sunlight bathed the room. After freshening up, she leaves. “ So you're saying that dark matter is an actual creature, that wants to destroy the whole world or something? ” Stacey asks when May concluded her story as they head to the dining. “ I dunno what is it it wants, but it just fills you with hate and revenge. Making you feel like that's the only thing in the world that you need. ” “ That's creepy!” she shivered. “ And he can control you too? ” She asks. At this point, Stacey was willing to believe her even if she mentions seeing walking-dead people. “ Yeah. But you still have a measure of control, it is your body. But, it would be very difficult. Imagine, we've given Jason so much reason to hate and want to get revenge on us that I doubt we have a week to plan our escape. ” May says they got to their table, their breakfast being served simultaneously. “ Geez, we sh

** “ Stop! Stop moving damn it! ”** ** “ What the heck is going on? I can't control my body. ”** ** “ My sight turned on and off as my feet mechanically moved back to the camp.I've literally been fighting with every part of me. My body, my mind, my heart.I keep trying to find reasons not to get revenge but that was all I was filled with.I was bombarded with only the pain, the regret I felt. Rage overwhelmed me, and I had all the power to exert it.But the mayhem, the agony, I cannot bring them here too. ”**May fought, as flashbacks of all the horrors that happened in the Philippines bombarded her. The scarred faces, the screams, and the death that was spread, and in the middle of it stood the cause. A twelve-year-old girl with dead soulless eyes.“I can't! ” she muttered, tears streaming down the dark empty voids that replaced her eyes. This was the most scared she had ever been throughout her life.Dark Matter popped up her veins, making it as dark as hell a

Jason returns to the newly found buried treasure ( the library ) immediately after the announcement not to leave the campgrounds made by Miss Claire. As he dives into one of the books there, he quickly realized how much he missed the gentle pounding of his heart due to excitement, and the growing suspense inside him in expectation of what he was about to dive into. But perhaps being possessed by a cold soulless creature isn't that bad after all. The thought came across his mind. It has its perks. He didn't feel sey or afraid, he had inhuman strength and he was almost indestructible. Wasn't he just shot in the head? But yet he was still alive. Even still, he didn't like losing almost all his emotions and killing innocent people. Damn! What happened to Mike? And what will happen if they find out about the people he killed? All these thoughts interrupted him from his reading as he looked forward absent-minded. _____ “ Wha... What do you mean you
