Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 109 - THE HALF-BROTHER
The Chief just arrived at the place where the real Boss was living. Instead of welcoming him, everyone inside pointed their guns at him. “What the hell is happening?!” His eyes widened when he saw the real Boss furiously looking at him, as if he wanted to kill him from that very moment. “You son of a b*tch! How dare you destroy the laboratory without my consent?!” The real Boss held the collar of Chief’s clothes and tightened his grip. “Everything will not go according to plan if I don't do it, Boss.” Fear was visible to his eyes. The real Boss is the only one he afraids of. No one but him. “You killed Maria! And my granddaughter… my precious granddaughter!” He was shaking with anger and slowly choking the Chief. “I thought Cally’s your only g-granddaughter? Ugh! I just did it to reach our goal. To produce a cure—” He was cut off when he felt the need for air. “You thought… Hah! I don’t care about that damn goal! As long as my family’s not involved, you’re free to do anything but

“...Kuya.” Julsen slowly closed his eyes before his ghost left him.“J-Julsen… Hey, man. Wake up. Julsen!”The night became silent after that bloody encounter. A lot of bodies were lying on the ground… lifeless.Timotheus carefully let him go and looked at the blood in his hand. She clenched his fist and rushed to Danryll to give him a hard blow. Danryll didn’t bother to dodge his attack and just let him.“How could you?!”“Sir, stop it!” Xol went in between to stop Timotheus while Ferran, on the other hand, just watched them because the unusual feeling of pain was forming inside him again.“I will never regret it!”“How will you prove that he really killed the doctor? Huh? You don’t have—”“Of course… I have.” Danryll threw him his phone that was immediately caught by Timotheus. He watched the entire video and Julsen really killed Dr. De Vega inside the laboratory. He unconsciously dropped the phone astounded.“Y-You think you all s-succeed? Even if you revealed them to the whole wor

March 16, 2022Wednesday 7 AMMonths had swiftly passed…“Where are you going, dad?”“I’ll just visit someone… it’s been a while.” He said before leaving their house. The sun rose already and the streets of San Lorenzo came back into life.With an open window, Timotheus felt the morning breeze. He was greeted by the neighborhood. On his way to his destination, he passed by a flower shop. “Good morning, officer! You’re at the right time. Our flowers were freshly delivered.”A white bouquet of gerbera flowers caught his attention. He immediately put it beside the passenger seat. He stared at the flowers for a second before starting the engine.It was a peaceful drive not until he noticed a commotion in the middle of the road.“Again?” He parked his car at the side of the road.“You f*cking j*rk! You’re the one who bumped into my car! Look!”“What? I’m just passing by and you’re—”“Excuse me? What is this all about?” Timotheus asked while checking the damages.“Who are you?” One of them
Hope of the Dying World PROLOGUE
[“SL News... last 2020, an epidemic has spread throughout San Lorenzo that killed almost half of the town’s population. And this disease seems to be returning and the side effects are even worse than last year. It was scattered throughout the town and everyone is expected to stay in their home to ensure your safety. Accidents are every---”]‘Cally!’ He was so nervous while running. “Dad.” He said almost lost his breath.“Where are the clothes? And why are you almost out of breath?”“We need to leave.” “What are you talking about? Your sister is not feeling well and she needs medication.”“I’ll explain when we get home. But for now, we need to leave this place!”“Trestan Joern---” His phone rang.“Dad please...” He ignored his son and lifted his hand to stop him from talking.“What!? Virus? Epidemic? What are you talking about? Fine. Fine. I’ll be there. I’ll just make sure that my children are safe before I go. Okay.” The call ended and there, he faced his son. “Let’s get out of he
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 1 - THE BEGINNING
March 05, 2022Saturday 6:00 AMSenior Police Officer II Timotheus Alfarez was nearly asleep while waiting for the end of his duty, but the station’s six o’clock alarm rang out in the whole department, and he almost fell from his swivel chair because of shock. He shook his head, stood up, got his car key, and went out of his office. Bid his goodbye to his co-police before he left the station.He drives silently while feeling the morning breeze coming from his open window. Sun rays filled the almost cloudless blue sky. The sun was hiding behind the tall mountains of San Lorenzo but at any minute, it would show up high above it. The car’s tank was approximately empty so he went to the nearby gasoline station and refilled it. The empty and quiet road of San Lorenzo was slowly replaced by the noise of engines coming from different transportations. Start of a new day for public laborers, factory workers, and for the people who’ll do stuff that matters.It took him thirty minutes before
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 2 - THE AMUSEMENT PARK
There are no classes and work on Saturday’s and Sunday’s so the Alfarez family either stays at home or goes outside to have fun and relax. Cally is playing with her dolls on their front porch. “Do you wanna play with me?” She said while holding a female doll in her right hand.“Nah! I don’t want to.” She answered her own question while holding the male doll in her left little hand.“But... But why?” She moved the female doll and acted as if she was crying.“Because you ale... hmm... you’le ugly! Yes! Ugly! Bleh!” “Wahh! Bad! Bad! I’m not ugly! I’m not ugly! I’m pletty!” She struck the female doll to the male doll and acted as if they were fighting.On the other hand, Trestan is watering their plants in front of their ‘Single-family Detached Home’ made of concrete materials with black and white paint. It faces the calm sea and the place is peaceful and quiet not until a boyish teenage girl, named Blair Gabrielle Ferran, stops riding her bike in front of Alfarez residence. “What’s
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 3 - THE HORROR HOUSE
Trestan was still holding his head. “She literally has a hard head. Tss.” He walked around without knowing where to go until he stopped by in front of the horror house. Another memory popped. ***“Dad, let’s go! I want to go inside this horror house.” Little Trestan pulled his father but Timotheus didn’t move.“I can wait here outside, son.”“But---““Baby, don’t force your dad. I can join you if you want.”“But I want daddy to come with us.” Trestan pouted.Trestan winced and shook his head while remembering how clingy he was before.“Hon---““Fine, kiddo. Whatever you want. Let’s go.”“Hon, you sure? You’ll be okay?”“Of course. Why wouldn’t I be? It’s… It’s just a horror house.” He gulped once before entering.***Trestan followed his memory until he found himself, walking alone inside the dark place with red blinking lights. “Nothing’s new. Still the horror house from years ago.”***“It’s not that scary. Right, dad?” Little Trestan asked his dad who heard him cursed a lot of tim
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 4 - THE COMMOTION
“Sweetie, please stay here, I’ll just need to do something important.” Timotheus kneeled in front of Cally, busy eating her cotton candy. “ Daddy will be back immediately. Stay and wait for me, okay?” “Whele’s Kuya?” “He’ll be here soon. Don’t go anywhere and don’t talk to strangers, understand?” She nodded. Timotheus kissed her daughter’s little forehead before he left. Cally was sitting on a wooden bench near the carousel. She’s not afraid to be alone because she knows that her father or brother will be there soon. While eating a pink cotton candy, she noticed someone behind a store nearby. The lady, wearing a uniform of the amusement park’s staff, was vomiting something red, and it looked like blood. Her body has some purple spots and looks like she’s sick. She went down on the bench and was about to walk toward the lady’s direction when someone held her shoulder. “Hi Cally!” Her classmate, Dylan Trevon Torres, called her. “Dylan!” “Oh! Is she, Cally? Your cr---“ “Mom!

Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 108 - THE CODE
“As I’ve thought… Got it.”Czaquira ready her pen and paper while Blair was dictating the code they needed to decipher. The letter’s too tiny for them and Blair has 20/20 vision. She could easily read the characters unlike the others inside that special room.“R-O-M-12:12—12|13|14|15 II-C-O-R-4:10—31|32|33|34|35 J-O-H-N-3:16—17|18|19|20|214_2_3_5_5… That’s all.” Blair creased her forehead, not recognizing what the code was telling.Czaquira tried to type it all but it’s too long for a passcode. “Fourteen characters… We only need fourteen characters.” Czaquira uttered.“No… it’s nineteen, I guess?” Xol confusedly said.Minutes after minutes… an hour and ten minutes left. In the middle of the brainstorming on how to decipher the code, Timotheus' phone rang.“Aquiro,” Timotheus said, hoping for good news. “Really? Oh God… thank goodness.”“How’s the search, sir?” Xol asked, hoping for good news.“They found him and…” He looked at Blair who was about to cry. “He’s alive.”Blair’s kn
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 107 - THE PENDANT
“Trestan… He’s alive!” Aquiro wiped his tears and went beside Trestan’s bed.“It’s a miracle that he’s still alive after that fall.” The street sweeper spoke before he sipped his hot coffee.“You’re the one who helped him?” Aquiro asked.The man just nodded and put the empty cup on the table near him.“He needs a long rest. I should leave. Take care of him.”“May I know your name, mister?” Aquiro stopped him for a moment.“No need.” He tapped his shoulder before leaving.“Sh*t… so it’s true. He’s alive. Thank goodness.” Ziph sighed in relief when he saw Trestan lying on the bed unconscious.“Damn you, cous’. You scared us. We thought…”“Stop being a crybaby, Aquiro. Haha.” Beor teased him.“F*ck you.”They just laughed at Aquiro’s hilarious face. The laughter stopped when they heard Trestan speak.“Cally…” He mumbled. “Hey, Trestan! Do you hear me? Trestan.” Aquiro slightly shook him. “Cally… Cally!” He suddenly woke up from that deep sleep. He groaned when he felt pain all over his
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 106 - THE BODY SUIT
Heavy rain fell while Ferran was on his way to save Blair. He struggled a bit because he couldn’t clearly see the road. Ferran looked at his wristwatch before stepping on the gas to speed up.“Ugh!” He almost got into an accident if he hadn’t stepped on the break immediately. His chest tightened and his breathing became heavy. ‘Alfarez! Alfarez!’ Real Ferran’s voice echoed inside his head.His heart pounded harder than the first one, as if his consciousness would leave him. Regardless of the frigidness of the atmosphere due to the rain, his body was heating up and beads of sweat were forming on his forehead and neck. “H-Hah… Hah…” Ferran’s head dropped on the steering wheel and his sight became blurry.Darkness filled the surrounding and he woke up in a void.***“It’s been a while… Timotheus Alfarez.” The voice echoed everywhere.‘That voice… That voice!’ He opened his eyes but he saw nothing but darkness. ‘I’m here again… Does it mean…’ He held his head when he felt a sudden pain.
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 105 - THE SEARCH
“Danryll! We need to go. Something’s going on with the kids.” Zyrille uttered after she got a call from Dylan. “Danryll!”“What?” Danryll looked at her before he ended the call.“The kids… we need to go to them.”“Why?” He stood up and they were walking and exiting the wrecked laboratory after they put Dr. De Vega’s body in a safe space. Even if they wanted to, it is not the right time to mourn. There is a special mission they needed to accomplish.“Dylan called and… and he was crying. I don’t really understand what he was saying but all I understood was they were hiding from bad people.”“I thought they were safe where they were.”“I thought so too but it is not the case now.” Zyrille checked on Julianna who was sleeping peacefully and soundly inside the van. “We need to hurry or else, we might lose those innocent ones too.”Danryll sighed heavily before starting the engine. The place is not that far from Mrs. Santos’ house and the travel was quick because it’s night time and there i
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 104 - THE CAR CRASH
“Trestan!”The sound of the waves coming from the San Lorenzo sea and Trestan’s whimper were heard in the middle of the cold night. He was shot on his shoulder and it’s bleeding too much.“Trestan…” Blair was weeping while trying to assist Trestan. Her hands were full of his blood but she didn't mind.“Shh… Don’t cry. It’s… nothing.” He tried to lift his hand to wipe her tears but he couldn’t. The wound was too painful to bear.“Give me that young man!” The Chief was forcefully pulling the briefcase which contained the cure.“No!” Trestan tightly hugged the briefcase while Blair did her best to defend him. She kicked the Chief’s ass and gave him punches but still, it’s not enough. Blair even received a hard blow from the man that made her weak.“A-Ah!” Trestan cried out of pain when the CHief choked him to death.“T-Trestan…” Blair mumbled while watching her lover crying because of pain but she couldn’t do anything but to watch him suffer. She can’t move an inch.The Chief pushed him
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 103 - THE SORROW
“Oh my gosh!!” Blair covered her ears as they heard the explosion coming from the surface. It slightly shook the place because of its great impact. “Dr. De Vega!”Trestan put his hand on her mouth and strongly shook his head to stop her from running back to the laboratory. He then pulled her again because at any time, the enemies might track them as soon as they learned about the tunnel underneath.Rain was heavily pouring when they reached the exit. They unhesitatingly entered the dark and vast forest even though they already knew what danger was waiting for them.The ground became muddy and slippery that made it difficult for them to run faster. Trestan tightly held Blair’s hand while running for their lives because unfortunately, they encountered fake hunters on their way out. One of Blair’s feet slipped and she almost fell into the pit where the organization disposed of the dead organisms from their failed experiment.“Blair! Sh*t… Careful! Let’s go.” Trestan was tired but he just
