CHAPTER 1: THE BEGINNING

1682 Words
Now, many of us try to forget the horrible effect of the spawn virus, losing  our family, friends and loved ones to the psychotic blood thirsty virus, many of us who survived  are trying to get used to the new earth, the new life and what it entails , while some of us are still grasping the reality of the pandemic. It’s been a decade since the virus broke out, turning the whole of humanities population into psychotic killing madness. A handful of us found refuge on the island of Madagascar provided by me Daniel Williams, Trillionaire mogul and medical genius. Well, here’s the story of us, the survivors, what’s left of humanity.           In other to get a clear sense of where I would be going, I think it’s best to start from the very beginning. it all began on the 3rd march of 2060 in an African Country called Gabon at around 3:55am, a bio-molecular engineering lab located at the capital city of Gabon, a group of scientist studying a dormant biological structure called the HRLV – 12 (spawn), well according to what they named it, well back to business these group of lab scientist began panicking as the once dormant biological structure became active. It all seemed like a miracle, until it became extremely hostile crawling into the body of a nearby lab scientist, its first victim. The infected individual went on to develop extreme feet which no human athlete can ever exhibit, e.g. super human strength, durability, resistance, super limb, speed and an unusual thirst for human blood and human flesh. As at 8:50am that morning, about 3 million people were infected in Africa. It became so serious, as the AU tried to prevent its spread but they couldn’t. We, the lab scientist of the African Union began researching on the virus, trying to find a cure for it but to no avail, as the virus began mutating and developing into more complex structures, like nothing were ever seen. Many of us came to a conclusion that the virus is not of earthly composition/origin but I knew that this virus was aliened, seeing it never resembled any viral structure, we know it have both negative, positive, neurotic and atomic charge with an extremely dense structure and an unlike behaviour resembling that of a Nano machines. It was obvious that humanity had unleashed a problem which they cannot handle. Three months later, it was everywhere infecting over five billion of the world population as all efforts from all medical and health organisations came to shore. I had to do something I began restricting my father’s hidden bunker on the island he bought on the bank of Madagascar, I turned it into a fortress which would become a safe haven for the surviving population of humanity. With each day passing by, the Virus grew stronger and bigger showing several behavioral distinction across every individual, it came in contact with the first type of infection  which I mentioned earlier, increased strength, speed, durability, resistance and thirst for blood and human flesh, the second type of infection with a distinction of healing, having an incredible healing factor being able to heal almost from any injury, the third type of infection being extremely flexible, the fourth increased heights ranging from about 9 – 13 ft and increased body mass sought of like a giant, the fifth and sixth type of infecting showing a unique behavioral distinction which involved a stable mentality no scratch or injuries like other zombies, being able to think like normal human do, no savage and barbaric act present, but had different super human abilities like having a regenerative blood, to use their blood cells and plasma to create hard physical constructs like weapon, having extreme strength and the other category, flight ability to copy and mime anything ,weapon,  fright style, accent, form, voice and movement with a string of extreme psychotic trait and a taste for human flesh. The sixth distinction showed another unique trait, being normal like  human, think at normal human intellect, no sign of psychotic behaviour  ,but exhibited a different trait from other distinction example was psychic display and precognitive ability. Which made this type very dangerous and deadly. These two final categories were not common and were only seen in few infected. The sixth with a count of 1 out of six individuals who were infected; the individual belonging to sixth category where always seen as the head of every pack. All this distinction had one thing in common, which was a taste for blood and human flesh. After close examination of these six categories and closely observing their behavioural distinction, I and my team began gathering survivors, transporting them to the fortress which was to serve as a safe haven for them. The fortress comprised of high titanium walls surrounded with ballistic weapons which included, canons, proton guns. Advanced A.I cameras to track movement, and X-rays, AIV detectors able to detect weapons thrown or launched at fortress under features of the fortress included 30,000 buildings 10,000 towers, 20,000, other building parks, malls, shops, storehouses for grains, farm plant, a sufficient power plant for steady  power supply. The fortress was built to contain about 5 million people and more. but the fortress had one flaw , above all security and functionality of the fortress, it was only 3 generation of new born this was going to be a problem in our future, which would involve us going out of the fortress to other parts of the island to five home with no resources to increase the size of the fortress, we just had to have wait and have faith that the apocalypse would be over before thing go out of hand, with all world powers and world leaders down, earth economy dropped drastically, we, the remnants had to start from point zero. Looking at their situation I knew that humanity is a long way from salvation although it seems like the world has come to an end but I will not lose faith, neither will I let hope down for the remaining survivors on earth, we will stand and survive this apocalypse and we will come out stronger than ever before. Well at least that was what I told myself, pitiful consolation speech, but in a way I needed that because at this point I was frustrated, the zombie attacks kept on increasing, funny part was, these zombies were not the regular type of zombies we watch on television, those mindless and idiotic ones, No! These ones were on another level it was as if they were highly trained, they were very meticulous, well organised and attacked in segregated packs, like nothing ever seen, even the wolf packs were an understatement to the zombie packs; gosh I am getting so good at naming things. Hmmmm, well back to business, putting all of this into consideration I had to plan and strategize on how to gather the survivors without getting hurt and also transferring them safely to the fortress without our location getting compromised, had to search for big guns. The secret agency responsible for taking down, extremely dangerous criminal hives, terrorist groups and war mongers all around the world; PHEONIX. I took some of their best agents about two dozen well equipped to go on my worldwide hunt for earths survivors well within three months, we were able to revive about five million survivors and transfer them to the fortress without giving away our location, when I had that the mission was done, I was at least relieved from one heavy burden which plagued my heart, now I know you would be curious to know about the rest of my burden, but be calm   in due time you shall know, first let me continue our little talk. As I was saying, when I was done with the rescue of about five million human survivors, that was which I thought were the only survivors of the apocalypse; though I began to put things in place in the fortress, measures that would ensure a safe and joyful stay in their new home, things which you would all know in due time. Two months after I gather the survivors, my satellite began to pick up more human movement across the globe, but with my associates exhausted and resources to go on a new hunt running low, I decided to wait for an extra month to recuperate. That extra month felt like a year to me because another burden has been added to me and this time knowing that thousands of survivors were out there to die without any chance of further survival kept pricking my heart but then again what could I do, embark on another hunt without enough resources and risk blowing our location and the five million lives in it; I hard to think, think hard, Daniel think, I thought but to no result, it was just a waste of thought all I had to do was sit and watch as countless more die without moving an inch , I felt guilty my mind kept judging me, the silence and the incapability was just killing me, I couldn’t do anything, I waited, until boom a miracle happened or should I call it a remedy to my incapability, it wasn’t actually what I expected but it would suffice, I am speaking of people rising up to secure this survivors all over the world in each continent, men and women with resources, capital and strength to house and provide a safe haven for this individuals, well, according to what I knew though, actually thought it was a good remedy but in due time, as we progress you will see why the remedy I thought was going to suffice became a disaster and thirst for hunger and wealth but in all that, it actually helped me regain strength, resources and capability to go on more hunts, it was nice while it lasted and as they say make due of the available when the needed isn’t available.
