Her falling accident made a noise and attracted many zombies when she heard their suffocating groans. She wanted to test herself if all zombies will really ignore her forever like she's not existing at all. Unfortunately, she couldn't do the test because a white blanket blocked her sight and wrapped it around her body. She felt a hand grab her wrist and pulled her up forcefully. She was shocked of this person's strength. Another hand wrapped around her waist to guide to the safe area. She couldn't resist as she knows that resisting is not an option at all. If she does and the zombies caught up but ignored her, she couldn't explain her situation. Even, she doesn't know why so how could she explain logically?
Well, superpowers will appear in each person sooner but it is still the first day. She doesn't want to be treated as guinea pig at the beginning of apocalypse, just because of zombies are ignoring her. So, she could only let the hand's owner drag her away while she's trying to pop out her head out of the blanket's cover like a cake roll.
"Uhm...You are?" Psyche Flint panted when she, finally, popped out her head out of the blanket's cover. Her body soaked in sweat because of the blanket's thickness and almost out of breath but still her arms and legs are both wrap inside the blanket while being dragged like a bulged sack.
Psyche Flint was stunned when she realized that the one who is pulling her right now is a man with cold and aloof personality. Additionally, his handsome face can be sold in a brothel from ancient times. She contemplated if how much money she will earn she, together with this man, was born in ancient times.
"I'm Darwin Kim, the 1st son of Louie Kim - the Head of Kim Company" Darwin Kim said while Psyche Flint looked at his handsome face. She looks like a fan and Darwin Kim is her idol. She stopped daydreaming after hearing that Darwin Kim is the son of Louie Kim, her father's mortal enemy and former best friend.
"I'm...Psyche F--" she was about to say her name when a woman with soft tone and sweet voice shouted the word 'Oppa'. She has a pretty face, slender body that showed her sexiness, twin-tail long hair, a C-cup size hill there and jade-like skin while holding a plastic bottle of soda drink.
Psyche Flint's lips twitched. She thought that no one would use that Korean word here in the Philippines because they are not in Korea or may be, some people are using it because of Korean Wave (means, Korea's culture influence the world).
Suddenly, the woman's gaze turned hostile. Psyche Flint felt that she meet a demon girl crawling out from hell-hole.
"Who is she?" the woman asked coldly while squeezing tightly on soda drink like venting her anger to the soda drink as she couldn't directly confront Psyche Flint because of Darwin Kim and Darwin Kim doesn't like a troublesome woman so she is passionate on masking herself as white lotus flower that always trigger Darwin Kim's urge to protect a weak woman. This is also the reason why he rescued Psyche Flint.
"Oh" Darwin Kim's response to the woman's questioning. He looked at Psyche Flint and stared at silently like a statue.
'Why do I feel that I know what he meant by staying silent like that but so lazy to answer?' Psyche Flint felt troubled and awkward but still, she reached out her left hand for the handshake.
"I'm Psyche F--" Again, Psyche Flint was about to tell her name but the woman got annoyed so she waved her hand, implying that she doesn't want to know her name but for Darwin Kim's point of view, the woman implied that she doesn't care of knowing Psyche Flint's name, as long as her condition fine which made him smile. His smile brightens the mood between the woman and Psyche Flint. His cold personality passed her standard for men but his smile, plus, his handsome face and strong body-built is more attractive than a sweet honey.
"CAPTAIN!" a soldier called out to Darwin Kim. He nodded and left them. The woman pouted at the leaving back of Darwin Kim. The woman and Psyche Flint followed behind her. They entered a huge space of land filled with grassland and tress. Psyche Flint looked around and halted her steps when she realized that they are inside the military camp.
"W...Why are we here?" Psyche Flint asked. Inside her, she was panicking because of many possibilities that will happen to her, if ever she stayed and her secret leaked. First, she will become a frontline soldier puppet who always fight with the zombies. Worst case scenario, they will force her to singlehandedly cut those zombies outside. Even if they are not a threat to her, she still hates their rotten smell and chilling groans. That will be a sleepless nights, if happened.
"Is there something wrong?" Darwin Kim asked when he noticed her pale face. The woman is observing them from behind and feels jealous because, it is the first time that Darwin Kim said a word with concern.
"Uhh.. I'm fine" Psyche Flint's lips twitched weirdly when she felt the woman's gaze on her body. She sighed and wanted to be out of the woman's sight but the woman's eyes still stick on her body like a leech.
"Miss Andrea Su, Mr. Valenciano is looking for you" another woman said, to the woman who was hostile to Psyche Flint. Andrea Su is hesitating because of Psyche Flint's closeness towards Darwin Kim. She couldn't bear to watch them being so close to each other and she feared that, one day, Darwin Kim will fall in love to Psyche Flint.
She clenched her hands and decided to follow another woman, heading to Mr. Valenciano's area of monitoring while giving a warning look to Psyche Flint. Psyche Flint will really become a real dumb if she doesn't know the meaning of Andrea Su's warning look.
Darwin Kim leads Psyche Flint to the temporary refuge for the survivors, the underground mall."No wonder he found me there" Psyche Flint thought and frowned as she looked around and saw many exhausted and dispirited survivors inside. They are slouching on the wall, hugging their family, sleeping for a short time than a human usually does, and wary of each other's greediness.The area's population was reduced to one-fourth of the area's total population from before the apocalypse."What is your survival pl
"What happened?!" Andrea Su asked loudly as her brows furrowed. She was about to report to her superior that there's a strange woman entered the camp easily despite the zombie barrage outside the refugee's camp.The camp is surrounded by many zombies outside as they are looking for their prey. The human scents brought them here. However, the thick and sturdy wall that served as a gate couldn't let them enter at will.They could only groan like hungry wolves. Which is why, Andrea Su is curious of Psyche Flint's identity. Only her superior's family can enter and exit the camp without anyone's permission with a group of bodyguards.
Lincoln Joe tilted his head as he looked at Lincoln Joe with confusion.“Cough.. Cough.. I’m Psyche” Psyche Flint introduced herself without including her family name.She intentionally exclude her family name, not because of her family’s reputation nor wealth but because she wanted to survive silently. Even if the zombies are ignoring her presence or she’s not edible for zombies’ stomachs, she still wanted to survive the apocalypse silently without letting other people know her uniqueness.She shook her head when she imagined being a lab rats for the apocalypse sci
“Yes, It’s me. Your Grandpa Su” the old man smiled. Psyche Flint still couldn’t believe it. This grandpa Su still alive after five years and his countenance is still the same five years ago!“Grandpa Su, why are you here? My Flint Family is on the other side” Psyche Flint was confused. Grandpa Su was her grandpa Flint’s friend.They were childhood friends and many become their victims of bullying, not physically but financially. It was the reason why many people feared the Grandpa Flint. He could bully other people alone, which was fine. They could still have breathing but Grandpa Su was with him together – which scared away many enemies of Flint and Su F
On the second day of Apocalypse, the Supermarket Mall is still surrounded by many zombies. They are not the only survivors. There are some survivors from other areas like who hide inside the Gas Station storage room. Fortunately, the station has a gate which prevented the zombies on entering the area. Because of this, they can come and go anytime without the surprise attack of zombies. However, foods and drinks are the main point of survival. They have to look for food in order to accumulate enough strength to fight against them.On the other side of the city, there is an area where many survivors gathered. They have many foods and drinks but not enough for everyone to survive for four months. The only way to survive is to look for another warehouse – full of
Psyche Flint sighed and sat down on the sofa with lotus mediation seating posture which relaxed her from outside world. It is one of the Flint Family’s traditions to use breathing technique to set free the mind from worries or stress.However, Psyche Flint didn’t notice the sudden changes around her. The trees swayed, not because of the wind but because of the natural Qi. The thin thread of natural Qi entered her meridian below the belly.For Psyche Flint, the natural Qi is so warm until she almost felt hot like steam spring. However, she doesn’t feel uncomfortable but made her mind relax more. Her pores opened and sweats came out with black dirt.
“Am I invisible in this zombie apocalyptic world right now?” she asked herself while reading the instructions and legend that appeared on the 3D navigation map.She thought that she needs to visit these dots to find out the meaning behind it but the 3D navigation map’s upper corner on the screen which has the word ‘Host Manual’ blinked once and the literal instructions, as well as, legends of the dots appeared.Firstly, she was curious of dot’s meaning so she immediately read the legends.The dots differ in color. For example, th
Psyche Flint squinted because of the light, illuminating the room. She raised her right hand and let her right hand’s shadow blocked the light. She blinked twice heavily while she felt sleepy despite after sleeping many hours. She put down her hand and yawned twice. Her eyes moistened when she remembered yesterday that she fainted.She exhaled deeply and got out of the bed but stop when she remembered that she still haven’t check the last color on the legend of 3D navigation map. She was about to check it but turned her head when a knocked on the door from outside the door sounded. A man’s voice delivered Grandpa Su’s message to eat her brunch (breakfast+lunch).
