Mavel

Every single breath felt like swallowing broken glass.

I lay flat on a stained, rusted hospital cot, staring up at a water-damaged ceiling where peeling paint hung like dead skin. The entire room reeked of cheap antiseptic, stale sweat, and damp mold.

This wasn’t the VIP private wing at St. Jude’s where I used to get treated. This was a run-down municipal clinic on the dirty edge of the district—the only place that would take me in without insurance or a valid Crown Holdings card.

  • Apocalypse Rebirth: Here Comes The Last Cure.    Chapter 20: The First Cured

    ~Brown~The heavy steel doors sealed shut, locking Razor out into the red mist. I stood alone in the quiet stone hallway, listening to the hum of the generator.Suddenly, a soft blue light flickered across my vision as my System interface chimed quietly:[SYSTEM NOTIFICATION: INDIVIDUAL "RAZOR" HAS DEPARTED.][ANALYSIS: USER HAS TURNED AWAY A HIGH-TIER STRATEGIC ALLY WITH A SLAUGHTER-TYPE SYSTEM CORE.][WARNING: REJECTING DUAL-CORE RESONANCE SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASES LONG-TERM PERIMETER STABILITY. YOU HAVE LOST A VALUABLE ASSET.]I scoffed under my breath, shaking my head as I turned away from the door. "I don't need anyone," I muttered. "I can handle this myself."I walked back into the main living quarters and clicked on the wall-mounted television, looking for any updates on the outside world. The screen flickered, showing severe static interference cutting across the broadcast. The signal strength was dropping fast, the picture breaking into choppy fragments and gray fuzz. It was cl

    ~Brown~I watched the monitor until Mavel’s twisted, limping shadow finally melted into the dense red fog. He was completely out of sight now.I turned off the microphone, took a slow breath, and stepped away from the security console. Walking back toward the center of the fortress, I found Razor standing near the heavy steel pillars. He was taking his time, his sharp eyes slowly scanning the high concrete ceiling, the reinforced blast doors, and the rows of heavy supply crates stacked against the wall."Nice place you got here," Razor remarked, his voice echoing softly against the cold stone.Rex gave a low, uncertain grumble as Razor approached, his dark ears pinned back. But instead of pulling away, Razor slowly crouched down, bringing his massive frame low to the ground. He extended a broad, calloused hand toward the dog. Rex sniffed his fingers, let out a tiny, reluctant whine in protest, and then gave Razor's palm a small, soft lick.I stared in disbelief. Rex didn't take to str

    BrownRazor dropped down from the high rock with a quiet thud, landing firmly on the wet gravel and stepped right beside me. Up close, his big frame cast a huge shadow that completely blocked out the two weaklings standing in the mud.The moment he stepped into the light red drizzle, Mavel and Ginger instantly took a few big steps back, their eyes wide with fear and caution."Who the hell are you?" Mavel barked, his pitch-black eyes glaring up at Razor. "What are you doing here?"Razor didn't even blink. He adjusted the strap on his heavy tactical vest, keeping his voice low and cold. "That’s none of your business. In fact, I should be the one asking who you two are, and why you’re trying to jump a woman at her own gate.""It’s none of your business either!" Mavel yelled back, trying to puff out his chest like a tough guy even though Razor was way bigger than him. "Get out of here! Brown is my girlfriend!"I let out a cold, sharp laugh, stepping slightly out from behind Razor's back.

    ~Brown~I turned off my heavy truck's engine, unlatched the door, and stepped down into the light red drizzle. My boots sank into the damp gravel, and my right hand rested heavily on the holstered gun at my hip. Before I could even take two steps toward the bunker's security panel, a rustle echoed from the tree line. Two soaking-wet figures came scrambling out from behind a jagged rock near my perimeter fence. They were caked in red mud, their clothes torn, breathing so hard their chests heaved in the cool air.It was Mavel and Ginger. They had clearly been lurking in the shadows, shivering in the drizzle while waiting for my truck to show up."Brown! Oh my god, Brown, we finally found you!" Mavel shouted, staggering toward me with a desperate, frantic look on his face. "We’ve been waiting out here in the cold for hours! Please, you have to let us in! Look at what's happening out there—people in the city are tearing each other apart and eating human flesh! If you leave us out here in

    ~ Brown~I sank into a deep, heavy sleep the moment my head hit the mattress. The frantic packing, the endless driving, and the brutal fight in the red drizzle had drained every single drop of energy from my body.When I finally opened my eyes, the bunker room was quiet except for the hum of the generator. My muscles still felt sore. I looked down at the floor beside the wooden bed where I had been sleeping and noticed heavy dirt marks and red mud tracks dried on the concrete floor from my tactical boots.The moment I sat up, Rex lifted his big head from his paws and woke up right away, his ears perking up to watch me."Good boy, Rex," I muttered softly, rubbing my tired eyes.I stood up and walked into the bathroom to take a quick, hot shower and wash off the grime. Standing in front of the mirror, I reached out to unclip my shirt collar, and my hand automatically went to my collarbone.My fingers touched bare skin.My heart instantly stopped. My eyes went wide in the mirror as panic

  • Apocalypse Rebirth: Here Comes The Last Cure.    Chapter 15: The Escape and the Cure

    Marvel"Mavel... oh god, Mavel, what are we going to do?" Ginger panted, pressing her back hard against the cold bars of our cell. Her chest was moving up and down fast, and her eyes were wide with total panic. "Listen to them out there! They're screaming! Everyone is screaming!""Shut up and let me think!" I snapped at her, gritting my teeth as I tried to move my bad leg. A sharp, burning pain shot all the way up to my hip, but I forced myself to sit up straight. I stared at the locked iron door, my eyes cold and sharp. "I am not going to sit in this stupid cage and wait to get bitten. We are getting out of here."Outside our cell, the whole police station was in pure chaos. Loud sirens were blowing nonstop from the street, and heavy gunshots echoed down the hall, followed by scary, unnatural screams.Suddenly, the heavy iron door at the end of the hallway burst open. A police officer stumbled inside. His face was pale as a bedsheet, and his hands were shaking so badly he could barel
