GAME SHOW GONE BAD
"For your 25, 000-dollar question, what is the name of the plant that could turn the one who devoured them into some sort of zombie and control its minds???"
A. Ophiocordyceps
B. Wolf's Bane
C. Pigweed
or
D. Resurrecting Plant
The bald game show master asked Abby. His extremely white teeth made a great contrast with his dark skin as he smiled at her.
Abby at the moment was playing as a contestant at what seemed to be a game show where one would have to answer some questions that were prepared beforehand.
Rewards were also decided prior to the start of the game and every correct answer would allow the player to get a specific amount of money.
"Was there really a plant capable of doing that? FOR REAL?!!!"
Abby asked the game master in return.
"Yes, dear. And you have to get the right answer for you to get the price. Or else, you would go home with nothing."
The other party replied.
"Hmm... I really don't have any idea about this one. But I have to bet against the odds... Alright! I'll choose, letter D. Resurrecting Plant."
Abby made her mind and gave her answer to the host with her fingers crossed.
"Is that your final answer??!!!"
The host asked her back to make it official.
"FINAL ANSWER!"
She replied with conviction on her voice but her hands were almost shaking already at that time. Actually, Abby was not too sure about it either, but she could the only hope for the best.
After all, she somehow had a basis for choosing that answer.
Abby had once watched on Netflix and saw this show, 'THE KINGDOM'. It was actually a Korean drama set on the Joseon Dynasty and it was about a zombie apocalypse.
Throughout the story, it was revealed that the zombie outbreak originated from a plant named, RESURRECTING PLANT. That was the reason why Abby chose that answer, in the first place
"FOR THE $25,000- QUESTION.... the answer is------"
'TIP! TOP!'
Out of nowhere the pattering of the rain reverberated in the entire studio. The host looked above them to check the ceiling and so Abby did the same as well.
'TOINK!'
A small droplet of water fell straight on Abby's face.
"Err?? Why was it raining inside??? Surely, this studio comes with a roof, right? Was there a leakage on the roof? TSS... Poor maintenance."
As Abby was evaluating the poor maintenance of the studio, she failed to notice that everyone around her including the host was already panicking.
They were running around the stage like headless chickens!
"HEY? What was going on? What was with the panic? It was just a tiny drop of water???"
Abby asked in confusion but no one had the luxury of time to answer her question as they were all busy saving their own ass so she ran after the game master and asked him directly instead.
" Wait, sir! How about my answer? Did I get it right???"
Of course, there was money involved here!
She could not just leave it just like that as if it was nothing.
"What are you even thinking?! We all gonna die!!! We have to get out of here. We have to evacuate ourselves as soon as possible. Save yourself!"
"Errr????"
'Aren't they overreacting????'
Abby thought to herself as she watched the exaggerated reaction of everyone around her. But when she looked at her feet, she realized that the water level was swiftly increasing.
The water reached her neck in no time!
"NO! WAIT! What was happening?! I don't know how to swim! Was it not just a drop of water! Ho------- ummmmmmm"
Abby had no idea how things suddenly ended that way. She really did not expect this of turned of event.
It supposed to be just normal rain and only a few drops of water were falling from the ceiling and yet in just a minute, the water level already reached that high??!
As she did not know how to swim, Abby eventually found herself drifting further down the deepest part of the water while the water level itself continued to increase and reached the ceiling
SOMETHING WAS DEFINITELY NOT RIGHT HERE
"Is this how am I going to die???? Goodbye, my $25,000."
That was all Abby managed to say before she closed her eyes and oblivion took over her.
But the next second, she opened her eyes again, Abby found herself lying on the comfort of her own bed!
The roof above her was dripping water straight to her face because she forgot to fix its holes.
It was raining outside.
"So it was just a dream after all..."
She said as she heaved a sigh of relief.

This is the day that I have been waiting for."She said as she bolted up straight from her bed.Without even bothering to wash her face or at least combed her hair and fix its hot mess, Abby immediately ran towards her door.But to her surprise, the door seemed lock from the outside! And no matter how hard she tried to push nor heave the door, it just simply would not budge.That was when Abby started to had a bad feeling."What was wrong with this door?!! Hey!

Did they run away from home???"When this thought crossed Abby's mind, she started to break into a cold sweat and so without wasting another minute of her time, she took a pair of slippers and immediately dashed to the road.To her haste, she no longer noticed that the pair of slippers that she was wearing were mismatched.The road was still wet due fro the previous rain and while Abby was running along with the traffic, a car that passed by her accidentally splashed water towards her direction."HOLY SHEEP!!!"&n
My Master is a Boy-witch   STRANGE OLD MAN
As Abby made her way back to their house, she could not help but notice how the route seemed to become farther than it previously was.She felt as though she spent a long time walking back home compared to the time that she actually took when she traveled from their house going to the bank.It might sound weird but that was what she could observe so far. Perhaps it was due to the mixture of exhaustion and disappointment that had finally taken a toll on her.But nonetheless, after a while of walking, she still arrived at the front door of their house.The house itself looked exactly the same just like how it was before. The only difference though was that it was now empty.There was no Aunt Sarah to boss her around nor no annoying Mara and Clara sisters to make fun of her.It was only then that everything that happened had finally sunk in at Abby.

Yet her plea only fell on deaf ears."NO! Give me your money or I swear I will make it sure that you will spend the rest of your dear life inside the cell.""Sir, please. I'm begging you. Please give me some time. I'll look for Aunt Sarah and once I found them, we will pay you back right away. If you want even with interest on top of that."Abby bargained but the other party was really a tough nut to crack"NO WAY! I am certain that you are just trying to dope me exactly like how that filthy wench mother of yours had done to me before. If you guys think that I would fall for the same trick again, you are all wrong! HUH! I am not a pushover!"

Where mobile phones, TVs and the internet were not yet part of necessity and people could still function just fine even with the absence of electricity.Everything was exactly how he remembered it.From afar, he saw the flocks of seagulls as they migrated and flew towards the other side of the horizon.

Eugene bolted up straight from his bed and woke up with his face wet with his own tears. He subconsciously touched his necklace as soon as he woke up.It was the same necklace that Miyara wore before her death and it was the only thing that he managed to salvage from her.The blaring sound of his TV played on the background as it was left active while she was drowsing since he unknowingly fell asleep on the sofa while watching his favorite show on Netflix.Looking around him, he also noticed that the sun had already departed and it was already dark outside and so he stood up from his seat and opened the door in his veranda, wide enough to let the cold draft of the night enter his living room.He was just about to step outside the house when a small voice sounded behind him and called him out of the blue."Where are you going, master???"It was his sidekick/ pet, Jorah.Jorah was

Abby did not have an idea of how long she passed out or how did she even manage to reach the riverbank in the first place, knowing that she did not know how to swim.The rain had long gone now but the grasses, as well as the soil below her, were still moist. A black trench coat was wrapped around her body to protect her from the cold night draft.Checking herself for any casualties, Abby heaved a sigh of relief when she found none. She thought that she would really die for good back then but thanks heaven, that she did not.Or did she????When that thought crossed Abby's mind, she immediately checked herself again. This time, however, she deliberately stopped herself from breathing for a minute or two. Only when she felt that her lungs were still desperately craving for oxygen did she confirmed to herself that she was still alive and kicking.
