The Last Antidote Chapter 11
Blood sprayed as Spencer froze, then turned and ran.He didn't get far. Three zombies surrounded him, forcing him back against a crumbling wall.He aimed his empty gun at the zombies and pulled the trigger again and again, but all he got were a series of empty clicks.The zombies lunged at him, and I turned away."Should we log this?" the officer in the front passenger seat asked."No. Keep moving."We drove on, leaving the screams and bloodshed behind.That evening, Louis came to see me."We heard from the North District settlement. They treated 30 people with the serum, and 29 recovered completely. "The infection was too advanced in the last patient. We couldn't save him, but he didn't turn.""That's good news.""There's more." He met my eyes. "The research team developed a vaccine from your antibodies. They project that a single dose will provide complete immunity for at least five years."I went still."You know what this means?" His eyes shone."We can finally put a

Frank approached with his eyes down. "Gemma, I'm sorry. I should've said something. I was too scared.""And now?"He nodded. "Now I know better. Some people aren't worth following."I patted his shoulder. "Get in."We were about to pull out when Spencer ran over and caught my arm."Gemma, please. Take me with you."I looked at his hand on my arm. Once, I trusted him more than anyone. Now, I couldn't stand his touch."Let go."He held on, tears running down his face. "I was wrong. I know that now. "Just give me another chance. One more. Please."I pulled free. "You had your chances, Spencer. "The first time, you gave the antidote to someone else because you said you couldn't play favorites."The second time, you gave me a useless inhibitor and expected me to accept the same excuse. "The third time, you threw me out and called it protecting the squad."I met his eyes. "Three strikes. We're done."His knees buckled, and he sank to the ground, sobbing.Nora reached dow

Spencer's face brightened.Then Nora rushed out of the mall. She took one look at me and went pale."G-Gemma? You're... alive?"I looked at her. She stumbled back a couple of steps and nearly fell."Yup. Sorry to disappoint you.""No, I thought..." She shook her head and ducked behind Spencer. "Spencer, how is she..."He stepped in front of her without thinking, then faced me."Gemma, I'm sorry about what happened. But I didn't have a choice. I had to think about everyone...""I know. You couldn't play favorites."His face went white."Well, that won't be a problem anymore. I'm not in your squad. You don't have to worry about giving me special treatment."I turned to Louis. "What's the process for letting people in?"He glanced between us. "We take in survivors who agree to follow our rules, but supplies are limited. Everyone has to be screened.""Then screen them.""Gemma, come on," Spencer said anxiously. "After everything we—""That's over." I held his gaze. "It ended

"You're going?" Louis asked.I picked up a modified rifle and checked the magazine. "I'm not going to save him.""Then why go?""To watch." I slid the magazine into place with practiced ease. "And settle a score."-Our convoy raced through the ruins.Louis led the mission himself, bringing 20 elite fighters with supernatural abilities and the best equipment available.I rode in the front passenger seat of the lead vehicle, watching ruined buildings flash past.Since the grayish-white veins disappeared, my vision was sharper than ever.I could see maggots writhing in a zombie's eye socket 300 yards away. Even the tiny weeds poking through cracks in the rubble stood out.Farther ahead, a column of black smoke rose over the buildings, marking the fighting."Just over a mile out," the driver said.I tightened my grip on the rifle.Twenty minutes later, we reached the edge of the battle.Spencer's squad was in bad shape. Of the 40-plus people under his command, fewer than 20
The Last Antidote Chapter 7
Craig looked at me. "The antibody levels in your blood are 300 times higher than those of an ordinary survivor, and your body keeps making more. Do you understand what that means?""What?"Craig's eyes lit up. "We can mass-produce a serum." "It's an actual treatment, not something that just buys people time. It could clear the virus within 24 hours in mild cases, allowing patients to recover completely. In severe cases, it could stop the infection from progressing."Louis stood beside me. "We'll need regular blood samples and your participation in testing. But it's your choice."I looked at him. "What if I say no?"His voice remained calm. "We'll respect that."If you agree, though, we could have the first batch ready in three months. Within a year, we could start distributing it on a large scale."I closed my eyes. In three months, we could have a treatment. In a year, it could reach people everywhere.I remembered the day the apocalypse began. The city fell apart around us,
The Last Antidote Chapter 6
I woke up in a clean hospital bed. Sunlight streamed through the window, and the air carried a faint smell of disinfectant.Somehow, I was still alive.I sat up abruptly and checked my arms. The grayish-white veins were gone. My skin had healed without a trace, leaving it smoother and tougher than before.I clenched my fists, and power surged through me.My abilities hadn't just returned. They had evolved."You're awake."I looked toward the doorway. A tall, solidly built man stood there in a plain combat uniform.His dark hair was cropped short, and his sharp, handsome face held an alert expression. His eyes seemed to take in everything.Two guards waited behind him. He waved them away, then came inside."I'm Louis Dalton." He took the chair beside my bed. "You're in the Twilight Safe Zone. I run this place."I knew the name. Three years into the apocalypse, Twilight was the largest, safest settlement anyone knew of.People said it had advanced defenses, plenty of food, and
