All Chapters of Project Dakota: Rising of the dead: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

‎My name is Emily Moss Dakota. I am a scientist who loves her job so damn much. People sometimes claim I do crazy stuff but I say I love to make the impossible possible. ‎I've been in this field for over thirty years and I've aided in a lot of disease solving cases in the world. ‎Well, presently I'm working on a project that could either end my career or make me the most important scientist the world has ever seen. ‎Project Dakota is my baby. The project I put my life on the line for and let's face it it is my life. ‎Presently, I'm in my lab where I have been for three days trying to make this project work at all cost. ‎The Damn tap kept dripping at I tried to concentrate which was fucking with my mental. Moving and calculating on caffeine for three days isn't making things any better. ‎Sighing, I tapped my pen anxiously on the table. The sound kept getting to me accompanied by the loud cling sound the clock made. ‎"Fuck!!!" I yelled as I slammed my journal shut. I go on m

The ten-minute drive to St. Jude’s Memorial Hospital stretched into a lurid, slow-motion nightmare, each second thick with a dread that was rapidly solidifying into a new, terrifying reality. The world outside the windshield wasn't just chaotic; it was unraveling at the seams, and our beat-up sedan felt like the last flimsy capsule of normalcy, hurtling through a landscape descending into hell. The ride was agonizingly bumpy, not from potholes, but from the debris scattering the road—a discarded suitcase, a shattered plant pot, a single high-heeled shoe lying on its side. Every jolt sent a fresh wave of agony through Gary, who was slumped in the backseat, his breathing a wet, ragged thing. I gripped the steering wheel until my knuckles turned bone-white, my focus divided between the treacherous path ahead and the rearview mirror, where Gary’s ashen face was a ghostly smudge. Cars screamed past us, not with the orderly panic of a city-wide emergency, but with the feral desperation of

The place was very noisy which was getting really annoying. Like too annoying."We should've stayed in the hotel" I scoffed as I adjusted myself on the floor. "Yeah right... We would've ran out of food and supplies " Elise said and she was making so much sense it was getting more annoying."If you keep staring at them you'll definitely freak them out" Jake said which made my heart nearly leave my body because of how close he was to me. "I'm just looking at thier faces Incase one of them looks sick yunno" I shrugged "Yeah well you have to me more worried about getting robbed, raped, kidna..." "Hey ! Thanks alot I feel so much better now"I rolled my eyes and he chuckled. I watched as the workers passed around food in plastic bags for us to eat and my stomach grumbled happily "You must be really hungry" Elise said beside me "I'm so hungry too" "Yeah.... I'm really hungry" I took the plastic bag from the worker and thanks her as I opened it. There was a bottle of water ,a sandwich,

"we don't want any trouble " Lester said as he turned and looked at me. I shifter nervously as I tired my best not to talk. I mean there's a gun to my head. "I don't want any trouble either so do not move" the man said."What did you do to the others" Lester asked. "What others?" The man said looking very confused. "It's only you guys I saw so far" he said. "Names". The man demanded. He's really strict."My name is Ethel and this is Lester" I said looking from the man to Lester."we really mean no harm. We actually came here to get some supplies" The man eyed us thoroughly before he lowered the gun."Be careful where you walk into" the man said and I nodded. "We are really sorry we didn't know someone was in here" Lester said damn I was still shaking. "Well I'll strike a deal" the man cracked a smile and I gulped. I hate deals. " What deal"Lester looked confused."You'll take us with you" what?"What?" Yes I think he read my mind there "we don't have a destination" Lester said a

"I miss mom" Elsie said as she leaned her head on my shoulder. She helped me clean my healing wound and we were in our room just staring at the world. With no TV, and quarantined in a house with a bunch of strangers teaching you how to shoot guns and survive on deer and rabbits, trust me you'll stare at the wall at your leisure time. "I miss her too El and I also miss dad" she shrugged as she fell on the bed. " Whatever" she sighed "You still hate the man?" I chuckled as I laid down beside her. " We both know you hate him too" "Well.... I don't make it so obvious " "Well I'm sorry if his presence makes me want to puke""You're so dramatic " I laughed and she laughed with me."It's been so long since I've cracked a smile" she took a deep breath."I know right.... It's been so long" I looked at the ceiling damn... If we keep going like this we'll definitely loose our minds."Do you ever think of looking for a cell booth and contact mom?" Elise asked "You know that's impossible "
