"Ava? That's a good name. Looks like you're her mother from now on, Marissa. You've got yourself a daughter though you’re barely of age yourself."Marissa, however, did not find anything inappropriate about this. She looked down at Ava with a kind expression on her face. "Poor little Ava. Her mother died right by her side, and all she could do was watch her pass. I'm going to take good care of her from now on and be her mother."Adrian smiled as Marissa doted on the baby girl.The world may not be as beautiful as it used to be but there were still kind humans around. Marissa would not give up on Ava, nor was she going to let her grow up without a mother's love. Thus, Marissa became Ava's mother. ***The group left Bronze City, which Ava was the only survivor of. Adrian was disappointed. He had hoped to find more survivors despite the destruction of the town. Yet, the place had become devoid of humans a long time ago. "Peach Village is ten kilometers ahead. We'll reach there

"How long have you been hiding in the mine?"Whitney, still sobbing, replied, "Almost a month. We hid there since the fourth day of the disaster. The principal was killed on our way there, and so were our teachers. They were killed by the monsters. It's just us students left now." Adrian had not expected such a thing to happen in such a small town. Greenheart High was not too far away from Peach Village, so the villagers here attended that school. News of the sixty-four survivors was the best news Adrian could ever have received. He asked, "What have you all been eating to survive?""There's a fruit orchard taken care of by a rancher nearby, but he vanished. We've been living off of the fruits, but we finished them all a few days ago and have been starving since."Adrian smiled. "You’ve done well, Whitney. I need you to take me to the mine, okay?"Whitney nodded, then commented, "I feel like I've seen you before, sir. You look really familiar…""Is that so?""Oh yeah!" Whitne

Pierre suggested this because he did not wish for everyone to leave the cave and be killed by the monsters. He and Sylas had different opinions.The group split up into three factions. One was a group that sided with Pierre, another one with Sylas. The third group was the ones who were too overwhelmed by their emotions to decide anything. Sylas glared at Pierre and argued, "What makes you think staying here isn't a death sentence? There's nothing else for us to do and nowhere else for us to turn to. Our only chance of survival is by moving forward. Are you seriously too dumb to even realize that?"Pierre retorted, "We won't be able to get far, so for now, we should send out a few people to source for food while the others wait here. After we've found food, we can work our way out of here.""Bullsh*t! This is nuts! Anyone who wants to follow me, come on. I don't care what you guys want to do. I've had enough of this!" Sylas was breaking down from the situation and was letting his f

Pierre nodded in response.Adrian smiled and said, "Rozi, bring out the food and distribute it to everyone."Rozi placed the bags on the ground and crouched down. "Everyone, please form two lines to collect food and water from me."The students excitedly lined up according to Rozi's instructions, but they received less-than-average portions of food and water since there was not that much in Rozi's bags. Nevertheless, this was a welcome relief to them.The students sat down and eagerly began eating their meager portions. Olivia was huddled together with some girl, sitting on the ground with tears streaming down their faces. These young girls in their prime had no makeup on their faces—only dirt and tears.Adrian approached the girls with a towel and gently wiped the dirt and tears from their faces, revealing their beauty underneath. The girls continued to sob.Adrian smiled and comforted them, "You're all young beauties representing Navia. Our lives would become better if you all

"Some of the cities are safe now, and I'll take you all there when I get back."The students became excited when they heard this.Pierre said, "We'll be waiting right here for you, sir. Please come back for us.""Of course. I will never leave you all here. Don't worry.""By the way, if you're going to look for Grandpa Crutcher, he lives in a hut in the deepest parts of this village. Although I don't think he's there anymore," Pierre added. "Okay, I'll go look for him there. Does he have any family?" Pierre shook his head. "No, he doesn’t. You can try looking around the village, but I don't know much.""Okay, wait for me here. Do not leave this mine unless you all run into something dangerous. If that happens, find a way to leave behind markings so that I know where to find you."The crowd nodded, and Adrian’s little group left the mine. About half an hour later, they arrived at Peach Village. They were greeted by corpses and dead silence. Most of the bodies were carrying ba
