Thirty-first Run

The group cautiously moved through the dimly lit corridors of the university, each step accompanied by the ominous sounds of their steps in the building. Luckily, it wasn't as loud as it is, or else they might have invited trouble. Suddenly, the atmosphere was shattered as a horde of mindless creatures on the second floor lost their footing and tumbled down the stairs, crashing right in front of the group. Hannah and Liam couldn't help but gasp, and their jaws dropped.Reacting swiftly, Brandon summoned his metal and wind abilities. Metal blades swirled around him, slicing through the air, while gusts of wind sent the fallen creatures stumbling backward. Marcky, not one to be left behind, unleashed bolts of purple lightning, each strike finding its mark with deadly precision.Liam, being with military personnel, developed his alertness much better than before. He could finally move, almost as soon as he got over the shock.Meanwhile, Hannah, on the other hand, realized the limitations

Thirty-second Run

Liam shook his head. "No, but his classmates are there. Some of them were close to him."Brandon saw fear as well as relief in Liam's eyes. So, he only nodded his head. The team moved swiftly, coordinating their attacks to eliminate the creatures without drawing too much attention. Brandon's metal ability and Marcky's purple lightning proved to be a formidable combination. They did not let Hannah move around, even though she had already said many times that she was already healed and fine. Even Liam, who healed her, said she should just take it easy for a day. Tomorrow, she can do whatever she wants.Since they were all ganging up to go after her, she couldn't help but give them a glare. She couldn't do anything, and they wouldn't let her do anything.As the last creature fell, Liam approached Jarvis's desk. He knew he was sitting there because Jarvis told him where his desk was. He sifted through the papers and found a notebook with familiar handwriting. He bit his lips as he saw it.

Liam's eyes widened as he realized what he just said. He panicked and looked at his brother, unable to form a word."Babe, calm down. Breath in, breathe out."Jarvis stared at Liam and Brandon. He watched as the man tried to make his brother calm. It was impossible for them to calm Liam since he could calm down after he finally got out of the shock or embarrassment, but this man beside his brother could make him calm."Your lover is here, and I am here, but you have no intention of introducing me or him to each other?" Jarvis started, giving his brother a playful smile.Of course, he doesn't want his brother to get hurt. He knows, no, they knew his orientation, and it has nothing to do with them; it wasn't their business. No matter what, he is family. If someone tried to bully him just because he likes me, then he'd be ready to punch those people in the face."Oh! Right!" A realization dawned on him. He hadn't properly introduced his companions and lover to his younger brother.He cas

Thirty-fourth Run

In the storage room, in order not to attract attention from those mindless creatures that could see better in the dark, they did not turn the lights on. The only thing they could see was darkness. Even though there's a little light from the moon, it wasn't strong enough to illuminate the inside of the storage room.As Jarvis stirred from sleep, his eyes adjusted to the darkness, and he spotted Brandon sitting by the entrance, a silent guardian in the night. He could still vividly remember how his brother tried to pursue Brandon to be the guard at night with him, but Brandon flatly refused, telling him to go and rest.This is the first time he saw Bradon stir his face toward his brother. If it was from the others, his brother will surely knock them off.Cautious and protective, Jarvis approached Brandon; his steps were light, and he did not wake Liam, who was lying down and sleeping not far from Brandon.Jarvis then sat down beside Brandon, and his voice was a whisper in the quiet plac

Thirty-fifth Run

As Liam and the group exited the university gate after who knows how many battles, they encountered a cluster of seven survivors. Six were students, and one, unmistakably a professor, stood among them. They were about to ignore them, but they did not let them pass through. Jarvis's presence immediately caught the attention of the student leader, who wasted no time mocking and belittling him for past grievances.Liam's expression tightened and his jaw clenched, but he refrained from responding. He wanted to punch this man for mocking his brother, but he refrained himself. After all, he doesn't want to make a noise; he doesn't want to trouble people with him. He had troubled them enough when he wanted to find his brother. Right now, he is with him; he doesn't want to cause trouble again.However, matters took an unsettling turn when one of the female students in the group seemed to take a liking to Brandon. This made Liam's heart grow numb and cold. Her advances were not only unwarrante

Thirty-sixth Run

As night fell, they decided it was best to spend the night within the safety of the store. They didn't want to go and drive their vehicles at night because it was more dangerous than staying in the store. Brandon, feeling refreshed after his bath, volunteered to take the first shift on guard duty along with Liam.Well, Brandon doesn't want to, but he couldn't help. His lover wants to guard with him; what could he do? He could only agree.The interior of the store was dimly lit by emergency lights, casting the group's long shadows across the aisles. It was great that the light couldn't be seen from the outside because there's no window near them and the door was closed. Liam and Brandon found a quiet corner, away from the others who were settling down for the night.Liam, who is glancing around, started to feel a little off. "Feels strange, doesn't it?" He glanced towards his lover. He saw him looking at him as well. "No mindless creatures in sight; a peaceful night—almost too peaceful

Thirty-seventh Run

The second floor of the abandoned store that they built as a shelter from the unsettling black rain that fell outside. Even though they kind of relaxed, they couldn't still shrug off the unsettling feeling they felt. Thus, they were half relaxed and half alert. There's no problem with being cautious while relaxing for a little. The trio, Brandon, Hannah, and Marcky, were still crowded together around the table and continued their conversation about the government's failed experiment. The dimly lit room provided a stark contrast to the ominous darkness beyond the windows.The dark black-ink rain outside makes their conversation even more creepy and eerie.As Jarvis heard the conversation, he joined the group, and the creaking of the floor as they moved around echoed in the quiet room. Having Jarvis with them makes the thing even more heavy, as does their conversation. The way they whispered as they talked makes them look like a group of people planning to kill someone. With this though

Thirty-eighth Run [ S P G ]

Brandon nodded appreciatively, but before he could say anything, Jarvis added, "And big brother, don't even think about suggesting that I wait in some safe zone. We're in this together."Liam chuckled, "Fair enough, my younger brother. We stick together," nodding his head with satisfaction.Of course, he wanted his brother to be safe, but he doesn't like it when Jarvis isn't with him.Hannah and Marcky exchanged glances. Hannah spoke up, "We're with you guys too. We've been through a lot together, and I'm not about to split up now." She shrugged her shoulders. "Besides, I'm not keen on heading to some unknown safe zone with people we don't know."Marcky nodded in agreement. "Yeah, we trust you guys. Let's get to the bottom of this mess together."Brandon, moved by the loyalty and unity of the group, gave a determined nod. "Alright, then." His gaze shifted from his lover, Liam, towards his brother-in-law, Jarvis, to his cousin, Hannah, and to his brother-in-law, Marcky. "We go to Baoye

Thirty-ninth Run

Brandon, with a loving smile, took care to ensure Liam was comfortable. Well, it was his duty as Liam's loving partner, and no matter what, he'll take care of him. He gently pulled the blanket up to cover Liam, tucking him in with a soft touch. The air was filled with a sense of intimacy and vulnerability as Brandon admired the man he cared so deeply for.Satisfied that Liam was settled, Brandon got up from the bed and fetched a damp towel. Returning to Liam's side, he carefully wiped away any residual traces of their shared experience, ensuring Liam felt clean and cared for. The act was one of tenderness, a silent expression of the deeper connection between them.As Brandon finished, he gazed at Liam with affection, admiring the peaceful sleep that now enveloped him. The room was a sanctuary, and in the quiet moments that followed, Brandon took a deep breath, cherishing the intimacy they had shared and the comforting presence of the one he loved.When the morning arrived, the relentle

Fortieth Run

In the common room on the second floor of the store, they made it a sanctuary for a moment, and their eyes were full of anticipation. Liam, Brandon, Jarvis, Hannah, and Marcky are all packing their things to get out of that place. They've been stuck on the second floor of the store for seven days.Seven days of talking about how they could go and get inside the Baoye's place without getting any unnecessary attention.The black ink-like rain had finally ceased, leaving behind black ink-like water on the ground. The group was eager to get out of the store and to explore the world again.They looked at each other, and each eye was telling them that they were ready to get out of the place they'd been for seven days.Liam stood straight; he is the one in charge of addressing the group: "Alright, everyone, let's pack up and get ready to go." Satisfaction was visible in his eyes as well. "We've been cooped up here for too long, and it's time to see what's happening outside," he added.Brando
