บททั้งหมดของ Rewrite the Apocalypse Dream : บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

"We actually made it," Jolie sighed, leaning her head back against the seat. "No syndicates, no kidnappers, no—"Jolie froze, her jaw dropping slightly as her eyes locked onto the main concourse walkway leading toward their gate. She subtly nudged Joanna’s shoulder with her elbow."Okay, wow," Jolie whispered, a playful, appreciative grin spreading across her face. "Don't look now, but your new disciples have arrived. And holy smokes, Joanna... you didn't mention he looked like that in the daylight."Joanna followed her gaze. Walking toward them through the crowd was Jake. He was carrying a sleek, heavy-duty tactical duffel bag over one shoulder, but even under a casual black jacket, his massive, athletic frame was completely undeniable. He moved with an effortless, protective stride, his eyes sharp and constantly sweeping the surrounding terminal for threats. Right beside him, holding his hand, was Raven, looking warm, completely safe, and infinitely better rested than she had the ni

"We should give one of the pickup trucks to Jake for the time being," Joanna decided firmly. "He needs a reliable, heavy-duty vehicle to move Raven around safely, and he can’t have paperwork on his identity around Aurora. It draws too much attention. A local, unmarked truck fits his build and keeps him completely under the radar."Jolie nodded in complete agreement, a subtle smirk playing on her lips. "I completely agree. Plus, seeing him behind the wheel of a massive truck? Highly approved. I'll get the spare key fob ready so I can hand them over at dinner."Promptly at 6:30 PM, the doorbell rang.Joanna opened it to find Jake and Raven standing in the hallway. Raven had fully dried her hair and wore clean, matching gray pajamas, looking safe and relaxed. Jake had changed into a dark, fitted t-shirt that accentuated his heavy, muscular frame."Come on in," Joanna said, stepping aside. "The food literally just arrived."The rich, savory aroma of grilled steaks, baked pasta, and fresh

She leaned back in her chair, checking to ensure Jolie and Raven were still completely engrossed in the television in the next room. Then, she turned her full attention back to Jake."I have a secret, Jake. It’s the real reason I can store thousands of pounds of fresh produce and heavy equipment without anyone noticing," she whispered. "I possess an independent storage space. An isolated pocket dimension that travels with me, completely separate from our reality. Time doesn't move inside it, meaning food stays boiling hot or perfectly fresh forever, and its carrying capacity is virtually limitless."Jake’s brow furrowed, a faint, skeptical shadow passing over his face. "An independent space? Joanna, I believe your dreams, but that sounds like—""Watch," Joanna interrupted smoothly.She held her right hand flat over the empty space between them on the wooden table. She closed her eyes for a split second, pulling a thread of her consciousness inward toward the bubble of her upgraded dim

Jake reviewed the blueprints on his screen, his finger tracing the layout before he looked up at her. "The structural framing is solid, but if we're burying these, we need to maximize the interior footprint. If we shift the medical bays to the center bulkhead and use recessed, fold-down bunks instead of fixed frames, we can fit twice the ammunition and give ourselves a wider clearing for emergency medical procedures."Joanna nodded approvingly, impressed by his spatial efficiency. "Perfect adjustment. Make the changes with the foreman. I want the fabrication team rolling on the welding first thing tomorrow morning.""Consider it done," Jake said, locking his phone and sliding it into his pocket. "I’ll stay on-site and ensure every weld is military-grade."With the logistics locked down and the blueprint strategy finalized, they pulled the heavy security doors closed and left the warehouse, ready to weaponize the remaining three months left on the clock.The next morning, Joanna met wi

Joanna then turned her full attention back to Raven, her expression softening. "And there's something else we need to preserve. After the apocalypse, the internet will crash, satellites will fail, and all the digital movies, music, and books we take for granted will be lost forever. We're going to need a way to keep our sanity during the dark nights."With a sudden wave of her hand, a large, heavy plastic storage bin materialized right on top of the kitchen table with a dull thud. Jake and Raven both leaned closer as Joanna popped the heavy latches and opened the lid. Inside sat dozens of new, high-capacity portable solid-state drives and external storage networks."I bought these right before we left Felton," Joanna explained. "Raven, I want you and Jolie to spend your evenings working on a data heist. Start downloading everything you can get your hands on. Fill these drives with classic movies, every season of your favorite TV shows, cartoons, and a massive library of digital books
