My life started like any other person, I was raised by a single mother with 3 brothers we lived in a council house and had to live of benefits ,it was hard but are mom did the most in life gave us everything we wished for food was on the table and we had good clothes, not the branded stuff and when we were bulled for it she told us to fight to be stronger than them to beat them down to they submit but also told us never to be arrogant. That face is not right that we must use power for protecting and we are no better than them that was the way.
On the 18 of December she was diagnosed with cancer she fought it and won but she was never the same. On my 17 birthday it happened I went with my mates on to Dartmoor to drink and party to get high as fuck and sesh till I pass out that was the day it happened they came monsters and this is my story.
As I wake up head pulsing from the hangover I look over the moors the quiet was beautiful as I stare in to the hills “better get everyone up” moving to the camp fire I reignite the charcoal and put water in the pot waiting for it to boil. “Wake up cunts” I shouted in the tent “fuck off” I got back good there up I thought.
Starring in to the fire as I put a tea bag in the water and dig into some breakfast bars and left over sweets it’s a good day I thought sipping the hot tea “ahhh” needed that now we’re the pain killers struggling through my bag I find them without a thought they were down my throat finishing my breakfast bars I look into the tent again “ come on I need to get home for work” “fine go then see ya I need more sleep “ useless twat well fine packing the stuff away. “You can clean up” saying that I left to home praying my mum is not awake. moving down the Rocky track on my way home I pass a farmer cottage blood streaming against the wall forming a small red puddle Down the side of the building “da fuck “ “hey anyone there are you hurt if have medical training “ a shallow groan passed through the door and I panicked not going to lie I nearly shat my self look into for anything there was a shovel next to the car “this better be the fucking acid I’m not dealing with this bull shit if it’s a zombie apocalypse better be a fucking game I swear to God “r using the shovel I open the door and a body hits a floor still fucking groaning “fuck me and fuck you!” As I smashed the shovel over the fucking things head apart like a melon “weak I know for a fact that a head is harder the fuck is going on”
As I grab the handle of the shovel one boot on the body I pull the shovel out of its skull bits Of don’t want to talk about with it “so fuck this shit im out “saying my peace I enter the home. Let’s get comfy so let’s get on the sofa . After sitting down for a minute I try to keep calm I just killed a man I rammed a shovel in his skull and sat on his sofa.
(Unknown)“stop being a little bitch get use to it it’s just a lv1 mob a lesser zombie, god new worlds suck”
“Who said that what do you mean mob and what about new worlds”
(Unknown)“K so listen retard the world is changing im in charge of this area and as I’m so kind I’ll tell you what happens now the world is filling up with manna and qi” after it said that I have a confused look “no the world always had them but not a lot but it’s more abundant now and the zombie is caused by manna poisoning his body had no affiliation to manna so he’s dead you on the other hand are weird affinity with manna and qi odd you sir are the lucky 15% of the world and your not vomiting blood and shit odd indeed. So yes world changing and you are stronger than you was. The qi is seeping into your body making you stronger than average look into that on your own. Oh and as you gain strength you can do what ever you want might makes right I’ve dropped some other worlders around and monsters will appear so good luck with that. So as you are the first person to kill a zombie in my region have a weapon what you want”
With a thought i asked for a staff as if it was natural “staff”
(Unknown) “Fine a staff it is And item bag”
Picking up the item bag so if I think what I think this is so cool I said to my self
(Unknown) “It tally’s by weight it can hold 25kg with ease you won’t feel the weight and the staff has a buff attached to it but the item stot empty so you need a crystal or magic item like a manna core”
If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.
“So everything that’s is real and not is somewhat real manna can make anything happen any other questions?”
“So how’s my friend I left him at the campsite is he dead”
(Unknown) “Ohm yer he’s dead he didn’t have a good connection to the elements for qi or the acceptance of mana so he’s like farmer Jon out there” saying that with a flat tone
“he’s dead oh god no is” saying those words I fell of the sofa crying with endless tears as
“Whack”
As I’m thrown across the room by a huge force smashing in to the wall blood trickling down my face as a gash opens on my face “ Jacob is that you”
As the words left my mouth tears in my eyes the words pop up over my head
<5hp>
(Unknown)“Oh look it’s your friend looks to me it is more powerful than the other you killed a true zombie don’t get bit now or you turn and please be entertaining”
Shocked at seeing my friend like this hollow in the eyes slowly staggering towards me biting at the air craving my flesh ”forgive me Jacob but I will bring you piece and end your suffering”
Grabbing the staff I focus if I have Qi I can channel it into my staff like the novels online readying my self energy course through my body into the staff I feel one with it, striking out at the zombie and beat it’s side as it’s chest caves in and is flight away smashing into the TV stand as the body flops to the floor knocking the TV off and smashing on the zombies head.
What now dropping to my knees I start to hyperventilating crying non stops I curl in to a ball wishing I was some were else I always wished for something like this to happen but not like this, not like this.
I was crying till the afternoon the voice who explained stuff to me fucked off after I killed Jacob only the eerie silence to keep me company walking outside I grab the shovel and walk to the garden digging out a 6 foot trench I circulated My Qi my body increasing my strength as I pull the deer and please it at the side after the whole was big enough I placed the farmers corpse and covers it I then repeated to dig another 6ft trench for Jacob as I finish digging the grave I moved to Jacobs body touching the body to options came into my mind dismantle and ignore, tempted by the loot I could get I feel disgusted with myself how could I think like that he was my friend we went through thick and thin he deserves a honourable funeral picking up his body I gentle place his body inside and start throwing soil on his body covering the monsters that was my friend as I finished burying him I take an knee emotions well up as I start to speak my peace “Jacob my friend you were family to me you helped me in times of need and did not pick on me because of my disability I swear if I find your sister I will help her out I don’t know how to tell her about you if she is alive but I know in my heart that I will always remember you as your were not what you became by the gods that are there to hear my bless this vessel soul so he may live a better life a far life unlike the one you have taken.”
After saying my peace I go back inside the cottage and see what there is to eat the system did warn me about night and it’s 5pm now so I might as well spend the night closing the door I push the book shelf against the door to stop anything that might just try coming in after that I moved to the windows covering them us as well good thing there was only 2 a bathroom witch was tiny and the kitchen window boarding them up with the TV stand. Looking at my handy work I sit on a chair in the kitchen wiping my forehead “its been a hard day I wonder what’s to eat”
Sorting through the cupboards and fridge I find 4 pints of milk a lot of mutton and vegetables like potato carrots and tomatoes and a leak “jess it’s stew tonight I hate tomatoes” putting the a large pot on the stove I place a large pot on the stove and wait for it to boil as I start to chop the vegetables into chucks and leaving them to the side waiting for the pot to roiling boil going to the cupboard I find all sorts eggs, bread, pasta, flour, sugar, caned foods and some chocolate and I mean quite a lot I wonder if he has a tobacco” as I move back to the pot dropping all the vegetables in and getting a pan out to fry the mutton frying the meat I add herbs and a bit of curry powder adding a stock cube in all Vola 20 minutes later and I got me a hot meal.
As I finished eating I sit down get my bag and pull my bong out “im out of weed but I have some tobacco left” as he starts to inhale peace to him over as his stress from the day left him.
It was just turning dark and as the sun set over the hills of Dartmoor the screams and roaring of beasts, started as the world lost the night “sweet dreams” as his body let’s on the soft eyes closed wishing the day to end but this was only the beginning.
