Urgh.. I feel so damn typsy right now that it feels like I am hungover... Well it seems like the inheritance worked, Considering the fact I can feel my body, Well new body I should say. i open my eyes and the first thing that I notice is that it is FREAKING BRIGHT! Oh my god! Being in that dark space then coming back here clearly messed with my perception... Yooo. Pha? You there?
Hm. I think you should check your body, Yeah? Like, Look in the mirror beside you...
What? Okay fine. I get up and look at the mirror beside me and the first thing I think is cute, The second thing I think is fuck me, The third thing I think is god damnit... I look freaking 10! WHY!? It just had to be like a 10 year old didn't it?! It freaking said 8-16, Sure, But seriously? The chance of being 12+ is higher than lower than that... Ugh this body is freaking short... Pha can you tell me my bodies changes?
Nope. You need to wait for the world-wide announcement from the Gods which expains everything about the systems and what is going on. After that everyone will gain access to their status screens and will be able to tell what changed with their bodies. First thing you should do it head back to your classroom to wait for everyone else to wake up. You woke up earlier than everyone else, So once they start waing up is when you will be able to use everything with the system you currently have available. You can also figure out how to use all your abilities and adapt to your new body once that starts.
Cool. Because it will be totally normal for there to be a random little girl in a classroom full of teenagers, but whatever. I start heading back to my class and along the way nothing seems different, Besides the fact a bunch of people are just sleeping on the ground. Ah right. Hey Pha, Why did the zombies that attacked me look like people from my school?
Ah that. They weren't actually people from your school, It's just that when the zombies are all created or spawned or whatever it is, They will look like people from that school or workplace. Not sure why, but it doesn't really matter much.
I see. Well I am back at my class now, So let's go in I guess. I open the door and I see everybody in the classroom is currently asleep. Wait what the hell! Fatty Zhu became Skinny Zhu... This inheritance thing is damn weird... Oh yeah regarding this inheritance thing, Will they be any people that change a lot like me? Like people becoming demi-humans or something?
No. You were just a special case. Nobody will become anything different after their inheritance, They will just undergo a massive change. They get to basically edit their bodies, I guess. They can add more muscle, Make theirselves more handsome or beatiful as long as it doesn't change them too much. they can increase their chest size and so on. Basically you can change your whole body, Including size if they want to. That's why I said you are a special case. You don't get to choose what your body will be like, Since your inheritance was preset for some reason.
I feel like the gods are biased against me... Oh! It seems like they are starting to wake up, Which means that the whole apocalypse thing will be starting soon, Right?
Yep. After everyone is awake and the world-wide announcement is sent out from the gods or whatever, There will be exactly 1 hour until the zombies start spawning. They can't spawn right around the humans though, So they would be in places without any humanas there, Not even one. So basoically the fields, Empty rooms, basements and so on. You will learn the rest from the announcement since I can't say anything else, Unless I want to be terminated.
Don't say anything else then! I sure as hell don't need you getting terminated on me anytime soon. As I was talking with Pha I heard a few screams, So I look over and notice that everyone is awake now. Most of them are screaming and confused, While a few are just inspecting their bodies and those around them. Naturally a few people notice me and give me weird looks, but don't bother saying anything. As I was wondering when they will shut up and stop screaming, Everything seems to be frozen in time and then I start hearing things in my head, I also assume the others do aswell since I can still see their expressions.
I guess I should say, Greetings? I am sure you are all quite confused about your current situation, As would I if I was in your shoes. So I shall explain it to you all. Currently, The world is about to be completely changed. I am sure some of you already assumed this, Considering you were able to change your bodies freely, Which I am sure you have all inspected is real by now. The world will have many monsters appearing soon, So I guess I should explain it simply. Simply put it is the apocalypse, Created by us Gods. it will start off with only zombies, and animals getting bigger and a bit stronger. After a month, Everything will start evolving. Zombies, Beasts, Plants and naturally humans. You will all get access to a system, Which will act as a sort of automated guide, Telling you basic stuff if it is allowed by us. You can observe you status screens, Which shows Your personal information, Such as your name and such. It will also include a level system, Which allows you to get stronger. You will need to kill zombies and beasts to gain experience to level up, And there is naturally rewards for doing so. Each zombie and beast has a change to drop a skill book and a treasure chest. The stronger they are, The higher the chance. You will also be able to see your stats by viewing your status screen. Each level up will reward you with two stat points, Which you are free to use on whichever stat you wish. This is all I will explain to you, So good luck. You will all get to choose a starter weapon, Which is either a dull machete, or a metal staff. You have 1 hour before the zombies spawn, So good luck to you all. Don't dissapoint us too much.
After that everything unfreezes and people start crying more and it is damn annoying. I guess this is was Pha meant when she said I would basically not care about anything. it is natural to be afraid and such with an apocalypse about to begin, but I have no worries about it. When I am thinking about what I should do this next hour I get a status pop up in front of me.
Choose your starter weapon. 1. Dull Machete. 2. Metal Staff. If you do not choose within the next minute, You won't get the chance to pick.
I instantly pick the Dull Machete because it will be more useful to me than the staff. I will be in need of something that allows me to cut stuff more than something for simply smashing everything. After I choose the machete, It simply appears in front of me on the ground. I pick it up and study it and it is just a crappy machete, but it is better than nothing. I also notice that other people started choosing their stuff and surprisingly, most people chose the Metal Staff over the machete. I guess it makes sense though, Since it provides more range to attack the zombies, Aswell as more power behind the attacks.
As I was playing with my machete trying to figure out how I should hold it properly I start hearing a bunch of talking so I stop an focus on the area where the talking is. It seems like a few people grouped together and are trying to start a group, Pretty smart I guess. I start listening in to hear what they got to say.
"Everyone, Please listen up! I am sure you are all still confused, Which is natural, but before that you need to remember! We were only given 1 hour total before the zombies spawn, And it has already been 10 minutes! What we need to do now is create a group with all of us and find a good spot in the school and barricade it, Before we start focusing on everything else! I will be the temporary leader, So can you all get up and grab your weapons and follow with me? We need to prioratize our safety, Rather than wasting the time we were given by crying to ourselves!"
Sounds pretty stupid to me but it seems to have worked. After he finished his little speech there, Everybody got up and started gather around him and waiting for further orders. Seeing them like this I decide to just be silent and follow them to see how he decides to work this out. He starts asking everyone for their names, and since I am too small for him to notice he skips me, Which I am pretty thankful for. It also seems that his name is Noah.
"Alright everyone listen up please! I will create 3 small groups and pick people to be the leaders of them, So can everyone tell me your stats, So I can choose the best people for those positions? It would be really helpful if you can all be honest and cooperate with me so we can settle this faster!"
Hey Pha, Don't you think this guy is freaking hilarious? He is tricking them so easily, Yet they are all believing him. He is clearly not as nice as he seems, and it obviously figuring out the people who are the biggest threat to himself being the leader.
I am quite surprised myself. The apocalypse hasn't even begun yet, and he is already good at having people under his finger! it seems like he isn't as simple as he seems and has clearly done this before. You should be a bit careful around him. Gives me a bad vibe.
Yeah, I have the same opinion. he is quite the schemer, And he isn't bad at it. I remember his family is pretty rich, So it seems like it just came natural to him, Huh.
"Alright everyone, After reading all of your stats I have chosen the best 3 people I could find to be the leaders. The first one is James, The second one is Sarah and the other one is David. Each of you three will choose seven people to join your group, and the rest of the class will join my group. This way if anything happens everyone can instantly join their group and fight back any troubles. Now choose your people fast so we can head over to the gym, Because it has the biggest space and has a lot of stuff we can use to barricade the doors. There is also a lot of food and water stored their because there was going to be a trip soon, If this situation didn't happen. After you have chose your people we can leave for the gym."
Hmm~ This guy is pretty intersting! Ah right, Didn't you say that was a status screen, Pha? How do I open that? I should probably look at it and get to know my stats.
You just need to think about it in your mind and it will appear in front of you. To get rid of it you just need to think status close. You should check it now since I am also curious about your stats, considering you aren't human now.
Hmm~ Let's see then. Status.
Name: N/A Strength: 14 Intelligence: 12 Title 1: N/A Age: 12 Speed: 14 Endurance: 10 Title 2: N/A Gender: Female Dexterity: 12 Vitality: 550 Title 3: N/A Race: Vampire Progenitor Level: 0 Class: N/A Points: 0
Pha? Is this... Normal?
... This is just stupid if you ask me. All your stats are above average, And you are still level 0... You don't even have a class yet. I guess having an overpowered race is just a huge bonus, Huh.
Right, So. Why don't I have a name? Also why can I not see my skills?
This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
You don't have a name because your body is brand new, With no relations to the last one, So you can choose any name you wish. As for the reason you cannot see your skill it is because you need to think Skill List instead of Status.
Skill List.
- Active Skills-
- Blood Syphoning
- Blood Clone
- Blood Wings
- Blood Rage
- Passive Skills -
- Immortality
- Inhanced Regeneration
Cool. I can easily check my skills now. Oh it seems that they finished making their groups. Hmm~ it seems like there is only about 30 minutes left, I guess. As I was thinking whether I should follow them or not, Noah walks over to me with a few people and starts asking me questions.
"Hey, Little girl. Who are you? I haven't seen you before, What is your name?"
Hmm! This is a problem. I don't exactly have a name right now... Hey Pha, If I just say what I want my name to be to him, Will it be set as that?
Yep. If you just say what you want your current name to be, You can just tell him that name now and it will be set as that name in your status.
I see. What should my name be... Hmm~ Oh! I guess this will work.
"Twelve."
"Huh?"
"Name is Twelve."
"I-I see. then Twelve, How did you come here? You aren't part of this class, I also don't think part of this school either."
"Don't know."
"Uh, Okay. Since you don't know then you don't know. Since the apocalypse is starting in 20 minutes or so, You should just follow our group so you can stay safe, Rather than wondering around on your own. So join my group, Okay?"
"Okay."
"Good. Then can you tell me what your stats are, Please?"
"All 6, Vitality 8."
As I said the fake numbers they all opened their eyes wide, Stunned. I guess my stats are higher than most of the others, Even if they were fake... After I joined their group we start heading to the gym without rushing, We also naturally find a few more groups along the way, and they also joined us on the way to the gym. When we got to the gym, There was already a few groups there, but they let us in without problem.
Hey. Why exactly did you decide to name yourself Twelve of all things? It's not even a name, Just a number. Makes you seem suspicious as heck.
I was already very suspicious since I just appeared here and nobody knows me. So I just decided to not give myself a proper name and just call myself Twelve. My age also has something to do with it so I just casually deicded to make my name Twelve. By the way, Did the system properly set my name as Twelve?
Yep. Your name is perfectly set as Twelve in the system. You can't change it now, haha. By the way, I guess I should tell you this. You aren't allowed to give people a fake name. If the name you tell people is not was it is set as in the system, You will literally explode. You can make it short form though, As long as it is part of your name. Just like mine. I took the Pha from Alpha and made it my name.
Figures it would be something like that... When we all finally got into the gym and made sure there was nobody else coming, A bunch of guys started grabbing stuff like wood planks and some metal bars from the storage room and started hammering them on all the doors and ground floor windows, Making all the exits besides the windows that are higher up the walls closed off. The only problem was that they used all of the wood and metal that was left so if the zombies manage to break in we can't block it off again. Hey Pha, What do you think the probability of the zombies breaking through the barricade are?
After the first few hours, The probability is around 30%, but after most of the people in the school die and turn into zombies, So I would say by tomorrow, The chance would be around 70-80%. Of course nobody but you knows this, So tell them if you want.
Why would I tell them? They obviously would not believe me and just think I am crazy and weird, Well more weird than I am already, Considering I am just randomly here. Not like I care about them either, And if the zombies break in that means I have a chance to kill some and level up. Not like I can die anyways, Being immortal and all that. By the way, Since it said as long as my soul does not dissipate I won't die, How can my soul dissipate?
The first way for your soul to dissipate is if you willingly make it do so. Like if you have had enough of dying and can't take it anymore, You can make your soul dissipate on your own accord, Though I doubt you will do that ever. The second chance would be if somebody uses a weapon or ability than can directly attack the soul. If the weapon or abiltiy is stronger than your soul, Then it would dissipate and you can't come alive again.
I see. Well there is no way I will make my soul disspate willingly, So I guess I will live until someone can overpower my soul. The probabilty of that happening within the next 5 years is around 10%, So I guess I am practically immortal for these years. While I was chatting with Pha, A couple of girls came over to me with some food.
"Hi. We saw you were not getting any food so we brought some over to you, I hope you don't mind. Whats your name, Little girl?"
Shit. I seriously got called a little girl. Well, I guess I am but it's still annoying...
"Twelve."
"Your name is Twelve?"
No shit woman! Why else would I say it?
"Yes."
"I see. Then Twelve, Here you go. I don't know if you will like it or not, but you need to eat so you don't get sick."
They handed me a few bottles of water and a couple protein bars, Aswell as a small sandwhich. They even gave me a bag of chips! Not gonna lie I kinda like them now. They gave me chips!
Seriously... They actually bought you with a bag of chips... You know what, I don't even care.
You know nothing! I love to eat chips as a snack! These are even my favorite chips aswell! Before I knew it the three girls were all sitting around me and chatting with eachother, Not that I mind. For some reason I don't mind these three girls. Hey Pha, Is there something wrong with me? I dislike being around everyone, Just not these 3 for some reason. Happened ever since my body changed. Do you know the reason?
The chips?
I'm being serious!
Fine, Fine! It might just be a natural thing? You might be able to naturally sense whether a person is bad or not, When they are around you? That is the only thing I can think of. That or you somehow turned up to hate males.
I doubt it is because I hate males now, That just wouldn't make sense since my mind is male. I guess it's probably the sense thing you said. I'm pretty sure it is because I already can tell most of the people here don't care about others, Just themselves. Like that Noah dude.
That does make a lot of sense. It is probably inborn in you, Not from the change in your body. I bet you had it before, Just not as useful as now. It's like a crappy danger perception skill that isn't a skill.
That makes sense to me. Oh yeah you said there was a shop right?
Yeah there is a shop built into every Alpha-System, Sadly I am the only one currently made. You can access it by thinking Shop, Where it will show you all the categories, Or you can just think Shop Weapons and it will show all available weapons and so on. Since you have time you should check out the shop to see everything you can find that would be useful.
I wish I could buy clothes right now... I don't even have a proper set of clothes on, I just have a ripped male school uniform on... I guess that is why everyone was looking at me weirdly to be honest. Well let's check out the shop then. Hm. Shop
Welcome to the Shop! As a reward for being the very first person to open the Shop, You will receive a free 100 points! *Clap* *Clap* *Clap* Now then, All the categories will be below this, So have fun looking through them!
- Weapons
- Food Stuffs
- Clothing
- Accessories
...
...
Seriously?
Seriously.
You know what... I don't even care. This is good for me. Well not like I can buy anything right now, But atleast I have the points to do so when I am able, Not being around people or anything.
I guess that is true. Although I know you want new clothes, They will have to be girl clothes so you won't be used to them yet. Just check out the weapons first. I want to see what is available currently.
Sure. Shop Weapons.
- Weapon Shop -
- Melee Weapons-
- Military Knife: 300 points
- Dagger: 200 points
- Machete: 200 points
- Axe: 150 points
- Hammer: 75 points
- Polearm: 125 points
- Ranged Weapons -
- Pistols: 500 points
- Rifles: 800 points
- Shotguns: 600 points
- Snipers: 1500 points
- Bows: 400 points
- Darts: 200 points
- Throwing Knifes: 200 points
Woah. Although there isn't much said, It clearly has a lot of good stuff already. I can even buy snipers, Which is nice. No spears or swords, Which is good because it would probably tempt me. The good thing is the Military Knife is one of those retractable blade ones, So I can have it on me at all times, Like in my sleeve or something. Everything is pretty damn expensive though. Oh yeah, Pha! How many points do I get for killing zombies and beasts?
I literally do not know. You have to kill a zombie and a beast first to find out how many you get from either side. I guess I should say this now. I don't know anything other than what a system should, Everything else come sfrom your knowledge. Basically my database isn't squat. So you should read a bunch of books and stuff like maps, Makes it so I can easily locate things and know a lot more to help you.
Sure, No problem. Although it will be a while until that is possible, I will obviously do it. Helping you is helping me either way. When I was about to eat one of the protein bars, We all suddenly hear a bunch of screams coming from outside the gym, Obviously scaring most of us. Not me though. Cuz I don't give a shit about anything. The girl sitting around me though, Jumped up scared as hell. It makes sense to me though, Because it's not like I lost everything. Most people would be scared like them, Unless they lost their emotions like me. Everyone starts looking at eachother and backs away from all the entrances. The girls notice that I didn't even flinch at the screams and got a little embarassed before sitting back down and talking to me again.
"Little Twelve, Are you not scared?"
... You are little! You are all little!
"No."
"Why aren't you scared? It makes sense to be scared in a situation like this, Even for us older than you. You are just a little kid and yet you aren't scared. Did something happen before?"
"Yeah, It surprised me by how you don't seem to care about anything."
"Me too!"
...
"Not scary."
After I say that I pick up my machete and show it off to them, Obviously surprising them a bit before they look at eachother and start laughing. I don't really get why they are laughing so I just tilt my head to the side a little to think about it before they laugh even more and tell me why.
"Hahaha, Little Twelve is right, What's there to be scared of. There are so many of us and we all have weapons so we will be safe until we run out of food. Sorry that we confused you by suddenly laughing all of the sudden, We just felt we were pretty stupid."
"Yeah, After you showed us your weapon we remembered how many of us there are with weapons. We just forgot all about it and you helped us remember. Such a good girl!"
"Yeah!"
After they say that one of the mstarts petting my head making smack her hand away which leads to them laughing even more. Well atleast they aren't scared anymore. I just seem to really like these 3 for some reason...
