The End Of Life Chapter 136
Advertisement
Waking up the next day, they continued on their journey the same way as before. Mark didn't have any more headaches after that, but also never got the chance to use the powers again.
After 2 days of traveling, they finally reached Loshin. Entering the city, they made their way towards the hospital, which was the camp in the town. Slowly driving through the roads, they stayed vigilant at all times. Parking the jeep in front of the building Mark and Suzie got done followed by David and Kevin who parked the van next to them.
"Kevin, can you keep a lookout here?" Asked Mark. There was no one to stay on guard, and they parked the vehicle in the open.
Kevin nodded and said, patting his chest, "Leave it to me." Grabbed his AK and moved towards the vehicles once again.
The rest slowly made their way inside. Looking around, they couldn't find a lot of zombies in the building. It was only a few days ago that the camp here was bustling with people and was now empty with a few zombies roaming occasionally. They moved inside, killing zombies, and finally reached the testing lab.
The hospital had a solar electricity supply to some major rooms inside, and the lab was one of them. David got to work immediately when he noticed the machines were still working properly. He started by taking her blood and conducted tests while Mark and Suzie simply sat and kept quiet.
After 2 hours of waiting, David finally turned around and said, "I don't have much knowledge when it comes to these kinds of tests and topics, but I have general knowledge enough to tell there isn't anything strange in your blood. Let's take an X-ray of the arm once."

Suzie sighed in relief, knowing there wasn't any change in her body. Mark felt good to know that there wasn't any change in her body when he used the strange power a few days back. They continued with the X-ray and once again waited. After another hour, David came back and nodded with a smile, making all the doubts he had clear.
"For now, everything is clear. If we had time, I would like to even get a DNA test done, but those would need a specialist and also at least a week, which we don't have right now."
"That's good for now, David. Now that our doubts are mostly cleared, let's have lunch before we continue towards Stargaze city again." Mark nodded and walked out.
Suzie didn't forget to thank David for checking her condition, and both of them followed him out of the hospital. As they walked out, they noticed a few zombie bodies around the car and an energy bar in Kevin's hand as he slept on the jeep's front glass. Noticing them come out, he completed the bar and jumped down.
"Man, you guys took forever with those tests. I was getting bored and hungry. So how were the results?" Kevin grumbled and turned towards Suzie and David.
Suzie nodded while David said, "Everything's well." with an affirmative nod. Kevin sighed in relief and looked over towards Mark who was already in the car, looking at them.
They drove out of the city in no time before stopping for lunch and continuing on the journey. Slowly driving on the hallway, they didn't stop the vehicles anywhere in between except for rest until they reached Stargaze city.
As they entered the city, Mark stopped the jeep in an alleyway and got down. The truck, following them right behind, also stopped as they looked at him with confused faces.

"You guys don't expect to drive the jeep full of stuff right into the military camp, right? Now we need a place to park this big old truck," he smirked, making them realize.
"We can hide it near my house. My house is big enough." sounded David immediately.
The rest looked at him in confusion and David continued, "I live in Reymond Street." making them realize.
Everyone who lives in Stargaze city knows the place. It was where all the wealthy people live with enormous houses. Three of them turned towards him in surprise when he said he had a house in such a nice place.
"Doc, you sure are rich," exclaimed Kevin.
David shook his head but didn't reply. He was a successful doctor, he never spent much money on anything and except his big house he brought back when his wife was still alive, he lived a minimalist life.
"Anyway, we can park the truck in the backyard after scouting the whole place once. I don't think the General would mind us being a day late." David shrugged and looked at Mark.
Mark nodded and replied, "Alright then, let's go to David's house for today and move towards the camp tomorrow." climbing back into the jeep. This time it was David who drove in front as the jeep slowly followed him from behind.
They followed him as they slowly entered the high-end of the city. In contrast to this place, the apartment in which Mark and Kevin lived was a lower-middle-class area while Suzie was a middle-class place. The before the vibrant place filled with rich cars was now empty with zombies on the street.
Kevin was the main shooter, as he sat beside David in the front and shot down the zombies in front while Mark took care of the ones in the back. They slowly entered the gated community and stopped in front of a house.
David got down and gave the wheel to Kevin as he went to the side and opened the gates to the lawn behind the house. The jeep followed the truck inside, and they finally saw a medium-sized swimming pool.
"I never thought the simple-looking David was this rich," murmured Suzie as the jeep came to a stop. They got down and looked at David, who came back after closing the gates.
"Come, let's go in." waving his hand, he led them to the huge transparent backdoor.

When Plush comes to Shove
An: So the last synopsis wasn’t really all that good, it was just some mumbo jumbo with no actual point to it so I decided to make a new one that’s a bit more accurate. Leo Lush, just your average everyday (slightly chubby) schmuck, or at least he would be if he didn’t carry around a stuffed toy everywhere he went.I mean, he was a man who could read the atmosphere a bit so put it away in his bag whenever having a stuffed toy out would be rude but other than that he brought it with him all the time, it was a memento from his girlfriend who had died three years ago and keeping it close made him feel better. That’s also why his classmates gave him the nickname “Plush”, though that's neither here nor there. One day at the train station he’d lost his dearest stuffed toy, one of his classmates found it and lobbed it towards him, something that they’d already done many times before, but this time something went wrong and Leo found himself falling in front of the train due to the force of the throw. Now follow Leo as the spirit that developed in his stuffed toy and killed him forces his ghost into another world to possess a different stuffed toy. He doesn’t know much about the world or why he’s there but what he does know is that according to a magic book his girlfriend was also sent to this very world when she died in a plane accident three years ago. An: For those who want to know a bit more about what kind of story this will be: I want it to be a chill feel-good story and stay as far away from those despair-fest stories as possible (No offense to people who enjoy them, I’m just not one of you)Let me make something clear; I’m not writing this story with hope of it becoming really top tier among RRL (Though it did get above rank 500 once which I’m still very proud of even though it’s gone back down to ~850 at the time of writing this) I just want to write a story that I would enjoy reading, that’s why I’ll be mostly skipping over a lot of the parts that I skip when I read other stories, such as stats, the exact value of money and other such precise statistics that no one(as far as I’m aware) really cares about all that much. Just feels like a lot of effort for something superfluous.There’s a single exception and that’s one of the battles, it’s not a despair-fest or anything but it’s got a different feel than the rest of the story due to me being in a funky mood while I was writing it.
