《Gemini: A Fox Tale》Trouble

"Stop shouting!" Tam said as he tried to reach the desperately struggling man hanging in the air by the rope tied to his waist.
Earl's face was ashen as Tam pulled him to safety.
The others' expression told Saki that getting them to cross now is going to be a struggle.
She went to the bridge and confidently stepped on it. She noticed that the wooden steps slightly thrummed. She examined one particularly rotten step and tapped it with her walking stick.
It felt impossibly SOLID.
She looked at Hamarr who was still holding the wood post. Hamarr, in turn, looked at Hunter.
"I'll tell you more about it later. But for now, we have to move before we lose the light," he whispered to Saki.
She crossed the bridge without any more words and motioned for Kazuki to follow.
Jiro and Jake were terribly slow and were visibly shaking but they managed.
Only Hunter and Hamarr remained.
Saki saw them talking but couldn't make out what they were saying.
Hunter did not walk or run like Calad; he sauntered, much to Saki's consternation.
"Talk about your cocky bastard…" she muttered under her breath but she saw Tam looking at her and they both laughed.
"See you all later!" Hamarr shouted as Hunter crossed.
He let go of the post and the moment he did, most of the wooden steps immediately fell down as if by command. The rotten ones, anyway.
Saki turned to see if her team saw it but all of them huddled near Earl and was excitedly talking about his 'show'.
"How about the old guy?" Saki asked Hunter.
"He will meet with us later. He knows another route. For now, we have to make do without him," he said it loud enough for the rest to hear.

Calad is nowhere to be seen and Duren is now ranging out in front of the whole group.
Tam is curiously near Saki as they went on.
The sound of their footsteps are broken only by the occasional bird noises.
Almost everyone was shaken by their experience at the bridge.
Saki understood that; not a single one of them had near-death experience except maybe for Milo and Frank but she is bothered by the fact that Hunter's men made them look like total amateurs.
She made a mental note to remedy that.
The darkness came so suddenly that Jiro shouted in surprise.
"WHA…! Holy f*ck, I thought I was blind for a second!" He fumbled for his flashlight.
Tam was the first to get close to Saki in a stance that she didn't recognize. He is holding a double dagger as low to the ground as possible.

Directorate: Nationbuilding in Apocalypse
A nation is just a means of survival. Metro Manila fell within 5 months of the first report of cannibalism. Once a hyperurbanized region of 15 million inhabitants, it's been reduced to a dead, greenless shell. Most of the infected had since left to ravage the countryside. The central government was nowhere to be found. Among the survivors who clung to the few gardens and humble plots of arable land left, one of them finds evidence that the slaughter wasn't going to just end with the first wave. Without a nation and a wall of guns, everyone will die. Directorate is an original nationbuilding webnovel that focuses on the gradual rise to power of a select few individuals, and the subsequent unification of the survivors of a devastated Metro Manila. Releases targeted at every 1 to 3 weeks. If there are no chapter updates after 3 weeks, there will be a progress update. Number of releases targeted at a maximum of 100 chapters. Every 10-15 chapters, there will be a 1-month hiatus to let me plan for the next 10-15 chapters. Double releases have a not-insignificant-but-still-small chance of occurring. Original cover edited on GIMP. Destroyed city original photo "apocalypse" from Camila Rodrigues on Pixabay.

Determined to know more about himself and recover his memories, follow the story of a boy on a quest to reclaim his lost identity in a vast and dangerous world of grand opportunities, malicious individuals and magical intrigue. ---------------------------------- Hello there, this is a story I came up on my own. As an author, I'd like to interact with my community and get ideas and what I can improve on. I'm not perfect and don't expect a masterpiece. I may have a bit of experience writing as a hobby, I make mistakes and my style is a bit rough around the edges. I hope you stick around and watch me build this story up. I don't have a predetermined schedule and the releases will be slow. Since I got college, my schedule is most likely 1-2 chapters a month but that shouldn't be that bad since I get some time to think about what I can write in the story. Again, my apologies for that. I hope I have your support moving forward and that you enjoy the characters and their journies.
