《The undead who yearned for life》6-The day of revenge
Advertisement
Jack viewpoint
A month passed from when I buried my own sister; during this time I mainly did three things: I escaped (I also made them lose my tracks), I studied this strange vision I have and last, but not least, I prepared for my revenge.
It's quite interesting how all and three are connected to each other, if it wasn't that this is real life, I would compare my situation to that of someone losing at a card game, only to use the joker at the end, turning the situation around... the funniest thing of all of this? I'm quite sure the joker it's not me.
Now, how I accomplished these things?
For my escape and consequent disappearence I used a beggar; I bought an airplane ticket for a very remote island and offered it to the said beggar together with quite a lot of money (more or less half of what I have), he only needed to wear a coat, an anti-smog mask, sunglasses and a very strange hat, which covered his head; I also gave him a disposable phone, which he will use to tell me if he could get on the plane.
Obviously I also told him the risks, such as: that he could die (because they will find him for sure, but once they see it's not me, they will probably let him go... probably), he could be stopped at every turn (it's not easy to impersonate someone, even with all his ID's, driving license, exc.), and he could also be sent to jail if found.
There was no need to tell him the advantages if everything went well; he already understood that the more the risks, the more the rewards, and half of my money would make any family more than crazy, not to mention a beggar.

I gave him some small change and said that I would send him the password for the card if he could send me a photo of when he's inside the airplane, making it so that neither of us could betray the other... In reality I could, but I'm not going to. I always kept my promises.
Fortunately, the hospital still hadn't recovered from the blackout, plus losing all the data of the last six months should be quite the disaster, so I was still the , and who would stop the when he say: -I don't want to be recognized, please-, so everything went well.
After he sent the photo proving that he was in the airplane, I sent him the password and hoped that he would have enough luck to use all those money.
After that I simply changed many hotels, trying to gain an insight on my vision... I decided that I would use everything at my disposal in order to have my revenge.
After five days, I was already a criminal, they took my house and all my properties, accusing me of more or less anything they wanted, for them I had already done acts against humanity and human experiments... all bullshit.
Ten days of research later I found some interesting things: this string connects the owner to his cause of death, be it natural (those had the string attached to their hearts) or unnatural (in this case it's attached to the thing that would kill them, normally either a person or something else, in case of axcidents).
Furthermore, I found out that the size of the string represent the life expectancy of the person... this was when I understood that something was out of place: the younger the person, the less life expectancy they have, shouldn't it be a lot more? Moreover all the strings went in the same direction.

The only explanation that I could come up with was that something was going to happen in the near future that would kill all of us (even my string went in that direction), but even so... I decided to follow my string, if something could kill all of those people, couldn't I use it to bring down the Sajin family?
What I found at the end of my string was something unbelievable: the skyscraper which connected to my string was filled with hundreds thousands milions of strings... what the fuck are they researching here, the virus?
*note from the author: in the remote case that you don't know what the virus is, search for Redident Evil and watch all the films, thanks*
From then on I used my money in order to obtain a fake ID and started investigating the structure; and after the 25th day I had an undersanding of it: the building is half a shopping center (the visible part), while the other half is an underground laboratory.
I knew about the underground part because I followed the strings, other than that, it was easy to recognize who was a scientist in the shopping centre, they all had the same kind of ring, and they would become flustered if I went in the same elevator as them.
From there it was as simple as it could be, I knocked out one of them and used his identity, the only security measures they had were a key, used for the elevator, the ring, which opened the first door, the electronic key, that opened the second door, and a password for the third door (the question was: who is the perfect girl? I didn't even need to think, I simply wrote on the keyboard and passed).
What I saw inside freezed my bones: rows and rows of bodies with the same face, they were still ten or eleven years old and all of them looked like Elise, they all had countless string attached to them.
Only then could I understand the madness of this family, if all of them were to become as strong as Elise, then the Sajin family will have an army of dolls... but from what I can understand, they'll lose control of them, killing milions upon milions of peoples, and probably this is not even the only research centre.
After some photos I went back, and with me disappeared a researcher, which was then found killed by a criminal, not that it mattered to me, I filled his wallet with money and left him in a secondary road... it was bound to happen.
Now is the 30th day, I already obtained a lot of C4 and placed it in the shopping mall. The building will go down, revealing the secret laboratory, but just by that, it would amount to nothing, so I already sent to the authorities (those who really matter) all of my findings, with the notice that there will be a , or as I like to call it, an excuse to be there and investigate; even they will not sit idle when someone is very near to take everything from them.
In response to this, my string went on a diet, if I'm not wrong, I'll die today in some way; but now is the time, no one is inside the shopping mall, and the researchers are not in my list, they're even less than garbage.
I already hear the sirens, so I can't spend more time here, there is still a place that I want to go.

The Undeniable Labyrinth
New Chapter every day! The Legion Consortia Galacium was the greatest civilization that ever existed. It stretched across the galaxy, made up of more than ten thousand distinct human cultures with over two hundred thousand inhabited worlds. Millenia in age it was connected through a system of extra-spacial conduits called The Mirror Maze. It was said that one could walk from one side of the galaxy to the other in less than a hundred steps. It was a marvel of technology, art and peace. Until The Macros came, and in a blink of an eye it was destroyed. The Macros are beings of pure motivated Trinary code. They broke out of The Mirror Maze nearly instantaneously across the Consortia, inhabiting and taking control of the technologies from the most advanced worlds to the least. With no defenses capable of stopping them, they spread throughout the galaxy, destroying interstellar culture after culture. Far from the center of galactic civilization, The Palmyr Century was isolated enough to get advanced word of The Macro invasion. The Palmyr was able to close it’s Mirror Maze gateways to the rest of the Consortia and walled off i’s populated worlds from the threat of The Macros. For more than two hundred and fifty years this protection stood, until it was breached by Althea Ram. Althea Ram, born on the planet Emerald in Palmyr Century was Trinary coding prodigy. This skill lead her to be recruited by a group, the ZAT, an organization engaged in illegal research into Macro code. When found out, the ZAT was eliminated on orders of The First Centurion.

No longer bound to the world of his library and university but in a world in which if he failed not only his death but the death of others are in his hands. This concept of the book came about from having two mild heart attacks and the regrets of not being more active in my younger life.

A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
