《An Average Zombie's Path of Evolution》Chapter 12 - Humanity Awakens (1)
Advertisement
The sound of water dripping resounded throughout the broad tunnel, piles of dead rats littered the muddy ground as it gained a new shade of red. The sound of footsteps steps soon resumed as two figures quickly dashed forward.
(Jaeson) “ were halfway to sector four, the water treatment compound should be near here.”
(Xavier) “ I can here more undead heading here”
“Get Ready!”
*Tremble* *Tremble* *Tremble*
However just before the wave of undead made to our location the sides of the walls started trembling, cracks started forming on the ceiling of the tunnel. Small pieces of rusted steel chipped off and inserted themselves into the muddy ground.
*boom*
A hole formed on the ceiling and a gargantuan figure slowly came into view as the dust that came flooding from above cleared away. Two large bloated arms, a large triple chin, and an inhuman sized belly almost three meters wide. It’s skin was a taint of green with black spots and the smell around it probably wasn't much better judging by the number of flies around it.
(Jaeson) “god, not another one”
The large undead opened its mouth and its large waist suddenly seemed to have implode on itself followed by a rapid expansion, the undead’s large bloated throat quickly expanded as a large amount of liquid visibly traveled through the throat to its mouth.
“ghuuughghuuugh”(throw up noise)
Just as a large burst of toxic looking vomit was about to reach us, we already started our countermeasure against the bloater type undead. We simply ran towards it avoiding the toxic vomit, just as we neared it the undead decided to throw its one ton body towards us, however we swiftly dashed away.
The Undead quickly tried getting up however Xavier jumped above its head, turned and grabbed the back of its neck, the undead tried to shake him off while waving its large hands at us. It quickly regained its balance and It’s stomach once again sunked inwards as it aimed his mouth at us, who purposely taunted it. Xavier took the opportunity and quickly lodged a grenade in between its jaws and avoided its rapidly closing teeth. Xavier quickly jumped of the large body while dodging it’s swinging arm and took cover.

*Boom*
Pieces of flesh scattered around the tunnel and stuck themselves to the walls as a fountain of green liquid spilled out of the gauging wound on the undead’s neck.
(Bernabe) “ I still can't believe how stupid these fat fucks are”
(Julius) “hmph, these guys can’t even compare to the hunters we faced back in sector six”
(Jaeson) “ well you better not underestimate them, while they are very stupid, its large body is just troublesome to deal with.”
Just as they continued walking forward, a light red glow flashed behind their backs. An ashen pair of hands tightly griped onto the wall at the intersection on the side of the tunnel, and his legs and waist bended downward, as if ready to pounce any moment. However it instead decided to wait and sneakily follow the small group of soldiers.
A greedy and lustful look appeared on its face.

Sector 0 - Temporary Civilian Center
Large tents filled the streets as supplies and other items were carried in and out of the nearby casino buildings. This place was once a mess but was quickly reclaimed before the disaster spread and took over.
Several Armoured vehicles quickly zoomed by, the nearby civilians watched and inquired where they were heading or what type of mission they may have.
A young man laid inside a nearby tent, his lifeless looking eyes which were very common around told the story of a young man who lost something that was of great importance to him. However, despite losing he was still alive, refusing to die. On the tip of his index finger a small wisp of electricity made a small buzzing noise. He was one of the first awakeners, the future of mankind.

Sector 6 -
A mother kneeled before the corpse of a young girl, a look of terror was still visible on the corpse's face. A small tear flowed down the mother's face, however instead of sadness here face showed extreme rage. A red aura burst from her, quickly turning a deep shade of brown, nearby pebbles started levitating in the air around her.

“AHHHhhhhhh” her scream of rage permeated the entire camp followed by a red aura. Everyone in the camp, whether young, middle aged or old walked and looked at her, upon seeing her expression and the corpse before her, a grim expression crawled into their faces. They have been living in constant fear for the past two weeks, unable to do anything. Hundred of mothers they've seen crying, many kids have been left orphans, and so many people have lost their precious relatives. But all they are able to do is watch in a helpless manner, unable to comfort their own wounded hearts, much less others.
“GYYYAAAAHHHHHHHHH”
Everyone in the camp screamed in unison, the message was clear. Tired of this hopeless situation, the only way to overturn it was to fight back with everything they got.
Their future is in their hands, so it's about time they put them to use.

Pacific ocean -
A large aircraft carrier rapidly moved across the ocean, trying to make it back to land. Gargantuan crabs sunk their pointy legs into the ship's hull and tried to climb to the ship's flight deck. However nearby ships immediately shot them down. The ships were also under constant attack, the sailors onboard looked weary.
Behind them lay a trail of flaming ships which couldn't make it.
Aircraft zoomed by and took out large fish that tried charging at the ships with their missiles. However after a few hours the aircraft ran out of fuel and ammunitions, due to the constant attacks the carrier was unable to advance forward.
Making matters worse, the Nuclear Propulsion system was heavily damaged, the ship quickly lost its mobility and now could only rely on currents to move. These sea creatures themselves relied on the currents to travel, making them unable to get away.
Just as they thought it was all over… it was.
A large vortex opened formed below the carrier, two thick curved pointed walls appeared around the carrier, six tentacles the size of three-six skyscrapers extended from below and flipped all the nearby boats over, some boats tried to flee but were quickly rampaged by sea creatures. Other ships were flipped over by the large waves. Some ships even detonated themselves.
The curved walls suddenly extended from both sides of the flight deck and quickly revealed their nature, a giant beak. The center of the carrier was quickly devoured in one bite. Only pieces of the flight deck were left, and their only fate was to sink to the bottom.
Humanity lost all the battles in the sea.
Countless ships, Countless countries, countless lives.
The Pacific, Atlantic, Arctic, Indian and southern oceans all became places where humanity could not tread.
