《An Average Zombie's Path of Evolution》Chapter 14 - Three Months of Progress

Eh? Where am I?
Oh, this is my old school’s soccer field.
Huh??
*Bam!* A soccer ball hits my head producing a loud noise.
AHHH!!!!!
A large pain shoots throughout my whole body, my brain feels like it's about to explode out of my skull, and all the muscles in my body cramp and twist, even my blood circulation feels like molten rock is traveling through my body.
Suddenly a sharp pain shoots from my back as glowing blue vessels emerge from my skin, the vessels blend together into a back plate with a blue metallic luster which covers most of my back, from my shoulders all the way to my waist like a piece of armour. Eight slits formed a square around the center of my back.
From the small thin openings, eight thin glowing blue tendrils resembling blade whips emerged.
The pain finally stops and my mind slowly calms down.
“Where am I?”
I look around but all I see is darkness.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
District 2- (Sectors 3 & 4)
Three people wearing white hazmat suits are clearing the bodies and tissues lying around a water treatment facility.
(Guy #1) “So Tom, what is… this weird yellow boulder?”
(Guy #2) “um… I have no idea, we tried drilling it out but failed”
(Guy #1) “how… just how did it get there?”
(Guy #2) “I have no idea…”
(Guy #1)” um so what are we gonna do about it?”
(Guy #2) “we’re getting a diamond drill next week dont worry”
*Crack*
(Guy #1 & 2) “What was that!. Huh it's cracking!”
(Guy #2) “holy shit, run!”
However just before they ran towards the exit ladder…
*Boom*
The ugly yellow boulder exploded into pieces, small chunks of hard yellow rock were blasted all over the place, Piercing and killing the two hazmat guys who I refuse to Acknowledge.
“Awww!” “Report to base!”
“Monster!” Another hazmat guy screamed as a blurry figure emerged from the debris, the figure was not fully visible due to the yellow gas the emerged out of the boulder, however it was easy to tell it was at thin and tall humanoid body with eight thin tendrils extending from its back.
*Shoop* (Slashing Noise)
*Shoop* *Shoop* *Shoop* *Shoop*
The tendrils slashed back and forth turning all the people in the room into minced meat.
*Rang!* *Rang!* *Rang!* *Rang!*
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My body feels extremely powerful, I think I finally became OP.

I Walked in circles around the darkness, hitting an oval wall on all sides, then I remember what happened before I entered Evolution… I'm in an egg, or something of that nature. I Stretch my my muscles, my bones make strong cracking noises that almost sounds like several pieces of metal scraping against each other. I touch and admire my new muscles that almost convince me that my muscle fibers were composed of steel threads.
I bend my legs down and I stretch my right hand in front of me in a ninety degree angle while look up.
“O N E, PUNCH!!!!”
I jump up and break right through the “egg’s” wall. The tendrils on my back swing around and cut everything around me into pieces.
*Rang!* *Rang!* *Rang!* *Rang!*
An alarm starts sounding as I quickly exit the facility through an emergancy ladder leading to the surface. As I dust myself of on the the center of the street I look around.
I start hearing the sound of heavy footsteps heading towards my location. I look around and notice im already surrounded by soldiers.
“Enemy Spotted, Fire at will!” A soldier guy yells as he aims a rifle at me”
*Tring, Tring, Tring, Tring, Tring*
The Sound of shooting resounds in all directions.
*Cling* *Cling* *Cling*
The sound of empty shells hitting the floor resounds as the face of all the soldiers stiffen.
In Front of them is monstrous looking being, Two meters tall, thin body with compacted steele like muscles, long black nails with a metallic luster. Long gray fiendish hair hangs around his neck, and his diabolical looking eyes with a glowing red vessels that extend to the area around his eyes release an evil aura that seems to grip onto your soul. A blue metallic plate covers his back and even part of his shoulders, eight menacing looking blade whips extend from his back.
“Run!”
“Call a hero!”
“Alert the hero association!”
“Huh” I think to myself, what do they mean by hero association…”
I look around, many military tents are scattered around the area, the large building complexes are stuffed with crates, some are labeled as food and water, while others are labed as ammunition and explosives.
Soldiers running all over the place.
I this…is this a military district or something?
My luck can't be that bad right?
“Hahaha look at you all whimps, I will take care of this guy myself”

A strong looking shirtless soldier looks at me menacingly as he declares he will “deal with me”
He grabs his blade, I stare at him intrigued by his actions. He charges straight towards me...is he an idiot?
He stabs his blade towards me.
*Chink*
The Blade breaks into pieces and so does his wrist…
"Ahhhh" He screems, as he runs away, I just look at him in awe that he made it this far.
“Quickly move aside!, I will take care of him!”
An average looking guy walks up towards…
I'm really enjoying myself here.
His fist heads towards me but i'm not worried at all.
*Bam!*
As the fist hits me i'm sent flying across the street and into a green plastic tent.
*Bleh* I spit out a mouthful of blood. What the fuck, since when were people that strong… in only three months there's humans like that now?
“Shit!”
As I got up and walked out the tent he appeared behind me like a flash and sent a kick towards me.
*Clang!*
With the help of my tendrils i block it, but i'm forced to take several steps back.
(Me) “You Fuck!”
“You.. can speak!, I’ll take care of you before you become a hazard”
Is what he would've probably said before my eight tendrils extended towards him, he tried to grab them thinking they were normal blades, however his hand was easily cut through. My kagune swung around a couple times and easily turned him into mincemeat
“AHHHH”
The soldiers seeing the scene started panicking.
*Vroooom*
A car zoomed by and quickly braked.
*Screeeeech*
It made a loud screech as it stopped, Several figures got off the vehicle and looked at me.
(Ugly woman) “So this is the thing everyone is worrying about, The useless soldiers”
(Blue haired Teen) “I’ll deal with it”
The blue haired teen aimed a blue bolt at, it shot at a tremendous speed, however i still easily dodged it, a cold feeling ran up my foot. I looked at it and noticed my heel was covered in permafrost, part of it turned purple.
Just when I though I became OP I have to meet a group of freaks!
(Ugly woman) “ Che, useless you even missed”
(Blue haired Teen) “It's fast, shit”
(Ugly woman) “Quick it's running away!”
No way in hell i'm fighting them!, when they were arguing i made a run for it. I jumped back into the sewer lid and started running through the passageways. I could still hear their footsteps after me.
(Blue Haired Teen) “Ah we let it get away. Its way too fast, i don't think anyone will be able to catch it”
(Ugly woman) “lets hope it learned its lesson, hmph that's why i don't team up with little kids”
Those guys were really abnormal, the boy looked very ordinary at first, but his blue hair calls too much attention… plus she reminded me of a certain water user that once chased me around for a while. As for the women, If I had one word to describe her it would be: Ugly, i mean i'm not those guys who tend to judge people, but here face really made me instantly think of the word ugly, even i couldn't help it!
Well for now i'll just follow these damn passageways.
I occasionally ran into some soldiers and hazmat guys who were clearing the dead bodies from the water ways, however i easily ran past them, and all they would hear is the sound of my body cutting through the wind like a whip.
After three hours i ran at least several miles i'm not sure where I am anymore. After another hour i finally saw a glimpse of natural light. Iron bars covered the exit from the sewer tunnel, I Easily destroyed them and exited the tunnel.
Rocks, mountains, and nothing but desert.
I'm in the desert.
*Ding*
A noise suddenly rang out.

A Green spore gently traveled through the wind, it landed near a tenant building, the spore gently broke open, revealing a tiny green glowing parasitic worm with drill shaped head. I gently crawled in through an open window, upon sensing a sleeping human it crawled towards him/her and inserted itself into his/her arm and started its journey towards the host’s brain.

Children of the Singularity (S4)
Even the end of the world had its beginnings. Most reminisce over comforts that seemed so common yesterday even though yesterday was so far away. A select few reminisced over the original pocket that now enveloped the world. It began with the Chernobyl disaster releasing an otherworldly being preying on humanity's very soul. It grew stronger with every scream, it’s corruption instilling absolute bedlam and madness. With the required elements all being present in that fateful year of 2012 the predator found it’s escape in those who became known as the Children of the Singularity. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Artwork by AlexAlexandrov (deviantart)Metro 2033.

But when Winona hears about a string of grisly murders in the nearby city of Missoula, she knows in her gut it’s the work of an ancient evil, driven away from their lands long ago. Reluctantly, and against the wishes of her Father, Chief Chankoowashtay, Winona must leave the forest and venture into the world of men, disguised as a frail human, in order to set the balance straight and stop the killings. And with the help of a handsome, slick-talking city detective named Chris Fuller, she might be able to do it.
