《Love In Hell (D.D.)》1.6 Blowing Up
Advertisement
I gave them a disgusted look " I'd rather have sex with a walker than with Shane"
Then the Doc walked in.
He walked to the coffee machine and poured himself a cup of coffee "morning"
We all nodded "Hey, Doc"
Dale "Doc, i don't mean to slam you with questions but-"
Doc sighed "-but you'll anyway"
Andrea "We didn't come here for the eggs"
Doc nodded "Come with me"
we walked into the computer room.
The Doc on a big monitor.
I saw Daryl and i tensed a little.
He looked at me and i looked back to Doc.
Doc "Give me a playback of TS-19"
V.I. "playback of TS-19"
We looked at the monitor.
Doc "A few people got the chance to see this. Very few. "
We saw a X-Ray of a human head.
Carl "is that a brain?"
Doc nodded "an extra ordinary one. Not that it matters in the end. "
It showed us an x-ray of the brain.
Shane "What are those lights?"
Doc "It's a person's life. experiences, memories. It's everything. Somewhere in all those lights is you. The night that makes you unique and human. Those are electric impulses. They determine everything a human said. Everything from the day of birth. To the moment of death. "
Dad "death? that's what this is?"
Doc nodded "yes"
Andrea "this person died? who?"
Doc "Test object 19. Someone who was bitten and infected. And volunteered to have us record the process"
V.I. "Scanning to first event"
I sat down on a chair.
It showed darkness in the lower part of the brain.
I asked confused "What does that mean?"
Doc "It invades the brain like meningitis. The brain goes into shutdown and then the mayor organs. Then death. Everything you ever were and ever will be... "
Me "Gone"
Doc nodded.
Sophia asked Carol "is that what happened to Jim?"
Carol nodded "yes"
Andrea held her tears back.
The Doc gave her an confused look.
Mom "She lost somebody two days ago"
Doc nodded "I lost somebody too. I know how that feels. V.I., scan to the second event"
V. I. "Scanning to second event"
It showed the brain completely dark. Dead.

Doc "It took the brain to resurrect: 2 hours, 1 minute, 7 seconds."
The brain started to light again. But only a little in the lower part.
Mom asked confused "it restarts the brain?"
Doc "No, just the brainstem. Basically it gets them up and move"
Dad "but they're not alive. "
Doc "You tell me"
Dad shook his head "It's nothing like before. Most of that brain is dark. "
Doc "dark, lifeless, dead. The human part doesn't come back. The you part. It's just a shell with a lifeless instinct."
Suddenly a bullet went through the brain.
Carol asked shocked "god. What was that?"
Me "They gave it the shot"
He nodded at me.
Andrea "you shot this patient in the head, didn't you?"
Doc "V.I., shut down the power of the main screen and work stations"
Andrea "you have no idea what it is, do you?"
I walked to Daryl.
He looked at me with a raised eyebrow.
I whispered "listen, I have a strange feeling that something else is going here."
He raised an eyebrow confused "why are you telling me this?"
Me "Because-"
I trailed off because i've got nothing to say.
Then I rolled my eyes annoyed "just trust me, okay?"
He looked at me skeptical but nodded.
I heard Jackie say "Jesus"
Daryl groaned "man, i gotta get shitfaced drunk again. "
I looked around and saw a clock counting down "One more question, Doc, what happens when this clock is at 0?"
Doc "The power runs out"
Then he walked away.
Me "V.I., what happens when the power runs out?"
V.I. "When the power runs put decontamination will appear"
I groaned "We are all blowing up"
The guys except Daryl ran to the basement.
Carl ran to me and i hugged him. I saw my mom starring at my neck because Carl had moved it off my neck.
I glared at her "something wrong?"
Mom "I think we should go back to our rooms"
I nodded "Fine by me"
Then I let go of Carl and walked into my room. I felt that it was getting hot in here. Too hot.

I looked around and noticed that the air conditioner had stopped.
Then i groaned annoyed "for fucks sake"
I walked out of my room and in the room in front of me. I walked in and saw my knives on the table next to a crossbow. Daryl was sitting on the sofa with a bottle Jack in the hand.
I stepped on the sofa and stretched my hand up to the air conditioner "Yours is off too"
Daryl "What?"
He took a sip of Jack.
Suddenly the lights went off. I looked at Daryl. We walked to the door and saw that everyone was stepping out of their rooms.
Daryl "what's going on? why is everything shutting off?"
Doc walked through the corridor and took Jack out of Daryl's hand "It's turning everything down that's not important"
Dale asked dump fooled "Air is not important?"
Daryl "And light?"
Doc shook his head "It's not up to me. Zone 5 shuts itself down"
Daryl "Hey! Hey, what the hell does that mean?"
But the Doc just walked away. We all followed him.
Daryl "hey man, i'm talking to you"
We walked down the stairs.
Daryl looked at me with a look.
Me "see now what i'm talking about?"
He nodded.
I looked at the timer "So we got 31 minutes left till this blows up"
He nodded.
The Doc took a sip but Daryl ripped the bottle out of his hand.
Doc "It were the French"
Andrea "what?"
Doc "they were the last ones to hold out so far as I know. a lot of people looked the door and committed suicide. They thought they were close to finding a solution"
Jackie "What happened?"
Doc "same thing that happened here. The power rid- ran out of juice. "
Shane came at him but Dad held him back.
Dad to Mom "Lori, get our stuff. Everyone, get your stuff. We're getting out of here NOW!"
We were turning around to run but then the alarm went on.
Me "The hell?"
V.I " 30 minutes to decontamination. "
Shane yelled "Go! Go ! Now!"
I ran out of the door but stopped when i heard the door going up - separating me from the others.
Then I turned around and yelled "Dad! Dad !"
Dad "Kendall!"
i saw him for a split sec before the door went completely up.
I was out here but they were still in there.
Then I yelled "Dad! Dad!"
i looked around and tried to find a button that could open the door but there was none "You son of a bitch"
Out of nowhere i could hear Daryl scream "son of a bitch!"
then T-Dog screamed "wow, put the axe down, Daryl, man, come on!"
Daryl screamed "Let me go!"
Then i heard dad yelled "Jenner, open the door!"
Daryl yelled "Kendall is on the other side of these doors. Open them doors!"
Dad yelled "my daughter is on the other side"
I hammered against the door and yelled "Dad! Dad!"
Then i looked through the corridor. It was pretty creepy.
Suddenly i heard Dad yelling for me "Ken! Ken! if you hear me! Get the hell out of here! Grab your stuff and run!"
i yelled back, shaking my head "I'm not leaving you !"
Dad yelled "Go!"
Tears were rolling down my cheeks. I leaned against the door and slid the door down.
I heard them hammer against the door but it wouldn't break. I got up and ran to Daryl's room, grabbed my knives and hung the crossbow over my back and ran back to the door.
Only one person was hammering against the door.
Suddenly the door opened and Daryl stood in front of me with an axe.
I breathed out relieved "Thank god"
Daryl turned to the others "Let's go! come on!"
He put a hand on my lower back and pushed me with him. Everyone grabbed their stuff and we walked to the big window wall. The guys tried to break it open but the window wouldn't crack.
Shane shot at it but nothing.
Carl hugged my side.
Dad "look out!"
Everyone ducked and the window exploded. We ran out and made our way to the cars. I took my knives out. Everywhere were walkers.
I shoved him to mom "Carl, run to Mom, Now"
He held onto mom. I cut a walker's head off.
We got in the cars.
I saw Dale and Andrea running out.
Daryl pushed me down "get down!"
I ducked and the CDC exploded. I looked up. It was burning. I leaned back and breathed hard. I put the crossbow and the sword in the backseat and Daryl drove off.
Again with the caravan.
I looked at Daryl and he glanced at me.

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6
