Sam had found a way to get rid of the zombies even though it ca at the risk of a building.
He didn’t care because this was a small price to pay but sothing told him it wouldn’t be this easy.
Sam didn’t know what Delta ant by his earlier warning but it had to be sothing a lot more dangerous knowing Delta.
Sam could feel eyes on him but he didn’t know whose eyes they were, not that it mattered.
Sam chuckled before that laugh turned into a maniacal laugh, he couldn’t believe that this world ca before him.
He could kill without reserve, if this wasn’t heaven on earth then what was?
"Delta, where the fuck are you? You better be," Sam showed concern for the first ti.
But was this genuine or was it just him having so twisted sense of care?
Sam took his gun, pointed it into the sky and let loose a shot that echoed throughout the base.
"Now then, co at you fuckers!" Sam said with a grin but what ca at him was sothing he couldn’t have predicted.
It was a zombie but there was sothing strange about it, sothing familiar.
"Interesting," Sam said, his wounds were healed and he was ready to rumble but he didn’t know what kind of zombie this was.
The zombie was slender and it was a fresh corpse due to the lack of decay, it was almost like it was preserved.
The zombie just stared at him, it didn’t walk into the burning building but Sam was sure that it couldn’t see him.
Sam chuckled before pointing his gun right at that ugly thing but his face was bandaged except for his eyes, he was ready to blast a bullet right through its head but before he could pull the trigger.
He heard more growling noises behind him and he looked over his shoulder to see even more zombies behind him. They also had the sa characteristics as the first zombie.
"The more the rrier," Sam boasted as he unsheathed a shotgun and pointed it at the two in the opposite direction.
The mont he blinked, the zombies were no longer in their initial position and Sam realized why, they were running right towards him.
"So this is what he ant..." Sam said, anyone in his shoes would be shaken to the core but all Sam did in this situation was smile.
He knew that the guns would be blocked with their hands but the destructive power of a shotgun would render this naught.
However, Sam didn’t want to end things soon and decided to drop the guns he was holding.
The mont he did, they were within striking distance.
Two lunged right at his head from the front with another reaching for his lower back from behind.
All Sam did was sorsault backwards, over the crouching zombie that had reached for his lower back and the other two for his head.
This forced them to crash right into each other as Sam casually unsheathed both of his daggers simultaneously.
"Oh yeah, I’m going to enjoy this," Sam said with a grin and luckily for him, the zombies didn’t co at him all together this ti around.
One ca at him, reaching for his head but he noticed that these zombies were a lot slower than the one he had fought and weaker too.
Sam dodged the zombie’s attempt to grab his head by crouching before severing its legs.
The zombie fell to the ground incapacitated as it lost the one thing that made it dangerous which was its legs.
Sam was impressed because the other two zombies were already on him but Sam threw both his axes that impaled their heads perfectly.
They tried to use their respective hand to defend themselves but like Sam had noted earlier.
They were a lot slower than the one he had fought that say
He casually walked to where he dropped his guns and picked them up because why not?
He noticed he still had one more zombie to kill off but part of him wanted to leave it just for the fun of it however his curiosity set in.
He wanted to see why they were bandaged up and he loosened the bandage.
Sam’s facial expression didn’t change but his body language gave him away.
"Now this is nasty..." Sam muttered, their skull was cut open leaving the top part of their brain exposed.
The bandage was an attempt to keep it together.
The fact that the zombie was still functional even when reduced to this state was sothing to note.
Sam knew things were about to get serious as these corpses were tampered with.
"I see, it’s all adding up," Sam muttered under his breath as he got back to his feet.
"These running creatures, they were created by him... This ans he is the one responsible for the base falling," Sam said.
He now had a solid reason to eliminate the man but he needed to find him first.
"That was quite entertaining..." A voice said on the walkie talkie but Sam didn’t recognize this face.
"You’re the doctor, I presu..." Sam suggested bluntly, he had no ti to waste.
"Oh my, I’m honoured you know of but this can only an that you have t Anderson..." The doctor responded.
"I always hated conversing through one of these, how about you tell where you are so we can have this conversation in person?" Sam asked.
"You’re right..." The doctor responded prompting Sam to raise a brow in confusion.
But before he could even speak into the walkie-talkie, a flare gun was fired into the skies.
"Follow that and you will find but not just , your little friend as well..." The doctor teased.
"Hahaha! Thank you, I will be sure to get you sothing on my way," Sam responded.
Little did either know how far both were willing to go to complete their objective.

Jason made the biggest decision of his life, he didn’t know what would happen after consuming the fragnt but as long as he was self-aware, he didn’t mind it.
Jason’s knees buckled, and his body was overco by sothing overwhelming, he felt like Hercules holding up the skies except he wasn’t nearly as strong as the Greek God.
"What the fuck is happening to , Chronos!?" Jason asked but Chronos had few words for the man as the system’s voice seed to be fading.
[You are evolvin-!]
Chronos didn’t complete his sentence as his voice faded into oblivion and Jason assud this was because of the overwhelming pain his body was undergoing.
Jason needed to pick himself up or he would be ripped apart.
[Assimilation of fragnt loading...!]
[Assimilation of fragnt... 10%!]
[Assimilation of fragnt... 20%!]
[Assimilation of fragnt... 45%!]
[Assimilation of fragnt... 75%!]
[Assimilation of fragnt... 99%!]
[Assimilation complete!]
The mont Chronos said this, Jason’s body beca as light as a feather, he didn’t know what it was that happened but he felt good.
He felt like he could do anything right now.
The zombie that was closest to him, Jason ripped its head off with a single slap, this showed that his physical abilities had been augnted.
Jason couldn’t believe the power he possessed, if it was with this power, there was no doubt that he could protect those he cared about.
Jason chuckled, he didn’t need to be so careful anymore because what could they do to him?
This was arrogance but Jason soon rembered Clentine and Franklin.
He clutched his head because this wasn’t him, Jason fell on one knee in visible pain.
This shouldn’t be happening considering he had assimilated the fragnt but this fragnt was part of Chronos.
Chronos was actively trying to wrestle Jason’s body from his control but Jason wasn’t giving in.
This was the first ti Chronos had done this and everything that Chronos did until now was to ensure this very result.
He knew how Jason was right to his core and he knew that the guilt of taking a life and not feeling remorse would make Jason view himself as a threat to those around him.
Because what if he hurts Clentine, or worse, Rachel?
However, Chronos made one miscalculation, he underestimated Jason’s resolve to live.
Jason wasn’t going to hand over his body to so parasite because he knew that Chronos was far too dangerous to be left unchecked.
"This is my body...!" Jason said, slowly getting back to his feet.
"This is my mind...!" Jason muttered, punching himself right in the face.
"And you Chronos, you’re my tool!" Jason’s nose was bleeding but he didn’t care about this.
Jason had not only retained his consciousness but he had managed to sohow subdue Chronos. Jason was infected by the fragnt and this ant that the fragnt could be used by him rather than Chronos since Chronos was made up of the sa material.
It allowed Jason to strip Chronos of its very essence and take control of it as it had just tried Jason.
[Congratulations! You have beco the Nexus!]
[Stats increase 20!]
Except this notification didn’t co in the form of a voice but rather, a pop-up bar he could visibly see and a smile encompassed Jason’s face.
"I see..." Jason muttered but what did it an to absorb the fragnt and how would this affect life as he knew it?
