XXX. Dior Lee
It was midnight when a call woke Ferdinand from his shallow sleep. Groaningly sitting up, he glanced at the clock and saw it was only 3 AM in the morning. It seems that the called has been calling him since 5 hours ago, and there's already a hundred of missed calls. Puzzled, he checked the number and realized it was unknown. Too stressed these past few days, he couldn't help feeling irked, but he thought it was from work so he didn't say anything and just called back.  It rang a few seconds, before a baritone voice sounded from the speaker. [Hello. Is it you, Pa?] The voice sounded raspy, as if the owner had just woken up, but the moment it registered to Ferdinand's mind, he almost threw the phone at the wall in shock. It couldn't be... Ferdinand gulped, his hands trembling as his eyes turned watery, turning red because of mixed emotions.  “..

XXXIII. Hostage
The chase finally commenced. Farrah wasn't surprised when everything went into this direction. The moment she discovered Dior's transformation, she knew this kind of scenario will happen. She wasn't afraid. She was calm, extremely calm that it was so surprising. If it was others who's in these kind of situation, they'll probably break down in moment now.They been running for several days, and it's getting tough as day passes by. There's also helicopters flying everywhere in the sky, military cars in every highways, a voice coming from a megaphone repeatedly calling for them to surrender, and the cries of the restless undead.Farrah gasped, drinking water as she glanced at the small hole on the wall, observing the flying aircrafts patroling the area.“How can we escape without being seen by these aircrafts?” She eventually asked, still panting. Dior blinked, but didn't answer immediately. Truth to be told, he was also tired after running

XXXIV. Hostages
It was getting harder and harder to move unnoticed, there's people tracking them down, and even though they try so hard to escape in fast speed, it seems that fate is really against them now.  Hiding behind the tall grasses, Farrah frowned as she gazed upon the unresting helicopters surveying the areas. “How could there be so many helicopters?” She didn't dare assume that their country has this many aircrafts, she couldn't help but to doubt. It's making her feeling irked because it's limiting their possible escape routes. “The higher ups probably asked neighboring countries for help, I'm now the greatest threat to everyone after all.” Dior smiled self-deprecatingly, but there's no fear in his face. Looking at the exhausted Farrah, he sighed in distress. “Fae, come here, eat first. You haven't eaten since yesterday... If this continues, you'll gonna die not because of these people but because of starvation.&

XXXV. TWO FARRAH
Dior used zombies to as deterrence to their chasers, and though he didn't order them to attack humans, it is no longer in his control if the zombies attacks them. If they're really pushed into a situation where he needs to mobilize zombies, then he will not hesitate. They have escaped several cities now, with no intended direction. They both knew that if they continously go to one direction, it is likely that they would get ambushed or cornered.  It took one and half day before they arrived at the most populated city of the country—N City.  N City is known for its countless trip destinations, commercial districts, residential, logistics area, and many more. People used to call this place jack of all trades, because this is a city that seems to be so complete. Everything can be seen here, and people used to love this place so much. But that was before. When the outbreak happened, this place became one of t

XXXVI. Just This Time
The sky was dark and brimming with gloomy atmopshere, coupled with the chilly wind that can wake goosebumps upon skins. Even though it doesn't rain, the sun refused to go out, and the temperature dropped ever since yesterday.  Any time by now, the rain will fall and it will certainly be a heavy downpour. The Governess stared at the sky by the window, and kneaded her forehead. She's so tired already, so is her men, but even a single sign of the monarch can't be found. If she didn't saw the recording handed by Major General Castro and felt the fluctuation of a sinister and domineering energy from T City, she would say that the monarch didn't really exist. The only proof that he exist is the peculiar behaviors of the undead hordes that either blocks road, or attacks them directly. It was a great comfort that they weren't blindly chasing. It seems that the monarch's not far away and just hiding tightly that no one can s

XXXVII. DEAL
Gripping his hands tightly, Farrah and Dior stared at each others eyes. Both of them doesn't know whether they made the right decision or not, but since it's here, they can no longer step back and regret what they had chosen.  “Are you ready?” Farrah asked, voice trembling slightly. She felt her throat constrict, and her chest tightening. Dior noticed it and kissed his forehead. “I'm ready. Let's go?” He calmly replied. Smiling, Farrah nodded at him. Both of them walked towards the exit of the building steps by steps, fingers entangled with each other. Each breath represent their emotions, even some kind of anticipation. Anticipation that they would no longer run, and this would be the start of dawn not only for them, but for the whole human population. The roaring wind caused by the propellers swept through the land, throwing dust everywhere coupled with the pungent smell of decomposing bodi

XXXVIII. Birth
Dior was immediately imprisoned inside B City's Laboratory, but with Ferdinand in tow, Farrah's fear lessened greatly. She trust her father that he will protect him from harm, and wished that the antidote would be developed sooner or later.  She went back to their house to take care of DaeDae, so Eden can go back to her work again. Though Farrah was also included in the research team, her profession was quite different so her task were minimal. She's either delivering food, washing the dishes, and organizing documents. It's enough for Farrah, as long as she can see Dior. Dior was imprisoned inside a huge glass tube, floating in a nutritional liquid. He was unconscious, but his brain activity was wide awake, seen on the apparatus outside just beside the glass cylindrical cabin.  At first, Farrah was against Dior being unconscious, but her Father calmly explained to her that it's better for him to be asleep to le

XXXIX. L City Base's Fall
The rainy season has finally started, roads are always flooded inconveniencing a lot of people inside the base. The rain didn't stop for a week, and even when it stopped, the sun still refused to make appearance. The weather undoubtedly affected everyone's mood, only those overly optimistic ones can smile from ear to ear. Just like Eden who's obviously lovestruck that she can't stop smiling from morning to evening. Farrah even began to believe that Eden's lips were sculpted that way because she can't seem to close her mouth at all. Her pearly white teeth were proudly shown to anyone. “You don't feel your muscles cramping smiling all day?” Farrah chuckled, leaning on her chair, steaming coffee placed on her wooden table. Eden shyingly blinked, a red tint spreading over her plump cheeks. “No. I'm not smiling since morning alright. I'm just being normal here. You guys are so weird.”
