He started to walk again until he heard footsteps coming from outside. He slowly walked toward the door, hiding against the wall. The footsteps grew louder with each step, and it was clear they weren't coming from a zombie.

He stopped hiding and pointed his gun at whoever was approaching. When he saw it was Augustine and Adam, he lowered his gun. "What are you both doing here?" he asked. "Sniper told us to come here. He said he couldn't contact you since you were here," Adam explained. "Where's Monroe?" Augustine asked. "Isaac and Stella took her. I'm looking for her," Bullet replied. "Stella? Who is Stella?" Adam asked. "She works for Isaac," Bullet answered.

They began walking and soon arrived at a room with a green light inside. They entered the room and found it empty, except for some monitors. "Isaac planted a bomb here too?" Adam asked. "Yes, but I don't know the timer. I need to stop that bomb before it explodes," Bullet said. "Now that we're here, Augustine and I will help you. Right, Augustine?" Adam said. "Ye... Yeah," Augustine replied. Bullet led the way, with Augustine and Adam following him. Bullet suddenly stopped. "Why?" Adam asked. "Isaac," Bullet said loudly, so Isaac could hear them. Bullet shot at Isaac, who also fired back. Augustine and Adam joined in, and Isaac was hit in the shoulder.

Suddenly, the wall crashed, and a massive zombie appeared. Bullet continued shooting at Isaac while Augustine and Adam focused on the giant zombie. "I haven't seen a zombie like this before," Adam said.

"Isaac!!" Bullet shouted, continuing to shoot. "You will never succeed, kid. The bomb is ready to explode. Anytime now, it can BOOM!! evil laugh Prepare yourself to die," Isaac taunted, then used a hook to escape. Augustine kept shooting the giant zombie, and once Isaac was gone, Adam shot the zombie too.

"I'll go after him. I'll go by myself," Bullet said, then ran away. Adam and Augustine continued fighting the huge zombies, which were also targeting them. The zombie was enormous, taking multiple hits but still not going down. When Augustine shot it again, the zombie went berserk, punching the floor, causing it to crack. After a third punch, the floor finally broke.

"Augustine!!" Adam shouted.

They were separated; Adam was on the side with the zombie. He kept shooting until he ran out of ammo and had no choice but to retreat. The zombie growled menacingly. "Adam! Jump, I'll catch you!" Augustine shouted from the opposite side. Adam glanced at him and then at the approaching zombie. He was backed up to the edge and saw how deep the chasm was—much deeper than he expected. "Just jump!!" Augustine shouted. Adam took a deep breath, then ran and leaped. Augustine managed to grab him, but the zombie was closing in fast. Augustine used all his strength to pull Adam up. "Hold on, Adam," Augustine said. Adam looked down, tears welling up as he saw how deep the chasm was. "Don't cry, dude. I'll get you up," Augustine said while continuing to pull. The zombie roared and slammed its arm into the floor where Augustine and Adam were. Augustine lost his balance but managed to stay upright.

"Go now, Augustine," Adam said. "No, I won't leave you," Augustine replied. "Save yourself. I'm happy to have been your partner," Adam said, then let go of Augustine's grip.

"Nooo!!!!" Augustine shouted, watching as Adam fell. The zombie roared louder and moved faster. Augustine quickly wiped his tears and shot at the zombies, managing to escape.

"Sh*t, where is that guy?" Bullet said, looking around but unable to spot Isaac. "That guy moves so fast," Bullet muttered, feeling disappointed in himself. He wiped his sweat and heard footsteps behind him.

"Looking for someone?" a familiar voice asked. Bullet turned around and saw Fletcher. "Fletcher," Bullet said. "Nice to see you again, police. I'm surprised you're still alive," Fletcher said.

"You're still here?" Bullet asked. "Yep, and so are you. Haven't found the antizen yet?" Fletcher said. "No, but I'll find it before you do," Bullet replied. Fletcher laughed. "I'm amazed you got fooled by my assistant," Fletcher said, confusing Bullet.

"Assistant?" Bullet asked. "Let's just say... I saw you earlier with my assistant, Ivy Edens. Looks like you two got close quickly," Fletcher said. "Ivy?" Bullet said, surprised.

"Looks like you're shocked. Didn't she mention it to you?" Fletcher said with a laugh. "Gotta go now. I still have to find the antizen," Fletcher said, then climbed down. Fletcher was exceptionally skilled at parkour.

"Sh*t, this place is so big. Where is she? Where are you, Monroe?" While walking, she heard someone talking, apparently to someone else. "Your partner Bullet seems serious now, looking for you. Look what I've got—he shot me," a woman's voice said. Monroe looked inside the room and saw Stella tied up, with the woman talking to her. "You deserve it," the woman said.

It was Monroe, finally. Stella laughed at what Monroe said.

"Even though he hit me, he still didn't manage to kill me like he said he would. So, still not impressed," Stella said. Ivy stepped forward and pointed her gun at Stella. Stella looked at her.

"Oh, you found us," Stella said. "Untie her and let her go," Ivy ordered Stella. Stella laughed again.

"Looks like you're smarter than the police officers," Stella said, walking toward Ivy. Ivy looked at Monroe, who was also watching. Stella tried to hit Ivy, but Ivy was alert and managed to dodge. They engaged in a physical fight, both skilled, until Stella pushed Ivy down. Ivy saw a gun nearby, grabbed it, and shot Stella in the chest. Stella was hit but managed to fight back. Ivy quickly got up.

"You're a good fighter but brainless," Ivy said, walking toward Stella. Stella, holding her chest, still attempted to attack Ivy but was too slow. Ivy shot Stella again, this time in the right side of her chest. Blood began to flow from Stella's mouth, and she knelt on the floor. Ivy quickly untied Monroe and, before Monroe could follow, Monroe shot Stella for the last time. Stella fell, lying on the floor, covered in blood.
