Short Stories of The Apocalypse

Episode 2. A Zombie's Last Kiss

Carter had always known that the world was a dangerous place. But he never could have imagined just how perilous it would become. The zombie apocalypse had swept across the land like a wave, leaving nothing but death and destruction in its wake. Now, the streets were filled with the undead, and Carter had to fight every day just to stay alive.

Despite the chaos, Carter was determined to find a way out. He knew that somewhere out there, there was a place where he could be safe. So he set out on a journey, armed only with his wits and a trusty shotgun.

For weeks, Carter wandered through the ruins of the city. He dodged hordes of zombies, scavenged for food and supplies, and slept in abandoned buildings. It was a tough and lonely life, but he kept going, driven by a fierce determination to survive.

One day, as he was searching for supplies in an old convenience store, he heard a noise from the back of the building. It sounded like someone was crying. Carter cautiously made his way to the back of the store, shotgun at the ready.

There, he found a young woman named Maya. She had been hiding in the store for days, ever since the zombie outbreak began. Maya was beautiful, with long dark hair and piercing green eyes. Carter felt an instant connection to her, and he knew that he couldn't just leave her there.

Over the next few days, Carter and Maya got to know each other. They talked about their pasts, their hopes and dreams, and their fears for the future. They found that they had a lot in common, despite the fact that they came from very different backgrounds.

As they journeyed together, their friendship deepened into something more. They laughed and joked, and Carter found himself falling more deeply in love with Maya every day. But he knew that it could never work. After all, the world was ending, and they were both just trying to survive.

Despite his reservations, Carter couldn't help but feel drawn to Maya. He found himself looking forward to their conversations, their quiet moments together, and the feeling of her hand in his. They were two people against the world, and somehow, it felt like enough.

But as they journeyed on, disaster struck. In a desperate attempt to protect Maya from a horde of zombies, Carter was bitten. He knew that it was only a matter of time before he turned into one of the undead.

Maya was devastated. She knew that there was no cure for the zombie virus, and she was heartbroken at the thought of losing Carter. But Carter was determined to make the most of the time he had left. He wanted to spend every moment with Maya, to make the most of their love while he still could.

As the days passed, Carter's condition worsened. He could feel the virus spreading through his body, turning him into something else. But through it all, Maya stood by his side. She held his hand, wiped away his tears, and whispered words of comfort in his ear.

Finally, the day came when Carter could no longer hold on. He knew that he was about to turn into one of the undead, but he didn't care. All he wanted was to spend one more moment with Maya, to look into her eyes and tell her how much he loved her.

In the end, Carter and Maya faced the apocalypse together. They stood hand in hand, surrounded by the walking dead, but they were not afraid. They had each other, and that was all that mattered. As the world burned around them, they closed their eyes and shared one final kiss, a symbol of the love that had sustained them through the darkest of times.
