The Diary Of The Dead

Step 14 : Evolve

The mall went quiet . It's like the whole sound disappears and we were trapped inside a vacuum .

Cecil were hiding with me behind a counter from one of the stores .

Our only vision is depending on how far the light ray can travel .

We were breathing heavily as the air in there is heavy and dusty .

Tom will sound the speaker if there's a disturbance from the outside . Since it's quiet , there will be no problem hearing it .

Cecil and I scouted the building . Tracking the hunter every possible way .

Food tracks . By food I mean rotten flesh .

Foot track . Anything .

We move slowly in a crouch position .

As we sneak deeper into the mall , the less Undead we met .

It's strange , I looked at the signboard .

*North*

So I guess this is the North zone .

Cecil told me that we better split up to find this Hunter . But I disagree .

That would be a problem .

Eventhough we covers more area , it will destroy our formation if one of us got killed .

So ill rather not to take the risk .

Suddenly , a sound of a nail dropped onto the ground was heard .

Cecil and I went back to back position . Making sure the hunter is not going to attack .

I focuses my light into a corner . And popped out a rat from one of the DIY (Do it yourself ) stores .

*PRAANGGG*

One of the glass windows shatters .

*PRANGGGG*

Goes another one .

I maintained my position as the dark mall were filled with a glass breaking sound .

"What are you trying to do .. " Cecil whispers to himself .

He grabbed his Army knife that were slitted beside his boot .

He prepared it by grabbing it by one hand and the other hand defending him .

The glass shatters continues . One after the other .

Its weird . He haven't screech for awhile since me and Cecil were sneaking around .

The undead were also leaving the area . It seems like they were preparing for something .

What , What are you trying to do ?

The sound stopped . Glasses were raining on top of us .

We cover our eyes to avoid any of the glasses from entering it .

Shit .

The floor were filled with shattered glasses .

We were surrounded by silence again .

He growled . Lurking around on the top floor . Glass cracking as he moves .

Come here you little piece of shit . My blood were boiling .

Enraged by fear and the thought of Jack .

Cecil stand quiet . Shining his Light on the top floor . He tapped me and showed the escalator . Well obviously a non - functional one .
