Civilization Destroyed

Chapter 6

          This was it. December 31st, 2019, the new years eve party of Jacob Cedric's third year in office. Now, this is his fourth. At new years eve, I'm doing what I do everyday, while everybody is celebrating with their families, I am on a mission to kill Jacob Cedric. I work out everyday, gather ammo for my guns, and defend my house. I knew the day would come when Jacob Cedric would retaliate. So, I spent the day watching the news, and the other T.V shows that I like, and fortifying my house for protection. At this point, my house has Steel Slabs on my windows, wooden slabs near my doors, and guns near every corner of my house. I still carry the MP5 that I got, and still have full munitions.

          That night, while I am waiting for the fireworks to show, I hear people shouting, barbecuing, and more to celebrate their New Year's Eve. Suddenly, as the fireworks come, people are screaming and shouting at something. It came from the west part of my house, and then, a loud warp. It was like a radiation blast, but much bigger. On the news it said that there was a project to contain groups of criminals in a certain Radius to slowly kill them. The project was called SIN. It stood for Survival Instinct Nuke. Now, the nuclear weapon is all around our house. The next day, people are in shock, calling the authorities, but nobody responds. Protests start to play out, people are killing each other on busy intersections, grocery stores are being looted, violence breaks out on the streets. Detroit has now become a madhouse. 

          I pull out the computer, because now I know that Jacob Cedric is back for his revenge. I check the GPS maps which still work, and take a look at Michigan's maps. I take all the weapons and put on armor. I take one of the backpacks that I had, and loaded my hunting rifle on it. I strap my vest and my MP5 on, so that I can protect myself. I knew that survival was the only thing that matters now. Now that the map has loaded, it looks something like this:

          So, I gathered my items, and stayed in my house. According to the news, which is now inactive, the bomb gives a time of fourteen days to get to the center, in which time, I could use to escape, or contact people. So, it was on, people all around the city are causing chaos, killing, protesting on the street. This is truly the bubble of chaos that Jacob Cedric has created. Some say that this could mean worse than death. In this case, it is, civilization is now destroyed. I wait, and wait for the violence to cool down before I step out of the house. During the day, three people tried to break in to the house, all of which were shot on premises. 

          That night, I closed the house, putting some of the wood on the door, to keep it closed. The next day, the radiation storm was closing in quickly. I took my materials, and went out of the house, searching for the next place to stay, away from the storm. I look at the map, for a safer place to go, and that is, the old meat factory. As I was going, I saw someone along the road, he stood there, and pointed an M9 at me. He told me, "Give me your belongings!". I took my hunting rife, and tell him, "No way" I fire the gun, and he falls backward. He had no protection on him, he only had a backpack, and an M9, loaded only with five bullets. I take the bullets, and move on. 

          I wander through the area, until I stumbled upon the Rouge Park Golf Course. I went inside, only to find five dead bodies, including one police officers. I went on the second floor to see what was there, and all I found were old backpacks, and signs that said, "Let us out of this Hellhole!". The only thing that was useful there was some water bottles, and granola bars. I went onto the field to find a golf cart. The keys were inside already, so I took the food and water, and went to the golf cart. I drove out of the golf course, and headed towards the factory. 

          When I arrived at the factory, the sky turned orange-ish, because the sun was beginning to set. I entered, turning on the car headlights, to see if there were any people, but what I found, was a large truck, that does not work, with food inside it. Well, at this point I have no vehicles, because the golf cart ran out of gas. So, I decided to stay in the golf cart, and camp there for the night. I looked up at the stars, near the hole in the roof, and wondered if anyone saw what happened, and what the rest of the world thought of this...
