Zombies Everywhere Chp 1

#MC POV#

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OOOOOFFF," I say landing in a bed after seeing my own brother Isekai me

"What is going on?" I ask myself wanting to throw up

(So you are my new partner) Says a voice in my head and I will forever deny that I screamed like a little girl

"Boosted Gear, Ddraig is that you," I ask my left hand as it has a glowing neon green circle on the back of it

(Yes, partner, and I suggest you keep talking to me in your head, as we are in an undead world) He says to which I stop all motions and the reality of it hits me

I stay still for a few minutes with Ddraig calling me

("I can hear you, enough") I say to him in my mind as I process that my own brother Isekai'ed me

I try to remember what happened and in my memories I can remember that I was walking home from school one day which was just across the street and people came out from a car that was near me and quickly beat me up, stabbing me multiple times before I was shot in the head killing me and waking up again and Isekai'ed

("Oh, that's rough buddy") says Draig while I am just numb at the moment

I slowly look around and see everything looks so vibrant

I look at my hands and for the first time

I compare how I was before to now and I am incredibly aware of how much of a difference there is now

My mind

It feels as if a huge weight is gone

Like something was pressing down on my head for my whole life and now it's gone

("Partner, how are you feeling?") He asks

("Confused,") I answer him as I take in my surroundings

I am in what I am going to assume is my bedroom

Everything is here

Posters, PS4, Katana...

Katana

I look towards it and see it next to my bed

("So it really did happen,") I say as the reality of the situation kicks in

("Yes, partner it did,") Says Ddraig while neon green light shines from the back of my left hand

I let out a small sigh while I can feel my heartbeat increase in speed

I try to calm myself down for a few minutes

("Partner, you need to get a move on, you need to find someplace safe") I hear Ddraig say and I shake my head

I grab the Dragon Sword as it glows a bluish violet and it feels like I reunited with an old friend

I think about the Gate of Babylon opening and a golden circle appears

"So, this is magic," I say a bit in awe

I look at the jewel in the Dragon Sword, I take it off and put it in the Gate

I feel a certain warmth wash over me

("Partner, your power increased although by a very small amount barely worth anything really, but it did. Although, I am sure if you were to put the Dragon eye into your weapon it will increase it a lot more") says Ddraig as I am still looking at the portal before I make it close

("The Gate of Babylon by itself is incredibly weak. Its real power is the ability to empower itself and its owner by using 'valuables') I told him as I went around my room getting anything of value and placing it in the Gate

Nothing too valuable, but I have to start somewhere

("How are you keeping it together?") Asks Ddraig after a few minutes of me just getting my entire room stuffed in the Gate

("I have no idea, I am pretty sure, I am still in shock,") I tell him as I finish getting everything from my room

I look at the door for a few moments and remember the first aid kit that was at home

I go out of the room and see the rest of the house

It is the same as my own

I look at some pictures and take them with me

I go to the kitchen careful not to make a sound and knives, pans, matches, and plates

Then I begin to get every bit of food I can find and place it in the Gate

("Partner look outside, I believe something is moving") Ddraig tells me as I slowly move towards a window and move the curtain a bit to see a Zombie trying to bite the window

Its flesh rotting and I am sure if I were to go outside, it would smell horrible

("Ddraig, how did you know?") I ask him

("I can see your memories, you saw it but didn't notice it until I went over your recent memories,") He answers and I shake my head and see that it will get dark soon

("Ddraig, if you saw my memories does that mean you know why I accepted the elemental natures for my chakra even though I would have such a small amount?") I ask him

("Yes, however, if I were to try and change your chakra system myself there is a huge chance that it would fail,") He tells me as I go around the house getting anything of value even my grandparent's jewelry

I go to the restroom located in the middle of the house and lock the door

("There is a workaround that we could use") says Ddraig

("What is it?) I ask him

("I can turn other parts of your body into that of a dragon. The dragonification process will then turn the rest of your body into one of a dragon's including this Chakra system without much trouble except that it will take some time,") He says and I get to thinking about what part of my body, I want to turn into one of a dragon first

("What about the bone in the ear? I remember reading about the human ears and how there is supposed to be a bone there,") I tell him

("Interesting, yes there is. Since the process will be gradual it will help you turn your eyes and even your brain into one of a dragon's given enough time of course then the rest of your body,") says Ddraig

("Can you begin the process right now?") I ask as having enhanced hearing will be incredibly beneficial

("Yes,") He answered

("Do it") I tell him as warmth spreads from my left hand all the way to my left ear and goes to my right ear

After, a few minutes it's over

("That was tough,") says Ddraig panting

("How so?") I ask

("Remember that you are a Dragonborn, and from what I can tell your soul was trying to take in the energy I was using however, it seems to be struggling. It is probably due to me being a dragon from another world entirely. It was as if I had to fight your soul even though it would not be able to devour me") He says and goes silent

("Thanks Ddraig") I tell him

("Wait a minute, shouldn't I be a dragon or a type of one already? I mean I do have dragon blood") I ask Ddraig

("Remember the different types of a dragon") He says to which I nod and feel a bit remorseful for not waiting as I know that there are dragon-slaying weapons in many worlds

I sit down on the toilet and get some canned food and open it

I stare at it for a bit before eating

("Partner, I know that this is a bit much for you. But, don't shut yourself out") He tells me and I can feel a tear come out of my eye

("I am in a whole new world entirely after being murdered. I have a new body and my mind. It's a bit much right now so I am still processing everything that has happened") I tell him as I try to keep it together but I can feel myself slipping

("It may not be much consolation right now. But, I am also here with you") He tells me

("Thanks Ddraig. I mean it") I tell him as I am not alone

After I finish eating throw the trash away and get as much toilet paper as I can and put it in the Gate

("Why?")

("What? I am always going to need toilet paper aren't I") I tell him as I put in the rolls in the Gate

("This would have been amazing for me")

("Really?") I ask Ddraig

("Yes, imagine having a storage room that I could put my hoard in and it empowers me the bigger my hoard is. It sounds amazing") He answers and I smile as it is rather perfect and I have no doubt my brother set it up for me

("Ddraig, I am going to test out my magic and I would like your opinion on it") I tell him

("Sure, go ahead although do remember that there are undead outside") He tells me and I freeze

I stay silent for a bit

("You forgot didn't you?") He says

("Yeah,") I answer him

I shake my head and focus on the information on the bound sword spell and it works

Barely

I feel drained as if I just ran a mile back in PE class

("Is it supposed to look like that?") Asks Ddraig

("I don't think so,") I answer as I look at the sword which of course looks like a Daedric sword but its edge is dull and the purplish aura is much more prevalent almost covering the sword completely

I move it around gently and it is weird

It feels heavy but at the same time it feels light

Such a weird feeling

I lay on the sink and it doesn't disappear for some reason

In the game it always did

("It could be that the duration that it stays in the game is the time that it stays materialized") Suggests Ddraig and I think it is plausible due to the game saying that it stays for 60 seconds which translates to an hour

How do I know?

I have a tablet with a connection to the internet and I am reading about it right now

("Maybe, I can...") I feel the Gate responding and soon I have a purple book in front of me

("'wow'") Both Ddraig and I say

I open the book and it is very informative especially since it does say that the books are to help me out a bit

Thanks, bro

Although, it does also say that this will be the only help that will be given

I begin to read the book and it is very useful to help me identify my mistakes

First of I need to imagine the weapon having a sharp edge otherwise it will be dull

The sharper I imagine it, the sharper it will be

However, it does take more Magicka the more I sharpen it

The effect of mystic binding will increase the power of the weapon overall, however, it will take more Magicka to apply it but it is a minor alteration to the spell

Same case with the Oblivion Binding and Soul Stealer

There is some information about Dual Casting as well

Using both hands to use the spell helps a bit with decreasing the cost of the spell and helps it last longer alongside stabilizing the spell

Once it is fully summoned the user can 'banish' the bound weapon and some Magicka may return to the user depending on how long it was out

I have the knowledge of how to use the spells but no actual idea of how to use them effectively which is noticeable due to how unstable my Bound Sword is

I grab the sword and follow the instruction to 'banish' and I can feel a small amount of my Magicka return making me feel slightly better

("These spells seem very flexible compared to the ones I have made,") Comments Ddraig

("How so?") I ask him

("Dragon spells are much more rigid and difficult to alter due to their power. Even the magic of the devils while benefitting from being able to use their creativity in order to make some of their spells they would have to use a considerable amount of magic in order to use a spell not suited to them,") He explains

I flip to the next page

("Elemental imbuing,") I read

('With bound weapons, it is possible to imbue elemental magic into them. However, one must have a firm grasp on Destruction magic in order to be able to imbue the chosen element on the bound weapon. Most users of elemental bound weapons usually have the bound weapon spell in one hand and in the other the elemental spell that they want to imbue into the weapon...') I read and quickly turn on a candle and continue to read the book

I close the book halfway through and go to sleep on the tub as tomorrow I am going to go outside and see if I can get to Walmart

I get a pillow and a few blankets and go to sleep

#NEXT MORNING#

I groan as I crack my neck

I probably should have gone to sleep on a bed

I rub the back of my neck and I use the healing spell for the first time

A golden light surrounds me as the spell quickly does its job and my neck feels better

("That is really useful,") Comments Ddraig and I have to agree

Even though it is one of the starting spells in Skyrim in real life it could be a lifesaver

I get the Oakflesh spell book and read it as much as possible and cast once to see how it feels

I have a greenish aura with a tint of blue around me

("Hmm, partner going over your memories shouldn't it be possible for you to increase your magical resistance through Alteration, or even absorb it? As I can see in multiple memories of you going over these perk trees and those perks are there,") says Ddraig, and I freeze at that

("I don't know, maybe") I tell him as I had no idea how to do that

I shake my head and look outside for a bit

I am looking for food, water, weapons, jewelry, or anything of value really

I am going to wait until the Oakflesh spell runs out and I am capable of casting it again

I go back to the restroom and begin to read the Bound Sword spell again

After an hour I go to the front door after putting everything away and cast both the Oakflesh and the Bound Sword spells

I also bring out the Boosted Gear although, it's still in its Twice Critical form

It is rather easy to bring out and I can only boost twice which is more than enough in case I have to run away

I look outside and see the coast is clear but one zombie is still on the window

I slowly open the door and go outside and quickly stab the zombie in the head

The sword easily pierces its skull and kills it instantly, I pull the sword out and cover my nose as it smells absolutely disgusting

I try to ignore the smell and look around quickly

There are no zombies on this street, but I can definitely hear a few of them

I walk around and notice that this is my old neighborhood and my high school is still near my home

This means Walmart should be in the same place

I go over there and jog my way there making sure to kill a few zombies that I find

For some reason, I have no reservations about killing them which makes me a bit worried that I might be a psychopath

("You are not one,")

("Really?") I ask Ddraig

("Yes, if you were a psychopath you wouldn't feel bad that you are one. If you need further proof is how you always for the head although it is to kill them quicker, you are also doing it to put them to rest,") He says and I feel a bit better but not much

I arrive at the parking lot and see around 30 zombies

Maybe more

I look at a watch that I put on which thankfully has a timer on how long everything is going to last

("They seem to be decomposing, which is good since it means that they will be much slower,") Comments Ddraig

("Should I kill every Zombie in town? I mean there was supposed to be around 6 thousand people around,") I ask Ddraig although, I don't know what to feel about 'killing' that many

("Probably for the best. As you have not even touched this Chakra of yours since you don't want to exhaust yourself and leave yourself vulnerable, it would be a good place to train in. Keep in mind that you could also use this dragon language of yours in case things get dangerous.") He said and I agreed

Honestly, the Thu'um is something that I did try to experiment on.

I looked up the shouts online and printed multiple copies of the shouts and I am happy to say that I can speak Dovahzul and quite possibly use the Thu'um

I am not using a shout while I am still testing things out

I tried to use Dragon Aspect but I didn't actually say it

MUL QAH DIIV

Even thinking about saying it makes me feel something move inside my very being

Something about my very being trying to impose its own will upon everything

In the game's lore, it is possible to increase the skill and powers by meditating and thinking about the words of power

This particular shout is something that I am going to use just in case I need to

In the game, it has a duration of 300 seconds

For me, it has a duration of 5 hours and a cooldown of 24 hours

Well, 19 hours really since the shout's cooldown starts immediately, so I can use it every 19 hours

As for Chakra

If I use every bit of it I am going to suffer through Chakra exhaustion for a few days due to me having so little of it

I can't afford to stay in one place for long when I am going through Chakra exhaustion

("Let's do this,") I say to Ddraig and I move toward the zombies killing them one by one

Some of them are slow, others are fast

A few of the fast ones nearly got me but I manage to cut them down

In a few minutes, it's done

I close my eyes for a moment as I think everything is finally beginning to set in

"I am sorry," I tell them and go into the store silently

("They are not opening,") I tell Ddraig as I don't want to see if it has alarms

("Force them open")

I sigh

("I hope I don't regret this") I tell myself placing my sword in between the electric doors and try to force them open

"Alright, boosting time," I say

(BOOST)

I feel strength rush through me but it's still not enough as I am still 8 years old

(BOOST)

I open the doors with difficulty even as I hear something break

I repeat the process with the next set of doors

(Why didn't you break the windows they are glass?) asks Ddraig

("I am going to be here a while getting everything I can,") I answer him as I give a once over and make sure the store is clear

(RESET)

I pant as I can feel the exhaustion hit me

After a few minutes, I am sure I have cleared everything

Just around a dozen zombies

I go back to the entrance I forced open and close them just as the timer on my Oakflesh runs out

("Time to loot") I say while going to the jewelry section of the store

I find it pretty easily and raise my sword to stab through the glass

As I slash at it disappears as its time ran out

"Oh, for the love of..." I say while hitting it with the Boosted Gear and the glass cracks

("You do remember you are eight again right,") Comments Ddraig as I am embarrassed by this

"Shut it," I tell him as I grab something to break the glass cases and boost myself twice and break them

(RESET)

("It's not so bad right now,") I tell Ddraig

("You resetting prevented some of the backlash") He says

"AAAAAhhhhh, that makes sense, I guess," I tell him as I grab all of the jewelry that I can

I get rings, necklaces, earrings, and some watches and place them in the Gate

("Did it increase my power?") I ask Ddraig

("Barely even noticeable and I am in your soul") He says and I sigh

"It's going to take a while," I say and go and collect everything I can

("Partner, what are you going to call yourself now?") Asked Ddraig

I thought about it for a moment

"How about..."
