My Zombie Game

"Sir, we haven't found anything yet," said a man in a black, shiny suit. The man had black hair and a muscular physique.

Meanwhile, there was another man in a red suit and a redhead sitting in front of a group of five people, with a man in a lab coat kneeling on the floor.

The man was almost six feet tall and had a slim body.

"Are you sure you have checked everywhere in the laboratory?" asked the man sitting on the chair, puffing out a cigarette as the smoke evaporated.

"Yes, sir," replied the bulky man who spoke earlier.

Sighing, the man stood up from his seat and walked towards the end of the room before facing the kneeling man.

"You don't want to speak, huh? But I still have another way to extract the truth from you."

"For the last time, where is my package?"

The gag that was strapped on the man's mouth was removed, granting him permission to speak.

Coughing a few times, the man shook his head as he looked at the man standing before him and said, "No matter what, I will not let you know where the package is."

Sighing in frustration, the boss man said, "Then you leave me no choice but to force it out of you, Leo." After saying that, the boss man dashed towards Leo, his hand turning slightly red.

Thrusting his fist forward, the boss man's fist hit Leo in the abdomen, sending him backwards.

But that wasn't enough.

Before Leo's body could touch the wall on the opposite side, it was caught by a hand, dragging him up.

"Are you ready to talk?" the boss man asked, bringing Leo's face close to his.

"Even if you kill me, I will never tell you anything," replied Leo with a bloody face.

"Then this isn't enough to make you talk," the boss man swung Leo around by throwing him upward. He kicked off the ground and went after Leo.

He was able to catch up to him in mid-air. "After this, I hope you don't die on me," the boss said before swinging his hand at Leo's chest.

Bang...!

It was hard for the six men to believe that Leo would survive such a strike, let alone answer anything.

Boom!

Leo's back smashed and he crashed into the ground, holding his stomach as he coughed.

Coughing out a few times, Leo shook his head and looked up at the boss man. "Never," he said, blood still trickling from his mouth.

The other guards were shocked to hear this. After all the beating, he was still willing to endure more just to keep some stupid secret. They still didn't understand why their boss was after it in the first place.

"Are you telling me that all this means nothing to you?" the boss shouted, his anger growing. It was now frustrating him that even after the beating, Leo was not ready to comply.

"What exactly do you want? Money, women, support, you name it. Just tell me where the package is." It almost sounded like he was pleading with him.

"I can't. You don't understand what that thing can do to the world," Leo replied.

Just then, the bulky man who had spoken earlier received a notification on his phone.

"Boss, I think you should see this," the man said, handing his phone over to his boss.

The boss took the phone and read the message on the messenger.

After reading it, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"They finally hacked into your system, only to find out that you launched that stone back into space along with a card. What does that mean? You have some explaining to do!"

"That stone is magnetic, so it's dangerous. You know what that stone could do to weak people if it came into this world. I had to send it back to space to prevent a catastrophic event that could befall Earthlings."

"I don't care! You took my dream and launched it into space. How dare you!" the boss clenched his fist, ready to finish Leo off. But then he heard a voice calling to him.

"Why are you calling me?" the boss asked.

"I think you need to see this for yourself."

"Bring him along with me, and have everyone keep their eyes on the sky. If there's any sign of the asteroid, notify me," the boss commanded. But the voice spoke again.

"I don't think that's necessary. Just come up here," the voice said.

"You better have a good reason for interrupting me," muttered the boss before walking out of the room.

Not long after, the boss appeared on the roof of the building.

"Now tell me, what exactly..." the boss couldn't even finish his sentence, as his words got stuck in his mouth.

"What is this?"

"That's what I was trying to stop. It's too late. The world is doomed," Leo said, holding onto the guard for support.

Hearing this, the boss clenched his fist tightly.

"Let's get out of here before we get caught in the mess."

Meanwhile, in a small apartment in the slums, two siblings could be seen hiding behind a couch. They were so identical that someone might think they were twins, but the only difference was that one was taller than the other.

These two siblings were Nate and Pete.

Nate was an eighteen-year-old boy, while Pete was sixteen.

Looking at them, one could see the fear on their faces.

"Are you sure this will work?" Pete asked Nate.

"It has to. If it doesn't, then we're dead. Just remember to play your part well," Nate said.

Nate was an average-height eighteen-year-old boy with a muscular build, black bushy hair, and a round face. The same could be said for Pete.

The only difference was that Pete was not as muscular as Nate, but in the future, they would be the same.

The reason they were hiding behind the couch was their father.

Nate's father was the leader of a gang that terrorized the streets. But that wasn't the reason they were hiding. They wanted to launch a surprise attack on him, to beat him up or even kill him.

Their father had been treating them so badly that he had nearly killed their mother. But that wasn't all, he had also taken out his anger on them. Today, they had decided to fight back and put an end to it.

The truth was that Nate knew very well they had no chance of winning the fight. He would rather die fighting than die watching his father kill him.

Just then, the door of the house was sent flying open, and Nate and Pete could hear their father's footsteps entering the room.

"Where are they?"
