The zombies was quite fast, he disappear completely along my eyesight. What is left is the aftermath of the bulling of the zombies towards the unknown.

more zombies converging to the wreckage site, but due to slowness of the zombies. They unable to catch up towards the mutant zombies.

as for me... looking the crowding of the zombies, i immediately flee away to avoid being circle in by the zombies.

looking back towards the unknown being. There is this feeling of peculiarity. What is that being? is it really a zombies? or mutated zombies? and why it is here? and how it come here? and the bigger question, is it hostile to humanities? etc.

For now what i can say was that, the being very hostile to regular zombies and perhaps the regular zombies is a food source.

and now come a big question of where it goes to and what attract his attention.

Slowly and carefully i follow the the trail left behind by the big fellas.

It is not too hard to track the "Mutated Zombies". The place it goes was a cemetery.

Due to unprecedented plague 5 years ago, ten of thousand people died in this city alone. As a result the cemetery were almost as wide as 8 block to accommodate those deceased.

Till last year there is a plan to transfer old burial ground and cremate the remain and put it a rest into the ocean as a final tribute.

But with huge bill ensued and the dawn of apocalypse age.

Those plan will never be execute.

and now the mutated zombies roaming around the vicinity of the area

After careful navigation i've arrived at the cemetery door, the huge door once stood closed firm is now left broken .

Then after a few second, a loud boom heard from the opposite hill of the graveyard,

cloud of dust scattering to the air,

and a dark gloomy aura permeate surround my current area causing my pore to stiffen and my hair all goosebumps.

Another moment of deep thought run through my mind, my body sense great danger and my brain curiosity dampen due to the sudden adrenaline kicking in.

For a few minutes, i decided to just survey the area from afar, best if it is within higher point of view and the hill may serve that function.

I carefully tread forth to one of the mountain nearby and at the same time surveying the surrounding for any hidden zombies and danger.

Although it is at dawn but there is a lot of mist permeating through the cemetery area.

And the mist is quite chilling and caused my skin pore tightened.

And after through a few of cemetery section, i felt like i was been watched by someone but i didn't notice anyone around when i checked back.

As when my instinct warned me to go back, the mist strengthened and the road disappear... at that time, i cursed at the sudden changes.

"Shit.... this does not look good " as i murmur to myself.

I look back at my objective and saw the mist is quite light at that place....

i calm myself and proceed through the cemetery at a faster pace.

This is due to eventual thickening of the mist of my surrounding..... at which i do not know why is this happening...

As i keep moving faster... the mist gradually swallow up the path ahead of me.... but at that time suddenly, another booming sound heard loudly nearby..... then from my observation, the thickening stopped and the environment started to light up and i was able to look path ahead of me...

i didn't dally to figure up what is happening, and i look back but unfortunately i can see only hundred meter behind at which i believe the exit is at least few kilometer through the path behind or more.... what still the same is that small mountain ahead of me that is still visible.

I scratch my head... and take a note for this insane decision of mine.. due to curiosity i neglected the fact that lives in this apocalypses world is cheap.

I may inadvertently digging my own graves right now.... what is next is to arrive at that mountain and figure out the direction towards the exit..

This is due to the surrounding cemetery was surrounded by high wall in which was to prevent grave robber from stealing mementos from the graves. Meanwhile the pathway is narrow and interconnective to other pathway that make the whole cemetery pathway a maze.

My mind is now focused on exit and does not care anymore to what interest the big mutated zombies... i ran and ran.... and i jump through the graves... in which i overheard a creepy moan.. from the graves...

but i ignore it and keep on running and jumping like a friggin ninja...

After a long and sweaty exercise, i finally arrived at the peak of the mountain.

I Overlook at my surrounding and gasped at the sight.

It is like when i was on high rise building that piercing the sky and was surrounded by white cloud.

From the horizon, i can saw the awakening of sun.. but due to the mountainous terrain, the land below me still cover in darkness.

Then another loud boom resonate again and i quickly fix my gaze towards the sound source.

Then, i gasped again in surprise....

What surprise me that, that huge Mutated zombies that seems invisible to the normal zombie is now cover with flesh injuries as black blood dripping from its body and what surprise me the most is that, his opponent was wearing some oversize white cloak with a reaper within his hand..... what surprise me was that the entity was whitish translucent.

If my mind serves me correct. If I could correlate the description to this world dictionary... that thing was a friggin Ghost!!.... a friggin ghost fighting a mutated zombie!!...

What the heck is going in this world!!.... is it the judgement day already and we are friggin died already and now in afterlife world?

As i mutter in shock... the fight between those entities continues... The Mutated Zombies began to speed up his pace stampeding the Ghost Like Reaper.

Then, when the mutated zombies is within 1-2 meter from the Ghost Like Reaper. The Mutated Zombies roar and punch his fist towards zombies. A Purple aftershock wave can be seen radiating from the fist and the Ghost Like Reaper use his Reaper Slicing through the Zombies Head and bodies.

The Mutated Zombies(MZ) inch backward a bit but manage to keep it stance still. He(MZ) then punch another fist towards the reaper and another loud boom can be heard.

The resultant force from the colliding force radiating a green wave in which seems to greatly affecting the Ghost Like Reaper (GLR). It silhouette become thinner and almost see through but the sickle is still look grim and solid.

The green wave after a few meter is then disappear and the mist surrounding the cemetery got lighter.

But the MZ also hugely affected by its spar between the GLR. Its head dangle about and almost severed, while his body have a huge laceration mark carving straight from the shoulder to its lower torso.

Both Entities were at its weakest when suddenly, the MZ Dark, Hideous and Blank Face start to waver and metamorphose to something insidious. A worm like pop out from the MZ head and blossomed like a Rafflesia flower.

Within that flower lies a dark blood sac.

After a few second afterward a lot of red blood tentacles surge towards the GLR and trying to capture him.

But the GLR resist by swinging his Reaper. For a few bout the GLR success in repelling the tentacle attack but due his speed reduced he eventually entangled with a few of the tentacles and soon afterward fully immobilized.

The tentacle then drag the GLR towards its mouth. The GLR struggle to break free from the restrain but maybe after realizing its demise here, its body began to flicker rapidly...

The tentacle and flower seems to agitate a lot afterwards and increases its effort on bringing the GLR towards its mouth.

The flicker become intense and then a blinding white light permeated towards the surrounding, brightening the dark morning surrounding.

The blinding lights pierce Li Kazuya eyes and temporarily disable his sight.

After minutes elapsed, he start to regained his sight.

What befall his eyes was a sight of horror.

Black blood everywhere and the pool of blood start to wiggle and rushing to what is left of the GLR.

The Pool of blood start to concentrated to the whitish wisp of its remains.

Then after a series of horror show, the wiggle of blood formed a ball of dark meaty with an intermittent beating.

Each beating of the meaty ball sends Li Kazuya waves of terror and goosebumps.

His hand start to sweat and his heart start to beating arrhythmic style.

His body start to issue warning that the meaty balls is a bad news.

Trying to not overwhelmed by the negative sensation, Li Kazuya take a deep breath and tried to calm his mind.

After a few series of therapeutic deep breath, his mind start to clear up a bit. But unfortunately his body is still in chaotic state.

He assess his surrounding and found out that mist has subsided. And the sun starting to illuminate the cemetery.

He look back and saw the exit sign poll.

He sighed, and relieve that the mist was gone....

but unfortunately with all the sound earlier zombies began crowding the entrance, and the black line can be seen afar suggesting a few hundred or even near to thousands of zombies converging at this points.

His curiosity fulfilled but, his exits were blocked by those zombies.

While Kazuya ponder on ways out....

The Meaty Ball then expanded and start to float in the air defying the law of gravity.

Then the meatball sack then start to burst out and a small figure falling into the ground.

Soon after that, all the negative sensation gradually disappear as if something sucking it up from the air.

As a result, Kazuya body felt relieved and the tension throughout out his body disappear gradually.

But although the sensation has gone... now Kazuya eyes fix to the figure below the mountain.

Small figure tarnish with black blood. Kazuya presume that the figure is the crystallization of the meaty ball earlier.

He stare for a few minutes when the body started to shake and figure standing up.

"Oh my god!!" Kazuya scream in his mind

Although the figure look petite, it display a mature body. A human female body.

Then the figure open her eyes and scan her surrounding.. soon she notice Kazuya.. she tilt her head in curious probably curious on why a weak human are here....

Her eyes was clear and the blackness of her pupil was pitch black.

She look at Kazuya for a while and loss her interest to him after a few observation.

For her Kazuya is not worth killing or devour.... even if she kill him it does not improve her power.

And thus she just walk away and heading to the entrance of the door.

Kazuya just stare at her until she approaching the horde...

Then suddenly unexpected thing happens.... instead of attacking her... the zombies just avoid her and create space for her. Like Moses split the red sea in half.

Kazuya dumbfounded seeing the shocking sight.

Then while she walking through the horde suddenly she turn his head towards Kazuya direction and smirk.. probably schadenfreude of what will becoming that human she saw.
