The yacht of the deads

Kein and Keira ran hurry leaving the truck. After they were far enough, the truck exploded and killed all zombies around it.

"It's you, guys. Hahaha, this world is too narrow, isn't it?" It's Cohen who said while coming to Keira and Kein.

"Cohen, what are you doing here? Destroying this my favorite monster?" Keira talked as she approaching to Cohen.

"Easy, girl. It was just a decoy to kill all of them. But I surprised the truck could be driven so far," Cohen replied while looking at Kein and Keira.

"Where were you exactly, Cohen? After leaving me and Wen at Lightwood City," Kein talked.

"That's my business, boy. That's always be my secret until this shit, this outbreak gone." Cohen looked around then seeing at a small group of zombies which was wailing in the road. "By the way, I met Wen and the woman inside a building at Girl Passion City. They talked about both of you. They're looking for you. I think you had separated when attacked by those zombies."

"Thank goodness. The people who were killed were not them. Alright. I will find the answer next time," Kein muttered.

Meanwhile at Girl Passion City.

At the night, Wen and Helen were walking while looking around.

"Where are Yezak and the others exactly? Especially Kein and Keira. I'm affraid they do something dirty like before. I've caught Kein and Ada making love inside an abandoned house," Helen talked.

"What? Hahaha. That's funny. But I think that's not problem, Helen. That's natural for a couple who need something fun. Either are we," Wen said as he laughing.

Helen glared at Wen.

"What did you say? I will not give my honor to man who isn't my legal couple!" she said with annoyed tone.

Wen chuckled. "I see. Okay, we need to move. We have to look for Kein and Keira and the others."

Several minutes later, Wen and Helen arrived at a riverside where a yacht parked at a dock at the river. They heard screams inside the yacht.

"Nooooo.....!"

"Elisa!"

Wen and Helen were looking each other. Then they ran to the yacht way in. But the door is locked.

"Everyone inside, open the door!" Wen shouted while knocking the locked yacht door.

"No! There are many zombies near it!" Someone answered at a distance.

"Oh, crap! Maybe we need to leave, Helen. They can't be saved. I heard many zombies growl in there," Wen said while preparing to leave the yacht door.

"Wen, hear that. These zombies are leaving the door. We have chance to destroy it by the thing," Helen said as she pointing at a circular saw.

Wen narrowed his eyes then approaching the circular saw.

The circular saw has manual drive that can be turned by hand by a crank.

"There must been someone who tried to help them before. This saw is the proof," Wen said as he taking the saw up.

"But why didn't they help these people inside this yacht?" Helen muttered.

"I don't know. But I will try to not cancel helping them," Kein said while carrying the saw then using it to breach the yacht door. "Damn, this is too hard to be cut. I need an engined circular saw."

Helen just stared at Wen while thinking something that maybe can help.

"I will help to push this circular saw. We need to press it hard," she said while coming to Wen then helping the man.

"No can do. The door is too thick. But it wouldn't be problem if it made from wood," Wen swore while stopping his act.

"No! They will jump to the water!" Helen shrieked when seeing several people who are the yacht's passengers were standing at the edge of deck.

"There are many zombie fish under there, awaiting for prey." Wen just stunned on position. "All of you, fight! Don't jump or you will be next of them!" he shouted while waving his hands.

These people just stared at Wen in hopeless expression.

Suddenly heard a loud sound of explosion coming from second floor of the yacht followed by screams of zombies.

"Hell yeah! Burn to the hell, you bastard!" A man is heard shouted. Maybe he was an actor behind the explosion.

Wen and Helen just looked each other. They felt surprised after hearing the shout.

"Everyone! Time to going out!" the shout heard again.

After the shout, people who stood at edge of edge went quick. They seem followed someone who has succeeded to kill many zombies.

"So, we failed to save them?" Helen stared at Wen.

"But he didn't fail. Lucky for them," Wen said after put the saw down.

"So, will we continue to look for Kein and Keira?" Helen asked.

"Absolutely yes. Come on," Wen said as he leaving the yacht followed by Helen.

Only five steps walk, suddenly the yacht shaked rough followed by a huge growl. That growl was very terrifying.

"What's that?" Helen shrieked.

Screams heard from the inside of the yacht.

"Oh, god! What's that? It is very huge!"

"The titan zombie! Run!"

An explosion heard again followed by a huge sound of steps from something huge inside there.

"Aaaaaaaahhhh....!"

"Noooooo! Donen is catched!"

"Donen...!"

Wen and Helen were running away from the dock where the yacht docked. After far enough, they saw to the top of the yacht. They saw a huge creature colored light blue is tearing a man.

Front of it, some people are shaking in fear. They can't run away because there is no way out to avoid the monster.

"Holy crap!" Helen shrieked.

"Don't see that, Helen." Wen turned Helen behind in order the girl doesn't see the creature.

Just in minutes, these people jumped into water then caught by some underwater zombies. Their screams were heartbreaking.

"Oh, god! They didn't make it." Wen muttered. "I'm sorry to say that we couldn't save them."

Without light, Wen and Helen left the yacht. Moreover a large group of zombies are heading to the yacht.

"I feel guilty, Wen. Why couldn't I save them? Whereas we always succeeded to save anyone who need to be saved," Helen said while sniffling.

"We've failed before, Helen. Your friends for example," Wen said as he lighting his flashlight then highlighting a house. "Someone in there. Maybe we can ask for help."

After Wen and Helen came in to the house. An aged 42 man was standing front of a fireplace.

He looked didn't care about who has entered his house.

"The air is so cold, right? This fireplace is very important in this condition." The man brews coffee into three cups. "I have seen both of you ran away from the yacht. I thought you are two of the yacht passengers."

"No, we're not. We just happened to be passing by," Wen said. "What are you doing here? Didn't you hear their screams? They're attacked by a titan zombie. We can't save them. That's beyond our capabilities."

The man turned his body then put those cups of coffee on a table.

"I heard it, of course. Moreover I was one of them, those yacht passengers." The man drinks his coffee. "Ah, ya, please drink. This coffee has good taste. It's Torindian Kick. Try it."

The man stared at Helen and Wen.

"What? What's happened exactly? Did you leave them to save yourself?" Wen asked as he staring sharp to the man.

"I was forced to do it. If I don't do that, something more horrible will happen. I was forced to let them die in there," the man explained making Wen and Helen surprised.

"How dare you! That's inhuman! Tell me something more horrible what that forced you to leave them die slain by the titan!" Wen said as he gripping the man shirt collar.

"Wen, calm down," Helen tried to calm Wen down.

"I will explain. Alright, I always feel guilty after doing that. But I had no choice. The titan will not go anywhere. I have locked the yacht. There is no one can breach every way out from the yacht whatever tool they use. But if I let the doors opened, the titan will go out and spreading terror to the survivors," the man explained.

"That's not make sense, asshole! The titan can't pass the door through. It's too small for it!" Wen said impatiently.

"Let me explain, man. The titan was extraordinary. It can be splitted into several small parts. It unbelievable but true. I have seen when the zombie splitted." The man gave a smartphone to Wen. "This will be the proof."

Wen and Helen saw at the video that airing a huge creature which was splitting into several small parts then entering every doors around it.

"But the thing is going to go out from the yacht by jumping from the top," Wen said.

"No, it won't do that. It can't climb, it dare not to jump, moreover to the water," the man said.

"How do you know that the creature dare not jump?" Helen asked.

"I saw it shaking when reaching the edge of deck despite at lower floor. After shaking, it ran to avoid the edge," the man said.

"Maybe you are right in order their sacrifice isn't useless," Wen said.
