Beyond Earth

"Fear is a feeling, but it tends to run deeper than that. It's like a virus. Resilient and highly contagious. And even the smallest seed of it can grow to destroy you." °°°°°° It's the year 2280. Airborne particles were invented with the intent to eradicate diseases but instead they become radioactive, toxic and severely deadly to anyone who breathes in even a tiny amount. The world becomes a dystopia and is uninhabitable. With time running out for humans on earth, Hiro Tachibana is one of the scientists that has to find out if a new planet is fit for habitation. But when people start turning up dead on the spaceship and there are more questions than answers, Hiro realizes that he may not be able to trust anyone. Not even himself. DISCLAIMER: The picture in the book cover does not belong to me. AN: This book is undergoing a MAJOR rewrite. The previous chapters are not available for now so don't start reading it. I'll post an announcement when I'm done editing. Thank you!

Chapter 115

The house, a two storey building, looked intact. It had no broken windows and the front door was shut. We all peeked into the living room through the window's sheer curtains and saw no signs of movement or violence inside.

I was about to look at the street over my shoulder to see if there was still no infected there when a sharp rap on the window's glass made me yelp. I clamped my hands down on my mouth and glared at Faye as my heart beat wildly in my chest.

"What? We needed to know if there were any infected inside," she said, defending herself when she saw that we were all glaring at her. She looked back into the house through the window and rapped on the glass again after a couple of seconds.

Nothing happened. The inside of the house was deathly silent just like the street.

"Now we know it's definitely empty," she stated as Laleh walked over to the door and tried to open it but it was locked.
