Xia Yu was in despair as she looked upon the sacarstic and mocking smile on her fiance and best friend's faces as they watched her being tortured.
These were the people she had called her family, as a girl who lived with her abusive adopted father, someone who was despised for being ugly, she always felt inferior to other people until she met Qin Bai .
Qin Bai was a year older than her, they met on her 18th birthday. Her best friend planned a surprise birthday party and invited a few people to the party. Since Xia Yu didn't have any friends, the guests were her best friend's friends.
At first Qin Bai started by talking and just casually being friends, later he became more brazen and started pursuing her until she finally accepted.
He was kind, caring and overly doting on her, coupled with the fact that her best friend always praised him Everytime, Xia Yu naturally became saucy and spoilt. She totally forgot who she really was.
"Why!? Why? What did I ever do wrong"Xia Yu broke down
A sneer escaped Yang Ling's lips
"Why? My dear bestie, you really are naive. Let me explain since you look desperate for understanding. Bai and I have been together since the beginning. On your birthday you looked so pitiful, I made a plan with my friends and invited them and well you know the rest. Every gift you received from Bai were things he had bought for me and I had used. You were so happy that you couldn't even see the difference between second handed goods and originals." Yang Ling said
"What did I ever do to you, I loved you as my sister and instead you treated me like that"Xia Yu asked almost hysterically
"You did nothing wrong, you were just too naive, your adoptive dad tried to marry you off to that rich but sickly and useless young master two years after you got together with Qin Bai, you stupidly refused. You could have become a rich heiress and be safe in a luxurious bunker right now instead of suffering but no you were in "love" with someone else's man, hahaha how pathetic."Yang Ling smiled innocently
"Proceed"Qin Bai said coldly
Two armed men dragged Xia Yu,cut off her hands, legs and tongue. They then threw her into the open roads. The zombies near by perceived blood and ate her up bit by bit while Xia Yu was awake to feel the torture and all she wished was to die.
Her eyes burned with fury and hatred for those who betrayed her.
Qin Bai, Yang Ling if there is a next life I will haunt and make your lives miserable.

In a shabby room on a worn out bed laid a young girl motionless, she looked lifeless, her face acne and looked like all the blood had been sucked from her leaving her pale, dry and lifeless.
The lifeless young girl suddenly opened up her eyes, her eyes were shining brightly contrast to her pale face and sickly body.
Is this heaven or is this hell?
Xia Yu looked around the room which gave her a sense of long lost familiarity.
She got down from the bed, and subconsciously walked towards the mirror.
She was shocked.
Is this real?
How is this even possible?
She could still remember falling sick two months before the apocalypse. At that time it was almost two years of a relationship with Qin Bai.
Could I have been reincarnated?
Have I been given a second chance by God?
Xia Yu withdrew her thoughts and searched frantically for her phone.
She checked the date, it was April 1st, 2 weeks to her birthday and a month to the apocalypse.
Xia Yu danced around in excitement, she was given a second chance and she would make full use of it, prepare for the apocalypse and take revenge.
Qin Bai, Yang Ling!!!!
A cold, frosty and murderous glint flashed through her eyes.
It's pay back time.
***
She woke up early the next day and checked to be sure that everything that happened yesterday was real and not just a dream.
She was relieved to know that she was really alive, the first thing she did was take a bath, get dressed and then she started planning how to prepare and survive the apocalypse.
She could take some missions on the dark web but it would take a while before a mission is posted.
What else can earn money quickly.
She decided to go out, just in case she could find an answer.
The air was refreshing, Xia Yu was grateful to be able to breathe in fresh air unlike during the apocalypse, the air was filled with blood, death, famine, hunger and suffering.
Xia Yu remembered the day the apocalypse started, the night before the apocalypse was covered in brightly colored sky, the sky looked like that of an aurora little by little it started to drizzle, what was supposed to be a beautiful and wonderful sight became one of horror and fright. The drizzle was not a normal one, just like the sky,the drizzle was weird, it was dark red giving people the feel of disaster. When everyone woke up the next morning, chaos descended as those who were curious or unafraid of the weird coloured sky and rain the previous night got affected.
Within an hour over a hundred people were biten and infected, they all became zombies. There was only one positive side to the apocalypse, every person who was unaffected got powers of different types.
The apocalypse came without warning and so people were unprepared for it. Those who had little food were either raided or killed and their supply stolen. At that time true human nature was revealed as people killed and ate people. Families sold families for a loaf of bread. It was truly the end of the world.
After a few years people discovered that by degutting zombies, they could get powered orbs which could be used to upgrade the ability of a person. The orbs later became a commodity, people sold powered orbs for food. The higher the power of the orb the better quality of food, it was also used to get everything food, shelter, clothing, ammunition and protection.
