In a dark meeting room sat a group of men with grave expressions. They all had files on their desks.
A man spoke up.
" How bad is the outbreak of the virus "
The others just shook their heads indicating that they did not know. The man sighed and looked at the man at the head of the table who has been silent for a while now and said.
" Sir what should we do? The virus is spreading at a quicker rate than we had all imagined. Although not all countries have been infected but it would only be a matter of time. "
Just as the man at the head of the table was about to reply the door to the meeting room was pushed in.
An old man surrounded by a group of tough men in Black walked in.
The man at the head of the table stood up abruptly in shock and fear was visible on his face and the faces of everyone seated.
" You are all have an important meeting without me? I'm hurt by your actions "
The old man said with a sinister smile.
The man at the head of the table gritted his teeth and spat out five words.
" What do you want Shen Qiu? "
The old man Shen Qiu smiled even more broadly.
" What do I want? Hmm let me think. I want your position as head, Wang Bai. In return my people will help strengthen the manpower. Isn't that just amazing? "
" I am sorry but we don't need your help, the situation isn't so sure yet but thank you for your kind gestures. " The Man at the head of the table called Wang Bai said barely able to contain his anger.
Shen Qiu smiled meaningfully at Wang Bai and cast his glance at everyone in the room. Everyone felt a chill down their spines, after he turned around and left, they all released their breaths that they did not even know they were holding until he left.
" Wang Bai are you sure about your decision right now? With the way the future is unfolding there is no telling what would happen. We may need his help but you rejected him just like that, won't it cause us problems in the future? "
One of the men at the table said and the others silently nodded their heads.
Who in the world didn't know Shen Qiu, a prodigy in martial arts and someone nobody could ever afford to offend, not even his children had ever escaped his wrath.
He had two sons, Shen Wan and Shen Xin. Shen Wan was the first son of the family and two years older than Shen Xin. They were both good sons who had made names for themselves but that didn't matter anymore because they were legends now and both died.
Shen Wan never got married, he was poisoned by a woman who he had fallen for. While Shen Xin got married to a beautiful woman and disappeared while completing a mission, after a few years their dead bodies were found, although at that point they were just skeletons.
Nobody knows what the doctors and forensic scientists told Shen Qiu, since he was the only one who was told and the doctors and scientists were all killed after serving their purpose.
So the cause of death of the second son remained a mystery. The last restraint on Shen Qiu was broken and the demon within escaped leaving behind a living corpse. He had no emotions and no reason to live and he wasn't afraid of death either.
That's not what made him scary, what made him scary is that he uses new methods to deal with each of his enemies.
Wang Bai just held his throbbing head and stay silent. Of course he knew that his decision would come back to bite him in the ass but he also knew that his position was the only thing stopping Shen Qiu from turning the world into his play ground.
He felt slightly prognostic. It was ridiculous but he couldn't shake off the feeling that Shen Qiu would not necessarily need his position to rule the world. And that thought really scared the shit out of him.
" let's think about a solution to the problem at hand first. " He said finally.
An hour, two hours, three hours. The door to the meeting room was finally opened and all that were inside came out having maladjusted expressions.
Wang Bai sat alone in the big meeting room. It was obvious from his expression that they had not come up with any solution.
Clock was ticking and more and more people were getting infected by the virus. Many countries are infected in various ways and their country was one of the very few that have not been infected yet but there's no telling when all life would be changed.
Just the thought of the impending doom and storm coming their way gave Wang Bai serious migraine.
The pressure on him was overwhelming.
Wang Bai walked out of the room and walked alone on the lonely corridor, all the way to the garage was lonely and quiet but Wang Bai didn't even notice it.
As he drove he still didn't notice the weird people walking on the road as his head was filled with worry.
He drove from the border of the country into a high end city. He drove into the courtyard and parked his car in the garage.
He walked to his front door and smiled when he looked at his house. No matter what happened he would ensure he protects his family.
He walked in and heard screams from his daughter's room. He called out to her. No response.
He called out to his wife. No response.
After calling out to everyone and receiving no response he decided to check things out.
He entered his daughter's room and saw blood everywhere. He started panicking, before he knew what happened he felt his neck being bitten fiercely.
He pushed away the person from himself and realized that it was his wife, she looked lifeless and so did his children.
His eyes widened in shock.
Zombies!!!?!!!!!!
His vision darkened and he slumped. By the time he awoke, he became part of his family.
