Chapter 28 - Zombie attack in Dakka 03 (28)

Few days later -

29-12-2987

On the other side of Woodland Mountain, nighttime falls. A dark black portal opens, and a sinister entity emerges.

Some individuals engaged in drug-related activities notice the figure approaching. They shine a torch on the mysterious entity, which responds with a scream and hurls dark matter at the people's heads. The affected individuals collapse to the ground, and the ominous figure proceeds toward the city.

The impacted individuals stand up, transforming into zombie-like figures with entirely black eyes and their entire bodies turned pitch black.

A police car, fueled by petrol, drives down the road. Suddenly, a man appears in front of the car and collides with it. The police stop the car and witness walking dead with black tentacles.

One of these creatures attacks the police with its tentacles, infecting the officer with the dark matter, causing him to fall to the ground. After a moment, the police officer rises, having transformed into one of them.

Fahim's home - Tamim and Fahim having dinner.

"Nice, didn't expect you to cook this well," says Tamim.

"Yup, this is a treat for me to have control of my power. Thanks to you, I can control my powers," says Fahim.

"Well, now what will you do? Fight crime or something like that?" asks Tamim.

"Don't know. There is less crime than I expected, so what will I stop? I wish I were a part of your Dr. X mission; then, I could call myself a superhero," says Fahim.

"I guess, but now I think you should stop thinking about things like that, I mean stopping crime. I only helped you so that you don't fall into uncomfortable situations," says Tamim.

"Yeah, I know, but..." Fahim starts to say, and Tamim stands up, saying, "Now I need to go; it's already 12."

"Why not stay at my place?" suggests Fahim.

"I would if I had a problem going home, but I'm fine. Also, I have University tomorrow," says Tamim while washing his hands.

"Okay then, I have nothing more to say. See you then." says Fahim 

Faria's house - Faria studying on the bed wearing a blanket.

Suddenly, she feels something strange and has a vision where she sees people running from something blurry. 

The vision stops, and she says with shock, "Huh! What the hell was that? It's the same type of vision where I see possible futures, but I can't understand what the meaning of this is."

Faria closes her book and gets out of her blanket.

"Wait, wait, wait. The place I saw is not like it is in this city, but then where is it? If it is the near future, then it's not a good one," thinks Faria, closing her eyes with a tense face.

Next day - Dakka Business University.

30-12-2987

Tamim is listening to the lecture and notices his eyes shifting to Faria.

"In this whole class, none are my friends, and I talk with none. But as a good observer, I must say in this class, there is no girl as beautiful as Faria. No, it's not a compliment; I am telling the truth. I always hate girls who wear makeup to look pretty, but all the girls in the class are wearing makeup, and still, they are not close to Faria. Honestly speaking, it's been three months since I've known her, but I've never seen her wearing makeup. Wait, why am I even thinking that? Maybe this class is boring, or I'm thinking of Faria as a match for Fahim. They would look great as a couple, and both have the same starting letter of the name," thinks Tamim.

After class-

Tamim, standing and waiting for the bus, thinks, "It's taking too much time for the bus to come; I think I should start walking." Deciding to walk, he glances back and notices Faria at the bus stop.

Suddenly, the bus stop alarm rings, and displays around them start showing news. "Everyone near the Dakka 3rd city is requested to move as far as possible from Dakka 3rd," and the display shows some zombies with black tentacles attacking a TV news station. The voice from the display continues, "Some zombie-like figures attacked the city. Anyone who is not infected or near Dakka 3rd is requested to run away to a safe distance."

People around were shocked by seeing the video of Dakka 3rd city and they started running  away in haste.

Tamim, witnessing the chaos, thinks, "Zombies? In Dakka 3rd? This is Dakka 2nd city. Shit, that means it is possible it can spread here." He scans the area for Faria and realizes she has disappeared.

"Why do I care? I don't care what happened to people," says Tamim, trying to convince himself, but his attention is drawn back to the display showing zombies killing humans.

In a school where zombies attacked, a teenage boy wearing school dress with black hair, brown eye runs desperately to save himself from the pursuing undead. Desperate to find refuge, he attempts to enter a room where some of his classmates are, but a girl shoves him away, declaring, "We can't let anyone else in. You better die." She locks the door, leaving the boy vulnerable.

As the boy continues to run, a horde of zombies relentlessly chases him. Determined to survive, he thinks, "I can't die like this. No, no, I can't die, or my mom will be sad." A zombie manages to grab him, biting his hand, but he struggles free and keeps running.

Meanwhile, a father runs with his child to escape the zombie onslaught. Unfortunately, a zombie grabs the father, and another threatens the child. In a timely intervention, Tamim, dressed in black and wearing a mask, arrives, saving the child but unable to rescue the father in time. 

The father succumbs to the infection, turning into a zombie.

"It was too fast, it took him only a second to transform? It's not slow like in zombie movies," Tamim thinks as he teleports himself and the child to the roof of the tallest building.

The traumatized child starts crying. 

"Is that Tamim?" asks Faria from behind, who was flying masked.

"Yes, it's me," confirms Tamim.

"Okay, leave him here, and take every person you save here. I will teleport them to a safe place," instructs Faria.

Faria lands, comforting the crying child and assuring, "Nothing will happen; just stay strong." She creates a portal, sending the child to a secure hospital field where others have gathered.

Faria ascends into the sky, scanning the area and rapidly teleporting people to safety.

Meanwhile, Tamim jumps into action on the ground, rescuing people from the zombie threat.

A police tank arrives, firing at the zombies, but their attacks prove ineffective. The zombies turn on the police, leading to chaos.

Suddenly, a helicopter arrives with a group of individuals leaping out, some using jetpacks. Among them is Nadim, who employs his dragon soul to save people and fend off zombies. Another soul sorcerer joins the effort.

A massive rescue helicopter lands on the mountainside, deploying a folding bridge to prevent zombies from advancing to the next city.

Cybernetically enhanced police, clad in jetpacks, emerge from the rescue helicopter, ready to assist in the battle against the undead.

Amidst the chaos, Tamim, using telekinesis, ascends to the sky and observes the rampant zombie outbreak throughout the city.

He spots a school where a boy ( the same running boy)  and a girl (the same girl who didn't let the boy enter the room)  are cornered on a building. The girl pushed the boy violently to distract the zombies.  The boy starts to fall and before those zombies catch him Tamim intervenes just in time, teleporting the boy to safety and saving the girl on another rooftop.

Upon entering the school, Tamim confronts a grim scene-zombified individuals everywhere. Despite a tentacled zombie attack, Tamim remains unscathed, pushing forward to search for survivors.

In the midst of the rescue efforts, Nadim faces imminent danger from a zombie.

With speed a ray of light enters the city. 

The ray of light stopped and it was Fahim who came for rescue. Fahim, now wearing a helmet, swiftly kicks the zombie with supersonic speed, ensuring Nadim's safety.

Fahim then heads towards the city, escorting survivors to the rescue helicopter.

Arij, shielding the helicopter with a barrier, questions Fahim: "What are you?"

Fahim responds, "I'm just saving people. That's my introduction. Now, please let me bring these people inside."

In the ethereal sky, Faria continued her desperate dance of teleportation, rescuing people from the clutches of the encroaching darkness. A sudden presence manifested behind her - Faisal, adorned in a cybernetic jetpack costume, emerged from the shadows, commending her efforts.

"Good job," Faisal acknowledged with a nod, his gratitude echoing in the tumultuous air. Faria, pivoting to face him, caught a glimpse of familiarity in the technological attire. Her voice trembled with both relief and disbelief as she uttered, "Dad?"

With a stoic affirmation, Faisal confirmed his identity. "Yes, it's me.

Faria asked Foisal "Do you know what's happening?"

Faisal, donned in the mysterious garb of a cybernetic guardian, shook his head. "No clue. But we will try to find answers. For now, our priority is to save as many lives as possible." With these words, he descended to the chaotic streets below, armed with a laser gun, ready to confront the enigma that had befallen their city.

Tamim is strolling on a road in the city with X-ray vision. Dodging all the zombies on his way, Trying to look for alive people.

Tamim gets on the roof of a building, sees the setting, and sees all the people around him turn into zombies.

He then scans the houses and buildings and sees that people inside the buildings also turn into zombies.

He looks down and sees a boy running from a zombie. Before he could react, Fahim came with superspeed, grabbed the boy, and started running.

Tamim jumps on information about Fahim.

Fahim reacts and stops, looking at a guy in a black costume with a mask who just jumped in front of him.

Tamim says, "Give the boy to me, and I will teleport him to a safe place."

Fahim hesitates, but Tamim says, "It's me; I'm Tamim."

"Oh, it's you; sorry, I didn't understand," says Fahim, and Tamim teleports him and the boy on a roof.

Tamim looks for Faria and sees that Faria is teleporting people while flying.

Faria suddenly feels pain in her head and starts to fall to the ground.

Tamim quickly teleports the boy on the rescue helicopter and starts teleporting him to the place where Faria is going to fall.

--

Fahim gets inside a building and starts looking for alive people. He sees a zombie trying to break the door, and a woman is screaming inside.

Fahim kicks the zombie out of the building and opens the door.

Fahim enters the room and sees a woman.

"Mom?" says Fahim.

A vision appears to reveal information about Fahim's past

12 year Fahim came home, unlocked the door lock, and heard a scream: "Ahh, please do more. I want more."

Fahim walked into the room and saw that her mother was naked and having sex with a guy.

"Mom,what are you doing with this guy?" asked Fahim.

She quickly holds his mouth with pressure. "I can't let you stay alive anymore. You are giving me pain from the day you were born. Now I will kill you."

Fahim was in pain and started crying while his mother was trying to kill him. 

Present -

"Fahim, my boy, it's you?  You came to save your mom? " says Fahims mom. 

Before Fahim could react, his mom turned into a black entity.

-------

Tamim arrives just in time as Faria plummets through the air. He attempts to catch her, but to his surprise, she suddenly opens her eyes and effortlessly soars back into the sky.

Faria, now floating, touches her head, wincing in pain. "Was I falling? Ugh, my head hurts."

Tamim reassures her, "Yeah, you were falling, but it's good to see you okay."

Faria, visibly strained, admits, "It's getting harder. I'm using too much of my power, trying to scan for people, but it seems we're unable to save enough lives."

Tamim acknowledges, "Yeah, it seems like all the people in the city either died or turned into zombies."

The rescue helicopter is brimming with people, and a police officer urgently communicates through his earbuds, "Sir, I think we have to take off. The helicopter has reached its maximum capacity of 10,000 people."

Foisal, who was helping people aboard, lands on the rescue helicopter. Arij, concerned, reports, "Sir, zombies are destroying my barrier; we need to move quickly, or they will enter our helicopter."

Observing the situation, Foisal makes a decision, "Okay, then take off."

As the helicopter ascends, some zombies manage to break Arij's barrier and board.

Foisal and other police officers start shooting at them, but suddenly the zombies collapse, turning into lifeless bodies. The black matter detaches from these bodies and begins heading toward the city center.
