Chapter 21 - Past life: recollection

When I went to bed, I dreamt about those people I met in the village. It was a complete nightmare.

Flashback

"Wendy, are you okay? Don't.... fall". I could hear a woman's voice.

"Wendy ..... Hello..... Wendy... Wake up" The voice continued.

"Is she still not awake yet?". This time it is a man's voice.

"She's not awake"

I heard those voices and I could never forget those voices in my whole life. Those people were my best friends. Mike and Grace. The three of us were best friends and we were inseparable. Or so I thought. I hate them.

It all started when the apocalypse began in my past life. I worked hard. I was in my village when the apocalypse began. At that time I was with my so called best friends. We all noticed that the sun was shining so bright than usual and everything was so hot. It was so hot that it could cause a heat stroke.

Then we noticed people began to fall to the ground. The passerbys stopped where a woman fell and tried to help her but that was when a hand gripped his hands. Then all we saw was blood. Then every single person who fell to the ground rose up and started working strangely. I looked at their faces and got a conclusion that they were zombies. I watched a lot of apocalypse movies so I know one when I see one.

I told my friends about my conclusion and we hid somewhere I thought was safe for a while. After a while when I saw that there wasn't too much zombies, I signaled to my friends to run which we did. We ran until a girl tripped and then the girl started shouting

"Please ..... Please save me". The girl screamed and then I saw zombies coming to our side. So I steeled my heart and ran to our house in the village.

We lived in the village with only a little amount of food and water. When we ran out of food, they told me to search for food. I was shocked and I disagreed. So we all went to search for food which we ate.

After ten days of searching for food and water, we discovered that we could gain superpowers since some of our friends got their superpowers. We were very happy. We lived on some food and water for a while when we met some people. It was the first time in a very long time since we saw people.

They told us to follow them which we did. And then that became our adventure. We killed zombies and ate till we were full. There was also no malice..... Or so I thought.

It was on a very particular day, that my friends told me something

"Hey Wendy... There's something I want to tell you but it must be a secret". They told me and I thought.it was okay since I trust them. They blindfolded my eyes and brought me to a room. Then I heard a voice

"Remove the blindfold.... I want her to see everything". It was a male voice. The man's voice was thick and hoarse. The blindfold was removed and I found myself in a room that was dark and filled with stuff that felt occultic. I was scared. I tried to run and found out that I was already tied up. Then the man spoke again and said

"Sweetie don't you want to know who brought you here?"

As soon as he said those words, I slumped. I could not believe it. My friends were the ones who brought me here but why.

"You want to know why they brought you to me" the man said as if reading my thoughts.

I nodded and then he said with a thick and hoarse voice

"I told them that if they bring someone from their group, I would give them food and a nice place to say. So yeah hey chose you and then drugged you".

I was shocked. So our friendship of over eight years ago was that weak. I decided to beg the man to let me leave the room. And if course he disagreed.

They kept me in the room for five days and they haven't talked in a while. Until a day came when they brought all their members and started chanting strange words. I was instantly scared. I didn't know what to do.

"Please.... Please let me....leave" I said in a very pitiful and weak voice.

They didn't seem to agree. I was worried. But then after chanting, they left. I was a little bit scared and relieved until I saw the door open and it was my friends. The same friends that betrayed me for food and a good place of living. What do they want?

How do you guys think Wendy died in her past life.

1) By being skinned to death.

2) By being chopped to pieces.

3) By being burned to death.
