15 Preparing for the Next Wave (1/2)
”No, why?”
”I think Charlie lied. But I can understand. I can imagine that the toughest job was telling the family of soldier's death,” Jay slowly said...
”Wait, what? What made you think that? He said Sarah's husband was fine though...” Elon was confused.
”Well, for a moment there I think his memories were projected into my brain. I don't know how to explain it, but I saw his experience in my head for a brief second. It wasn't his thoughts, but the images in his head. I think I saw through his eyes how Sarah's husband died...”
”Wait, what do you mean you saw through his eyes? Like from his perspective?” The group was a bit shocked.
”Yeah... Apparently, their station was hit really hard by a lot more zombies in comparison to what we went through. A lot of people died, and Sarah's husband got bit as well as they were retreating to their last line of defense. He asked the Charlie guy to put a bullet in his brain so he doesn't turn into a zombie, and he asked Charlie to take her wife to safety,” Jay explained the scenes that flooded into his brain when his eyes met Charlie for a brief second.
”Are you sure?” The group was still skeptical.
”I don't know... But the scenes were really vivid, it seemed like his memory was projected into my brain rather than my imagination running wild.” Jay was quite convinced because it felt so real, and he told the group how that suspicion was confirmed when the soldier purposely changed the topic when Sarah asked if she would be seeing her husband soon.
Still a little skeptical, the group decided to just drop it because it all had nothing to do with them.
Fortunately, Sarah allowed them to keep the weapons and supplies they brought over from her house since it was assumed that wherever they were going would have tons of supplies, weapons, and ammunition.
There were still a few hours left until the next wave, so the group began preparing. This time, knowing that killing each zombie could earn them 1 credit, which is the equivalence of 10 US dollars, they were all pretty hyped, as they all had their eyes on something to buy from the supply shopping tab on the Nirvana app.
Apparently, in the profile tab, they have a level and title, which was showing 1 and n/a for all of them.
”Oh hey, there's a hidden note on the top corner of the 'n/a',” Alex shared his discovery.
