I couldn't move.

Pakiramdam ko'y natulos ako sa aking kinatatayuan nang makita ang taong nasa harap namin. . . ang taong dating kasamahan namin na pumatay rin sa aming kasamahan ngayon.

“Harper, everyone! Fuck! Move!” Parker's voice echoed in our hearing— the reason why every one of us lifted our guns and started pointing them towards the monster that just killed Troy.

Si Xander na naiwan sa taas ng pader ay para bang nawalan ng lakas sa kanyang nakita at biglang napaupo, na dahilan upang bigla akong natakot sa pag aakalang mahuhulog ito.

But my eyes. . . it remained on Zombie Yui as he tries to avoid our gunshots with his speed, in a form of spider that remaining crouched, even his hands are supporting his body on the ground while jumping to avoid bullets. . .

I've never imagined ourselves where we would point our guns to our companion and shoot them to death.

But he isn't our companion anymore, for he died because we failed to protect him.

Minsan ay natatamaan ito sa katawan ngunit ang mata'y nanatiling nanlilisik habang nakatingin kay Parker na ngayon ay patuloy sa pagbaril rito.

Until the zombie Yui stopped.

Now, he is slowly lifting his body to stand straight, even with wobbly movements, with eyes locked at Parker who's standing and looks so shocked at what Yui is doing. . .

This proves my theory that zombies adapt in the surroundings where they're in, just like how humans are.

And it's scary.

Nanginginig kong itinapat ang aking mata sa scope nito at sinimulan syang marilin mula sa aking pwesto.

I couldn't shoot him, even though he's just walking in the yard as if he's accepting our bullets that are penetrating his body.

Bawat pagtama ng bala sa kanyang katawan ay ang paglabas ng itim na dugo sa kabilang banda noon, ngunit para walang wala itong nararamdaman at nanatiling nakatingin kay Parker na sumigaw kanina.

My right eye that is looking through the scope, looked at Troy's unmoving body.

This reminds me of the reason why we ran away. . . because we thought they're already dead just by being killed by that hooded zombie, but knowing how Yui's alive. . . no, he may be moving but he's dead. . . which means he's not the only one—

“AHHH!” My eyes widened as we heard some shouts from the backyard.

Dahil doon ay para bang nagawi ang tingin ng zombie. . . ni Yui sa pinagmulan ng sigaw at mabilis na gumalang papunta doon na dahilan upang alisin ko ang aking baril.

Shit! Si Faye!

I was about to run when Zeon stopped me by holding my shoulder as he shook his head. “Your position,” his voice is harsh, his eyes are sharp as he reminded me of one of our rules within the military.

I bit my lower lip.

It is our major rule. . . to not let go of your position because your form will be destroyed and it will lead into a geater casualty.

Sa oras na mangyari iyon ay hindi lamang ang iyong grupo ang maaapektuhan kundi pati na rin ang nakapaligid sa inyo.

We were trained to keep going despite our companions begging for our pleas to save them.

“But Faye is. . .” I couldn't finish what I was saying because of Zeon's right.

I shouldn't leave my position or our plan will fail.
