Literature/short Stories/title: Dead Or Alive. by Mabelspen(f): 12:20pm On Nov 09, 2024
.......Schhh "following the incidence of the affecte....citiz"....schh.

" Argh! For goodness sake what the hell is going on. Not today please, radio you're my only hope of communication."

Mazekein tried to rewind the radio stations, in other to get information that she has been hearing. Carrying the radio from it position to her bed space, down to her refrigerator in search of a good network connection, but it proved futile.

"Oh goodness me, what am I gonna do. I can't even call nor reach out to anyone. " She tried again continuously, until she gained a positive outcome.

(The radio presenter)....."All citizens of Belgium are advised to get themselves checked up. Information reaching to the government that there will be a wide spread of viruses In the country. Two thousand people has been affected by the virus known as xynoph, as though the causes are yet to be discovered by the professionals."

Mazekein dropped the radio and paced hurriedly to her room trying to reach out to her family. While she left the radio to keep on playing.

(Radio presenter)......."But citizens are advised to be cautious of certain features affected individuals may possess. Such as violent behaviors, bleeding from the nose, blood shot eyes and pale skin, do not allow anyone in once you notice these as you are endangering your life. Once the scientist finds the cure they'll be treated, stay indoors as most of them turns into unimaginable creatures without the symptoms I mentioned earlier."

The radio suddenly loosed connection. Maze tried different numbers but they didn't go through.

(Loud knocking on the door)....." Please, please help me they're coming. I don't want to die please." Maze ran downstairs in a hurry, but she missed her steps which caused her to hit her head on the stairs making her loose consciousness.

After about two hours, she regained consciousness. The person kept on banging the door. Mazekein gathered all the strength in her and aimed towards opening the door.

"Hold on. Give me a few minutes please, I want to put somethings together, she replied." Heading towards the kitchen in her spotless White gown which had glitters on them making her look stunning even in crisis going on. She searched for a knife for safety precautions. Walking briskly, panicking, breathing like one who just fought a boxer as sweat dripped profusely down from her forehead down to her face. She opened the door with so much fear in her.

"Argh....get off me. Somebody help! Mazekein tried her best to push her off" She yelled as the unknown person knocking pushed her with force and climbed on her body with spit drooling out of her mouth. So violent and scary hitting mazekein's head on the floor repeatedly. Maze struggled to locate the knife as it fell from her hands when the lady pounced on her.

"You bitch.....get off me. Help!!! " Mazekein finally got a hold of the knife and stabbed the lady aiming for her head. Puncturing her head with the knife, stabbing viciously, twisting the knife in and out. A blue like blood spewed out of her head with her brains popping out.

Mazekein stayed in her apartment for months, even when the groceries finished she fed on birds, squirrel that were part of her daily life. Fighting different vicious individuals who were affected, getting herself almost bitten by them. Mazekein hoped and prayed for a miracle she was sick and tired of the life she's living. She depended on her urine in place of water. Her life was slowly living her day by day.

Tired of such living, she mustered the courage leaving her zone in search of food and water as it seemed like life was no longer in her. No one to reach out to,no mom,dad or even her sibling to strengthen her in situations like this.

"Finally a store. Thank God" she scampered aggressively in the store packing everything that comes to her sight. When suddenly, affected person interrupted making way to pounce on her. Maze struggled with all the strength she had left, locating a bottle and stabbed the lad.

"Argh...stop stop stop. I'm sick and tired of y'all, you burst out of nowhere with some self proclaimed virus, interrupted my engagement...argh I'm supposed to be married with Keanu." You ruined everything, she kept on talking as she stabbed him continuously.

She didn't come along with her weapons, stabbing him with a bottle wasn't enough. Luck seemed to not be on her side this time.

The violent man bit her, right on her neck aggressively, like one struggling to cut a piece of meat. More of them came and bit every place of her body. Mazekein saw her life leaving her as she couldn't struggle to fight anymore.

(Director) "All right guys... Cut! and that's a wrap. Thank you all for your time and efforts. Beulah (Mazekein) you did wonderfully well I'm impressed. We're gonna make a fortune from this amigos."

Beulah (Mazekein) "I appreciate compliments sir, thank you for believing in me, it's means a lot." She replied as she cleaned up the blood on her body(bought from the hospital to make the acting look realistic.)

I hope you liked it❤️😊.
