“Don’t come in. Stay outside. If you get bitten, I won’t be able to do a thing for you,” Theresa said as she stepped into the passage.

“Beautiful, I’m not afraid.” Quentin followed without hesitation.

“Me neither.” Vinny, that stubborn girl, didn’t seem scared of zombies at all. She trailed right after Quentin.

Sage stayed silent, but he too went in.

Theresa led the way with her Aeroshield fully expanded, flashlight in hand, cutting through the darkness ahead. The narrow tunnel sloped downward, its sides solid brick, the stairs old wood that creaked and banged with every step. Then, abruptly, the steps ended, and the sound of her boots echoed into open space.

What lay before her stunned her–it was a laboratory.

White research beds lined the room. Rows of dead black screens sat atop research instruments. Two white file cabinets leaned against the walls. On a white desk sat an open lockbox containing a single ampule of clear liquid.

fixed on the small label stuck to it: rows of abbreviations followed by a date-

Her eyes 08/09/2031.

Theresa’s heart jolted. That was the day the zombie virus outbreak began–four years ago.

Then came movement. From the corners, small, twisted figures sprang forward. A swarm of zombies appeared out of nowhere, jaws gaping as they hurled themselves at her.

“Arrrrghh…”

They crashed toward her, bloodied mouths open wide. The others behind Theresa shouted in alarm, but she didn’t flinch. Instead, she charged straight into the pack.

The beam of the flashlight flickered across the room. A flash of silver cut through the dark, and then came the shrick–high–pitched, agonized.

It sounded like a zombie, but there was something human in it too. Fear. Terror.

At once, a wave of overwhelming mental force burst across the chamber.

Sage, Quentin, and Vinny reeled as if struck by a hammer. Their fragile nerves felt pierced by

a thousand needles, their skulls heavy and throbbing, their vision darkening until they could barely breathe.

Words caught in their throats, their nervous systems thrown into chaos.

Vinny clutched her head in agony. Quentin, whose nervous system was different from most, suffered even more. Even Sage, a Level 5 ability user with formidable mind power, was crushed beneath the psychic storm of a Level 6.

And then, a sharp, clear voice cut through it.

“That’s all you’ve got?”

Theresa withdrew her blade. In an instant, the illusions and the storm pressing on their minds dissolved. Sage and Quentin forced their eyes open–just in time to see Theresa standing over the corpse of the Level 6 mental–type zombie, blade dripping.

Against her, it had been hopeless. Its mental powers alone had been nothing but a gift- wrapped death. And with it came a prize: a gleamstone.

Theresa’s knife pried free a gleaming crystal the size of a baby’s fist, bright and flawless.

A Level 6 mental–type gleamstone!

She tucked the precious core into her domain, then strode to the desk. Lifting the ampule, she studied the words and the date again.

Most of the writing was abbreviations and scientific jargon, but one word stood out to her –“evolution.” And the date stamped above was unmistakable. It was the day the outbreak began.

Beneath the ampule, she pulled open the lockbox’s lower compartment. Dozens of empty ampules lay within, their dates stretching back more than a year before the outbreak.

The sight left her reeling. Her mind buzzed, a single thought flashing fast and sharp.
