Alex woke up from a sleep, he currently laying in bed inside a small room. it's a simple wooden house with a small window, Alex can see the morning light. A mont later a woman ca into the room, she wears simple traditional Indonesian clothing. she smiles at Alex, starring attentively.
"You already woke up? how do you feel? does it still hurt?"
Alex just realizes his body quiet rigid and hard to move. He seems to have been laying in this bed for quite a while. The woman opens up his shirt, apparently, there are lots of bandages in Alex body, she tried to change it into the new one.
Not long after, a man walks into the room, Alex recognizes him, the mory starts coming back to him.. this man called Erick saved him from the zombie attack. Erick took Alex to his house, its place in a small village in the central section of Bali near the mountains.
.
Erick then helps Alex awake and took him slowly to a dining table, there they sat together, Erick has a daughter and a son.
"Haloo mister my na is Vina,"
the little girl smile at him.
She reminds Alex a lot to his family. on the first day, the disease spread and not long after his daughter Tiffany died.. his wife and his other daughter Tiarra died following the chaos from the outbreak.
Alex turned into madness.. He pushes all the anger and sadness inside him into action.. He took any weapon he could find and start chopping down as many zombies he could find. Going around shelters to shelters with only one purpose in his mind. Kill as many zombies as possible. If he died during the process, it will be a release from his pain. Soti later, during a group hunt he was separated and chased into the forest. When he was surrounded he thought it finally is his end, but this guy Erick save him.
Alex has no more aning for his life, he no longer has a purpose, and here he was having breakfast together with people who resemble his family. Erick is a family man, he has a wonderful family, he also very lucky, none of his family mbers contracted the disease.
The village is very isolated, there are only about 50 people living here, most of them are survivors from the surrounding village. As the place are far from the cities, they rarely got any attack from the undead. There are 10 strong n who work together to protect the village. The village is quite peaceful, in tis Alex also join the team and protect the village, he got nothing else to do. Alex becos very close to the family and starts caring for Eric's children like his own, especially Vina, she has too much resemblance to Tiffany.
"I heard from another passing survivor that many people gathering in eastern Bali, there seems to be sothing that cos from the sky which helps the survivor," Erick said during a team eting, they were discussing about moving the group to a bigger survivor area.
Alex actually disagree, he believes with a bigger group, it will be harder to survive as they will have to share resources, and Alex pointed out about how a desperate human are sotis even more dangerous than the undead. The group agree with Alex, so they decided to stay.
Days, turns to weeks, with Alex and Erick beco really close, they are the two backbone of the village, they are the two strongest n, soti during hunt they found mutated animals and zombie which drops so stones, but they didn't know what to do with it.
In tis, Erick becos more restless, he thinks the undead attack beco more frequent, and they have seen mutated ones more often. But so of the group still hesitate to move, so they still haven't made a decision.
One day, Alex and the group can feel sothing bad is coming. The ground is shaking, the trees are falling.. it was the hordes.. the undead in such a massive scales.. there were thousands of them..
the group suddenly feel in regret for not moving sooner.. there are won and children it will be very hard for them to outrun the zombies.
Alex volunteer to create a distraction and delay the hordes. all the other 10 as well except Erick. Alex forbade him to co.
How could 10 n, delay hordes of thousand undead? The group only managed to delay the hordes for 10 minutes. Alex was badly hurt and ran back to go search the villagers.. but he found the grueso bodies and remains. Alex manages to find Ericks, the group was separated but Vina is with him.. Ericks was dying... there was no hope for him.
.

"You must save them... Save as many as you can.."
Ericks last word...
Alex took Vina and search for others.. there is no one else survive...
Erick's wife and son, all died.
Alex manages to save Vina and bring her to the Doomsday Pillars, only Vina he manages to save.
This is a very common story between the survivors... loved one, close friends each and everyone died.. if it wasn't for Vina, Alex would already lose his sanity. It was predicted that only 1% of the world population manage to survive the first year. Each year the monsters only getting stronger.. and after 5 years human beco an endangered species. We run and we hide.
After the incident with Erics, Alex develops a purpose.. to save as many as he can..
people call it ssiah complex or savior complex. but Alex didn't care. its beco his resolve.
He tries to save as many as he can.. but every ti only more people died.. year 7 even Vina died. Alex probably one of the last human to die. its either he is the luckiest or the most unlucky...at the end he also died.

Alex woke up from his sleep, he falls asleep inside an airplane.
.
"The sa dream again"
for Alex the last 11 years was a real nightmare, this nightmare just ends 2 weeks ago. it still engraves to his mory. He awake reincarnated and got a second chance.
"Save as many as you can,"
Alex knows he definitely cannot save everyone, just increasing the survivor of the first year from 1% to 2% would already be considered a success.
"how do you convince 7 billion people that in 2 weeks there will be doomsday?"
Hopefully, I will find the solution in here,
Airplane onboard announcent:
"Please be seated, this plane will soon arrive at our destination, city of Boston, United States."
Alex saw the woman sit next to him, its Aria,
"You actually don't need to follow around"
Aria: "Yes..."
"do you even know what we are trying to do?"
Aria: "No..."
"you don't talk much do you"
Aria: "Yes..."
