Fair warning, this excerpt is a bit gory. If you tend to feel nauseated by gory text, please read at your own discretion.
~~~
Tommy was found in the parking garage of the Hourglass Hotel and Casino, decapitated and devoured. I stood there in utter shock, slowly becoming more and more nauseous. I was disappointed in both myself and him. My body sunk to the floor, almost becoming one with it.
Angela was horrified by what she witnessed through her retrocognition, though she managed to pull herself together and relay the information back to us. Tommy was en route six for our daily patrols as he passed his way through the hotel and into the parking garage. He was caught off guard by two bloaters and three stalkers. As he tried to gain distance between himself and the stalkers, a bloater came from behind him, grabbing him by the roof of his mouth and his jaw, tearing his skull from his spine. The bloaters continued elsewhere while the stalkers stayed behind to feast on the corpse.
It’s been a whole season since the apocalypse started. Summer heading into autumn, the humid days slowly turning into a colder, more manageable weather. Angela was found abandoned at a church by her division for being too physically weak and unable to handle her own. Ivan was bleeding out from a gunshot wound in the leg by an opposing force when we found him. Tommy, Tay and I have stuck together for a while, abandoning our previous group due to their consistent murderous intent; hell bent on killing any survivors they found.
Tommy is now deceased, leaving us with one less helping hand.
With my nausea worsening, I started to lose my sight; my vision becoming blurry.
I wasn’t meant to lead this team.
I felt my consciousness slipping, and I passed out.
