WAVE 1
ZOMBIE LAB is built 15 floors deep into the underground, all sealed with one and only entrance. All intelligence, research and experiments can only be carried out in this LAB. The LAB was run with maximum security. Within 1 km radius of the LAB’s perimeters is designated as restricted area.
On 15/F of ZOMBIE LAB is where all specimens are stored and observed. The scientists make pseudo-zombies by injecting artificial zombie virus into patients who have just died. General zombification happens in about one hour, while artificial zombification takes up to 24 hours. In other words, scientists have 24 hours to experiment with different vaccines, looking for the right cure. There are currently 36 specimens in the lab. If the specimens don’t react to the vaccine, the eventual zombie has to be killed. Specimen 459 is definitely in the spotlight. Two hours after injecting serum Z34, Specimen 459 showed a decrease in activity level of the zombie virus, and even started displaying human reflexes. Dr. Banner and his team watched 459 across the glazing, measuring the number of reflexes.
After more than two years of research, the team finally saw light at the end of the tunnel. Dr. Banner’s team continued to cautiously observe 459 for the following 8 hours.Banner left the LAB with serum Z34 and a viral agent, heading off to his office on 10/F to continue his research. He felt jaded as he walked along the long corridor, reminiscing all the failures the team had gone through. The ultimate goal was to develop a vaccine that could suppress the virus before it made a human being a zombie. When number of zombies goes down, this means that the human race has triumphed.
‘Doctor! Run!’ Dr. Banner’s intercom suddenly shouted. Emergency lights flashed, indicating a code red in LAB 51 District.
‘Dr. Banner, please come to the control room immediately.’ The supervisor’s voice came out of the intercom. Banner knew at once there was an incident, so he dashed to the control room on 11/F. He opened the door to find his staff wailing, ‘the laboratory on 15/F has turned into a dead man’s land…’ Banner looked at the CCTV footage to witness all his researchers being attacked by the specimens. He was speechless seeing all this. Banner eventually pulled himself together and asked, ‘What has happened?’
‘459 went berserk on the apparatus and then lost consciousness. When the researchers thought he died like other failed specimens and opened the observation room, 459 suddenly woke up and attacked the researcher.’
‘And then?’
‘459 ran to other observation rooms and freed other specimens. The whole LAB went into chaos in less than 5 minutes.’
‘So all the researchers…’
‘I’m so sorry, Doctor.’
‘The specimens are now trying to open the gate to other floors.’
‘We don’t have time to discuss. We need to evacuate. There are now over a dozen dead zombies in LAB 51 District. We need help.’
The staff in the control room had no choice but to escape with Dr. Banner. At the same time, the zombies have also started raiding multiple floors. Anyone the zombies came across were made into new zombies, and the entire LAB went into a state of madness.
WAVE 3
On a busy work day, sudden screams came from the corner of the block. “Argh!” “Run for it!” “Monsters!” Bane, a banker who had just finished his lunch, saw zombies flooding out of the lab, and he too took off immediately. He seemed to almost know instantly that he had to go to open areas, the higher the better. There was only one place to go in this area – Tower 101.
Zoe, a female student, waved her sword in attempts to attack the zombie, shouting “go away!” loudly. Bane was escaping when he spotted to the girl and realized she was outnumbered. Bane needed to save her. Bane picked up a bat nearby and fought with Zoe. They finally escaped from the zombies and ran into Tower 101.
Bane and Zoe fled into Tower 101 along with many other survivors. They went to different floors and fought the zombies alongside residents there. During the battle, Bane learnt about Zoe, and how she lost her parents to zombie bites in the earliest zombie apocalypse 3 years ago.
WAVE 5
There was a restaurant on the street of Tower 101. The staircase of the restaurant’s rooftop connected to the 3rd floor garden podium of Tower 101.
Olivia and Ashley escaped to the street where Tower 101 was 50 minutes into the zombie outbreak. Near the main entrance of Tower 101 was a group of zombies fighting over human corpses.
They knew this wasn’t the right way, so they decided to take detour around the restaurant into Tower 101. When the door opened, a man in a suit called Kobe told them to tread lightly. There was a zombie in the kitchen feeding on a corpse. But to reach the rooftop of the restaurant, they had to go through the kitchen.
Just as the three of them approached the kitchen, the zombie picked up the smell on Ashley’s body. It turned around and charged at them. The three of them picked up anything that was lying around them as weapons.
Kobe explained, “As long as you damage its head severely, you can destroy their nervous system.”
Kobe blocked the zombie’s sharp teeth with a trash can as Olivia jumped out from behind, with a knife and rammed the blade into the zombie’s eyeball. The zombie seemed to slow down, and Ashley took the opportunity to behead the zombie. After the zombie was killed, they ran up the stairs into Tower 101.
