The Omega Timeline

Chapter 58: The Infection

By MGG

Jay tumbled through the portal and onto cold hard gravel. He heard a crash as another body flew through the portal and into a nearby shop wall. Jay stood up, he clutched his arm in pain, the skin around the cut had turned a deep shade of purple. The city around him was nearly demolished, due to Drain’s siege on the city. The Yi Ling stirred in the ruins of the shop, it snapped out of its unconscious state and sprung to its feet, snarling and searching for its prey. It spotted Jay, standing in the middle of the street, alone, and defenseless. The Yi Ling carefully stepped forward, its eyes scanning the area, looking for any other possible threats. But there was no one. Just Jay. The creature began circling Jay. But, at the moment, even if Jay wanted to, he couldn’t defeat the creature, not entirely at least. He was too tired, too weak. The Yi Ling finely decided that he was indeed, defenseless, it lunged at him. Just as its jaws were about to make contact, a large black blur pushed the beast to the ground. Jay, startled by the sudden action, instinctively hopped to the side. He watched as a large black raptor attempted to get its shot at an easy meal. The two battled for about three long seconds, until the Yi Ling pushed the raptor to the ground, and ripped out its throat. To Jay’s surprise, the raptor twitched for a couple of seconds, then slowly, and clumsily, pulled its self up. It was a terrifying sight, two creatures, neither entirely dead, nor alive, cornering him. In Jay’s mind, he only had one choice, Run. Jay turned and sprinted as fast as humanly possible, with the two zombified dinosaurs close behind him.

Couldn’t think of anything else to write srry. Sorry for taking so long to.
