A Cheat's Survival Journal

Chapter 24 - The Meeting

After the event that happened, Rick was taken to a temporary place to be stay at until he wakes up. Pete got a new house. And I was estranged by the people who live here, I didn't care since I got what I wanted. But now I have to fight for a place where I can keep what I wanted, safe from harm. There will be a meeting tomorrow night about Rick and I, they fear rick because he is from outside the walls and that he beat Pete then pointed a gun at everyone who was there.

Why do they fear me? I have to eat people to stay alive, that scares them since they think I'll kill them in their sleep and eat them. I'll leave it for tomorrow, I can mend this situation by saving Reg's life; someone who they all admire and respect for putting up a wall, keeping them safe from zombies along with people which they believe. I went home and informed Jessie of what happened, including the part of me saying that I eat human flesh to live. Why hide it when she'll find out from the exaggerated mouths within these walls? Jessie asked me, "You don't plan on eating the people that live here, right?" I shook my head no and explained, "I don't care to eat them. All I need is a single body and that'll last me for a month, all I have to do is find a bad person out there and lop off their head."

"All I care about is keeping Edin safe. This place, even though it drives people who are from outside the walls mad from how different it is. It's perfect to have a family and I do believe that it'll be more adaptable for newcomers in the future." Jessie listened to my words and nodded before saying, "Alright then, we'll stay here with you. Just don't eat in front of us, okay?" I gave her a thumbs up before going into the bas.e.m.e.nt, I left the door open in case someone needs me. The guns, the fridge filled with flesh? Of this moment, I don't feel like it's necessary to hide since they can take the guns and I can create new ones.

I began spending Z-Points to buy computer parts, server racks, chassis, SSDs, cables, monitors, ethernet hubs, modems, and laptops for the school. Even though the people are currently against me, I still didn't stop in a stand still and began working on my project as a goal and distraction. I spent a 100,000 Z-Points but it's nothing compared to the benefits of having a local network, I bought a few books about languages like C++, C#, JavaScript, Java, HTML, LUA, Assembly x86, CSS, and things like networking and databasing, that came to about 1,500 Z-Points. I sat down at a desk and began studying throughout the day, I had a few curious peeks from two people instead of three probably because of Carol scaring Sam about monsters eating him alive.

I was absorbing the information and comprehending it like a sponge that never seemed satisfied. I ignored the knocks at the door and continued my business inside the bas.e.m.e.nt, eventually someone came down and looked around. It was Edin and she was amazed of all the things down here, all neatly organized since searching for something is a hassle. Edin asked, "How did you get all this?" I calmly said as I finished the last book which was about databasing, "Magic. Want to learn how to build your own computer?" She laughed and said, "There's no internet, why would we need computers?" I laughed at that and explained, "Indeed, there is no longer any internet but that doesn't mean we can't create our own network. Come, I'll help you make the greatest computer here; except for mine that is." Edin smiled and we built the first computer which was hers together, of course I bought new parts from the system taking away another 5,000.

Finished her computer, she went back upstairs and I began building my computer which I had already bought the parts for. I found an OS from the system which was a combination of Windows 7 and Linux, it was shockingly pretty lightweight as well; creating more performance and flexibility. I had bought disc copies of Visual Studio 2016, CodeBlocks, Eclipse, Google Chrome, IDA, OllyDbg, etc. I installed those on my computer and reversed engineered them so that nothing indicates that they are from the future since seeing 2016 in 2010 is a big question that many would ask me about, I would like to avoid that.

I spent the entire night and the following day until it was time to go to the meeting. The goods news? Everything was ready and all I had to do was code software and create domains along with buying more software. But for now, I went upstairs and locked the bas.e.m.e.nt door before taking a shower then going to the meeting. I was smiling consider I completed 3 server racks and built 30 computers; 1 server had linux and the other two had the server dedicated windows for windows 7. The total storage added up to 3 petabytes and that is more than enough for this community.

While I was walking through the night and arriving to the meeting, I was Pete carrying Michonne's blade. I smiled and thought, 'When a broke man wields a blade, someone is bound to die.' I followed along steadily and calmly stalked him. When he arrived, he shouted towards the people, "He's not one of us!" Reg began to try and reason with him, Pete with a final shout yelled, "Get away!" All before shoving and attempting to slit Reg's throat, I say attempted for the slicing of Reg's throat. Who was sliced? I was the one who was sliced. I used my inhuman agility and moved Reg out of the way, taking a fatal wound going from the lower part of my neck and my c.h.e.s.t.

The world around me went silent, I had butterflies in my stomach and didn't know why until something came up. [Host... Due to the fear of death, your sub conscious is causing you to transform into a complete kakuja. Thankfully due to the clarity, the transformation was complete and not incomplete allowing you to maintain sanity. It is recommend that you take Pete and leave before you transform. The possibility of future transformation being incomplete still has a margin for error.] I looked at Pete and said, "Your.. fault." Grabbing him, I didn't care if they saw my inhuman speeds and strength, I grabbed him and ran towards the wall before jumping over it entirely with Pete in my grip.

I felt my wound heal but something else was beginning to happen... Why the hell does a katana have to be so sharp?! Thankfully, it just missed my artery by a single cm else I would of been choking on my own blood.
