A Cheat's Survival Journal

While going up the stairs to the roof, Rick was receiving the rundown of the consequences of shooting a gun. Reaching the roof, everyone was calling Merle out and asking why is he shooting a gun. He proceeded to T-Dog and Merle fighting, T-Dog had lost and ended up with a gun pointed at his head. While Merle starts his democracy vote, I took my Kar98k and whacked him in the back of the head. Rick followed up and handcuffed him to the pipes and told him, "There's no (Insert word here) anymore. Only white meat and black meat. It's us against the dead. We have to survive together, not apart from each other." I coughed and asked, "Does that also apply to me? I'm not giving my gear and findings to anyone who I don't like, even if I'm apart of a group. I also don't plan on joining you guys, I got other things to do." Rick looked up at me and gave me a face that said not the right time to say that. I smiled and said in an almost fake tone, "Still have to protect our own. Racism is narrow-minded and can lead to abandonment." Rick nodded and Merle started to chuckle a bit and exclaimed, "Pretty boy over here is pretty funny." His words had two different meanings from what I could tell, I couldn't care less though.

With the little play between Rick, Merle, and myself, the rest along with Rick started thinking of ways of how to get out from here and get back to their camp. Glenn, Andrea, Jacqui, Morales, and Rick went down to the bas.e.m.e.nt to try and find a way out from the sewers. I relaxed with T-Dog on the roof while he tried to get a radio signal, I was thinking about practicing my marksmanship. While I was debating if I should since making any more noise will be meaningless. Merle decided to taunt me, "Hey, pretty boy, how about you and your friend get me out of these cuffs?" I chuckled, "So you can beat his a.s.s then beat mine after hitting you in the head with my gun?" He was about to continue but I cut him off saying, "No, you're irrational and you being free will only cause more issues to come up. You'll be let out when we make our escape." Merle scoffed at me and went back to being quiet.

With the silence once again coming again besides T-Dog trying to contact their camp occasionally, I was getting bored and started to think of what my free wish should be. I was musing a bunch of options until I thought of my previous idea and decided to capitalize it to ease my current loneliness, totally not because it'll cause a bunch of questions to rise up from my old world; totally not the reason, absolutely not. I nodded my head agreeing to my self brainwashing and proceed to wish for the ability to connect to all universes, multiverses, and omniverses' internet/network with my mind being the computer and my senses being the camera, mic, and what not.

The system notified me, [You receive a message from god. He says, "You're troublesome, take your wish and stay away from me."]

Obviously I gladly complied even though I'm sure I'll encounter him one day, you can't escape from crazy after giving love to crazy. But in this case the love is wishes! I'll be back one day for more, possibly when I die. [Ability received: Jin's Self-Embodiment Universal Computer & Internet Service Provide w/ Infinite Upload & Download speeds!] 'System? You know that's a terrible name, right? Just call it the Universal Wireless PC of Infinite Internet Speed. [Sure, but still it's a bad name. But better than the previous name.] I nodded and thought, 'Indeed, it's such an odd ability that you just don't know what the hell to call it.'

While I was making a cringe worthy wish and speaking to the system, the group returned to the roof and gave us bad news that would immediately be solved. I wanted to speed this up while trying to get brownie points with Rick for later on and informed everyone, saving me a couple of seconds, "They're drawn by sound, they can see and smell you as well. We smell alive, they smell dead. Use a diversion, the construction site has trucks that always have keys on the site. What you have to do is, lather two people in zombie guts, go to the construction site, take a truck, bring your duo to a car that will be definitely make noise, hot wire the car, and they'll draw the attention of the zombies and the one in the truck will pick everyone up. Any questions? No? Good."

Everyone looked towards and Rick said, "That's a good plan. Where did you do before the breakout?" I shrugged and said, "I played chess but my entire high school was the board, I was always bored so I made a bit of chaos to entertain me. When the world went to hell, I was ecstatic. I have perfect memory so learning is too easy for me making everything boring since with knowledge, you win in life. Yeah, yeah, you think I'm crazy. The reason why I was ecstatic is because I can finally walk a path of uncertainty and true freedom. I plan on making a community somewhere, recreate a bit of technology, get an education system for basic knowledge and combat, make an army, then an army for elites, and live peacefully. I want my own sanctuary that is fair and neutral. For that to happen, I need to make a disciplinary committee and enforce the rules, make a farm, make a- I'm rambling, aren't I?"

Andrea spoke up and said exasperated, "Yeah.. Yeah, you are." This earned a chuckle from everyone, including Merle. Rick spoke and said, "Though you're an odd one, with your ambition, I believe you'll become a great leader. But for now, lets get out of here first."
