Dead Days Zombie Apocalypse Series (Season 8)

But she was still standing opposite him.
“Riley?” she said.
As the seconds passed, Riley’s heart started racing. Reality started to disintegrate, somewhat. He couldn’t process what he was looking at. He couldn’t understand what was happening.
Only that this wasn’t a ghost in front of him.
This wasn’t a ghost at all.
This was real.
This was…
She stepped towards him, and Riley saw her eye. He saw the small hole by the side of it, where she’d been hit.
He saw her dark hair.
He saw her shocked, ajar mouth, just like it used to be.
He saw it, and he dropped to his knees.
He dropped to his knees because she wasn’t a ghost.
She was real.
She was here.
She hadn’t died at Heathwaite’s. Somehow, she hadn’t died.
She was alive.
He watched her walk towards him, as if in slow motion, and he searched his mind for all the things to say.
But in the end, there was only one word he could manage.
“Anna?” he said. “Anna?”
CHAPTER ELEVEN
Cody looked out of the door, Michael by his side, and he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
“How…” he started. He actually felt pretty faint. Just like Michael told him he would. It was all too much to take in. All too much to accept.
“Welcome,” Michael said. “Welcome to the new world.”
The last things Cody heard was the laughter of schoolchildren making their way back home. The barking of dogs chasing one another around a nearby park.
And the buzz of traffic as it rushed by…
This wasn’t the new world.
This was the old world, just how it used to be.
And Cody was standing right in front of it.
