My eyes slowly open as I wake up and find myself in my bed.

"What the f-?!!!" I almost cussed out loud before I covered my mouth and looked at the screen in front of me.

'What in the world is this?' I thought as I looked at the screen and read the text for a few minutes. I have heard about the system from my college otaku friends so I knew a few basic things about it.

'Is this screen what they always talked about?' I was so concentrated on the screen that I didn't notice what was written on it, before my eyes drifted to the text,

'Survive the Zombie Horde for the next 5 hours… Zombies will break into your house in 50 minutes?!!!"

I was so shocked my eyes almost popped out as I read the text over and over… I even wondered if this was a dream, but it was too real to be just a dream so I could only gaze at that screen as I saw the time kept ticking slowly and slowly.

'Okay. Not focusing on whether it is a dream or not, let's concentrate on the situation at hand. If I prepare myself against the Zombies, dream or not, prank or not, everything will turn out fine. If it is a dream, I will wake up. If it is a prank, I will just be pranked and people will just laugh at me. In the end it'll be fine.

Worse case scenarios, I am just hallucinating and if things doesn't turn out the way the System says, I can just play dumb,' I thought as I analysed the pros and cons of going along with the quest given to me by the System.

I then closed my eyes and concentrated more, if I could find another path, but before I could think anything more, I finally heard something from a distance.

-Bang!

-Bang!

-Bang!

Someone… or something was pounding on the door. It was so loud that I could hear it all the way to my room.

I slowly gulped as goose bumps were all over my body before I forced myself to get off the bed. I took the walking stick my brother bought me after I fell sick. I used that stick to pull myself up and slowly walked outside my room with its support.

Since the door was open, I just moved outside, trying to make as little sound as possible. I first put my head out of my room to see if there was anything, but fortunately, the small hallway was empty.

-Bang!

-Bang!

-Bang!

Though the noise became more apparent as I reached out of my room. On my left was my brother's room's door at a distance and on my right was a small hallway that was connected to the living room.

The banging on the door and the empty silence that followed after it for a few moments made me feel like my heart would jump out of my body any moment now. Even still, I kept moving forward towards the living room.

One step at a time, I reached closer to the living room. I saw the familiar living room with white-coloured walls and a black sofa placed in front of the huge TV on the wall against me.

On the right side, there was a way to the balcony and on the left side, there was the door to the kitchen. The bathroom was on the left alleyway just where I was standing.

The dining room was connected to the kitchen while the master bedroom was just beside the balcony door.

-Bang!

-Bang!

-Bang!

I looked at the door opposite to where I was standing. The entrance to the apartment was just behind that door. There was also a small guest room between that door and the apartment's entrance.

[Zombies will break into your house in 39 minutes 34 seconds]

I saw the text on the screen and rather than moving towards the entrance, I first moved towards the kitchen. I need to get a weapon, and the only weapon I could think of right now is the kitchen knife we have.

-Bang!

-Bang!

-Bang!

Slowly I walked towards the kitchen and cautiously opened the door of the kitchen, though…

-Creak!

Being old, there was a slight creaking noise produced by the door. Hearing the creaking voice of the kitchen door, I immediately turned towards the door leading towards the entrance. However..

-Bang!

-Bang!

-Bang!

The door was still being banged in the same way as it was before.

But…

[Total Number of Zombies Remaining:6

Zombies will break into your house in 35minutes and 49 seconds]

I gulped at the text before turning at the door again as I kept hearing the noise of the banging in the same manner as before.

Holding my breath, I entered the kitchen and slowly closed it from the inside. My heartbeat was at its peak and because now the door of the kitchen was closed, muffling the outside sound, I could hear my own heart beat loud and clear.

"Now to get…the.. kn..i..fe…"

-Thud!

"Huff… Huff… Huff.. Huff!!!" All that walking took a lot out of me, making me breathless as my sickness took over me as I tumbled down. My eyes looked really scared… not only because there were zombies or whatnot outside my house but also my sickness was getting worse with all this tension and fear.

I checked my fever, and it was really bad right now… I felt like I was burning from the inside out and I could pass out any moment.

'Is this how I am going to die?' I thought as sudden helplessness consumed my mind.
