Chapter 1
The door was opened firmly by someone so it damaged its hinges. Seen middle-aged men wearing Geophysical laboratory uniforms ran in a strange way. His body was unbalanced and not boned. His face was pale with bulging eyes, but his pupils were pulled upwards. The mouth opened wide and let out a growling sound. The man continued to run towards someone who was about to enter the elevator that was going to go upstairs.
"Grrrr! Grrrrr!"
Hearing the sound of people running and the horrible growl, the young man who was about to enter the elevator turned his back. How surprised he was when he saw that there were humans who were like zombies.
"Let'soooooo!" the young man shouted as this zombie-like creature lunged at him until it fell onto the elevator floor.
The zombie bit the young man's neck and hands. Not long after that his body shook violently, his pupils rose and his mouth opened wide. Yes, the young man also turned like a creature that bit him just now.
The elevator went upstairs or rather the first floor because it was in the basement. As soon as the door of the iron box opened the two zombies ran in no direction along the first floor.
"Hey, what are they both doing?" asked one of the Geophysical Laboratory security officers to his guard friend.
"What's wrong?" ask his thick-bodied friend.
The two officers continued to pay attention to the monitor screen which captured footage of two people changing their behavior in their eyes. The eyes of the two people immediately widened when they saw the two suddenly attacked the other Geophysical laboratory employees.
"What happened to them?" shouted the officer who was medium in stature.
The bodies of the two officers immediately limp and disappear after seeing the incident that befell laboratory workers who were overtime. Those who were attacked suddenly changed like the two people earlier.
"A–pa they turned into va–mpi?" ask the officer who was stammering.
His whole body was flooded with cold sweat so scared of him. His two eyes could not escape from the monitor screen which featured four zombies running to and fro with their mouths open.
"No. I think they turned into zom–zombies," replied the skinny officer stuttered.
"Zombies?" The other man parroted and turned his gaze to his co-workers, as if he was afraid that the person sitting next to him would change suddenly as well.
The emergency sign button was pressed and in the next second the sound of the danger sign sounded loud. People who are overtime in the Geophysics laboratory of course become panicked because this place is dangerous. Where many scientists who often do experiments or research something.

"Honey, cook what?" ask a grown man and kiss his wife on the cheek.
The man who was still wearing the Geophysical laboratory uniform with the name tag Aron was clearly printed there.
"Sop your favorite rib, Darling," replied Maria, his wife.
"Well, after tired of working all day finally this body will be spoiled by your delicious cuisine," said Aron teasing the wife.
Mary smiled sweetly. She liked to be needed like this by her husband. This woman rarely gets things like this because Aron spends more time in the Geophysical laboratory where he works.
"Darling, please call Lewis! Take her out to eat together, "please ask Maria to Aron, because she wants to have dinner with her family.
Lewis is playing online games. Even when the door of his room opened he did not turn at all to see who was coming. His eyes must not be separated from the television screen so as not to be defeated by the enemy.
Aron only sighed harshly when he saw his only son always spent time playing games. It was very different from her when she was young. He likes to spend time with scientific study and practice.
"True again, Dad. It's a responsibility, nih!" sahut Lewis refused his father's invitation.
Aron walked and sat on the desk chair of the child's learning.
It looks a lot of neatly lined digs that number in the tens or maybe almost hundreds. Beside him was a glass cabinet displaying many trophies.
Lewis is a smart kid, he's just lazy to exercise. Especially if he fights, he will definitely be battered. If children his age mostly like to play basketball or softball, Aron prefers to play games like today.
The thing that Mary often feared for their son was Lewis who would get sick easily because he did not like to exercise. But in reality, this child is rarely sick.
Maria, who was putting liquid into her cooking, was shocked when she heard the sound of Aron and Lewis approaching. The small-sized bottle was quickly put into the apron pocket so as not to be suspected by them.
The Lewis family spent their dinner until they were not left alone. They really like Sop ribs or grilled ribs as a family favorite menu. The two people no one felt strange with the taste of the always delicious Maria cuisine.
The sound of a phone ringing that made the three people stunned so surprised.
Maria picked up the call and it turned out that the one who contacted it came from the center of the Geophysics lab. They wanted to speak to Aron who served as the head of the research team.
"Hello, what's wrong?" ask Leon.
"Groom, Mr. Walker. The situation in the Geophysics laboratory building today is completely chaotic. Everyone turned into zombies!" yelled the man across there.
Aron still did not understand the meaning of the words of the person who was contacting him. He thinks it's not time for a Halloween party.
"Grrrr! Grrrr!
"Aaaaa" cried the man who was contacting Aron.
"Hello! Hello …!" aron shouted back and looked panicked.
Lewis and Maria who saw it became curious what was going on at the center of the Geophysics lab. Somewhere that's always strict guarding.
"What's up, Darling?" ask Maria.
"Says they turned into zombies," Aron replied still with a puzzled facial expression.
"Zombies?" reworked Lewis to confirm his hearing.
"Yes, he said that the people in the lab turned into zombies" Aron said, then took a glass of water and drank it to the end.
Mary and Lewis looked at each other. They suspect that Aron is in a state of hallucination, due to fatigue due to continuing to stay up late and work in the laboratory for five days.
"I'm not lying. I even heard a growl and then the screams of the person who called me earlier. It was a scream of fear mixed with pain" continued Aron.
"Then, is Daddy going there now?" ask Lewis.
