Scenes of the Apocalypse #11 - Noises Change















For the first weeks after the Apocalypse,
noise will be constant. There will be screams and gunshots most often, but also
weather, structures collapsing, and battles for survival. These noises will
slowly die out until a heavy silence hangs on the world. When it’s broken,
people will pay attention because it is so rare.












Alarms and days of having warnings will
be a thing of the past. Survivors will have to rely on their senses and
instincts, especially when it comes to Mother Nature. Like in the clip below
from my new release, some of the more ‘ready’ refugees will use these moments
as opportunities to escape the clutches of those trying to take the things
they’ve gathered. Food, water, and women will have replaced cash as the
currency and the survivors will have to be ready to defend what’s theirs.
Paying attention to the noise of the post-apocalyptic world will save lives and
provide safety in a world where little of that exists.





















"Seven very
gifted survivors are destined to rebuild their country after a nuclear
apocalypse...If they can stay alive long enough to find each other. Impossible
to put down."

“What’s that sound?”





They stilled at her question, able to
feel it under their feet, even so far above the town. It echoed hungrily,
bearing down on Howes like a missile.





“What is it?”





No one answered. They couldn’t, too
stunned by the sight of death rushing toward the unsuspecting group of killers.
The transport truck was next to cross, one jeep already waiting on the opposite
bank, and none of them seemed to notice the louder roar or the extra echo under
their tires.





The wall of debris-laden water swept
downstream, wider than the bank as it slammed into the first bridge pillar with
no mercy. The jeep on the opposite bank vanished under the flood and didn’t
come back up.





The bridge trembled, swaying as the
sabotaged beams gave way and the transport carrier tilted precariously over the
new abyss.





The wall of water snagged the front
bumper, ripping it free of the dock, and the entire load of truck, tank, and
bridge fell into the violently churning waves. Behind it, the Slavers tried to
turn around, but most were too slow to avoid being swept away.





The only ones to get clear were the two
rear jeeps and as if sensing survivors, the torrent spilt between the dock and
street, roaring through the narrow road in pursuit.





Adrian’s semi was pulled out into the
street by the waves, and the slower of the two jeeps turned sharply to the
right to miss crashing into it. The tail lights flashed as the driver tried to
stop, but it was too late and they went over the side of the dock. A huge spray
rose up in their wake.





The second jeep was gaining ground on
the water, staying ahead, and Adrian grabbed the rifle from his back.





“Follow my lead.” He got set and Kenn
and Marc did the same on either side of him.





Neil was almost whining with frustration
from not being in on the action, but he knew better than to shirk his unspoken
duty to protect Angela right now and he stayed close to her.





Making fast adjustments, Adrian braced as
the jeep charged up the hill they were on. “Now!” Adrian saw it go perfectly in
his mind, and then fired.
