Taking place during and after Nevermore, Brody and his girlfriend are the last non enhanced humans after the apocolypse. Brody is a huge fan of Fang and his blog and is going to try to find him and the flock. The only problem is he has no idea where to start and is going off of the feeling that they are alive and a voice inside his head.

The Living chapter 1

I stared at the news playing on the TV. Everyone in the room was silent at the shocking

words being said on the screen. My dad, my girlfriend, whose parents had both died in an accident, and me. I have no siblings and my mom ran off with another dude years before we moved to this island where my father was born. My name is brodie, im 15 years old and im a weight lifter. I love watermelons and pumpkin spice lattes and ice cream. I have brown hair, tan skin, im 6'2 and i have green eyes. (there's just a little info on me before we start.)

"After the wild spread of this new deadly disease, the world is preparing itself for the apocalypse. As a wave of natural disasters swipes the globe, a seemingly large comet is burning the atmosphere all around the world!"

Pictures filled the screen of a large gap in the sky revealing dark space. I saw my dad cover his mouth in shock. "Oh my gosh…" he whispered. The news continued on:

"People around the world are preparing themselves for their final moments. As a last word today i would advise you to do the same."

And with that she straightened the papers on her desk and saluted to us before playing the end theme to the news channel one more time. I didnt move. I was completely frozen to the spot. Is fang and the flock still alive? Does he know about this? I thought of all of Fang's blogs. Of course he knows. Where is Fang this time? Just then a loud alarm went off. It was the warning that the volcano was erupting.

"Oh no...No no no no.. No!" My girlfriend Kierstin started screaming. Everyone was freaking out! I stood up. "Come on we need to get to the water!" I yelled.

Me and my girlfriend were scurrying outside but my dad didn't move. "Im not leaving.I was born on this island, and i will die on this island."

My heart fluttered. "Dad no, please- don't make this difficult. We have to get out of here!"

My dad stood up and a brave determined expression crossed his face. "No. You and Kierstin get out of here. My family was raised here. If it goes in flames, i'm going with it."

Now, i didn't understand my dad's reasonings one bit but i couldn't argue. "Ok. I love you dad, im sorry." I ran to him and hugged him, getting one last smell of his cologne before taking off with my girlfriend, tears falling down my cheeks.
