The After War
by Brandon Zenner
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Dystopian, post
apocalyptic
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Brain Rhodes and his
cousin, Steven, are leaving the protection of their underground bunker for the
first time, after a cataclysmic war and unrelenting disease ravaged the earth.
On the other side of the
North American continent, young Simon Kalispell is leaving the safety and
seclusion of his cabin deep in the woods, traveling with his aging canine
companion, Winston.
For individual reasons,
these men are traveling east, where the fragmented lives of a small number of
survivors will soon be decided by the choices of a corrupt few.
Simon Kalispell and
Brian Rhodes are not yet aware, but the strength that resides inside them will
soon be tested, and destiny will call for their fates to be forever
intertwined.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT THREE:
Brian
lowered his gun. “It’s okay, Steve. He’s dead.” He looked around. “There’s no
one here.”
Steven
lowered his rifle, wiping his palms on his thighs and brushing the sweat from
his eyes.
“I said
he’s dead, Steve—”
“I reckon
he’s dead, Brian. I see he’s dead.”
“Come on
now. We’re right at town.”
They
sidestepped the corpse until it was well behind them. If the body was someone
they had once known, it was now impossible to determine who that person might
have been.
“That
won’t be the last of them,” Brian said. “You better get your head on straight.”
Steven
opened his mouth to speak, but then shut it again.
They
stepped onto the road as the first house emerged from the woods. They walked
past it, taking careful notice of the blank windows—as black as the eye sockets
of the corpse—and scanned for any sign of movement, like the fluttering of
drapes, or the partially covered face of a person peering out from the darkness
with a shotgun clenched tight in their hands. Anything.
But there
was no movement.
“Think
anyone’s left?” Steven said, with a crack in his voice.
Brian
shrugged. “I know as much as you do.”
The yards
around the homes, and Pearl Street itself, were spotted with litter and debris
of every kind blowing in the gentle breeze. Overgrown tree roots buckled
sections of the sidewalk and emerged from cracks in the pavement. They passed
the police station bordering the center of town. The cruisers were vacant in
the parking lot, and the building was cold and silent.
