Today is a special day. A day filled with hope.
But before I get to that—let me tell you why I’m here.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8aVmXEGbw
My name is Pugazh, 19 years old. I was just a regular student with dreams of becoming... something. But all of that shattered when the apocalypse began. Trust me, surviving the end of the world is way harder than what you see in movies. This is all because of a virus...
They call it Z31.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDWCTGwN4T
It started in Kuala Lumpur. Within 6 days, the virus swept through the entire country like wildfire. 95% of Malaysia’s population was infected. But strangely, the virus had no effect on animals or plants—only humans.

I was still in school when I first saw the infected. My whole family… gone.
I only survived because of Agilan—my schoolmate, my hero.
He saved me that day, and we’ve stuck together ever since.

Now, after 231 days, we live here—a university in Perak that we’ve turned into a survival base.
We call it the U-Zone.

The U-Zone
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7ZWLyhg46
U-Zone is our safe haven. It was a public university once, but now it's home. We’re a small community of 56 survivors. We call ourselves The Perakians, because most of us are from Perak.

Our chief is a former hunter—tough, quiet, wise.
We have an inventor (Mr. Shaiful), a retired army commander, a lady doctor, a mamak chef, a farmer, a musician, a few police officers, students, and even a granny who once worked as a midwife.
We also have pets—dogs, cats, even a hamster. We raise chickens, goats, and cows for food.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QmjjQQVNJ
Thanks to solar panels and pedal-powered systems (built by Mr. Shaiful), we have electricity. And he even built a short-range radio network. That man is a genius.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2Qll3fJbs
The U-Zone layout includes:
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJISk86Efi
A central hall (now a dining and meeting area)
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UPAJ7Ov4B
A rooftop garden for growing herbs and veggies
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ0ssDrEqO
Converted classrooms for dorms
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu1yFh6n7k
Medical room, food storage, kitchen, and watchtowers

And now, about those infected...

We call them The Rottens.
They're not just zombies—they’re worse.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYVsphLmYZ
They retain some traits from their human selves. For example, if someone couldn’t speak before they were infected, they become silent attackers. That’s terrifying.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJRtdEJcO7
And there are others… the Bulks.
Huge, mutated Rottens that take three headshots to bring down. One punch from a Bulk can break a wall. We don’t fight them unless absolutely necessary.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURJrDqhh3R
That’s why our chief believes staying away from the outside world is the best way to survive. And honestly, he’s right.

But today… everything changed.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM7DAfVu51
One of the police officers and the musician woman who came here months ago… fell in love. And now, she’s pregnant.
This morning, she went into labor.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvHFi4kkLz
Despite limited medical supplies, our doctor and nurse are prepared. We also have that wise old Indian grandma who once helped in home births back in her kampung days.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEJYKTY8zw
All of us waited. Prayed.
Not just to one god—we have all races and religions here. We believe that hope doesn’t belong to one faith.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHJYGJepBO
At exactly 8:46 AM, we heard the cry. A baby girl.
The first baby born after the apocalypse. Her cry echoed through the U-Zone like sunlight piercing through dark clouds.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc58YfdB3kZ
The chief named her: Hope.

That night, we celebrated.
No loud music, no fireworks—but there was warmth, and smiles, and for the first time in a long time… peace.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaT3wjUBUGi
But peace doesn’t last long in this world.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKIsTnHafF
Just before midnight, a voice crackled through the radio from the south watchtower.
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6FHmbtrSO
“New incoming.”
410Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1165rOIXT
Someone was at the main gate. Alive.
Or at least... not yet Rotten.
