kamio

Zeek immediately tossed his computer away and started running. Ok I gotta get out of the forest and to the nearby town to hide out there for a bit, Zeek thought to himself as he ran. While he was running he noticed the sound of the military trucks and helicopters started getting further away. Turns out they were only tracking him through his laptop, now they would probably have to check the whole Forest for him. As he kept running he decided since they can't track him he shouldn't get into town since that's the first place they would check, instead he would run for the nearby river and try to get on a boat. After 30 minutes of straight running he finally reached the river docks. This might be the only time I'm genuinely happy about having kamio, he said to himself as he ran to a random sailboat, he went over to the chain holding the boat to the dock. How am I going get this lock off, he mumbled to himself as he tried ripping the lock in two, to his surprise it actually worked, as the locks top and bottom clattered to the ground, he quickly undid the chain and hopped on the boat before quickly realizing he didn't know how to drive a boat and was now rapidly floating down stream. Lucky for me this is the way I wanted to go, straight toward the ocean, he said while smiling to himself, they would never guess he would go by river, after all this dock was only known to locals and wasn't even on the map. As he kept going down the river he pulled out his phone and removed the sim card before throwing the sim card into the water, I had downloaded a survival guide on my phone when I was first leaving so I should be fine for now, he thought to himself as he was floating down stream. He decided to check out the boat which would probably be his new home until he reached the ocean, it was a fairly small sailboat with a small staircase under a hatch that went to a small bed and kitchenette, it apparently had small solar panels on the top also had a couple fishing rods, some other fishing supplies, and a on ship electric water purifier which could turn even ocean water into clean drinking water. After assessing the boat he determined he could probably survive here for as long as he wanted. As days passed he fished, planned , worked out and slept, he decided he was to sail around the south half of the US until he reached the the point where he could sail north and reach New York. As the trip progressed he finally slowly started learning how to sail the boat, he sometimes made shortstops in towns to sell of his excess fish for a little money until he finally reached the ocean, after about 37 days of sailing he had about 25 percent of his kamio mask, every day that past he could feel it's power and influence over him growing, even as he had been planing his mind was growing more fuzzy by the day, by the time he reached New York he had already lost 25 percent control to it. As he docked on land for the first time in 37 days he gathered his things took he took his backpack which he attached a small solar panel to so he could charge things, about 20 days of water and food, and lastly once he got off the boat he lit a piece of wood on fire with the stove on threw it at the boat destroying any trace of his journey here. As a American citizen it was pretty easy to travel from the very beginning of the state of New York to right next to the city, he used the money he saved up and a mask to hide is kamio mask to get on a series of busses up here, now the reason he came here is that even though so many years have passed since it's construction a law passed in 2042 made it stay exactly the way it was, low security and all. As he entered the empty city long abandoned since the technology never advance here he used his newfound strength to break off a padlock to a empty storage unit to set up camp, first he placed down the electric stove top he took from the boat and hook the up to the wall along with snatching a new lock from the abandoned office where you would rent one of the storage units from. Well this my home now, at least until I find something better, he says to himself looking at the inside of his rundown storage unit home. He sighs to himself leaning on the wall, thinking about what life could've been if he hadn't got infected with kamio, he admitted to himself he liked the power it brought him but it really wasn't worth feeling your mind slowly slipping away from you, he sighed again as he walked to the entrance to his storage unit as he unlocked it and left. Moping around won't fix anything might as well go scavenging for stuff he said as he locked the unit behind him. As he walked around he spotted a rather interesting store as he was walking around, it was a home repair store. He threw a brick through the window before entering. He saw all the home renovation and repair stuff so he decided he could probably spruce up his unit. As he carried stuff back to his unit on his fifth trip he saw someone, it was only for a second but he was sure he just saw someone enter the sewers. After delivering the last load to his storage unit he decided he should probably not worry about what that was, if it was an infected like him all he could do is hope his mask progress was further the there's.
