Cryptovacuum Fortunalis
The Untold Story about the VOID - PART 14
[Continuation…]
ZC: Well, at least your name will also go down in history as the guy who discovered a new species, being, or… whatever that is, alongside the famous Zombie Cat… hahaha
R: [ignores the “famous Zombie Cat” remark] Yeah… now there’s that… sharing what’s probably the greatest discovery of the millennium with… you.
ZC: Who would’ve guessed, right? hahaha
ZC: So, what are we gonna call… that… by the way?

[A chill runs down his spine, and his stomach drops like he’s on a rollercoaster]
ZC: Is it… THERE?!
[Sounds of nails scraping on the floor, like a dog running with its nails hitting on every step]

[Call drops abruptly]
ZC: Holy shit…
