CHAPTER ONE: BEGINNING OF THE END, CLICHÉ FOR YA

"Promise that we would be together and married when we're older?" A little five year old girl said with a bright smile. She has long, orange-brown hair with bangs and two strands sticking out above the rest of her hair. She has reddish-brown eyes. She was also dressed in a pink shirt with a jeans jacket over it and a skirt with blue shoes.

"Aha!" A small boy responded.

HOTDA

"I don't know how this happened. But it was too late before everything I knew came crashing down to hell."

A male teen about seventeen was running on what seems to be a school rooftop, bloodied corpses that were supposed to stay dead moving about to get him. He has an average height with purple hued brown eyes, spiky black hair with grey ends, and a slender yet reasonably powerful build that contributes to his agility. He wears a set of earrings that were a red, black and yellow chained like link design. His attire consists of his black school uniform with a red T-shirt underneath, black pants, and white school shoes.

Held in his right hand was a wooden baseball bat.

Besides him was a female about eighteen. She has long, orange-brown hair with bangs and two strands sticking out above the rest of her hair. She also usually has a small, single ponytail on the back of her head, leaving the rest of her hair long. She has reddish-brown eyes, a slender figure, and ample E-cup sized breasts. She was dressed in a buttoned down white shirt with a green skirt sailor uniform and a green scarf. She also wears a set of white socks and shoes.

Held in her hands was a broom stick with a twisted end.

They were also accompanied by third person, a male about seventeen. He has grey hair and brown eyes and was as built as the first male. He also wears a uniform equal to the other male, but buttoned closed.

His left bicep seemed to have a cloth wrapped around it and was bleeding.

"Quick! This way!" The grey tipped blackette shouted as he swung his bat, hitting a groaning person with grey dead skin marks and yellow pulsing veins that was near him. As he neared a wall, he swung his bat once again, hitting another dead-like male in the head that sent him flying to the side.

"C'mon, Hisashi!" The girl cried out as she rammed her broken broomstick into the chest of a female and kicked her away.

"I'm right behind you!" The one now known as Hisashi shouted as he looked ahead. "Takashi, behind you!" He warned.

The bat wielding male looked just as a female was about to bite him. He ducked under her arms and flipped her far over, slamming her into a wall. "Up the stairs now!" He shouted as he let the wounded male up. "You, okay?" He asked.

"I'll live." He grunted as he clenched his wounded arm.

The other male nodded. "Hurry up, Rei!" He called to her

"Let me take care of this one first!" She shouted as she rushed towards the one that was following her up the stairs. "Hah!" She shouted as she thrusts the makeshift spear, but ended up missing the head and hit the chest instead.

"Idiot!" Takashi shouted as he reached behind his pants.

"But-" Rei turned just as the undead male grabbed the broomstick and moved it to the side, sending the teen to the wall and slamming her back against it. She coughed as the stick knocked the air out of her. She sank to the floor coughing as the male was about to bite into her. "NO~!"

"Rei!" Hisashi shouted and was about to intervene, but Takashi whipped out a rather large black throwing knife and threw it, hitting the zombie in the head and making him fall near the frightened girl.

She looked and saw the Takashi walking down the stairs. "I told you to always aim for the head." He reminded her as he pulled the blade out of the dead.

"Rei!" Hisashi yelled as he came down the stairs and help her up, using his good arm. "Are you okay?" He asked with concern.

"Hisashi." She said with a grateful tone and blushing face.

"Takashi's right. You have to hit them in the head to make them stop." He said as he helped her up. He then grunted as he saw a female undead stumbling towards them. He took a few steps and preformed a powerful push kick, hitting the undead in the chest and sending it tumbling down the stairs and the back of the head hitting a stone curb.

"Get up here fast!" Takashi called out to the two. "We're going to try and make a blockade or something." He said as the two passed him up the stairs. He took a glance at them as they went around the corner. He took a look at the surroundings. Everything he sees was nothing but the dead killing the living and those living coming back to life as the dead, repeating the cycle. "What the fuck is going here?" He gritted his teeth. 'And who the hell did this?' He thought. 'And why?' He added with narrowed eyes.

SEVERAL HOURS AGO

Takashi was leaning by the outside stairs leading to the second floor. He sighed as he looked out to the opening of the world.

"Why are you repeating a year?" He asked Rei as the stood in the school hallways, the grey tipped blackette had a worried expression on his face as he tried to consult his friend. "You're s straight A student." He pressed.

Rei looked to the side a she crossed her arms over her chest with a frown on her face. "You just won't understand, Takashi."

"Then explain the situation so I can understand." He pleads.

She simply huffed as she walked away.

"Rei!" The young male called out to the retreading female.

…

"Yo!" Hisashi greeted with a grin on his face. "Looks like we're in the same class, huh?"

"Let's try not getting in trouble this year, alright?" Takashi joked as he raised his fist.

"No promises, right?" The grey haired youth chuckled as he bumped his fist.

…

Takashi was walking around after coming from a small store and was standing by a stop light until he noticed two people.

Hisashi and Rei were laughing and smiling as they were holding hands. The two locked eyes and the girl looked away as if in shame.

…

"Pinky promise, huh?" He chortled softly as he leaned against the railing. "I should feed you a thousand needles." He muttered darkly.

"There you are, Bakashi…" A girl said. She has long pink hair which is kept in two pony tails on either side of her head. Her hair also has two thin, long bangs at the sides, two thin strands of hair over the left side of her forehead, and a spiky larger portion of hair covering the right side of her forehead. She has fierce orange eyes and furrowed eyebrows. Her physique is slender. Let us also note the visible pointed tooth in the right side of her mouth. She wears a female uniform like Rei, but her bust being an F-cup, along with a set of white school shoes. She also wore a set of red hooped earrings in her earlobe and a straight lined pierced through her left top auricle. "Skipping class again?" She looked down from her higher position as she standing by the stairs.

"Sa-chan." He gave a lazy wave at her.

"Calling me like that even when we're not kids anymore." She huffed. "Don't expect me to allow you to copy my notes when the tests come by." She grumbled as she stepped down the stairs, her large bust making some very noticeable bounces. "The semester just started. Keeping pulling that shit and you'll have to take after class lessons." She warned as she tapped his chest with her right index finger and leaned forwards slightly unintentionally showing some her cleavage and pink bra was in view of his eyes. "Or worse. You repeat the class." She added.

Takashi sighed as he gently tapped her forehead. "Looks who's talking. You're out here right now." He pointed out.

"Hmph!" She folded her arms below her bust. "I'm supposed to be in the bathroom." She mumbled.

"Lying to the teachers." He chuckled. "I should tell your parents about this."

"You wouldn't dare. I'll drag you down with me if I have to." She growled at him, her tooth shining threateningly.

The young male waved his hand in mock surrender. "Let's not bring our parents into this, especially your father." He chuckled at her narrowed eyes. "Fifth period hasn't ended yet. You still have time to wipe yourself before going back to class."

The pinkette huffed. "I don't know how you got in this school." She sighed.

"Good luck and high hopes." He joked getting a snort from the girl.

"I'll be going back. You have two minutes to reach back to class, Bakashi." She warned him before making her way back.

Takashi then waved at her before he stretched his arms. "That feels better." He sighed.

…

"So you like Takashi, huh?" Hisashi teased.

"No I don't!" She shouted as she blushed at the grey haired male. "I…I did have feelings for him like that." She looked down

"Just admit it already." The Hisashi sighed.

Rei groaned as she marched away. "You're taking me to the movies tomorrow! Just the two of us!"

Hisashi blinked as he looked to the closed classroom door. "You sure about this, buddy?"

Takashi remained silent. "Just make sure the both of you are happy." He sighed sadly.

…

"What the he'll was I thinking?" He wondered as he looked down and noted a group of people walking towards the school main gate.

"I swear I didn't do anything, Hayashi-sensei!" A female cried in annoyance as she is escorted by five teachers. "I bet you that bitch put those things in my bag, damn it!"

The female is a student around seventeen and has orange hair, but cut much shorter and she uses a hairband to keep her hair back. She also has a small pair of earrings in each ear. She like any female student wears her school uniform, her bust being a DD-cup, and wears a set of white shoes.

"Now, Miku-san. It's not nice to blame someone else without proof." The woman about her early thirties sighed as she was walking beside the short haired female. She has light brown eyes with glasses, reddish-brown hair which she keeps in a loose ponytail with long strands hanging down in front of each ear and a full figure. She wears a yellow V-cut shirt that shows a respectable amount of II-cup cleavage with a white jacket over it. She wears a brown skirt with brown stockings over her legs and low heeled cream shoes. "I know what you say might be truth, but all the of evidence points to you."

The orangette sighed. "Just call my mom. Leave my dad out of this." She muttered.

"Everything will be alright, Yuuki-san." A buffed man grumbled. He was wearing a white sleeveless shirt with blue jogging pants and looks about his late thirties.

"Hey, who's that?" Another male teacher asked. He was dressed in a white suit with a red tie and white shirt and pants with black shoes.

The group, plus Takashi, watch as a well-dressed man staggered to the front gate for few second before he continuously walked into it, his body hitting it again, and again, and again.

"Is that guy drunk or something?" The young man thought as he looked at the man.

"Please wait here a moment, Miku-san." The older woman requested as she walked towards the gate with a buffed man behind her. "Excuse me, sir. Can you please stop that?" She said with a professional tone, her voice causing the man to stop hitting against the gate and stare blankly at her direction. The woman actually finds it creepy on how the man was looking at her with his pale milk grey eyes. His skin was rather grey and pulsing with yellow vein like markings.

None could notice the large torn would at his back.

"Let me handle this, Hayashi-san." The man said with a small sigh as he walked to gate and gently patted the man's shoulder. "Listen buddy, we're all adults here, so let's-"

Without moment's wasted, the dressed man grabbed the bigger male's arm and bit his wrists, blood pouring from the wound like a fountain due to ripping through a main artery.

"Tekima-san!" The woman cried in shock as the other man, a slightly older balding male, ran to the screaming and wounded man.

"Get the student inside. We'll try and get him into the infirmary!" The man said as he and the other male tried restrain the screaming struggling male. "Stay still Yasuo! If you move around like that too much, you'll lose a lot more blood!"

Yuuki quickly grabbed the older woman's hand and pulled her away, whipping her phone out in the process with her other hand.

…

Takashi was looking at the scene with narrowed eyes. 'What is this feeling?' He thought. 'I sense something dark.' His phone rang and he pulled out. "Yuuki." He simply said as he watched the wounded man stop struggling and his movements came to a slow halt. 'He's dead…'

"Takashi. Something's not right." The orange haired girl said urgently on the other end of the line.

"I know." He said as he watched with wide eyes as the bigger male suddenly got up and bit the older man on the neck, pushing him unto the ground and began to rip it out like a mad dog. "What the fuck?" He muttered. "Yuuki. Get somewhere safe now!" He said. "I'll call you after I get the others. And try to get in contact with your parents now!"

"As you wish." The female nodded.

Takashi slipped his phone into his pocket as he ran to his class, passing several teachers along the way and not stopping. He pulled the sliding door open, shocking the rest of the class.

"Komuro! You skipped class and now you want to learn!" The teacher shouted at the teen.

Takashi simply ignored the man as he walked to Rei's desk. "We have to get out of here." He said in urgency as he looked to Hisashi, Saya and a healthy girl with glasses. "Some shit went down at the school gate and if we stay, it'll get a lot worst."

"Wha…" Rei didn't get the chance to say anything else as her childhood friend pulled her to stand. "T-Takashi!"

Saya shot up from her seat. "What's going on?"

Hisashi walked to his friend. "You're serious about this, aren't you?" He asked.

The male nodded. "I won't make shit up like this, Hisashi. Believe me. Some of the teachers are dead right now. But not for long." He added getting a raised eyebrow from the long haired female.

"What the hell is this all about?" Rei asked with a frown on her face.

"It's too dangerous to stay here as it is now." He said lowly as he waved another female to him. "Come on, Kohta. Get your things."

"B-But, Komura-san." Kohta is a healthy looking seventeen year old female. She has black hair that frames her shoulders and large G-cup bust. She has brown eyes and wears a set of black rectangular rimmed glasses. She also wears a female uniform, but wears the pants with the shirt.

"Now hold on a minute!" Rei shouted as she yanked her hands from the grey tipped blackette. "What the hell is this all about?!" She looked at her friend. "You think you can just barge in here and-"

Takashi flicked her forehead, cutting her sentence and causing her head to whip back a bit by the force he used. "I don't have time for shit like this, Rei." He narrowed his eyes. "So just shut up and listen."

"Attention all students!" A male's voice said through the speakers. "Violence has broken into the campus!"

"They reached this far already…" Takashi grunted with narrowed eyes.

"Students should evacuate according to the teachers' instructions. I repeat; Violence has broken into the campus-

CRASH!

"What…What are you doing?! No! Stay back! Stay back! GHUAAA!"

"A~h!" The announcer screamed in pain as the sound of flesh being torn of was heard. "Stop it! Stop it! Help! Help me!"

The sounds of growling was heard and everyone within campus were frozen by the sounds of violence, screaming, and tearing sounds of flesh.

…

A female student about eighteen was sitting in a seiza position with a shinai in her hand. She also wears a female uniform, but with the skirt leading down to her ankles and has D-cup breasts. She has long waist length purple hair and purple eyes, her hair forming a triangular fringe over her face nearing her nose. "Something interring is happening." She said with a small smile on her beautiful face. "I wonder where the captain is." She thought to herself as she tapped her chin with the shinai.

…

"Hu~?" A woman moaned slightly as she woke from her nap, using her rather large J-cup bust as a pillow. Not even noticing two other females running into her office.

…

Gro~ans…

Kohta shivered at the silence and nearly jumped out of her uniform as Saya placed her hands on her shoulders. "T-Takagi-san…" She whispered.

"We're going to have to move from here." The pinkette instructed as she began pull her classmate to the wall.

The teacher was standing with a chalk in his hand as he was writing down some notes for the students, he too being shocked at the violent news. His body trembled in fear as the chalk slipped from his hand, causing it hit the ground and break into pieces.

That seems to be the alarm that set the students in a frenzy. Many of them beginning to run in a panic. Students were being pushed, punched, or kicked out of the way or down the stairs. They were making a mad dash through the hallways, trampling over those that were unfortunate to fall.

The three friends looked about from the empty class room.

"Where's Saya and Kohta?" Takashi asked.

"They must have gotten dragged out by the students." Hisashi thought. "Let's go down that way." He pointed down the hall.

"We're not going to the entrance?" Rei asked her boyfriend.

"It'll be cramped by the time we even leave the floor." The grey tipped dark haired male sighed as he walked to a closet and opened it, pulling out a broomstick and twisting the end before snapping the head off. "Here." He said as he tossed it at his orange haired childhood friend. "You'll need it. Trust me." He said as he picked up a bat from inside.

"T-Thanks." Rei murmured.

"Rei, Takashi. Let's go. The hallways are cleared up." The silver haired teen said to them.

"Takashi, burrow me your phone." Rei asked.

The grey tipped blackette took out his phone and passed it to her, keeping an eye out as he looked about for more unwelcomed guesses.

"So how did this whole thing started anyway?" Hisashi asked his friend.

"Some guy was at the school gate. When the teachers went to handle the situation, one thing lead to another, one of them died from a massive amount of blood loss and then he got up and attacked another teacher, Yuuki and Hayashi-sensei should be at the infirmary by now." He said

"And we're supposed to believe that!" Rei said in frustration as she got another dial tone from the receiver. "Dad's not picking up."

"The line must be dead." Takashi let his thought be known.

"Let me try one more time." She begged as she dialed the number again. The dial went on and she got an answer.

"Hello?!" A male voice said in urgent. "Takashi, is that you?! Is Rei with you!?"

"Dad, it's me!" Rei said.

"Listen, Takashi! Keep an eye on Rei. I don't like how this is going down, but make sure you two are safe!"

"D-Dad!" The orange haired teen shouted before the line went dead.

"We're sorry, but all emergency lines are all occupied." A female voice said from the other end of the call. "Please wait a moment and we'll get right back to you."

"He didn't answer." She shook her head. "He was so distraught that he didn't even asked for me due to using your phone, Takashi." Rei whispered as tears began to flow down her cheek.

"Well that's shit." He sighed as they walked to one of the outside bridges that connected the school building to another.

"Hold it." Hisashi halted the two, seeing someone limping unto the crossing.

The person was male with pale dead greying and yellow veined skin. He wears a white shirt with a red sleeveless vest over it and a set of grey pants. He also wears a set of black sandals. His hair is grey and slicked back.

"Is that Wakisaka-sensei." Rei said, and was about to go and get the man's attention, but Hisashi stopped her. "Hisashi?" She questioned.

"Look at his leg." The young Komuro nodded to the man's left leg and the three noted the large chunk bitten off at his ankle. "That explains why he was limping. He got bitten."

"Let me take care of him." Rei said. "I have a longer reach."

"You sure?" Takashi asked her orange haired childhood friend.

"Who do you think I am?" She questioned as the dead man shambled towards her, his arms stretched out. She quickly moved. "Sorry, Wakisaka-sensei." She said as the man reached the grab her. She moved back, taking one step back and thrusts the butt of her weapon, striking the head and pushing him back a few steps. She then rushed in and slammed the side of the arm before thrusting again, hitting the chest as she twirled the spear and strike the heart with a powerful thrust.

"Not bad." Takashi smiled.

Rei sighed as she was about to pull the spear out of the man's chest, but the hands suddenly shot up and grabbed the weapon. She gasps the teacher moved to the side, slamming her with her weapon against the railing. She quickly kicked him away, pulling her spear back as she looked at the undead male with shock. "What the hell?" She gasps. "I pierced his heart!" She shouted as she her eyes were wide.

"I have a thought." Hisashi said to his male friend before he rushed at the undead man.

"Hisashi!" Takashi shouted, gaining Rei's attention as the undead male looked to his direction.

Hisashi quickly ducked under the grey skinned man outstretched arms and wrapped his arms around the man's stomach from behind. With a grunt he hefted the man back, preforming a German suplex, snapping the man's neck as he hit the ground with a hard thud. Hisashi rolled back and stood up, sighing in relief at the fact that the dead man stayed dead this time.

"I didn't think I would have been able to pull it off." He chuckled nervously.

Rei ran and hugged her boyfriend planting a kiss on his cheek and was smiling at him.

Takashi simply walked up to his friend and smacked him over the head.

"What the hell, Takashi!?" Rei shouted at her childhood friend. "Jealous that I gave him a kiss?!"

"What if he had bitten you, Hisashi." Takashi ignored his friend.

The silver haired youth sighed. "I was prepared for that." He muttered.

"No you weren't." Takashi grounded out. "Don't pull a stunt like that again." He said as he walked ahead of them. "Rei would be sad, right." He muttered more to himself, but Hisashi heard him.

"Don't worry. I'm glad you did that." Rei smiled.

"We're going to a roof." The grey tipped black haired teen said. "We'll hide up there until help reaches. And since the phones are cut off, we can't get in contact with Saya or Miku." She sighed.

"You know that slut." Rei muttered, but Takashi didn't hear her.

"I'm going to let that slide, Rei." Takashi said as he looked to her.

Okay maybe he did.

…

The three stood at the edge of a roof. Looking over their town as they can hear nothing but screaming, sirens, and explosions.

Rei covered her mouth as she stared at the destruction. "What is this?" She gasps. "Everything was normal until this morning."

Suddenly a heavy wind blow by, pushing the students forward a bit. They looked up to see several helicopters flying over them and unto the city below.

"Those are Blackhawks…" Hisashi frowned at the sight of the military vehicles.

"Must be the JDF." Takashi muttered. "They wouldn't come out here unless they have a reason to."

"He~lp! Save u~s!" Rei shouted as she waved her arms.

"No use." Hisashi shook his head to his girlfriend. "They have better things to do than to come down here for a bunch of students."

"Hisashi" Rei looked to the silver haired teen.

"They're probably on a special mission. They don't have time to save us. Not even a moment will be used to deal with this mess here." He said motioning to three students who were shouting at a small group of undead to go away. "We could try and escape, but it'll be a total mess."

"I'm wondering what's going on inside the school." Takeshi said, worried for his other friends inside the building.

HOTDA

"Kya!" A female student about seventeen shouted as she tripped. She has long dark blue hair that was tied in a thin braid and two chin length bangs framing her face. She has yellow brown eyes and her bust is a most a D-cup. "Don't come here!" She cried as female undead was nearing her.

"Get away from my friend!" Another female shouted as she swung a piece of wood, hitting the undead female in the face and sending her to a wall. This girl is also about seventeen. She has maroon hair that was held in a cloth bun with her face being framed with chest length bangs. She has honey gold eyes and was also wearing a female uniform. Her bust being at least an A-cup.

"Misuzu!" The other girl cried out as her friend pulled up to stand. "Thank you."

"What are best friends for?" The now known Misuzu smiled. "We'll be okay as long as we have each other, Toshimi." The other teen smiled.

"I hope Komuro-kun is okay." The dark haired female prayed.

"I'm sure he's fine." The maroon haired female said as she tapped her weapon.

"Misuzu-chan, behind you!" Toshimi warned her friend.

The maroon haired girl turned just in time as another undead tried to bite her, this one being a male teacher. She raised the wood up just as the dead man was about to bite her flesh. She grunted as the man was heavier and the two fell on the ground, Misuzu still holding the piece of wood as the undead male was gnawing on it. "Run, Toshimi!" She told her friend. "I'll hold him off! I'll catch up to you." She grunted. She watched as the dark bluenette walked backwards shaking her head. "G~O!" She shouted spurring her friend to run. She gave a small smile at her friend's retreading back. "Looks like you'll be able to confess to him." She said more to herself as she felt her strength waning.

"A~h!" Toshimi shouted as she ran back, shocking her friend. "Leave her alone!" The bustier girl shouted as she kicked the undead man in the face with enough force to get him off her friend and send him rolling several feet. "I…I did it."

"Toshimi." Misuzu breathed at her friend before she was hugged by the crying teen.

"I…I couldn't leave you behind!" She cried into her friend's chest. "You're my best friend, Misuzu-chan! We promised to confess to Komuro-kun together!"

Misuzu ignored her shirt getting wet in favor of calming her friend. "You're right." She said as she gently lifted herself and pulled her friend behind her as a small group of undead began to approach them. "But I guess only one of us will get through with that." She muttered as she held her weapon.

"Do not lose fate!" A female voice shouted as a form landed before them, a thin flash of light passes three of the undead and their heads were severed from the necks. "My God is here, walking among us in mortal flesh!" She said as she swung her weapon once again, cutting through four more and severing theirs limbs, torso, and various body parts on the ground. "My God has blessed me with his mercy, saving this body and giving me life anew." She then cut through the rest of them, a macabre of gore and blood following her wake. She then turned to the other female and she swung her weapon to the side and splattering the blood off to reveal that she was wielding katana with a wooden handle. She then sheathed it showing that it was a boken in disguise.

This female is about eighteen and has long straight black hair that leads to her knees like a waterfall; a hime cut style and a white ribbon over her head. Her skin is tanned brown and she has amber eyes. Like Toshimi and Misuzu, she also wears a female uniform with the dress reaching her ankles and her bust being a whopping GG-cup. She wears a set of black shoes.

"Anai-sempai?" The two chorused.

"Toshimi, Misuzu." The tanned skinned female smiled at the two. "Glad you're safe." She nodded at them. "Let's go."

HOTDA

The purple haired female was calmly walking down the stairs, shinai held firmly in her left hand as well as some blood splotches on her clothes from her stomach down. She noted a undead lumbering up the stairs. Moments later a flash of light went down the undead body of the revealed student, cutting him down in half and spilling his innards. The purplelette then continued down her path, her shoes not even slipping as she stepped on the puddle of blood.

'My blood is pumping.' She mentally moaned as she subtly licked her lips.

HOTDA

A female teen tripped and crashed through the window of a door, frightening a fat teacher as he leaped back in fright as the girl was being attacked and chewed on by a small numbers of the undead.

"They're here too?" He muttered in a shuddered tone, not even realizing a student running passed him. He then began to chuckle softly. "This has to be a dream. My little girl cooked up something rather weird anyways." He convinced himself as an undead male was chewing on the remains of a person. "This is all a dre~am." He droned on. "More like a nightmare." He went to an open window, looking at the sky, he placed his feet on the windowsill. "I have to wake up. Those kids got a PE test today and I'm sure they're pumped up for it." He then placed both his feet on the sill as he was prepared to jump. "Then I'll treat 'em to some food and drink." He smiled. "Yeah…They would like that a lot." He said softly as he threw himself head first, his body making a mess on the concrete ground three floors below.

HOTD

"It's them." The young Komuro sighed as he stood up, having leaning against the railing for the time being.

"Them?" Hisashi looked to his friend as he went to lean against the corner of a wall.

"They infect you with some kind of disease." He narrowed his eyes. "We're being attacked by corpses, but this is no game or movie. That's why I'll call them 'Them'." He explained.

"Like we saw, they bite people, maybe eating them in the process." Hisashi murmured as his eyes widened. "Wakisaka-sensei." He suddenly blurted. "He was bitten too. And came back like one of them…" He frowned.

"The only we beat them is good hard hit to the head." The grey tipped blackette said as he tapped his head.

"Then what do we do- Whoa!" Hisashi asked, but slipped off the corner, falling on the ground just as an undead was limping about. "Shit!" He grunted as the undead fell on him, biting his left bicep hard and drawing blood. "Gaaa~ah!"

"Hisashi!" Rei shouted as she went to help her boyfriend, spearing the undead in the head through the ears.

Takashi helped his friend up, wrapping a white cloth around the wound. "Shit!" The male cursed as he sees the blood. "We have to move now!" He said as he got up and quickly slugged an undead male in the head, sending him over the railing and splatting the ground below. "Let's go up there." He motioned to the small area above a flight of stairs. "We can barricade it."

HOTDA

Rei sighed as she looked to sky, the sun still high.

Hisashi was in a coughing fit, blood spilling from his mouth at uncounted intervals. "This isn't good." He groaned as he rested by the wall, stacks of wooden desks with chairs and a goof amount of duck-tape, keeping 'Them' away from them.

"Why is this happening?" Rei cried silently as she leaned against Hisashi's good arm. "There has to be a reason for this."

"Even we do figure the reason, what can we do?" Takashi asked his friend.

"Let's look for something for a light in the observatory." Hisashi breathed, his skin having gained sickly color over the time that he been bitten. "If we're not able to make fire at night, it'll be hard to-" His sentence was cut off as he went into a coughing fit, covering his mouth as some blood spill on the ground.

"Hisashi!" Rei yelled in concern as she held her boyfriend. "Just hang on! We'll figure something out!" She looked to her friend. "Takashi! Hisashi's…"

Takashi was leaning against the wall, his bangs shadowing his eyes.

Hisashi's coughing fit ended and he leaned against the railing, taking deep gasping breathes. "This…isn't looking good." He said in a shallow tone.

"But the bite was only les than an hour ago…" Rei choked. "How can your condition get so bad?"

"It's like…in the…movies." The pale haired teen gasps. "There's no (cough, cough, cough) stopping it…after you get bitten."

"There's no way that can happen!" Rei yelled in denial. "This isn't a movie!"

"It's just like the others." Takashi said, getting his childhood friend's attention. "He was bitten and he going to turn into one of them." He muttered.

"Hey, Taka." Hisashi called his classmate as he raised his hand. "If I…fall from there…" He pointed at a railing a few feet from them. "The fall…will most likely…crush my head…"

Takashi raised his face to look at his friend, Rei's eyes widening at what her boyfriend was implying. "Hisashi no." She shook her head. "I'm sure we can-"

"I DON'T WANT TO DIE LIKE THIS!" He yelled, gasping for air before he suddenly puking a lot of blood before him and broke into a fit of coughs and heaves.

"Hisashi!" The orange haired teen shouted as she rubbed his back. "Please!"

"Takashi…" The teen whispered as he looked at him, his eyes showing that he accepted his fate. "I want to die as myself." He gave a weak smile. "Can you do me that favor, buddy?"

Takashi simply placed the bat down and pulled out his knife. "I'll make it quick." He muttered mournfully.

"Wait." Rei looked between the two before she got up and tried to stop her friend. "What are you doing, Takashi?" She asked as she tried to stop the teen.

"Doing my friend a favor." He murmured as he attempted to move Rei out of the way.

"You can't!" She shook her head. "You can't do that!"

"Rei…let him." Hisashi went through another coughing fit. His body wracking with pain as he fell on the ground. He then screamed as he clenched his hand over his chest writhing in pain as he struggled.

"Hisashi!" Rei shouted to her pained boyfriend as she still try to hold her friend back. "You can't die!"

"Takashi." He grunted in pain. "T-Take care of…Rei." Hisashi's struggling came to a slow end, his body unmoving as he sighed and remained silent.

"Hisashi?" Rei muttered to the unmoving male.

"Rei get back." Takashi said as he saw the male's finger's twitched, noticing the yellow veins stretching across the males face and neck.

"No!" She cried. "Hisashi won't turn like the others! He's different! He's special!"

"He's dead." Takashi's words cut through his childhood friend. He looked up to see the undead friend slowly moved to sit up, his legs lifting him to stand. "But this is the only way he can be at peace." He said as he pulled the stunned Rei behind him, the girl having seeing the revival of the grey haired youth. "I'm sorry, Rei." He said as he walked to the groaning teen. "I hate this." He muttered.

"Takashi." Rei whispered.

"I fucking hate this." He gripped the handle of his knife.

The undead Hisashi let a gasping moan as he shambled towards the two, his milk grey eyes looking at them as the veins pulsed.

"But I hate the choice I'm going to make the most." He gritted his teeth as tears welled in his eyes. "I'm sorry, Hisashi. You've been a damn good friend over the years." He said before he rushed at the male, swinging his knife and cutting his head off with a single swipe.

"N~O!" Rei shouted in despair at the scene before her.

HOTDA

"Hm?" Yuuki looked to the side after wiping Hayashi's head with cloth. "Takashi."

"This isn't good." A male teen muttered in fear as he held a chair. "Those things are getting through the door. The teen wearing a male uniform and was rather tall and lanky and wears black framed rectangular glasses. He has dark brown eyes and his black hair was in bowl cut form. "Marikawa-sensei, please hurry!"

"I'm trying to move as fast as I can." She mumbled in a dazed tone as she walked around the room, gathering medical appliances as her large busts bounced about in her movements.

"Ah! They're getting through!" The teen replied as he ran and smashed one of Them in the head with the chair, pushing it back from the broken window in the door. "Is Hayashi-sensei up yet?" He asked.

"No." Yuuki frowned. The woman had fainted after hearing the news and the mayhem that followed it. The sight of the students being cannibalistic was too much for the older woman. "I hope she wakes up soon. I don't want to leave her here." She sighed.

HOTDA

Takashi looked over the horizon as he mourned for his friend, Hisashi's body covered by a white sheet he found in the room.

"Why…?" Rei muttered as she was sitting by the corpse. "Why did you do it?"

"It was either him or us, Rei." He answered her. "I had a choice. And I made it. You would've been bitten if you were close to him." He pointed out.

"I didn't want you to save me." She looked at the body with her eyes shadowed by her hair. "I didn't want to see him like this!" She shouted. "I would've rather be bitten by him than to live a life like this!"

Takashi looked to orange haired teen. "He wouldn't want that." He stated. "I also made a promise that I would look after you."

"Fuck your promise! What about me, huh?!" She shouted. "What the fuck do you know?!" A small giggle passed her lips. "That's it, isn't it?" She looked at him, her eyes glazed. "You hated him, didn't you?!" She accused him as she leaned on her hands. "You wanted him dead the most! I bet you were fucking jealous all those time you saw us together holding hands and what not. I bet you wished you were the one fucking me and not him! Wish you would've' popped my cherry and not him, right?!" She shouted. "I wonder if that's why you went to Miku." She laughed.

Takashi frowned.

"Bet she opened her legs for you like any of the others guys in the school, right?" She glared at him.

"I don't have time for this." He muttered as he turned to the barricade they made earlier.

"Where are you going?" Rei asked, her tone taking a different tone.

"I'm going to try and meet up some of the other survivors out there." He answered as he began to cut through the tape. "You can follow if you want or stay there where it's safe and blaming me for saving your life. I'll even take some steam off of those dead beats while I'm out there before actually going." He added.

"W-What?" Without realizing it, Rei's moved on her own. "You can't do that by yourself!" She stopped by him, but she was being ignored. "Hey, Takashi…" She whispered, tears trickling from her eyes. "They're going to kill…you."

The grey tipped black haired teen then climbed up.

"NO! Stop!" She cried as she ran to him and grabbed his left arm. "Please! Don't go!" She shouted as she tried to pull him down. "I'm sorry! I wasn't thinking! I was so fucking angry that I didn't really know what I was saying! I really didn't mean it! Please. Don't leave me!" She cried out as tears run down her cheeks, looking at her childhood friend with regret.

Takashi sighed as he came down and gently flicked her forehead. Ignoring her protest action, he pulled her into a hug. "We'll wait until you calm down. Then we'll look for the others." He said as he rubbed her back. "Just let it all out, Rei-chan." He told her. "Let it all out." He soothed.

Rei's shoulder began to shake before she broke down and cried into her childhood friend's shoulders, tears streaming down her face as she hugged him tight.

On that day everything went down to shit. I killed my best friend. I vowed to protect one of my childhood friends. Of course…I'm going to do my best to protect everyone I can with my powers.

HOTDA

"No! Get away! AAA~~H" A male screamed before he was swarmed by the undead.

"Get away from me! Please!" A female shouted.

Saya was looking out from an empty classroom, Kohta by her side who was shivering like a leaf. "This is bullshit." The pinkette muttered as she saw a small group of students running down the hall. "Humans eating other humans. Is this some kind if horror movie or something?" She looked ahead to see a teen male walking ahead.

"This is joke, right?" A teen spoke on a lost tone as he held his bleeding neck, his feet staggering as he walked about. "This is bad dream, right? Right?" His face was suddenly clutched by a grey hand before he was pushed down by a male undead, his creams brining more to his doom.

"Let's go, Kohta." Saya motioned for her friend to follow.

"H-Hai…" The healthy female muttered as she followed the pinkette, turning her eyes away from her schoolmate being eaten. "Where are we going, Takagi-san?" She asked.

"Somewhere safe." She answered.

"We can go to the staffroom." The spectacle girl suggested.

"Bad idea." She shut the idea down as she looked around a corridor. "Besides. What the hell do you expect the teachers to do in this situation?" She said before she went ahead unto connecting bridge.

"But, Takagi-san. Uhm. You see." She followed her and stopped at a body. "Takagi-san. It's Wakisaka-sensei." She pointed at the body with trembling finger.

Saya frowned as she inspected the body. "Well he's definitely dead. His neck seems to be broken; obviously he was slammed on the head." She hummed as she heard the sounds of doors being banged on, gaining the attention of both females. "See." She nodded at a group of students banging against a faculty door. "Those guys had your idea too."

"Sensei! Sensei!" A student shouted as others were behind him. Without even a hint of warning or preparation, the door bursts open showing that the staff were infected.

None of the students made it.

Kohta shudder at the carnage before her.

"Kohta." Saya called her classmate. "Do you want to live or die?"

"I…I…" She stuttered before she shook her head and clenched her fists over her chest. "I…want to live."

Saya grinned. "I want to live too. Let's go. We have to try and find some more survivors." She said as she ran ahead, Kohta following her. 'You better be alive, Bakashi.' She hoped to her childhood friend.

HOTDA

Takashi looked up and sighed.

Rei looked at the male, her eyes averting from the covered body of the dead Hisashi. "What's wrong?"

"I want to find out how this whole shit went down." He said as he stood up, ignoring the undead horde on the other side of the barricade they made.

"That's pretty blunt." She muttered.

"I don't need to lie." He simply shrugged and scratched his head. He then looked to see a fire hose and grinned. "I have an idea."

HOTDA

"Do you think we can call the cops?" Kohta asked the pinkette as she looked around corner before looking back to her.

Saya shook her head. "I don't think that'll be possible." She frowned. "Considering how chaotic this place has been going, I doubt that the police would be able to handle a situation like this. I haven't even heard any siren for that matter."

The browned haired female nodded, seeing logic to that. "So the whole city's in an uproar." She frowned.

"More than likely." Saya agreed. "Police has been dispatched already, but this place is still hell on earth. And I doubt the JDF would be of any help either." She looked around and noted the lack of any human movement. "Let's say that people all over Japan are eating each other. What do you think is going on?"

"There's about…one hundred and thirty million people in japan." Kohta muttered to herself. "Maybe from the JDF could be pulled into this." She then looked at the pinkette. "But…" She hesitated. "What if members of the JDF are infected too?" She asked more to herself.

Saya smiled. "And that's why we have brains." She then looked up the stairs and noted one of Them limping down. "We have to move now." She said as she ran ahead, the healthy girl right behind her. 'Damn!' She thought. 'Stuck in this shit while Bakashi is out there somewhere. Damn those idiots for causing a riot before Kohta and I could've reached them! What a drag!'

HOTDA

"Okada?" The male teen muttered as his friend rose to sit, the bloodied towel falling from the face to show a grey yellow veined skinned face with eyes rolled back with his mouth gaping. "Okada?" He dropped the mop stick he had and reached out for the IV staff and knocked the undead teen to the ground. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" He repeated with every hit unto the undead male.

The blonde hummed as she walked about the small room going through her mental check list of what she forgot. "What did I miss?" She said as she went to the cabinet and reached in to take few bottles of prescriptions.

"I can't get a hold of the police or the fire apartment." Yuuki sighed as she placed her phone away.

"Hm?" The red haired woman groaned as she began to wake up.

"Took you long enough." The orange haired teen grinned at the woman that was regaining her bearings.

"What? What happened?" She asked as she was helped to sit up.

"A lot of shit." Yuuki replied as she handed the woman a cup of water.

"Thank you, Miku-san." The woman ignored the curse and thanked the student before drinking the water.

"I could treat people." The blonde woman muttered.

"But they're screwed once they get bitten." The orange haired teen added as she took the empty cup back and placed it away.

"Hayashi-sensei." The male spoke as he approached the females. "It's good that you're okay."

"I feel like I'm in those movies those weirdos like." The blonde woman sighed.

"It's not really that good to compare this to a movie, Shizuka-sensei." Yuuki said as she stood up. "What we need to do is try to get out of here." She then looked to the older seated woman. "Can you stand?" She asked.

The woman fixed her glasses before standing off the bed and nodding. "How can we leave? We're surrounded from what I can see." The woman frowned in worry at several of the undead that were hitting against the windows of the infirmary room. "Marikawa-san. We have to leave now please." She urged the woman.

"Hold on a sec." The woman hummed as she reached up to get the duffel bag that she needed. "I need something to carry these things."

"Please hurry." The male teen urged.

PA~SH!

The group watched as the horde broke through the windows and glasses and swarmed inside.

Yuuki took the chair that she was sitting on and tossed it at the undead female that was lumbering towards her and the older woman, hitting her square on the head and knocking her down.

"Nice throw." Hayashi praised.

"Yeah. When you have a bunch of idiot boys trying to throw 'their moves' on you, you develop a good swinging arm." She commented with a small grin.

The male teen stood before the blonde woman and managed to hit one back before being bitten on his neck by a male undead. "R-Run! Get away from here now!" He shouted as two more came on him, biting around his shoulder and arm.

"Oh. Uhm. What's your name again?" She asked.

"Wha-What?!" The teen shouted in pain and shock as he was not expecting that from the blonde haired woman.

The blonde woman then noticed one of the undead was coming to her and took a step back. "Hey now. Let's not get physical here." She muttered before she 'eeped' just before the undead's head was struck hard by a shinai. "Eh?"

The purple haired female turned fluently, smashing the neck of the second dead. She then whirled around and slammed the weapon down on the third one's head caving in the skull. She then moved forward with a quick step and slammed the fourth undead hard enough to crack the skull and sink it between the shoulders. She was about to turn to deal with the fifth one, but a chair was thrown smashing its head and knocking it to the ground.

"Thank you." She said looking to the direction to see Yuuki was the one that threw the furniture.

"No problem." The orange haired female panted.

The shinai wielder made her way to the wounded male, the teen being settled against the wall with help of the two teachers. She kneeled to his level and placed a hand on his right shoulder. "My name, Busujima Saeko, vice-captain of the kendo club." She introduced herself. "What is your name young kouhai?" She asked with a soft tone.

The teen was shivering due to the blood loss and coughed out some of the life fluid. "I-I-I…chii…K…Kazu." He introduced himself.

Saeko gave a small smile. "You did well protecting the ladies, Ichii-san." She praised. "It is nothing short of praiseworthy."

"Any…one." He swallowed a bile of blood. "Would do…do the same…" He breathed.

The purplelette nodded. "You do know what happens when you are bitten, correct?" She stated, earning a nod from the male. "Do you wish for your friends and family to see you like them?" She asked and motioned her head to one of the unmoving dead.

"N-No." He said weakly. "I would…like at least…die…as a…human." He said.

"Then let me end it for you." Saeko said. "It will be one of mercy. If that is what you wish?" She requested.

Kazu looked at the kendo girl and smiled weakly. "I would…like that. T-Thank...you."

Saeko nodded as she stood up and held her shinai at the ready.

"Now wait a moment, Busujima-san." The redheaded teacher began, but Yuuki stopped her.

"It's already too late for him, Hayashi-sensei." The orange haired teen said with a shake of her head. "Marikawa-sensei, please don't interfere either."

"But." The blonde nurse began.

"I know that you are teachers and must see to the safety of the students, but this is his request." Saeko said looking at both the teachers. She then raised the weapon. "It is one of our duties as women to protect a man's pride."

Kazu had a small smile on his face as his body relaxes, the yellow veins slowly creeping through his skin.

Hayashi looked away as the teen's head was hit hard enough to expel a lot of blood and brain matter.

Shizuka had her hands over her mouth to stifle the gasps.

CRASH!

The group of females looked to the side to see several undead enter the infirmary.

"Will you be of assistance to me, Yuuki-san?" Saeko requested.

"Can't have you do all the work." The orange haired teen stated as he picked up the staff that Kazu used earlier.

Saeko looked as the undead group approached them, a small smile creeping on her face.

HOTDA

"Takagi-san, in here." Kohta motioned the pinkette into a room and closed the door.

The pinkette sighed as she was able to catch her breath. "We're safe for now." She huffed as she stood straight. She then looked around the room. "Looks like were in the technician arts room." She nodded. She then locked the door and instantly began to take out the tools and put them on the teacher's desk. "We're going to need some weapons." She mumbled. "You know a lot about guns, right?" She asked the classmate who nodded. "Have you seen any movies or played any games that involved making a gun out these things?"

"I played 'Dead Rising'." Kohta replied as she looked around the tools and picked one up. "A nail gun?" She wondered. "And it's gas powered." She smiled. "Do you like movies, Takasgi-san?" She wondered as she looked around the room.

"I like action, comedy, romance, horror, and sci-fi. I guess I should take horror from the list now though." She answered a she saw a five feet steel rod and picked it up along with a drill machine, which was also battery powered. "This could work." She muttered as she looked around and saw some ropes and wires. "This could work very nicely." She grinned.

"Got any plans with those?" Kohta asked.

"Of course." Saya puffed out her chest, her bust bouncing by the movement. "I'm a genius after all." She gloated.

Bang!

The two girls gasps as they saw several off Them outside of the room, their bloodied hands hitting against the tainted window of the door.

"We have an extra gas canister and nails in here." Kohta said as she searched a box. "There's another battery pack you can use for the drill there." She added.

"Good." Saya nodded as she tied the wires around the trigger button of the drill after taping it to the metal rod. "I'm going to need that." She said.

"I'll hold on to them since I'm wearing pants." The healthy girl said as she held the nail gun up as if aiming. "This should weight about nine pounds, almost on par with an old assault rifle. But my stance will be messed up." She muttered as she gripped the handle. "I'm going to need a sight and support."

"Here." Saya said as she tossed a laser at her. "You can use that." She stated as she tied a small piece of leather around the rod and pulled it, pulling the wire around the drill and started it up. "Nice." She grinned. "How's it going on your end?" She asked.

"Good." Kohta looked to see some wooden planks on the side and grinned rather darkly. "Almost done."

'She's gone gun-mode now.' The pinkette thought and gasps as she heard the door being banged. "Kohta make it quick." She said as she held her made weapon at the ready, her thumb over the stick to turn on the drill.

The glasses wearing female worked as fast as she can, instinct pushing her body. She saw several pieces of wood, slice some erasers, and used some tape.

Just then, the door was busted down and Saya instantly ram the drill spear into one of their mouth, boring out the back of the skull as blood splattered about. Ignoring the blood she was late in noticing another one of the undead nearing her. Before she has the time to scream it was nailed in the head by…well…a nail.

"Gotcha!" Kohta smiled as she held her own personal improved nail gun. The pieces of wood were used to stable the power tool and the laser taped over the top for sight. "You okay, Takagi-san?" She asked as she shot another nail, hitting the head of another undead.

"Doing fine!" She yelled as she rammed another undead with her drill spear. "We have to go now!"

Two more undeads were shot down as Saya stabbed another one in the neck.

"I'll try get some more nails for you. Think you can hold them back?" Saya asked.

Kohta simply nodded. "Of course."

…

"Ha!" Toshimi shouted as she slammed her wooden stick against an undead.

"Kya!" Misuzu yelled as she kicked a ball at an undead that was behind her friend.

"This is getting annoying?" Miu muttered with a frown as she cut down another dead male. "We need to try and get some more people." The tanned girl stated.

…

"Ready?" Takashi asked he stood before the barricade, a long fire hose held in his hand that was extended from over the observatory.

"I'm good!" Rei answered as she was ready to turn the large key.

"Now!" He shouted as some of the undead broke through, struggling to pry themselves. The hose pushed him back a bit as the water bursts out if the hose. "How about a little shower!" He yelled as he aimed the high pressured water towards the barricade, knocking it down and the undead behind them to the bottom of the stairs.

"Yes!" Rei cheered.

…

"Got everything?" Saya asked as she held a bag, Kohta holding one too.

"Hn." The brunette nodded.

"Good." Saya said as she walked towards the end of the class.

"Uhm, Takagi-san." Kohta called the pinkette, getting her attention. "Thank you for being my friend."

"No problem." The young woman smiled.

"Alright." She grinned as she reloaded a new clip. "Let's try get together with Takashi-kun and the others."

"O~h. So it's Takashi-kun, huh?" The pinkette teased.

"Takagi-san." The brunette blushed, getting a small bout of laughter from the pinkette.

"I'm sure he's okay." She assured. "Behind you!" She yelled.

Kohta instant turned and aimed, firing a nail at an undead teacher that was lumbering towards them, her body crumpled to the ground. "Thanks."

…

"Damn." Takashi whistled as he looked about the undead they killed with a fire hose. "Nice idea with the hose." He complimented Rei as she walked to him.

"Of course." She huffed with a smile. "You think I forget about these kind of things? Remember you and Hisashi used to-" She stopped mid-sentence she looked down.

"I'll be sure to remember that so that he doesn't come back and smack me over the head." He said with a soft smile.

"He might bite you instead." Rei attempted to make a small joke, both friends smiling at each other.

"It'll be a tough road ahead of us after we find the others." Takashi said as he turned to the orangette. "You ready?"

Rei stepped a bit forward and handed him the baseball bat, her fingers brushing against his own as he went to grab it. She quickly moved her hand away, her cheeks staining with a pink hue and was wondering where this feeling came from.

"Let's go." Takashi said as he pulled out the knife and made his way down the stairs, Rei behind him.

…

The two were making their way down the stairs inside the school building, blood splattered on their clothes due to the amount of undead they faced.

"Did you get to call your house?" Rei asked.

Takashi shook his head. "The phone line's dead. And I don't think they would be able to get to me with this shit going down. I'm worried about mom since she works at an elementary school." He sighed. "Plus dad's busy with some business, so tough luck on that."

"I bet their mouths wouldn't keep shut about you." Rei smiled.

"True." He chuckled as he walked down the stairs. 'In reality this is really hell on earth.' He thought with a mental frown. 'Someone is fucking around with the dead and when I get my hands on the asshole or group that did this.' He mentally growled as unknown to the orangette his eyes flashed red for a moment. 'Calm down Takashi.' He told himself. 'You'll get them for this.' He vowed.

HOTDA

An undead male was lumbering through the corridor, a piece of wet cloth hitting his head, but was not deterred.

"What are you doing, Takagi-san?" Kohta asked she looked around.

Saya was by a face basin and had a second cloth in the water. "I'm testing something out." She answered as she threw the second wet cloth and it hit the locker with resounding 'thud', the ghoul stopped and walked right into the locker, gnawing and attempting to grab it. "So that's how they work." She muttered as she turned to the brunette. "He didn't react at all when the rag hit him." She told the healthy girl. "That means they don't feel anything, let alone pain."

"But he's walking into the locker." Kohta pointed out. "He's not even moving away from it. Almost as if…" Her eyes widen.

"He's blind." Saya smiled, reaching the same conclusion as the young woman. "So that would only leave sound."

"We'll have to test that out as well." She said turning the brunette and gasps. "Hirano. Behind you." She warned.

The brunette quickly turned and shot few of the undead that were coming towards them. "Get behind me, Takagi-san." She said as shot another one between the eyes.

"We have to move before they swarm on us." Saya said as she pulled the female.

Kohta nodded and went to follow her friend.

…

"Gro~ans…" An undead male stretched his arm out and was promptly pushed aside by a shinai to the head, causing it to stumble and hit the lockers rather hard.

Yuuki was beside the kendoist and used the staff she had to push a female undead to the side, the walking corpse stumbling and falling out of the window.

"Why not get rid of them if they get to close?" The blonde woman asked as Yuuki tripped one over with her foot.

"I would like to think that is a good idea." Hayashi wondered, stepping over a legless undead.

"If we do, they will converge on and we'll and up like them." Saeko replied.

"And you want us to go to the staff room?" Yuuki wondered.

"But everyone keeps their keys there." The blonde woman defended as she held her duffle bag.

Hayashi sighed as the kendoist pushed another undead to the side, the back hitting against the window and four continued their walk.

"It'll be a problem if they get a hold of you." Yuuki warned the glasses wearing teaches as she pulled the older woman away from an undead teacher that was grasping around.

"T-Thank you, Miku-san." The woman sighed in gratitude.

"Yuuki is okay." The orangette said.

"Wah!"

The three other females watch to see Shizuka rubbing her butt as she had fallen, tripping over an upturned carpet.

"O~w." She whined. "That wasn't nice at all." She pouted.

Saeko sighed. "Such fashion is unsuitable in this situation." The younger female said as she gripped the seamed end of the dress and pulled, ripping it up to the woman's hips and revealing the line of her purple risqué panties.

"O~h. This is a brand new skirt." She complained.

"Marikawa-san please." The other woman sighed as she reach to her skirt and did the same thing by ripping at the seams up to her hips, revealing her red line of her underwear. "These skirts would get us killed if not." She explained.

"What's more important?" Yuuki asked the blonde woman. "You clothing or your life." She raised an eyebrow.

The blonde woman trembled a bit, her lips set in a pout before she gave an answer. "Both!" She declared raising her arms, getting a sweatdrop deadpanned looks from the three other females.

Crash!

"What was that?" The redheaded woman asked. "Was that from the staff room?"

…

Kohta was shooting of one undead at a time. "I'm running low." She said as she picked off another one.

"Fuck." Saya grunted as she sees more coming. "We won't be able to find more traits at this rate."

"Takagi-san, behind you!" Kohta shouted as one of Them was right behind her.

The pinkette gasps as the undead reached out. She then let out a very loud scream.

…

"What was that?" Takashi said. He then recognizes the voice. "Rei we have to move! Saya!" He yelled as he leaped off the stairs, the long haired orangette following suit.

…

"What was that?" Toshimi gasps.

"Someone alive, that's for sure." Misuzu answered. "C'mon, let's go!"

"Right behind you!" Miu shouted.

…

"We have to go now." Yuuki said as she and Saeko led the two older women to the source of the scream.

..

Quickly Saya pulled up her drill spear and gripped the handle of the power tool due to the close proximity of the undead. "Get away!" She screamed as she drilled into the gaping mouth of the dead man, blood throwing everywhere. "Get away! Get away! Get awa~y!"

The three groups reached to scene of Saya drilling a hole through the struggling undead.

"I'M SICK OF THIS! I'M SICK OF THESE THINGS!" She shouted as she pulled the drill out and drove it into the left eye, piercing the brain. "STAY THE FUCK AWA~Y!"

"I'll take the ones on the left." Saeko said as she rushed to three in her direction.

Takashi locked eyes with Miu and Yuuki. "Miu, take those on the left! Yuuki make sure none of Them get passed you! Rei you're with me!"

"Yes!" Miu smiled as she unsheathed her weapon. "Toshimi-san, Misuzu-san. Please stay back."

Rei nodded as she and her childhood friend went to undead, the orangette piercing through the eye of the targeted one and hitting it against the wall.

Takashi bashed the head of an undead teacher and whipped out his knife, throwing at an undead that was close to the redheaded teacher, nailing it in the forehead.

'Not bad.' Saeko praised the two as she saw her captain cutting down some undead, a large smile on her face. 'I should let lose a bit now to.' She thought as she smashed the skull of an undead and then with a 'click' drew her blade to slash the other one, revealing that like Miu, she was also wielding a hidden blade. As the undead fall, she smiled with her hair shadowing her eyes and sheathed her blade.

Saya was leaning against the wall, her body shivering as the fact that she nearly died. "I hate this. I fucking hate this." She mumbled as tears gathered in her eyes.

"Saya." Takashi softly called his friend as he approached her. "You're safe now. It's alright now."

"T-Takashi." She looked to her friend.

"I'm right here." The grey tipped blackette said soothingly as he placed a hand on the pinkette's shoulder. "We're all here." He said as he helped her stand and gestured to everyone else.

Saya nodded as she looked about the carnaged area and stopped at a reflection of herself on the mirror in the hallway, her body still trembling. "L-Look at me." She stuttered. "I…I-I'm a mess. I-I-I have to clean…up." She ran her hand through her hair. "Mama and Papa are going to be mad." She added.

"Your pops would probably blame me for it." Takashi muttered.

Saya turned to her friend. "B-Bakashi~!" She cried as she latched to him, her tears streaming down her cheeks as she held him tight.

Takashi sighed as he rubbed the pinkette's back, trying his best to calm her down.

Yuuki sighed as she closed the large glass door that was opened, seeing that several more of Them were coming their way. "We should keep going to the staff room."

Takashi nodded. "Let's get there then." He looked down at the pinkette. "Feeling better, Sa-chan?"

Saya nodded as she stepped back wiped her eyes. "I'll live." She then looked at Yuuki who was struggling to not laugh. "Tell my parents and I swear." She started.

"Bah." The short orange haired teen waved the threat off. "As if you can take me on."

HOTDA

"There we go." Takashi sighed as he placed a stack of A1 papers packets against the door. "Thanks for the help Kohta." He smiled.

"N-No problem, Ta-Komuro-kun." She mumbled with a blushed face.

The teen laughed a bit. "Now that we all can take a breather, we should reintroduce ourselves. It should take our mind out this situation for the time being." He reasoned. "Komuro Takashi Class 2B. I was part of the Baseball Club."

"Got kicked out because the team captain was jealous of you being a better slugger than he is." Yuuki giggled. "Miku Yuuki. I'm not part of any club. Let me get one thing straight. Those rumors you heard about me aren't true. Hell I'm still a virgin." She pointed at the teacher. "Trust me I had her check. I'm gonna wash my hair now."

The blonde blushed, but cleared her throat and decided to introduce herself. "Marikawa Shizuka. I was assigned to be the school nurse thanks to Hayashi-san vouching for me. Pleased to meet all of you."

"Hayashi Kyoko." The woman introduced herself after wiping her glasses. "Coach of the tennis club and social advisor."

"Takagi Saya; class 2B." She said before going after Yuuki. "Gotta wash my face."

"Busujima Saeko; class 3A. Vice-president of the kendo club." Saeko introduced herself.

"Anai Miu, same class. President of the kendo club." She replied with a big smile before she was suddenly before the male and hugged him close to her covered breasts. "I will do my best to protect you all, even more so for you, my God." She said in a praising tone. "My body is for you only." She whispered to him, but everyone else still heard her.

Takashi managed to get his head out of her breasts and gently held her back, who opted to stand behind him and hug him around his stomach, rubbing her cheek against the back of his left shoulder.

"Miyamoto Rei part of Sojutsu Club. Class 2B." The orange hair teen said sending the tanned skinned sword wielder a look.

"Ichijou Misuzu; 2C. I'm part of the Baseball club." The maroon haired girl nodded to her best friend.

"U-Uhm….Nikki Toshimi, same class. I was part of the soccer club."

"Hirano Kohta. 2B." Kohta went to the other girls and tapped the door. "Everything okay in there?" She asked as she opened the door.

"I'm okay." Saya said as she was wiping her face and Yuuki had a towel over her head. The pinkette than stood up and removed the towel. She then reached down and pulled out a set of oval shaped glasses.

"You wear glasses?" Kohta blinked.

"Yeah." The pinkette sighed. "My contacts keep falling off." She muttered.

"Ha!" Yuuki laughed as she took the towel from her head, revealing that her hair is blue. "Guess I wasn't the only one wearing contacts." She chuckled as she blinked a few times and her eyes were now orange with a yellow five star pointed shaped pupils. She blinked again and they reverted to their previous color. "Don't tell anyone else about my eyes though." She winked.

"Wha…Wha…Wha…" Kohta gasp as she pointed at the now bluenette while looking at her eyes.

"My eyes and hair used to get me a lot of unwanted attention." The now bluenette smiled.

"This is getting out of hand." The glasses wearing brunette muttered as she rubbed her face.
