Josh and Carl managed to hide in the janitor's room with 5 other students, the room is incredibly large for a janitor's room, the room only has a wooden door with a cabinet over it, placed by the students to prevent entry, the students separate some things from the janitor's closet that was on the right side of the end of the room, that could serve as weapons.
-----The government may be lying, from what you said, the virus released by some terrorist group according to the government was just to make people aggressive not to make them more resistant, A student spoke. -----Was the cuts really ugly?
-----Yes, he had lost his fingers and his guts were almost out of his belly, replied Josh.
A student who was sitting holding his legs with his arms, he looked desolate Carl tried to comfort him with kind and comforting words but he got up suddenly and spoke.
-----We should have gone with the others, the truth is that staying here is stupid, damn it the laboratory exploded, certainly the military will not even try to look for survivors here.
-----They'll look, I'm sure, they need to, staying here may seem stupid, but there's chaos out there, looking at the news and talking quietly, it can suck, there's a zombie outside. Everyone is quiet when they hear the word zombie .---- It's funny to think that this is real.
In the room, students divide into groups around the room, looking at the room it seems that even with the renovation it was not renovated or even the renovation was minimal, there the paint on the walls is peeling, the lamp in the center of the room does not seem to have been replaced and the wooden door does not look reliable - any knock can knock the door down.
-----Is it really a bad idea to have stayed here?, commented Carl to Josh who was sitting on the floor next to him.
----No, it's safer here, just buy outside, it's certainly safer to stay here... shit why Sofia had to leave.
------You know how much she cares about her parents, .... hey I had an idea, Carl gets up from the floor and calls the other students, Carl takes some fabrics and tapes that were in the janitor's closet, and starts cutting them and put it on his arms and neck, Josh remembers seeing it used in the movie ´´Train to Busan´´,but don't comment anything.
-----Do you think this shit will work, not everything you do see in TV works in real life, commented one of the students,----Better than nothing, this will only give a little help better not to depend on it.replied Carl.
-----So your idea is to leave this room?
-----No ..... Carl was going to speak, but he is interrupted by Josh .---- It is a good idea to get out of here, maybe going to the cafeteria and locking the doors is safer, compared to here the cafeteria is wider.
----- I think it is not a good idea.
----- What is your name? Asked Josh
---- It's Ma .... max.
---- listen Max, if that zombie invades here while we are fucked, this room is very small, we should at least try the cafeteria, we should also put barrels in the entrance and exit doors since they are made of glass.
----Okay, but I stay, how many "armors" can you make, apart from yours, Carl makes 2 with his fingers.
Entering the janitor's office, Josh and Carl go out with Nick, a tall, skinny boy with the appearance of a football player, while the other students stay and put the barricade back in the door. The boys decide to go to the teachers' room where the only zombie they knew until then was at school, but even before they reach the teachers' room they see a trail of blood that leaves the direction of the teachers' room until the entrance, they decide to put two benches to serve as a barricade at the door.
-----Do you want to switch? Nick asked Josh who was holding a hammer.
----I have a certain ´´experience´´ with a hammer, I helped my father to repair the fences on his farm,
----Sure!, Josh traded his hammer for the garden scythe Nick was carrying.
----And now, should we put barricades at the exit? Asked Carl.
-----I think we should check the rooms and the cafeteria, We already know that the zombie in the principal's room must have left, but there may be another one inside the school, so it is better to have an exit if we have to escape. Spoke Josh.
The classrooms are empty and messy, the bathrooms are in the same state, arriving at the entrance to the cafeteria, you can see that there is no one in the entire cafeteria, everything seems to be in order and the tables and benches are organized as if someone had just finished. to tidy them up. Josh and Nick, look closely to see if there is no one hidden, Carl calls their attention to look at the kitchen, the door was opened, Carl waits for Josh and Nick to enter the kitchen together. Entering the kitchen, it is possible to see some pots and cutlery on the floor, it scares the boys, they retreat a little, but after taking a little air they carefully return to the kitchen,Looking a little better at the floor, in addition to cutlery and pots on the floor, there is vomiting, the vomiting leads to a room inside the kitchen, where the ingredients are.
You can hear a roar, which increases as they get closer, at a certain point when the grunt seems to disappear the pantry door starts to open, the boys decide to run because the kitchen is too small, Josh and Nick manage to escape out of the kitchen, but when Carl was about to leave the kitchen, the zombie that was very close to Carl goes to him, Carl puts his arms over his face, he is knocked down by the zombie. Carl tries to pull the zombie's face away from him, while the zombie tries to pull Carl's arms, the zombie starts hitting Carl on the ground, when Carl can't seem to take it anymore, he manages to have strength and throw the zombie forward, The zombie soon goes to Carl again, not giving Carl time to get up, he grabs Carl again on the floor until Nick give a blow with the back of the hammer towards the zombie's head and hits it, the zombie seems to have died with the blow , a little blood falls on Carl's face, the hammer gets stuck on the zombie's head, Nick puts his foot on the zombie's back and pulls the hammer, a little blood from the zombie ends up splattered on nick's face..
-----You are fine dude?asked Nick.
-------Ye....yes(coughs) i´m.... (coughs) I'm fine.
-----you didn't actually swallow his blood, .... right? asked Josh.
-----No, just splashed on my face.
-----Better look to see if there is ´´anybody´´ else in there. warned Nick, wiping his blood-stained face.
The three looked again and there was no one in the kitchen.
-----Shit, he's from our class. Carl commented looking at the body on the floor.
-----Paul, I never talked to him much, but he looked like a nice guy. said Josh, trying to comfort Carl.
------It must have been him and those other guys who did a little explosion in the lab, idiots at least he didn't kill me. Carl spoke in a sad voice looking at the corpse.
-----I think I'm seeing something that can cheer you up. Josh was pointing to the window that shows the outside of the cafeteria, a small cat was sitting in front of the window outside.
-----is a kitten will really make me forget this shit we're going through.
----Hey I just wanted to help your .....
Before they even start an argument between Carl and Josh, they are stopped by Nick, who tells them to block the school exit door, when halfway there, Carl ends up feeling a weakness and asks to lean on Josh.
----I think I'm feeling what James said is depression...(cough).
----just because of tiredness calms down Josh we're almost done...,are you sure you don't swallow paul's blood?
----Of course (cough) not Josh,(cough)(cough) Hey Nick where are you going?
Nick appears to be walking in the opposite direction for no apparent reason.
----hey hey HEY what you doing?
-----Let him go ... (coughing) I bet he won't go very far, (coughing) .. you know, man I smell a strange smell in the air (coughing) like ... um ... hum....
----what the hell is going on with .... shit.
Carl bites Josh in the neck, Josh in the reflection gives Carl a blow to the face with the garden scythe he was carrying right after the blow Josh stumbled away from the place.
-----Fuck ... but that (choking) I ..... can't (choking) breathe. Josh leans on the ground to regain strength, Josh took one of the tissues off his arm and tries to put it around his neck, he fails and gives up and moves on.
-----Me (suffocating) ..... to be infected ?. me (suffocating) doctor ... father? decis....
Josh incredibly manages to get to the exit door, he stumbles and bleeding badly manages to put both arms on the door and pushes it.
------I command in my life, (suffocating) ... I command in my life, life is mine (suffocating) ..... life? ... um .... the ... sky ... is cloudy.
