chapter three

I was very shocked and disturbed as I saw the

cause of the loud scream; a woman dirctly across

the school on the other side of the street was being

attacked.

A man who was covered in blood and had a chump

of him neck missing was trying to literally eat this

woman.

The disturbing thing about this was the man's

look; his eyes were crazy diseased as his pupils

were almost not visible, his fingernail had turned

to long sharp claws and his neck and leg were bent

in an odd angle.

He looked exactly like my siblings from my

nightmare and the thought of this sent a shiver

down my spine. This man shouldn't even be

walking or alive but he still starggered towards the

Woman.

Thick red liquid poured from his mouth as he open

his mouth to release a loud unconfontable snarl.

The woman he was attacking was just screaming

and moving backwards frantically but all hopes on

her were lost as she hit the wall, having nowhere

else to run.

The man caught up with her and took a large bite

out of her reapetedly.

It was fevw seconds later that the soldiers arrived

shooting the man twice in his head and he

slumped to the ground. We were all expecting the

soldiers to help the attacked woman but we were

shocked as she was also shot and blood splattered

on the wall behind her.

Everyone gasps as the saw the brutal act of the

soldier as he entered the truck back and drove

towards south. Their were diffrent murmurs filling

the hall once again but they were cut off by a loud

scream, this time a lot closer.

A student standing at the door was being attacked

by someone else who had the same feautures of

the man from ealier. My heart jumped as I felt

a Ishrieked at first butI was no longer bothered

when I turned and came face to face with Richard.

He was holding a wodden baseball bat covered in

blood.

"What the hell are you still doing here, we have to

get out of here. Where is Donald" he asked.

Over here" Donald yelled walking towards us

with his two freind Jack and Kevin.

"Good, now lets go" Richard ordered as he

grabbed my hand, "we can't pass the front

anymore, there are too much of does things there,

we gotta pass the back'" he yelled over the noise of

scream from different places.

We all followed including a friend of Richard,

Debby. We left the crowded hall and were about to

branch to another hallway leading to the other

school exit door but we stoped right in our tracks

as we came in contact with about six infected

people.

"Shit Richard cursed, "go back'" he yelled as we

all turned around and headed towards the

crowded hallway once again but we stoped again

as about another twelve infected people cut us off.

"In here" Richard yelled as he stood beside an

opened door which led to the school's library

directing all of us in as he quickly closed the door

shut after entering.

"What the hell is--- AHHHHH!" Jack screamed as

an infected person grabbed his neck and tooka

huge bite out of it.

O shit" Richard cursed as he ran towards the

student who was biting Jack.

Once he reached them, he swung his bat really

hard, hitting the students right in the eyes but it

was as if nothing had happened as the student

sprung towards Richard knocking him down.

Everything seemed to be in slow motion as the

hungry infected people were pounding on the

door, Jack fell to the ground and started shaking

violently, like he was going through a seizure and

as Richard and the infected student were battling

with each other on the ground.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW

"Jack!" Kevin and Donald yelled as they ran to

their friend who was now gasping for breath, "It's

alright pal, Everything is going to be okay" They

consoled their dieing friend.

"Uhm, guys, a little help here'" Richard who was

still battling with the infected student yelped while

trying to grab his baseball bat with his left hand

and blocking the infected with his right

1, Lisa and Debby all stayed in a corner as Richard

kept battling with the student, Kevin kept

conforting Jack and Donald ran to the baseball bat

lying on the ground, picked it and started hitting

the infected person continously which gave

Richard the chance to kick it off himself.

After kicking him off, Richard quickly grabbed the

bat from Donald and hit the student in the head

really hard that the eyeball literally disconected

from it's socket but the student didn't feel

anything as he lunged for Richard again.

What the hell is this thing I thought to myself as I

saw what was happening.

Richard dodged the infected which lunged at him

as he hit it once again, but still to no good result,

he kicked the infected away from himself as he

charged towards it, hitting it on the head rapidly

till it's head scattered before it finally stoped

moving. It wasn't a good scene at all.

Richard heaved a sigh of relieve as he droped the

bloody bat in his and slumped to the ground as he

was breathing heavily.

"Jack?" Kevin said shaking his friend's lifeless

body,"J- Jack?" he stammered again with tears

rolling down his cheeck. This was the first time

was seeing Kevin cry.

"Is he dead?" Debby asked looking at the lifeless

body in Kevin's front

"No. No, this can't be, he can't be dead'" Kevin

sobbed,"Jack?" He muttered as he saw his

friend's hand twitch slightly, "You alright bud-"

"Kevin get away from him!" Richard yelled as he

ran towards them picking up the bloody bat again

then wacking it in Jack's head reapeatedly.

Everyone was shocked by his act as he continued

hitting Jack's head.

"What the fuck is wrong with you man, he is not

fucking dead" Kevin yelled as he hit Richard's

chest pushing him back a little.

"Trust me man, he is dead, ifl ha-." Richard was

about to defend himself

"He wasn't dead, I saw his hand move!'" Kevin

yelled moving his face very close to Richard's

"I said he was dead, any second he would have

woken up as one of those things and he would

have attacked you, I have seen that happen!"

Richard yelled back also moving is head very close

to Kevin's, if anyone of them were to move an inch

they would be kissing

"Alright guys I don't think this is the best timeto

fight" Debby adviced, getting between the two

boys who were about to fight, "any second now,

that door will be knocked down and we will all die

so we have to get out of here as fast as possible"

"I agree with her" Lisa peered in.

"Well, the door is not an option so we have to find

another way out of here" I stated

"How about the windows" Debby suggested

"No way. That's too high up, it's about fifteen feet

high" Richard replied

"We could make a staircase or something like that

with one of these shelves" Donald said pointing at

the shelves which carried books.

"Alright, but we have to do whatever we are going

to do fast because that door is gonna break down

anytime soon" Richard agreed

We all stood up from our positions on the ground

as we all walked towards the shelve closest to the

window.

On reaching there, Il and lisa pushed all the books

on it to the ground and everybody grabbed the

shelve. We all grunted as we lifted it due to the

weight.

STORY CONTINUES BELOW

Struggling while carrying the very heavy and big

shelve we all heaved a sigh of relief and lucky for

us, it was the perfect height to the window.

Kevin picked up the baseball bat as he climed the

shelve which was firmly rested on the wall, when

he reached the window, he hit the glass with the

bat but it just cracked a little, he it again and again

until the glass finally shatterd.

"Ella, can you toss yourjacket over here" Kevin

requested and I did exatly as he said throwing my

jean jacket to him leaving myself in only my black

tank top.

Once I tossed the jacket, he grabbed it and placed

it on the window sill supposingly as a cushine in

other for the glass to not injure anyone of us.

"Wow, this is high" Kevin exclaimed as he peeped

outside, "luckily it is grass down there soit

shouldn't hurt a lot". He threw the baseball bat

down first before jumping to the other side.

"Uhm guys" Debby said worry touching her

feautures, "that door is going to come down soon"

she informed us while pointing at the door in

which the hinges were starting to come off. How

powerful are this things.

As one out of two hinges came off, Debby, I and

Lisa shrieked. Debby immediattly climed the

make-shift ladder followed by Lisa and Donald.

"You go" Richard ordered and I did exactly as he

said.I climbed the shelve but came to a total halt

when I saw the heightI was going to have to

jumped. Fortunatly there was no infected nearby

except for the one's that were about to break the

door.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath ready to

jump but screamed when the last hinge finally fell,

knocking the door down and more than twenty

infected rushing in.

"O shit" Richard cursed, "Ella just fucking jump!"

Richard yelled as the infecteds were now rushing

towards us.

I began to panick as I saw the horde that was

rushing towards us but I was afraid of height so

jumping fifteen feet wasn't going to be easy.

"Ella just jump for christ sak--" Richard wanted to

yell again but was cut off as an infected grabbed

his leg, trying to pull him down, "'shit" he cursed as

he was struggling and kicking frantically but got

pulled down hitting the floor really hard.

After hitting the ground, a loud groan escaped his

mouth but his eyes came wide open again as the

infected grabbed his leg and more were gaining on

him. He kicked and pushed and did everthing he

could to get lose from the strong grip of the

infected and it worked as it left him.

He ran back to the shelve and started climbing up

once again but fell again as the partition he was

about to step on broke and he was once again

grabbed by the infected he had once kicked away

and the remaining of them were just about ten feet

away.

He kicked and struggled even more this time but

when the infected did not leave him, he kicked

He kicked and struggled even more this time but

when the infected did not leave him, he kicked the

head and stepped on it reapeatedly until thick

blood started pouring out and it's grip fell so

Richard dashed towards the shelve narrowly

escaping the other infected as he climed up.

"I told you to jump" Richard yelled at me

"'m sorry" I looked down and saw that the

infected were almost grabbing his legs again sol

closed my eyes and jumped down landing with a

loud thud and a pang of pain as I fell hard on my

back. Richard jumped seconds later suprisingly

landing on his feet. He lost balance for a second

but regained it back quickly as he pulled me up.

"So what next?" Kevin asked.

"We have to get out of here and we will need a car

so I say we head to the parking lot and see if we

can get a car and get the hell out of here" Richard

stated and we all agreed

We all started walking towards the south corner

which was the fastest way to the parking lot but

Richard came to a full halt when he saw what was

on the other side.

"Shit. We can't go that way there's way too much

infected for us to pass without getting seen"

"So what do we do'" Donald asked.

We gotta go around and pass north'" Richard

answered.

"What the fuck. Dude that way too long" Kevin

exclaimed.

"Well we can't pass here, so if you coming with us,

fine, if you are staying, fine if you are passing south

then be my guest!" Richard yelled/whispered once

again putting his face near Kevin's.

"You guys better not fight if not I'm going to woop

both of you's asses and since we have only one

option I suggest we all co-operate and go" Lisa

spoke up as the two boys hesistently drew back.

When that was settled, we all agreed to go north

even though it was long. We walked as silently as

we could hiding behind bushes and stuffs like that

and luckily we were able to go unnoticed until we

were directly opposite the parking lot.

We couldn't go further anymore because of the

huge hoarde of infected that were roaming around

aimlessly.

The only thing that was seperation us from the

parking lot and our great escape was the

interlouged driveway. It spread across about thirty

feet and it was full with infected people.

"What do we do now?" Kevin asked

Richard waited a few seconds before answering,

"we go through" he said in a serious tone.

"You are kidding right" Kevin stammered.

"No" Richard replied, "I'm not"

"What the fuck is wrong with man, we can'tjustgo

through a horde of those things. You have seen

what they can do" Kevin yelled/whispered trying

to keep us unnoticed from the infected.

"We go through. The car we are going into is not

far, the infected are spreading and they are not as

fast as us so on my mark we will all run into that

blue pathinder. I've got the keys with me" Richard

ordered.

"You are crazy dude. Really crazy" Kevin mouthed

finally accepting defeat.

"Three, two, one, now!" Richard yelled and on his

count we all started running as fast as we could.

Everyone ran as fast as they could as Richard was

hitting any infected that came near us with his

baseball bat. I was very scared but I knew this was

the worst time to freeze so l just closed my eyes

and dashed forward.

My eyes snapped open when I heard a very loud

scream.I turned around to see who the sream had

come from and whimpered as I realized it was

Donald. One of the infected had jumped on him

and was trying to bite him.

The slimy siliva was dripping on his face as he was

lying on his back wit his two hands above him and

on the neck of the infected, he was trying to

prevent it from biting him.

Richard who was still dashing forward had no idea

of what was going on behind him.

I stood still on a spot ruminating whether to

continue running or to go back and help Donald

when an infected person tried to attack me.

I shrieked as my leg automatically started running

toward our blue pathfinder. I looked back once

again to see Donald still fighting for his life.

We were very close to the car and were about ten

feet away when Richard suddenly stoped.

"O shit!, everyone into the school bus!" he yelled

as he turned to his right and entered the school

bus which was the closest car to him.

Lisa, Debby and Kevin followed in tow then I saw

the reason for the sudden change of plans, about

ten other infected had come out of nowhere and

were coming towards us.

I quickly entered the bus too as the infecteds

rapidly and violently banged on the bus.

"Where is donald?" Kevin asked as he noticed his

best friend was missing.

"He's gone.

So we are at the end of chapter three and Donald is

gone... ouch. Lets keep reading to find out what's

going to happen next.
