Jayden and Anna

"Fuck"

The beautiful red head swung down the hammer down on his face with no remorse, no hesitation, he quickly rolled to the side dodging the attack, the hammer slammed into the ground causing cracks.

She quickly dashed towards him once again ready to attack but he was ready, he sidestepped her hammer swing letting the momentum of her attack swing her forward, Ryan grabbed onto her wrist Swiftly dragging the hammer off her hand.

"Calm down!" he spoke, yet not filled with rage or annoyance, it was strange hearing how he spoke so calmly after having his head almost bashed in.

"Who are you?" The redhead asked, Ryan stared at her for a second before replying to her questions.

"The one you almost killed that all you need to know, what are your names"He replied in a neutral tone, he admired the beauty of the two but that was all, he admired it and after that attempt he doubted she wasn't only just pretty but also dangerous.

She knew after what she just did she didn't have much right to ask him for his name so she decided to introduce her self first.

"I am Anna and that Jayden" The red head introduced her and her companion, the other had silver like hair, her face remained frozen of all emotions it reminded him of himself but hers was different, it looked like she couldn't even process the events that were happening, she was denying it, she couldn't accept this new world, and the first thought that appeared within his mind.

'First type of people to die' This world was real and death was this new culture here, if one didn't learn to accept it now then their demise was certain.

"You people, could you please enlighten me about the things that have happened to you so far"Ryan asked in a gentle tone.

Information was key, this outbreak wasn't normal neither has any such thing of similar nature happened on such a grand scale, he neither Intel on what was happening so far.

"It all started yesterday, when we were out at night with one of our friends, Stacy, she had gotten bitten and we didn't know what happened, so we took her to a hospital but we didn't know several cases of such kind had already occured and before we knew it.

Everything went out of control, hundreds of people went insane and crazy, the whole hospital was overrunned and even Stacy, she, she" Anna stopped for a moment before continuing.

'Stacy, she-"

"I don't need to know that part, it already obvious, so Skip it" Ryan spoke his tone remaining neutral as always.

"After we escaped the hospital, we found out the whole city was taken over"Anna said with tears pouring out of her eyes

"Okay!"Ryan still remained unfazed by everything that had happened, nothing interesting yet but the city was overrunned but it happened so fast, there was no sudden warnings or signs about an outbreak occuring meaning it wasn't bite by bite that caused the city to be overrunned if it was, the government would be able to have contained it without any trouble, meaning the infection happened on a grand scale.

' Being bitten isn't the only way for one to get infected, that valuable info '

"Is that all the information you have" Ryan asked, his voice still remaining calm, his hair was well managed with his breathing and demeanor not showing any fear, both girls could only wonder what this man was thinking for him for him to be so calm and collected.

"Yes, I believe we should stay he_" She nodded her head but the next thing that happened left her speech less, this man opened the door and planned to walk out.

"Wait where are you going, we have to stay together, it the only way to survive till the government safe us"She knew how stupid she sounded saying this, humans were more dangerous than the creatures out there, you could never tell what they were thinking, She didn't know if Ryan might be some sort of psychopath but she didn't care.

The more people they were, the safer she felt, so now she didn't care what kind of person Ryan was, as long as he stayed with them for the time being and didn't try anything inappropriate, she wouldn't care.

"Aren't you safe?" He asked with an eye brows raised with curiosity.

"Yes but_" Anna was soon interrupted by Ryan, he didn't give her anytime to make a counterargument.

"As long as your safe then, there no need for me to be here, I just came to check if you guys were safe because of the old man who died fighting for you asked me to help, now that I am done with that, I don't feel guilty leaving both of you here since I have done my part"Ryan walked out the door, he had left the hammer with them and took hold of his knife.

He could see a few zombies around him, their sluggish movements were nothing but ridiculous to him, they were no threat.

Practice made perfect, he needed experience in killing the Undead, what made them so scary, their bites, the one hit move that sealed one fates.

But how would they bite some one with their slow movements, that means their hands were one of the major problems avoiding their grip was key to surviving a fight against them.

Andy charged towards one of the Undead, it white eyes landed on him and it blood filled lips opened up to expose it rotten stench, Andy held his breath and charged in without fear, the zombie swung it body forward wildly but Andy didn't falter, he performed a kick with the back of his right foot into the creatures head knocking it back.

Not giving it time to recover it balance, he charged forward stabbing it through it brain ending it Undead life.

Another one came Charging behind him but with the new meat shield he had, he didn't worry, he threw the dead zombies corpse towards the incoming zombie causing it to fall on it back with this moment of vunerability the rest was history.

Zombie after zombie came and the fate was the same, one grabbed him by the arm, it grip was strong but it fingers wasn't, Ryan easily cut through the decomposing corpse fingers like a hot knife cutting through butter with him free of it grip, he proceeded to burst the Undead head with a swift round house kick.

The smell of blood filled the hallway and the corpses of the Undead decorated the floors, Ryan had been on a killing spree, he had one advantage over others, he didn't feel fear or hesitation or guilt, the world might have changed to most but it still remained the same to him, in both the normal world and the current apocalyptic one both had one Major thing similar One had to struggle to survive regardless of how they did it, it was the same.

Andy picked up a corpse and brought it back to his room, he placed it on an empty table and began to slowly cut through it, this patient of his was alive in away, it arms and legs had been cut off with it jaw split in two to prevent it from biting.

Andy needed to know if there were any more weakness of this enemies, zombies were weak in the head, yes, a common fact but was that all, this was the real world not some film, he needed to discover it all the possible weakness.

He started by creating multiple puncture wounds within this zombies body, hours passed but it didn't seem to have any signs of dying soon, it couldn't die from blood loss, he punctured all it organs except from the brain but it still remained alive.

"So this is some form of immortality, do they starve?, no I don't think so, so what the need for human blood, it seems more like a computer program set out on destroying humanity, they don't breath or need to eat for days and when not in the midst of humans they remain docile and show little no reaction but only movements, ?"

Ryan performed a little quick cut on his finger letting the blood spill out and the creature seemed to react almost instantly, they react to blood and have no survival instincts intact, this things were a weapon against mankind.

Ryan killed the Undead after his quick experiment session, the building was empty of zombies yet something felt somewhat missing.

"I don't remember missing anything out, I cleared all the zombies and created a safe house and I gained experience, what else"

The image of a familiar face appeared in his face, it was a female, Emilia, did he feel worried?, he wasn't sure if he did, he didn't know that feeling but his clear rational mind told him going out there to look for some girl that he wasn't sure how he truly felt about her, was the last thing he should do

Going out there into the unknown was suicide, he had enough food here to last him about a month, Ryan rarely made human interactions in the world before it turned to hell, he mostly bought all sort of foods and kept them within his room, reason?, so he didn't have to come out and talk, he didn't understand humans so why try and approach what you don't understand when you can hide from it.

most people would think that he was some kind of lunatic who was preparing for the doomsday but he never expected that bad habit of his to be so helpful in the future.

He had enough supplies to last him a month, but if he looted the other apartments he was sure it would last him significantly longer.

He also needed allies with the exception of the two girls that were hiding in a room, they were mentally weak, they hesitated to much and can't still accept the new World, a man eat man world literally.

But he wouldn't keep leeches or parasites, he had cleared the whole building by himself, if they wanted to enjoy this new shelter safety, they had to work for it.

"Ladies open the door it me, the guy you almost killed me" Ryan knocked on the door for a moment but no one came, he waited a little more but nobody still came.

"Did they commit suicide or something, I wouldn't be surprised after all the mentally weak is prone to killing themselves to escape this world, the trauma of seeing the world like this must have been to heavy on them"

But that didn't seemed to be the case, footsteps approached the door from the other side and it was opened by Anna, droplets of water were hugging onto her smooth skin and her hair seemed a bit wet, the fresh smell of zombies blood wasn't around her anymore.

The girl had taken a bath in this situation, who cares about being clean in an apocalypse, Ryan was slaying undead while she was enjoying a warm bath, Ryan hadn't felt like this in some time, annoyed.

"Hello Anna, it seems that you were enjoying yourself with a luke warm bath in the bathroom, how was it?" He said trying to show her how stupid it was to worry about hygiene in this situation.

"Yeah, it was good but the water was a bit cold" Ryan facepalmed himself on the forehead, this woman didn't even think that her actions were stupid.

"I see, I need you and your friends to help me out because if you want to live here you have to work for it" Ryan told the red haired girl,she didn't seem to have a problem with it, she knew what Ryan had been doing outside, she could hear the sound of bodies dropping and it all started the moment he went outside, she knew he had gone a zombie killing spree.

"Okay, we will do anything except from you know ' that ' , if ' that ' what you want then don't expect us to do it, we won't let you take advantage of us like that" Her face turned red, she had seen in most movies that some men in exchange for protection would ask for compensation through intercourse.

She didn't want to stoop so low to doing that, she still had her pride and value left and wasn't willing to give it up and surrender herself or body to some random man.

"please just acting childish I don't know how you got such an idea, I just want you to dispose of all the dead bodies, leaving them like this will only allow the spread of illnesses" Ryan spoke, his eyes looked towards the other girls, Jayden, she hadn't spoke so far.

'Has she fully broken down, it expected but for how to lose it this fast, it feels abnormal '

"What about her, why is she still likes that" Ryan asked, he didn't even bother to whisper, his words had definitely reached Jayden ears.

"Could you please be a little more quiet, a day before all this, her brother had died in a car crash, she hasn't spoken ever since then, she hasn't made any expressions, she been frozen, I don't even think she cares about any of this, her brother was her only family, after his death, I don't think she has any other reason to live"

Anna whispered, Ryan after hearing this felt a little pity on her, she was similar to him, Ryan didn't have a reason to live at first till when he met Emilia but after they broke up, he wasn't sure of why he was living exactly now.
