5 Amidst The Chaos (1/2)

NOTE: From now on I'll use ”walkers” to address the people who gets affected by the virus turning them into mindless cannibals.

In the school grounds, ”move it or I'll beat the crap outta ya!” yelled one of the students that is scurrying for his life away from the walkers with haste as he keeps shoving other students that's blocking his path not caring whether they live or die.

Inside the school building, Kohta and Takagi are waiting at the classroom's door observing the students that are running in the hallway in a panicked state because law and order in the school is already null and void, without the presence of teachers it just went so chaotic that its every man for himself.

”Humans eating other humans? What a sick joke.” Takagi said as she further tries to think of a way why the fuck did this happen. ”This isn't happening. There's no way this is happening” a bitten student said while walking in the hallway with one of his hands covering his bitten shoulder, fully believing that this just truly cannot happen no matter what. The student also added, ”right, Mom? Right?” as he faced one of the other students that is already bitten and all bloodied up from eating others this student is clearly not a sane person.

The walker approached that student and used his hands to grip the face of the student as tight as a vice grip then got dragged away to a corner for the walker to have his fill of student flesh, as this was happening Kohta and Takagi went pass them making that pitiful student as sacrifice so that they could safely go on.

”Where are we going Takagi?” asked Kohta as he run as fast as he can because he isn't very athletic and fit even him is trying so hard just to keep up with Takagi. Takagi turned her head around and replied, ”what, did you have something else to do?”.

Kohta lowered his face in embarrassment and said, ”well, i was thinking of going to the staff room...” before he could even finished what he's saying Takagi cut him off and said, ”that's stupid, what the hell do you expect our teachers to do?” as she stopped briefly and observed the surroundings then proceeded again. ”But Takagi....in this situation” said Kohta hurriedly following behind Takagi.

Takagi stopped for a moment, ”I have a question” she asked, ”what is it?” Kohta replied. ”Do you wanna die? Or do you wanna live?” Takagi said with a very serious expression as she looked Kohta in the eye sending shivers down his spine.

”Uhm, well...” Kohta can't even finish replying to Takagi as he turned his head and saw a bloodied dead body right besides him, this was the one the trio Takashi, Rei and the diseased Hisashi just killed it's Mr. Wakisaka but obviously they don't know this.

”See, there's some people standing outside the office who had the same idea as you” said Takagi as she spots a group of student knocking helplessly on the door of theteacher's office asking for help. But what greeted the students are a bunch of walkers that suddenly bolted out of the room as the door got opened, making the students that are expecting help instead got served death.

Seeing this bloody scene, Kohta got scared and shocked. ”I wanna live!” said Takagi as she points a finger to Kohta making her resolute about her decision. Kohta which clearly doesn't want to debate with her just nodded his head showing his approval its not like he can do anything about it.

”Move it fatass” yelled Takagi as they resumed running towards their destination.

Meanwhile at the observatory in the school's rooftop, two students can be seen sitting side by side which is Takashi and Rei while one student which is lying deadon the concrete floor this is Hisashi, Takashi and Rei are there silently pondering about something. This very moment the walkers outside the blockade are already piling up making it like its impossible to cross to the other side.

They sit there silently acting as like everything around is normal, Takashi is currently staring at the dead body of Hisashi Igo his best friend while Rei is just silently sitting at his side.

Takashi kept thinking when he smashed his steel bat right at Hisashi's head ending his life just by thinking about this waked him up from his daydream. Seeing this Rei asked, ”what is it?”. ”Well, i want to know what's really going on” Takashi replied. ”That was blunt” Rei said gloomily as if Takashi isn't talking to a living person but a dead person a person which is dead inside.

”Why would i lie?” said Takashi as he rubbed his head not knowing what to do at this moment of crisis. Rei then suddenly stood up and asked, ”Can i see your phone? I wanna try calling my dad” she said.

”I know he's a cop, but how are you gonna contact him when even the police emergency line is busy?” asked Takashi because when Rei tried calling her father last time no one picked up. As Rei was dialing his father's phone number in Takashi's phone she said,” he gave me a private number that I'm not supposed to normally use” after that she puts the cell phone right besides her ear waiting for a reply and someone surprisingly picked it up this time.

”I got through!” said Rei along with a happy face. Seeing this Takashi approached Rei at the side to hear the conversation. ”Hello? This phone number.... Takashi's?” said Rei's father that's speaking on the phone. ”Dad! Listen Dad, we're at school right now...” Rei didn't even have time to finish what she's talking about then he's father suddenly said cutting her off, ”Hello? Is this Takashi?” her father didn't seem to hear what she's talking about and went straight to talking about Takashi.

”Rei must've given you this number” her father said with a very worried voice. ”Is she safe?My connection...” then static followed making the following conversation very hard to understand. The last thing they heard from the phone call was ”get out of the city ASAP” followed by a gunshot then the line just got cut off. Rei is shocked hearing this from her father making her worry more than before.
