After witnessing the capabilities of these 'little zombies', Koji warned everyone not to let their guard down. "While you you guys hotwire the bus, I suggest some of you try to reinforce the windows and bumpers. I have a feeling we'll be ramming more than just road blocks and gates." He slowly motioned towards the grade school building again, checking the halls for signs of life and movement. "I'll go see if I can find a few things that can help us here." A moment later, he was gone.
The grade school building is probably one of the most horrifying places Koji has ever been in since the apocalypse began. Beside scribbled crayon drawings lie bloody hand prints of children, begging for their lives. The pictures seem to change right infront of his eyes, from peaceful illustrations of flowers and houses, to gory images of dead bodies and cannibalism. Feeling sick, Koji stepped backwards, only to realize how close he was to tripping on an undead kid, crawling on the floor making no moaning noise at all.
Oh f*ck.. He was used to hearing moans as a warning of their presence, but these children were quiet. For a minute, he watched the child make his way towards Koji's leg. A bit of sympathy came through his mind before he cracked the boy's head open with his wooden sword. Never in his life did he imagine himself killing little boys and girls no older that 8 years old.
A few minutes later, Koji found his way to the 2nd floor. Through the windows, he could see the rest of the survivors by the parking lot. The 12 o' clock sun peered through the broken glass, illuminating the bloody floors. The first door sign that caught his attention had a few blood splatters on the knob.
Art Room
Slowly opening the door, Koji slipped his way in, making as less noise as possible. The area seemed clear as he closed the door behind him. After exhaling once, he began searching the room for supplies. He managed to get enough duck tape, some scissors, and a few confiscated cutters. After checking the area one more time, he left the room.
Science Laboratory
The room was colder than usual, as if someone placed the air conditioning in winter mode. He rubbed his hands together to keep warm and motioned towards the cabinet of vials and bottles.
Okay.. these look dangerous.. I dont know what Miss Anasako needs but oh well.. He muttered as he held a rather large bottle that had a big skull with cross bones in it. He carefully stuffed the containers into a gym bag and left the room.
Clinic
The big red cross symbol was quite obvious. Without thinking twice, Koji entered the room and quickly stocked up on penecilin and other pain killers, bandages and gauzes, and syringes. The gym bag was now feeling heavy and it was still a long walk from where he was to the buses. As soon as he zipped the bag, he heard a knock on the clinic door.
"Who is it? Is that you guys?"
No response. Just more knocking.
"Cmon, help me out here. This bag is getting heavy."
Still no reply. Koji dropped the bag gently and motioned to the door. "Guys..?" As soon as the door was fully opened, a small girl screamed at him and jumped at him, knocking him off balance. The girl was trying to wrap its tiny bloody hands around Koji's neck as it continued to snarl and growl. "Get-a-way-from-me!" Koji pushed the undead grade schooler away hard, smacking her head on the corner of the door. Another undead child came and ran towards Koji's legs panting. He hesitated for a moment, thinking it was just a scared boy, but when he noticed the torn flesh from his side, Koji swung his sword hard at it. The body flew across the hall and smacked into something that appears to be a small red box. The boy's hand fell on it and suddenly a loud echoing siren blasted all over the building. "F*cking fire alarm!"
Back at the bus, some of the survivors waited idly on the seats while some observed how hotwiring vehicles were done. At the corner of their eye was a young man, running with a large gym back stuffed to the brim. He was waving frantically at them. When the image became clearer, they noticed Koji with supplies but apparently trying to say something.
"They're coming!!!"
Ryuu let out a breath of relief since she wasn't bitten but was still worried about her arm."Alright better have Kirin take a look at that then and try not to be fooled by them, I know you were trying to do the right thing but...I want to believe that maybe some are alive but by the looks of it it just leaves me in doupt."
"Remind me to never let you drive again, Sirena," Naoki said quietly from her seat behind the lieutenant. It was like some sick version of a virtual ride. The zombies hammering against the bus during were scary enough; add in an innocent looking girl who was a driver from Hell, and it was enough to send Naoki gripping the edge of her seat until her knuckles turned white.
