Chapter 1
"Okay so I about 15 minutes until my next classroom." this thought belong to a young man name hayate hina an everyday college student at a magical college on the rooftop drinking a mountain dew enjoying his break.
"Seriously how can you stand there without a care in world despite what happened?" that remark belongs the school's resident honor student ms saya Iwa she had black hair and yellow eyes, and she is talking about hayate being rejected by rei and went on to date his best friend gen moments later and him being okay with it all.
"wow I think that's the first time you were concerned about me." hayate said as he turned around being surprised by her question.
"Oh come on is it really that surprising."saya said ignoring his reaction and continued.
"yes actually it is normally you'd call me out when I'm feeling sorry for myself or on my bullshit and you'd just fuck off." hayate said nonchalantly towards saya.
"Well how long are you going to be up here anyway?" saya said changing the subject.
"Uh in about ten more minutes give or take." hayate said not caring about the time.
"unbelievable, god you're an idiot" saya said annoyed by hayate's carefree nature.
"Ah. there's the calling out of my bullshit." hayate said teasing saya as she walk off.
"she used to be much nicer when she was younger, what happened to make her have an eternal stick up her ass but then again I guess that's was happen when you grow up in a very prestigious household I guess." hayate thought as he look up at the sky. He looks at his pinky finger and remember a long seen forgotten promise between him and his childhood sweetheart rei.
"When I grow up hayate I'm going to be your wife" young rei said the young hayate.
"do you really mean it rei" the young hayate asked with glee.
"yep. pinky promise" the young rei said holding out her pinky and hayate his pinky around her pinky and together they said.
"cross my heart and hope to die" when hayate opens his eyes to look at his pinky once more before laughing at himself.
"heh. As if we'd hold on to a promise that we made when we're kids heh. Hayate looking at his phone the see the time, alright I guess I'll class nowwwww what is that or better yet "who" is that?"
hayate said very curiously as he grabs his binoculars of his grab to get a better look at what's happening in front of the school railing.
"Okay, so we have a brain dead dude continually banging his against the railing, now let's get a closer look at you my friend, and what the fuck?"
hayate unnerved by what he saw. This man had white ghost like skin with no eyeballs just black eye sockets with crack formed from them and his mouth looks like it was sewn shut or something. his skin wrapped tightly around his skull as if there.
"I don't like the vibes I'm get from this, okay three teachers are approaching this saw like looking motha fucka, I'm really not liking this." hayate said worried for what's going to happen and unnerving feeling he felt kept was getting bigger and bigger.
"Hey what are you doing here, this is school ground sir and we'd like you leave sir." the female teacher said unknown person unsure of why he is herein the first place.
"Maybe he just need to be ruffed up a bit to get the message." the gym teacher said as he grabbed the man by his collar and banged against railing.
" v-violence is not necessary." the female teacher said to trying telling to him there's a better way to go about it before being cutting off by the unknown man biting the lower half of Small's arm.
"gahhhhhhhhhh" mr. small screams in pain trying get the man off him.
"Damn you" another teacher says as he stabbed in the chest in an attempt to save his friend and as the man let's go of mr. small's arm he falls back screaming in pain as the other teacher circle around him to see what they can do to help ease the pain.
" let's the wound." the female asked him so they could patch him up but he said nothing until two seconds later his skin became that of the unknown man from earlier then reached out and grabbed the female teacher by her shirt and violently bite her neck.
"Ahhhhh" the female screamed in pain while tried to get him off her.
"what the fuck?" hayate said looking in horror at what he just saw before running to gen and rei's classroom.
"Okay, this is happening. The fuck." hayate says to himself in disbelief but quickly wrapped his head around what's going on but he stopped himself.
"Wait, panicking will get me nowhere the only way to through this is to keep my head on straight and stay focused. okay let go." hayate says to himself before reaching his friend's classroom.
"Gin, Rei we gotta go." hayate said to whole classroom and in response the whole classroom looked at him like he was crazy.
"Hay what's up?" gen said to his friend confused by his friend's outburst soon after hayate walk to gen to be in earshot so no one else could hear them.
"Look man I just saw some teachers get killed just in front of the school not too long ago" hayate quietly tells gin about what he saw.
"are you serious man?" gin says in disbelief.
"dude I'm not lying about this shit we need to leave now before the whole school catches wind what happened" hayate encouraging his friend to come along before things go from bad to worse.
"Hayate what you doing? We have no time for your jokes" rei says discouraging what hayate say.
"Rei think. on any other regular day I wouldn't even go to your class, so don't you thinks I came here for a good reason." hayate said pretty annoyed at the fact rei didn't believe him.
"Look rei we're going whether you like or not." hayate said not dealing with her arguing.
"hey let me go." rei said swatting hayate's hand away from her. "Rei, hayate mind be right and think about it on any other day of the week his he be minding his own business and he would be with us during lunch."
gen said backing up hayate and what he saw.
"but?" rei tried to argue against it until the school's intercom came on.
"shit" hayate said knowing what comes next.
"attention student please evacuate you classroom in an orderly- NO STAY AWAY STAY- GGGGHHHH" the sound teacher dying on mic before it cut off while the whole classroom was stuck in horror at what they heard in two seconds the entire school into chaos with student pulling each other out of the way to save themselves it became utter chaos where it was everyone for themselves.
"Come on guys, we got go now." hayate said reassuring his friends.
As hayate, gen, and rei were running through the hallway "hey where are we going hayate?" gen asked hayate no sure of where they're going.
"To the rooftop" hayate answered gen's question "why there?" gen asked even more confused by the answered.
"look man we're going to the rooftop to see how bad the situation is because I seriously doubt our school's the only who got hit and have your weapons ready." hayate answered gen with his reason while pulling out his red katana, rei used her energy to form a spear and gen used his energy to form combat gloves.
"Why isn't anybody doing anything. I mean this a magical school for god's sake shouldn't someone have an idea of what do?" rei said scared by all the chaos that is happening right now.
"Look rei even though this is a magical school nobody not even the teacher had any real combat experience or where mentally ready for that matter, so when shit got real everybody was caught with their pant down and are now falling on their face." hayate said answering rei question with the logic of what he's seen.
"how are you able keep so calm at a time a like this?" rei question him wondering how he can keep his head on straight at a time like this.
"well dad always told me that when shit hit the fan panicking will get you nowhere and the only way to get done to keep your head on straight." hayate answered rei as they make their way to the rooftop.
"NO get away from me, GET AWAY!" the scream caught the two boy attention to see rei was caught trying keep an infected teacher from biting her.
"REI!" the two boy say in unison running to her aid and as the infected continues to keep rei regain herself.
"don't fuck with me I'm the top fighter in the martial arts club!" rei said as she kicked the man off her and hitted him with her staff at with every word ending with a stab in his chest but to no effect because he was still trying to reach her.
"what. how is he still alive." rei asked herself.
"okay so stabbing them through the chest isn't worth a damn" hayate said to himself.
"don't worry rei I got ya" gen as he put the infected in a choke hold.
"gin" rei happily said to see that gin helped her but hayate saw the danger of gin's actions and ran to him with his sword ready before things got worse.
"GIN get away from that thing!" hayate yelled with fear in his voice.
"What the hell?" gen as he struggling with the infect and was horrified when the infected turned his head completely around to face gen only to bite his arm.
"gah!" gin screamed in pain.
"Oh no GIN!" rei scream horrified and trying to save him.
"Bastard!" hayate run to his friends aid.
"REI MOVE!" hayate commanded in which she did then hayate stabbed the infected all the way through until the guard hitted the infected forehead and with this the infected died letting go of gin's arm and falling to the ground.
"Okay so stabbing them through the brain is one way to put em down." hayate said to himself after killing the infected.
"Gin you okay bro, let me see your arm." hayate said rushing to his best friend's aid.
"Shit, we need to close this wound and quickly." hayate said as he rips some cloth off the dead teacher and used that and wrapped it tightly around gin's arm to stop the bleeding.
"Okay, you should be fine man."
"Thanks bro." gin said to hayate.
"alright let's go." hayate said to his friends.
"right." gen and rei responded. The three continued running reach to the top of the school but it infested with student who are all infected. Despite that fact they still ran through the infected to get to the top and kill a few on the way when they made their way up the stairs rei stopped to look behind them and saw an infected chasing after them. she stopped to try to kill it by stabbing it through the chest (not learning from her previous attempt) the infect used the staff to slam her against wall. her looks at the infected fear in her eye and screams for help (again).
"Rei" gen and hayate said unison but gin grabbed hayate's sword then ran down the stairs and sliced the infect's head off.
"Rei you alright" gin asked as he looked at to see she was alright and reaches out his hand.
"yes I'm fine, Thank you gen." rei said as she took gin's hand to help herself up.
"nice man, but now's not the time to be all lovey dovey come on." hayate told his friends.
"gen you still with us" hayate asked gen very worried his best friend and his injury. As their to the top of the rooftop rei help gen while hayate putted desks and tables on top of the stairs so no infected could get and for a extra layer of protection he strapped them down to the railings of both sides. Using this to catch a breather hayate walked over the side to look at the landscape and he was shocked at what he saw, people dying left and right, friends turn on each other and leave them for dead and other commiting suicide.
" I guess saying shit hit the fan would be an understatement at this point term hell on earth seems more appropriate than ever now." hayate said to himself out loud.
gen and rei come to look at what hayate out curiosity and they saw the same set of things he was seeing and was horrified at the sight the city they was now burning. Fires started everywhere, helicopter flying around, series of screams and cries of help filled the air. "no I can't that is happening, WHY IS HAPPENING EVERYTHING WAS FINE UP UNTIL NOW SO WHY!?"rei yells horrified by everything that's happened.
"Rei, Rei look at me alright everything's fine, everything's alright just calm down okay" gin says as he holds her in his arms.
"you good?" gin asked rei.
"yeah" rei said feeling at peace within gin's arms. while hayate watches this which a smile on his face.
"heh. I see why you chose him rei." hayate thought to himself.
"he does what I dream of doing and he makes you feel safe." hayate continues to think to himself but was interrupted by gin coughing up blood.
"GIN!" both rei and hayate said extremely worried.
"gin, gin look at me, Look at me man you're gonna be alright okay?" hayate tell gen and he does so hayate sees darkness under his eyelets and the life slowly fading from his eyes.
"heh,So it's just the movies huh, one bite and it game over heh heh." gin says laughing at the irony of it all, "no,no,no, gin gin, look at me, look at me you're my brother, you are My Brother alright?" hayate says to gin trying to keep him alive but his attempts fell upon death's door.
"that's right gin I need you, please don't leave me here, please?" rei says to gin with tears in her eyes
"hey hayate do me one last favor alright man?" gen says to hayate while looking at him.
"anything man, anything in the world" hayate says to gin hold his brother's hand tightly.
"I want you to kill me before I turn too….I want to go out as who I am, not some reject zombie." gen asked hayate.
"what?" hayate said shocked by the request.
"no no no you can't there's still time we can find you a cure and-" rei said with tears running down her face trying to convince gen out the idea.
"THERE'S NO TIME AND I DON'T WANT TO BE LIKE THEM I WANT TO GO OUT AS A HUMAN!"gin yells at rei and is accepting of his fate.
"Please man don't let me become one of them please." gen pleaded to hayate.
"Alright brother I give you a painless death." hayate said to gin reluckented to do so but he saw no other option.
"no hayate you can't you can't do this please" rei pleaded to hayate and hold on to gin for dear life trying to protect him.
"Please rei don't make this harder than it needs to be." hayate said pulling rei away from gin so he could fulfill gin's dying wish and as he readies up for the slash he remember the time he and gen spent together and their vow of brotherhood, as he remembers all those hayate finds it harder to deliver the slash or steady his hands for that matter.
"I've always treasure our friendship brother." gen says look up at hayate with a warm smile and hayate tighten his grip and with a scream he cuts off the best friend's head.
"NO!" rei screams out and breaks down crying while hayate drops to his knees with his head down and covers up his now dead best friend crying as well.
