Hey guys! I'm here presenting my first Hetalia Axis Powers fanfiction. Just so you know this is kind of based off the plot in the manga series Highschool of the Dead. ( Also there's gonna be no panty shots or bouncing jugs... So it's a little more age appropiote! ) I just didn't put this in for a crossover because there's no characters in HOTD involved. The title and plot are based on it though. Also I give credit of all the copyright material in this story to it's original owners! (( CAUTION! )) Some of the character's behaviors in this story may be inaccurate. But I don't know the behavior of some of the characters so please bear with me!
World of the dead, chapter one: A global threat
It's the present, early fall, early morning. And the dorms of a certain highschool are all at sleep. That is until...
" HEY HEY MAMA, SAY THE WAY YOU MOVE GONNA MAKE YOU SWEAT GONNA MAKE YOU GROOVE!"
" God damnit, America! Can you turn your alarm down? Besides if you want a good alarm use The Beatles!" England moaned crawling out of his bed.
" Pfff.. Dude, when you have an alarm you need some loud music! Just be lucky I used 70's rock and not 80's!" America said walking across the floor opening up the closet.
" Ugh... Of all people I get him as my dormate... Why...?" England said pouting up at the ceiling.
" Dude, because your my older brother! What would be a more logical guess?" America said with a hysterical tone tossing the articles of England's uniform behind him.
" Hey you git! This is my uniform! Don't just go throwing it all over the place! Unlike you of course I'm a gentleman and would never throw a uniform across the room.." England said picking up his uniform off the floor.
" Yeah and this is coming from mister I talk to air and eat and drink flavorless crap all day long." America said slipping his already buttoned up uniform over his head.
" What was that?"
" Haha! Your so easy to piss off!"
Around half an hour later groups of students were gliding down the paths leading from the dorms to the main school campuses.
" Liz! Wait up for me!" A shout was heard feet away from the represenative of Hungary.
" Seychelles, please don't call me by that name..." Hungary said drooping her shoulders with a blank look.
" Oh don't be such a buzzkill!" Seychelles replied with a cheerful tone.
" What are you so preppy about today...?" Hungary said. She appeared to have a slight appearence of bed hair. She probably didn't get a lot of sleep last night.
" I don't know I just have a feeling todays gonna be a great day!" Seychelles replied waving her arms.
" You say that every day..." Hungary said with her unchanged blank look.
" Anyway I found my social group! See you Liz!" Seychelles chimed skipping down some steps toward a couple upperclassmen.
" Please don't call me that!" Hungary shouted in reply.
" Well well look who found us... For the fifth day in a row." England moaned as Seychelles skipped down the stairs.
" Hey you two ya hoos!" Seychelles playfully said skipping up behind England and America.
" Ya hoo? Seychelles if you want to call someone a ya hoo here... America's your guy!" England ranted at Seychelles's comment.
" Well good morning to you too Arthur..." Seychelles unamusedly said with a slight frown. America followed the conversation with his well known heroic laugh.
" Haha! That's how he greets me in the mornings too! Don't worry dude, he's just jealous because he's depressive and crap." America proudly said without glancing at England nor Seychelles.
" Why I oughta!" England angrily whispered grabbing America's neck while trying to walk at the same time. Seychelles responded with grabbing the collar of England's uniform and pulling back. " Come on England! The last thing we need is another death on campus!" Seychelles cried.
" The last? Good lord! Do you know how peaceful this world would be without this idiot?" England shouting resisting Seychelles's actions when a powerful force pushes him back sending him falling back with Seychelles in the same position.
" Bro... Just because your older than me dosen't mean I can't kick your sorry scone clogged ass!" America said smacking his hands together with a slight frown. A very rare sight indeed. England layed there on the ground growling like a dog.
" America has a point England... Besides,I bet if you two had a relationship America would be the seme by a land-" Seychelles was cut off by England covering up Seychelles's mouth with his hands. " Never ever ever ever... Mention America being a seme around me... Because it will never happen!" England angrily said turning his head away.
" I don't know bro... Seychelles could be right... I'm taller than you, stronger than you, and to top it all off I'm the one who looks like the older brother!" America said with a proud expression.
" yeah but I'm a hundred times more times mature than you!" England complained. " Yeah but Britain they say that girls are supposed to be more mature than guys..." Seychelles whispered. Before England could slug his brother in the face they arrived at the campus where punching your former colonies could get you into some pretty hot water.
Several hours later it was lunch time. While everybody's in the lunch room or some people scattered throughout the school's long labyrinth of halls, two different brothers skipped down the hallway finding a good spot to eat their lunches.
" Romano~! Where are we going...?" Italy said being mentally dragged by his older brother.
" Shut up! I can't concentrate with you being a big mouthed idiot!" Romano replied scanning the halls.
That's when both of the Italians noticed a figure at the main gate. " Hey what in the name of hell is that thing?" Romano said stopping and walking to the window with his little brother following.
" Maybe it's somebody here to deliver more noodles~!" Italy said looking out the windows. His brother reacted by slamming his hand on his little brothers head.
That's when both of the Vargas brothers noticed four figures running up to the gate to investigate the mysterious object.
" W-what is it?" Ukraine whispered staring at the mysterious figure slamming against the school's main gates.
" I have no clue.. But I want to hit it with something..." Russia said walking closer to the gate.
" B-brother! Why would you do that? You might get hurt plus I can't have my future husband getting hurt!" Belarus said creeping up behind Russia. Ukraine dragged Belarus back reducing distractions.
The fourth figure walked up to the gate and stuck their arm in between the bars of the gate. " W-what are you doing?" Ukraine softly cried watching the figures actions.
" Simple! I'm checking out this weirdo to see what he wants!" The figure replied.
That's when the figure behind the gate grabbed the other figures arm and bit it. Ukraine cupped her mouth with her eyes as her eyes grew with shock and a gasp escaped her lips. Belarus and Russia's faces were slightly filled with shock as they watched their fellow classmate fall on the ground dying.
" I-I can't watch.." Ukraine cried covering up her eyes with her hands. "Pfff your a sissy..." Belarus said glancing down at the dying student. Russia crouched down looking at the student and then after a few moments he rose back up.
" He's long gone da..." Russia said with a blank expression. Ukraine's eyes filled with tears as she rushed back into the school. Russia watched his older sister rush into the school, he didn't notice his younger sister's face fill with shock as the mysterious dead student rose back up with blood dripping off the students strangely blood soaked uniform.
" B-brother... We better hightail out of here.." Belarus whispered. Russia glanced at the object rising up to it's feet. Before the monster could attack the Belarusian, Russia in the blink of an eye picked up his younger sister up bridal style and rushed back into the school.
"F-F-F-Frapello! Did you see that?" Italy cried looking at his brother who stood next to him in shock.
" Damn... Veneciano! We have to tell somebody about this immediately!" Romano shouted grabbing his brother's arm and ran down the hall.
By the time lunch was over the news about the mysterious happening at the main gate was spread along between a good chunk of the student body. Some of the students however have disappeared during lunchtime without a trace. Some other students however looked at the rumor as a fresh meat urban legend... And others didn't care about it.
Speaking of not caring ..
" Dude I finished that Legend of Zelda game you loaned me the other day... My lord it was so... Awesome!" America cheered handing Japan a copy of Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
"T -Thanks America.. I'm glad you enjoyed it." Japan said taking the videogame back and putting it into his locker.
" Say did you hear that weird story about what happend at the main gate during lunch?" America said in a different non-hyper tone.
" I heard a junior was killed there earlier..." Japan said putting his books into his locker.
That's when Japan and America heard a high pitched shreik coming from down the hallway.
" Dude! Did you hear that?" America said with a mixed expression of horror and shock. " I sure did..." Japan said with a dark expression taking a long thin black case out of his locker followed by rushing down the hallway.
" Hey dude! Wait up!" America replied chasing after Japan.
The shreiks continued until America and Japan found the source.
There cornered in between a group of lockers was the little represenative of Lichienstein, sitting in the space quivering in fear surronded by a group of students who were soaked with blood and purple skin tones.
" Hey dude isn't that Switzerland's little sister?" America whispered to Japan.
" Yeah but the thing I would like to know is what's up with those students? Nobody would hurt Lichienstein.. She may be a defenseless country but if you mess with her you'll get in some pretty deep trouble with Switzerland.. He's a pretty powerful country..." Japan said opening the top part of his black case revealing a super sharp katana.
Before Japan could make a move though a gunshot was shot from the right corridor. One of the strange zombies flew in the air and fell over. The rest looked in the direction of the corridor searching for the source of the gunshot.
Lichienstein rose up with tearful eyes still quivering without a single scratch or bite... Just a few drops of blood remained on her skirt, Probably from the strange students looming over her. America rushed over to the small defenseless country to do his heroic duties trying to comfort the victim and ask her if she was cut or bitten anywhere.
Japan looked down the right corner finding the shooter. Switzerland stood there holding a pistol out toward the approaching zombies. Japan reacted by jetting across the ground fully slipping out the kantana and slicing all of the zombies in half.
" Are you ok Switzerland?" Japan asked panting holding his sword to the ground.
" That's not what is important." Switzerland scowled walking in the direction to America and Lichienstein. Lichienstein stood up as her face beamed up. She then dashed across the school floor glomping her older brother in a loving hug.
" Brother, you saved me! Thank you!" Lichienstein cried in her adorable high pitched voice. " It was the least I could do.." Switzerland said returning the hug. " Aaaaw..." America said with a face full of awe. Switzerland sent America a scowl blaming him for ruining the mood.
" What were those things?" Japan asked rising back up on his feet.
" Zombies..." America said with a dark tone as the three countries sent him slightly worried looks. Lichienstein's probably being the most severe. " What are those?" Switzerland said letting go of his sister.
" A simple name for the term, undead.. Zombies are beings who used to be living humans until they catch a mysterious virus that kills them and makes them come back to life.. The zombies then search for other humans being attracted by sound... The zombies would bite the human and eat any flesh they can.. Also they spread the zombie virus into that human.. So that human becomes a zombie as well... But the thing is... There's no known cure for the disease..." America said with a dark expression and tone.
" Wow... That sounded... Smart..." Switzerland said with a slightly shocked expression knowing America for being always cheerful and carefree. " So if there's no cure then that means.." Lichienstein whispered quivering in fear.
" That's right... Once you get bitten.. There's no where to hide." America said ajusting his glasses like a bossy wise ass. Lichienstein's face grew into worry as her older brother wrapped his arms around his sister's body. " Don't worry... I will protect you no matter what the cost." Switzerland said comforting his sister. He then shot America a glare angry at him for scaring the little country.
" I think just in case one of the zombies grabs us... Let's prevent the chance of being strangled by them by taking off any tight clothing in the neck area." Lichienstein said with her face full of less worry.
" Hey that's a great idea!" America said bouncing back to his cheery tone immiately untying his tie. Switzerland and Japan did the same reactions with Lichienstein taking off her necktie. " Also it would be a good idea if we unbuttoned a button or two on our dress shirts." Switzerland said taking off his dark brown vest.
" Are you crazy? That's violating the dress code! It's exposure of our skin!" Japan cried watching Switzerland's actions. " Dude... Switzerland said a button not the whole thing... Besides, with these zombies lurking around I have a feeling there's some kids violating the dress code as well." America said taking off his vest.
Even the innocent female country took off her vest and unbuttoned her shirt a little. Japan had no choice but did the same thing. " I wonder if the other allied forces, and axis powers are ok..." Japan said unbuttoning the top button on his shirt. " Knowing Britain and his loud mouth he's probably long gone!" America chuckled. " Look who's talking.." Switzerland said with a frown.
" What about that one girl you always talk to?" Lichienstein said looking up at America. " Huh..?" America said glancing at Lichienstein. " She's a colony of Great Britain just like you isn't she? Isn't her name Seychelles?" Lichienstein said scratching her head trying to regain her train of thought. " Oh crap! Seychelles! I forgot about her!" America cried regaining his memory.
Lichienstein flinched and grew in worry. Switzerland jerked back in fear as well. Both siblings were glancing at America's direction. Japan looked at America and walked backwards in fear as well.
" Guys... What's wrong...?" America said in a calmer tone. That's when he felt something grab the back of his dress shirt and pull back. America realized it was the zombie Switzerland shot. Apparently it survived and is currently attacking its closest target. America's face grew with worry trying not to make a peep.
Japan immediately went into action. running up infont of America and grabbing his bare shoulders for the force of the zombie already pulled a partial part of the Englishmens uniform off. Japan then yanked back trying to help America break free from his close chance of death.
" what's up with the kids today? Their biting eachother and attacking eachother..." Seychelles said sitting in the corner of a locked classroom.
" And with these strange students I wonder if America and England are alright..." Seychelles whispered to herself.
That's when a pound sounded on the door. Seychelles flinched and backed into the corner. The pounding got louder and louder. Seychelles grew more worried and worried by the second.
Then a purple tinted fist smashed through the wooden door. Seychelles shook in fear as a couple more purple fists smashed through the door.
" Is this my last hour...? Am I going to live or am I going to be attacked and killed by these strange monsters...?" Seychelles thought as she tried to shrink into the corner as much as she could. Then before she knew it the door completely broke down and a mob of zombies marched into the room searching for extra prey. There was too many of them for Seychelles to beat with a single chair... If no help arrived... She was going to be cornered.
Seychelles closed her eyes waiting for the moment of faith to come. She heard the moans of the zombies get closer and closer.
Thats when she heard stomping and gunshots.
" There she is!" A eastern accent shouted. Seychelles kept her eyes closed avoiding any eye contact with the violance and gunshots. Then she felt a presence approach toward her and felt two bare arms wrap around her tightly huddled body. Seychelles tightened her eyes shut and quivered in fear that the presence wrapping around her was a zombie approaching their prey.
Seychelles slightly opened her eyes finding nothing but gunpowder smoke and blood splattered on the floor. But her eyes flicked opened when she heard a close familier voice.
" Seychelles are you ok?" Seychelles looked up finding that the person wrapped around her was her fellow former english colony America. Who apparently was wearing nothing from the waist up except his glasses.
" A-alfred whered the rest of your uniform go?" Seychelles cried. " I was attacked by a zombie and either I gave up some of my clothes or I gave up my life.." America said helping Seychelles up as Japan and Switzerland finished up the zombies.
" W-what's going on?" Seychelles cried running toward the middle of the room. " I don't know... I was just getting my books for Biology when I turn around finding a bunch of zombies surronding me..." Lichienstein said walking into the classroom. " Me and America heard a shreik down the hall and found Lichienstein surronded by the undead." Japan said closing up his blood drenched kantana.
"I heard a shreik on my way to calculus and followed down the halls finding my sister." Switzerland said.
" What about you Seychelles? How did you end up in this situation?" America said taking a step toward Seychelles. " Well I was on my way back to history class and was attacked by some weird possessed students. Seychelles felt two hands grab her shoulders. She looked behind her finding America with a worried expression.
" Attacked? Are you bitten or scratched anywhere?" America said looking around Seychelles find no bites or scratches. " America really has his ways with the ladies dosen't he ...?" Switzerland whispered to Japan sarcasticly. " Well Seychelles is probably the only girlfriend America has so I wouldn't count on that.." Japan said with a sweatdrop. America then turned around facing Japan, Switzerland, and Lichienstein and then saluting.
" Don't worry you guys! Seychelles hasn't been infected yet!" America said with a cheerful tone. Switzerland facepalmed, Japan shook his head in disbelief and Lichienstein's cheeks tinted with pink.
" So what now?" Seychelles said as everybody turned to her.
" Simple... Let's find the others and get out of here." Switzerland said smiling which was something he almost never did. He reached his arm out.
" Anybody with me?" Switzerland asked. Lichienstein put her hand ontop of her brother's. " Of course!" Lichienstein said in a cheery tone. Japan put his hand on top of Lichienstein's.
" I need to find the other Axis Powers.. So I'll join you." Everybody looked at America and Seychelles. America gave off a hearty laugh and smacked his hand on Japan's. " Hell yeah I'm in! Do you know how many heroic duties need to be done in desperate times like this?"
Everybody then looked at Seychelles. Seychelles picked up a school chair with one hand and put her other hand on top of America's hand.
" Let's get out of this horror town."
