Prologue

The bus came closer and closer to the stop, me and the five other kids there stood there anxious, today was our first day of school, everyone had stayed up all night making sure we had everything, (me especially)

There was a gust of wind that blew through my hair, I decided to grow my bangs out over the summer, I didn't look half bad, I could pull off an emo look if I wanted to. I wore a black MCR jacket and tight blue jeans with converse high tops, I had a jansport backpack that I had last year (with tape all over it)

The bus stopped, I followed the kids inside and showed my bus pass to the obese driver, I then sat down with Gerard. "Wow..." I started "Where is everyone?" Gerard and me looked back and saw a lot of empty seats, even emptier than ditch-day "Lacy called me." Gerard said "said she was feeling like crap and stayed home today, she didn't even sound like herself." "Well iv'e never seen a bus this empty, maybe its something going around." I replied "Hope I get it, I need more vacation." Gerard said, he plugged in his ipod and stared out the window.

The bus driver was listening to some heavy metal on the radio, basically dancing in his chair to it and stopped. There was someone standing in the middle of the road. The bus driver slowed down hoping he'd just get off the road, but he just stood there, with his head down. The driver honked the horn, he didn't move, he repeated honking it but the person just looked up showing slight curiosity, the kids on the bus started murmuring amongst themselves "What's going on? Why'd we stop?" "There's some guy on the road" "Crap, where ALREADY running late." The bus driver decided to stop honking the horn and got out the bus himself.

Excuse me sir, I've got to get these children to school, so…" The man looked up and revealed his pale face, "Are-Are you all right sir?-AA!" The man jumped on the bus driver and started biting his arm "Get the fuck off!" he yelled and punched his face," The man didn't seem affected… The kids on the bus erupted "He's biting him!" "Someone help him!" "Call Kristina! She's like not gonna believe it!" Me and some other kids got off the bus and held the guy back "AH! You fucktard, you bit me!" yelled Gerard and kicked him, the guy hissed and tried biting the kids again, luckily one of the girls on the bus called the cops on her cell phone, sirens were heard in the distance…

About a half hour later, the lunatic had been arrested and had to be taken by force, everyone was still talking about it, I looked up every now and then at the driver, he wasn't looking good…And neither was Gerard, he almost got sick like two times, he got bit on the hand but it didn't look to bad, at least that's what I thought, and finally we arrived at school, only twenty minutes late, too bad that incident wasn't enough to stop school. We all stepped off and trudged to our separate classes, i looked up at the dark clouds stretching over the mountains, "Today's gonna suck." I said to myself

I didn't know how right I was….

"Sarah Espinosa? ...Not here…" The teacher marked yet another student absent. "Rachel Fin?..." Once again no one said "Here." I looked around the class, once again there were very few students, and one ALREADY puked and got sent to the nurses office. I sat there watching the rain pouring outside, I was beginning to hope I WOULDN'T get sick, it looked serious. I drowned the teacher out with my ipod after she called my name.

After the bell rang there was a huge crowd by the basket ball courts, I ran over with Amy, a girl I met first period and saw a student thrashing as the school security tried to restrain him, he screamed and kicked and scratched, like the insane guy, he had a pale look on his face. Teachers and security backed the crowd away telling them "There is nothing to see here. Move on." I walked to lunch later with Amy and Desmond (a friend from last year) I tried looking for Gerard and texted him "…….C'mon Gerard, answer." I closed my flip phone and bit a piece of my cardboard pizza (what I call the school pizza) "This sucks." Said Amy "I can't get a hold of any of my friends." She closed her flip phone too. "Me neither" said Desmond "None of my sick friends are answering." "Holy shit, I think there's even less kids here than this morning." I said looking across campus "Didn't you hear?" asked Amy "there's a lot of people getting sick all over town with something everyone's getting tested after the next period for any viruses or something."

After 5th period I took a shortcut down the hall towards the gym with Amy "The locker rooms should beee…" said Amy holding her map "Here." She pointed down the empty hall "That can't be right, there's no one down here." I said "Maybe were late." She suggested "There was virtually no one on the way up here either!" I said "Oh look there." Said Amy "A teacher was walking slowly down the hall moaning softly, Amy and I stopped and came to her closely "Um, sorry, do you know where the students are suppose to head after fifth period?" I asked. The teacher stopped and turned slowly

Half her face was missing.

I froze and Amy screamed as the teacher ran towards us with outstretched arms, she sunk her nails into Amy and bit into her neck. "Motherfucker! Get off her!" I grabbed the teacher's neck and squeezed, she turned around and elbowed me in the face, she shrieked and and tried to tackle me me but I rolled away, I needed help, I pulled the nearby fire alarm.

RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING I grabbed Amy's hand and ran. I had to get out of this school. I had to call the cops. I had to- As I opened the front doors of the school my mouth dropped, before me stretched a sea of not only students and school staff but people from all over town just shuffling around, A woman with bite marks all over her sniffed the air and turned towards us, and everyone around her followed suit.
