Ch. 1 It Begins
Seth Crawford pulls into an open parking space between Andrew Self and Todd Hutchins at school. Seth is driving a silver and black Ninja. Todd is driving a large white Ford truck, and Andrew is driving a Forest Green Jeep. Seth removes his helmet.
Seth- What's up
Todd- not much Seth
Andrew- you know, gas prices, my weight… the usual
Seth- I hear ya dude
Todd- hey didn't we have homework in English…
Seth- I don't think so, we have that Pep Rally today…
Todd- oh yeah that is right
A bell is heard signaling time for school to start.
Seth- time for class see you two at lunch
Andrew- Later
Todd- see ya at lunch then
Todd and Andrew walk into the school building. And Seth dismounts his bike. As he is walking away from his bike Chance Smith pulls in driving his Red corvette. He parks it beside Seth's bike and begins walking to class with Seth.
Chance- What's up Seth
Seth- Nuthin Brah, you ready for first period?
Chance- as ready as Ill ever be dude
As they walk past a silver BMW Scott Meyers gets out and joins them on the way to class.
Scott- Hey when is our Senior Projects due?
Chance- uh November 10 I think…
Scott- phew, man I thought they were due today… Dude I was panicking and…
Seth- don't tell me, you stayed up till 4 this morning typing it up.
Scott- No I had mine done last week but I left it at home.
Seth- wow… you really don't have a life do you.
Scott- I have a life, its just not fast paced and as dangerous as yours
Seth- what's that supposed to mean
Chance- yeah dude you knocking our jobs?
Scott- Nope, you two are members of the KM rescue squad. Props dudes
Chance- dude I thought you were trying to knock the Rescue squad
Seth- why would he do that, we've saved plenty of people since we joined
Scott- I don't think helping the elderly out of the floor in their bathrooms counts as saving people
Seth- Shut up Scott
Seth swings at Scott who ducks and runs off into the school. The time advances to 12:00 and Seth, Scott, Todd, Andrew, and Chance sitting at lunch. Lisa Everett and Caitlyn Brooks join them at the 2 lunch tables they have pulled together.
Seth- What's up?
Lisa and Caitlyn (simultaneously) - not much
Seth- you guys coming to the pep rally?
Chance- Yeah it's gonna be great.
Lisa- really, what's gonna happen at this one?
Seth- you'll just have to come and see
Caitlyn smiles as Brice Long, Dylan Caine, and Thomas Camp join them at the tables.
Thomas- Hey Seth, Chance, yall ready for the pep rally
Seth- Yeah its gonna be awesome
Todd- I wish you would tell us what's gonna happen there
Andrew- Yeah dude you know it aint nice to keep your friends in the dark.
An announcement comes over the intercom.
Principle- Will everyone involved in the pep rally please report to the auditorium, everyone involved in the pep rally report to the auditorium.
Chance- that's us
Chance, Seth, Brice, Thomas, and Dylan leave. Caitlyn yells after them.
Caitlyn- good luck
Scott- that sucks they told you but they didn't tell me.
The time fasts forward to 1:00. Scott, Todd, Caitlyn, Lisa, and Andrew are sitting in the front row of the auditorium with the rest of the student body.
Todd- what are we waiting on
Caitlyn- patience Todd
The lights dim and curtain rises. The auditorium goes silent. Chance is on the drums, Brice is on the bass, Thomas is on the piano, Seth is playing lead guitarist, and Dylan is on secondary base, and Dante Wilson is on vocals. The auditorium is abuzz with cheers and the group on stage begins playing. They play Beethovens 5th and Fur Elise, with a hard rock edge.
Then as the group finishes performing the song a person covered in blood enters from stage left and Dante sees him.
Dante- dude are you okay?
The man jumps on Dante and tries to bite him.
Seth rushes the guy and pulls him off of Dante, then pushes him to the wall.
Dante- Get this idiot off the stage
Seth- Dante, you all right?
The man rushes Seth but Seth, using his guitar like a bat, hits him across the face knocking him to the ground, breaking his guitar, and he drops the remaining piece. Dante walks over to the bloody man who is now laying on the ground.
Dante- that looked like it hurt, hey get this guy out of here before he hurts someone.
Seth waits a few moments for a reply that doesnt come...
Seth- fine... I'll take care of it...
He grabs the bloody man up by the back of his collar and shoves him back stage... Seth walks back stage and reemerges; he is backing slowly towards the audience.
Thomas- dude, what…
Seth- Everyone, get out now…
Dante- why
2 stage hands emerge from backstage they are partially eaten. The people in the auditorium scatter and the original guy that attacked Dante grabs him by the ankle and trips him. A dull thud is heard as Dante's head smacks against the stage knocking him unconscious.
Chance- Dante
Seth kicks the first attacker in the head and a loud crack is heard as his neck snaps. Thomas and Chance grab Dante and quickly carry him out of the auditorium. Seth picks up a snare drum and throws it at one of the security guards causing it to stumble. Seth then runs out of the auditorium and stops beside Thomas and Chance as they see various cars are on fire and the ground is littered with body parts; blood is splattered here and there. On the far side of the parking lot a car explodes.
Seth- Fuck me…
Andrew- Hey this way
Seth turns and sees Andrew with his Wrangler in front of them. Seth and Chance pushes Dante inside the Jeep and Chance and Seth run off. Thomas piles inside and the jeep pulls off. Andrew is driving with Todd in the passenger seat. Thomas and Scott are sitting on either side of Dante. Lisa, Caitlyn, Ashley, Britney, and Leila are sitting in the back.
Lisa- what's wrong with him?
Thomas- he hit his head… he is unconscious.
Scott- Hey… where is Seth and Chance going?And where is Brice?
Thomas- They went to help the rest of the students.
Leila- Idiots…
Ashley- they could get killed.
Chance, Seth and Brice are fighting zombified students and faculty. Chance is fighting with a steel chair and Seth is fighting with his hands and Brice is slamming zombies left and right with his bare hands.
Chance- dude they're still coming
Seth- dude forget this place, let's get out of here.
Brice- uh oh
They turn to run but are met with more zombies.
Seth- dude
Chance- Seth… it's been fun…
Seth- humph figures…
Brice- I'm not gonna die here
Then a SWAT van Hits the zombies in front of them and Seth, Brice, Chance are pulled inside before it speeds off.
Seth- Lemme go
Chance- Dude who are you people
Jack- calm down kid obviously we're SWAT
Church- yeah we saw you two needed help so we extracted you… but if you'd rather be out there fighting…
Seth- Nope
Chance- What's goin on
Foxx- we don't know
Jack- what were you kids doin out there
Seth- we were tryin to help
Jack- well you two seemed to be holding your own, but you could use a hand.
Chance- what are you talking about
Jack sets a bag down at their feet. Seth opens it.
Seth- Oh yeah…
Inside the bag are some weapons and various bits of SWAT gear.
They suit up. Seth has 2 MK23s and an M4, Chance grabs a 92FS and an M4. Brice grabs a Desert Eagle and a M4. All are wearing SWAT Riot gear. Seth gets out his phone and Calls Leila, Leila answers.
Leila- Seth?
Seth- Leila, where are you guys?
Leila- we're pulling into my house. My dad has a lot of guns, we should be safe here for a while.
Seth- good idea, wait there the Calvary is on the way.
Seth hangs up the Jeep pulls up at Leila's house. Her mom and dad's car is gone.
