A:N/ Don't say it I already know...But I was daydreaming after I watched a Zombie movie and well yeah...ALSO WHEN THERE IS A ' ~ ' SIGN AFTER A WORD IT MEANS IT WAS DRAWLED OUT! Oh I used my oc Yami for this but the other random characters mentioned were just that, random.
Disclaimer: Kishimoto owns Naruto, I only own the plot and the lines to my song I wrote, also my oc Yami, I also don't own Tomb Raider! I told Kishimoto-sama I wanted to make Madara become a poke'mon...He slammed the door in my face.
Swish...the sound I made seemed so peaceful but that peace came to an end when the zombie's head landed on the ground. I stabbed my sword through it's forehead and pulled out my pistol, shooting the zombie that had been coming to my right. I shot it once more in the head. Double tap, a rule I always followed, hey can't ever be to careful right?
"Stupid things." I said to myself, wiping the sweat off of my forehead. Oh right you probably don't have a clue whats going on do you? Well I'll explain. My name is Sakura Haruno and I'm currently nineteen years of age. I have light pink hair that goes to around mid-back. Yeah I know I should probably cut it, the only reason I keep it is because it reminds me of my mom. When I was thirteen I had long hair but it was really thick and at the top it went up in a heart shape. Now it's thin and flat at the top which is way better. I have candy apple green eyes and tan skin, it used to be a creamy white color but being out all the time my skin turned, well tan. What? Oh you wanted to hear about the zombies? Ok sure I'll tell you.
About six months ago a zombie apocalypse broke out. Yeah, yeah I know, zombies? What a myth, but it wasn't. It was just like most movies, a virus entered someones brain causing them to become mindless, flesh eating zombies. I'll tell you I never thought this apocalypse would happen. When I was fifteen I watched a zombie movie and got freaked out, so I went on the computer and typed in if one could actually happen. It said yes it could but it wouldn't last long because their flesh is exposed and in the cold they would freeze or get hyperthermia easy so they would die. Then it said they would rot super easy in the hot weather and it also said they had to many enemies to live long. For example dogs, but hey all that happened when a dog ate a zombie was the dog turning into a zombie doggy. Anyway, it also said that the movies always show the parts after the military and stuff is already wiped out.
Now I know what your thinking, Sakura why are you alone? If you defeated those zombies so fast how come everyone is gone? These zombies are smarter than people thought. They know to go into a house during cold weather, they know not to go out in extreme heat and they know how to kill people off fast. They don't use weapons or anything but they know how to dodge and attack. That virus was weird though, it turned the military into zombies first and well from there everything went downhill. I came to the conclussion that someone purposely put the virus into the military bases first. This was confirmed when we heard that Orochimaru, a sick and twisted man who was a General in the military tested this virus on a military soldier, like an experiment. He lost control of the virus and the zombie and it broke out all over.
I lost my parents the first couple days into this, my friends too. Well I only had a few friends anyway since I was home schooled. I lost my friends Yaki, Kin, Yami, Seto and Lexin. All were girls except for Kin and Seto who were already taken by some girls who were apparently popular. Feh whatever, they were like brothers to me anyway. Speaking of brothers I have a 22 year old one named Sasori, thats right have. Yep I'm not alone, Sasori and I split up so he could get food and I could keep the path clean. Yes I know the buddy rule but we can handle ourselves plus we pretty much cleared the town of zombies except for a few strays. I was friends with a few of my brothers friends but well they were probably already dead.
"Hello? Anyone out there? Hello!" I turned my head to the left where the trees were slightly moving. I pulled out my two handguns I kept strapped to each leg, hey it made me feel like Tomb Raider.
"Hello? Oh fuck!" I heard what sounded like someone tripping, what an idiot.
"Who's there?" I yelled, my guns raised high.
"Sakura?" What the hell? How did this retard know my name? A tall figure stepped out of the trees, slicked back silver hair, lean body, and dark violet eyes. He was beautiful, he was Sasori's friend, he was my friend, he was Hidan!
"Hidan!" I cried out as I quickly put my guns on my thigh holsters and ran to him. He looked up at me after brushing off the leaves and his eyes lit up ever so slightly. Jumping into his arms I cried out in happiness and squeezed him tight. No I didn't like him, he was like a second brother but he was great looking and quite amusing with the constant swearing.
"Hey you little punk." Hidan said with slight amusement, he put his hand on my head and messed up my vibrant hair a bit. I pulled away from him with a huge smile plastered on my face.
"How are you alive?" Ok I know I was a young girl and he was a 23 year old man, why was I even alive? He seemed to realize this as well from the look on his face.
"What the fuck do you mean how am I alive? How the hell are you alive?" Well sheesh grumpy much, no I'm just kidding he's like this all the time. Seems like even a zombie invasion can't change that.
"Well I have weapons and there is food stores all around, it's not like the power goes out or people can turn it off from no bills being paid. We do however have to change the lightbulbs." I said, I mean hey there had to be lighting.
"Well at least you can handle a weapon. I stayed alive the same way and- wait what do you mean we?" He replied, oh yes he didn't know his best friend forever was alive, best friend forever...
"Yeah Sasori and I." I said, what did he think my brother couldn't take care of himself?
"That fucker is still alive? My mind equals blown." He sounded annoyed as did his facial features by the fact that he was alive but I could see in his eyes he was eager to see him.
"Yeah hes going to get food while I keep the path clear." I looked down the road and saw a red head walking down the street with bags of food. Sasori was a sort of anti-social guy, only showing his true personality around his friends and family. His dark red hair framed his face, a few stray pieces here and there. He had pale skin and boyish features making him look not a day over sixteen. His long eyelashes defined his hazelnut eyes, all the girls seemed to swoon over him.
"There he is, hurry hide I want it to be a suprise!" I said pushing Hidan off of the road. He seemed to understand since out of the corner of my eye I saw him squat down into the shade keeping an eye out for any movement around him just in case.
I smirked as I watched my brother come into view with at least ten bags of groceries.
"What are you smirking about?" Sasori said finally reaching me. He put the filled bags down so he could rest and stretched his back earning two good cracks.
"Nothing I killed two zombies and found an interesting suprise..." I said my smirk growing wider. Oh I was gonna get him good, I can't wait to see his face. I nodded my head ever so slightly and saw Hidan slowly creep up, we always did have good communication...
"Something interesting eh?" His look that he gave me showed he was suspicious, I would've been too. I nodded and almost broke out into a fit of laughter when I saw Hidan crouch down behind Sasori. Now that I thought of it I hope Sasori doesn't shoot Hidan thinking he's a zombie...
"Hug me brotha!" Hidan yelled as he tackled Sasori in a bear hug. Wow that was so out of character of him but hey he was happy.
"What the heck? Hidan? Dude!" Sasori gave a few chuckles before patting Hidan's back a few times and then pulling away. I smiled to myself at their mini reunion but the sun was going down and we needed to get home.
"I hate to spoil this reunion but the sun is going down and we need to get home." I said picking up three bags from the grocery pile and began walking away. I heard the boys behind me pick up the rest of the grocery bags and follow after me. Gosh I was going to be so bored tonight. Sasori is just going to be preoccupied with Hidan the whole entire time. Oh well I'll keep myself busy with books I guess, maybe I'll start that new series I got. Now that I think about it maybe I'll try to make them play rummy, Kakuzu liked cards more though. Kakuzu...I didn't even want to think about what happened. But my mom always said it's better to remember some things, but I'm not sure I want to remember it...
*flashback*
"Sasori on your right!" I yelled again as a dozen more zombies came from the mall. Sasori, Kakuzu and I were taking out the zombies one by one so when we went out we wouldn't have to worry about hords of zombies getting us. Well more like Sasori and Kakuzu were taking most of them out while I only had one or two.
"Kakuzu behind you!" Sasori said as he finished the zombie on his right, I was to preoccupied with my two zombies so I didn't look at Kakuzu. I slashed my katana through a zombie's head and kicked the other one away. Sasori finished it off. I turned to check Kakuzu and saw he had just finished off his zombies.
"You guys good?" Kakuzu asked putting away his hand gun. Kakuzu had dark hair to about his shoulders, it hung around his face neatly giving him a clean look about him. He had a weird eye problem so his eyes where green but his sclera(1) was a reddish pink all the time.
"Yeah." Sasori and I said in unision. We continued to walk into the mall and decided to split up and meet back at the food court. We all agreed and we walked to the direction map that showed where all the stores were and how to get there.
"Ok Kakuzu you go to the left and go through the shoe stores. Sakura you go straight and go through the clothes stores. I'll go to the right and go through the electronic shops. We'll all end up meeting right back to the food court." We all nodded and we went down seperate hallways. I looked down at my legs where I kept a handgun on each thigh, I always liked Tomb Raider...I grabbed the guns and put the saftey off. I only used these when we went to big buildings. I wouldn't be able to hear if they encountered a zombie, Sasori was a wizz with electronics, see why he picked that way to go? Anyway he put super small devices on our guns so when we shot the gun it wouldn't make noise, so if we were in trouble more zombies wouldn't come. He did however give us each a handgun we all kept on our weapon belts, so if we needed eachother we could shoot the gun off and hope they heard us in time.
"Everythings gonna be alright but I'll need you to stay here with me tonight, I wont lie I'm afraid and I need your presence to see~ the~ light~." I sang to myself part of a song my mother used to sing when I was a child. I walked into the first store and grabbed a clothing rack, I smashed it against the counter making a big clang. Zombies were attracted to sound so this should be interesting.
"Rahh." Zombies. I turned on my heel to stare at them. Five, I am epically scared right now. I pointed my gun at the one in front and pointed my other gun to the one to the left of the one in the front.
I jumped to the right as a zombie grabbed out towards me. I was going to shit my pants in five seconds. These things are horrible.
I shot another zombie and turned around. Two more left, I pulled the trigger, make that one. Where did it go?
"Grahh." I turned around and-damn.
"Hey hey hey it's Fat Albert." Literally it was a humongous fat guy with a red sweater that had more than enough blood. Ew gross, he had at least three chins. I put my gun up and shot twice. He didn't even flinch. You know that one zombie in the movies you would never want to encounter? This was one of those zombies.
"I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die!" I was practically screaming to myself as I ran around clothes racks and into the changing room. It made a ding noise and I ran down the isles. Another ding came and I knew he was running after me. I ran into a changing room and locked the door, I don't think he could crawl in but he may be able to bum rush it. Wait that wasn't right? Isn't a bum rush when someone smashes someone against an immovable object? Whatever it doesn't matter theres no school anymore.
I sat on the bench and put my legs up against my chest. I should've died already, the zombie apocalypse broke out about two weeks ago and the only reason I was alive was because Sasori and Kakuzu were always protecting me. I was just a useless burden to them, sure I could kill a few zombies but I always end up getting trapped, hence the reason I'm in a changing room. It was my first time being alone, why did I agree to splitting up? If I shot my gun off more zombies would come. Oh lightbulb! I always had smarts. What if I crawled under the stalls and run out when I got to the first one? I could deal with this zombie later and take out the rest, hopefully.
I got on the floor and got on my hands and used my legs to push off against the carpet and my hands to pull myself when I pushed off. I finally got to the first stall and looked under the door, no zombie. I grabbed a fire cracker and lit it with the lighter I kept in my shorts pocket. I threw it out of the changing rooms which caused a ding, it ended up behind the counter. I watched the zombie turn it's head to the ding and waited. Five, four, three, two...pop pop pop. A series of pops were heard from the counter and the zombie ran out causing another ding from the machine. I opened the door to the changing room I was in and zoomed out of there so fast I was probably a pink blur, okay not literally but you get the idea, I was going as fast as a jack rabbit on a summer day getting chased by a fox!
Run...run...run! My heart burned and my legs felt like they were on fire. I felt like I had been working out for days without rest. Okay maybe I'm over reacting but really I never run unless I'm in a hurry, like now for example.
My plan failed because the zombie saw me and came after me. It seemed like there was no other zombies other than oompa loompa over there. They probably all ran towards Kakuzu and Sasori when they were making noise attracting them. The fat ass and I probably didn't hear because the changing room was to far away.
"Ahh!" I gave an unattractive shriek when fattie made a lunge at my arm. I backed up into an ATM and whipped my arm around to the back of my weapons belt where I kept the only gun that made noise, a pocket knife and some kunais and shuriken that my brother got from a weapons shop he went to regularly.
Grabbing the gun I pointed it up and shot twice. I flinched back from the sound and shut my eyes hard, I wasn't used to the sound since the other three I have make no sounds when they are shot off. Wait why am I closing my eyes? Thats the last thing I want to do when there is a zombie in front of me.
"Ragh." I opened my eyes to the sound, nasty, it just "talked" and drool came out. Yep I just gagged. It moved slow and it was still a few yards away. I pushed off the ATM and ran towards the food court where Sasori and Kakuzu were hopefully. I raised my gun one more time towards the ceiling and shot it off. Please hear this. A few peices of the ceiling fell from the shot and dust dropped onto my head. I shook it off and I heard the few peices of debris on me fall to the ground.
There was no movement from down the hallway that led to the food court. I'm going to die aren't I? It felt like there was a warm bubble in my stomach, my throat felt warm and I was chocked up. Tears were brimming my eyes. No not here not now please!
"Sasori!" I screamed his name at the top of my lungs and kept running. I could see the tears flying behind me as I moved foward. My scream sounded like those horror movie screams where the girl is about to be killed and she screams out, but her scream isn't one thats scared it's one that is held with many emotions, fear, sadness, agony and most of all regret. It sounded right, I regretted not being strong enough to protect myself and the ones I loved. Those zombies earlier were the first ones I killed since the apocalypse happened. I wasn't strong enough, all I am is a burden!
More tears ran down my face as I thought of the thought of being such a burden to my brother and our friend. I'm always so behind, I can't do anything right! Maybe I should stop running and just die...it would help them. But no I don't want to die by that thing, I'll shoot myself...yes. It'll be quick and only a second of pain and-what was I saying? I didn't want to die! What is wrong with me?
"Sakura!" Sasori? I opened my eyes, I hadn't even noticed they were closed.
"Sakura, duck!" I saw Kakuzu point his gun, his hair was wet from sweat and he had a nervous expression. I closed my eyes hard as I dived down, hitting the floor a few seconds later, which by the way hurt my stomach, I heard nothing and saw NOTHING. Sometimes I wish those guns did make noise just so I could feel reassured that they had shot the guns off.
"Sakura crawl away!" Sasori? Why was he scared why was he-I opened my eyes and saw what I did not want to see. They had killed the zombie BUT there was at least TWENTY more coming. I saw a small clear phone booth and crawled towards it, I opened the door and locked myself in just as a zombie smashed into the booth door. YAMI? It was her but NOT her. Her long blue hair was matted with blood and her once flawless sun kissed skin was now rotted. Her beautiful golden eyes weren't beautiful anymore, they were crazed.
"Yami?" I screamed out her name and put my hand on the door.
"Sakura, no don't open that door!" I didn't listen to Kakuzu, all I wanted was Yami, I wanted to have hour conversations with her, talk to her about boys, shop with her, hug her, go to see movies with her. I wanted it all back.
Blood smeared the booth door as Yami's body slumped against the glass and slowly fell to the floor. What-what had I just witnessed? Yami...
"YAMI!" all she did was lay there unmoving, her lips were rotted, I had thought they were going to be blue but there were two reasons why that wouldn't happen. Number one Yami was dead to begin with, and second, the blue didn't appear until later after the person was dead for awhile. But she wasn't alive she was dead...times two.
I opened the booth door not even noticing the dozen, more than a dozen, zombies out there.
Xx Sasori's pov xX
After I watched Kakuzu kill my sister's friend, in front of her, I felt extremely bad. But she had to be killed, killed again, or Sakura would have opened the door and gotten well eaten. But I could tell Kakuzu just damaged her, I could tell she was in a daze, her eyes were fogged over and she had a blank expression, the only thing making her look normal for the situation was the tears steaming down her face.
I watched her, with her hand still on the handle, push the door open. It happened in slow motion almost, the door opening and the zombies, the dozen or so zombies turn their rotted heads towards Sakura, all their attention now on her. She crawled towards Yami slowly and thats when the first zombie lunged. Thats when I froze. Thats when Kakuzu ran. Thats when hell broke loose for the second time.
Xx Kakuzu's pov xX
I don't know what took over me after that zombie lunged, heck last thing I knew I was counting money in my head. But that zombie was not touching my friend. So I lunged forward and I knew I wasn't coming out of here alive. So I gave my best battle cry like heroes do in the movies when they go into some type of war they knew they weren't coming out of.
Xx Sakura's pov xX
I heard a scream or more like a battle cry? I looked up to see Kakuzu running towards me, and a zombie running towards me. It was like a movie, like slow motion.
"Kakuzu no leave me!" I yelled out to him but he made no attempt in stopping. "Kakuzu please no run away!" I yelled out to him more and tears ran down my face. How many more times would I cry today?
"Please...no." I sat there dazed as Kakuzu smirked to me, I knew what that smirk meant. It was a goodbye smirk. So this is what I get for being worthless huh?
Kakuzu takled the zombie and I watched as Sasori started shooting off to the zombies around him and I. I couldn't move...I was so scared. I watched as they battled them off, I saw Kakuzu get bitten multiple times but all he did was yell and fight them off. This isn't what I wanted this isn't what I intended. If I was stronger this wouldn't have happened. People say there is a light in all darkness...wheres the light here?
"Where is it?" I closed my eyes, I didn't want to see this anymore.
"Sakura please help me!" My eyes snapped open as Sasori's voice cut through the air like a sharp knife. He was right, if Kakuzu was going to die, he was going to die seeing I will take care of myself from now on!
I grabbed my katana from my sheath on my back, I kept my face blank and I held up my katana. I ran straight forward slashing my sword left and right, I saw a zombie and I put my sword through it and I repeated the process. I ran forward working my way towards Kakuzu. From now on it was my turn to take the lead and everyone else will be watching from the background!
I don't know how many zombies I slashed my sword through, all I knew was my arms were hurting and Kakuzu was straight ahead and only five zombies were in my way.
Moving to the left I took one out and ducked as the one behind it tried to grab at my head. I spun around it and slashed my sword across it's neck, the whole time never stopping my movements. I turned and spun on my heel as another zombie lunged for me, I just cut its legs off, I put my katana away and took out a kunai, I kicked off the previous zombies head using it to get above the next one. I brought the kunai back as I jumped up in the air.
Bringing my knees back I tackled the next zombie and brought the kunai to it's neck finishing it off. I turned my head to glance at Sasori to see how he was doing but all I saw was dead zombies and Sasori watching me, so I kept going.
The last zombie was on Kakuzu but Kakuzu was holding it back. I ran, I ran so fast to Kakuzu thinking that maybe just maybe if I got there fast enough I could...I could save him. I didn't know why but I didn't want him to go, to leave yet I knew he was already gone, past the point of no return.
When I got to Kakuzu and the zombie I took my kunai, stabbed the zombie, grabbed it hair and flung it aside. Sure I felt bad, that was a person once. A person who people loved at one point, a person who loved people back, who had a life. Forgive me for I have sinned and will sin many more.
"Sakura...I'm so proud." Kakuzu said trying to catch his breath.
"Kakuzu, Sakura!" I turned my attention to Sasori who stopped next to me and looked at Kakuzu with an unreadable expression to anyone besides himself and Kakuzu. And for the maybe fourth time in all my life I witnessed Sasori cry. I watched a single tear from Sasori's face fall upon Kakuzu's cheek. I saw Kakuzu's lip tremble and his eyebrows knit together. Sasori fell to his knees and we all kept quiet savouring the silence.
Kakuzu opened his mouth slightly, "Please live and get rid of all of these...BASTARDS...for me and everyone we've lost, you guys are the best." He coughed up a bit a blood and I felt tears rush from my already moist eyes.
"Make it quick..." Sasori looked at me and I understood. I watched him take out his gun and I quickly turned away and let the tears flow. I heard nothing, saw nothing and did nothing. I would have covered my eyes but the gun doesn't make noise.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned slightly and looked at Sasori's tear strained face and dull eyes. We took Kakuzu's body and made a proper grave and I laid some flowers down. We did the same for Yami. Then we left.
