A/N okay so just to get some
things straight before the story begins...Bella is not that clumsy
(she trips and stuff but not as much as she really would), second,
Bella and Edward are just best friends. Bella has always lived in
Forks. So has Edward. They are all human, well except the zombies
(obviously). Bella is a little out of character but not too much. If I missed anything then send me a review. Enjoy...please R&R
Oh
and I only wrote this story because my friend gave me an idea for it
and I told her I would .
I sighed. This time Edward noticed. "Bella, what's wrong? You've been acting strangely all day," I looked into his caring eyes. There was no way that I could live without him; he was my best friend. "It's just, nothing exciting ever happens around here anymore. I mean, the last thing that got the whole town active was that massive storm. Nothing interesting has happened since then! I'm bored."
Edward smiled. "Is that all
Bella? You know that storm was only two weeks ago,"
"Yeah,
I know. I am just so bored that I could strip down and run down the
street, totally nude! Entertain me Edward!" I sat up from my bed
and placed my hands under my chin and lent forward. Edward laughed
and smiled at me. "How would you like me to entertain you Bella? I will not get up and do anything in the nude like you would,"
I gave him an innocent look. "Edward! I was merely suggesting that we go do something, or you do something to entertain me. For example, start dancing like a monkey! Nothing involving you being in the nude!" Edward rolled his eyes at me.
"What!" I said again innocently. Edward got up and suggested that we go for a walk. "Fine, that might prove something interesting!" He laughed again.
We walked around the whole town. That was easy considering Forks is such a small town. The only thing
remotely interesting was a slight fog that was heading from La Push. I sighed when we reached my house again. "Well, that was fun!" I said sarcastically to Edward.
"Well, what else do you want
me to think of?" It was a rhetorical question so I just stalked
upstairs.
I turned on my computer and logged onto a quiz site. I tested Edward and myself on anything and everything. Things like, what ice-cream flavour are you, what Disney character are you and would you survive a zombie invasion. The zombie quiz was funny, Edward's answer said that he would pass with flying colours; mine said that I wouldn't survive without the help of a hero. I laughed and so did Edward. "Oh Edward," I said in an accent and pleading voice, "please come save me from the zombies, they're coming to get me Edward! Save me!" He laughed even harder and then we were both on the floor clutching our stomachs.
Each time we would do a new quiz we wouldn't know what it would be because we would click the 'random quiz' button. The next quiz was one on who you would marry. We did that quiz for both of us. It came up with the initial of the person you would marry. Mine was E and Edward's was a B, we started laughing again. I put on a seductive voice and said to him, "Hey Eddie, why don't you come over here and lay one on me then big boy..." I couldn't help myself after that, I cracked up laughing again.
Dad came home and walked up to see both Edward and I on the floor, clutching our stomachs and laughing hysterically. "I'm just going to back out of the room slowly, and ignore the strange sight on the floor." That made us laugh harder.
We laughed until we couldn't breathe. Edward left about an hour later and I was left to contemplate on the fact that maybe this was a sign. I shook it off. I would not let this stupid site make me get butterflies. I would not.
That night I dreamed of zombies who craved ice cream and loved watching the Disney channel. My dreams changed after that. They changed to Edward and me. We were sitting together like a happy couple, doing things that you would only see Mike and Lauren doing, (Mike and Lauren were a couple at our school, they were physical in public, and probably more physical in private. It was somewhat disturbing).
I woke up in a sweat. I would not let myself dream about Edward and I being 'together' as in dating. I wouldn't want to ruin our relationship.
The next morning I awoke to a sound of something hitting my window. I rolled over to face my window and saw that there was white pebble like things hitting it, and a heavy fog surrounding everything. I got out of bed and walked over whilst rubbing my eyes. It was hailing. Great. Absolutely perfect. Hail and fog, just what I wanted.
I changed into a pair of jeans and a blue t-shirt. I put on my tennis shoes and left my hair down. I never usually put make-up on but I decided on a little mascara and eyeliner. It couldn't hurt. I grabbed my book bag and headed downstairs to eat breakfast.
Charlie was sitting at the table reading the paper and drinking coffee. He mumbled a good-morning before heading off to work. I made myself toast and had some juice. I had just finished washing up my plate and cup when I heard Edward's car horn sound from outside. I grabbed my things and walked to the car carefully, trying not to trip over anything in the fog, at least it had stopped hailing.
"Hey, how's it going Bells?" Edward said as I sat down in his Volvo.
"Not to bad, just
tired. I didn't get a very good sleep last night. Stupid dreams
about zombies eating ice-cream and watching Disney channel." Edward laughed and I just looked out the window, Edward was driving
slow for him. I guess it was because of the fog. Neither of us
bothered to fill the silence after that. I liked that about Edward,
he didn't feel the need to bore people with endless chatter.
When we reached the school the fog had thinned and the teenagers were throwing ice at each other. I raced inside so I wouldn't be hit. I hated the cold, wet, snow. I shuddered at the thought of a snowball hitting my head and running down my shirt.
"What did you shudder for?"
"I
was just thinking about being hit by a snowball. Uhhh." I
shuddered again. Edward chuckled. We walked to first period.
Everyone was starting to ask about why the teacher wasn't here yet. It was almost half way through the lesson and she hadn't shown up. It was strange, the teacher was usually early. I decided that I
would go to the office and alert them that she wasn't here. I walked over to the office quickly, it was cold again.
When I walked into the office, the door was open, which was strange. They usually kept the door closed because they had a heater. As I stepped in slowly, I noticed that there was nobody in the office. I walked the couple of steps to the desk and saw that everything that was normally neat and tidy was strewn all over the floor.
I leaned over the desk to get a better look, maybe they were in a conference or something. as I leaned further over the bench I saw dark read streaks of what looked like blood on the floor. I stood back up straight thinking that maybe there was a terrible accident and they rushed to the hospital.
I walked around the desk to see if there was more blood. I almost screamed. I didn't because there might have been somebody still in the building. As soon as I saw Mrs. Stewart's body lying there all torn up, I freaked. I was silent, with shock or with smarts, I didn't know. I slowly walked down the hall to the offices. All the doors were open. I peeped in one and saw the principal lying on the desk. Dead.
I walked to the next room and saw three other teachers dead also. I was really scared, but I kept going. I was always the one who when we watched scary movies would say to everybody else that they always do what you wouldn't do it real life. I now felt like a hypocrite. I was doing exactly what they do in the movies, go towards the killer, not away from the killer. When I watched the movies, I would always say that I would have been long gone as soon as I saw the giant spider webs or what not. At least I had seen a lot of scary movies like this, I knew what to do.
As I turned around and headed to the other end of the building, I heard something. Except I didn't run, I didn't hide, I just kept walking towards where I was headed. It was a sound I couldn't describe. As I looked into the only door at the other end of the building, I almost screamed again.
There was three people-well not people but they had the bodies of people- they were leaning over another body. Our missing English teacher Miss. Sterling. They were eating her. They didn't see me. So I turn and ran. I ran all the way back to the main building. I knocked on every door, "What!" I heard a teacher yell, I turned and yelled back, "Get everybody in your class and get everybody else, tell them all to go to the gym NOW!"
I was going to pause and pull the fire alarm, but then I realised that might let the well 'zombies' that we knew. I ran into my classroom my face full of shock, fear and terror. The whole class looked at me and was waiting to hear what I had to say. "Get to the gym now, make sure everybody in the school is in there. NOW!" I screamed at them. They asked why but I shook them off.
"Bella, what's wrong? Why is
everybody going to the gym?" I looked at him with terror in my
eyes,
"I'm going to explain it to everyone at the same time." Edward nodded and we ran to the gym. "IS EVERYBODY IN HERE?" I
hollered over everybody's voices. Some of the teachers looked
around to see if all the teachers were hear, and the students made
sure their friends were here.
I got nods from everybody, "Miss. Sterling isn't here, I saw here come to school this morning, either is Mrs. Stewart, Mr. Miles, Miss. Richards, Mr. Samuels and Miss. Wakeley."
As soon as I knew, everybody was in the gym I ran to the door and locked it. I ran to all the other doors and locked them too. I grabbed everybody's attention again. "Why did you lock the doors when six people aren't here?" One of the teachers asked.
"Because, they're dead." The whole room gasped. People started yelling how can they be dead. Edward was by my side and blew a whistle that he had gotten from the storage shed in the gym. Everybody stopped at once.
"I went into the office to tell them that Miss. Sterling wasn't in class yet. Mrs. Stewart was under the front desk. The principle was in his office on his desk, the three other office ladies were in the last room. They were all dead, I didn't know why. Usually I would have run, but I didn't know what had happened and I wasn't coming back without a story. I heard something after I left the last room. I walked down the hallway, I don't know why but I did. I looked into the only room on the other side and saw something really odd." I stopped and everybody was staring at me in shock and anticipation. So I continued.
"Miss. Sterling was surrounded by three men like things, but they weren't human, I know that. They were eating her flesh. I think they were zombies. I know that sounds stupid but, well it's what I saw. Now somebody get me a phone so I can call the police." As soon as I said eating her flesh the room gasped, some people screamed. When I said zombies, everybody looked at me as if I was an idiot.
I was shit scared and I knew
everyone else was too. I called the police. "Hello, Forks police
station, Mary speaking, how may we assist you?"
"Hi, this is
Bella Swan, I right now am at Forks high in the school gym with
almost every other member of staff and students. I went into the
school office about 15 minutes ago and there was five people dead in
there. There was also another person dead and three people things
were eating her. I don't think they were human. We are all really
scared and need help!"
"Okay miss swan. We will get an
ambulance and all our force over to the school. If this is a joke
you will be in very serious trouble!" In the background of the
phone call, I heard Charlie going Bella, why is she calling. "Thank-you Bella, we will be there A.S.A.P" then she hung up. So
did I.
The group was looking at me so I told them that the police force would be here soon. Everybody settled down a little and started talking amongst themselves. I looked over at Edward who was staring intently at me.
"Bella, are you okay?" Edward
said while stepping over and wrapping his arms around me,
"Yes
Edward, I'm fine." We stood with our arms wrapped around each
other for about a minute. Then I decided that I would go look
outside through the window in the change room. I told the teachers
that everybody need to stay here. They listened to me and I felt
very in charge. I guess being the police chief's daughter pays
off.
Edward followed me down into the change rooms and we walked over the small window that faced the rest of the school. I didn't scream this time either. Edward gasped.
I told Edward that the three that were closest were the one that were eating Miss. Sterling. I realised that they had only bitten the other teachers. Which I guessed turned them into zombies as well. Edward got out his cell phone and informed the police about what we saw.
Then I realised that eight zombies were heading towards the gym. Where everybody was. I raced out Edward at my heals. "HEY EVERYBODY, KEEP QUIET THEY'RE COMING. THERE ARE EIGHT OF THEM. FIVE BEING TEACHERS. THEY ARE REALLY PALE WHITE AND HAVE BLOOD ALL OVER THEM. THEY ARENT SLOW AS THE MOVIES MAKE THEM OUT TO BE. SO SHUT IT!" I explained it to them quickly and told people to stay away from the doors. It was silent.
Everybody was scared and so was I. I think I could have wet myself. I think somebody actually did, considering they were now wearing old gym pants.
The sound we heard next was terrifying. It was a groaning sound coming from outside. A scratching sound on the walls and doors. Then we saw the doors being pushed against. I ran to the shed and grabbed the baseball bats, tennis racquets, cricket bats, softballs, baseballs, cricket balls, volleyball, badminton and tennis nets and ran back out to the people. I handed everyone something to use. Lucky we had a small school. There was just enough stuff for everybody. Somebody whispered to me, "Bella, why do we have nets? They are not going to stop zombies from attacking and eating us!"
I rolled my eyes. "I know that, it is for when the other people with bats, balls, and what not hurt the zombies, you wrap the net around them. But be careful we don't want them to bite you too." They made an O shape with there mouths.
I walked back over to Edward who had a two baseball bats in his hands. He handed one to me when I reached him. I motioned for him to follow me. We walked back to the little windows we look out of before.
This time I did scream, but it was short and quiet. There were zombies everywhere. The whole town I would say. Edward tried the police again, but all he got was a groaning sound from the other end. Once again we raced back to the group.
"Ohh, guys, we have a problem. There is a hell of a heap more than we first thought. They must have got the whole town. They are all out there, and there are more of them than us. Does anybody have the number for the military?" They all groaned, gasped, and yelped when they heard the news.
The door wouldn't hold up much longer, "OKAY PEOPLE, BRACE YOURSELVES!" I had always wanted to say that. Just not in these conditions. It was going to get ugly!
