Infected II: Survival

Summary: Sequel to Infected. Due to the zombies suddenly having a steak of evolving, they can no longer be controlled by the superior beings. Now, due to their new intelligence, they crave to eat the people who have special abilities- meaning Hibari is extremely pissed off when he had to protect himself and the last surviving human of Japan, Sawada Tsunayoshi. 1827, 10069. AU. 2YL.

Note: Really, it should have been Tsuna, Gokudera and Yamamoto that were the last surviving humans, but the other two have fled for Italy, since Gokudera is Italian.

Anyway, the making of this sequel was actually started when I was writing Crystal Heart, meaning I wrote this bit by bit in the spare time I had left, which is why it will be longer than the first part of the story.

Please note, this story will only be updated weekly, not daily. Thanks for taking the time to read this. For additional content, and my way of showing I appreciated every review I get, I'll be replying to each and every review right here.
Enjoy.


Prologue

There was an odd silence as Tsuna kneeled down, eyes wide in shock and horror. Laying on the ground, covered in blood, was Hibari Kyoya, crimson eyes half open yet lifeless and cold, as was his body. Around him, Mukuro and Byakuran were fighting hordes of zombies, Chrome sitting down to weakness and fatigue.

Yet none of it mattered to him. He didn't care if they were protecting him. Hibari Kyoya was the person he wanted to protect him. Not that he had anything against his friends, but... this was something he never expected to see.

Hibari was dead. The person who actually jumped in front of him and got torn apart was now laying there, drenched in blood and eyes slowly going back to the onyx colour they once were over two years ago. Tsuna could feel his heart clenching as he shook Hibari, trying to get him to waken, yet he didn't move. If this was a joke, then it wasn't funny. Not funny at all.

He bit at his lip hard and then clenched his eyes shut, before he started crying loudly, catching the attention of zombies that were intent on trying to chew on Mukuro, their blackened eyes glinting before they ran towards him, gurgling and howling while hissing words promising pain and misery. Tsuna could only raise his head and then stare at them, not even bothering to move.

Without Hibari at his side, nothing meant anything to him any more. His life was practically over without Hibari by his side. Somewhere internally, he wished that this was only a nightmare- a nightmare that would have to end soon enough. His honey brown orbs opened slowly before he looked up and stared at a female zombie whose rotten hands reached out for him, blood splattering over him as she gurgled in delight, clearly happy that she would get him as he meal.

Of course, other zombies wanted to eat him too, so there ended up being a fight between zombies on who would get to eat him- it was odd for Tsuna to watch, since it appeared to be their own little language they were speaking. He watched as flesh got torn apart and weak bones cracked- watched as hair got torn from their skulls and eyes gouged out.

He could hear crying and shouts of his name, yet he didn't react to them. He felt numb all over, tears streaming down his cheeks as his attention turned back to Hibari, before he kneeled down and hugged him gently, as if unconsciously trying to protect his body from harm. He knew the zombies would move to chew on Hibari after he was dead- that was the thing upsetting him. He didn't want Hibari's body to be devoured. Hibari... his body was too beautiful to be tarnished by such creatures.

There was a sudden yank, causing Tsuna to get pulled away, making his head snap up as Byakuran suddenly lifted him and slung him over his shoulder, looking round himself before he ran away, not even bothering to pick up Hibari's corpse.

Tsuna screamed loudly and kicked out, refusing to leave Hibari's body behind-

But then he woke up, panting and terrified looking, only to be greeted by silence.
