Disclaimer; I don't own High School of the Dead. I only own my Oc. My good friend bamafelix owns the best friends of my Oc Makoto. Now on with the story!
Prologue
Makoto P.O.V
Its just one more day at school for me, Igou Makoto. School, that's a place where my friends and Onii-sama goes. Onii-sama, he's a kind guy. He's also got a girlfriend, Miyamoto Rei-senpai. Onii-sama...hmmm, where is Onii-sama? I put on my glasses and go down the stairs once getting dressed for the day.
"Onii-sama!"
I call for Igou Hisashi, my Onii-sama. He's got gray hair and brown eyes. We look similar, since he is my Onii-sama. But there's a difference in personality and appearance. He's calm and collected and just a genuinely good guy. While I am a nice person, I am kind of someone who is meek. I'm easily nerved by horror things like killer slashing movies.
I hate it when we have movie nights with Takashi-senpai and Onii-sama's girlfriend Rei-senpai. Although, most of the time, the atmosphere is...hard at best. Takashi-senpai and Onii-sama both have affections for Rei-senpai. Rei-senpai however chose Onii-sama and then...well, I don't think Takashi-senpai likes the decision.
Also while he is an average height and weight for someone his age, I'm more on the smaller side of the scale for my age. Plus my gray hair is a lighter version of his own, and it reaches my shoulders. And not forgetting that he's a second year at Fujimi High School, while I'm a first year. Also he's athletic while I'm not. But I do get good grades, better than Onii-sama's. So I guess we balance one another out. I'm smart, and he's strong. A good combo!
"Otouto! Come here, Rei-chan is here."
Ooh, Rei-senpai is here! I quickly rush and see her with Onii-sama. Onii-sama and Rei-senpai have been together for awhile now. She's a nice girl and always has a smile.
"Hello Rei-senpai. Good morning."
I bow respectfully to Rei-senpai. She smiles sweetly at me. Rei-senpai's smiles are always great.
"Hello to you, Makoto-kun!"
"Hehe, are we walking to school together, today?"
I ask because my other friends are walking with me to school. My friends Muramoto Haru-chan. And Takashiro Kazuma-kun. Like me, they are first years and my best friends. We are always together. We are best friends after all!
"Yeah, that's right Otouto."
"Is it fine if Kazuma-kun and Haru-chan walk with us also?"
I ask them both. I don't want them to be like un-ok with it.
"Yeah, silly. Its fine. Anyway, eat breakfast."
"Ok Onii-sama!"
So we all sit down to a normal breakfast. I love breakfast time especially when Onii-sama and Rei-senpai eat with me also. Sometime later, a knock at the door could be heard. I go towards the door and answer it...
"Makoto-kun!"
"Hey hey Makoto-kun."
My friends Haru-chan and Kazuma-kun. Haru-chan is looking her usual happy self. With her medium length unkempt black hair and her blue eyes, which makes her look quite androgynous so sometimes she can dress as a boy and get away with it. But she is also a pretty girl if she wears girl clothes.
My other best friend Kazuma-kun. He is an average height and weight of a teenager his age. He has unkempt black hair but he always wears a red beanie. And I mean, always. He never takes it off. No matter where we are or what time of year. Summer, spring, winter or autumn, its always there. Maybe its glued on. He also has dark blue eyes. I have just realized something, I'm the only one with different coloured eyes than my best friends. They both have a type of blue eyes while my own are dark yellow.
"Hello! Please come inside!"
"Cool~"
"Yeah, I'm tired."
Haru-chan turns to Kazuma-kun with a disappointed expression on her face.
"You better not be thinking about skipping class to hang out in the schools infirmary!"
"Hehe...how'd you figure me out?"
Haru-chan and I face palm. That's what he does most days.
"Because...Doctor Boobs inhabits that place!"
Doctor Boobs. Shizuka-sensei, the schools ditzy nurse. She is hot though, I will give her that. But she really is...ditzy. I've heard she is a good nurse, but I've never personally had a hands on experience with the ditzy nurse otherwise known as Shizuka-sensei.
"Don't call her Doctor Boobs, Haru-chan~ She's actually a nice person."
"She might be nice, but she has a chest that is freaking huge! How can anyone compete with those melons!?"
"Compete? Who'd be competing with her?"
Kazuma-kun asks with a raised eyebrow. Haru-chan waves her hand in front of her face innocently.
"W-Well, whoever might have a crush on the person who has a crush on her I suppose. A-Anyway, Makoto-kun! Let us in! Its cold out here!"
I step aside and let them in. They do the usual greetings with senpai and Onii-sama. Well, today is going to be an ordinary day, that's for sure. That's how I like it actually. Just a peaceful quiet day...!
"Onii-sama~ Are we eating lunch together, or are we just...I mean, are you eating with Rei-senpai again alone today?"
"Uh, we are eating together for lunch, Bakato."
I loathe that name. Bakato. That's all Haru-chan's and Kazuma-kun's fault! Calling me Bakato! They are Bakato! I'm not Bakato! Uwah! Someone come and save me from this morning! It is already embarrassing!
...Sometime later, we get to school. Onii-sama and Rei-senpai parted with us along the way. It was a little normal walk to school. Just the usual banter. But now it is just Kazuma-kun, Haru-chan and myself walking to class as always...
"Hey, what lesson do we have this morning?"
Kazuma-kun asks. Haru-chan turns to him with an angry face.
"Why? Gonna skip lesson are you?"
"Depends what it is."
He answers nonchalantly. Haru-chan takes a small breath before answering Kazuma-kun's sort of question.
"Maths. That's the lesson we have now Kazuma-kun. You better not skip it either."
"I'm skipping."
Eh? She tells him not to skip, yet he says he is? Kazuma-kun turns on his heels and starts walking away! Haru-chan goes up to him and grips him by the collar!
"I just said, no skipping! And when I say no skipping, I mean you skip and I will fucking kill you!"
Ehehe, she means well, I think. Sometimes she is like this. But she is actually a very sweet caring girl. She has trouble hating people, even if some people deserve it. I'm pretty sure she has a crush on Kazuma-kun. By the way she acts. Like with Doctor Boobs...I mean, Shizuka-sensei. I think she's jealous that Kazuma-kun hangs out in the nurses office, rather than being with us in class.
"Ehehe, its not like maths is important."
"It is important! Everything we do in school is important!"
"Well, if that's the case, then isn't napping important for me also?"
Haru-chan and I make confused faces. How is napping important? He clarifies.
"Haru-chan. You said "Everything we do in school is important!" So, if I nap in school, doesn't that mean it is important?"
"Eh...he's got you there Haru-chan."
I comment from the side. She sends a glare my way before looking at Kazuma-kun again.
"Don't be a smart ass. And don't side with him Makoto-kun!"
She scolded me! Uwah! I feel like crying! When these two get into it, I like staying out of the way. I bow my head in shame.
"Sorry Haru-chan."
"You're forgiven. As for you Kazuma-kun. You better march your ass to class, this instant or your ass will be meeting my good friend mister shoe! And he happily lends me his services!"
"Eh? But maths is so boring...uwah. And don't hit me."
"Even if it is boring as hell, we still need to attend the lessons! Skipping is a no no Kazuma-kun. Now do what Haru-chan tells you to do and start walking to class like a good boy would."
"What about if I don't like being a good boy~?"
Haru-chan's eyes glazed over with anger and slapped his head! Ooo, I bet that hurt! I pray for your safety Kazuma-kun! Haru-chan in anger mode is scary! I don't want to be hit by her!
"That's what happens in the end! You want some of this!?"
"Ehehe, what if I say yes~?"
"You pervert! I didn't mean that you sick bastard! And in front of the innocent Makoto-kun~? It will rape his poor mind~"
"D-Don't say r-rape please."
I say to get their attention. I don't like the word rape. As rape can happen to anyone, not just girls...
"Uh...sorry Makoto-kun. I forgot you don't like that since what nearly..."
"Don't! I don't want to think about such things again, ok?"
Haru-chan nods at me and turns back to Kazuma-kun...who's disappeared!
"Where the hell did he go!?"
"...Shizuka-sensei's infirmary?"
She puts on a sad yet angry face. She then growls a little in annoyance.
"That bastard...if I didn't love him so damn much then I would've bumped him off years ago!"
"B-Bumped him off? This isn't a gangster movie."
I deadpanned her. The way she said it then was...hehe, she wants to bump off one of her best friends...yeah. She isn't bumping him off today, right?
"I'm going to go gangster on his ass the next time I see him! I will put a cap in his ass! Anyway...I suppose we should be good children and get to class."
"That's what good children do. If you're naughty, you go to Hell, but if you're good..."
"God brings you to Heaven! Yeah yeah, we've heard it all before, right Makoto-kun?"
I nod at her in agreement with what she said. I've heard that from people around the school before. And apparently, it is kind of the schools motto, maybe. Not the official one, but the schools one nonetheless.
"Class does seem kind of boring though, don't you think?"
"I couldn't agree more. But, we still have to go. Even if it is something boring. Lets go my little buddy."
"Don't call me the little buddy! Uwah! Haru-chan's evil!"
She huffs at me as I smirk a little.
"I'm not evil! But that Shido-sensei bastard is evil."
"Hmm, I couldn't agree with you more Haru-chan. Lets get to class."
We agrees and we head to class. Along the way, I see Takagi-senpai...she's really pretty. But, she is kind of mean also. But again, she is pretty and I've seen her be nice sometimes.
"G-Good morning Takagi-senpai!"
I bow politely and say a greeting at the same time.
"Eh...oh, right. You are short stuff. Hey short stuff."
"Don't call him short stuff ape!"
Haru-chan defended me. Takagi-senpai glares at Haru-chan for the ape comment.
"Don't call me an ape, ape!"
"I'm not the ape! Your the ape! Mega Takagi Saya-senpai ape! Ape!"
"Stop calling me an ape you bitch!"
"Ooh, I'm not a bitch, ape."
Takagi-senpai rolls her eyes at Haru-chan who narrows her own eyes.
"Hehe, see you later."
With that, Takagi-senpai walked away to class, I presume anyway. Hehe, Takagi-senpai smelled good today...
"I still can't believe you have a crush on her, of all people!?"
I do a spit take at her! Having a crush on Takagi-senpai!?
"I-I don't have a crush on senpai! And shush, she might still be around!"
"Hehe, why would you care if you don't have a crush on her?"
"..."
I stay silent and blush furiously. How am I supposed to reply to such things? I guess I got caught up in the drama. Haru-chan's fault! She's to blame for this!
"Hehe, as I thought."
"W-Well, you have a crush on Kazuma-kun!"
Her face turns red and she looks away shyly.
"S-So...I don't! Stop pretending things like that are real Makoto-kun! Uwah! As if I'd have a crush on that narrow minded slacker! He's a baka and has always been one! Anyway. We seriously need to go to lessons! Kazuma-kun's so getting an earful when I see him next. Hanging around Doctor Boobs..."
"Because you're flat chested right...oops..."
She pins me to the wall! Uwah! Don't kill me! I don't want to die right now! I'm still young! She has a mean look in her eye. She's got the evil eye right now! Don't use your evil powers on me!
"Haru-chan! Calm down! Please!"
"Don't call me flat chested again, understand!?"
I nod weakly. I don't want to be hurt again. She drops me to the floor. Ooh thank God. I didn't want to die today. Hehe, die today. Sounds like something out of a horror movie to me.
"Lets go Makoto-kun~"
Acting all sweet now isn't going to do anything Haru-chan. We go towards class while Haru-chan keeps commenting about Kazuma-kun not being here. But I keep thinking about Takagi-senpai...I shouldn't think about her. She's pretty and I'm sure she likes someone who is more...taller than I am. Someone taller and better looking most likely...Takagi-senpai...
"Ooh~ Thinking about Takagi-senpai, Makoto-kun~?"
"N-No! Anyway, you keep mentioning Kazuma-kun. Why don't you just ask him out if you want to be with him?"
"...That would mess up our friendship with one another."
"Eh? What do you mean?"
"Hmmmmm, how to explain this to Bakato?"
I really hate that name. Bakato! I'm not even stupid! I'm smarter than her. My test scores prove as much.
"If I actually started dating Kazuma-kun, I'm not saying I want to but, I wouldn't want you to be the third wheel. No, more like I wouldn't want you to feel like you was the third wheel."
"Don't be silly Haru-chan. You shouldn't put your own happiness on hold because of me. If you want to date Kazuma-kun, and he wants to date you, then what's the problem? I wouldn't feel like the third wheel."
"Even saying that now, you might feel differently when we start doing things couples do."
I wave off her worries as we near the classroom.
"Don't be weird Haru-chan. I'm not going to step in your way of happiness. B-Besides, I will get a girlfriend one day..."
"Yeah, Takagi-senpai~"
"Uwah! Don't be so embarrassing all of a sudden! Can you imagine us as a couple? She'd be like "Get me my phone!" And I would be like "Yes Takagi-senpai!" I would be her servant, maybe."
"Yeah, but you want to be her servant. Come on, you've been crushing on her since day one here. Whenever she's around, you blush furiously and look all shy. Hey, just had the best idea in the universe!"
I sweatdrop and ask her the question.
"Whats the best idea in the universe?"
"Well...I will just have to get Takagi-senpai to be your girlfriend, then I will be able to ask out Kazuma-kun without feeling guilty about it. I mean, its win-win, right? You and your ape and me and my slacker!"
"Don't call Takagi-senpai an ape!"
"Whys that Makoto-kun~? Upset that I'm calling your future girlfriend an ape?"
Future girlfriend? Takagi-senpai as my future girlfriend? She would probably yell at me all the time to stop being so meek. Hehe, I can see it now actually.
"S-She isn't my future girlfriend at all..."
"No, you just want to have sex with her, right?"
I do another spit take at her! She comes off as a weirdo sometimes! Don't be a weirdo Haru-chan!
"Geez! Don't be so blunt about such things! And no, I don't want to just have sex with her! If I wanted to be with Takagi-senpai, then it would be in a relationship way. I mean, could you have sex with someone you aren't in a relationship with?"
"Lets find out, shall we?"
She sends me a wink! Eh!? She then strokes my arm! I instinctually pull my arm back as she giggles.
"Hehe, your first touch must be from Takagi-senpai. Your first kiss, your first sexual experience...her huge breasts seem to have your interest, don't they?"
"D-Don't be a pervert Haru-chan! A-And I have b-been kissed before."
"What? By that whore bitch from a few months ago? That doesn't count as she's sick and twisted. Honestly, trying to take advantage of you like that. Good thing Kazuma-kun, Igou-senpai and I came along, or she actually might've raped...sorry, I didn't mean to mention it. But, I still can't believe she didn't even get any punishment for what she did! She sexually harassed you when you clearly said you didn't want to do things with her. Slag better keep her distance or I will introduce her to Mr and Mrs fist."
She kissed her left and right fist. But, she's right. That bitch did try and...rape me after I said no. She did all sorts of things, and I couldn't fight back as she got her friends to hold me down. If it wasn't for Haru-chan, Kazuma-kun and Onii-sama then...I might've been raped that day. I never want to experience things like that again.
"W-We should go to class now."
"Right you are Makoto-kun. Lets go my handsome friend."
Hehe, with that we make our way to class. And sit in our respective seats. My seat by the window, Haru-chan's next to mine and Kazuma-kun's seat would be in front of my own, if he had bothered to show up. I notice Haru-chan looking at Kazuma-kun's usual seat with anger and annoyance and sadness all wrapped up into one.
The class starts sometime later. As the class is going on, I notice something out of the window. When I looked fully, I let out a gasp!
"Aah!"
I jumped up from my chair also. The thing in front of my eyes can't be real, yet I'm seeing it with my own eyes. Someone...how can someone do such a thing!? Haru-chan lets out a little breath and asks me calmly yet timidly.
"W-Whats wrong, Makoto-kun?"
I face her and point out of the window at the same time.
"C-Come and look at this Haru-chan, quickly!"
She nods and comes over to the window. She looks around, until I point at the schools gates. She lets out a horrified cry! She's shocked, I'm shocked. Everyone will be shocked. This isn't normal!
What's happening is, someone is getting eaten! Something like out a horror movie! Cannibal? Whatever is happening is something scary! Someone is actually getting eaten...and there's more coming! There's people trying to get into the school! Ugh! What's happening!?
"Kazuma-kun! Makoto-kun! We need to get Kazuma-kun!"
"And Onii-sama! And Rei-senpai and Takashi-senpai and Takagi-senpai! We need to leave, Haru-chan!"
"Y-Yeah, lets go!"
We grip one another's hands and run out of the classroom, then everyone starts screaming! Ooh shit! And I thought this was a normal day! Now, cannibals are at the school! Onii-sama, please be safe...don't die!
And that's the first chapter of The Zombies Apocalypse! The pairings for the story...well, that will be revealed next chapter. Thanks for reading!
