Hello again, whew, It's my third English fan-fiction in K-ON fandom! Wow, a nice hat-trick, all of them was AU (Alternate Universe) too! I don't know why but I like to contribute more for this fandom~ even my English isn't that good~ I got this story inspiration after watching Is this a Zombie? And Merry the Dream-Eater. I'm not really a title-picker so I decide the title based on something that suddenly popped out in my mind.
This also my first story that centered on the two main characters here…I guess you will know who. And on a side note, this will be story with no future updates, well, that doesn't mean that I will not update this but I think this'll be discontinued. This idea just popped out of nowhere so...
Okay, to the story!
Status: Beta-ed by Musician74, your beta is super awesome, thanks!
Warning – Alternate Universe, OOC, implied pairings. And, I think it will be gore and blood.
One more thing, maybe I must include 'character death', too. Well, you'll see.

It's been two months since I met the necromancer
And it has been two months since I died
Yes, I'm alreadydead
In fact, I got killed
I was stabbed in the heart by an unknown being
My body was slashed into pieces and abandoned in the trash
But the necromancer revised my life
That's why I'm alive again
Well, although now
I'm a zombie.

/1 – Undead
It's an ordinary day for a high-school student; waking up from a good night's sleep, eating a homemade breakfast, while organizing your lunch box at the same time… preparing for a shiny morning of brand new days.
For this girl, this morning is the same as any other day. She lives in a small apartment near her school, because her actual home is far away from school. Today is the beginning of summer, so she wore her summer uniform. She's quite lazy to do her own house chores, but she's good at cooking. She has brown hair with bangs that reach her eyes, a pair of amber orbs and a tomboy-ish appearance.
"What will it be today?"a soft voice could be heard as said girl was busy chopping the vegetables. The source of the voice was unknown
The girl smiled, "Maybe a salad and kara-age, it's a well-balanced meal~"
"Since when do you care about your health?"the voice seemed to underestimate her.
"Ever since I died," her voice cracked, even though she said it while grinning sheepishly. "It's been two months, huh, necromancer?"
The atmosphere grew tense all of a sudden as the girl rearranged the content of her bento carefully. Rice, salads, and kara-age are in her lunch-box, neatly arranged.
"Do you want some of this?" she offered to the other 'girl'.
"Hey…I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I was just…uhh…toying around," the voice apologized.
"Nah, don't worry about that, necromancer~ I don't mind it, really! I'm really grateful you brought me back to life~" the girl laughed. "Come out then! Don't just hide inside my body because you're a necromancer!"
"Alright, as you wish."
"You just want to eat my food, right? Don't be shy~"
"I resent that, stupid!"
Blue light warped gently around the room. Slowly a tall, long raven-haired girl wearing a simple white dress showed up beside the brunette, holding a straw-hat. She's taller than the girl and looks more mature.
"It's time to go to school, stupid. I'll be here waiting for you as usual."
"Okay then, don't cook anything bad for your lunch okay? I'll be home at night again, okay? You know that zombies can't endure sunlight, right, right?"
"I know, I know, you think I'm as stupid as you?" the raven-haired necromancer grunted. "…You baka zombie."
"Yeah, yeah! You self-centered necromancer—AWW! Hey! Don't throw knives on me, even if I can't die!"
"I told you already! Just call me by my name. I don't like it when you call me 'necromancer'!" the raven-haired girl shouted. "Oh…she already left."
The station buzzed with people going to work or school. That apartment was the nearest place the brunette could afford to live in. The blazing summer heat is one of the things the girl must endure to the way to school when she walks from the station to school. Even when she wore a hooded jacket, it didn't help much.
"How long will I be able to keep this up?" the girl sighed."I know I wanna find my killer but to endure all of this is quite a job…"
"Tainaka-senpai?"
The girl turned around to see that a pigtailed girl with black hair greeted her. That girl somehow resembled a cat; she already knew who the girl is—it's one of her underclassmen, named Nakano Azusa. Tainaka Ritsu indeed is a famous student from the Sakuragaoka High School—the school she's attending now—as a school clown and the tomboy troublemaker. No one at her school doesn't NOT know who she is. Rumor has it, she also has a fan club and has fans all around the school. Also, it seemed that because of her boyish charm, numerous girls tend to fall in love with her—a risk of being famous.
Azusa is Ritsu's acquaintance because of some incidents—that's why they know each other—but Azusa ALWAYS politely declined to call Ritsu by her given name.
"Oh it's you, Nakano," the brunette smiled. "I told you just call me 'Ritsu',"
"But, Tainaka-senpai is famous—"
"I said call me 'Ritsu'-senpai!" Ritsu insisted.
"F-Fine…Ritsu-senpai…Don't call me by 'Nakano' then!" Azusa sweats dropped, feeling defeated. "So what's wrong? Aren't you hot? Why are you wearing a hooded jacket? It's really hot out here!"
"Uhh, well, I-I can't handle sunlight~" Ritsu sneered and hoped that Azusa would believe her. "That's why I'm wearing this hoodie~"
"It isn't like you senpai, but it can't be helped," the kouhai laughed. "Let's go then."
"What's wrong if I call you Nakano?" Ritsu asked.
"Well, uh, I-I don't want you to address me politely senpai—"
"Nah, I'm just teasing you by calling you that~"
Azusa was quiet for a few seconds… "Sorry. I take back what I said."
"I'm beat!" was the first thing Ritsu shouted when she arrived at her desk.
"Are you sick, Ritsu?" a brown-haired red-bespectacled girl approached her desk. "It's rare that you're avoiding sunlight. What's up?"
"Err, well, I have an affinity to sunlight, you see~" she jokingly said. "Why are you scolding me in this early in the morning, Nodoka?"
Another friend of Ritsu here is Manabe Nodoka, the student council president of the Sakuragaoka High School. She's a well-respected girl and has a very good reputation all over the school. Maybe she's not as famous as Ritsu is but she tends to be Ritsu's babysitter whenever the brunette gets into trouble.
"Regarding your recent detention—"
"W-What've I done wrong?" Ritsu stuttered. "Don't think that because you're our student council president you can do whatever you want! You're evil!"
"Ritsu, you already canceled your detention twice…" Nodoka sighed. "It's simple, you just need to stay in school until late afternoon while I watch over you—"
"I'll do it!" remember, Ritsu is a zombie—so she beamingly accepted.
Nodoka looked surprised, "O-okay?"
Meanwhile, on the high school roof top
"There are more necromancers here…huh?" the soft tone of voice that can be heard pierced the sky."It will be tough if they found out about us,"
"Y-yeah…" the girl crossed her arms. "I just want to help you achieve your dream, that's all."
"My, you're a good girl," the voice seemed thankful."Thank you."
"No need to thank me," she smiled warmly. "It's because of your help that I'm alive again."
"It's nothing…" the voice faded."It's part of my wish too."

To be continued.
Necromancer is a person...well, not really a Person, maybe, I could say that Necromancer is an immortal being in this fan-fic who can resurrect dead people back to life (in this fan-fiction), or they can make clones of living entity by magic skills called Necromancy. Basically, Necromancer is a person who can summon the spirit of a deceased person. This is my conclusion after seeing Eucliwood Hellscythe from Kore wa Zombie desuka and Jade Curtiss from ToA (even he's giving birth to clones not human).
The prologue is short, but I hope it's satisfying enough! Thank you for reading and see you next chapter-well, I think ^^
