READ REALLY IMPORTANT IF YOU'RE A READER OF THIS NOW!
Hey people! ^^ well i said that i was gonna need like 3-4 oc and now i'll have my arms open to 8! i know a big number! but i want to give a colorful 'ending' to them. MWUHAHAHA! don't worry i won't kill them off but i'll start a popularity poll for the oc's to decide there fates! the lowest scoring oc will be...DUN DUN DUN! possibly (most likely) killed. V.V yup. i need male roles too so be really creative! all the entries i have are female! i've only got one official oc and one i'm considering! the first 5 chapter will feature an all out disaster with the original HOTD gang( minus Kohta :"c) and a group of oc survivors of my own! though they will all have a pretty tragic end. i love these oc's i find them so interesting and i might make the ones that survive remeet with the new members of the gang. these five chapters are actually just a stall until i get more reveiws and oc entries. it WILL be TakashixSaya. your oc can involve a love up the oc's for the next five chapters will be...too long! i'll do that at the end of the chapter. i'll start the popularity poll at the end of the five chapters when i have the oc's decided. this will most likely be sorta of dark and involve gore so prepare for this hell of a ride im 'bout to send you on!
LET THE MAGIC BEGIN! *GRABS POPCORN AND ENJOYS SHOW*
"Saya!"
"Huh?"
"Come on. We got to go they're coming." I whispered. It'd been two weeks since Kouta had died and Saya hadn't been faring well. Currently we're going to an abandoned hospital where some survivors were hiding. Since we hadn't found any method of transportation we were walking. I was at front, watching out for Miss Shizuka, who was carrying a sleeping Arisu, was Rei and guarding a shaking Saya was Saeko. Before long we arrived at our destination. Unfortunately for us it surrounded by zombies and thanks to the screams that could be heard someone was being eaten. As we all got in stance one came at me and like always I hit it in the head. Things rushed quickly and the crowds of zombies were diminishing until Saeko screamed. It appeared she'd gotten grabbed by a zombie. This also meant that Saya was defenseless. I stopped myself from helping them as a part of me expected a gunshot to be heard and the both of them being helped by Kohta. But there was no Kohta. Rei came in action and helped Saeko killing it and pulling Saya along. I grabbed Miss Shizuka and went ahead. When we arrived at the entrance countless corpses' surrounded us. Inside the building it was empty and only the stench of blood filled the air. The stark white stairs creaked and the flashing lights only added to the eeriness. Miss Shizuka clung to my right arm and luckily Arisu was still snoozing away (lucky), as my left clutched my bat. On top a large hall awaited and on each side countless doors. I took one side as Rei and Saeko the next and we quickly opened one by one until we saw the survivors in about the twenty seventh room. A teenager probably 17 or 18 with black hair in a braid, wearing a blue sweater and a black skirt and converse had a small boy about 4 in her arms. On the hospital bed a young guy who looked to have a couple broken ribs looked ecstatic to see us. Curled up next to him was another girl with short scruffy brown hair and a school uniform and leaning against the wall was a buff looking guy dressed in a trench coat who in his hand had a rifle and sitting on the floor next to him was a another teenage girl with the same school uniform as the other. She had bright red hair in a ponytail with a bandage on her left cheek, various earrings and shockingly holding onto about 8 cartridges that I presumed where the guys. The black haired girl spoke first introducing the rest.
"Thank you for coming. It was a miracle our message got through the radio and you heard it! My name's Inari Saito and this-" she said nudging the child in her arms. "Is Tohru Saito, my son." She said revealing a small boy with ebony hair, a green shirt and dark blue shorts.
"YOUR SON!" she looked so young…..
"Yes." She said frowning. "My son. I had him when I was 15 OKAY! I'm 19, geez." She said frustratedly. "That" she said pointing over to the guy on the bed. "Is Takeo Matsumoto. And the girl next to him is Fuyu Inoue. That guy against the wall is Shujin Yukimura and the girl by him is Akaya Etoi."
"I'm Takashi Komuro."
"My name is Rei Miyamoto. Nice to meet you all."
"My name is Saeko Busujima. A pleasure to meet you and your son Saito san as well the rest of you." She said bowing.
"I'm Saya Takagi."
"I have a question….how did you all escape? I mean we had a hard enough time but you all look like regular people so how!" Rei said intriguingly.
"Well….during the outbreak I was in the downtown court and hid in the supply closet. Then I bumped into that guy-" she said pointing towards Shujin. "He helped me and my son and we came here" she explained.
"I was doing a job – I'm a hit man- and I noticed that there was lots of commotion and I also noticed people were eating people. I rushed around to get a better grip of the situation. Then I saw that 'they' weren't human. I found Miss Inari and her child and brought them here as I'd found out it was pretty barren. I saw Fuyu and Akaya Chan running from the rooftop with my binoculars and shot the ones that were following. With a couple of signals I told them to head towards the smoke and with time they made it here." Enlightened Shujin.
"I just woke up here. They didn't hurt me I guess because I was asleep and they didn't notice me." Said Takeo.
"Yeah. Those things only react to sound." Added Takagi.
"WHAT ARE THOSE THINGS? WE'RE GONNA DIE AREN'T WE!" it seemed the red head named Akaya was much shaken.
"How long have you guys been here? This epidemic has proceeded for at least 2 months now." Asked Miss Shizuka.
"We've been like this for like 7 weeks, I think…." Said the other girl softly as it seemed she had awakened.
"What's going on…?" said Arisu wearily awakening too.
"Oh! Good morning sleepy head!" greeted Miss Shizuka cheerfully.
"Ooh~! New people yah!" she chirped and ran around the room inspecting the group. She halted in front Inari and was delighted to meet Tohru. Before long the two ran out of the room giggling.
"Tohru! Get back here!" Said Inari as she panicked.
"We'll go watch them." Shujin along with an unsure Akaya who trudged along beside him.
Silence filled the room and awkwardness filled the spaces it left out.
"So….what's going to happen now?" asked surprisingly Takeo. "You guys gotta have some sort of plan! I mean those things out there have destroyed everything we know! I'm pretty my girlfriend and brother have turned into hamburgers for those freaks! So tell me….what's left?" he asked urgently.
"I….I don't know….." I was at loss of words I really didn't know what to do. Why was this happening anyway? In the bible it claims that god won't end us by drowning us, so….did he take his sweet time to come up with this? DID HE THINK, "HEY I'LL FINISH OFF HUMANITY BY LETTING IT BE EATEN OUT?" it was really a matter of question.
"We've found out that there is other survivors and that a military base has been offering refuge and that they're flying them out to 8 small islands that have remained unaffected by this. We should find a way to get to it. The base is on the outskirts of Tokyo." Said Rei smiling. "There's hope." She looked to be about to cry.
"Really! That's amazing…." He exclaimed. Thick tears started trickling down his tanned face and Fuyu pat his back eyes closed and seemingly ready to sleep again. "It's okay..." she said lazily.
"Today's Wednesday we'll leave Friday. We'll need that long to find provisions and get prepared to head out." Said Saeko as she grabbed her sealed katana and walked out of the room. "I saw a cafeteria this place might have some edibles I'll go look you guys stay here and don't leave unless necessary."
For the next 20 minutes we spent it talking casually and that was probably the calmest we'd been in a while. Turns out Fuyu was quite the sarcastic girl and Takeo was really naïve and kind. We laughed and Rei cried a little because Takeo reminded her of….him…yeah… before long Shujin came back with Arisu atop his shoulders squealing like crazy and he blushed like a tomato and Akaya was being pulled by Tohru. Saeko then came back with a table cloth bunched up and inside it were candy bars, water bottles, granola bars, sandwiches, apples, juice and some cold pizza. We ate a rather 'unique' dinner and it was all laughter and smiles. Though to my dismay Saya remained quiet and still. As night approached we all exhausted decided it was time to call it a night. Rei would stay awake then me, then Saeko and so on. I smiled as I tried to find a comfortable position on the small hospital chair. At my feet rested Inari wrapped in a colorful quilt holding her son close to her chest, Takeo lay and turned to the right while Fuyu was sprawled freely over the free space in the small bed, Rei and Saeko were sitting in the chairs next to me deeply asleep, Shujin was exhausted and had passed out and was under the bed arms behind his head and Arisu cuddling next to him, and Miss Shizuka was against the wall snoring lightly. My chestnut eyes landed on Saya and I frowned. It'd been little less than a week since Kohta died and she was still being torn apart. I knew he meant a lot to her. It caused something to stir in me. How could someone who wasn't among us cause so much genuine emotion to spur in her? While on the other hand I'd always been here and all I could do was anger her. I should work on that. Her mental state was diminishing and I knew that if something wasn't done she'd go crazy. She'd already lost her parents and now she lost him who was her last pillar. I should've expected nothing less than her tumbling but I didn't.

The days went by and shortly arrived Friday. It was 6:23 and we were all getting up and eating breakfast. Arisu and Tohru decided to go play and like usual Shujin and Akaya followed.
"What school do you attend? Me and Akaya Chan used to attend the 'Aki no Bara' Private girls academy." Said Fuyu happily.
"I used to go to Fujimi high school."
"Ahhh. A cousin of mine used to go there." She commented off handedly nodding.
"How old are you any way Fu-AHHHH!" a scream interrupted Rei and many others followed. What the fuck was going on! No way….had one of them actually gotten into the hospital. It wasn't impossible….but who…Oh shit.
"TOHRU!" Inari grabbed the pistol on the table and rushed out. In a panic state I grabbed my bat and chased after her as fast as I could. As soon as I descended down the stairs I almost tripped and was unable to stop and bumped into Inari who'd stopped. As I stood up I was shocked. While bumping into Inari I'd pushed her into a crowd of them. Across the crowd on the other stairs Akaya and Shujin held the kids and tried to keep them quiet as they tried to make their way up.
"INARI PLEASE DON'T SHOOT!" she ignored me and fired 6 bullets dead on killing six of them but as the six fell down 10 turned around and came her way and the ammo was spent. I braced myself and killed the first three. Blood flew and my shirt and face where drenched in red. I grabbed Inari's arm and dragged her up.
"Inari are you okay! Did you get bit!" I asked anxiously.
"No…"she responded quietly. "But….I twisted my ankle. I can't walk." My eyes widened realizing how bad things had turned out. It….it wasn't supposed to be this way! We were gonna leave and evacuate! We…we were gonna be safe! Saya would become happier and Inari would be able to raise her son safely. Shit…shit…SHIT! I pulled Inari and charged at the crowd and somehow got over to the second staircase.
"Hurry, hurry, HURRY!" I yelled and Shujin and Akaya ran up as fast as possible. 'They' increased their numbers and before long they were steps away from us. I pushed myself to go faster and went in front of Shujin and Akaya running down the hall. At the end I laid Inari under a small stair case leading to the roof. I left a 'Rugger Mark 2' in her hand. Cold sweat ran down my forehead and I wasn't really sure if this was the right thing to do.
"Stay quiet and only fire this if they get close." I ordered her and her greyish blue eyes shined with worry despite it all she nodded quietly.
"I'll come back. I promise."
I returned to help Shujin but another scream forced me to go faster again. I stood shocked atop the staircase (something common now a day). Akaya was screaming desperately as she was pulled by them.
"SHUJIN GO! PLEASE TAKE TOHRU!" her brave words contradicted her crying expression. She closed her eyes and screamed again as they began biting. Shujin handed me Arisu and Tohru getting the message I took them and ran back to the rest of the guys in the room. I ran as fast as I could but I still heard the gunshot.
Ħ ! ● ● ɖ'
'They' filled the halls and time was running out. I arrived in the room and everybody looked at me expectantly. There was really no reason to break it easy since I really couldn't so I decided to be blunt.
"They're coming. Akaya was attacked and died. Inari was hurt and I left her hiding she's got a gun she'll be fine. We've got Tohru and Arisu and Shujin is okay. We've got to keep moving. And we have to get out of here now."
"Akaya! No way….Akaya….she's….she …SHE CAN'T BE DEAD! YOU HYPOCRITE! YOU THINK YOU'RE SUCH A HERO FOR SAVING THEM BUT WHY COULD'NT YOU SAVE HER! HUH? WAS SHE NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO LIVE ON!" demanded Fuyu who had lost her composure and was now sobbing uncontrollably.
"That's not what I meant…." She grabbed a crow bar from under the bed and started walking out. Noticing she was planning to leave I stopped her but she easily got out of my grip as she neared the door Saeko jerked her back making her face her stern glare.
"If you go out there you will be killed. I understand that you feel saddened by losing Akaya but don't be stupid! Live on for her! She would've wanted that." She said her voice shaking.
"I don't want to live on. There is no reason for me to live on. I….I promised to never abandon her. That includes in death!" She swung the crowbar and Saeko dodged it, in doing so releasing her and she ran out.
"Takashi, shouldn't we go after her!" asked Takeo worriedly.
"No. it was her decision. We mustn't waste our own lives for her." Said Saya who was now standing up firmly with her bag full of medical supply and food ready to go and the most composed I'd seen her in a while. I couldn't help but smile. I always knew Saya was strong. Probably stronger than all of us combined!
"She's right! Let's go." We made a plan and headed out. Shujin was in charge of taking care of Miss Shizuka who would carry Tohru (who we sedated along with Arisu), Saya would carry Arisu and she would be protected by Rei and Takeo would be helped by Saeko. Although I'm not too religious I still took a couple minutes to pray. I hoped we all lived through this, if we did I bet the rays of tomorrow's light will look grander than ever.
hey! did you enjoy? hope you did! i will upload the next five chapters regardless if people comment or not but i won't upload the sixth featuring the chosen oc's until i get at least 12 reveiws. thanks to 'ForgottenCharacter' who's followed this story from it being an itty bitty oneshot to this! thank you, your reveiw pushed me more. ^^ okay so characters for next five chapies:
Inari Saito- a 19 year old who has a 4 year old child named Tohru little else is known about her. she's brave and outspoken and will do anything to protect her son. her current weapon is a Rugger Mark 2 given to her by takashi she has jet black hair in a long braid a blue sweater, black converse and a black skirt, her eyes are greyish blue.
Shujin Yukimura-the badass hitman with a soft spot for a Akaya a high schooler unable to accept reality. he has a sister/brother kind of veiw for her. he's got grade A shooting skills and is quite mellow. he has feiry orangeish black hair and wears a black trench coat that serves to hide his amunition and extra guns. SPOILER! In a (future) flashback it's shown that he saved Akaya from a gang and she became amazed by him she follows him around and it's unknown if they have any kind of romantic emotions for each other. SPOILER OVER! He's around 23.
Fuyu Inoue- Akaya's best friend a lazy and sarcastic 15 year old. she attended Aki no bara (Autumn rose) private girls academy. when she is introduced she's shown to be sleeping along side with Takeo though it's not clear what kind of relationship she holds with him. when Akaya and her were ambushed by a gang they had been having problems due to them likeing the same boy and as she felt Akaya was being unfair as she'd already started dating him. she paid the gang's leader (her cousin) to let her go and left Akaya to fend for herself. weeks later they confronted and made up and they promised to never leave each other's side. unbenknownest to everyone else she develops an obbsesive atraction to Akaya and when she dies she snaps and becomes a sort of a villain. she holds resentment down for Shujin as she feels she pushed Akaya straight into his arms.
Akaya Etoi- a 16 year old who is a classmate and best friend of Fuyu. she was ambushed by a gang and saved by Shujin. from that moment on she started to idolize him and drew herself further away from Fuyu. she's actually become a bit of a stalker for him and she is convinced even at the last moment that she loved Shujin. she acted very sweet whenever she saw him and begin that personality as a cover up since she claimed "i never know if he's watching. i want him to know i'm a good person." in reality she's serious and crude. to sum it up her and Fuyu are actually perfect for each other as they're both very twisted. she cares for Fuyu but that intervenes with her obsession over Shujin as she feels a need to always remain by her side. after the outbreak she was unable to accept reality and is driven slight insane as her loyalty to Fuyu fades and she begins to drift from her and she becomes more depandent of Shujin and is deligted that he feels the need to protect her.
Tohru Saito- another cutie pie! a little 4 year old who is Inari's son. he is happy and very liveful as he is just a child. his father is unknown. he seems to like playing with Arisu.
