Chapter 1. Bryan goes crazy.
Reanimated corpse Bryan Fury has kept various urges under control for the past two to three years, the main urge being a want for human brains. Unfortunately for the other participants of the sixth King of the Iron Fist tournament he can no longer keep himself under control.
Soon after the participants arrived at their hotel, they spoke and met the newbie participants and greeted old friends. They had barely got to their rooms when a loud scream emanated from the main foyer. Many participants ran to see Bryan biting Anna Williams, her face pale as a sheet. Bryan having heard a noise, looked up the stairs at the horrified group watching him and dropped Anna who feebly stirred on the floor, soon she would be either dead or a zombie too. The rest of the participants ran as Bryan started up the stairs.
A group ran into a nearby bedroom, Hwoarang pulled Jin through the doorway and shut the door but not before they saw Bryan grab and bite Xiaoyu, nearly taking her head off in the process.
"Hwoarang!" Baek automatically greeted his student.
"Master, are you alright?" Hwoarang asked whilst Jin leaned against a nearby wall.
"Shush." Lars whispered, from next to the door, his ear pressed against it. A few minutes later he stood up straight and looked round at Hwoarang, Baek, Leo, Jin, Steve, Nina, Alisa, Asuka, Lili and Eddy with his arm around an upset Christie, Lars continued "I think he's gone now, we need to block this door, with whatever we can, and find a way out of the building that doesn't involve running into him."
"Really? What else does Mr Military Guy think?" Nina asked. "Does everyone here think this is a good plan?"
"I don't see anyone else with a plan and unless you want to end up like your sister out there maybe we should listen to the only guy that's come out with anything that remotely resembles a way in which we might survive." Eddy pointed out.
"If Anna's dead it's no more than what she deserves, if she isn't she might as well be." Nina said.
"Wait." Steve said, getting involved "I have an aunt?" he asked, looking confused.
"Maybe not anymore and you really didn't know?" Hwoarang said.
Steve gestured to Nina "Well I only met my mum once when I stopped Lei from arresting her for trying to murder me."
"That's not right." Jin told him.
"Look who's talking." Lili murmured.
"Hey!" Asuka spat out, doing a rude hand gesture in Lili's direction.
"Are we not going to mention the fact that Xiao may be dead too?" Jin asked.
"What, missing your adoring fangirl?" Hwoarang teased.
"Hwoarang! Be nice." Baek ordered before switching his attention to Lars who was still next to the door looking like he had no idea what he got himself into, "Lars is it? Maybe we could put that bed on its end and put it against the door. We do need to block it." Lars, Baek, Hwoarang and Leo moved the bed in question in front of the door to prevent Bryan from coming in that way. More screaming could be hearing from somewhere in the building.
"What if that person needs our help?" Alisa asked, looking worried.
"By now they're either dead, or becoming a zombie we can't do much to help them now." Leo told her.
"Don't say the z word!" Christie implored, tears escaping down her cheeks, Eddy hugged her tight.
"Leo, are you a dude or a chick?" Asuka asked.
"What? I'm quite clearly a…" Leo began to respond before getting cut off.
"I'd say girl." Steve admitted whilst Hwoarang said "Obviously boy."
"Does it really matter? We should keep our voices down so they don't know we're here and try to think of a way out of here." Lili told the group.
