Hello, lovelies! Thank you to those 9 that read my first chapter before this was posted. Anyways, I do not own Haikyuu, but enjoy! If you like this story, remember to R&R!
Time Skip~
Turns out, only about twenty patients and hospital staff were found. While Ennoshita, Noya, and Tanaka were busy working on helping the rest getting out, the Crows gathered around to see what the freak duo found. Daichi's face was dark, considering the facts in front of him.
"What should we do about you? Can you move?"
Oikawa looked at them. "If you can't see, I'm kind of strapped down."
Yamaguchi spoke up. "How do you feel, Oikawa-san? Can you feel the… undead side? Can you still control the limbs?"
Oikawa, once again, eyed Yamaguchi. "My, my. Haven't you grown. Who are you again? I feel like I know you." Ignoring the jab, the head medic stepped up closer to him. His inquiring hand was accepted by Oikawa's nod.
"Shouldn't we take him back to headquarters?"
"I… I don't know."
By 'headquarters,' they really meant the barricaded gymnasium at Karasuno High that now served as home. Naturally, the entire high school was their place now, but they mainly stayed in the gymnasium. It served as their meeting base, their common place. Their rooms were the rooms in club house building. Their 'lab' was set up in the closet room, which has now been transformed into a place that tried to cure their minor wounds.
"Well," Daichi said. He examined Oikawa.
Suddenly, Oikawa screamed. He thrashed against his bindings. His infection seemed to strike out like a snake and spread further on his body. It farthest tips of purple had now reached the end of his left arm.
"Oikawa!" The man had lost conscious.
Asahi looked at the sleeping figure. He was still twitching. He and Yamaguchi quietly consulted. "We need to move him, maybe even back to base, if that's possible."
Suga looked at them. "How, though? Strapped to a gurney like that? I don't think he can walk."
Tsukishima, finally speaking up, said, "I don't think that's good idea." They looked at him in surprise.
"Tsukishima… if this about Aoba Johsai..."
"Tsk," he pushed up his glasses, "As if this is something as stupid as that volleyball match. I mean his zombie side can be unpredictable. We've never seen anything like thi-"
"Which is why we need to examine him in our lab!" Hinata had pushed himself in front of Oikawa.
"Hinata dumbass-"
"For once, the King is right." He cut into the two of them again. "This isn't a good idea. Zombies actively try to attack you, what if he loses control? What's going to happen us? What if he infects one of us?"
Suddenly, everyone's walkie-talkies came alive. "Guys," it was Noya's voice. It seemed panic. "Whatever you found must be important, but we need to go. Zombies are coming! Maybe ten or twelve closing in quick! Get your asses out of there. I think a scream attracted them." Daichi looked at all of them in turn and then glanced at Oikawa.
They all collectively thought, Dammit, Oikawa.
"We're going to take him with us. Gurney and all. Kinoshita, Narita, you guys are armed, right?" The two nodded. "Watch Yamaguchi's back. He's going to be taking it. You guys take the accessibility route" He looked at all of them. "As for the rest of you, head back to Getaway. Whichever entrance is fine, but try to be quiet, as always. Don't attract too many zombies. Good luck."
Outside the room, they could hear loud footsteps. "There you are!" Tanaka yelled. "Run! They broke the barricade." They all took off running. Hinata could hear Daichi yell into his walkie-talkie. "Ennoshita, get the patients out of there, we'll meet you at Getaway. Ten minutes!"
The group stampeded towards the doors. They were a couple of blocks from their escape route. Asahi and Suga were responsible for the getaway route. They knew how to get there like the back of their hand. Now what matters was getting there.
After the Revolution of the Dead, the city has long been transformed into a burning trash heap. The government had one, and only one, attempt at saving the country… if by saving the country meant burning it to the ground.
They blazed through and shoved the hospital doors open. Right away, there were shambling figures all around them. The loose density of shambling figures would soon change. Screw 'stealth and no zombie attraction', let's go.
They broke off and ran towards the closest building, which happened to be a bakery. Though its contents has been taken (A/N: by them, of course, they're scavengers as well) it served also as a stairwell. Their stampede had attracted some of the zombies, and they were heading their way.
Hinata, leading the run, waved his hand towards the roof. Asahi, who was at the tail of the group, shoved the empty cases that once held pastry treats over to block the oncoming swarm. The crash sent dust up into their eyes and nose, but thankfully, they had 'masks' on. They ran up the dark unlit stairs without breaking a sweat, now came the hard part.
The way they had entered the hospital was through the roof as well. Bridging the neighboring building was a makeshift bridge which really was an unstable piece of metal scavenged on the way. This was what allowed them to move around on the rooftops.
Everyone ran across the metal plank, and then Suga and Daichi quickly lifted it back up to prevent the zombies on the other side from getting over.
They repeated this over and over again, Hinata and Kageyama sometimes just jumped across from roof to roof. Tanaka and Tsukishima watched the group's back and shot the undead as they came. It was somehow easier to kill them during the daylight then it is at night. Yamaguchi was thinking about that…
Tanaka still looked at the guns with distaste when he held them. They had found the handguns during scavenging the police station. Bullets seemed to be no short amount. They kept running.
Finally, Hinata could see the two hideouts on the edge of the highway. It was picked there strategically in case zombies started to swarm. It was always easy to get out.
They split into the two groups and hid in the two crumbling buildings. Immediately, Daichi's voice cackled over the radios. "Kinoshita, Narita, Yamaguchi. Where are you guys?"
"We found an exit to the east! We're heading your way, one block." They breathed a sigh of relief.
"Noya, Ennoshita, how are the civilians?" Dead silence. A pit started growing in his stomach. "Noya, Ennoshita, where are you?"
Suddenly, Ennoshita's voice blasted through. "RUN RUN! SCREW THE MEET UP! THEY'RE RIGHT BEHIND US." They could hear the sounds of civilians screaming.
"Ennoshita! Ennoshita? Does anyone hear me?" Fear dragged its claws down his spine. Daichi looked around wildly. "If you do hear me, go into hiding. We'll find you again," his voice was calm, but it was obvious he was terrified. He truly had grown up too quickly. What he wouldn't give to have Ukai-kun or Takeda-sensei back.
He then made the choice. "Hinata, Kageyama, Asahi, go back to base."
"What? Why? What about Yamaguchi? And the other patients? It'll take us one to two days to go back!"
"We're staying to hide with them. We'll wait." Daichi gave a stern nod to Tsukishima and Suga.
"We… we're moving out." It was obvious there was hesitance in his voice, but Suga nodded in confirmation as he saw the other group moved out.
The only sound in the dead city were the cawing of crows.
(A/N: Psh, civilians.. Haha, they're civilians too.. But now they just try to save people. I'm really sorry, please accept this weird thing… Also, there's a thing that I didn't really explain really well. They now have a system of separate Getaways that are linked up. They're kind of like a series of safe houses for them to travel to. Right now, they as far as Tokyo.)
