Chapter 2

The entire class began panicking; the teacher did his best to restore order. Ayame shared a nervous look with her friends, they knew that panicking would not help and forced themselves to stay calm.

"An outbreak, here?" Takatora whispered.

Mariko shivered. "I don't believe this; we have to get out of here."

Ayame nodded. "You're right, come on, everybody's evacuating now, let's hurry. The sooner we get out of here, the better off we'll be."

The other three nodded and they joined the crowd as they began to leave the classroom. Leaving the classroom they joined the other students and teachers as the school began to evacuate.

"How long do you think this outbreak has been going on?" Sakura asked. "You know by the time these things are normally found it's been a few hours before word spreads to everyone else."

The others nodded; Ayame was worried, not just about what was going on but also about her sister. She could hear the whispering and finally Sakura spoke up again.

"I heard if these things so much as scratch you get infected too."

Mariko shook her head. "That better not be true, that's too scary to think about."

Takatora bit his lip. "I don't think it is…exactly true; but I think the part about them biting you to turn you, I think that's true."

Ayame was still quiet; still worrying about her sister; she had to make her mind up, soon.

They continued walking to the edge of town, a military checkpoint had been set up all around the town and people had to pass through it to leave town. As the crowd began to approach the checkpoint, Ayame made up her mind.

"Guys." She whispered urgently. "I'm sorry but…I can't; I can't leave my sister behind; I don't see her here."

Mariko shook her head. "Ayame no, your sister could've gone to another checkpoint…"

Ayame cut across her. "This is the nearest one to the office she works in; remember the evacuation instructions, go to the nearest checkpoint; if she's not here, she's not gone to a checkpoint."

Takatora nodded slowly.

"You wanna go find her, right?"

Ayame nodded in confirmation; Mariko looked shocked by this; then even more shocked as Takatora also nodded and Sakura spoke up.

"Okay, we'll help you."

"What?" Mariko gasped. "Are you guys serious?"

Takatora looked grim. "Dead serious."

Mariko sighed. "Okay, let's do it then…but we better not be seen."

However, before they could make a move; their decision was made for them. Several people suddenly entered the street, clearly infected, they began attacking the nearest victims; the soldiers nearby tried to fight but were finding themselves overwhelmed.

"C'mon, now!" Ayame yelled.

The others didn't argue and followed her as they ran down the street, away from the carnage.

They didn't dare stop until they could no longer hear the noises of the attack. They fought to catch their breath; finally Takatora groaned.

"You gotta be kidding me." He gasped out. "Great, now what, this things spreading already."

Mariko shook her head. "You're not kidding, look."

They looked at where she pointed and froze; inside the store next to where they stood, a group of those infected were attacking a pair of people inside. Those that weren't were pounding the windows and door, attempting to break through and attack the group.

"We better run, now!" Sakura cried.

The others agreed and ran, just in time as the windows and door collapsed. They continued to run, only to find that everywhere they turned, more and more zombies appeared to attack them. In the end they had no choice and quickly Takatora shouldered open a metal door, leading into an alleyway. They hurried inside and slammed the door shut behind them. As they caught their breath Ayame sighed.

"I'm sorry guys, worrying about my sister, got you all caught up in this mess."

Mariko shook her head. "What, Ayame, hell no; don't say that, if you hadn't convinced us to come along with you…we'd have been killed in that first attack we saw."

Ayame sighed and nodded. "Yeah, I guess you're right…Well, we can't just keep running, it's not gonna always work."

As she said that she spotted the dead body of a police officer nearby. She made up her mind and approached the body.

Her friends watched, worried as she knelt down next to the body. Then, to their surprise she took the officer's gun and the spare clips, slipping them into her shirt pocket.

"Ayame?" Sakura asked, wondering what she was doing.

Ayame turned to face them, holding the gun. "I'd rather not use this; but if I have too, you know…Then we have a way to defend ourselves."

They nodded; grimly, knowing she was right; however there were no other weapons available so they had to do without. They advanced carefully down the alleyway; they could hear the zombies that had pursued them, slamming on the door they had closed. They quickened their pace, determined to put as much space between them and the zombies as possible.

"I wish we had time to change our clothes." Mariko remarked. "These aren't exactly going to do us any good if we need to climb things and that."

As she spoke she tugged on the collar of her uniform shirt. Takatora looked around and shrugged.

"We've got no choice, now let's quickly find your sister and find another checkpoint we can use to get outta here." He remarked.

They agreed and hurried on; however when they emerged they found zombies bearing down on them. Not wanting to use the gun unless absolutely necessary they began to run, until they were cornered against a wall.

"Shit, shit this is bad." Ayame cursed; she knew she wouldn't have enough bullets to take them all out in time.

They huddled against the wall, Ayame held the gun, ready to open fire.

Just then they heard it, the heavy noise of a helicopter; they looked up and saw it was indeed a helicopter, bearing the logo of the BSAA. The helicopter stopped moving and hovered above them. Suddenly a figure, fastened to the chopper with a rappelling wire, leapt out. As the figure descended they opened fire with a pair of handguns, striking the zombies, notably hitting each one in the head with remarkable accuracy. As he fired the last bullets, and took out the last zombies, the wire held fire and the figure jerked to a stop. The figure, now revealed to be male, righted himself and removed the fire, reloading his handguns before holstering them. Two more BSAA agents, using cables, slid down to the ground level as the first figure approached the four friends. Ayame looked at him carefully; he was rather young, no older than nineteen; he was tall and skinny, but seemed to be rather strong, he had tan skin, short brown hair and brown eyes. He was clad in a pair of black combat trousers; a white field T-shirt; bulletproof vest; white socks and black boots. A BSAA field uniform; he smiled gently as he approached.

"Hey, you four okay?" He asked.

They noticed that he was keeping one hand on one of his guns. They all nodded, Ayame spoke up.

"We're fine…You saved us, thank you."

The young man nodded. "Part of the job ma'am."

Ayame shook her head. "My name's Ayame, Ayame Fujisaki; these are my friends…" She indicated each one as she spoke. "Takatora Sago, Sakura Nanashi and Mariko Wakarimashu."

The young man smiled wider and nodded before introducing himself.

"Pleasure to meet you, Jacob Robins, BSAA."
