Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts! There! I said it! Now leave me alone Dx Oh! Or anything I reference :3
Getting through New York wasn't going to be easy. It's the third most populated state in The United States. He doubted anyone in New York survived the zombie apocalypse. Even if they did, he doubted he would pick anyone else off of the side of the road. The brunette was enough.
Aside from Sora being absolutely cute, he was messy. Whenever he ate he always spilled food somewhere. If not on his shirt then on the seat. He had a weak bladder too so they stopped at least once an hour so the younger teen could do his business. And Sora snored every goddamn time he feel asleep. Riku couldn't even count how many times he's shaken the teen out of sleep.
But Riku put up with his nonsense. Because really, he was sweet. They were almost complete opposites, but they got along really well. They had found out that they went to the same school too. Riku was a sophomore and Sora was a freshmen. Which was probably why Riku never saw him before. That, and they lived in two different worlds. Riku was always the jock that hung out with the other dicks on the football and basketball team. Sora was the gay dude that everyone picked on.
Riku didn't mind that Sora was gay though. He didn't judge others like most do. Honestly he had only one rule. And that was Rule number one: Look out for number one. It was a selfish rule, but it got him by in life. And it's getting him by now. So how many of those dead motherfuckers can argue with that?
Riku pulled over for the fifth time that day. But this time it wasn't so Sora could take a leak. He saw something very suspicious up ahead. He had to check it out. He put the mini van in park and got out of the van.
"Riku, where are you-?"
"I see something. I'm gonna go check it out. Lock all of the doors and don't come out unless your life depends on it." With that he slammed the door. Sora did as he said and hugged his shotgun. He was afraid.
Riku walked up to the suspicious warehouse in front of him. It was just under the bridge, about two miles away from the New York state border. The van was parked about ten yards away from the bridge. He slowly reached for the handle of the door when he realized he forgot his bat. Oops. He pushed down on the handle and opened the door. Ahead of him on the back wall were two words written with blood. 'Safe House'
"Safe House?" Riku looked around the room and smirked at what he saw. There were a variety of weapons leaning up against the wall. Basic pistols, shotguns, snipers. There was also a pile of ammunition in the middle of the floor. All of that good stuff. And in situations like the zombie apocalypse.. This is like receiving a good fuck for free. "Oh yeah, I've heard of these places on the news. They're supposed to be for survivors. Riku picked up a note on a table nearby and read it.
"Report unusual behavior. Barricade your homes. Avoid all contact with infected individuals. Wait for official instructions. Hah! Wait my ass!"
"Kill all sons of bitches. That's my official instructions." Riku jumped at the voice and put his fists up, ready to fight. The owner of the voice walked out of the shadows and he calmed down a bit, seeing the teen was about his age. "The name's Axel. Got it memorized?"
Riku put his hands down and tried to act casual. "Why the fuck are you in here?"
The redhead pointed to the writing behind him in blood. "The safe house is for everyone. Not just for pretty boys." He winked at Riku. Riku just rolled his eyes. "So where you headed?"
Riku rose a silver eyebrow. "Huh? How do you know I'm going somewhere?"
Axel just shrugged. "You wouldn't just happen to be takin' a stroll today, now would you?" Axel chuckled.
Riku sighed. "Ugh, that's right. The zombies."
"So where you headed?"
"Saint Petersberg. It's safe. Or at least the broadcast says-" Riku stopped himself. Why had he just told someone where he was going? He can't trust anyone! For all he knows, this guy could try to steal his van!
"That's where I was going too, until those girls hijacked me and stole my truck." The redhead sighed and started to laugh. This got Riku confused.
"What's so fucking funny?"
"Well, I don't mean to raid on your little parade, but they probably have your ride too, by now."
"What!" Riku ran outside as quickly as possible, only to see Sora walking towards him with his bag slung behind his shoulder, one suitcase rolling next to him, and the other hand juggling his bat and the shotgun all at once. Oh, and who could forget that hot black headed chick behind the wheel of his van with her cute blonde acquaintance in the passengers seat? That was a little hard to miss.
Axel joined Riku in staring at the laughing teens driving by. "Their names are Xion and Namine. I found that out when they stole my soap." Axel grimaced.
Sora walked until he was a few feet in front of Riku and stopped and cleared his throat. "I want to start off my apology by saying how handsome you are..."
"GOD FUCKING DAMNIT SORA! Now we're gonna be stuck here with this ginger that smells like an old gym sock that someone forgot to clean for two years!"
Axel gasped. "That was harsh bro."
Riku turned on Axel. "AND YOU! You knew that if I stayed there for long they'd steal my mini van! So why did you start up a conversation with me!"
Axel held up his hands defensively. "Look man, I'm really sorry. But we really should get inside. We're not that far from the city, so I bet there's a few walkers hangin' around lookin' for a nice happy meal."
Riku shook his head and sighed. "Fine, but-" Before he could finish his sentence, he heard heavy footsteps approaching them. When the owner of the footsteps came into view, Riku gasped. The thing was huge.
Axel stepped back into the safe house. "GET IN! Quick! Before it sees you!"
Sora and Riku wasted no time in hurrying their asses into the safe house. When they were inside they quickly shut the heavy door and set a plank on the supports to insure their safety. The giant creature had seen them though. They were screwed. After a few seconds of the teens being inside, it began to bang on the door.
Axel sighed. "It's called a Tank. They're super tough and super hard to kill. We're never gonna get out of here... alive anyways." He plopped down into a nearby chair and began to twirl around in it slowly.
Riku looked to the guns on the wall and to the bags sitting near them. He put as many guns in the two bags as he could. He also took Sora's bag and dumped it's contents out. Sora never noticed because he was too busy freaking out in the small bathroom on the right side of the safe house. Riku filled the bag with as much ammunition as he possibly could and set the bag next to the other two against the wall. He then looked through the bars of the back door and saw that the area behind the safe house was clear. Luck was with him that day when he spotted a small car not too far ahead. They could make it. Or at least he hoped.
"EVERYONE! Get the fuck off of your asses and come here!" the silver headed teen shouted. Soon enough the other two joined him in looking out of the door's bars. "See that car? We're gonna drive it out of here."
Axel face palmed. "Why didn't I think of that!"
Riku smirked. "Because you're stupid. Now grab one of those big bags. Sora, you grab the small one. Fuck your shit and fuck that shotgun. We have better guns now, and we'll find clothes later." Sora nodded and did what he was told, as did Axel. Riku grabbed one of the larger bags himself and pulled the plank off of it's supports from the back door. "On three. One. Two-" And just when he was about to say three the tank busted through the door!
"Fuck your three man!" Axel pushed the door open and made a run for the car, as did Sora and Riku. The Tank charged after them, but it ran too hard and stumbled over a cinder block. This gave the teens a chance to rip open three of the four doors of the car and jumped in, throwing their shit in with them as well. Riku searched frantically. Not on the shade, not on the dash, nor in it. Not in the door. He was about to give up.. when he looked at the ignition. The key was already in place. He turned it and the engine roared to life. Everyone sighed in relief, until they heard the footsteps from hell again.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" was all you heard when Riku stepped on the gas and left the Tank behind forever.
Two days later they found themselves held up in a hotel room on the side of the highway. Riku was tired of having to sleep in the car every night, so they all decided to stay here for awhile. They parked the car behind a wall that hid the dumpsters away from the highway so no no one else could steal their ride, but of course they took their weapons with them. On the ride through New York they saw countless numbers of hordes, so they had to find a lot of back roads. But eventually they made it to sweet ol' Pennsylvania. It was still a heavily populated state, but not as much as New York, that was for sure. He still wondered though.. What the hell kind of mess will they find in this state?
Sora sat on the bed thinking about his situation. He liked staying in the hotel room, he really did. But something about staying here for the night felt off. They shouldn't stop moving. It was dangerous to stop moving. He learned that the hard way. He didn't want to tell Riku or Axel this though. They were happy with finally being able to sleep in a bed. Why should he take away their happiness?
His thoughts wandered off to Axel. He was fun to have around! He always seemed to lighten up the mood with his cheesy jokes here and there, but he could tell the redhead had something on his mind. He was very handsome too. He had red hair that spiked out in the back, and beautiful green eyes that you could gaze into forever. He also had two tear drop tattoos under his eyes, which reminded Sora of people in gangs. Don't they color in teardrop tattoos like that when one of their people die? What was Axel's past like?
Axel looked around at his two new acquaintances. They were pretty good lookin' if he didn't say so himself. The one with silver hair actually had a nice build to his body. He found this out when he was changing into some clothes someone left here awhile back. He was quite handsome, but the brunette had him beat in cuteness. He couldn't help but giggle at the little things that the younger teen did that were absolutely silly. He fell in love with those gorgeous blue eyes too. He had to try really hard not to stare at him half of the time.
But in all honesty, he didn't want the brunette. Because he has someone waiting for him in Illinois, and he couldn't take his mind off of the blonde for a minute. He promised Roxas that he would come for him, no matter what the cost. And he'll be damned if he breaks that promise.
A/N: Yay! They found Axel! Now there just has to be a Roxas, am I right! And yes, they color in their teardrop tattoos like that when one of their fellow gang members die. I tried to make this chapter a little bit longer than the first, since the first chapter was really an introduction to how Sora and Riku met! But I see I barely even did that..Sorry! But I have to stop here! My gut feeling demands it! So notice how everyone keeps calling people their acquaintances? Yeah, there are no friends in Zombieland Dx Review please! If you don't, Sora just might have to suffer 8D And a shout out to anyone who can guess what this whole chapter referenced! :3
