A/N: Wow, thank you so much for all the views, follows, and favorites. I decided to update with Chapter Two just to get things rolling, but otherwise, I'm going to update every Saturday, because that's when there's no homework and y'all get to stay up late(: I'm still looking for a beta, and someone to make a better cover for me.
spydergrrl: I know! I've noticed no one has really done a zombie fic, and I thought it would be perfect! Thank you so much for reviewing(:
Chapter Two
Chloe's P.O.V. (6 years ago, on the bus ride)
I can't believe she kissed him. She even told me that she didn't like him like that. She said he was like a brother to her. God, it's so fucked up... Watching him cuddle up to her. I wish it were me. She kind of looks uncomfortable, and her eyes are darting around. What's she doing? I follow her eyes and she's looking at Stacie, who's really focused on her nails. I can see why Aubrey likes her.
I look back at Beca and see that she's staring at me. I look into her steel-blue eyes, and I don't even know how long we were staring, but then the bus jumped, and Amy's saying she hit something. Of course, Jesse, the macho douche has to go out to "investigate" or whatever.
When Jesse looks under the bus, I can tell something is wrong by the look on his face. Then I see the creature's face. I just… I don't even know what to say. I know for a fact it wasn't human when it started eating Jesse. I turned away just as Aubrey pulled Beca to the ground on top of her, just to fall on the floor myself after Amy floors the bus and runs over the creature… And Jesse.
I quickly get back on my feet, my eyes tearing up as I realize what had just happened. I turn around and Beca runs into me, and falls. I help her back up and whisper to her, " Becs, I'm so sorry. I-I don't even know what happened… It just started… Taking bites out of his neck… Beca… He's dead." She collapses into my arms and I stand still holding her as she cries, gently sitting her and myself down.
After about thirty minutes, a fight breaks out over what the hell that creature was, and just as Amy tell us to "SHUT THE FUCK UP!", the bus crashes through a guardrail and flips over a couple times before stopping.
Luckily, I was still sitting down, along with Stacie, Lilly, and Fat Amy was driving so she was buckled up so, we didn't get too bangged up. Also, the bus landed right side up.
"Hello?" I called out.
"Hey, ginger!" Amy responded, "I'm okay!"
"Fuck, I broke a nail!" Stacie said, "Otherwise, I'm okay!"
"I've crashed cars on purpose." Lilly whispered.
I didn't hear anyone elses voices, other than the three of them. "Guys, come back here and help me check everyone." I crouch over by Beca and Aubrey and feel each pulse. Both pulses seemed to be fine, they were both just unconscious. I felt around Aubrey's body and noticed just a couple of lacerations, but no broken bones from what I could tell. I felt around Beca's body and noticed that she hit her head pretty hard and that it was bleeding pretty bad. "Does anyone have a spare shirt?" I ask.
Fat Amy looked over at me, and I pointed to Beca's head. "Yeah, I'll get one. My shirts should be big enough to wrap around her head a couple times." Amy goes over to her suitcase, and all of the sudden I hear Stacie scream.
"Oh my god, Jessica isn't fucking breathing!" I run over, careful not to step on anyone, or at least anyone's body. I feel Jessica's pulse, but there isn't one. I feel around her body, and I find the reason she's dead. Her neck is broken. When I say broken, it's broken. Part of her neck is jutting out and I can feel the bone jutting out, almost breaking the skin.
"Okay, everyone go and check pulses. I know we can't see shit, but feel around and try to move people out of the way." I say, while shifting Jess's body to the back of the bus, laying her down on a seat.
"How are you so okay with this?!" Stacie almost yells."
"I'm a med student. I work with cadavers all the time."
"I like to burn bodies." Lilly whispers.
"Guys, just move everyone. Use the back for anyone who is either dead, or gravely injured." Use the front for those who are alive." I say in the most professional voice I can, when on the inside I'm freaking the fuck out and on the verge of tears.
I start to move Aubrey and Beca to the front of the bus when Amy calls me over to Cynthia Rose, and I feel around her body. I run my hands down her left leg and I find her tibia sticking out of her skin. "Oh god… Amy… I need a couple more of your shirts."
Amy goes and gets two more of her shirts, and hands them to me. I rub my hands together and realize that I have no gloves, and I can't risk any infection. We don't even know where we are or if theres a hospital nearby. "Wait." I say, "Does anyone have any gloves?"
"I carry some for when I tattoo people on the street." Lilly whispers. She goes into her bag and brings me a pair of black skin tight latex gloves.
"Stacie, I know you have a sewing kit. Bring me a needle and black thread, and thread the needle for me. Amy, I need you to hold my phone over her leg, I need light. Okay, everyone? Bare with me here." I say.
After everyone has given me the supplies, I put on the gloves, put Amy's shirts in my lap, and the needle in between my teeth. "Okay, Amy, turn the flashlight app on." The bright light illuminates Cynthia Rose's leg, and I see that the bone is jutting out to the side. It doesn't look like a jagged break, it looks clean so there shouldn't be a problem with it healing. I look over at Lilly and say, "Come over here and hold her leg still while I reset the bone." Lilly walks over and holds Cynthia Rose's knee, and righ above her ankle. I put my palm over the bone, and nod to Lilly. Her grip tightens as I push her bone back into her leg, hearing every little crack along the way. As soon as her bone is in the right place, blood starts to trickle out. "Lilly go get your lighter, and find something metal! Hurry!" Two minutes pass and Lilly hands me a heated tire iron she finds in the back. I hold it to Cynthia Rose's gash and the bleeding slows down. I take the needle out from in between my teeth, and give it to Lilly so she can heat it up. As soon as she is done, she hands it back to me, and I begin to sew up her leg, then wrap it in Fat Amy's shirt.
After I'm done, I look at each of the girls and ask for a text book. None of them had one, so I told them to get me one of Aubrey's. Stacie hands me a textbook about law and I rip the cover off, and break it in half. I put each half on either side of Cynthia Rose's leg and use the other shirt to wrap those around her leg.
"Help me move her up to the front." Stacie, Fat Amy and Lilly all help me carry her to the front, setting her down on one of the seats.
I plop down on the floor of the bus, and ask how many people are in the back. "Just Jessica. Everyone else is alive"
"Okay. Let's all take a break." I say.
All three of us slump to the floor, me pulling off my gloves. At the same time, all of us start crying, even Lilly. We don't know where we are, Jessica's dead, and everyone else is unconscious. For the next hour, we sit there and cry.
We sit in silence for a while until we hear, "W-What happened..?" It came from the front and it sounded like Aubrey.
"Bree? Oh my god, is that you?" I crawl over to where I heard her voice, and reach out to find her.
"Chloe? Are you alright? What happened?"
"The bus flipped. I'm okay, but Jessica, she's… Bree… Jess is dead."
"What?! Oh my god!" Aubrey covers her mouth, no doubt trying to keep the vomit down.
"Shh, calm down. It's okay. She's in the back of the bus, you don't have to see her, but you can't throw up in here, and I'm not letting anyone outside this bus."
"W-why?"
"Because it's dark and there could be more of those things. Just please, okay?"
"Is Stacie okay?"
"I'm right here." Stacie whispers from next to me, making me jump.
"Holy shit, you just scared the shit out of me. It's fucking pitch black in here!" I yell.
"What all happened, guys?" Aubrey asks.
When no one talks, I'm assuming they're all waiting for me to talk. "The bus crashed through a guardrail and flipped over. We have no idea where we are, and none of us are leaving this bus. You have a couple cuts, Beca's head is banged up, and Cynthia Rose has a broken tibia. I had to use the cover of your laws book for a splint. Also, Denise is pretty much fine. She's just unconscious. I'll have to test her for a concussion when she wakes up. However, like I said, Jess is dead. and I don't know what to do with her, erm, body."
Aubrey sits silently for awhile before asking, "What time is it?"
Fat Amy looks at her watch, tapping the light button. "It's 2:04am."
"I'm assuming we crashed around 11:30pm to midnight?"
"Yes, that seems about right." I say.
"Okay, I guess we should all just stay awake until everyone wakes up." Aubrey suggests.
"Yeah, that seems like the best thing to do."
After about forty minutes, I hear shuffling on a seat, before hearing, "Oh god, my head."
