Author's notes: So when you read on, you will see it is indeed, a zombie apocalypse. I made the image of them a bit like World War Z. Only the quickness of said zombies of course. Everything else is pretty basic zombie characteristics for now.
Also, I'm sorry that it's a bit shorter then the rest.
Raven Hally: You pretty much find out this chapter, although the name has not been said yet.

Kizukatana: Thank you so much for reading! I love to write, and don't plan on quiting. I will for sure finish this, even though it might take some time. :)
"Sasuke, why are you-" I was in the middle of asking him when I heard a loud scream and someone saying, "Get off of me!"
Sasuke and I looked at each other, and tried to find the source of the person yelling.
"Get this women off of me! God damn it!"
"It sounds like it's coming from behind the worker's stand. The one has the buttons that control the ride," Shikamaru said in an abnormally panicked tone.
We all ran towards the stand and swooped around it, finding Kiba struggling to keep a girl from chomping down on his face.
"Get off him!" Ino yelled.
"What's wrong with her?!" Chouji asked to no one in particular.
Sasuke rushed over and tried to push her off him, but she had a tight grip on his neck and wouldn't let go.
"Damn it." I rushed over to help Sasuke, but a guy that I didn't know, one that was maybe in his mid 20's, came over and grabbed the girl's shirt, or what was left of it, and pulled as hard as he could.
She toppled off Kiba, and landed on her back beside the man who had helped Kiba. Kiba looked shaken and waddled back as far as he could from the diseased girl.
"I was only trying to get a better view of the ride when out of nowhere she came sprinting at me! Not even running, but sprinting! She was trying to bite me! Like what the hell, man?" Kiba tried to explain.
Why would she try to attack Kiba? Or more like, why would she try to chow down on him? Once I walked a little closer, I recognized her. She was the girl that was running earlier when we were on the ride. What had happened to her?
The man walked up to her and put his foot on her chest so she couldn't move. "She's not the only one that's like this. Further down in here, there where two others that were bloodied and hurt. The worker for one of the rides went to see if they were okay, but they pounced on him the instant he was close enough to them. Then, they started digging into him, eating him. It was like a nightmare. I couldn't do anything, I just ran. However, before I did, I could see it in his eyes; he was dead. I don't know what's happening, but there seems to be more and more." He stopped talking and kept his feet planted on the girl.
"Where's my brother?" Sasuke asked, out of nowhere.
I looked around and noticed that Itachi was nowhere in sight. "Hinata and Neji aren't here either," I announced.
"And that weird guy with red hair, Gaara, I think his name was." Lee chipped in.
"They were here when we got off the ride," I added. Where could they be? We need to find them then get out of this place.
"What's your name?" Sasuke asked the guy whom was still firmly standing on the girl. She didn't look like she was struggling to get out anymore.
"My name is Rin," He replied. Looking at him now, he was quite handsome. He had bright blue eyes, that had a sort of cool dangerous gleam to them. He also had slightly pointed ears. He wore a blue shirt that had a black zip down, a sleeveless sweater, and tight dark blue skinnys.
"We have to find the rest of our group and get out of here!" Chouji exclaimed.
"Don't need to find us anymore," Itachi said jogging to us with Neji and Hinata behind him.
"Where were you?" Sasuke went up to his brother and waited for his reply.
"Hinata saw that Chouji was sick from the ride, so she went off in search of some medicine for him. Neji and I quickly followed her so she wouldn't get lost, but we didn't make it outside the amusement park. There are a ton of those-" Itachi pointed at the girl who was on the ground "-all around here. I don't know what they are but there are more and more every minute."
We all looked at the girl and then back towards the rest of the amusement park. "And they are all...trying to bite people?" I asked not knowing how to word it properly.
"Not just biting, but eating and killing." Neji said.
I was going to be sick. This was supposed to be a fun time for us, a couple days of rides and just plain old fun. What is happening here?
"How are there becoming more?" Sasuke asked.
"I don't know. Just seems like there are more of them than us." Itachi answered.
"Okay, well we need to get out of here before-" Rin lost his balance on the girl and took a stepped back to regain his balance. As soon as he did that the girl took her opportunity and quickly pounced on Rin and bit into his leg.
Rin gave a blood turning scream and ripped his leg away from her grasp. Itachi then went up and kicked her so she slid across to the wall and hit it was a sicking crack from her head smashing into it.
"God damn it! I'm alright, we just need to get out of here!" He said while limping away. I went over to him and took his arm and put it over my shoulder.
"It will be faster with my help," I said. Sasuke looked back at me worried, but stayed with his brother.
"Okay, we know where the exit is, but that's all the way across the amusement park. We need to find a safer way out, there has to be an exit door somewhere." Itachi said while walking towards the pathway we where at that leads to all the rides. "Stop!" Itachi commanded.
We saw two people running away screaming, and I recognized them from my bus. I didn't know them, but they where students from my school. About five seconds later four of those things sprinted after them. "We have to help them!" Lee whispered loudly.
"We can't," Rin disagreed.
"We have to find Jiraiya!" I called out. Sasuke looked back at me like he wanted to say something but looked away sadly. We both knew the answer to that. We can't go looking when there are those things running around and killing people.
"I'm sorry, Naruto. We just can't," Itachi said while moving slowly towards he pathway. He gave us the okay with his hands and we quickly followed him.
"Alright." I felt like crying, but I couldn't right now. The best I could do was pray that he and everyone else would come out of this okay.
We reached the pathway and started walking down it. It was oddly quite for what Itachi said earlier. I imagined they would all be here, and a lot of them too. We couldn't see once side of the amusement park because the way the path was curved for the rides to fit in nicely.
"Where are they all? I see...lot's of blood, but no bodies or those people...things," Lee asked.
"I don't know. I'm pretty sure I saw an exit around this corner. Let's hurry." Itachi led us further down the path, then once we rounded the corner we all stopped and gasped. There were puddles of blood, lots of people running and screaming trying to get to an exit of any sort, and there where a ton of those things eating people. It was a blood bath like the ones in horror movies.
"Turn around, now!" Itachi called out, catching the attention of a few unwanted quests. The started getting up from their previous meal and coming towards us. "Run!" Itachi commanded and we did as he told.
I turned around, still helping Rin. He was slowing me down, but I won't leave him. "Rin, we will be okay, just keep up the pace and lean on me more to use your good leg!" I called out too him, but got no answer. I turned to look at him and he was sweating profusely. "Rin, are you alright? Hang in there!" I called out too him. He wasn't talking, but I could tell he heard me. He kept up the pace even though it looked like he was in so much pain.
"There's a door!" Chouji yelled out pointing to a door that wasn't too far from us. It was maybe a two minute run, but with Rin like this, he will pass out anytime now.
Sasuke looked behind him, and he ran back towards us. "What are you doing?! Get your ass back up there!" He wanted to help me, but I don't want him to be in any immediate danger.
"No, two will be better then one with a almost unconscious person! I will not leave you behind." He slipped his arm under Rin's and we ran as fast as we could. Everyone was already there when we arrived, holding the door open for us.
Once we got through the door the slammed it shut. Those things where crashing into the door, and trying to push it open. They where very strong as a group.
"We have to get something to keep the door closed!" Itachi yelled, still holding the door closed.
The door did not lead to an exit, it led to a flight of stairs. We could go down or up. I didn't know where down would lead us, a basement most likely, but I will not go. I have a bad feeling about the basement.
I looked around and found a door stopper. "Here! This will not last for long but it will give us enough time to get upstairs." I claimed.
"Is it the only thing we have?" Itachi looked around and gave a sigh. "Alright, once we place the stopper you run as fast as you can.
We all shook our heads in agreement, and I put the door stopper under the door and kicked it in good and tight.
"Alright, on the count of three, we run."
"One." We all looked at each other and got ready to run.
"Two."
"Three!" We instantly took off, of course Sasuke and I were still carrying Rin, who now was unconscious.
We ran at least four sets of stairs before we heard a door opening ahead of us. We were at least a set of stairs behind the others, so we rushed even quicker up the stairs. Once we where just able to see the light coming from the doorway, we heard the door behind us slam open, and then we heard feet stomping on the stairs. They were coming full speed towards us.
We heard the others screaming our names and once we reached the same level as the door, we did not stop till we were outside, and the door was closed.
"Hurry! Give me something to block the door!" Chouji called out to us.
"There's this chain and lock but how will we use it?" Ino asked uncertain.
"It's long enough to go around the outside of the service door entrance. Once we get it around it, it will be tight enough to not fall too the ground, but we need to hurry."
Chouji took one end of the chain and went as fast as he could around the service door entrance and once he got back he took the lock, and locked it into place.
"What are they?!" Sakura cried out. For once, it was a good question.
"I don't know, but are they only in the mall?" Ino asked.
"If they are, it will soon spread across the city if nothing is done about it." Shikamaru answered.
There was a loud bang on the door and moaning could be heard. "How do we get off the building?" I asked. Everyone looked around then Itachi offered to go see if there was an emergency ladder at all around the roof.
I remembered that I still had Rin and Sasuke and I went and put him on the ground. Thankfully, I remembered to take my bag with me when I ran out of the room, so I put it under his head.
"Why is he passed out? He was only bit!" I asked really to myself.
"He passed out quite quickly too. Sakura can you come over here?" Sasuke asked.
"Yes, Sasuke!" Sakura ran over to see what he wanted.
"You have been in the medical class at school, right? Can you look over him and see what's wrong?" Sakura knows quite a bit about medicine, she is almost as good as a doctor, even though she's only practiced for three years.
"Of course!" Sakura pulled on a serious face and knelled on the side of Rin. We gave her space and walked to the group of others.
"How is he?" Ino asked.
"In all honesty, we don't know. It's not looking to good." Sasuke stated.
"Oh...Well hopefully we can get off here and get him to a real hospital." Ino offered.
"Yea..." We all knew that might not happen, if what Shikamaru said about it being all over the city. Right now, it looked pretty ordinary out, but we can really only see the parking lot and a few houses.
"Will the chain be sturdy enough to keep them out?" I asked curious. Most of the banging has stopped, but there where still moans and shuffling coming from the door.
"It should be. Plus with how wide the stair case in it is only around three too four can get to the door at a time," Shikamaru answered.
"That's true." I heard some one walking towards us and turned around to see that it was Sakura. She looked terrible and was crying.
"What's wrong?" Lee asked.
"He's dead!" Sakura cried out.
"What are you talking about, Sakura? He's getting up now." Sasuke lifted his hand in the direction of Rin who sure enough was indeed getting up.
Something was off with his eye's though, it was like they where looking off into space, and the veins in them where red and popping out.
"No, he was! His pulse was gone, I checked four times!" Sakura told us.
"Sasuke, look into his eyes. They are not normal." As I spoke Rin looked at me and started walking towards me, but picking up speed with every movement.
"Rin, just stay there and don't move!" Sasuke called out but Rin did not listen.
"Rin! Please stop where you are." I called at him, he still did not listen to us, but now he was in a slow jug towards me.
"Naruto, get behind me." Sasuke grabbed me by my arm and ushered me behind him.
"Rin, please! We don't want to hurt you!" I yelled from behind Sasuke.
Now he was in a full sprint he was nearly here when I heard a loud smack, and Rin went flying back words. There was Gaara holding a wooden plank that was now broken in half.
"Well, there goes my weapon." Gaara said to himself.
I knew Rin's jaw was broken from how it slightly went to the right. He should be unconscious but he started getting up again.
"What the hell, man! He's like those things now!" Kiba yelled.
I looked around to find any possible weapon, and saw that there was a medal pipe across from where we where. The only problem is that I have to go around Rin to get it. We didn't have much time though, he was getting up, and he might go after one of them next.
I looked for the closest, but safest way possible around him, and that would be going around the whole service door. It would take too long. I'm a fast runner, so I'm sure I can make it if I got with the widest space, and that was to his left. I moved so that I was ahead of Sasuke, and made a dash for it.
"Naruto!" Sasuke called out to me, while everyone else gasped in surprise.
I was now right next to the roof's edge when I heard sprinting from behind me. I didn't have to look to know it was Rin. I ran faster and harder and when I finally reached the pipe, I was pushed over. When I rolled onto my back, Rin jumped onto me and tried to bite at me, but my hand was at his throat pushing him away. He was strong, I had to worry. I won't be able to keep him away much longer.
I looked over to were the group was. Sasuke and Shikamaru were running towards me, they won't make it though. I looked at the other side and saw the pipe that was just in hands reach.
I reached for it while Rin was still trying to chomp down on me, saliva and blood where dripping onto me. Once I was just able to reach the pipe with my fingers and ushered it closer to myself and got a firm grip on it and whipped it towards his head. He fell over to my side then quickly got up, but I beat him to the punch. He started to charge at me, but not before I kicked him in the stomach, and he went flying backwards. He tripped over the side of the building and went plummeting downwards until there was a loud splat.
Sasuke finally reached me at that point. "Why the hell did you do that?! You idiot!" Sasuke yelled.
I just stared down where Rin's body was, his leg was to the side, and his arm was behind his back, his head was turned to the side with blood pouring out of it. As I stood there, I could feel warm drops coming down my cheek. I just killed someone. I have never thought I could, and never wanted too. But when it came to my friends I didn't think about it, I just did it. I don't regret it either, if I had not stepped up someone could have gotten hurt or worse. It's just the shock of killing someone, and someone that saved my friend in the first place too.
Sasuke walked up to me and turned me around so I was not facing the edge of the roof...or what was below it. "You were brave, Naruto. Just don't do it again. Please, for my sake, don't." He brought me into his arms and hugged me tightly, but I didn't mind. I balled my hands into his shirt and cried.
"What the hell happened when I was scouting the area?" Itachi walked up to us confused.
