Tiger: Hello everyone and Happy New Year. Hope you got your New Year's resolution ready because I do. So, How about we start this new year with blood, zombies and tension. Enjoy.
Tony, Moira, Darby and Phooko rushed through the school as they killed and shot zombies along the way. Darby was following slowly behind while knocking a few zombies away but not killing them. They finally made it to the rear exit doctor school with the bus in sight. Moira was ready to go after them but Tony stopped her.
"Wait here, Phooko and I will distract some of them while you two run to the bus."
"Screw that, I want to kill some of these things," Moira said cracking her knuckles. Tony smirked at her ambition before changing the plan; having her and Tony distract while Darby and Phooko go for the bus. Tony counted to three as he and Moira ran out making as much noise as they could. The zombies ran towards the two allowing Phooko and Darby to sneak past them.
"I hope they'll be okay," Phooko said worried.
"I hope so too," Darby replied. Meanwhile, inside the school, Alexandria and James were currently running for their lives while Carrie shot down the zombies chasing them. The three managed to run into the classroom and just in time as Carrie ran out of ammunition.
"That was close," James said straighten out his pants. Carrie threw out the Tommy gun magazine as she tried to snuggle up to James. "Carrie, we need to focus and get the supplies to escape." Carrie pouted as she started to pick up things to help along with a long metal pole. After a minute, the three had handfuls of cloth but now faced a new challenge; how to get back and still defend themselves. As they discussed this, screams and bodies dropping was heard from outside the door. Soon, it stopped and the door opened up. The person behind the unseen carnage was another teen about 6'07" with a average body build and brown hair. His eyes matches his hair as he wore a leather motorcycle jacket, leather pants, leather fingerless gloves and a large kitchen knife covered in blood. The three were stunned at that the blood soaked teen before the teen spoke.
"Hi, I'm Tyler."
Back with Tony and Moira, the two continued to run from zombies as the made a U turn and headed back the bus. The were almost there but Moira left heel got caught in a sizable crack causing her to fall.
"Stupid heels," Moira swore as she tried to run again but her ankle was twisted. Tony looked back to see a zombie heading towards a down and crawling Moira. Tony turned back around, ran at full speed and clotheslined the zombie; taking the zombie's head off. Tony extended his hand towards Moira with a smirk on his face.
"Need a hand?"
"Don't get cute on me quarterback," Moira said as Tony helped her up and threw her over his shoulder.
"I'm not a quarterback," Tony said preparing to run, "I'm a running back." Tony ran as fast as he could without stopping or slowing down. "Open the door," Tony yelled to the bus. The bus door flew opened allowing Tony to run up and in with no problem. Tony dropped Moira and collapsed on the floor; panting for any air he could get.
"Are you guys okay," Darby asked checking on Moira while Phooko checked Tony.
"Just tell me when they give the signal," Tony said in between pants.
In the school, James, Lexie, Carrie and now Tyler were walking through the school as Tyler killed any zombies in there way.
"So, Tyler," Lexie said making conversation, "how did you get here?"
"I was wandering around during the game and ended up in the kitchen. Next thing I know, these things are trying to make into an In N' Out Burger special." The gang finally made it back to the meetup room as Paris flirted with some of the girls and Alisa waited patiently.
"We're back," Carrie sang as they dropped the cloth on the floor.
"Good," Alisa said as she looked at the fabrics. She took her attention off the fabric and looked at Tyler. "How's he?"
"This is Tyler. He helped us out on they way back," James explained.
"Okay. Now, we need to tie the ends of the fabrics together to make a rope down." Alisa, James, Connie and Lexie started tying while Carrie fixed her hair, Paris continued to flirt and Tyler was staring at something outside. After what felt like an hour of work, they finally got the rope ready to go. Alisa waved out the window causing the bus to start and drive towards the school. Everything was going according as plan as the bus lined up perfectly under the window and the cloth rope landed on top of the of it. James tied the other end to the doorknob as they made their way down and onto the bus. Soon Connie, Carrie, Alisa, Lexie, Paris, James and Tyler made it on and into the bus as another survivor shimmy down the rope. After another minute or two, the rope began to stretch and rip before ripping completely and sending the climbing survivor plummeting to the bus, breaking his neck and becoming the neck item on the zombie buffet. With no way to escape, many survivors were stuck in the school as eleven students discuss what to do next.
"We need to leave, now," Moira said as zombies threw themselves at the bus.
"What about them," Alisa said.
"We can't save them if we're dead."
"For once I agree with her," Carrie said reluctantly. "We can always come back for them." Everyone thought about this for a minute before Tony put the bus in drive and headed of for the unknown. The bus managed to plow through the remaining zombies and make it to the street where more zombies either ate human remains or looked for humans. Some, like Lexie, turned away from the windows while other faced the truth that was in front of them.
"So, where do we go," Tony asked.
"My father has a hideout in the mountains," Carrie said. "It should be and two hour drive at this rate."
"Anyone care to drive if I get tired?"
"I do," Paris said taking in what is happening. Tony decided to turn on the radio to lighten the mood and luckily some soft jazz was playing as they headed to the hideout.
Tiger: What a great way to start off the new year. And now it's time to reply to all of your lovely reviews

No problem, Christmas was a few days away and you were probably busy spending time with family; I understand. Also, the James and Carrie relationship will hit its high point in the next chapter and I know how Alex feels since I'm near sighted myself.
enarmonios:
Indeed, Paris' flirting is funny to read at time and it will be kinda of a running joke. So in a way, Paris is like Johnny Bravo and if you don't know that show I suggest you watch it for the laughs. And I'm surprised you find Lexie and and Tony to be the coolest characters; maybe they'll become a thing romantically. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge.

Sorry, no new blossoming relationship yet but just wait they will come. And I hope you Merry Christmas as well.
Tiger: Now, as I said the deadline was December 31. Well it came and went so here's the answers to the questions. Almost everyone got the first one correct with Happy Days and a lot of you still watch it with your grandparents; good, that's good. The second question had its fair share of correctness as Pac Man was created from removing a slice of pizza. And thanks to Madork Gunna for providing addition information about it. Now, for the big question. A question you had to be lucky to get right. Now some of you thought Harley was my first girlfriend or my parrot. Sadly no, my first girlfriend had a name that I could barely pronounce and I HATE parrots. No one guessed swords and they were right to do so. I have one sword and her name is Violet. Yes, my sword is female just get over it. So that's leaves one answer, the name on my birth certificate. That's right, I was given the name of a motorcycle and had all thing a baby could have motorcycle related yet I don't ride one. So, will I be using my real name for now on? No, but if you want you can call me it I'd you feel like it. Anyway, I'm Prince TigerMasters saying Ciao!
