"Do you see anything?" Mackenzie asked.

I grabbed a branched. "Hold on, I'm not at the top yet."

I continued to climb the tree. I finally reached the top and looked at the scenery.

"Now do you see anything?"

"No I don't…." I then spotted pink buildings. My eyes widened. "Wait I do, I think I know what that building is."

I hopped out of the tree and grabbed Mackenzie's wrist.

"Come on, I think I know where it is."

I then started running.

"Hikaru, wait, slow down."

I just ignored her and continued to run. We ran for a bit longer, then something popped out of the forest and we bumped into it. We fell to the ground.

"Ow." I moaned.

I put my hand to my head and looked up and saw Kaoru rubbing his head also.

"Dang it, that hurt."

My eyes widened. "Kaoru."

Kaoru looked at me, he smiled. "Hikaru."

We got up and hugged each other.

"Thank god you're alive." I said in his shoulder.

Scotty walked out of the forest. "Kaoru did you…."

He saw us and smiled. "Oh my god."

He ran up to us and hugged us. He looked over at. "Come here Mackenzie, join in."

Mackenzie smiled and got up and hugged us.

I started to get squished and uncomfortable. "Guys, can we separate now, I'm getting squished."

"Just a little longer." Scotty said.

We just stood there hugging.

"Ok that's enough." I pushed everyone away. "Come on, I think I saw Ouran, we can use that as shelter for a while."

Kaoru's smile grew. "Ouran's near here?"

I nodded. "Yah, I saw it while I was in a tree."

Kaoru looked at me confused.

"Don't asked."

Scotty looked at the sky. "Let's find some shelter for tonight. It's going to be dark soon, and it looks like there's going to be a storm."

"Yah, that'll be a good idea, I saw a shed in the woods about a mile back. We can stay in there." Kaoru said.

"Yah, that's a good idea." I said.

Kaoru started to lead the way to the shed.

Kaoru looked at Mackenzie and me and didn't see Brooke.

"Hey, where's Brooke?"

Mackenzie and I looked at each other sadly.

"Um, Brooke got to sick. She didn't make it."

Kaoru's face fell. "Oh."

The rest of the walk was quiet. We finally made it to the shed. Kaoru opened the door to the shed and we walked in.

"Not the fanciest place, but I think we'll be safe." I said.

I sat down on a hay bail and sighed. Mackenzie started to look around.

"Aw sweet." She said.

We looked at her.

She pulled out some food from the corner. "There's food and water." She checked the date. "And they haven't expired yet." She opened the can and smiled. "Pears, yes." She started eating pears.

I looked out the window and saw the rain started to come down.


A couple hours passed and we were getting ready for bed. Thunder boomed and I jumped a bit.

Kaoru looked at me. "Are you ok?"

"Yah, just the thunder caught me off guard." I looked out the window. "The thunder reminds me of Haruhi."

Kaoru looked at me with a sad expression.

I got up. "I'm going to get some air."

I walked to the front of the shed. The door was opening and closing because of the wind. Then a flash of lightning hit. My eyes widened, there was a herd of walkers in front of the shed. I quickly closed the door and pushed myself against the door. The walkers started moaning and pounding on the door.

"Kaoru." I said. "Kaoru."

Kaoru walked over to where I was. The pounding on the door was more forceful.

"Help, walkers are outside."

Kaoru's eyes widened and he helped me try to keep the door closed. The door was hit harder. Mackenzie and Scotty walked to where we were.

"What's going on?" She asked.

"Help us, walkers are trying to get in."

Their expressions turned frightened and helped. The rain was coming in as the walkers kept hitting the door.

"Don't worry, we're going to be fine." I reassured.

My feet started slipping from the mud, Kaoru grabbed my hand and I regained my footing. I used the rest of my strength to keep the door closed, Kaoru's and my hands never letting go of each other.


It was finally morning, I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. Everyone was still asleep. About four hours ago, the walkers finally left, but we stayed by the door just in case. I slowly stood up and cracked my back. I walked over to the food Mackenzie found and opened a can, peaches. I smiled and started eating. Kaoru sat next to me.

"Crazy night last night." He said.

I nodded. "Yah, too crazy."

I handed him toe can of peaches.

"No, you finish them, I'm fine."

"I don't need it, you take it."

Kaoru looked at me, then took the can. He smiled. "Thanks."

Mackenzie and Scotty woke up and we all ate breakfast. About an hour later, we were ready to go. Mackenzie packed up the food and water she found.

I kicked the door open. "Let's go."

We started making our way to Ouran. It was about a two hour walk to Ouran. When I saw the gates I smiled. I ran over to the gate, with the group following me. I tried to open the gate, but it was locked.

"Damn it." I growled.

"Why is the gate locked?" Kaoru asked.

"Probably because they thought this would keep the walkers out." I said.

Mackenzie looked at the gate. "I think we could jump over it, but we need to be careful."

Mackenzie slowly made her way over. We followed her over the fence. Scotty foot got caught and he slipped, but instead of landing on the ground, he landed on me."

"Wow, thanks for helping me Hikaru." He smiled.

"Get off of me." I growled.

Scotty got off of me and helped me up.

We walked to the front of Ouran and opened the door. We walked in and looked around.

"It's beaten down a bit, but it's in better shape than I thought." I said.

"Yah, I'm shocked as…."

Then there was a warrior yell and the next thing I know, I saw a blur move passed me, and a sharp pain hit my left eye.

I grabbed my left eye. "Ah!" I screamed.

"What's wrong?" Kaoru asked me in panic.

"My eye, something slashed my eye!"

Blood started coming between my fingers from the hand I held my eye with.

The blur came out again, but Kaoru grabbed his gun and shot them.

The person fell to the ground, Mackenzie walked over to the body and flipped them over onto his back.

Kaoru's eyes widened. "Bossanova?"

"Kasanoda, we heard a gunshot, is everything ok?"

That deep voice, it sounded familiar, we looked up at the top at the stairs.

His eyes widened. "Hikaru, Kaoru?"

"Mori senpai?"
