Highschool of the dead is owned by Madhouse.Let the story go on. The Great angel shall lead you!
When the hell broke loose teachers burst through the doors… well save one, The school nurse Dr. Shizuka Marikawa who is barely lucid as staff and students ran past the Infirmary with haste and suddenly silence nothing but the occasional student still running but one came in he was armed with what seems to be a curtain pole, Shizuka having not a clue what's transpired asks the boy "Hey what is going on?" The boy looked at her before replying "I don't know, one moment everything was fine the next people are eating each other and changing after being bitten" he spoke with haste clearly shook by the events.
Shizuka gained a thinking pose before grabbing a medical bag and placing medicine from the cabinet into the bag hoping it would have some help… This continued for about an hour before one of them was drawn by the sound of clicking from the glass bottles and the rattling of the pill bottles, It's now bloodied hands banging on the door clearly lacking any proper thought process to open the doors That should keep the freak out" the boy had a hopeful look before that was shattered just as the door suffered the same fate and the single undead shuffled towards the terrified boy who unintentionally lead it to the medic who was not only defenseless but unable to escape, the once living creature got closer to the boy who was unsuccessfully trying to push it away, unfortunately not only did it get close but also took a gaping bite out of his shoulder not enough to kill him but just as soon as it was about to rip the chunk out its skull was caved by a wooden sword.
Moments earlier
Saeko Busujima was by all accounts a perfect student. Good grades,High level of fitness, and very disciplined but under all that she had a heart of a sadist and perhaps the heart of a budding killer… but this moment changed all that as the world not only died but was buried and rotted to her and as such killing what was once her classmates and fellow students didn't bother her but for some reason she was looking for survivors, for who? She didn't know and she didn't know why either but what she did know was someone was still living she just had to find them. After a short time of wandering in the halls and eliminating the occasional undead that lurched her way she came across the Infirmary which she found the doors destroyed but the sounds of struggle caught her attention as a boy failed to protect himself against an undead as it bit into his shoulder.
Quickly she reacted and slammed her Hooden sword into the skull of the creature killing it and releasing the poor soul under it but just as quickly as she ended the boys terror it settled back in as he was bit and was going to die and become one of them "I can end your life here and stop you becoming like that" her hands gesture to the body lying just a foot away "It would be quick, and it would protect your honour as a man" the boy looked somewhat shocked but it quickly sunk in as the reality of the situation was daunting "Okay… I thank you for this" and he lurched forward just enough to expose the back of his skull, that's the last he saw as the strike was quick and painless. The Nurse looked distressed and shocked at how quick the whole event played out… "Miss Marikawa, we must go" she said as she stepped on what remained of the undead in the corridor "Yes!" The nurse blurted out as she stepped over the bodies.
Time skip
Saeko and Shizuka made their way over to the teachers lounge and Saeko pushed away the undead with her wooden sword and not striking the undead which perplexed the older woman "eh why dont you kill them too?" Saeko glanced back as she kept moving forward "Killing them all one by one will take too much time and we may be surrounded" "Oh-" Shizuka was interrupted by a scream echoing throughout from the staircase.
On the Roof
Takashi looked over and saw about 20 undead wandering the roof and some trying to get in lured by Rei's crying earlier but only blocked by chairs and desks to get any closer to them "Why?" Takashi's gaze then moved from the undead to Rei who looked at him with eyes of anger and resentment "Why did you help him?! He was going to be fine… he was going to make it with us-" she was about to continue but was interrupted by takashi I saw how fast they changed it happened to the PE teachers when this all began… and it was going to happen to Hisashi… Rei I know my words mean nothing right now but for what it's worth… I'm sorry" Rei looked up at him with shock but that quickly changed back into anger but this time it was less and the resentment was gone "But we can't stay here forever."
Rei stood up and dusted herself and grabbed her makeshift spear, takashi looked around to break the barricade and disable the undead in one motion only to see the fire hose and pointed to that, as if the message was telepathically conveyed she unravelled the house and gave Takashi the head as she made her way back to the pump and turned the valve as takashi blasted the undead with the high pressure water shooting from the fire hose. The barricade and all that behind that was wiped from the stairs and sent flying either disabling them or outright killing them with their skulls being caved from the tables flying at them…
Soon they were back on the run as they struck down the undead that was in the way, and the others forced them to stay on the move. Soon they reached the stairway expecting resistance only to find it empty of undead… so they kept moving but they stopped as a scream caught their attention, Takashi recognising the voice "Takagi!" He shouted as he sprinted down the stairs to find numerous undead and Kohta another classmate but he didnt know him well but didn't have any grief with him, He raised the bat quickly to strike down some of the undead only to find half of them gone as another girl… this one with purple hair struck down several with rapid strikes with a wooden sword. And Takagi now covered in blood from the onslaught of undead being killed in such a quick but brutal fashion was in shock, the nurse gave her a reassuring look and helped her back to her feet and Takashi stepped back beside to rei who arrived to help take the remaining undead "should we go inside before any more of them appear?" Takashi suggested and they all agree and enter locking the door behind them.
