A/N: Hey guys, sorry for the late update…um…I really HATED writing this chapter…this chappy is rated M for a rape scene…I never want to have to write something like this ever AGAIN! I'll put a (X) where the bad part is going to be…I am so sorry…I was going to skip it but that would take a huge chunk of the chapter out making it way to short so once again I'm really sorry.

(Z-day +1 05:05 a.m.)

A jet soared over the now ruined city, taking pictures of ruined cars, burning buildings, and anything else affected by the Zombies. It started moving towards the bridge to see a motorcycle with two people on it. One was a girl with long blonde hair in a side ponytail and hazel eyes. The other one was a boy with short teal-hair and teal eyes. The girl looked at the jet and smiled widely, so did the teal-haired boy.

The girl waved to the jet as it zoomed past them, taking a picture of them as it flew by.

I stayed up late the night before everything came to an end…

XxXxXxXxXxX

(Z-day 1:33 p.m.)

A teal haired boy leaned on the railing, sakura petals brushing past his face, but he paid no attention to them.

"That's so stupid." A girl said from behind him.

"What do you want?" The boy asked, turning around.

"Every time you have to face something you don't like you come to this stupid staircase. It's like your own little pity corner."

That's right…everything was normal up until then…I was in the sun, enjoying the luxury of feeling sorry for myself. If there was a ranking of the most pathetic high-schoolers in the world, I'd rank fourth. But at that time, everything was already coming to an end. And none of us ever saw it coming.

A man walked into the fence with his arms out stretched as Mikuo continued to lean on the rail. One of the teachers, Piko Utatane, grabbed the man and banged him against the fence.

"Hey now! Mr. Utatane, violence is…" Miki started to say when the man sunk its teeth into Piko's vein, making Piko fall over in pain and scream as his arm continued to bleed.

Mikuo backed up in horror.

The students stared in horror at the intercom, waiting for something to happen while they heard screaming sounds coming from the speaker. A piece of chalk fell from the teachers desk, and the students went wild trying to get out of the school.

A Zombie sunk it's teeth into Len's arm, and Mikuo charged at it with his bat.

Now that I think about it, I should've just forced my way to the outside no matter what. But we didn't have time to think, so we went to the roof. Seemed like a good idea at the time.

"NER-" Mikuo started to yell, but was interrupted by Len.

"NERU!" Len yelled, taking Mikuo's bat and slamming the Zombies head against the wall.

(Z-day 03:05 p.m.)

"Why…why is this happening?" Neru asked.

"There has to be a reason…maybe if we can figure out what's causing it, we can stop it. Or at least protect ourselves." Len said, as the Zombies kept trying to get through the barricade they had built on the roof.

Len then started coughing up blood, and he looked up, with dark circles under his eyes and breathing hoarsely. Neru sat next to him, staring with devastation and holding his hand.

Whatever Len says is always right…

Len threw up a huge amount of blood.

I'm one to believe that too…but I already knew that the world we knew was already broken…

Len fell to his side, clutching his chest and screaming in pain as Neru fumbled, trying to find a way to help him.

"I want to stay myself…until the end…" Len said, smiling.

"DON'T DIE!" Neru screamed, as Len stopped moving.

He got up, limping towards Neru as one of them. Mikuo gripped his bat, ran towards Len, and-

Tei sliced off the head of a Zombie that was about to bite Haku, and started finishing off the other Zombies in the room.

Kaito shot his nail gun, hitting a Zombie in the head.

"Gotcha!" Kaito cried.

"TAKE THIS!" Mikuo yelled, pointing the hose at the barricade and knocking all of the Zombies off the steps.

(Z-day 03:50 p.m.)

That's right…at that moment, pretending that things were normal was even more dangerous. Everything was different. Walking down the school hallway, the weapons in our hands, It wasn't just a school hallway anymore. I used to think high school was hell. And now it was.

XxXxXxXxXxXxX

(Z-day 10:32 p.m.)

Neru and Mikuo watched as hundreds of Zombies marched down the road.

"I wonder if anyone will come to rescue us…" Neru said, safely on the motorcycle with Mikuo.

"They're not coming." Mikuo said emotionlessly.

Neru turned to him angrily.

"Why not? How can you be so sure?" Neru asked angrily.

"Just like the helicopters we saw on the rooftop of the school. They can't afford to be rescuing us! And maybe they'll never be able to." Mikuo said.

"Never? Then what are we supposed to do without some kind of help?" Neru asked, devastated.

"We'll do what we can. That's about it." Mikuo said.

Neru pouted and glared at him.

"God, you are so predictable! The glass isn't half empty and with you there is no glass. You've been this way since kindergarten!" Neru said, crossing her arms and blushing a bit.

"I only told you the truth!" Mikuo said sternly, staring angrily at Neru.

"Yeah well you don't have to be such a bummer about doing it, you know!" Neru yelled, leaning closer to Mikuo.

Neru then turned her head and saw Zombies going up the road where they were. Mikuo noticed them too.

"Let's go." Neru said seriously, dropping the subject.

Mikuo nodded.

"You're right." He said, and drove off, leaving the Zombies behind.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxX

"But no matter where we go we're going to need a plan. Teams. We need to team up." Tei said calmly.

Everyone gathered their weapons.

"Let's go." Mikuo said.

They ran through the school courtyard, killing any Zombies in their way.

Making moves then meant that we were getting ready to face the real crisis. We ran through the school filled with yelling voices, screaming, life and death all mixed together. And then we were outside. It was more of the same. Just more of it.

"They're not people anymore…they're not humans anymore…THEY'RE NOT ALIVE ANYMORE!" Haku yelled, running over the Zombies and ramming through the gate.

XxXxXxXxXxXxX

(Z-day 11:45 p.m.)

On the road, cars were honking their horns, and traffic was all over.

"It's dangerous to go outside! Do not go outside your car no matter what! I repeat, do not go outside your vehicle no matter what!" A man on a megaphone yelled to all the people on the street.

"If we move any slower we'll be going in reverse…" Tei said.

"At this rate, I'm not sure we can cross the bridge before dawn." Miku said.

Then they heard Kaito's stomach growl. Kaito looked down at his stomach.

"SHUT UP! BE QUIET! YOU'RE SO DISGUISTING!" Miku yelled at him.

"I can't help it…I've been so hungry…ever since I started PX-90..." Kaito complained.

They then heard gunshots out the window and looked to see police shooting a Zombie that was limping towards them. Another one came, and the police immediately shot it. Rin and the girl with the long French braid sitting next to her screamed and covered their ears. Kiyoteru then went up to them.

"It's ok!" Kiyoteru told them.

The two girls looked up at him.

"It's safe in here, it's ok…" Kiyoteru said, hugging the two girls.

"Mr. Hiyama…" The girl with the French braid said softly.

"You have nothing to worry about my darlings…there there…it's alright…" He said, a malicious grin on his face.

Tei, Miku, and Kaito glared at him as everyone else in the back of the bus clapped.

(Z-day 06:42 p.m.)

"There! It's been decided. The majority of the bus seems to have made that quite clear, yes?" Kiyoteru said as the rest of the bus clapped for him.

Neru, filled with anger, jumped out of the bus and into the city.

"Neru!" Mikuo called after her.

"NO WAY! Nuh uh, I am not staying here with HIM!" Neru yelled, facing Mikuo angrily.

"Wait! Get back on the bus, I don't want you to leave!" Mikuo said, grabbing her wrist.

"That's why I told you you'd regret this!"

"No! We'll both regret this!" Mikuo yelled.

They then heard a bus horn from somewhere down the road and Tei immediately turned to Haku.

"OK, YOU NEED TO PUNCH IT!" Tei yelled at her.

Haku put her hands on the wheel, and the bus filled with Zombies tipped over and crashed .

Basically I didn't know that the world I already knew…was a memory now…

"Mikuo! Are you alright?" Tei called through the rubble.

Zombies then started to climb out of the flaming bus.

"The police station! Meet at the eastern police station!" Mikuo yelled.

"What time?" Tei yelled back.

"Seven! If not today, then tomorrow at the same time!" Mikuo yelled, before he was cut off by rubble falling in the area where he was speaking.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxX

(Z-day+1 00:23 a.m.)

A light flickered on and off, showing bloodstains on a nearby ally wall.

Neru and Mikuo rode through the now deserted city. They passed two cats that were licking blood off the street next to a woman's purse that she must've dropped. In a deserted restaurant, there were cracked bowls, cups, broken chairs, and bloodstains all over the place.

"There's no one here…" Neru mumbled.

"Did they get away? Or did they die?" Mikuo asked.

"If they died, they'd become them!" Neru exclaimed.

"Maybe they found others. The ones that are still alive." Mikuo said.

Neru sighed and suddenly perked up and pointed ahead of them.

"Mikuo! Look at that!" She exclaimed, pointing at a car with it's headlights still on and sitting there.

Both of them grinned widely.

"No license, no helmet, stolen bike. I'm just asking to be arrested, aren't I?" Mikuo joked.

"Oh what, after fighting that many of them? Don't tell me you're still afraid of the police." Neru said, joking as well.

"You've got a point!" Mikuo said, and started driving towards the police car.

When they got to it, they saw both of the police-men dead, their heads squashed between the seat and the airbag. Blood was everywhere and both of their eyes were wide and lifeless.

"You've gotta be kidding me…" Mikuo groaned, and then saw Neru walking towards the police car.

"Neru! Wait! There's leaking gas from that car! Mm…leeks…how I crave them…anyway, don't do it!" Mikuo called after her.

"There could be something in there that we could use!" Neru yelled back with an angry expression.

"What's wrong with you? This is Armageddon, man up!" Neru said, before starting to inspect the car.

Mikuo sighed and shook his head, remaining on the motorcycle. Neru shuffled through the two corpses, looking for something useful. Eventually, she found a pair of handcuffs, a beating stick, and a revolver.

"Do you know how to use it?" Neru asked, gesturing to the gun.

"I've watched enough T.V., how hard could it be? And what do they say? Don't aim unless you plan to shoot…" Mikuo said, picking up the gun.

He held it in the palm of his hand for a few moments, studying it.

"What's the matter?" Neru asked, seeing the troubled look on Mikuo's face.

"It's just a lot heavier than I thought it'd be…" Mikuo said.

"Of course it is, it's the real thing." Neru said.

Mikuo studied it more, and popped open where the bullets go, seeing only five slots.

"It can only shoot five times?" Mikuo asked, confused.

"Mikuo, here." Neru said, handing him some bullets she found.

"The grip on the other gun was broken, but I think the bullets are still good. They're bloody, but still useable." Neru said, wiping some blood off of her hands.

Mikuo started to chuckle, and Neru looked at him.

"I'm impressed!" Mikuo said.

Neru gave him an annoyed look.

"My dad collects guns, so, I've been around them my whole life. Besides, do you think I'd freak out over a little blood now?" Neru asked, putting some extra bullets in her pocket.

Mikuo put the revolver in his pocket. They then got back on the motorcycle and Neru picked up the bat and staff.

"Should we get rid of these?" She asked Mikuo.

"No, let's keep them until we can get some target practice." Mikuo said.

"Good point. And don't you feel better now with something that has a little more oomph?" Neru asked, grinning maliciously.

Mikuo gave her an annoyed look. Without answering, he drove away on the motorcycle with Neru in her usual seat behind him. Behind them, Zombies started coming out of shops to follow the sound their motorcycle made. Later, Mikuo and Neru arrived at a self-service gas station.

(Z-day +1 03:23 a.m.)

"I wonder if they've still got gas." Neru wondered.

"They say in a gas station has a tank that's big enough to hold enough gasoline to fill up 1,000 cars, so, they should have some." Mikuo said, he then started walking towards the gas pump when he suddenly stopped.

"What's the matter?" Neru asked.

"This gas station is self-service! We can't get gas unless we put money or a card in there!" Mikuo said angrily.

"Then put it in there!" Neru said.

"With the money I have, the only thing we're going to get out of this pump is fumes!" Mikuo said.

"You're the worst…" Neru mumbled with an annoyed expression.

Mikuo turned on her angrily.

"I'M SORRY, OK? I GUESS LEN WOULD HAVE THE CASH!" Mikuo yelled at her.

Neru started to tear up when he mentioned Len. Extremely angry, Neru started to yell back at Mikuo with a tear going down her cheek.

"WHERE DID THAT COME FROM? WHEN DID I EVER COMPARE YOU TO LEN?" Neru yelled.

"YOU SAID I'M THE WORST DIDN'T YOU? THAT MEANS SOMEONE IS THE BEST, RIGHT? YOU MUST'VE MEANT LEN!" Mikuo yelled back.

Neru gave Mikuo a look of pure hatred.

"I didn't then, but I do now!" Neru said with a grudge in her voice.

Mikuo then yanked out the palm of his hand in front of Neru which made her flinch. She then noticed he wasn't going to hit her.

"What do you want?" She asked weakly.

"Money. I need to borrow some!" Mikuo said angrily.

"I kinda…I kinda left my wallet in my bag…" Neru mumbled, looking away.

"Ah, Jesus! And you're riding my ass?" Mikuo yelled.

He then sighed.

"Just wait here. Scream if something happens." Mikuo said, taking his bat and heading towards the store.

Mikuo walked into the store and looked around the dark room.

"Hello? Is anybody here?" Mikuo asked.

Nothing happened. He sighed with relief and walked over to the cash register and pressed the button that releases the money, but nothing happened.

"Not working…oh well, I've always wanted to do this anyway!" Mikuo said, lifting the bat and smirking before smashing the register with his bat.

Outside, Neru flinched at the loud noise.

"What is he…?" Neru mumbled to herself.

"He's having a field day, huh?" Neru said with a bored expression.

Neru remembered everything that had happened in the last few hours. Or was it days? Neru didn't even know as she leaned against the gas pump. Neru sighed and then started chuckling to herself.

"C'mon, Neru, stop giving the guy such a hard time…" Neru mumbled to herself.

(X) Suddenly, Mikuo heard Neru scream while he was picking up change off the floor.

"Oh no!" Mikuo yelled, before running outside.

He saw a man holding Neru by the waste no matter how much she struggled.

"Hey, quit squirming!" The man yelled at her.

He then put a knife to her throat with a crazy look in his eyes.

"Neru! What's wro-WHAT THE?" Mikuo yelled seeing the situation they were in.

The man then started to laugh psychotically, the knife grazing Neru's throat.

"Hey, you've got a fucking hot piece of ass here, you know that?" The man said while laughing.

"You let her go!" Mikuo yelled, gripping his bat.

The man then laughed again.

"Why would I do that? You think I'd go for one of those stinky-ass Zombie bitches? Think again, mother fucker!" The man said, gripping Neru tighter making her gasp.

The man once again laughed psychotically.

"Jesus man, are you crazy? That it?" Mikuo asked.

"Crazy? Hell yeah I am! My family became them, right in front of my own eyes! I had to…I had to smash everyone's head! My father, my mother, MY GRANDMOTHER, EVEN MY LITTLE SISTER, TOO! How can I be normal? YOU THINK I WOULDN'T BE FUCKED UP AFTER THA-" He was cut off mid-speech when he started laughing crazily again, taking the knife away from Neru's throat.

Neru took the opportunity and shoved the man, making him loose his grip on her.

"MIKUO!" She screamed, running towards Mikuo, but the man grabbed her again.

"NERU!" Mikuo yelled.

Neru kept screaming, and the man laughed.

"I sure like the way you scream, and the way you feel! Quite a handful there…" The man said.

He then looked at Mikuo.

"You're fucking her, aren't you? I bet you're sticking it to this hot little bitch day and night! Wait a minute…holy shit, you haven't! You haven't got on this yet! What a fucking pussy, man!"

"AH! MIKUO!" Neru screamed.

Mikuo then started walking towards the man with his bat.

"HEY! Drop the bat! If you don't, I'll kill this slut! And the bike, give me your fucking bike, man!" The man yelled, keeping the knife at Neru's throat.

"It's empty." Mikuo said.

"I heard you in the fucking store! Put the cash you got in the slot! AND PUMP SOME MOTHER FUCKING GAS!" The man yelled.

Mikuo then threw the bat, making a loud echo. The Zombies from the other town heard the sound and started moving towards it. Mikuo slid the money into the slot and heard the pump begin to speak.

"Please touch the anti-static sheet before you start pumping the gas." the machine said.

Mikuo started to pump the gas into the motorcycle, not saying anything.

"Hey. Will you let us go now?" Mikuo asked.

"You can have the bike, we need to see if our families are alright." Mikuo said seriously.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP! I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR PARENTS! They're gonna end up just like my family did you mother fucking retard!" The man said.

Mikuo put the lid back on the gas tank for the motorcycle.

"It's done." Mikuo said.

"Away from the bike. AND START WALKING!" The man yelled.

Mikuo took one step and stopped, and started running toward the man and Neru.

"COME ON, MAN-" Mikuo started to yell but was interrupted.

"DON'T TAKE ONE MORE FUCKING STEP!" The man yelled.

Mikuo froze in his tracks, not daring to move.

"Dude, I'm begging you-" Mikuo said, taking one more step and was interrupted again.

"SHUT UP OR I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU MOTHER FUCKER!" The man yelled.

Mikuo yanked out the revolver from his pocket and ran right in front of the man, the revolver not even a centimeter from the mans shoulder. The man gasped and froze at Mikuo got ready to pull the trigger.

"I've never shot a gun before, but somehow, I don't think I'd miss at this range." Mikuo said, keeping the gun where it was with his finger on the trigger.

"The gas…the gasoline will blow us all up…" The man stuttered.

Mikuo bowed his head, his hair covering his eyes.

"It's better than somebody stealing my girl!" Mikuo said, before pulling the trigger.

And the bullet soared out of the revolver and into the man shoulder, making a huge bloodstain on the mans shirt where he was shot. The man fell onto his back and Neru ran to Mikuo right when she got the chance. The man then started to scream in pain.

"ASSHOLE! BLEEDING, I'M BLEEDING!" The man screamed, holding his shoulder.

Neru then walked up to him.

"YOU BETTER BE GLAD THAT I DON'T SHOOT YOU, YOU ASSHOLE!" Neru screamed, raising her staff.

"Stop it, Neru." Mikuo said, getting onto the motorcycle.

"BUT HE-" Neru started to say but was cut off by Mikuo.

"We don't have time to be screwing around with this guy. Besides, company's coming." Mikuo said, and Neru gasped when she saw hundreds of Zombies making their way towards them.

Neru glared one more time at the man and hopped onto the motorcycle behind Mikuo.

"HEY! WHERE ARE YOU GOING? YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME HERE! WHAT KIND OF FUCKERS ARE YOU?" The man yelled desperately.

Neru just glared at him.

"NO! COME BACK! COME BAAACK!" The man screamed with tears in his eyes.

He then turned his head to see the Zombies walking towards him.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" The man screamed as the Zombies ate him alive. (X)

(Z-day +1 05:40 a.m.)

Mikuo and Neru road on the highway, and Mikuo didn't seem to look or say anything.

"What's the matter, Mikuo? You're so quiet." Neru asked.

"I was just thinking. Stuff like that is gonna happen over and over again from now on." Mikuo said.

"You think so?" Neru asked.

"I mean…I guess so…" Neru said, closing her eyes and leaning on Mikuo's back.

"Don't worry about it, it's over now." Mikuo said, blushing, as he continued to drive on, now with a content, yet dreamy smile on his face.

There's no way it's just nothing. It's only been one day since the beginning of the end. But I've already killed a person. There's no way it's just nothing…

A jet flew by the bridge that Mikuo and Neru were now riding on, and Neru waved to it as it snapped a picture of them.

Me: Phew, well, that took longer than expected. Once again I am seriously sorry about that one rapist part…I didn't want to make this too short. Thanks for the understanding! I really hated this chapter…Review please!
