Hello my loyal readers! Braking news, zombies are attacking. You need to board up your house, barricade your doors, and guard your loved ones. It's chapter 3 of Jinchuuriki of the Dead.
Those of you that guessed who Yuuki's ex is, two things. First, if you said Tsunoda You're correct! Second, Kyoko and Rika will be put in the harem!
So now, Naruto's new harem: Saya x Seako x Shizuka x Yuuki x Misuzu x Toshimi x Kyoko x Rika
You may have noticed that I took Rei out of the harem. That's because I don't think Naruto should have all the women to himself, so Rei's going to be with Takashi.
Anyway, on with the read!
Chapter 3: Spring of the Dead
Naruto and the teachers are seen walking toward the front gate, ready to take care of the problem. Along the way, Naruto was told that it was a strange man, who was trespassing on school property. This information made Naruto curious. After all, it's not everyday someone trespasses.
(School Staircase)
Unknown to Naruto, his best friend Takashi was leaning on the staircase railing with a gloomy look on his face as he stared out into the distance.
(Flashback!)
"You know we're gonna get married one day." A young Rei said with a happy smile.
"Really? Do you really mean that?" A young Takashi asked.
"Yeah, pinky promise, cross my heart..." Rei began as she held out her pinky.
"...and hope to die." Takashi finished as they wrapped their pinkies together
(Time Skip!)
"What do mean you have to repeat the grade? You're a straight A student." Takashi asked a saddened Rei with Naruto by his side.
"You guys just wouldn't understand." Rei replied as she walked away.
(Time Skip!)
"We're in the same class again? Cool." Hisashi said with a calm smile.
"Yeah, that's awesome." Naruto said as he sat behind Hisashi.
(Time Skip!)
Takashi is standing on one side of a street while on the other side he sees Rei and Hisashi, together. Rei soon notices him and gives him a look that said she was sorry.
(Flashback End!)
"Pinky promise, cross my heart and hope to die. Yeah right." Takashi said quietly to himself.
"That's so stupid." A voice said rudely, making Takashi turn to see the smartest girl in school and one his close friends, Saya Takagi.
"What do you want?" Takashi asked dully.
"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, good god. Look at you..." Saya said as she walked toward him. "...The first semester has just started. How are you ever going to make it though the year if you're here mopping around all the time?" Saya asked as she leaned forward, accidentally giving Takashi a good view of her cleavage, making him turn away.
"I could say the same to you. The 5th periods not even over yet." Takashi said, making Saya scoff.
"That's okay because I'm genius. Unlike you, who got into this school by dumb luck." Saya stated.
"Takagi, why do you always dis me like that?" Takashi asked emotionlessly.
"Because I don't like stupid people." Saya replied bluntly.
"Especially those ones who can't admit that their stupid. I mean, you're pretty stupid, but at least you know you are. So if I tell you that you're stupid, maybe by some miracle you'll be less stupid, stupid." Saya explained, only for Takashi to sigh and return back to his thoughts.
"Grow up. Mopping because your little friend dumped you? Stupid." Saya said as she left.
Takashi continued to stare out into the distance as he remembered what Rei said to him about her feelings for him.
(Flashback!)
"Listen, it's just that...there was a time when I felt that way, but you never seemed to notice. So..." Rei said sadly before walking away, leaving Takashi to stare at where she once stood.
(Flashback End!)
"So what?" Takashi asked himself before a noise caught his attention. Turning toward the front gate, Takashi saw a strange man repeatedly walking into the gate.
"Who's that? Trespasser?" Takashi questioned before seeing several teachers along with Naruto walking toward the gate. "Wait, Naruto? This must be big if they have Naruto with them." Takashi said to himself as he watched and waited to see what happened.
(Front Gate)
Naruto and the teachers are walking to the front gate, where they see a strange man repeatedly walking into the gate, but the minute they get with in 100 feet of the man Naruto picked up a smell that made him put up his guard.
'Something's not right here. This guy wreaks of blood and death. I don't know why, but I've got a bad feeling about something' Naruto thought to himself as they stood in front of the gate.
"You there, what do you think you're doing?!" Kyoko Hayashi demanded, getting the man to stop. "This is a private school. Please leave or we'll be forced to call the police." Kyoko finished, only for the man to start walking into the gate again.
"I don't think he got the message." Naruto stated dryly.
"Let me handle this Hayashi-san." Teshima said as he rolled up his sleeves.
Teshima walked over to the man before grabbing him through the gate and pulling him in, slamming his head on the bars and surprising the others.
'Didn't the principle say to keep things quiet?' Naruto thought with a sweat drop.
"Teshima-san, there's no call for violence!" Kyoko said worriedly.
Suddenly, the man grabbed Teshima's arm and bit off a chunk of flesh. Teshima yelled out in pain before falling to the ground, holding his wounded arm and dying in a second.
(With Takashi)
Takashi was frozen in shock at what he just saw.
One second, Teshima had the strange man pulled into the gate and the next thing they knew, the man bit out a piece of Teshima's arm.
"What the hell just happened?" Takashi asked no one in particular.
(Front Gate)
Naruto, Kyoko, and the other two teachers all stood over the now dead Teshima.
'What the hell was that? All that guy did was just bite Teshima-sensei and he died on the spot. What the hell?' Naruto thought as his mind was trying to process what just happened.
"Oh my god, he's dead." An old teacher said in shock.
"No, that's impossible. He was just..." Kyoko trailed off as Teshima's fingers twitched. "Teshima-san, are you okay?"
Teshima's eyes then opened, making Kyoko sigh in relief. However, Naruto noticed something was different about Teshima and prepared himself to attack.
"Oh thank goodness Teshima-san, I was worried there for a minu-" Kyoko began, only to be interrupted.
Teshima suddenly grabbed Kyoko's shirt and pulled her down. He was about to bite into her neck, only to be stopped by Naruto kicking him off. Kyoko and the other teachers were shocked to see what almost happened. Teshima was about to bite Kyoko's neck, but Naruto saved her just in time.
Before anyone could say a word, Teshima suddenly grabbed one of the other teachers legs and bit it, making the guy fall to the ground in pain before dying with Teshima still chewing on his leg.
The other teacher quickly picked up the other teachers fallen pole and knocked Teshima off of the other teacher. He bent down to check on him, only to have him grab his arm and bite into his shoulder, making the teacher scream in pain. Teshima soon got back up jumped on the teacher and bit into his neck.
"Damn it! Hayashi-sensei, get out of here and find a place to hide!" Naruto ordered, making Kyoko look at him like he was crazy.
"What about you?" Kyoko asked in fear.
"Don't worry about me, I'll handle these guys. Just go and find a place to hide and wait there." Naruto ordered again, getting a nod from Kyoko before she ran off to do as ordered.
Naruto then turned to face the now undead teachers and drew his sword. "They" soon charged toward Naruto all at once.
Naruto quickly dodged the first one and moved behind "it" before hitting "it" in the back of the skull with a very hard hit using the bottom of his sword, killing "it" instantly.
The next one came at Naruto's left, only for Naruto to turn toward "it" with his sword in the air before bring it down and cutting "it" in half.
Naruto then turned to the undead "Teshima" and charged toward him with his sword pointed right at his chest. Naruto thrust his blade and stabbed Teshima in the heart, only for him to be surprised that he was still alive and trying to grab Naruto.
"Shit! Well, if stabbing you won't work, then how's about this?!" Naruto yelled as he yanked his sword out and quickly cut off "Teshima's" head, making the head and body fall with a sickening thud.
Naruto looked at the bodies of the former teachers and took note of how he killed them.
"Looks like the only way to kill them is by injuring their heads." Naruto said to himself before looking behind him and seeing more coming toward the gate.
Cursing under his breath, Naruto quickly sheathed his sword and ran inside the school.
'I've got to hurry and warn everyone before it's too late!' Naruto thought to himself as he ran fast as he could.
(With Takashi)
Takashi is seen running through the halls as fast as he can. After what he saw, he had the same idea as Naruto and went looking for their friends Rei and Hisashi since they have the same class together right now.
Takashi soon finds the room and opens the door quickly, gaining the whole classes attention. Takashi ignored them and the teacher as he walked over to Rei and grabbed her arm.
"Come with me, we're gonna get out of here." Takashi said as he pulled Rei up and making Saya stand too.
"W-What are you talking about?" Rei asked, getting out of his grip.
"Dude, what are doing?" Hisashi asked as he stood up.
"People just got killed by the front gate, no bullshit." Takashi replied, surprising Hisashi.
"Are you serious?" Hisashi asked.
"Yeah, I'm making shit like that up." Takashi replied, not noticing that Kohta was listening from his seat.
"Jesus, what's going on!? I can never understand yo-" Rei began, only to be silenced by a hard slap from Takashi, surprising her and everyone else.
"Listen! Listen to me!" Takashi yelled before facing Hisashi, giving him a serious look.
They were soon walking through the hall at a fast pace.
"You still haven't told me what's going on." Rei said sternly.
"Their was someone at the front gate. Naruto and some PE teachers went to check it out and something happened. And now those PE teachers are killing each other!" Takashi explained.
"That's insane. Wait, Naruto? Is he okay?" Rei asked worriedly.
"Yeah, he's fine. He took care of the teachers and was able to save Hayashi-sensei." Takashi replied, making Rei sigh in relief before he went on. "But even so, I'd rather get out of here before more show up and sends the school into panic."
They continued down the hall before Hisashi stopped and opened a broom closet.
"What? You forgot something?" Takashi asked as he and Rei stopped.
"If what you told me is true, we'll need some weapons." Hisashi replied as he pulled out a broom and gave braking off the handle before giving it to Rei. "Here Rei."
"What about you?" Takashi asked, now holding a metal bat.
"I've got a black belt in karate. Now come on, we gotta get out of this school." Hisashi said quickly.
"Let's call the police, we'll talk to my father." Rei said.
"Heh, school rules are there to be broken, right?" Takashi said as he handed Rei his phone.
Rei dialed the number and waited for someone to pick up. Rei's eyes suddenly widen.
"No way." Rei said in disbelief.
"What is it?" Hisashi asked worried.
"The line is full, but that's impossible." Rei answered in shock, just as the intercom came on and the principles voice was heard.
"This announcement is for all the students. An emergency situation is taking place inside the school, right now." The principle announced over the intercom.
"Looks like they finally noticed." Takashi said with a serious look.
(With Naruto)
"I repeat, a violent situation is taking place inside the school." The principle continued.
Naruto came to a complete halt in his running with a look of anger mixed with fear at hearing the intercom.
"Damn it, I was too late." Naruto growled out before he started running again. "I've gotta find my friends and get out of here."
(Elsewhere)
"All the students must follow your teachers instructions and evacuate-" The principle stopped, with crashing noises being heard.
Kohta is seen crawling through a door, without others noticing.
"Hirano-san." A voice said, starling Kohta before turning to see it was Saya.
"Hey Takagi-san?" Kohta said with a shy look.
"Be quiet and come on." Saya said as she walked away, with Kohta right behind.
(With Takashi, Hisashi, and Rei)
"Get away from me, get back." The principle suddenly said in fear.
"It's happening." Takashi stated, just before the intercom continued.
(With Shizuka)
"AHHH AHHH, HELP! HELLLP! HELLLLLP!" The principle yelled before everything went silent.
Shizuka was sleeping peacefully before the announcement started. She soon woke up with a yawn.
"What's going on? I was having such a lovely dream about me and Naruto." Shizuka said to herself with a blush appearing on her face from remembering the dream.
(Class Buildings)
Silence filled the school. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. A shocked teacher dropped his chalk. The chalk looked like it was falling in slow motion before hitting the ground, breaking on impact. As if a gun was shot, all hell broke loose with students and teachers all panicking as they started flooding the halls, fearing for their very lives.
(With Takashi, Hisashi, and Rei)
"This way." Hisashi said as he started running.
"Where are you going, we gotta get out of this place?" Takashi asked.
"The building with classrooms is too crowded. We gotta go through the management building." Hisashi answered.
"Hisashi is right, shut up and come on." Rei said, following Hisashi.
"Fine, but what about Naruto? We can't just leave him here." Takashi asked as they ran through the empty hall.
"Don't worry about him, he can take care of himself. Besides, knowing Naruto, he's looking for us and the rest of his friends." Hisashi answered, getting Takashi and Rei both to smirk.
"You're right. If we know Naruto, we'll see him soon enough." Takashi said, as they continued running.
(With Naruto)
Naruto ran through an empty hall as he decided to do the same as Hisashi, Takashi, and Rei. He ran before turning the corner and seeing a bunch of students that got turned into "them". Naruto then looked the way he came and saw more of "them" coming.
"Heh, looks like you're gonna have to fight your way through Kit." Kurama said, with a huge grin.
"I don't have much choice, now do I." Naruto said, not bothering to mentally speak to Kurama.
He drew his sword and charged at the undead horde, cutting down any that was in his line of sight. Naruto would never admit this to his friends, but he was actually excited about killing most of these guys.
(With Takashi, Hisashi, and Rei)
Hisashi lead Takashi and Rei outside toward the other side of the walkway, only to come to an abrupt stop as someone walked into their path.
"That's Wakisaka-sensei, what's wrong with him?" Rei asked with a worried expression.
Hisashi eyed the man in front of them before looking down at his left leg and noticing the large bite mark. "Wakisaka" soon ran at them, aiming right for Rei.
"Get away from me!" Rei yelled as she swiped at "Wakisaka" with the broom handle.
"Rei, stab him! Don't hold back!" Hisashi yelled, surprising Rei as she was trying to hold the former teacher back with the broom handle before noticing the tip at the end was sharp.
The former teacher tried to force Rei down, but she pushed him off before gaining a serious look.
"Don't fuck with me!" Rei yelled as she continuously struck the former teacher. "I'm the VP of the Martial Arts Club!" Rei finished before finally stabbing the former teacher in the chest.
"Yes!" Takashi cheered.
Rei was about to pull out the broom handle, only to be stopped by the still alive teacher. Rei tried to pull out of his chest, but couldn't. The former teacher suddenly forced Rei to the ground.
"W-What?! I stabbed him in the heart, why is he still moving?!" Rei yelled as she grabbed the broom and tried to keep the dead teacher away from her.
"Rei!" Hisashi yelled as he ran up and grabbed the teacher from behind in a headlock. "Rei, pull it out!"
Rei did as ordered and yanked the spear out of the former teacher.
"Hisashi, get away from him!" Takashi ordered, trying warn his friend.
"Don't worry, I can take him." Hisashi said confidently.
However, what they weren't expecting was for the former teacher to start turning his head, shocking all of them.
"What the fuck?" Hisashi questioned as he tried to hold the teacher.
The former teacher soon turned his head far enough and bit into Hisashi's arm, making him yell out in pain.
"Hey, get off him!" Takashi yelled, hitting the former teacher with the bat.
"Hisashi!" Rei screamed as she stabbed the former teacher, but nothing was working. "Jesus Christ, Why won't he just die already?!"
"Oh no, I knew it. He is dead. He's dead but still moving!" Takashi yelled, as he finally figured out what's going on now.
Suddenly, the dead teacher bit down harder on Hisashi's arm, drawing more blood and making Hisashi yell in anguish.
"Hisashi!" Rei yelled in fear before turning to Takashi with a pleading look. "Takashi, help him! Don't just stand there, do something! Do something will you!"
Takashi then ran at the dead teacher with his bat raised over his head and bringing it down, smashing the dead teachers head, killing him.
"Hisashi, are you okay?" Rei asked worried.
"Son-of-a-bitch just bit me, no big deal." Hisashi answered reassuringly.
They heard a scream and looked down to see dead students killing other students.
"Oh my god." Rei said shocked.
"We can handle one of them, but there's no way..." Takashi said, letting end linger.
"The roof, we need to get to the roof and barricade ourselves until help arrives." Hisashi said.
They agreed and ran for the roof of the school.
(With Naruto)
Naruto was running and cutting down all of "them" that came at him. He soon runs through some doors that lead to the library. Looking around, he saw that the place was filled with nothing but dead. He was about head out, but something caught his eye. Naruto looked and saw two people he was looking for. The two BFF's of the school, Misuzu Ichijou and Toshimi Niki.
Misuzu and Todhimi are seen running while holding hands.
"We should be okay if we stick together Misuzu." Todhimi said.
"Of course, because we're BFF's Toshimi." Misuzu said.
Suddenly, they came to a stop. They looked down and saw that one "them" had grabbed Toshimi's leg. "It" tried to pull Toshimi down, but Misuzu stepped in next to her BFF with an angry look.
"Let go of my friend you ugly bastard!" Misuzu yelled, kicking the undead down the steps taking several of "them" along with "it".
Toshimi was about thank her BFF, but then they looked around them and saw that "they" had surrounded them. The girls held on to each other closed their eyes and screamed, waiting for their deaths, but suddenly, a familiar voice yelled out.
"Uzumaki Style: Way of Iai!" Naruto yelled, slicing through each of "them" faster then the eye could see.
The girls opened their eyes and came face to face with a smiling Naruto.
"Hey girls, glad I found you." Naruto said happily, only to find himself tackled to the ground by a happy Misuzu and Toshimi.
"Naruto, we knew you'd find us!" Toshimi said happily.
"We knew you wouldn't leave us!" Misuzu said with glee.
"Um, yeah. Thanks girls." Naruto said with a blush on his face at the feeling of their breasts on him. "Heh, as much as I like being in a position like this, I think we should get outta here, ya know."
The girls nodded and quickly got up. They all ran out of the library.
"Naruto, what do we do now?" Misuzu asked.
"First, we're gonna find the rest of our friends. Then, we need to find a safe place to hide from these things." Naruto answered as they continued running, with the girls nodding in agreement.
(With Takashi, Hisashi, and Rei)
They got to the roof, but what they see shocks them. The city is in chaos. Buildings are burning, "they" are killing people left and right, screaming fills the air.
"Holy shit, it's happening everywhere." Takashi stated in horror.
"But everything was normal. Everything was just fine a minute ago." Rei said before the wind suddenly blew hard, lifting up her skirt and showing her panties."
They looked up and saw helicopters pass over their heads.
"Blackhawk? American military?" Takashi questioned out loud.
"What are they doing here, there's no base around here. No, that's not it, that's the Self Defense Force." Hisashi said.
"Hey, over here!" Rei yelled, trying to get their attention.
"Don't bother." Hisashi said, getting Rei's attention. "I wouldn't even waste your strength. That's the Self Defense Force. They must have some special mission and I don't think they're here to help us us. They're not even doing anything about that." Hisashi said as he pointed to a girl being killed by some of "them". That's whats going on outside the school. Just imagine what's going inside. This is like a disease caused by "them".
"Them?" Takashi asked confused.
"The dead are attacking people left and right, but this isn't a movie or video game. Thats why it's "them", "they" bite people, and once you get bit, you become one of "them"." Hisashi answered.
They soon noticed that more of "them" had made it to the roof. They looked for a place to escape, until Hisashi found a high point on the roof.
"This way! We can hide up there and barricade the stairs, hurry!" Hisahi yelled.
They ran and attacked any of "them" that got too close. They started to make their way up the steps to their destination, until Rei stopped and stabbed a student that became one of "them" in the chest, making her breasts bounce.
"Are you nuts?!" Takashi yelled.
"Say what?" Rei questioned, until the dead student grabbed the broom handle and slammed Rei ageinest the wall.
She slid down the wall before looking up and seeing the dead student coming at her and closed her eyes.
"Get away!" Rei screamed in fear.
"Rei!" Hisashi yelled as he grabbed the bat from Takashi and smashed the dead students head.
"Hisashi." Rei said joyfully as he helped her up.
"Did you see that? We have to smash "their" heads in to kill "them"." Hisashi said before noticing another one of "them" coming, but kicked "it" down the steps.
"Rei, Hisashi, come on!" Takashi yelled.
They soon got back up the steps. Takashi let them pass first, then turned to see more and more of "them" everywhere. Where ever he he looked, he only saw "them" eating people. All of it was just too much for him to see and let his anger out.
"Damn it, what the fuck?" Takashi questioned before yelling. "WHAT THE FUCKS GOING ON?!" Takashi yelled at the top of his lungs.
A few hours later, Takashi and Rei were looking over the city while Hisashi sat on the rail. They barricaded the top of the stairs, so none of "them" could get through.
"W-Why? Why is this happening?" Rei questioned shakily.
"There has to be a reason. May if we figure it out what's causing it...we can stop it or at least...protect ourselves." Takashi said a little hopefully.
Hisashi suddenly started coughing. Rei ran over to him to see if he was fine, but he soon started coughing up blood, scaring Rei and Takashi.
"So it is just like the movies. Once your bitten, that's it." Takashi said worriedly.
"But nothing you see in movies is real. That can't happen." Rei said sadly.
"But it did happen." Takashi said sadly.
Hisashi coughed up more blood before turning to Takashi.
"Takashi, will...you help me?" Hisashi panted out.
"What is it?" Takashi asked.
"I need you...to do two things...for me. The first,...is that I want you...to tell Naruto...I'm sorry." Hisashi said, surprising Takashi and Rei.
"Sorry? Sorry for what?" Rei asked, not knowing what he meant.
"No time. Second, I want you...to help me over the rail. The fall to the ground...should be enough to crush my head." Hisashi said, shocking Rei.
"Hisashi, no! You can't die! You'll be-" Rei began, only to be stopped by Hisashi.
"I don't wanna be one of them!" Hisashi yelled before coughing up more blood.
"Hisashi! No, you can't die! You can't die!" Rei screamed as she held on to him.
Takashi could do nothing but just watch this with a blank expression.
Hisashi soon died with Rei crying on his lifeless chest.
"Get away from him Rei." Takashi said sadly.
"No! He's not gonna turn! He's not going to become one of them!" Rei pleaded, but then saw "Hisashi" get up. "Hisashi?"
"Hisashi" stood over her emotionlessly. Rei wanted to try and see if he was fine, but Takashi moved her to the side. Rei could do nothing but watch in complete sadness.
"Don't do it." Rei said quietly as Takashi prepared to kill Hisashi.
"I'm sorry Rei, but it has to be this way." Takashi said sadly.
Takashi then ran at the dead "Hisashi" and swung his bat at full force and smashed "Hisashi's" head.
(With Naruto, Misuzu, and Toshimi)
Naruto, Misuzu, and Toshimi are running through the halls, with the earlier cutting down any of "them" that come their way while the girls stuck close too him.
Suddenly, Naruto felt as if something had just stabbed him in the heart. As if he just lost a piece of his soul. He didn't know what it was, but he was sure he'd find out sooner or later. Right now though, he still had to find the rest of his friends.
And that's chapter 3. Let me hear what you think. Also, a message too those of you with best friends. Remember to always cherish them because you never know when you'll lose them. Especially during a zombie apocalypse.
Read and review, peace!
