I.N.S.A.T.I.A.B.L.E
Daisy:
I sat on the bus with my legs curled up close to my chest, my chin resting on my knee's as I tried not to stare out the bus window.
Last time I did I saw a teenage girl being ripped apart.
I closed my eyes and I internally shuddered.
Everyone was already fast asleep.
My long black hair was almost like a curtain around my small frame. It reached to my feet, so it was quite a long curtain, in some ways.
I would need to start putting it in pigtails more often if I don't want to trip on it as much.
Cathy was in the front of the bus driving, so it was only me and her awake.
Looking to the side, I found Laricia taking up a whole bus seat. She was stretched out, and had her face buried in her crossed arms.
Her dark red hair splayed all across her face and back.
Looking towards another person, I found Shao leaning against the window, lightly breathing with her mouth agape and her hands folded in her lap.
She had merely passed out 5 minutes after we got away from those things.
The flickering street light's lit up her face, and cast shadows on her side.
Katherine sat next to Shao. Her dark hair slightly in her pale face, and her mouth closed (unlike others)
she had her legs splayed out in front of her in what looked like an uncomfortable manner.
Looking to Wade, he had his arms crossed over his chest, and his head dipped forward. Along with his legs splayed out in front of him.
Phil slept quietly in back with his back against the window, and one foot on the bus seat, whilst the other dangled off of it.
Shadow was resting his arm on the window, which also supported his head.
The street lamps lighting up his slightly disheveled snow white hair and pale skin.
There was slight red tinge in the snow white locks of hair, which obviously came from those things whilst he smashed them.
Alice had her arms wrapped around herself and her knee's drawn up to her chest. Her pretty blonde pigtails were messed up, but were also a sign of how hard she fought.
Her bottom lip was slightly stuck out in slumber, and her eyes fluttered under her lids every now and again.
Jackson was like Wade. Arms crossed and head dipped forward.
Karine leaned against the window with her eyes closed, her legs curled in and her hands folded in her lap.
And Alex had his arms behind his head, his left leg propped up on the railing of his seat, and his right leg crossed under his left. (he had been sitting alone, much like Laricia and some of the others.)
I felt myself shaking, wrapping my arms around myself I shuddered.
It was cold tonight, and some of the windows were open, because someone just hadto pick the bus with broken windows!
Closing my eyes and rubbing my arms, trying to hold back my chill, I heard a seat squeak slightly.
Merely thinking it was someone shifting in slumber, I leaned against the window, shuddering.
How the others weren't freezing was beyond me.
I felt warm fabric drape over me, and quickly looked up to see Alex had taken off his blazer and placed it around my arms. His normally defiant and calm eyes were now tired and warn out.
I didn't blame him.
"here, your shaking the bus with your shuddering." he murmured, a soft smirk on his face, indicating he was joking.
I blinked a couple of times, before slowly nodding, a slight blush on my face.
He was kinda cute when he was tired.
But sadly, I think he only see's me as an otaku, and unknown to him, I kinda like him. But I would never admit that.
Anyway, back to reality.
I smiled and quietly thanked him.
He gave me a small smile, which didn't reach his eyes, and walked back to his seat, before plopping down and falling back asleep.
It was a small gesture, but it was sweet none the less.
I curled up with his blazer around my shoulders, and was instantly met with the scent of rain and woods, along with another scent? Whatever it was, it smelt good.
I finally fell asleep.

Cathy:
after three hours of driving, I started to get tired, when Phil got up and offered to drive, which I quickly accepted, being very, very warn out. Thank the heavens for Phil! he had shown up on time.
Hehe.
I looked around for a spare seat, and decided to go to Alex.
Picking up his legs and throwing them off the seat, he woke up with a start, and blinked rapidly, before turning to glare at me with tired eyes.
"you couldn't have used any other seat." he grumbled/growled.
I smirked evilly.
"afraid not meh dear, you see you were the perfect target for my torment."
he tilted his head, possibly wondering what I meant.
I rolled my eyes and leaned on him, wrapping my arms around his waist.
"i just realized how fucking cold it is, and your very warm." I grumbled as I laid my head on his chest.
He glared down at me.
"go cuddle with someone else, i'm not a stuffed animal." he said, exhaustion evident in his voice.
I rolled my eyes.
"well Phil is driving, Shadow gets embarrassed easily around girls, Wade isn't exactly the kindest person, Jackson would probably be a good choice, but Alice had been giving him the fuck me eyes-"
"what?" Alex whispered loudly, looking at me, almost annoyed.
I grinned.
"alright, she's been giving him the lovey dovey eyes, so I don't want to get in between her and a blade, and girls don't exactly have as much body heat as guys, in my opinion. So there's only yoooouuuuu left." I muttered before laying my head down again.
I heard Alex grumble, before sighing and giving up.
"your evil." he growled.
I smirked.
"nope, I just know how to get what I want." and with that, we both fell asleep. Or at least that's what I would have liked, but we heard Phil yell.
"it's them!"
we all shot up, and Alex stood.
"can we plow through them?" he asked.
Phil shook his head.
"to many." he said as he kept driving. We couldn't just stop? But we couldn't plow through them!
Everyone was awake by now, and asking questions.
I bit my lip.
"do you think we'd be able to take them out? You know, at least enough so we can drive through them?"
I asked.
Phil thought a bit.
"probably, but there's to much, and the possibility of getting cornered is higher."
I smirked.
"i'm willing to take that risk." I said calmly.
Laricia chuckled.
"me to."
Katherine nodded, and as did everyone else.
Phil smirked.
"can never get a break, can we?"
Alex chuckled.
As Phil hit the breaks, we swerved and our bus came to a halt.
All of those things looked up and began to make there way to the bus.
Everyone grabbed there weapons.
"don't take any chances, and don't get cocky, it could end you." Phil said as he held his sabers in both hands. We opened the door.
Time to cut some bitches.

Katherine:
"Some of us should stay on the bus, we need to make sure our source of transportation and shelter isn't taken over." Alex said as he twirled his metal chair leg in his hand.
"Should stay here you haven't had enough sleep and I'm about ready to kill everyone on this bus….." I said. he was about to protest, but I flipped my javelin a few times before running past everyone else.
I was the first to run out of the bus doors as they opened slamming my javelin through three of their heads before kicking them off. I was beyond pissed, no one, NO ONE not even fucking zombie shits are going to ruin my sleep!
"Die, die die die die die die die die die die die die!" I yelled over and over again as I decapitated some and speared others, not letting them get near me. I was a cold blooded killer when I was tired and pissed.
I heard the sounds of battle behind me feeling blood splatter on my back as I turned to see Laricia had stabbed one that was about to get me, smirking before jumping off. Oh it was on.
I was now determined to out kill Laricia even though I knew it was probably impossible. There were many small battles as we kept jumping in saving each other in several close calls, it was hard to keep track of everyone because of the massive hoard of zombies… but we managed. Taking out at least ¼ of the zombies as we fought for our lives, at one point Shadow and I were back to back fighting, a ring of zombies around us.
"Keeping them back won't be enough…" He says, winded obviously as they just kept coming, we were making good progress but it was slowly diminishing as more from other areas came to the commotion.
"We need a plan, we can't hold them off forever!" Wade yelled over the sea of groans and blood splattering everywhere.
"Take out as many as possible!" Alex got to the center of our group as we all stood together before Laricia, Alice and I ran off before he could get another word out. I got knocked down from behind my javelin thrown across the floor several feet away. Looking behind one of those things had grabbed onto my leg about to bite me. I tried kicking it off, but it wouldn't detach itself.
"Need some help?" The zombies head was smashed to pieces a hand outstretched to me. Taking it he helped me up.
"Thanks Jackson." I said as I ran off grabbing my javelin off the ground.
"Oi everyone back to the bus, we killed enough of them to get through!" Cathy yelled from the bus door as we all ran back. Looking across the large crowd of zombies I saw a plume of white hair being delayed.
"Hold the bus I'm going to go help him!" Back hand springing over several abominations called zombies, kicking the one behind shadow in the head before he was bitten. Grabbing his arm and pulling him back to the bus running in just as the door closed and we drove off.
"I would have gone out there, you shouldn't have risked it." Alex said rather coldly as he went probably to go sleep next to Cathy as Phil drove.
"I know a place we can hide. I'll take the wheel." Patting Phil on the back as we switch places. Going to the one place I had a feeling was safe.
I.N.S.A.T.I.A.B.L.E
Alex :
I went back to my seat plunking down again resting as Cathy walks back over moving my legs again and sitting down. I didn't care anymore, so I just ended up falling asleep again.
We got at least a couple hours of sleep before I felt the bus stop and the engine turn off. Getting up I thought something happened but nothing did, instead we were at an old building in a high up mountain. The rocky road, im not even sure how the bus got up but it would be hard for those things to get here. Kat got up from the driver's seat and opened the door walking off with her javelin before closing them from the outside…? She wasn't going out ALONE was she?
"Hey where are we? And where is she going?" Alice asked looking as Kat disappeared near the woods.
"I think we are in a safe zone at least for now, as for her I don't know but I don't think we should let her wander around alone."i said, getting up and going to the door just as she walked back onto the bus, stoic as usual. No one could ever tell what she was thinking. Shao walked up to her and they started talking in hushed tones before she turned to the rest of us.
"We're in the mountains in a secret sort of valley, its not sound proof so we can't be too loud or those things will find us. They can't get up here very well so we should be safe for a while. Its my grandmothers old place, she was a weapon fanatic so she's got loads of guns, bow and arrows, name it she'll probably have it in here." She knew about this and didn't say anything sooner?!
"But the house doesn't have insulation so it'll be really cold considering its winter and we all might die of hypothermia, it has hot and running water, and a working stove. So ya know take it or leave it right?" –She shrugged and turned back towards the bus door opening it.
"Where is your grandmother?" Daisy asked looking around probably creeped out, the place looked ancient and like one of those houses from a horror movie, Cathy was creeped out a bit as well as Shao. Or they looked it at least.
"She's dead." With that we all walked off in silence, and how cold Kat was, Cathy looked about ready to pass out from Kat's tone. She had gotten on Kat's bad side once before and she didn't want to get on it again especially when she didn't have any sleep, honestly this was idiotic, but whatever we could use to survive.
