Well to be honest stuff came up and I really didn't want to say I would be on hiatus because I've seen a lot of people do that and never come back … ever. And I didn't want to feel like I was letting you guys down. Also I was a bit lazy because I wanted time for myself. But fear not for I am going to give you the next chapter.

"Talking"

'Thinking'

'Zangetsu'

'Hollow'

"This way Saeko" Ichigo said while running dodging the undead that was to his left.

Saeko turns the corner and hits the zombie with her bokken.

Ichigo then grabbed Saeko's hand and they ran to a playground.

" heh.. I think we lost 'em" Ichigo said while panting. Saeko was squirming somewhat while hyperventilating.

Ichigo looks at Saeko and saw something was wrong. "Uh… Saeko? Are you ok?"

"Uh yeah Ichigo, I'm perfectly fine. Why do you ask" Saeko said while shaking.

"You sure because, your shaking and your… flushed!" Ichigo says while looking Saeko up and down.

"I just need to use the bathroom." "Well… Ah there's a bathroom over there".

"Orrrr I can use the bathroom right here and save us the time" Saeko said seductively.

Saeko got the reaction she was hoping for. Ichigo had a deep blush.

"Ichigo, I was joking or… were you hoping for that" Saeko said.

"Bite me Saeko" Ichigo said.

'Gladly' Saeko thought.

"You should use the bathroom over there." Ichigo said trying not to make eye contact.

"But what if something happens "Saeko said in an innocent voice. "What if I need a big strong man to protect me?"

"'Sigh' so you want me to go with you into the bathroom" Ichigo said in a defeated voice.

"Thank you Ichi-kun" Saeko said in a happy voice. Both Ichigo and Saeko walk towards the girl's bathroom.

Ichigo walks in and scopes out the bathroom. Saeko slightly shaking follows Ichigo in.

On the walls there was blood on the walls and the doors of the stalls.

Ichigo checks all stalls one by one. After finding that there were no undead inside any of the stalls they decide to take the stall closest to the door.

As Saeko goes into the stall Ichigo curses his luck and thinks of how he got into this situation.

He recalls how he got into this situation when he smells something salty. He starts sniffing then realizes what he smells almost immediately.

"Ichigo in all seriousness thanks for doing this."

"Well in this situation its necessary to do this" Ichigo said while putting his hands over his head he then closes his eyes because he doesn't feel like looking at the blood around him.

"I'm done" Saeko says signaling Ichigo to move from the stall.

As Saeko comes out of the stall Ichigo says "We should start leaving its starting to get dark."

The two start running to find a haven to stay for the night. They end up going to the outside of a bike shop.

"This is good we need to move quicker." "But, you know that motorcycles make noise right." Saeko deadpans

. "Well we should find supplies at least." Both Ichigo and Saeko both look for supplies and start looking at which is the best bike to use for transportation.

They both are still ready for anything to pop out at them. Saeko goes to back and turns on the lights.

"Hey, Ichigo what about this". Ichigo then walks in the direction in which his name was called.

He sees a type of buggy looking bike. "What about it?" "Are you really that dense?

We can use this buggy to find somewhere to stay for the night. It even says that it's aquatic." "So we can use this to go under water." Ichigo says with an indifferent look.

"What's wrong?" "Well… weren't you the one talking about the noise coming of these things?"

"Buggys don't make as much noise as motorcycles." "Well okay we should use this. By the way, what did you find?"

" I found tape, a book of matches and scissors , you?"

"Some water bottles, a duffel bag and an under shirt". "What are we gonna do with an undershirt".

"I dunno, keep it for safe keeping?" "Well let's get ready to go". Both Ichigo and Saeko packed up what they found in the bike store.

They open the garage, and it starts to alert the undead in the neighborhood.

Ichigo unsure of his driving skills speeds down a slope with a worried hoping that he won't smash into a car and kill himself with the shouting girl behind him telling him to slow down.

Ichigo going down the slope starts to slow down realizing he has to turn because it's a dead end.

"Finally. You were driving like a complete maniac. You hit at least 3 of them on your way down." While continuing to drive at a slower pace he yells back to her saying.

"It's not my fault that I don't drive Buggys every day of my life." "Well at least you're driving like a half sane person." Ichigo then growls at that comment.

10 Minutes later

"Why are we stopping?" "I kinda want to try to use some of the other functions".

"Ichigo your acting like a child." "What can't I be curious?" "There's a saying about a cat getting killed because of its curiosity".

"Saeko lower your voice". As he says this a few zombies start to crowd around the buggy.

"Look at what you did Ichigo" Saeko said in a somewhat irritated tone.

"Hey I wasn't the one creating a ruckus about me wanting to try the features of this buggy."

"I don't care what you do just drive". Ichigo that mashed his foot on the gas and drove off the riverside into the bank they stopped right in front of.

"Aw hell Saeko are you alr-ahh". The sight Ichigo said was burned in his memory for the rest of his life.

He witnessed Saeko's upper half drenched and made her school uniform see through. "Stop staring you perv" Saeko said while covering her upper body.

"Ah Ah… yeah". Ichigo drove the buggy to the middle of the bank.

He saw how the zombies fell down the incline of the riverside.

"Their recovery is flawless" Saeko says. A few minutes later the zombies start walking away. "Hey Saeko they're leaving!" "It's probably because they can't follow us through the water."

"That's good to hear! It would be very problematic if they could -" "Achoo." Ichigo then hands Saeko the black undershirt. "Oh what are we gonna do with an undershirt". Ichigo says while smirking. Saeko then starts to grunt.

"You can change on that little island." "Th-thanks" As Ichigo beaches the Buggy he turns around to look at the distance. He thinks back to when the others were saved by Takagi's mother.

'HOW THE HELL DOES THAT WORK?!" Ichigo thinks as he realizes that Takagi's mom comes after him and Saeko run through a horde of zombies.

His trademark scowl starts to show on his face after he comes to this realization.

'Man someone must hate me. First my friends all have things to do. Then this zombie outbreak has to start up. Then right after I have to leave with a bus load of pricks, then we have to fend off zombies on a bridge, then me and Saeko have to get separated from the group and on top of all of this I had to kill Keigo, Mizuiro, and Chizuru .

But… It wasn't all bad. I mean at least Tatsuki is safe, I met people who I can call good friends and at least my family is –'.

"Ichigo, I'm done". Ichigo then turns around and stares at the sight he sees forgetting about finishing his last thought.

"What, you see what you like?" Saeko says. "You're fake" Ichigo says under his breath looking at the ground.

"What would give you that idea" Saeko says in an innocent voice.

"Never mind" Ichigo said dropping the subject. "Whatever you say Ichigo" Saeko says while hanging her clothes on the top of the buggy.

'How does she call me a perv when I look at her when she's drenched but she throws herself at me when she has an undershirt on?" Ichigo thought while he deadpanned at Saeko while she was putting her clothes on the top of the buggy.

Well we should get going to find a place to camp out for the night.

"Kohta, I'm scared for Ichigo and Saeko". "Alice, you shouldn't be scared for Ichigo and Bushijima.

They both are strong enough to protect each other." "Are you sure Kohta?"

"I'm very sure Alice; Saeko is very safe since Ichigo is with her. But Saeko is also no slouch, she can protect herself if need be.

Alice go get cleaned up with Ms. Shizuka". "Ok, Kohta" Alice said with a more determined look on her face.

As Kohta watches Alice run off to Ms. Shizuka, he looks out the window toward the setting sun.

He then starts to think about their predicament. 'I sure hope I can put my money where my mouth is'.

Kohta starts to think about the time on the bridge. He remembers hearing a phone drop and then turns to Saeko and Ichigo. Saeko is getting pushed back somewhat while Ichigo is attacking like a tyrant. However he looked sad but acted crazy somewhat. He also looked off balanced fighting them. At this point Kohta was getting low on ammo.

Tatsuki would kick any of them that got to close but mostly stayed back to protect Takagi and Ms. Shizuka. A few minutes later Takashi and Rei come flying onto the bridge with a bike.

I get a pistol, Ichigo gets his shorter zangetsu and then uses it to do a move that seem to rain their blood. Then the group makes quick work of them. He can't believe what he saw Ichigo do.

Then when everyone relaxes Ichigo passes out. 'Saeko will be safe for sure'

"Man its dark, at least this thing has head lights… Saeko start packing the stuff in the duffel bag."

"Why?" "Just do it." "Whatever you say Shia laBeouf". "Who?!" "Just keep driving".

Ichigo drives until he reaches the middle of the park then stops as he sees both directions. "Damn it, both ways are crowded by them." Ichigo then abruptly starts driving and drives into the fountain.

" Hey, Ichigo what's wrong with" SPLASH. Saeko now drenched again shakes herself and says "Ugh.. Do you like making me wet."

Ichigo then outstretches his hand and ask Saeko for the tape. She hands it to him and he starts taping both the drive and the brake handles so it revs and creates noise.

"Nice right, It allows them to only hear the revving engine. "Well lets start clearing away for us" Saeko says as she jumps out the buggy with her bokken and strikes some of them that were making their way toward them.

Ichigo also jumps out with the duffel bag over his shoulder his sawed off shotgun held in his gakuran style vest jacket. While they both attack Saeko flashes back to when she was almost raped looking at the zombie children Ichigo realizes this and yells "MOVE" as he slashes the zombified children.

Both Saeko and Ichigo somehow get away from the park. They arrive at a staircase that leads to a temple. They run up the steps and when they get to the top they look around to make sure there were no undead on the top of the temple grounds.

When they go inside the temple Ichigo looks around and finds a candle and he lights it. He then takes out Saeko's clothes and hands them to her. "Here you go, I'll go behind there while you change."

2 minutes later

"I'm done" Saeko says with her bedroom voice. Ichigo waits a second then gets up and goes to her. Then he sits down and stairs at her for a few minutes.

~Awkward silence~

Ichigo gets up and looks around then he looks at the sheath at the back of the room. "This is a real katana Ichigo says before he turns to Saeko. "Hey Saeko, there's a real sword hear so you won't have to keep using your wooden one."

"Oh thanks" Saeko says in a distant voice. "Oh, yeah I also found a present for you". "What" Saeko said in a slightly surprised voice. Ichigo took out blood pads from behind his back.

"I think its that thin girls use to stop the bleeding down there." Saeko then starts laughing in a good natured way. Ichigo then gives her a genuine smile. Then the atmosphere gets tense.

"You can ask why I hesitated." Ichigo gets serious and says "For you to act like that something serious must have happened". "Well don't get it wrong Ichigo, it wasn't about the kids… when I was younger, I was almost raped.

I was coming from kendo practice where a man just grabbed me. I was scared at first but then I kept calm until the time was right, then I elbowed him. He then started grunting on the floor with pain.

I started to beat him with my bokken. At first it was self-defense but then I started to enjoy it. I left that man in a pool of his blood. When the police arrived, I told them what happened.

That night I got a ride home from the cops. When I saw those kids, it made me think back to that time. I'm not like you guys, I enjoyed hurting him." "But Saeko we are all like that now".

"Yeah... but I was like that before. I'm a monster." "Saeko don't call yourself that… I'm going to tell you a story that I was going to take to my grave.

Flashback

"Kaya are you alright? You don't look alright" Chizuru said in a worried voice as she got closer to "Kaya".

"CHIZURU GET AWAY FROM HER" Ichigo yelled. Chizuru then turned to look at Ichigo. "Ichigo what's wron- " that was the last words Chizuru said until she gave off a bone chilling shriek.

Keigo and Mizuiro tried to pull the zombie off from Chizuru's arm.

Ichigo slices the zombie's head off at the last second and then saves Chizuru.

Mizuiro ripped a piece of his shirt off and ties around Chizuru's arm.

Ichigo stands in front of the trio just to make sure none of them came around the corner. That was the biggest mistake he maid because when he turned around Chizuru was biting into Keigo's neck and had her hand over Mizuiro's face.

Mizuiro's had tears in his eyes and his last words were "Ichigo, kill us". Zangetsu had sliced through the three with just two swings. Ichigo's next impulse was to throw up on the ground.

My head then started throbbing

Flashback end

"Then I woke up in the office with you guys. So, Saeko you are not and will never be a monster okay. And even if everybody believes you are, I won't.

Then an awkward silence ensues and both Ichigo and Saeko go in for a kiss.

Saeko leads on the kiss and forces Ichigo to the ground. 30 seconds of nonstop kissing. Ichigo as unwilling he was, he has to put his foot down. "Saeko, we can't"

Ichigo says as he broke apart from the kiss. "Why not" she says in a disappointed voice. "It's because they will be attracted to the noise. It will also be problematic if you get… you know!"

"Well okay Ichigo can you at least hold me while we sleep? I don't want to be alone tonight"

"You know you will never be alone" Ichigo says as he blows out the candles and falls asleep with Saeko in his arms.

Well how was that for a long awaited chapter. Yeah Just to let you know that chapters will be longer than this
