the epidemic

I am Souta an ordinary senior high you can see everywhere, I live at a small town.

I look at the TV while preparing go to school.

[reporting there is a virus rapidly spreading around the world, some people saying that this will be the start of the apocalypse where zombies are made]

hmm zombies huh? well if there is any I know what will I do

I am someone who always overthink something so if the apocalypse really broke out I'm already prepared

he giggles and said

"like it will happend thou"

someone came in Kelly's house

"what are you laughing at? it's creepy you know, hurry up we will be late at school!"

the other girl giggled

this two are my childhood friend

the one who talk to me was Amelia I call her Amy ,

on other hand the one who giggled was Steffanie I call her Steff.

our parents always aren't home and they always let us play together that's why we become so close to each other.

at school

lunch break

Kelly was sitting on his chair and over thinking things again

"we were already senior high and it's just a month's were about to go to college"

he sighed

"and the path that were taking are different, are we going to separate soon?"

Amy called me "oiiii Souta let's have lunch together"

Souta replied "ok"

he stand up on his chair and walk towards Amy and steff

"hurry up" Amy said with a tone of being annoyed

"ok ok chill" souta replied

while walking through the hallway towards the cafeteria

a loud scream was heard

[every one, there is an emergency an unknown virus rapidly spreading and they let people bite other people to spread it. please evacuate to the evacuation center]

the students ran as fast as they can towards the evacuation center

while we stun and don't know what to do and confused what's going on look at the window.

students bite each other some scream in pain some fight them by pushing them.

"what's going on!?" Amy said with a scared tone

"I don't know" Souta replied

Souta remember the meme that they posting on the internet,

that the virus was the start of the apocalypse.

he then hold both of the hands of steff and Amy

they both look confused

"can you trust me?" Souta ask

they was really confused what's going on and said "yes?" with a question

While holding their hand he ran towards the stairs to go down

other students also run there so it was full of people so they have hard time going down

after the struggle Souta didn't run towards the evacuation center

he ran opposite the evacuation center

"what are you doing Souta?! The evacuation center was in the other direction!" Amy shouted

"don't worry Amy it's Souta were talking about, I know he knows what's his doing" steff said with a calmed tone to Amy

Souta ran towards where the emergency axe was he broke the seal and steal the axe

"ok, now we're ready! let's get out here"

the two didn't say anything they just follow Souta

Souta run towards the lock gate

after arriving he used the axe to break the padlock

and quickly open the gate and run towards the exits

there was no students there so it's was pretty much silent

"oh!" Souta stopped

"?"

"wait for me here, I'll be quick" Souta said

"ok" Amy and steff replied

they were already exhausted because of running around too much so it's actually helping them up to cath their breath

Souta in the other hand was not exhausted thanks to him always jogging in the morning

he run as fast as he can towards the guards room

the guards room was close to the gate so he arrived there fast

the guards room was empty probably because they already go to the evacuation center

Souta look everywhere he open The small cabinet in the corner there was a gun

Souta was thrilled "exactly what I'm looking for"

he again look for something useful and found a baseball bat

"why would a baseball bat here?"

he didn't think too much from it because he was in hurry

after picking up the gun and baseball bat he ran towards the girls

the girls was there waiting for him

"what's that?" Amy ask

"I found a baseball bat in the guards room" Souta replied

"ah it's probably own by the student who forgot that he have it in the bag" Steff said

"welp it's good for us whatever reason it is, here take this" he let Steff have it

"Amy can't hit people and don't be too naive ok? if the people who if infected tried to bite you hit it on the face ok?"

"ehhh why?" Amy ask

"I believe that they are not human anymore" Souta replied

"anyways let's go" Souta said

"to where?" Amy ask

"to the mountain"

they steal a bike that was parking in the parking lot

the 3 of them ride the bike and go towards the mountains

while in the bike they saw a lot of people who was bitten

they saw the people screaming, pain and desperate people trying to survive.

as they continue to bike they get out the small town,

they continue to bike towards the mountains.

they saw lots of cars run past them going towards the town.

As they continue to bike there was no cars anymore and also people

they sight a gas station

"we'll stop at the gas station" Souta said

they both nod their heads

they arrived at the gas station

the employees there already run the shop that was in the Gas Station was robbed

the door was already broken

they stopped and go towards the shop

"they even robbed The store" Amy said with a pity tone

"if the world was ending are you not gonna robbed something?" Souta said

"the world is ending? but that was only a virus!" Amy said

"get some drinks, canned food, also chocolate because that will energized our body" Souta said

"hey!" Amy shouted

"Answer me why do you said that the world is ending?" Amy asked

"you too sad it right? people eating other people and the people that been bitten become one of them as they multiple humanity won't last forever"

Amy was stun her hope shattered she just think that it was only a pandemic that if some time it will be cured

"don't worry too much Amy, Souta was still with us and I believe he will protect us no matter what" steff said

Amy just nod and also start taking food

"oi Souta there was a backpack here!" steff shouted

"oooo, this will be supper useful to us" Souta said

after taking all thinks that they can take they again start biking towards the mountain

"by the way Souta why do we need to go towards the mountains?" Amy asked

"there wasn't any much people around the mountains so it's probably safe there" Souta replied

as they bike towards the mountains they already arrived there

since its mountains it will become harder to bike there

"thank God where already here" Amy said

"well take a break, and hide the bikes it may be useful to use in the future also biking in the mountains is hard so walking Is an option"

"is that so?" amy said

"where really lucky to have Souta with us" steff said

"you sure start treating me nice" Souta said

"the world is about to collapse, why try to hide my kindness to you anymore?" steff replied

Souta just laugh

after the break they hide the bikes and start walking towards the mountains

it's already night when they finished their break

"well continue walking for 2 hours and then we'll camp" Souta said

the 2 just nod

after walking for an 2 hours it's already night luckily they have their phones for flashlight

"follow me" Souta said

he walk towards the left direction after walking for about 15 minutes they arrived

"well be staying here for the night" Souta said

it was a waiting shed

the two was confused

"emm Souta why is there a waiting shed here?" Amy asked

Souta laugh "it's because of the people around here it's was their project, I think"

"then how do you know that there was a waiting shed here?" steff asked

"I'll always go jogging in the morning right? I'll always go around here and also tomorrow I'll give you a bigger surprise" Souta replied

"you two was already exhausted so you sleep first, I'll stay in the night to guard"

the two look each others

"no well be splitting the night guard!" Amy said

"Amy was right Souta, you were probably exhausted too" steff said

Souta smiled "ok, I'll wake you up if it's your turn"
