Survive! Apocalypse 101

Chapter 7- Infiltration (Part 3- The Raid)

We quietly headed down the stairs,

Etheine readied his knives in case anyone tried to sneak up on us. As we went down, Jerome and I talked.

"Got those bottles ready?" Jerome asked. I showed him a bottle. There was a rag sticking out of it. We plan to light the rag up, and chuck it. The gas buildup should be enough to release a very nasty smell.

"You sure about this? What if we screw up? We could be in for big trouble." I said.

"Chill dude, its going to go out on fine."

We sneakily headed down to the second floor. The cold atmosphere and the faint smell of decaying flesh lingered. We finally decided to enter via the Principals office. The office, luckily, was not sealed, a flaw in their plan. We entered the office without any problem. The problem came with the glass door.

The glass was boarded up. We had no way to enter in. The windows, we just noticed, Were sealed with some kind of glue. We had to go in somehow. We were running out of options.

"Over there" Jerome whispered, pointing to the hammer left of the floor. "Ply the wood out, we dont have much of a choice"

I grabbed the hammer on the floor, and started to ply out the boards. If you want to know how it feels to yank boards off a glass windown being held down my abnormal amouts of Mighty Bond. It feels like trying to remove a pen melted in metal and breaking it in the process. The hammer broke after removing the first board.

"Damnit!' I said as the pieces flew out. "I guess we go in the hard way" Jerome said.

We sneakily went to the barricade they made and hid under it. I took a peek and found 4 guards, half of them asleep.

"Knock out the guards, and sneak in" I whispered to Jerome.

Quietly, Jerome went over the barricade, used the blunt end of this blade and knocked out both the guards. He signaled us to hide the bodies.

Once it is secure in a abandoned room, we tried to open the doors, but it was shut.

"Come on!" Etheine said, shaking the doorknob.

"Look!, in the cabinet, there is a hole indside!" I said. Nobody would have noticed that in the first place but I had my eye on hidden entrances. One by one, we creeped in the cabinet, barely enough for us to fit in; and went indside.

The place, in our current situation, was loaded.

Food, weapons, toiletries, clothing, everything was stacked in a neat pile in every area. This could feed an entire batch for months and still not go hungry,

"Etheine, grab food. Jerome, get those weapons, I will grab those clothes" I ordered.

We quickly grabbed as much stuff as we can, Etheine shoving canned food down his stroller bags, Jerome stashing weapons in his padded bag, and I throwing in clothes that fit us,

After, Etheine's two bags were filled with food, Jerome has enough guns and blades to supply an army, and I have enough clothing to last us without cleaning it.

We suddenly heard the shouts outside. "Did you even knock them out?" I yelled at Jerome "I poked them! They dropped dead!"  Jerome said.

"Nevermind, hand me the lighter."

What we did was pretty stupid.

We lit the wet rag and it instantly caught on fire, broke the door windows, and chucked it out. The glass broke and the fire and smelly gas spread quickly. We covered our faces with our clothes so we wont hurl.

"Lets get outta here!" I said in a muffled voice.

We headed out from the secret entrance. The area was coverhttp://www.wattpad.com/mystories?compose=true&id=11637824ed with white mist, which is probably vinegar. The smell was so strong, I gagged in my mask.

The guards werent doing too good. They got knocked out on the spot. The people who were sleeping are starting to wake up from the stench.

Without anyone noticing, we slipped out behind the barricades. The entire floor was covered with the mysterious mist. I had doubts if we could come back here without getting sick.

We quickly went up to our holdout, were David and Mykel were waiting.

"That took a while, and whats that smell!?" Mykel said, covering his mouth.

"We threw some molotovs, big deal" Jerome said, dropping his heavy bag. "We gotta get out of here. They probably regained consciousness and preparing to strike at us."

So we rearranged our items, packed, and carried the bags, each of us holding a wepon of choice.

Just as we were leaving, we heard a loud, ear-piercing screech in the distance. We had to cover our ears from becoming deaf.

"That probably just alerted all of the dead to come and eat us" David said enthusiastically.

"Well, we gotta take the other way" I said, pointing to the mirror.

"If you dont want your face ripped off alive, lets get moving!" Mykel said as we heard shuffling noises coming in.
