I drag my feet to my rusty gray locker. Sadly, my locker was next to the boys Restroom so everyday I smell this putrid stench coming from the restroom . As I am grabbing my books in my locker and not trying to breathe through my nose, I feel a tap on my right shoulder. I turn around the all of the sudden I catch a right hook. My back slams into the locker and I slowly slide down too the floor. I hold the side of my face and look up. The culprit who just about knocked me out cold was Fredrick Redford, the high school bully. He is a red haired,6'4, 220 pound 15 year old that loves to pick on smaller kids like me. The thing is I'm only about 2 inches shorter than him. I could easily fight him but I don't want to get suspended because my dad would kill me. I sit there putting pressure on my gash across my cheek. He yells," Hey bitch! Get up! Before I make you retarded and crippled like your faggot little brother!" I clenched clinched my and mumbled," don't talk about my brother." He sarcastically replies," it's not my fault that your brother is retarded." The word retarded makes me go crazy. I find myself on top of this jerk violently punching him in his freckled face. His eyes are starting to swell up. I lift my right fist up in the air ready to strike him again.
I hear feet hitting the ground a people screaming. I look over my shoulder and people with bites in their necks and arm are crying, people with blood all over there faces. Towards the back of the terrified crowd, I see people that look a bit different. These people look like us but they have pale skin and black eyes. Some of them are missing limbs, some are eating some ones intestines, some are crawling on the ground. I quickly get up and start to run away from the crowd of madness. I glance back and see Fredrick laying on the ground about to get trampled by the screaming people. I hesitate and make myself stop and run back to the half conscious body of Fredrick. I pick him up and put his arm around my shoulder and run out of the school. My heart dropped because I remembered that my brother is in school also. I quickly drag Fredrick out side of the school. I throw down Fredrick and set him behind a bush beside the school parking lot. I command," stay here don't move."
Luckily that his school is only half a mile from my school. I sprinted down to his school. These things were everywhere on the road. I quickly dodged each ones death grip. Out of breath , I run into the school and into his class room. I look around I can't see him. All I see is a bunch of infected kids with blood covering them. I scream," NICK!". I hear a faint voice in the classroom closet . I push the infected kids down without getting torn apart. I open the closet and found my little brother and another student. They look terrified, covered in blood, and flinched when they saw me. I whispered,"hey nick its alright. I'll get you and your friend out of here but you have to do what I say okay?" they both look up and slowly nod and step out of the closet.
I run to the corner of the room dodging the infected and grabbing his wheel chair and running back to him. As I was putting nick in the chair, his classmate panics and runs towards the door. Half way to the door an infected grabs his arm and bites him. The kid holds his arm and starts to scream. I throw the infected off of his classmate and we run out of the school. I run through the parking lot and see a truck door open. I push nick and while his classmate follows next us, to the car and I find an infected eating a persons throat. I kick the walking corps off of his lifeless body. I hop in the car and look for the keys but they seem to be nowhere. I whisper to myself," damn." I hop out and look down and realize that the keys are in the lifeless body's hand.
I grab them and turn the old pick up truck on. I throw the kid an my brother in the back and drive back to my school. I pull up to the school and command," you guys stay in the truck I need to get a friend." My brother cries," don't leave me! I'm scared." I reply with confidence," it will be alright. I promise I will be back." He slowly nods. I hop out and run to the bush where I left him. As I expected, he was still out cold. I slump him against my shoulder and run him back to the old truck. I sit him next to my brother's classmate and we headed towards my house.
