As David, Etheine, and I headed down, avoiding the now massive crowd of zombies, still trying vainly to break the barricades, which luckily held, we descended down to the second floor, now smelling heavily of vinegar even from this distance, went down the ground floor.

The last time I saw the grounds was when I watched an entire batch get wiped out. I dont know how we will get out of here alive.

But this time, luck was with us, the zombies were all in the quadrangle, deserting the roofed area. They must have sounded the thing in the quadrangle aswell I thought to myself. We easily went through the area. We stopped at the general store, were we grabbed supplies, like Mighty Bond (you never know), Scissors for throwing, A Philippine map for direction, and some candy.

We saw the canteen locked and filled with dead. It looks like it was a refuge area, but a bit person got in.The dead indside did not notice our precence, so we headed to the gate.

The gate was locked shut with a thick chain and lock. We hacked through the chain with an hatchet we stole, and after breaking it, the weapon was dulled, so we threw it away.

As we opened the gates, we encountered a problem.

The street was dotted with multiple groups of the dead. Each group was about 10 strong and looks like it can tear metal with ease.

We didnt have much of a choice but to strike.

David swung his bat on the head of the dead and it flew away, I was stabbing and slashing quickly with my raipier, beheading them with ease, and Etheine throwing and slashing with his knives, killing more dead than us.

After what it seemed like hours, we managed to clear a way for us to head to the gate were the buses were parked.

"Nothing like a bloodbath in the morning" Etheine said, wiping blood of his knives.

The gate wasnt locked, so we swung it open and entered. The area was dotted with enough buses to ride an entire batch. But we went to the biggest bus we could find, with Davids help.

At the end of the area, we saw a bus big  enough to fit us with ease and still have sleeping space.

I told David and Etheine to close and lock the gates so we wont be disturbed.

I checked the door, it was locked, so I had to break the window, injuring my arm in the process.

"Crap" I said. My arm was filled with glass shards. But the wounds werent endangering, so I removed them, grabbed a strip of cloth, and wrapped my arm. I gotta stop by the clinic on the way back, this could get infected. I thought to myself, as I was opening the door.

I examined the indside. I immiedietly found a key in the ignition, as if someone was escaping, forgot something and went to get it but never came back.

On the dashboard, there was a note, probably fromt the driver, saying:

          Whoever reads this:

1) Keep my girl safe, she does not deserve a fate like this hell right now.

2) Her name is the Yellow Devil. She can drive fast, hence her name.

3) When I move on to the afterlife, whoever reads this can have it, I have a store of gas under it and it still has gas in it, last I checked.

4) Finally, please be careful, she can withstand alot of frontal damage, I can tell you that, but be careful behind. She gets a little sensitive there and turns off sometimes.

After reading, the note, I thought The Yellow Devil, clever name.

As David and Etheine finished securing the gates, I told them the things I saw and told them about the mysterious note.

"The Yellow Devil, I like that name" David said.

Etheine examined the entire vehicle, after, he said "David, can you drive stick?" "Yeah I can" David said,

"Good. I also examined the bus. It has enough fuel for Baguio and back. But we are going to use the plane, right?" "Yeah" I said "We have to leave the bus"

Before leaving, Etheine told for us to wait. He returned with a spray paint. He started spraying the sides of the bus with the word "The Yellow Devil"

"Looks awesome" I said.

We headed down the gate, unlocked it, and found the streets filled with the dead again.

"Here we go again" David said, readying his bat.

After clearing the street, we continued down to the way we came from, only to stop in the clinic, grabbed medical supplies, treated my wounds and refreshed my bandages,

When we entered the classroom, we found Vermont sleeping on the corner, and Jerome and Mykel working on the plows.

"Thank god youre here, Mykel was boring me with nonsense" Jerome said, lifting his googles.

"That wasnt boring, that was the complete history of Kingdom Hearts, whats boring with that?" Mykel said, turning off the torch.

"Guys, prepare your stuff, go wake Vermont up, were leaving. We found ourselves a ride." I said told them our adventure as Vermont was waking up.

"Nothing much happened here, just us welding the metal together" Jerome said, pointing at the crude plow with metal spikes sticking out. "We also make spikes for the wheel, but we have to weld it there" Mykel said, pointing at the wicked looking points resting on the locker.

"Let me guess, Jerome made the plow, and Mykel, the spikes" David said.

"How did-" Jerome said, but he stopped when a roar sounded all over the floor.

"Are we going to die yet?" Vermont asked sleepily.
