Dead Sea

Chapter 1: Ceramic Bastard

"Oi Leo, lend me a hand! the door is going bust open and the bloody thing is gonna enter the class! Hurry up and help me push this god damned door!". Eric shouted at the top of his voice to wake up a boy asleep on a table inside the class.

"Hmm... what's up Eric?" he yawned and stretched his arms and looked everywhere.

Tables and chairs were over turned, some on the ground, books was on the floor, even blood was splattered on the ground as well.

"What happened here dude? Why are you sweating and the whole class is in a mess? And why did no one bother to wake me up if they went for playing huh??" he looked upset and his eyes narrowed behind his glasses.

"QUIT TALKING AND HELP ME KEEP THIS DOOR IN PLACE OR THEY WILL COME IN!" Eric screamed at him.

"Ah! Right my bad!" Leo stood up and ran to the door and he started pushing as well.

"But who?" he looked at Eric as he adjusted to a comfortable position, but as soon as he did that.

"Oooh~ heavy, just who is behind this door man?" Leo got startled. Suddenly a loud inhuman shriek came out from behind the door.

"W-what the hell is behind this door huh Eric?!" he was sweating as he struggled to keep holding the door along with Eric.

"What is wrong with you? Were you asleep in the class as the whole school turned into a Zombieland? Haah??" Eric looked at him with a darkened expression, whilst struggling.

"Huh? What do you mean Zombieland?" Leo looked at Eric with his eyes wide.

"Ah you freaking dumbass, I mean everyone started eating each other!".

"Eating each other~?" Leo smirked with a cheeky grin on his face.

"Do you want to die?" Eric glared at him.

"I meant humans eating each other like in the movies you know, Zombies!" He continued.

Leo's eyes once more widened with disbelief.

"You mean we are playing Call of duty but zombie version and real life?!".

"I SWEAR to god you're testing my patience here peabrain!" Eric shouted at Leo as they both struggled to hold the door closed.

"Not my problem I was sleeping and was having a very nice dream with a girl you wouldn't understand!" Leo struck back, whilst gasping for a breath as his arms started to feel soggy and heavy.

At this moment, the activity outside the class became quiet and all silent, no one or a 'Zombie' was trying to barge in the class screaming like a donkey.

Eric remained vigilant as he rushed to the class's windows thinking why they didn't break the glass and come to eat them.

Well not Leo in the least, he was yawning once more.

"I guess the dude playing the zombie role got tired after-"

He didn't get to complete his sentence as a disfigured and bloodied student flew into the class through the windows with Eric side stepping to the right and falling onto the ground with a hard thud.

"ROAR!!" it roared whilst salivating and walking its way towards Eric slowly as if it was enjoying its little hunt.

"S-stay back STAY BACK!" Eric crawled backwards to make more distance from the thing or the zombie.

"Well...clearly its wearing the Direlts uniform of ours and seems to be a former 8th grader clearly." Leo walked behind it and held a plastic chair in his hand.

"L-Leo I don't think that will work man" Eric spoke as he stared at the zombie walking its way towards him and completely ignoring Leo as he was a meager lowlife.

"DIE YOU CERAMIC BASTARD!" Leo shouted as he jumped up and hit with all his strength on its head.

The Zombie staggered and fell onto the ground.

"Well it did work and I am, truly insulted by it as well." Leo walked towards Eric and pulled him up.

"Huh? When did you started minding insults?"

"After a dead man did it"

"Oh"

"Grrr" the 'almost' not so dead zombie started growling and started getting up.

The duo got a clear view of it, it was a boy with his neck bitten off with the blood still flowing out from its body and still trickling off him.

"Ughh he looks like he is peeing but its blood" Leo crinkled his nose and grimaced.

"You are by far the weirdest person I've ever met" Eric shook his head as he took a step backwards and looking for a proper object to kill it.

"Thank you."

"I didn't mean it as a compliment."

"...."

Leo and Eric made their way to the back of the class where another set of jalousie window was there.

"Okay so we are on the first floor and if we jump outside-" Eric looked outside.

"-There is grass." He finished.

"Okay so we break the glass but how, the zombie is walking slowly because there is no one in the vicinity to fight for it's prey you know."

Leo looked at it walking slowly towards them with an ever changing grin on its face with blood dripping off it.

"Alright, take that table and throw it at the window as hard as you can, and we make a run for it."

"You mean jump for it."

"Its just a phrase man."

"Okay so I take the table and I throw it and its going to run towards me and you're going to jump so I die?" Leo rehearsed and looked at Eric.

"Shut up pessimistic four eyes." Eric glared at him.

"We will jump together."

"Aight."

"On 3"

"2"

"1"

"Go!"
