AU - The zombie apocalypse has started.

Kaede's POV

No.. this can't be happening. I promised that we would get out of this together, but no. I saw as Shuichi smiled at me with tear ridden eyes, the zombie biting down on his leg. The green from the bite spread, and before I knew it he had passed out, his once pale skin now swampy green.

I knew I had just lost someone, and if I stopped to help them I would be a zombie too, but I promised. And if I promise, I will die to keep that promise. "H-Hey Shu, don't let the bite get to you.." I reach to tap him on his shoulder, but he jolts back up instantly, his eyes now a greyish colour and his mouth leaking pink blood.

"Please Shuichi, this isn't the real you.." He couldn't hear me, only look at he with confusion and the hunger. He started moving towards me, in need of food I'm guessing.

I had to run. "I'm sorry Shuichi, I have to go." I look at him one last time and flee. Little do I know that he is tracking my every step, every turn I take and each time I stop to rest. I had stumbled into an old warehouse, that with a few wooden planks had been "zombieproofed".

I go to the corner where there is a few thin sheets of cardboard, and a few bits of insulator wool. I must have been really tired, so I crawled into the small space, covered myself with what I could find and passed out, crying.

I wake up, the cold in the air and the smoke in my lungs. I yawn, and stretch my arms and then rub my eyes. "Another day, another time where I could die." I stood up slowly using the walls around me for guidance, then walk around and stretch. I rummage in my backpack and find some food, that I eat for breakfast.

Thunk

What was that? I check if anything had fallen down, but nothing had. It was just the same old rubble that I had laid to rest on. But there it was again. I decide to check the entrance and exit, the first one, clear. Second one, clear. I check the last one, with a slab of wood in one hand.

It was Shuichi. A zombie, still. I take a few steps back as he slowly walks towards me, giving me time to think. I miss him. I miss him so much. But now his clothes are ripped and burnt, there are scars on every inch of his body. Bleeding. I could feel tears forming in my eyes.

I don't know what came over me, but I suddenly dropped to my knees and started crying. "Why him.. why." Shuichi was walking towards me even more, with his arms outstretched and muttering underneath his breath. Soon his hands touched my shoulders. I think it was muscle memory, but I instinctively hugged the zombie.

He paused all of a dudden, and to my surprise he returned the hug very slowly. I could feel his hands around me, and although he was technically dead, I found it comforting. I broke away, as he had somewhat of a smile on his scarred face. I rested my hand at the bottom of his face, curious to know what his reaction was.

"K- aede." I gasped. He had said my name! He remembers me? I nod, as a smile creeps across my face. "Yes, it's me!" He had a confused but happy look pained on his greenish coloured skin. He was mumbling some stuff under his breath, but he still was looking at me. He remembers me!

"Don't worry Shuichi, when this is all over, we can get you all fixed up. I will have to teach you some stuff again, but that's is no big deal."
