It was just another average Monday morning in Saint Gateways college, everything was boring as always. The English professor was going on and on about some literature lesson on Shakespeare. Raven was sitting in the back of the class bored out of her mind just staring out the window to outside. As Raven is viewing the outside scenery she noticed a weird commotion happening on the campus field. It seems that a fight was going on and everyone was videoing. This has happened before so Raven ignored it and looked back to her teacher. Suddenly, a random student covered in blood enters the class hall and ignores the professors questions and attacks him. Blood from the professors body covers the whiteboard he was writing on moments ago. Raven soon realized that this wasn't a normal day and that wasn't a random person, it was a zombie. Everyone started screaming and running out of the classroom into the halls in a panic.
Raven makes a quick getaway to the janitors closet, planning on waiting out the chaos. As she is running she grabs a random student that had gotten pushed against the wall during the stampede and pull them into the janitors closet with her. She quickly locks themselves inside, now the panic is over, and she can breathe a little easy, right? Raven and her new companion sit in silence as you listen to the chaos happening outside of the janitors closet. She begin to notice that the screams and hysteria are dying down. What once was chaos seems to be getting quiet.
Suddenly, they start to hear banging and scratching on the janitors closet door. She remains silent, as her new companion is doing the same. The banging on the door eventually stops and the chaos outside has settled completely. Now it's pure silence, except for her and her companion's soft breathing.
1 hour has passed and Raven decides to make her escape. Raven stands up and whisper to her companion, saying she's going to go investigate the situation outside. He nods and she slowly crack open the door. She peers into the hallway of the school, and it seems... clear? There's no signs of zombies. It seems safe. What should she do now?
After checking the hallway for zombies and deeming it safe, she closes the door and turn on the light which allows them to see all the supplies in the janitors closet. There are a variety of tools they could use as a weapon, such as mops, brooms, and even an axe. Raven find herself staring at the axe, contemplating if she should use it or not. Raven grabs the straps of her book bag and cuts the straps off, tying them together and cutting holes in the straps for the axe handle to sit in. She wraps the makeshift sword harness around her shoulder and back, then places the axe in the harness on her back.
"Hey can I use your belt?" Raven asks. She grabs the attention of her companion who is sitting on the floor of the janitors closet, looking at her.
"Yeah? Why?" "he asks. She tell him that she's going to use his belt so that she could make a knife holster. He looks a little hesitant, but decides to go along with her plan. He removes his belt and gives it to her.
"Here," he says. "Will you need anything else too?"
"Can you grab two pairs of scissors out of my bag please." Raven smiles softly down at him. He picks up her book bag and digs around in it. He eventually grabs two scissors and hands them to her.
"Here," he says. "Is this enough?" He smiles and looks at her. "Should be, thanks..." Raven says.
She take the two scissors and break each of them in half, making two small sharp knives. She secures them in the makeshift knife holster strapped to her thigh, and they feel comfy. She turns to her companion who is watching her and smiling.
"No problem," he says.
Raven opens a tool box that was on one of the shelves and finds a hammer. "hear something you can use to defend yourself, there should be other stuff around here too." Raven says, handing him the hammer. The guy thanks her for the hammer. She look around the janitor's closet and realizes there are all kinds of tools and supplies in there. She notices that she could probably make more weapons for defense and possibly even try to break out of there. Raven look over to the guy who is eagerly awaiting her decision.
"What should we do next?" He asks.
