Undead Office (On-Going)

Chapter 3: Contagion

THE AIR FILLED sadness with the surviving group. As they may have been able to clear the area, they witnessed another fallen comrade.

Leo is in the corner of the left section and was mourning for the death of his close friend. With no one leading them after the mission was accomplished, each had their own things to do.

Raj and Ahmed were Indian buddies at the company who have been like a buddy system ever since they worked at the company. Raj is a softer person compared to Ahmed but he's easily scared of horror.

As Raj was roaming around, who didn't know how to start any conversation, he then saw Ahmed on the right wing.

"I wonder what Ahmed is doing... the guys are feeling really down. I think we need to do something, or everyone's drowning in sadness." he said to himself as he walked towards the right wing.

From the door, he saw Ahmed along with Carlos, Zoe and Ava dragging the undead to a specific room. Zoe has been an obedient worker and always supports Ava as her best friend since they worked together. Ava is a close friend of Leo and is currently working with Carlos which explains their closeness together.

Ahmed saw him and said, "Oh, Raj! Come, come! We need to put these bodies somewhere or else we'll smell them after."

Raj was happy to oblige yet as he walked he noticed that the other 3 random co-workers before were separately put in place along with Ethan and the random woman.

"I don't know their names, but... I just felt like we should give them a separate place to lie down," Ava mentioned.

"I see..." Raj said with a sad tone.

The group continued dragging the bodies appropriately.

On the other side of the wind, Hannah was seen to be writing and talking to herself in a cubicle. Hannah has been a sweet and polite girl at their office, which everyone knows of. Yet, what lies in her true self is being selfish and a social climber. This explains her weakness during the apocalypse.

"I can't die, I shouldn't die... I'm still young... oh, God, please!" she keeps saying the same words repetitively like she's begging to be saved.

"You know... we're all scared. But we don't have other options except to become strong don't we?" Isaac said as he approached her and smiled as he tried to calm her down.

Isaac has been known as the good boy of the company. He's currently the youngest of them all and has been helping out others when in need. His family suffered poverty before which explains his determination at work. Yet, the apocalypse has changed the way things go now.

"Nobody deserves this, I know. Still, we must do our best to survive this altogether," he said.

Hannah went calm yet something inside her says the opposite thing.

"You're only saying that because people like you Isaac!"

"You act like a good boy but you're not strong!"

"I don't deserve this! You should all die for me! for me to escape this nightmare!" ---deep inside Hannah, spoke such dark secrets with her sweet personality.

While Leo is taking his time to feel despair, a sound of footsteps were nearing him.

"Leo, I understand that you need to grief but these people need some motivation, we all do. We need to make a plan to escape and live through this, otherwise their deaths don't mean anything," Sarah calmly explained to Leo.

Leo tried to man himself up and said, "You're right, we can't stay here much longer."

Leo kindly asked Isaac and Sarah to call the others in the meeting room. He suggested to have Zoe and Raj stay for a while at the Main Lobby entrance to check the barricades. He prepared a whiteboard and a marker for their brain storming.
