School is what brings us together, right? I wish it was that way today. We were having a perfectly normal day when the princable said we were leaving early.

And here we are. I'm on the bus with my friend Erin, when we hear someone on the bus let put a ear piercing scream.

Something thumps against the bus, and me and Air see what did it. I let out a scream as bloody body hits our window, the person still moving. The bus suddenly flys forward, and more of those things hit the bus. Air starts hyperventilating and I, along with many more, let out a scream.

These things were people.

All of the sudden the bus is jerked to the side. My and Erin go flying out of our seat to the next one over. "WHAT THE HELL!" I hear the bus driver yell. More and more people hit the bus, blood oozing out of there mouths and bite marks that cover there body

Me and Air relies all to soon that these were zombies.

"AAAAAAAAAAA" every one yells as the bus is flipped over. A few kids hit there heads pretty hard and go limp. Kids are crying and hugging friends.

I can't see Erin, so I get up and look around. I see her laying on the floor crying.

I rush over to her and see her forehead bleeding. When I crouch next to she looks up at me. "We need to get under the seats on top so the zombies can't see or reach us." She says, her blond bangs dipped in her blood.

Some other people must of heard Air because soon everyone connchess in the back of the bus is using window to get to the top seats and get to where they connect to the wall of the bus so they don't fall.

Soon me and Air are using the iron bars as a make shift bead.

"You think will survive Zamila?" Air whispers. I nod my head, bearly hearing her. Because of the position were in our legs and arms arm using the bars for support, causing pain to flare through my arms from leaning on them

Air's head seems to have stopped bleeding, but I bet it still hurts.

Suddenly a loud crash echoes through the bus as the dead walk into the now broken door. There moans now loud, five zombies walk to the ones who were knocked out cold or ended up dead from the impact.

The horrid smell hits mine and the rest of ours noses as the things start to chow down on kindergarteners and other people on the other side of the broken bus.

Blood soon starts to seep through broken windows on the know floor of the bus and suddenly I have the urge to throw up. I try to hold in my lunch, but with about every other person up hear, my belly empties out.

The zombies don't even look to see what happen. They keep eating our schoolmates.

Erin looks at me wearing a worried expression. I shake my head and and try to not look at the disgusting sight bellow me.

The two kids in front of us so happen to be facing us, so we're not looking at there asses.

The one on the left has dirty blond hair and bright blue eyes. Brown stubble covers most of his chin.

The dude on the right had black hair and hazel eyes. He was cute for what I think.

They saw me looking at them and smiled. Well as much as people in a bus that there schoolmates were being eaten.

"Hi... I'm Emet." Says the guy with dirty blond hair, though he looks at Erin longer then me.

"I-I'm Jayson. What is y-yours?" The guy with black hair stutters.

Before Erin can say a word, I bring my hand over her mouth and nod my head down. She seems to get it and nods. You see, Erin is naturally loud so......

She looks down guiltily, knowing she almost blew our cover. Emet and Jayson seemed to get it to since they shut-up.

After a few minutes, hours? Who cares, the things left, leaving our friends and some family basically bones. But then I saw some bright read hair and remembered some thing.

My 16 year old sister was on the bus today.

I climbed down with everyone else, but as soon as we were down I ran to Isabella's body.

"NOOOO!! Please don't fucking leave me!! No!!!" I screamed as I reached her I dived down, landing next to her, a scooped her up into my arms.

"Please!! Come back!! You can't leave me! We promised each other! I don't care if you hate me even, just wake up!!" I yelled. She wouldn't leave me, would she?

I felt hand on my shoulder and someone crouch next to me. I looked up, tears streaming down my face, to see Air.

"S-she wouldn't l-leave me, would s-she?" I cried. "She didn't have a choice Ze." She whispered, a single tear rolling down her cheek.

And that's who the reality of it all hit me, and the tears streamed faster.

"I lost someone close to me to. It hurts, but after a wail, it just feels numb." Comes a voice behind me.

I turn around, laying Bella on the bus wall, and look at Jayson.

"She was my sister. She was 16. To young to die, and now she's dead to a creature me and Erin st-" I stop, a small smile spreading on my lips.

Erin, Jayson, and Emit look at me strangely.

" Erin, we study those things. We no more about them then they no about themselves." Realization over comes all other emotions on her face, and Jayson and Emit look shocked.

"Yeah, your right. We need to figure out what's happening, and we need to survive it and not die."
