It's 2039 and the basement to the highschool has been caged off. When asked, the principal and teachers reply, "Student safety." Sam and Ellie are curious and decide to sneak down there after hours. They try to find their friend Dave, but he's absent again. "He's been gone for three days sam, do you think he's ok?" Ellie asks, "I'm sure he's just got a bug. We'll go by his house tomorrow if he doesn't show again." Sam replies. Ellie nods in agreement.
Later, armed with flashlights, lockpicks and some snacks, they manage to get passed the bars and are going down the stairs when they hear voices. They duck into a shadowy alcove and they see two teachers going up the stairs. "We can't hide them forever George, eventually the parents are going to get suspicious of the sudden 'field trip'." Mrs. White, our Biology teacher, says to Mr. Jenkins, our Algebra teacher. Ellie and Sam look at each other and back to see Mr. Jenkins looking around in confusion. They hold their breath and stand as still as statues as fear of being caught permeates them. He narrows his eyes but keeps going when Mrs. White calls out to him. The teenagers release their breath and stay in place to make sure the teachers are gone.
They move on after a few minutes and come to another door. It's unlocked. They open it slowly and slip in. Closing the door behind them, they look around to find makeshift cages with what looks like lumps of rags in them. Then, as Sam and Ellie walk forward, the 'lumps' leap up and press themselves against the bars, snarling and growling. The teenagers scrambled backwards as one clawed hand gets a little too close for comfort. "Are those ZOMBIES?!?" Sam nods in agreement to Ellie's exclamation. Sam pauses and looks at the one closest to them. " Is- Is that Dave?" He softly asks, making Ellie freeze and really look at it too. "Oh my lord...... no, nonononononono!" She panics and falls on her way scrambling back. Their too busy panicking to hear the squeak of the door opening, or the quiet footsteps, but they notice when a long shadow covers them. They slowly turned around to see the principle. "Well, well, well. What do we have here?" He says slowly, grinning ear to ear with a heart-stopping terror-inducing smile.......
