Alone and Afraid // Beyblade Burst // Zombie Apocalypse AU

Prologue

Valt's POV

I sighed, curled up in my corner shaking from fear of what had just happened.

God how many days has it been? How many weeks? How many months? I've lost tracked by now but I know it's been less than a month but who knows, my sense of time could be off.

I nervously glanced at the figure in front of me lying on the floor all sprawled out and mangled up. Blood and pieces of flesh were everywhere, making my stomach churn. My bloodied bat laid beside it, surprisingly not broken. It was a dead corpse indeed, or should I say undead?

A zombie it was definitely, I came to that conclusion a bit far too late though. I remember thinking it was someone, an actual human being, inside the room of this abandoned, blue, two-story house. The two-story house was a bit damaged, I assumed it was either raided by some people which I hoped it was or that it was bombarded with zombies of all kinds. Whatever it was there probably wasn't gonna be much supplies but it doesn't hurt to look right? And so I entered the abandoned building, alone and afraid.

I had heard shuffling in this room and what sounded like eating, I thought— no, I didn't think, I knew it was a zombie, but I had hoped. I had prayed and hoped that it was a human being. Not a zombie eating... erm.. flesh.. human flesh... that it was some safe and sound person eating whatever, be it some beef jerky, chocolate, or even insects. I had hoped it was the latter.

But look where hoping got me.

As soon as I opened the door I was met with a horrible rotten stench of what I could only assume was flesh. Human flesh.

There was the zombie chomping on someone. Only a single one though which was quite rare since usually zombies would gather in packs and roam around the streets together like a crowd. However there was this single one.

Which was good considering the less zombies there is the less in danger you are but the thing was that it was a child. A child out of all ages. Well a baby could have been worse but they wouldn't be able to eat people.. I think..

That child looked no more than the age of 7 which was horrible. That kid had a future. A bright future! Which was all crushed in a second as the zombies came about. No, wait, it was crushed when he became infected not when the zombies attacked. He had a chance. A chance to live and make it out.

But here he was a zombie. God why was fate so cruel? This boy didn't do anything!

It broke my heart how much this kid reminded me of Toko as well. God they both had the same blue hair and green eyes. Just looking at the kid made my stomach twist and churn. I wanted to so desperately just save that kid from becoming what he was now but I can't. There is no cure to this. Not one yet. I hope.

I have no clue on what happened to Toko nor Nika nor the rest of my family. I can only pray that they are safe and sound.

Same thing for my friends. I have no clue where they are. I can only pray that they are safe and sound.

Although if you were wondering what this child zombie was eating... well it appeared to be.. their family..

Usually when being bitten you turn into a zombie although most times a zombie would rather eat you than just wait until you become a zombie like them. In special cases zombies would eat other zombies but that's usually rare.

I guess that the child was turned into one first and then started eating them. I don't know if any other members of their family got away, I'm hoping, but most likely not.

I'm alone. I haven't seen any human being at all ever since when the zombies all broke out and started terrorizing everyone. I just happened to be on my way to school, I was waiting at the corner for the others to show up so we could all walk to school together but then I heard screaming and cries and saw people running. Someone then had suddenly grabbed my hand and made me run with them too, I didn't know what was going on at the time. I never watched the news besides Beyblade news, news was boring so I had not a single clue on what was going on.
