End Of Everything (Book 1)

1: Day of the Dead

*Johnny's Pov*

Beep!!! Beep!!! Beep!!! "Come on you're gonna be late for school." My dad yelled from his suv, as I'm rushing to get ready for school. Today is a very important day. A lot of college scouts are gonna be here and I really need to make a good impression for the Michigan State Universities scouts. Words couldn't describe how badly I wanted to enroll there. I wanted to go to a college that was instate ever since mom died, I couldn't leave dad here alone.

I had finally got my hair back into the perfection it was in before it was ruined by sleep. I flew down the stairs, grabbed an apple, left out the house, and into the car.

"About time what took you so long?" Dad asked.

"Sorry it was my hair it wasn't-"

"Johnny you know us Ambrose's are born with the most perfect hair, abs, and smile." He winked cutting me off.

I laughed. "Yeah your right dad, we come from a long long line of wannabe supermodels." I said sarcastically.

"You damn right we do son" He chuckled while turning on the radio. As we stop at a stoplight, dad starts singing loud and embarssingly along with the radio.

"The record showss, that I took the blowss, and did it myyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyy-"

"Lights green dad." I face palmed hiding a smile. He's such a dork.

"C'mon, it's my favorite song. And my singing is beautiful, I could've been a singer, you know?" He winked with a smug smile on his face. I shook my head at his foolishness then stared out the window as we go forward.

We finally made it to the school. I look over to my dad and we do our cool secret handshake that ends in a hug, a I love you kiddo, and a wish of good luck as I exit the car.

I enter the bulding heading straight to my red locker. A pair of hands come across my eyes and I hear a cute little "guess who."

"Dylan?" I joked. I turn around and see the most beautiful girl in the school who is also my girlfriend, Claire. She's wearing this black Paramore shirt and a denim jacket, with a cute short black skirt with leggings and black boots to match. Her hair was so curly, her blue eyes like always I can just get lost in them. Damn she looked so gorgeous.

"Damn I knew you loved him more than me." Claire pouts with a little grin.

"Sorry its his hair its sooo perfect." I reply in my best girly voice.

"Shut up." She says while punching my arm laughing.

I laugh at her attack, pulling her closer to me to tell her I love her, and place my lips onto hers passionitaely. Even though I kiss her everyday, it's like I fall in love with her all over again. Our lips part away from each other and we share a smile.

In the corner of my eye I see Dylan (my best friend) and Olivia (Claire's best friend) walking over to us. Dylan's wearing this grey hoodie, with blue jeans, and white Nike's. His hair hiding underneath his hood, but a few curly strands are out. Olivia's wearing this white t-shirt with a black sweater jacket, blue jeans, and black Addias.

Dylan and I do our bro shake, to which Claire and Olivia fake puke in unison at us and we all laugh. They both have a huge crush on each other but they both are completely oblivious about it.

"So have you guys heard about that crazy riot in London that's been going on since last night?" Olivia asked us.

"Yeah I heard that the london bridge is falling down." Dylan joked and we all face palmed.

"Dude stop hanging with my dad you guys and your corny jokes" I chuckled.

"Great minds think a like Depp." He grins. I face palm even harder. Depp is the nickname Dylan gave me when we met. I came into class as Jack Sparrow on my first day cause dad forgot to do laundry and all I had that was clean was that halloween costume.

"But seriously guys, they said that the police are shooting people, and people are still walking after getting shot in the chest." Olivia tells us.

"That's impossibl-" I started to say but was cut off by our teacher Mr. Yang who really doesn't look that well. He has a bandage on his hand. I wonder what happened to him.

"You guys get to class the bells gonna ring." He says.

"You got it teach, and sir what happened to your hand?" Dylan asked.

"Oh some delinquent bit me trying to mug me this morning."

"Oh damn did you kick his ass?" Dylan asked.

"I should write you up for swearing... but you damnn right I did." He says and we laugh. "Alright head to class before y'all get in trouble."

"Okiedokie." We all say and head for class. Olivia and I both have Mr. Yang first. As we wait for him to comeback from the bathroom Olivia and I are talking about the college scouts coming today, which schools we'd love to go too, and careers that we are aiming for.

"I like really can't wait to become a cardiologist, it's just something about the heart that I love so dearly and I'd like to fix them." She says geeked.

"Well while your having fun with your hearts, I'll be kicking ass in engineering and I plan to still be wrestling in college. You know it's more than a sport, it's an art." I saluted while wiping a fake tear from my eye. Olivia laughs and calls me a "dork" and I thank her for the compliment.

Mr. Yang comes back looking worse than ever but manages to introduce the college speakers to us. He takes a seat then puts his head down on his desk. I wonder what's wrong with him, it wasnt't like him to put his head down during a speaker.

As the speakers finished giving their speeches that took over the whole hour, Mr. Yang finally rises from his seat but something was really off he didn't say a word to any of us as we all stare at him. His eyes open flashing a new glossy grey instead of blue.

"Is he okay?" A scout asked. He walks to him to make sure he's okay. But as he does, blood comes spraying on a few of my classmates and scouts as Mr. Yang bites a chunk out of that poor man's neck. Everyone begins to scream and panic. What the fuck?!

"Holy shit, holy shit, he's dead he's fucking dead!!!" Olivia screams. As everyone starts to run not knowing what the hell to do and in shock on what just happened. The fire alarm goes off. I take Olivia's hand telling her to "come on we have to find them." Olivia nods and we make it out of the classroom. It was utter chaos I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Mr. Yang wasn't the only one that wanted people for a meal. There's more...a lot more. Olivia screams.

"Johnny behind you!!" I turn to see that very dead scout who became Mr. Yang's dinner, rise from the ground. He looks at me with ice cold dead eyes, just like Mr. Yang's . His head was crooked from the missing piece of neck meat, as he walked to us. He lunges at me but I dodge him. I take Olivia's hand and run. 'I got to find them, they have to be okay' I thought. I pray inside that my best friend and the love of my life are still alive, as we run down the halls, trying to avoid being eaten alive.
