[R/D]chapter three: hospital.

Toby POV~~~~~~~~~~~

I wake up to somebody shaking me, I open my eyes and Yelp outfits instinct.

"Come on, los muertos are gone."
(Y/n) says, smiling, damn, their smile is contagious.

I get up and follow them out of the pharmacy, humming quietly as we walk along a road, a loud roar echos around the street, making me grab (y/n)'s hand out of fearful instincts, they just sigh.

"Damn...another breed."
(Y/n) says.

"What? I dont think the dead can breed....wait, can they?"
I ask...god, that's a creepy thing to imagine.

"You really havent been outside your walls...Toby, how many kinds of los muertos are there?"
(Y/n) asks.

"Uh...boy, girl, and non-binary?"
I ask.

"No, how many breeds?"
(Y/n) asks.

"How many what?"
I mumble.

"Theres a lot more than what you saw at the building, theres the more human looking ones, the ones I call los muertos."
(Y/n) stops as a shrill shreak echos from a building, followed by another animalistic roar.

"That sound comes from a clawed breed, or just clawed as some call it."
(Y/n) says.

"...clawed?"
I whisper.

"They look more like an animal than a human, they're the ones that have been around for a lot longer, they mutate in order to not rot, and most of them gain things like claws and sharper teeth, they run on all fours and pounce when you least expect it, ripping you to shreds to eat your organs."
(Y/n) explains, I feel like my heart stops after every word.

"How many others are there...?"
I ask.

"there's the screamers, dead, the clawed, and the fakers, but that's just the breeds I've memorized since i came here, there could be a shit ton of others."
(Y/n) says, we start walking again, but I still have questions.

"I'm guessing the screamers....scream?"
I ask.

"Yeah, they draw los muertos to a survivor, then eat what's left of them after the rest leave."
(Y/n) says, making me gag.

"Gross..."
I say.

"Well, nothing in this fucked up world isnt gross."
(Y/n) says with a chuckle.

We keep walking for a while, but after a while, we come across a giant hospital.

"Fuck..."
(Y/n) mumbles.

"Why fuck? Arent hospitals good? Theres medical stuff in them....!"
I say.

"Yeah, theres probably still meds and stuff in them, but that's where a lot of people were when it all started, lots of  los muertos are in them."
(Y/n) says.

"Can we go around?"
I ask.

"Not unless we want to go headfirst into a giant raider village, the hospitals are impossible to takeover, so we could probably sneak in and out of it before los muertos can get us..."
(Y/n) starts mumbling to their self.

"Wait, didnt you just say there's a lot of the dead in there? (Y/n), I can barely keep my cool near one of them...!"
I say, (y/n) grabs my hand.

"Consider this your first lesson then, you'll need to learn how to be quiet, you never know when you're out of weapons in a building that's runover with los muertos."
(Y/n) says, leading me to the hospital by my hand, damn, thet went from against it to all for it in a really short time.

The second we open the door, everything feels off, the building reeks of dead flesh, and growling and groans echo the walls.

"(Y/n)...I'm too scared, a don't think a hospital is where i should be, i can't fight those...things!"
I whisper, (y/n) sighs and digs in their pockets, handing me a pocket knife.
