Chapter 5 - Chapter Five: The Breakthrough

Eric Jonas

You can hear echoing slaps and shouts from Blessie and Dianne including Jake who is trying to cease the rage between them. It was hilarious that no one bothered to stop them, anyway who cares, were tired not to mention were stocked in this school by selfish people outside. And the worst? It was like a hit of an apocalypse, we were surrounded by zombies, as it was called.

"Shut up flirt!"

"You big head!"

"You're a clingy brat!"

"Plastic! Even China denied that they made you!" (Note: This is Fiction. And doesn't aim to discriminate nor destroy reputation.)

"Shut up snail! Go and find SpongeBob!"

I can't help but to smile secretly because of the words they're throwing. It was laughable, for me tho. And the words they're using in teasing each other are funny. You might think I'm crazy, but hell, who cares.

But of course, the voice of the man they're fighting for will never be missing who keeps on stopping the wicked two. Everyone knows, in this room except for Blessie that Dianne and Jake has commitment, not official but yeah, they had a good chemistry.

It is just that, everyone also knew that every relationship will pass through a forest and it would be impossible if snake doesn't exist. And so we consider Blessie.

Good thing that Dianne haven't told any of their commitment to Blessie due to the fight, she has doubts after all, Jake sometimes shows a hint of no assurance. It's hard to claim that Jake, the varsity really committed to her. Once she spilt it out, Jake might deny, of course in front of the loving lady.

"How dare you!" Then a slap echoed. "What the f*vk!" We heard a scream due to, probably, pulling of the hair.

Next sound that dance around our ears is continuous barging knocks from the door. It could be from the boys who went for the food.

Ma'am's voice ordered those who are closest to the door to open it. Then they entered with hard breathes, struggling. They put down the 3 garbage bag, inside it are foods, in a very tiring way.

While the others made their way to the goods and started littering around the cookies and juice packs. I can't help but to stand and grab mine. Good that I got three cookie packs, and a juice.

Everyone becomes quite, eating their food like it's the last one we would intake. I gaze at the big sliding window of the library, giving a clear picture of the setting sun. The time's probably six or late five.

Everyone took a nap and so was I. Enjoying the, maybe, only quick peace. The two might start a war again. I close my eyes and started to crave for a good sleep, luckily I was able to grab the pillow in the librarians chair to sleep on with the wooden tiles.

And so I guess a while ago, I'm just about to hold on my sleep when the two started the argue once again. The others are asleep, and probably will not be awaken by any sound because of too much exhaustion to handle or they are just used to it.

Mylbie moved by my side, "I can't sleep," she said as she approached me. "Yeah, I can't sleep because of their yells," I tiringly replied.

"To kill time, and helps us sleep, hopefully, why don't we play a game?", she offered with widest smile ever. I scratch my cheeks, I don't why, it becomes itchy.

"What game?", I asked motivated. "QNA!", She grinned. The eight side of my nose lift, "Eh, isn't that to gay?", I tried to give the best reason, but unable to give her a look.

"Of course it's not, every male pageant has QNA too," she defended. "Gay pageant," trying to correct her.

"No, there is, now let's go with the first question," she excitedly said, and always a winner of all choices. "Yeah, yeah." I said in a tiring and boring way, trying to equal her excitement but obviously, I failed.

"If you were given a chance to fix anything in the world, what could it be?" Her eyes with excitement. "I will fix the error that brings my existence." Trying to be honest, she looks quite down.

"Are you sure, that is? Remember that anytime that might happen, who knows, I'm just saying." She sighed. I tried to give an apologetic look but seems I failed, I just ruined the mood. Sorry for her, she can just leave anyway.

I gaze around, everyone's asleep, except for ma'am who is reading a book, trying to be alert anytime, glad that she wasn't able to hear our whispers, or just maybe she heard but no react, me and Mylbie, but of course the remaining three who are involved with the fight.

"Wanna die!" Dianne's voice echoed, unknowingly that something bad might happen.

"Now die!" She added and opened the widest window, where I gaze earlier for the setting sun, letting the green smoke enter. Mylbie and I covered our mouth so was ma'am.

Next thing we knew, the three who first inhaled the gas change to something, jumped from the wide window.

"Everyone wake up! Don't breathe!" Yelled ma'am under her covered mouth. But it's a bit late many becomes infected, now started to chase us.

Someone grabs Mylbie's leg but I help her after throwing the vase to the one who grab. Four people, probably, went out the room.

Ma'am carried us and drag us to the corridors until we we're able to stand and run, with chasing zombies behind us.

When we reach the ground we we're greeted by the zombies,it's yard for us to turn back, since another group of then chase us from behind.

"Run," ma'am said. "Save your life."

He stood in the huge wave and stop them, but someone was able to pull Mylbie's hair, then she fell on the ground, now struggling to breathe.

Nothing able to help her, we exchange breathe, now she's unconscious, and carried her to the closest uninfected zone, our classroom.
