Chereads / Beast Tamer Harem In The Apocalypse / Chapter 4 - Parent issues huh-

Chapter 4 - Parent issues huh-

He had his hands behind his back. Standing like he would tear you apart the moment you moved.

Also- it was pretty obvious he was already a zombie. There was a small bite mark on his neck, barely visible but it had most certainly broken the skin, but it had already clotted.

Before anyone could even think. I instinctively dropped the food in one of my hands and swung the skeleton stand, hitting the base of the stand on his head.

Sadly though as soon as the base made contact with his skull it bent into a weird shape. But it did its job, I don't believe it was enough to kill, but it sent him off balance making him fall easily.

"RUN!" I shouted and all of us dashed together not even caring about picking up the bread loaves I dropped.

We ran at top speed, as we occasionally looked back full of fear, our hearts beating hard enough that it almost felt like they would burst.

A right and then a left in the empty hallways, the fire exit was right ahead of us.

We quite literally jumped out the door, with a large yellow school bus waiting for us.

Jane was sitting behind the wheel while Frank seemed to be guarding the door against unwanted people.

Jane could only afford to raise an eyebrow when she looked at our state. Our legs fumbled and we just dropped everything in our hands to take a deep breath.

The doors of the bus opened and Frank helped us in with all our supplies.

We were all drenched in sweat, I was sure that what I ran today, was worth my whole month's worth of cardio.

I could only walk barely dragging my feet as the muscle pain had just started getting worse.

"What happened to you guys!?" Jane asked with quite the astonishment on her face.

"We ran into Mr. Johnathan..." I barely managed to speak the words between all the deep breaths I was taking.

"Arent you missing the part of him being a zombie?" Chloe stated, that her condition was definitely much better than mine since she took part in quite a lot of track and field stuff.

"How'd you get away?" Frank asked with a bit of a smile on his face, he most definitely wanted to wrestle a zombie.

"Luke smashed his head with that thing," Rim said as she pointed to the skeleton stand which was now bent but I was still tightly gripping onto it.

Jane smiled at me and then turned to Chloe "I wish Mr. Johnathan would have got you detention."

"HUH!? What do you mean miss wimpy!" Chloe yelled.

Miss Lui who was the only one in a worse state than me finally spoke "stop! Luke! where are we going?"

I thought for a while since I didn't really think all of us might make it this far.

"First my house and then Frank's" I concluded after thorough thinking.

"Why?" Chloe demanded a proper explanation this time for my choice.

"My home has some secret stuff which might help us out and Frank has got guns, a ton of them," I said with a grin.

Frank's dad is a huge gun freak, he has a whole ton of guns. I am more worried about the ammo honestly.

"Fine..." Chloe nodded with a bit of suspicion

"by the way, Frank when did your dad leave?" I asked, frank only had his dad since his mom, unfortunately, passed away in an accident while his dad was away more than 10 years ago.

"He left just a few days ago, he didn't even tell me where he was going, not like he always tells me but he just seemed to be in quite a rush," Frank said with a slight shrug.

Jane drove the bus leading us out the school gate through which a few more vehicles seemed to be leaving.

Frank's dad left just a few days ago- it was awfully suspicious that it might have been related to this, but then he would have warned Frank. Quite possibly, even he might not have known what was gonna happen.

"Rim, what about your parents?"

"Ugh... they must be in Italy or something right now- but my sis should be in the Uni," Rim replied with obvious disgust. Rim seemed to have a complicated family.

"before you ask- my parents are not here and there's no need to visit them," Chloe said quite firmly.

"I hope my parents are safe, dad should be in the hospital so he should be fine, but I am worried about my mom," Jane said while trying to hide the nervousness in her voice. it would be quite difficult to think about your family now when everyone's in danger.

"Then, we'll visit your mom once we are done getting the arms." I tried to comfort her.

"Thanks, Luke" Jane replied while wiping a tear from her eye.

We all (except Jane) turned towards Miss Lui.

She had a nervous smile on her face "actually... I kinda- ran away from- home- to this city."

We could only chuckle-

It seemed almost all of us had parental issues.

Which actually felt like a relatively nice thing, since you could focus on yourself more.

The bus was moving rather quickly since there was almost no traffic on the streets. No one seemed to be outside.

Multiple houses seemed to be wrecked.

With broken doors and windows.

Cars left on the street also had dents everywhere, heck even their glasses were broken.

Surprisingly, I couldn't seem to find any animal. Not even birds.

There was not a single bird in the sky nor the trees.

Not even insects seemed to be around.

It was quite odd.

The bus just drove in silence, as we could only hear the noise of the bus's engine.

It didn't seem like a zombie apocalypse.

It seemed to be more like everyone just went crazy for a while and then just completely disappeared.

There were no signs of life around us.

Is that what it felt like to survive in the apocalypse...
