Mumei slid the door close 'shh' as it made a sound and upon closing it made a low thud. Her heart stopped for a moment she turn her head left and then right, she sighed as there happened to be no zombies around.
She stepped forward and stopped at the window, she stared at the zombies below then her eyes wander for a few while. A few breathes after Mumei slowly went to the staircase intending to go down but she notice a trail of blood going up, she quickly recalled what Yuki's friend statement was ''she... Hiori-san... she got bitten. a group of zombie suddenly ran towards us and she who's behind us blocked it then her weapon broke.. she blocked them with her arm... that's all I saw''
She pursed her lips ''just how deep was the bite for it to leave a trail like this'' she said almost crying
She cautiously followed the trail of blood, she passed the two floors without any trouble though the fourth floor have a few zombies roaming around it, when she saw the few zombies she quickly slowed down her breathing as she crouched then she slowly followed the blood in front of her that is smudge probably from the zombie that followed Hiori. The trail of blood led her to the rooftop's door Mumei took a breather first then she readied herself for the worst then her hand reached for the door knob, she twist it then the door opened and there she saw Hiori sitting on the floor with her legs straight her back leaning on the railing.
Mumei's breathing stopped she walked towards the girl who seems to be sleeping sitting, she called her name ''Hiori… Hiori'' it came out somewhat broken she got closer to her and she see her clearly now. Hiori's arm that was bitten is very deep though it stopped bleeding the blood around it was somewhat black.
Mumei gasps as she looks at it, the corner of her eyes reddened as it gets watery. She kneeled at Hiori's side as her two hands reached for her cheek lifting her head a bit, her nose and mouth are both bleeding with black blood and on her eyes a small trail of normal blood.
Mumei couldn't stopped her tears, she cried. Her heart hurting like its been pinned by a thousand needles.
She cried kneeling while hugging her, her chin on Hiori's head.
After a few moment she heard a low growling coming out on the girl she's hugging 'ahh, she's turning..'
Mumei sniffled then she forced herself to stop crying. "hey Hiori… would you forgive me?"
"…"
"you know… I kind of missing your chatter"
"…"
Mumei chuckled then she hugged Hiori from behind, her arms wrapped around on Hiori's waist and her back against the low railing, she struggled standing up but she still did it. The railing was only a person's waist high.
"Hiori… I'm sorry. I know about it and yet I played dumb I… I also like you like how you like me"
"..."
"who wouldn't notice when you looked at me so.. so sweetly"
"also you looked so hurt when you looked at me in the last few months and yet you still force yourself to smile at me"
"…"
"you stupid"
Mumei nestled her forehead at the back of Hiori's head then she leaned backwards, she tightened her grip on Hiori as the both of them slowly fall off.
She said tenderly as she close both of her eyes "good night, my stupid Hiori"
And then a two figure fell down at the rooftop meeting the floor head first, wetting the floor with red.
The zombie below heard a loud noise when they fell and so they followed the noise combining the sweet smell of fresh blood, the zombie came running to where they fell and ate a feast.
… …
Yuki who happened to be looking outside saw it, caught by surprised at what he was looking he cried silently.
Kaede who went out to follow after Mumei sae the two fell at the rooftop he was shouting Mumei's name but the latter didn't hear him, he kneeled as he punched the railing in front of him 'ahhhhhh!'
He was so close yet so far, Kaede slowly stood up and looked below and saw a swarm of zombies at their body "I wouldn't be able to bury you two, I'm sorry… but I wish you both to rest in peace"
Then he cried silently
Kaede went back to their classroom class 2-A,also their temporary shelter for the time being. His eyes red and puffy he lifelessly looked at Yuki's back and asked ''are you happy now?"
Yuki was standing at the window staring outside he heard kaede asking him a question so he wiped his face then turned around and looked at him back and said sarcastically "yes, very happy" then he coldy snorted
''you fucking psycho."
Yuki shrugged and when he saw Kaede walking away he mumbly said "it runs in the family" he turned around facing the window again and blankly stares at the reddening sky outside, then he sighed as he said sadly "of course im not happy, how would I be? when she died in front of me holding another person. ha haha"
Kaede didn't bother him anymore and walked to where his friends are and discussed to them if they're willing to go with him the group were puzzled and asked what happened and why
he told them the gist of it and he let them decide if they want to or not.
they decided to go and follow him. it's still better than getting your back stabbed out of nowhere.
No one knows what is going to happen, only they can decide what to do after.
But the 'future' them will be the only one to know about it.
