Beautiful Flower

"A sudden raise in hospital patients have risen some questions in the areas. Please if you have any of the symptoms below please contact-"

Watching the screen turn black; Akazawa turned to see his uncle dressed in his work overalls. His arms were crossed and his face was stern. His normally shaggy purple hair was slicked back revealing his green eyes.

"Dotanda I was watching that!"

"I don't care Akazawa...Shouldn't you and your sister be getting ready for school?"Dotanda looked at his clothes and sighed,"Are you going to miss school again?" Akazawa gave a small nod; before he could speak to him about the importance of going to school his sister came walking down the stairs.

"Kiragi, please tell your brother that he should at least go to school once a week" Awazawa glared a bit as he crossed his arms.

Kiragi looked between her uncle and brother before letting out a defeated sigh. Taking a seat next to him Kiragi noticed that Akazawa was a lot more stressed than normal.

"What would mom and dad think of you skipping so much school?" Awazawa looked at her before letting out a gentle sigh.

"Not happy"

"Exactly; that's why you should go to school for atleast one day a week," she said.

Akazawa smiled at his little sister knowing she was right. Standing up he walked past his uncle and went into his bedroom to change out of his work clothes and into the school uniform.

"I don't know how many more excuses the school will take before they start asking questions." Dotanda sighed softly before walking into the kitchen to grab his work lunch.

"If they haven't worried about it now; then it should hold up for a little while longer."Kiragi straightened out her lilac colored hair as she made her way to him.

"I'm off, tell Akazawa not to be late" she gave him a tender kiss on the cheek and walked out the house.

Dotanda watched as she left; a faint smile crossed his face. She was so much like his sister and it sometimes hurt to look at her because of that. Pulling out the coffee pot, he poured it in a cup when he heard Akazawa open his bedroom door and come down to the living room and kitchen.

"I'm off" he noted the troubled look on Akazawas face but said nothing more.

"Have a good day; I promise the shop will be fine" He watched his nephew give a faint nod to him and quickly walk out the house.

Dotanda knew that his nephew was worried about him; and he appreciated all that Akazawa offers. But he also knew that his sister would have his head on a pike if he let him continue to skip school. Looking to the clock and saw he still had a few hours before he went to work; he sat on the couch and turned on the t.v.

"United States has just closed off all sources to enter the country due to an epidemic. We are unsure as to what this epidemic is but we will keep you up to date on any new information." Dotanda watched as the footage of planes heading to America landed and boats were docked.

"Well then, hope whatever it is doesn't come here" Standing up he went to the garage to gather his work tools.

Akazawa sprinted down the road as fast as he could. He didn't really feel like going to school today for some reason but Kiragi talked him into it. He noticed a train going by which caused his sprint to become a walk. Panting softly he noticed two girls wearing his schools uniform and talking. The taller girl wore her pitch black hair in a pony tail while her green eyes looked troubled.

Not wanting to seem like a creep; he kept walking forward and stood beside them looking at the train as it past by. The girls were talking about the black haired sister and how she was being lectured by her father. The name Akagi rang a bell to him as he thought back to all the students that he knew of but some reason he couldn't put a face to the name.

Once the train rolled by he went to step forward but was bumped. Looking over he saw the girl blushing.

"Oh sorry; my friend pushed me a little too hard!" The blonde smirked at her friends explanation causing Awazawa to smile.

"it's fine I'm Awazawa by the way" the girl looked at his hand in surprise but smiled.

"Hana" she grabbed his hand and shook it. Awazawa was surprised by how soft this girls hands was as a small blush graced his features.

"Well it was nice meeting you!" Awazawa nodded; watching as Hana and her friend walked off.

Awazawa rubbed the back of his head feeling a little weird due to the interaction. He never felt so thrown off by another student let alone a female. Wrapping his scattered thoughts back together; he began crossing the railroad tracks and began to make his way to the school.

Once at the school something to Awazawa and that was the fact he hasn't seen his sister at all. Routinely, she had been at a shop with her friends before she attended school. He wondered if she already left the shop and went to school or maybe she was behind him. Which made no sense at all. Not wanting to over contemplate a simple situation, he hastily pushed the thought back and walked onto school grounds.

"Yo Awazawa!" Looking over his shoulder, he recognizes his friend Cha Min running up.

Cha Min is a Korean transfer student who moved to Japan after his father decided to expand his multi-million dollar business to Japan. Awazawa was unsure what the business was;but whatever it is must of been a hit back in South Korea. Min wore expensive clothes, and his father drove a 500,000 dollar car.

"You actually showed up!" Min smirked at Awazawa who merely glared at him.

"I'm only here for today," Awazawa briefly explained,"I have to keep supporting my uncle at the shop otherwise we might go out of business" Min looked at him in slightly understanding.

"Well does the school know you're working cause I remember I tried getting a job at the coffee shop and they fired me because the school informed them I didn't have permission to work."

"You needed a job?" Awazawa looked to his friend in surprise.

"Yeah dad cut me off because I was spending too much money" Awazawa shook his head at his friends lack of money budgeting.

"Well stop spending so much and he might allow you have money again."

"Yeah yeah", Min shook his statement away as the two boys walked into the school building.

"Did you hear actress Kieko Kitagawa was assaulted by some weird man. Turns out he bit her and she went into shock and she was taken to the hospital to treat her wounds."One of the schools girls soccer players gossiped to another student as Awazawa and Min walked down the hallway to their class.

"Wow what a nut-job. So some random child came up and bit that man on the leg; Wicked" A male student looked stunned.

"Apparently an elderly woman was rushed to the hospital because her daughter found her father chewing into the grandmas neck."

Min and Awazawa looked between all the students who were gossiping about events happening.

"Why does everyone sound like their talking about the same thing but completely different situations" Min pointed out but saw Awazawa looking at a group of girls.

"Awazawa~ Are you lonely?" Min poked his cheek with a sly grin but only frowned when he got no response.

"Awazawa?"

"T-Those girls are Kiragis friends" Awazawa mumbled softly due to the fact his sister was nowhere in sight.

"I'm certain your sister is fine" Min patted his friends shoulder and moved him past the girls.

Something didn't settle right with Awazawa once he glanced at the worried faces of her friends. He noticed one look over at him and give him the saddest look that made his blood run cold.

"And that class is why plant's are living things." The teacher tapped on the board with his ruler;making sure any students starting to doze off were jolted back to reality. Awazawa nibbled on his finger nail as his eyes stayed focus on the school yard. The sound of his teachers lecture continued to be drowned out. He couldn't stop thinking back on how the girl looked at him.

Something wasn't right, and it didn't make him feel better when he watched ambulance and fire trucks constantly driving by. So far he hasn't noticed the fact that his teacher was slowly approaching him.

"Awazawa care to explain to me what is the food chain placed as starting from plants?" Awazawa looked up at him slightly stunned. Scratching the back of his head, he let out a nervous chuckle.

"Plants are consumed by Herbivores those or eaten by either Omnivores and or Carnivores. At that time they died and are eaten by the plants."The class looked at him a bit surprised as the teacher sighed.

"That is not what I asked. But you ended up basically explaining tomorrows lesson. I let you go this time but next time I would prefer if you paid attention" Awazawa seen as he turned on his heel and stalked to the front of the class.

"You okay?" Min leaned over whispering so the teacher doesn't catch them.

"Yeah I'm fine; just thinking about Kiragi and how her friends looked at me when we walked by."

"Don't worry man I'm sure she is fine." He nodded to his friend and turned his attention back out the window to keep looking at the school grounds but it wasn't how it looked last time.

Blood was splattered on the ground as a teacher was hovering over a female student. Her body wriggling in pain as blood pooled around her. Bile rose in his troat once he saw the teacher lean back with her organs hanging out his mouth.

"WHAT THE FUCK!" He screamed shooting up in absolute shock over the sight.

"TOSHIKUNI! What is the meaning of this!"He shouted in shock of Awazawa sudden vulgar shouting.

"I-I"

"Dude what's wrong" Awazawa was frozen in his spot as images of the scenes kept playing in his head.

Before he could speak the sound of the intercom came through the speakers as it drew the attention away from an panicking Awazawa.

"Attention...all students...this is an emergency evacuation, listen to your teachers, and exit the school...May god bless" The students looked around in confusion until the teacher cleared his voice to speak.

"You heard her please-" Before he could instruct the class the sounds of screams began to break through the speakers; as pleads and begging along with agonizing screams echoed within each and every student.

"Oh god," A female student whimpered softly. Min looked to Awazawa; wearing the same fearful expression as him.

"RUN!" One of the students screamed as desk and chairs where thrown every which way as everyone attempted to escape the school.

"Holy shit" Min jumped back when a ground of male students ran to the back to go through the other door. Awazawa was pushed against the wall in their tussle to get out.

"They have gone mad," He growled rubbing his now pounding head.

"Whatever is happening, we need to find a safe place to go; leaving is not an option at the moment considering the mass horde of insane students," Min suggested as he closed the doors and locked them.

"Let's hope it clears soon...I have to see if my uncle and sister are okay." Awazawa mumbled as he looked over to the clock and noticed it was only a few hours since school started and shit already hit the fan.

"Kiragi...Uncle...Please be okay" The sound of screams continued to echo down the halls and faintly outside signalling the end of their world.
