Chapter one

It had been around a year since the break out how do I know this, well you see I've been trapped in my highschool since it broke out. So keeping track of the days has been pretty easy when you've got a calendar on the wall.

My name is Keira West I was 16 and a Junior when the apocalypse started, before the Z virus I lived with my parents and my older sister. My mum was a doctor at the local hospital and my dad was special forces, my sister had just graduated and had just left to travel before she settled down into a 9 to 5 job. As for me I was a cheerleader, the captain to be exact; I wasn't like the other cheerleaders I had good grades, I didn't party, oh I'm also still a virgin I've never even kissed a guy despite dating the head of football….. Well for the most part I wasn't like other cheerleaders.

So back to the present day here I am locked in a classroom with a few remaining students that have managed to survive so far. Let's introduce you to the group; Hannah and Amy the last remaining cheerleaders of the cheer squad, both very pretty despite the lack of grooming over the last year. Hannah was mixed race she has long brown hair which at the ends had red dye that had grown out overtime, she was around 5'6 and still wore her cheer uniform like the rest of us. Amy has blonde hair and blue eyes your typical stereotype for a cheerleader really, she was so tall with super long legs which I envied. Then there was Brett he was my boyfriend's best friend and he dates Hannah well dated or whatever is going on with them two, you'd think in times like this relationship drama would be a thing of the past but how very wrong you are. He was around 6'2 and wore his blue football jacket. Next was Claire and Cameron they were nerds/ dorks/ geeks those kind of people, they didn't like us very much even now in the apocalypse they held onto the past antics of the cheerleaders and football squad. Then there's Sam and Ethan, Sam had only started at the school a week before it all broke out so he hadn't yet fell into a social group and Ethan didn't care what group he belonged to he was a loose cannon. Finally there's me a cheerleader of course, I was 5'2 long brown hair and soft brown eyes.

We had made base in one of the old science classrooms, the main classroom door was locked up with cabinets and tables which only moved when we needed to go out. There was another door in the stock room which led to the other classroom which of course was filled with z's, we kept that door locked and never went in the stock room, it wasn't worth the risk of them getting in. Once a week two of us would leave the base and go to classrooms along the hallway and try and scavenge food that had been left by past students and survivors. When this started up there were over thirty of us in this classroom trying to hold it together now there's just eight of us, some left thinking they could make it out the school, others died while going to get supplies and some got sick and turned z.

I think the hardest part is watching people who you grew up with turn into these creatures. One minute you were taking history with Ryan from down the road who came to your sixth birthday next thing Ryan is history. You never get used to watching them turn, watching the person you once loved become dead, then having to make that choice to put them down before they put you down.

Anyway moving on it was time for this week's supply run, to make it fair we asked if anyone wanted to go and if not everyone's name was in a cup and two were pulled out. Most of the time Ethan and Brett would go and on occasions Sam would as well, since being on lockdown I've only been on two supply runs. The reason for that is Brett and the others don't believe we can handle ourselves, they'd rather go out and get the job done then add to the body count. Once again Brett and Ethan volunteered, only with today they were going to have to leave the science block and venture to a different block. We had raided all the safe classrooms on this block, the rest were filled with z's too many for just two people to take on and with their being a limited amount of us we all agreed it was a risk we weren't willing to take.

"Do you guys remember the plan" Cameron stressed to Brett and Ethan

"Yeah man, go to the end of the hall turn left and keep going until we get to the stairs. We've then got the choice to either go up to the history block or down towards the main hall." Brett answered

"But we're not going towards the main hall, we're going up to history." Ethan cut in

"That's right, if we think about it the main hall is going to be crawling with z's but history might be like this block and quite. Not many people had history on a Wednesday so there might even be less" Cameron spoke again

"You forgot z's can walk, there might not have been many people in history when this broke out but that doesn't mean z's havent walked up there or even other survivors went up a floor trying to escape" I butted in

"Your right but there's nothing to worry your pretty little head about princess, you're not the one going up" Claire said as she pushed me aside to get to Cameron

"I might not be the one going up there but I don't want to lose anymore of us, this last month we've lost three people" I spat back

"Like you gave a damn about them, you only care about yourself just like all other cheerleaders",squaring up to me she said

"Why you such a bitch?" I squared up to her

"It's obvious Keira, even in the apocalypse she's still a freak" Hannah came to my side

"I'm surprised she's lasted this long, isn't like she's much use" Amy stepping to my other side spoke

"Coming from you two, what use are you? All you do is sit around moaning and when you're not doing that you're sleeping with each other" Cameron butted in

"Will everyone just chill out! It's the end of the fucking world and instead of working together we're arguing like nothing's happened. Get a grip" Sam shouted, causing us all to fall into silence with just the sound of z's next door.

"Sorry Sam" I muttered

"Right now that we've had our daily fight it's time to head out" Ethan said patting Brett on the back going towards the door.

Nodding Brett followed, smiling of his shoulder at us once again, "see you guys in a bit"

As they left the classroom and we sealed up the door with a desk and waited to hear something.

~ Some time later~

"Fuck, fuck, fuck" Brett shouted as he now ran from the undead Ethan.

See as much as they said they were going up to history they lied, instead they went down to the main hall. In their minds there would be more supplies to bring back so then they wouldn't have to go out again so soon and there couldn't be that many z's down there right? It was midweek last lesson before the end of the day and the majority of students had given up by dinner and went home the only reason Brett was still in was because he was waiting for Hannah to finish cheerleading practice. So with that logic they ventured down to the main hall, it soon became apparent that there were a lot more people in then they thought on a Wednesday. They were running towards the bathroom that was a few classrooms away until Ethan tripped and was grabbed by a Z that had been catching up with them, instead of Brett turning to help him he left him for dead as fear took over as more z's gathered round Ethans body. His screams echoed throughout the hall until it was just the sound of z's, turning back the now undead Ethan joined the chase.

Running through the hallway dodging a few wondering z's he collided with someone making him trip and fall to the ground.

"Get up, it's not over yet,'' A man's voice shouted as hands grabbed him and pulled him to his feet.

"Is there anywhere safe we can go" A women shouted.

"Yeah, yeah, follow me" Brett stammered as more z's approached.

With that he started running again, now with a mystery woman and her group following him. Dodging a few z's and killing others Brett ran back toward the science block with the group, luckily he knew a different way to get back there seeing as the way he and Ethan came was now full of z's and Zombie Ethan leading the charge for brains. The classroom was in site, they had managed to lose most of the z's and the remaining ones were killed off by the group, hammering on the door Brett shouted to be let in. The door opened and everyone piled in before the door was sealed once again.

Turning to Brett we saw the group that had come in with him, they had weapons and looked to be doing a lot better than us.

"Umm who are you guys" Cameron demanded

"I'm Roberta Warren but you can call me Warren, that's Doc, Addy, Mac, Murphey and 10k" Warren listed everyone in the order they had piled in.
