Chapter 5 - END OF AN ERA

"WHAT IS THIS!! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR WORLD" I said as I saw the current scene

in Samar's arm who had taken the three of us and moved out of the medical barn

everything was in chaos, the town I grew up in was no longer like a town, the roads were filled with blood the creature that attacked us were swarming the place and now most of them had scars on their body that were bleeding, some were even lacking body parts...I was so shocked I couldn't even think straight it was all too much to consume at once

Even Suzuki and Sin who were the most composed of us were unable to fully comprehend what was going on...

"What is happening here, this is all like a movie midway of an apocalypse!, IS THIS THE END OF THE HUMAN ERA!? " said Suzuki who was afraid, it was for the very first time that we saw him that way, seeing him like that made me gather my composure, if we all lost it then we wouldn't survive is what I realized

"Let go of me there is no telling what will happen to our class! there may be more of these zombies going there" Sin said while trying to get free of Sam

but Sam's power was overwhelming and none of us were able to let free he was killing all the creatures on the road even while holding us

the road we were in was completely out of the zombies, Sam makes a deep cut on his arm using his mouth while still holding on to us and draws a circle with his very own blood.."save...everyone "

*thudd*

"wahhh...Sam are you alright" asked Sin when we fell down, even Suzuki came back to his cool and Sam was no longer bleeding

"I have analyzed the situation, I guess even when he was not controlling his body he still was instinctively trying to protect us"not talking about how Sam fell down as now he was in complete control mode and was having a clear goal

"Hey Sam your motive won't go to waste I will save all of us" I remained silent as Sin said that I was angry that he is already assuming that Samar was dead, I hated that about him but I couldn't do anything as fighting amongst ourselves was just pointless

before I could realize I was losing it, but still I held back my tears. Suzuki checked Sam's pulse "don't you dare go killing Sam..although weak, his pulse is still beating," said Yamamoto with rage

"ohh I am sorry I didn't mean it that way I meant saving everyone when I said that I was including Sam too I mean when you are here why won't we be able to save him anyways he wanted us to save everyone didn't he, but living here is no longer possible..to spit the facts, probably no one from our families are alive so we have to get out of here before we become zombie food and for that, I know a way of escape, my dad owns an amazingly huge yet fast motorboat and that's our best bet at survival it has a miniature plane attached at its back and has fully equipped medical room we were supposed to go for a trip on it after returning from Andaman island

although it was his life's greatest saving and asset he probably never used it" said Sin tearing up a bit..

Yamamoto gave him a hand on the shoulder I felt extremely sad, I thought so ill of Sin just a few seconds ago.... I realized the importance of talking your feelings out

"guys U go ahead and get everyone I'll guard Sam here"..." what are you talking about Tina there is no telling when will the zombies appear again," said Suzuki.. "no I will take care of him here," I said looking down with no way to defy Suzuki's logic

"No! I guess she is right, thinking back there was no reason for him to cut himself and drop his blood in a circle that could hold just one person perhaps it was a shield of some sort that kept zombies away and anyways we wouldn't be able to protect him if we went ahead carrying him on our back you guys do realize that how durable those creatures are right this is the best choice we have"..." but still"...said Yamamoto to Sin's words "no buts " Sin passes me the gun he got from Yamamoto "still hold on to that just in case"

"hey Suzuki get me a big gun The docking place may be nearby but so will the zombies be"

"man do you think I am some sort of gangster well anyways follow me"..." of course you are not but with the gun, you showed me in the barn there is no way in hell you don't have a big gun in here," said Sin while moving away from our place

I was with Sam all alone, I took it as a responsibility upon myself to not let any harm reach him, I kept my mind away from thinking straight by distracting my self, although Sam's blood had clotted at the same time he finished making the circle I was still worried that he may loose blood and so I made a bandage out of the shawl I wear

"Here you go an M60 machine gun, "..."man I was expecting heat but this ain't heat this is the fire itself, you sure you're dad's a doctor?" said sin trying to be funny although I didn't like it I still understood that he didn't mean to hurt me

"he is a rather paranoid doctor, "I said, (ohh yea I am Yamamoto and me and the others are going to be taking over based on the location we would be at, man I wish that Samar bastard would wake up quick this is too much work for us, what kind of a protagonist is he, going down in the first arc!)

"anyways let's meet up with the guys and then get on to our work quick"..." yea but... ohh you already got it...you are definitely a gangster "..." come on let's go, " I said holding two more SMG's with me

We got to the barn and met up with the guys"Heyy Suzuki what happened where are Tina and Sam" said a breathless Karan

"They are safe for now boss but for now listen to me without panicking alright ill just spit straight facts in small words, alright ready? "

"yes? "..everyone took a gulp and were ready for my facts which I was trying to make as smooth as possible...

"All of our families are dead, the human era is probably ending, for all I know we may be the last humans, we have to go ahead and save ourselves from the world engulfed with zombies by reaching the dock and leaving here in a motorboat whose key we have to search for in my place, now don't lose your consciousness please as there is still the chance of this happening just here but as far as a Zombie Apocalypse scenario goes that is not likely, anyway don't pass out or you would be making it tougher for everyone" *Kenny passes out*

"ahh.. ahh.. ahhh WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU SAY IT LIKE THAT SIN! " I said grabbing his collar and tearing up, I was spending so much time to say it in a way to prevent anyone from collapsing wahhhh"

"well I thought you were laying the facts so I said it faster than you"

"We get the idea we were sort of preparing ourselves when we saw the first creature but thanks for making it so blunt, poor Kenny," Said Karan as he picks him up

"Alright now let's plan what we are going to do? "..." what do you mean aren't we just supposed to go for the dock as of right now," said Avinashi

"no...that would be in the worst-case scenario but right now no matter how bad it is it still isn't the worst-case scenario of being completely surrounded by zombies which is not the case thanks to Sam killing this entire area out so now our best course of action is splitting into three groups.. 1st group with 4 members and the second group with 4 members and the third group with 13 members, I have decided who is going to do what in which group, the 1st group would comprise of Me, Sapna Jannat and Uthpal"

"what me! "said Sapna who was the smartest in our class in almost everything except medical that title goes to Mr haha and she is also the kind of nerds I like but she has a confidence problem

"yea I need you as this work needs your help here, the first group's job. securing all the top class medicine in this barn, getting all kinds of food from the supermarket, books from the library and daily necessities from the general stores and some tools required for wild survival that's why I need you since your dad is a wildlife expert and the final job of getting Tina and Samar safely to the dock"..." oh"

"The second group will comprise of Avinashi, Mira, Arun and Riyaz who will get as much fuel as they can from the petrol bunk we need absolute maximum fuel, as much as a human can carry at a time, times 4"..."count me in I no problem, "said Riyaz and Arun together who were the best vehicle expert in our group

"I know that's why I told your name if its fuel your the wool (I still don't know what the hell that means I mean if it said dude at the end I could still agree but wool? yet if we speak to them about vehicles they always say that)" everyone gives me the 'cringe bro' look

"and finally the third group would comprise of the rest with Sindbad leading them to the dock"... we need maximum safe people and hence all of you should grab a tool of the sort while Sin has a machine gun with him"....." yea son ill ensure all of you reach safely to the dock" said Mr. Choube...he felt too sad I could understand a little about why he would be sad and I felt slight pity towards him

"Alright guys we have 7 guns here and including Avinashi's and Ganesh's cellphone we have four phones total so the ones with most numbers take two cells and 3 guns along with tools from the storage room as a last resort strategy and the other two groups with divide the guns and phones equally"

"Heyy we just have the two SMGs you had and this machine gun I have which everyone didn't even notice.. chuck I thought of looking all cool with it"..." whoa that's right you have a machine gun with you"..said Arun who is amazed by such things" haha thank you very cool of me" *woooooooo dud* I pressed a button opening a secret drawer with top-class weapons"

"of course..of course, you had more guns you son of a *" Said Sin slightly smug and proud

"Alright guys at the count of three all of us get to our jobs"..." no at the count of our gang anthem," said Karan when everyone gives that determined smile

everyone agreed, although it sounded a little cringe we still said it in any tournament we went and had everyone laugh on us as it is kind of dramatic and not suiting a competition but everyone that laughed on us were coming up with their own version of it after we beat them in the game

everyone made a circle and kept their hands at the center except Mr choube who gave a happy and trusting smile from the background by looking at us who seemed slightly relieved now and all of us shout together

"EVEN WHEN WE FACE A LION THE SOUL OF THE BULL WILL BREAKTHROUGH IT, WITH HORNS OF OUR CONVICTION THE BULLS WILL REGIN SUPERIOR TO ANYTHING ELSE...BULLS MOVE OUT!! "
