Chapter 46- Goodbye Mate
Chapter 46- Goodbye Mate
Ha!
Ha!
Micah reached the roof of the gymnasium and was breathing heavily. He landed from the ledge with a thud before he hurried over to the other side of the roof and leaned Yoon-min against the wall.
Clang!
Bang!
The messy footsteps of the zombies echoed out behind him before the first one frantically rushed over the ledge and landed hard on the roof. The others followed suit and similarly landed haphazardly on the ground.
There were many metal bars scattered on the roof, likely from the discarded sections of the stair tower that the construction workers renovating the gymnasium this winter forgot, or ignored cleaning up.
Micah picked up one nearby that was around a meter in length and rushed toward the zombies before they could get up.
Bang!
The sound of metal making contact with a human's skull was very distinct. There was even a faint sound of something cracking that accompanied it.
Angered beyond reason, Micah had not held back any of his strength, and like a world-renowned baseball player, he swung the metal bar and sent the first zombie tipping over the edge of the roof, its skull bursting open in a gruesome fashion.
While the sound of the first zombie falling against the stair tower to the ground echoed out, Micah quickly swung at the second one which was lunging at him from the ground.
Stay tuned with empire
Bang!
Micah swung down with all his strength, but rather than hitting the zombie's head, the metal bar missed and instead hit the zombie's neck, which was followed by a sickening crack echoing out.
The zombie fell to the ground, its limbs unmoving due to its spine being fractured, however, its mouth was still opening and closing as it snarled at Micah.
Due to utilizing his full strength in both swings, Micah was unable to gather his strength in time to deal with the third zombie. Mid-swing, the zombie lunged at Micah, and having already committed to the swing he was unable to retreat in time. The zombie like a starving wolf sunk its teeth into Micah's forearm.
After a minute of crying Micah seemed to calm down somewhat. He sniffled and then said while wiping his face.
"I wish this were a movie. If it was, you would have definitely been revived somehow because you didn't deserve to die like this. As for that two-faced bastard Ye-jun and that ungrateful cunt, even after I become a zombie I'll torment them throughout the school."
That deep-rooted hatred in Micah's heart rose once again and set his eyes a blaze. However, it dimmed for a moment as he glanced at Yoon-min one final time.
For some reason, Yoon-min wasn't turning like the other students after getting bitten, but this was similar to Ho-jin back at the tennis court.
Micah suspected there were types for this zombie virus, but he didn't have time to ponder about it. There was no doubt about what would happen to him after being bitten, he could feel it. His inner organs felt like they were burning, and his heartbeat was way past the pace of what was considered normal.
What was more telling, he felt this urge, this inkling of thirst, as if he was severely dehydrated.
The feeling was faint, but it was rapidly getting worse.
Micah ruffled Yoon-min's hair and said with a slight smile.
"Goodbye, mate."
He then stood up and went to sit on the edge of the roof next to Yoon-min. Glancing down at his hand, he saw that despite his light skin tone, it was clearly visible that his veins had turned pitch-black.
Micah glanced up and overlooked the school's football field while his timer ticked down.
After two minutes his body began to shake. Micah gritted his teeth, and he bared the pain of his organs being set aflame, especially his lungs, they felt like they were in an inferno.
But all of a sudden, the intense pain suddenly disappeared. However, Micah's body slacked as he went unconscious; being on the edge, he fell from the roof as a result. Though, at the last moment before he turned, his eyes had drifted from the field to the middle school across from it.
Small figures could be seen running around, but the way in which they were running around was reminiscent of the zombies Micah had seen so far.
There were zombies on the middle school campus, which meant the virus had already spread from the high school.
'Jin's gonna have it hard... I hope he at least survives.'
This was the last thought that ran through Micah's mind as he fell from the edge of the roof and landed on the steps leading to the gymnasium's entrance unmoving.
