Teens & the end of the world Chapter 7


They stopped to acknowledged the horrendous sight that stood before them, for they saw hundreds of those things they had just ran away from, except some of them were missing limbs like arms or legs or even both, they had completely covered the high schools car park with people being eaten and the loudest and most spine chilling groans they had ever heard. The boys suddenly realised what they are seeing “holy mother of god...” Lewis said as he gazed at what they believed to be ‘hell on earth’. They suddenly remembered they were being chased, “quick into this bush and wait for that.. thing to pass” said Lewis as he pointed to a large green bush on the left of the path, they all dived into the bush trying not to make a lot of noise. The man that was chasing them ran by, the boys all held their breaths, but the man ran straight into the large crowd. Rob started to bite his nails “uh guys, what are we supposed to do?!” he said, his voice drowned with panic “shhh u stupid idiot, keep your voice down, the last thing we need is for them to hear us” whispered Herbie, “I say we head for my house” he continued, “what about our family’s are they okay? Are they one of those?” whimpered rob “how do I know dickhead? Anyway don’t think like that, think positive” Connor reassured him, “right, you see that bus toppled over on its side?” herbie said whilst pointing to the other side of the road where the bus was on its side impaled against the school gate, “one at a time, we slowly and quietly walk over to it, and then we can go around the back of the school and make our way back to my house?” “but what if there’s more of those things around the back?” asked Connor still staring at the large crowd, “I highly doubt it, anyway what have we got to lose?” Herbie smiled, “okay ill go first and I’ll give you the signal when to follow”, before another word could be said Herbie ran behind the parked, green land rover that was about 35 feet from the bus, the other three boys watched with their hearts in the throats, herbie poked his head around the front of the 4x4 and saw one of those things stood right on the other side slowly limping around towards him, Rob was recording this on his phone, “Dude!, are you for real, give me that!” Lewis barked at him as he took it from Robs clutches, “oh shit, he’s so screwed” said Connor from the safety of the bush, Lewis and Rob turned to look, Herbie had to act fast, he fell to the floor and shuffled himself underneath the land rover barely fitting underneath it, he turned his head to front wheel, where he could see two feet, one of them had been snapped and the ankle bone was poking through the sock, he continued to watch the feet pass by the 4x4 and no longer could see them. He shuffled himself closer to the edge of the land rover and he could see the man that just passed him had walked further down the main road. He looked around to see if it was clear, he couldn’t see anyone else so he quickly rolled out from underneath the bus, “oh thank god” Lewis said whilst sighing with relief, Herbie quickly walked over to the toppled over bus, he sat against it he looked back at the boys and gave them the signal to follow. Connor hurried after herbie, then Rob, they both made it across safely, it was just Lewis left, as Herbie gave him the signal Lewis hurried across to the land rover but as he approached it he tripped against the kerb, and fell on his side against the land rovers door which then set of the car alarm, “oh my god, that stupid dick!” Rob murmured looking back, Lewis still leaning against the car door rubbed his arm, as he stood he saw the whole car park was empty, he turned his head to the left where the bus was and saw all of those ‘things’ charging towards him like an angry mob, he murmured to himself “OH shit...”.
