Level up Zombie

Run, run, and run. That was what all the others did. They listened to Zain's words, they knew the danger and the threat that was in front of them not too long ago, and they all knew that they wouldn't have been able to survive and that it was the only way.

Running at the back of the group, as Pink directed the others where to go, each time one of them turned their backs, Kun would speak up.

"Keep running, if you even try to turn around, I'm going to hit you myself." Kun said, which scared the life out of all of them, even Pink. She had never heard such anger in Kun's voice.

He was always the lighthearted and calm one, who seemed impossible to anger, yet here he was.

"If any of us die, after what he just did for us, then his sacrifice would have been in vain, don't any of you understand that?" Kun shouted.

Because of those words, the group continued to run as Kun asked. On top of that, they were noticing it was getting dark. As they ran, Pink was thinking of the whole group. She couldn't believe it.

They had left with her mother, had left with Brandon and Dave, yet they weren't coming back with them. Worst of all, not even Zain was with them now. Someone who Pink had decided to stick with.

When they reached the museum, what were they meant to tell the leader, what were they going to tell Ryan?

Unfortunately, due to everything that had happened to them, the sun set had caught up with them and it was soon to get dark. Because of this, the group had decided that it was best if they were to head to one of the apartments indoors.

It was easy for them to find one, and easy for Pink and Kun to clear it out. They dragged the dead bodies out of the apartment, placing them in the room next door. Allowing for both Cody and Kelly to enter.

When the two of them entered, they fell onto the sofa that was in the rooms. The tension that they felt, having gone from fight to flight mode, left them incredibly exhausted.

They weren't like Kun and Pink. Who both, even now, were trying to find items to cover up the windows and drawing the curtains to block out any sign of them being inside.

After they were done, they decided to sit down with the others, and all of them weren't asleep, but were just resting, staring down at the ground. All of them were thinking about what had happened back there.

"What were those things?" Kelly eventually asked, breaking the silence.

"I have no idea. We never ran into them before." Kun replied. "But it was clear that they weren't human. They were just like us."

Hearing this, usually it would come as a big surprise, but Cody, and somewhat Kelly, had already figured it out. Kelly knew about Zain and since these two were travelling with him and were almost superhuman, she had a guess.

"Do you think…" Pink didn't say another word as Kun looked at her, knowing what she wanted to ask.

"Let's just get some sleep." Kun said, as he stood up and walked to one of the bedrooms. "None of us can think properly in this situation."

Although everyone agreed, it was hard for both Kelly and Cody to get any sleep at all. They felt safe but the danger that was around them gave them quite a restless night, until a certain point. They were so exhausted that they couldn't help but fall asleep, and when they woke up it was mid-day already.

The curtains had been drawn, and beaming sunlight was shining on their two faces, as both of them had slept on the sofa.

"Get off me, your dribbling on me!" Cody complained, as he practically pushed Kelly off the sofa who was laying on top of him. She fell to the floor, waking up, her hair sticking up and her eyelids half asleep.

"I'm happy to see that you guys got some good rest in the end." Kun said. "While you were sleeping, I wrote down some instructions for you."

The piece of paper was handed over to Cody, since he seemed to be the more awake one and surprisingly the more responsible one, even though he was younger. When looking at the list, it was instructions on how to get to the museum.

Then there were also instructions to the hospital and the medicine that was needed as well.

"Why are you giving us this?" Cody asked. "It's almost as if you're leaving us?"

"That's because we are." Kun replied. "Me and Pink, the two of us, can't go back to the museum. We were never planning to stay there in the first place, but we need to pass on the message of what happened. The two of you will be well looked after, that Ryan guy, he seemed like a good leader."

Knowing what the two were, that they were zombies, Cody understood why they couldn't go back and stay at a human settlement, at least not for too long, but he was still worried about them, they had saved him and Kelly.

"What are you two going to do then?" Cody asked.

Kun looked at Pink for a few seconds.

"I spoke with Pink yesterday after you two fell asleep. Honestly, everything in my head is telling me there was no way Zain could have survived what had occured. It doesn't make any sense.

"But, somehow he knew that everyone was in trouble, and he came rushing straight towards us. In a way that doesn't make any sense either, so there's a chance that Zain is still alive. I know he told us not to look for him, but it's the only thing we can do."

Cody understood, because if he was in the same situation as them, then he probably would have done the same. Which is why he stood up and held out his hand.

"Remember each other. We should remember each other for the future." Cody said.

Kun smiled, even though Cody knew what they were, he wasn't afraid to shake his hand. Taking the hand shake, the two said each other's names as they were ready to leave the door.

"Wait!" Kelly shouted. "I think there is something that you should know, that everyone should know before you go looking for Zain… it's about his past."
