Hope

"My name is Iris Summer." Hmm, she is smart. She didn't give any information other than what we asked. I guess asking her straight forward would be the best idea as I can observe the changes in her face to see if she lies or not but first I should ask her some other questions to get more info.

I then asked her "Why are you here? You don't look athletic and you did not die while staying in such an open place. And depending upon the answer I might leave you alive." 

Her body shook as she heard my threat. She then said "I was lucky, the zombies were stupid so they didn't follow me. I survived till now by eating food out of the supermarket.

I then smiled coldly and said while taking my pistol and reloading "Though the first part was a lie. You told the truth. I will give you one more chance. Tell me the truth."

This time she said in a calm tone "Fine. I didn't want to tell others but I guess I have no other choice. I am trying to find the undead king. He is the one responsible for all this. This is not a virus. This is a declaration of war." 

I didn't talk for a few minutes. I then said "You said this was a declaration of war. This declaration is not to the government nor the UN. So to whom?"

She then said in a surprised tone "You believed me this easily."

"Of course, I tried to find the cure for this but I couldn't. It is as if there is a specific genetic code for this. Such things are not seen in a virus. It is shown more in other species." I said in a calm tone.

The students couldn't react to this as fast as me. They could only get out of the shock now. They kept quiet as they heard our conversation.

"You didn't answer my question." I said. She looked a bit embarrassed and said "This is a declaration of war to us. The supernatural hunters." 

"So why did they leave you alive…. Oh Shit!

Scene change

An authoritative voice spoke in the dark. "So is everything ready?". A kneeling figure then said"Yes, my lord. Everything went as planned. The leader is outside. We can freely attack."

"Good work, take a couple of thousand soldiers with you my knight. Leave now, that guy might return. Or he may not catch her again." Said the voice in the dark.

"We will leave right now". Said the kneeling figure as he walked out the dimly lit room. "This time we will annihilate all of them". Said the voice in the dark. 

Scene change 

"You 50, Go in formation and click the button when you get inside. Rest of you after hearing the signal, kill them. Try to leave no survivors." Said a figure as he was standing in front of thousands of undeads.

The undeads were motionless but their eyes started glowing. After a few seconds the glow was gone as they started limping towards the mountain.

They limped to the mountain as they reached the school. The knight opened the gate as 50 undeads limped forward and walked to different pillars. After getting into a formation they all clicked the buttons at the same time.

Boom! The sounds of bombs were heard as the undeads started to limp forward. They saw a few students and teachers. Some had only bruises while others had serious injuries.

The undeads attacked the defenseless students and teachers as they were trapped under the debris. The undeads bit down the limbs of the students and teachers. They soon attacked the entire school.

A few members of the team attacked the undead but it was of no use as only a few were dead as most of the team members were seriously injured and couldn't aim properly. The team members were slowly overpowered by the huge numbers of undeads.

Some of the students and teachers tried to escape the place they thought was safe. They all had a false sense of security. They all arrogantly thought nothing would happen to them. Their vigilance was reduced. Some of them started to regret that they cursed Axel and the team members behind their backs. They all knew it was because of them they survived but because of their pride, they couldn't say it out loud.

Some of the smart ones hid among the debris but most of them were killed by the undeads.

After 10 minutes the entire school was destroyed and the unwanted visitors left.

Scene change

"Follow me all of you. We are going back to school." I said. The rest were confused but soon Lucas realized. Ms Summers was just a bait. They wanted to attack the school. They wanted Mr Adair to follow Ms Summers so that they could attack the school without much difficulty. It looks like she didn't know that she was being used as bait.

We quickly went to the school but we were too late. The entire school was destroyed. We entered the school and started looking for survivors.

Scene change

"Your mission was successful, my knight. You did a great job. They were the only group that survived. The rest were killed by us.i wonder if some of them survived. We could have some fun with them." The voice said in a bloodthirsty tone. 

"Thank you, my lord. But this wouldn't be successful without your amazing plan. Because of you we only had a 63 casualties." The knight said.

"Let's see what he would do now. This is just the beginning." The voice said.

Scene change

The debris had falled everywhere. It is unlikely to have survivors but I shouldn't give up hope. If there is no hope, we may not survive tomorrow.

A/N Sorry for the multiple scene changes. I wanted to introduce some new characters and add the new lore. The topic of this book is magical realism so expect the mc to learn spells.
