Well This Is A Twist

"And let me guess William, I'm going to be the one downstairs luring all the zombies while you go for a nice stroll to the door? How about you go downstairs and I find the door, let me do the easy work for once. Aren't you meant to be powerful enough to kill thousands of zombies, put that strength to good use for once and go piss then off."

"Fine fine fine. If you really want me to go downstairs then I'll go, but if I die you have to tell Annabel that its all your fault and trust me she will kill you."

At this Jack looks back at William with terror in his eyes, he remembered what Annabel was like when William was about to leave. He doesn't want to experience that again, never mind telling her that he killed her boyfriend... but then he also doesn't want to go downstairs and lure the zombies away from the next set of stairs. After thinking for a minute he decides that letting William handle the zombies is the safer option, and he will go find the door and whoever is on the roof.

He pushes William back towards the rope and wishes him luck, then goes and quietly opens the door to look down the hall. Lots of zombies as they guessed, but less than the 1st floor.

William heads back down the rope and into the classroom again, this time he needs to make lots of noise to get the attention of the zombies. The problem is how to do that without putting himself in a position that would possibly lead to his death. He looks round the class to see what he could use to make enough noise. However he couldn't find anything to make enough noise to attract all the zombies, and obviously running outside wasn't an option as that would be certain death even for him. However if he managed to make enough noise while inside the room then the zombies would amass at the door, which would keep them out.

He went over to the flipped table and looked at the legs, they were made out of metal, if he could grab one of them and start hitting the metal door that would make more than enough noise to annoy the zombies. He quickly finds something to act as a screw and unscrews one of the legs and grabs it, then he walks over to the door and opens it. Lots of zombies are just wandering around trying to find something/someone to eat, he slams the leg against the door creating a loud bang which the zombies immediately hear and turn around.

When the see him the immediately charge at him a various speeds, he shuts the door and starts slamming it every few moments as he hears the zombies on the other side also slam into the door...

Jack waited until he heard loud bangs from below then the sound of feet slamming into the floor and other bodies before moving towards the door and peeking out again, this time instead of zombies wandering about they were all slowly moving towards the sound William was making. It seems because they couldn't actually see what was making the sound they moved towards it slower, good information to have for later on.

Jack waited for a minute more before leaving the room, he crept slowly towards the stairs so that the zombies wouldn't hear him. Thankfully none of them noticed him and continued to try and find William, he made it to the stairs and started to go up them to the rooftop. As he neared the top of the steps he could hear something but thought nothing of it, however as he climbed the last step he saw something that stopped him in his tracks...

5 huge zombies were blocking his path to the rooftop door, they looked like your average highschool jocks except for their missing flesh from zombie bites of course. Thankfully they still hadn't noticed him yet because of how quiet he was, if William was here even he would have found the sight unsettling they look strong, fast and bulky, a few hits of an axe wouldn't be enough to take them down.

Jack started walking back down the steps but when he turned the corner her stopped again, this time it was normal zombies but they must have randomly walked over to the steps and now blocked his path. Now he couldn't go forward or back, each road lead to certain death all he could do for now is sit and wait and think of a plan. He needed to get upstairs and through the door but the jocks were blocking his way, he couldn't get back to the room because of the normal zombies blocking his path, and William was stick downstairs hitting the door, he had to find a way to take out the jocks without alerting the rest of the zombies so stealth was a must. All he had was a baseball bat he picked up yesterday, some spare nails and the hammer from their entrance plan, the rope he wanted to use for his original plan and some rocks that he picked up outside of William's house because he was bored. He had a plan but it was one that William would immediately shoot down because of how stupidly absurd it was, but hey he couldn't exactly stop him could he? He started off by hammering two nails into the wall at each side if one of the steps then tying the rope to them making sure it had no give before moving onto the next part of his plan, the baseball bat. He hammered the rest of the nails into it until they were through the other side, the plan took about 15 minutes because he couldn't hammer too heavily incase the zombies heard him.

After he was done he walked back up to the jocks and started waving at them, it took a few seconds for one to notice him but as soon as it did it charged at him closely followed by the other three. Jack turned around and ran back down the steps as fast as he could making sure to skip one of the steps, the first zombie however didn't skip the step and tripped on the rope slamming into the steps. The other 3 didn't stop running and trampled him to death but the 2nd fastest jock kicked the downed zombie's head and also tripped over and was also trampled to death. The last two managed not to fall this time and kept running after Jack who by now had reached the bottom of the steps alerting the normal zombies of his presence, they also started chasing him but because he was already running he managed to get past all of them without being bitten or attacked. Now with two jocks and half a dozen normal zombies chasing after him Jack ran through the halls until he came to another staircase, but this one went back down to the 1st floor not up to the roof so it was of no use to him, the zombies were only a few seconds behind him and he quickly opened one of the many doors and ran into the room before closing the door, a few moments later loud crashes could be heard and the door was suddenly bent out of shape from the pressure but thankfully held. Jack stopped to look at the door before starting off again through the classroom to a door at the back and went straight through it, the design of the classrooms and halls was a big U with three sets of stairs one at both ends of the U and one set in the middle. Jack started at one end of the U and is now at the other, however its possible to get from one side of the U to the other side by going through a classroom, supply closet and another classroom. This is exactly what Jack's plan was all about, trip up the jocks to slow them down and give him a chance before they came after him, run past the zombies and run along the halls until he came to the last classroom and quickly open the door and run inside then make his way back to the stairs this time with no zombies.

He walked through the supply closet and opened the door into the next classroom, however by this point his luck had run out. Waiting for him at the other side were seven zombies who noticed him straight away and threw themselves at him. He slammed the first one against the wall with his newly nailed baseball bat then backed up into the supply closet again, the supply closet was long but also quite thin so only two zombies could attacked at the one time. The first zombie also threw itself at Jack while the second just tried to claw him, he dodged back to avoid the second zombie while swinging his bat straight down on the first hitting it square in the back spraying everything in black blood. Jack tried to swing his bat at the second zombie but the nails on the bat had sunk into the first zombie's back and wouldn't budge, so he lifted the zombie as well slowing him down. The second zombie tried clawing him again while the third charged him, he blocked the second zombie using the first as a sheild then positioning himself so that the third couldn't hit him. He used his zombie infuses bat like a sledgehammer bringing it down on top of both the second and third zombie crushing them to the point that they couldn't move, while all this was going on the first was still alive but couldn't move due to the bat. The fourth and fifth zombies moved up and started to try kill Jack but by this point he was ready for them, he pulled one of the shelves down crushing them and killing all four zombies on the ground, the sixth and seventh zombies attack, one by leaping and the other by charging. Jack slammed one of the nearby metal buckets into the charging zombie and bashed it with his bat denting the bucket making it impossible to take off, he then headbutted the jumping zombie then also slamming it with his bat.

By this point him and the walls were covered completely by black blood and some zombie brains were on Jacks head.

"Ugh that's disgusting!! I was too caught up in the moment and now look at me! I look hideous, almost as bad as William hehe, I wonder how his 'dangerous job' is going? Guess I better hurry up and get to those damn stairs before its night time."

He walks iver the crushed zombie bodies and into the classroom which is filled with more bodies, some human some zombie. He made his way up the stairs and past the dead jocks till he got to the door. He knocked on the door twice and waited but nothing happened.

"Hey! Whoever's on the roof! Can you hear me? Me and my friend have come to help you, but unless you open this door we cant help you. Hello?!"

After Jack didn't get any response he started banging on the door but still nothing. So he starts smashing it down with the bat, after a minute he makes a hole big enough to climb through.

When he looks around on the roof he doesn't see anybody until he looks in one of the corners, just about in the shade is an unconscious person...
