Jail break

The teachers stand in front of the students with their arms spread wide. Riley groans loudly and angrily. Jessica runs forward. "Jessica!" A small thin blond girl yells happily. "I'm here guys and I brought help." Jessica says happily as relieved tears stream down her face. "Is that Riley?" someone asks. Riley grunts. "Take us to the one in charge I'd like to thank them personally and assure them they won't regret this." A balding middle aged man with broken glasses says. "We need to speak to the adults in charge." Mr. Stroker says. "Taking you 3 into account when we get back, that will make 3 adults." Riley says. 'Please don't make me do this just shut up' he screams in his mind. The music teacher scoffs. "Please tell me you're joking. I assume the other 5 have been left with no guidance and no supervision? no that simply will not stand" Mr. Stroker says condescending. "You will take us to-" The teacher is cut off "Mr. Stroker please." Jessica says, trying to put herself between Riley and the teacher and pleading. "I will do what the fuck I decide. You are not in charge and will not be in charge because clearly your a goddamn failure starving in here like rodents in a fucking cage and what the fuck was that when I came in huh? You gonna use your bodies to protect them? If I was a zombie I'd tear through you and then you would get up and tear into them and on it would go until everyone dies." Riley growls. "Young man, watch your mouth!" The teacher roars. "Jessica move." Riley says quietly. Inside his organs spin and whirl he feels sick. But Jason knows people and he has a job to do. "Riley I- '' Jessica begins but stops, the look in Riley's eye says enough. "Are you threatening me boy?" Mr. Stroker says a second before Riley's hunting knife enters his throat. A sickening popping gurgling sound escapes the man's mouth. Riley rips his knife free and repeatedly stabs the teacher all the way to the floor where Riley continues to vent his Rage and disgust at what he had and is doing. In his mind he screams why did I have to do this? Finally Riley drives the knife into the body's skull. Standing up he turns to the others. "Lets get this straight and over with right fucking now, this is not a debate our rules are final and if you come with us you join us you will obey them otherwise go die somewhere I don't have to fucking deal with you." Riley says wiping blood from his face but mostly just smearing it. "My job was to kill the horde and save you. I did that the rest is up to you, but I will warn you this one time and only this one time disrespect our rules and I will kill you." With that Riley wanders out of the classroom.

"How could he do that?" One of the students sob. "Because he had too." Jessica says standing up. "And I'll warn you myself disrespect The Book of Jason or the boys and I will also kill you." Her voice wavers as she says kill but her conviction doesn't she knows their way is the way now and owes them much. "W-what?" the blonde girl says wide eyed. "Join our clan and we make you strong or leave this place and figure it out either way make a decision and make it fast." Jessica says wholly throwing herself in with the boys of Crystal Lake. Outside Riley paces. "Jason we got them there are 15 to 16 survivors not sure if they will join." After a moment's pause the boy lifts the radio to his lips. "I killed Mr. Stroker." Riley rubs the back of his neck. "I trust your judgment Ri are you and the others coming back soon?" Jason asks. Riley sighs. "Yeah once Jessica is done talking to them and the guys are done looking for loot." Riley responds. "Keep me posted." Jason says. Riley groans and sits on the top of the stairs rubbing his leg. "I don't fucking know if I can keep this up." He whispers to himself. About 10 minutes later Jessica comes bouncing out of the classroom. "Why are you so chipper?" Riley asks, eyeing the girl. "Cause all of them want to join the 13 clan." Jessica says beaming. ``13 clan?" Riley asks with a raised eyebrow. "Yep thought of it myself kinda noticed the Friday the 13th theme you guys have so 13 clan followers of The Book of Jason not bad huh?" She asks happily. Riley nods and stands up. "Alright everybody sound in are you almost ready to leave?" Riley asks over the radio. "Been ready brow." Alex says. "Finishing up 20 seconds tops." Rat says. "I'm by the exit brother ready when you tell me." Tank says. "You gather them up and help Tank and Rat lead them home." Riley says watching the fearful gazes peering through the little window in the door. "What are you going to do? You're injured!" Jessica says loudly. "We all have our jobs to do." Riley says. "Mine is to keep finding loot and killing zombies regardless of my body." Riley says, patting her shoulder before limping down the stairs. Riley wanders out the back and heads down several streets only needing to kill 3 zombies before passing one of the bus barricades. Continuing along Riley finds a familiar gas station. Inside he finds a heavily mutilated pile of meat and bones with a name tag that reads Niles. "Got you too huh?" Riley says falling to his knees and curling in a ball mourning the death of his humanity. The tears don't stop for many hours. When Riley finally regains his composure he jumps over the counter and grabs a pack of cigarettes and lighter fluid that he puts in a Zippo he has had for many years. Under the counter he finds an old double barrel shotgun and a mostly empty box of shells. "Oh Niles you shouldn't have." Riley says laughing. Memories of the 20 year old sneaking him the odd smoke outside plague him a moment. "You know I always wanted to kill that man that took my life from me, Niles. We used to talk about him sometimes but now that I have actually killed another human being I don't know how I could ever do it again." Riley says smoking and jotting down the day's events into his log book. Once he is finished he starts filling his backpack with motor oil and chips or anything else he can fit in the bag. Looking around once he is outside Riley sees a bike's handlebars. "I think I'm going to build myself a motorcycle." Riley says to himself.
