Level up Zombie

Running down the aisle, Skittle was following Zain's lead, as he knocked down zombie after Zombie. One leapt towards them and with a swing of his shear, he had whacked it right across the face and crashed into the shelves, causing a load of the food to drop to the ground.

He continued forward, kicking another in the face, and then grabbing one by its head and slamming it down on the floor.

'Damn it all of these messages!' Zain thought.

Level 3

[248/2626 exp]

'At least I have a lot of exp this time, but I don't even have time to check the benefits of levelling up with all of this going on.'

At the same time, as quickly as Zain was defeating a zombie, there seemed to be more and more that were gathering at either end of the aisle. If it were wider, even more zombies would have come toward them.

"Just how many of the Zombies are there, there weren't even this many people living in the area, right? They had to have come from the university." Zain commented, and turned his head to look at his small friend.

Skittle was still shaking a bit, the red liquid was still on him, and more were still trying to grab him by the second. A hand came bursting through from one side of the shelves, and went to reach Skittle but before it could touch him, there was a large object swung down hitting the arm. It didn't it off but broke it in the process.

"Skittle!" Zain shouted. "I'm going to need you to wake up. I can't fight and think at the same time, at least not to the best of my ability, so if you can't fight right now, then I'm going to at least need you to think!"

There was more in Skittle's head other than the fact that all of the zombies were after him, it was the fact that Zain had been bit. If that was the case then it meant he would be turning into a zombie. Honestly, if that wasn't the case then Skittle would have told Zain to leave him so that he could be the bate.

However, seeing Zain try so hard, there was a reason for it, and Skittle could only think it was because it was his best friend's final breath of life.

p "Let's go to where the others were, the entrance was smaller there, and if we use your body we can push through and maybe get in a vehicle of some sort." Skittle said.

Unsure if it was a good plan or not, Zain sprung into action as he ran forward and slammed the side of his arm into one of the shelving sections. It started to fall slightly but due to the number of Zombies on the other side that were holding it up, it was at a tilted angle.

The next second and Zain, had grabbed Skittle.

"Hold on." Zain ran forward placing his feet on the shelves, and when he got to the end he leapt over as far as he could to the other side reaching the top of the aisle. He nearly overshot it and fell into another aisle but after regaining his balance he was okay.

'That cody kid made it look easy.' Zain thought.

Running at a height made it hard for the Zombies to reach them, but they were aggressively pushing each other into the shelves making them wobble slightly. They were ready to topple over at any second. Luckily in his arms, Skittle was light, allowing Zain to sprint through as fast as he could.

One of the stack of shelves had fallen from the Zombies trying to reach them too much, but with a leap from his powerful legs, he cleared the distance with ease. Due to the situation, Skittle wasn't even noticing the amazing human feats that Zain was going through.

When they finally got to the end of the aisle, Zain leapt down with Skittle and they were back to the open area just where the freezer section was, only there was a huge problem. Breaking through several emergency doors, fire exits and windows, the Zombies were heavily packed in the hallway.

"We can't force ourselves through this. If we did with Skittle, then without a doubt he would be bitten by one of them.' Clenching his teeth, Zain had to come up with a plan quickly. Although he wasn't tired, his energy was getting lower, as he continued to fight and his body functionality was getting worse.

'There's also a good chance with this many zombies coming here, that there could be another stage 2 Zombie.'

Looking around for options, Zain saw something, it wasn't really an option but it was the only thing he could think of.

"Follow me!" Zain shouted as he headed over to a large door. The fresh air could be felt as they approached the room. Skittle didn't hesitate to follow his friend and when they were finally inside, Zain slammed the door shut behind them.

Skittle was shivering and his breath was frosty, as he looekd around at all the eaten bodies inside. The two of them were now in the freezer section. Bangign from outside continued on the metal door.

Lifting the handle, Zain was able to lock it, but how long it would hold with so many outside it was impossible to tell.

"Zain, I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry for getting you into this mess!" Skittle said wiping his tears.

"Stop it," Zain said. "You weren't the one that caused all of this, to change the world so don't go blaming yourself for anything!"

Sniffling, he felt the words did reassure Skittle a little.

"But Zain you arm, because of me, you're now going to turn into one of them."

Hearing this, Zain started to pull down the wrappings that were around his neck and showed the bite mark that remained.

"Skittle I was bitten a long time ago, look at me. I'm completely fine, this bite won't do anything to me as well. This is why I have a proposal for you, and it's up to you what you want to do.

"I can bite you, and there's a chance you could become something like me, or... they get through this door and we try to escape. But I'll be honest it's unlikely you will make it out of here without being bit."

The option was now in Skittle's hands.
