21 Fight & Home

After leaving the school, the three took the shortcut back home. After a few minutes of carefully walking through the small neighborhood and making sure they didn't make too much sound, the boys made it back to where the convenience store was.

"GROWWLLLL"

Hearing the loud growls, the boys quickly hid behind a garbage container, hoping that the zombies didn't see them.

Luckily, no one approached them. Thinking it was safe, the three looked to the side of the container, trying to find out why the zombies growled so aggressively.

Peeking to the right, they saw five adults fighting with the mutated zombies in the middle of the road.

Spectating the fight, the boys were shocked. With short brown hair and a black jacket on with blue track pants, one adult shot a fireball at one zombie they were fighting. The fireball didn't kill it, but the three could see that the zombie was full of burn marks, as well as having an entire arm melted.

It was quite a gruesome sight to see, but what happened next shocked them. With long black wavy hair, a woman wearing a grey hoodie and tights disappeared. She then reappeared in front of a zombie and stabbed it in the head, killing it.

'Teleportation? No, it could also be super speed. Either way, wow'

It surprised Johnathan how strong they were. The woman obviously had a power that involved speed or something like that. But she could pierce the head of a zombie so easily. The man with the fire ability was also something. He could injure the zombie and slow it down so quickly without being exhausted.

Johnathan knew Ivan could do that as well, but the mana it would take him to damage it that much would be a considerable amount.

The fight didn't stop there, as a bulky man with short black hair, lept forward. Wearing a tight shirt that showed off his muscles and baggy grey sweats, the man pulled back his fists and smashed it into the rib cage of one of the bulkier zombies.

The result was surprising. The zombie got blasted backward with a hole in its stomach, taking another two zombies that were behind it to the floor with it.

"HAHA, weak ass zombies"

The bulky laughed aloud and spoke with his deep voice.

"Shut up Dom. You'll attract even more zombies with that annoying ass voice of yours"

The three teens hiding behind a garbage container looked at who spoke. With long blonde hair, a woman, who looked average at best, spoke. She was wearing a white turtleneck and a leather jacket, as well as blue ripped jeans.

The Bulky man who the average-looking girl called Dom retorted with his own comeback. "Shut up already and quit nagging. You're looking more and more like an old lady every day. Nagging will only speed the process up. HAHAHA"

The blonde kissed her teeth in anger as her fingernails gained a metallic color and increased in length. 'Fucking muscles, head, ' she thought, looking at the bulky idiot who clearly didn't care about the zombies.

A man on the taller side stepped between them. He looked like he was of African descent. He had short black hair full of tight curls and was wearing a grey rain jacket, along with black track pants.

"Stop fighting and focus on the zombies in front of us. The others should be here with the car in a minute or two"

The blonde and the bulky man turned away from each other, but not before cursing one another. Sighing, the African American man shook his head. 'Why can't they just stop arguing' he thought as he turned to the zombies in front of him.

Crouching down, the man touched the floor. Then, not a second later, rocks started floating in the air.

Straightening himself, the African American man aimed his hand forward.

The floating rocks listened to the man and shot at the zombies in front of him. The rocks he sent flying forward reached their targets, piercing the zombies' heads.

After killing four zombies, the man smiled. 'Awesome' he thought. With this power, not only did he know he would survive, but he might even become the strongest in the world.

Johnathan, watching the scene, stared in awe. The man had killed many zombies with just a flick of his wrist.

He kept watching and turned his head to the last of the five. The last person was a woman. She had short brown hair reaching her shoulders and was wearing a pink zip-up sweater and tights. Johnathan focused on her, wondering what ability she would have.

Since five of the six all showed abilities, it wasn't farfetched to say she had one as well. 'What could it be' he thought, waiting for her to show her ability.

But before he could see her fight, Johnathan heard a car coming from behind the zombies.

*CRASH*

Crashing into the zombies and sending them flying, the driver opened the passenger door. "Get in" the driver yelled.

The three watched as they made their way to the car. Five of the six had already sat in. Johnathan watched as the last person, the one he recognized as the one who didn't show her powers, turned towards them.

"You guys can come out now"

The woman yelled to them, shocking the three.

Her companions looked towards where they hid, but they quickly lost interest and shut the door. The woman with short brown hair got into the car shortly after, leaving the boys hiding behind the garbage container with their mouths open in shock.

The car drove away, and with the car going the back the same way it came, dragged the zombies chasing it with them.

Johnathan and the other two got up from their positions and stretched. They were in an uncomfortable position for a good five minutes, so the stretch felt like heaven. After a quick stretch, the three continued their way back to the bike shop as quietly and carefully as they could.

Hiding from a couple of zombies along the way, the boys finally made it back to the shop. Quietly entering, they walked up the stairs and opened the door to their apartment.

After a long day, they could finally relax and not have to worry about dying.
