Zombie High

Chapter 30 - New Upload

Out of nowhere the students were sprayed down with a powerful hose that knocked them to the ground. They were rushed by men in hazmat suits who aggressively injected with needles. Brand tried to fight, but whatever they were injected with instantly took over and he dropped to the ground, numb. He felt as if he wore a ton, unable to lift his arms. The men in the hazmat suits started to strip them from their clothes and carry them away. Brand could no longer fight what was in his blood and all went black.

1 Year Later

 

Harrison High was now simply a grass field, the school burned seconds after the students were extracted. They were branded the Zombie High Four, local celebrities overnight. The only surviving four were contacted endlessly for movies, books and interviews. All of their families and the family of the fallen students filed lawsuits against the lab and won great sums.

Mo was first to move away with her family and was now home schooled. Kyle went off to college but eventually ended up starring in a movie based on their experience called ‘Zombie High’. He still worked in the industry, mostly modeling. Nova used some of her winnings to start a national anti-bullying campaign and eventually got to attend the State of the Union.

Brand also decided on home schooling, mainly because he freaked out at the sight of a locker and because his web show sky rocketed post the horrific event. His mom retired early and they moved back home. Brand was happy, producing his show along with his boyfriend Kendrick again.

A package arrived to his house and Brand opened it. “The hazmat team finally sent my backpack.”

Inside he found the video camera he had taken from the lost and found area and connected it to his laptop. On the camera was two files, one was the video he recorded and he figured the other video belonged to the original owner. Brand hit the play on the true owner’s file.

“Hi, I’m Amanda and I’m in charge of making a video year book for the Harrison High blog.” A blonde girl wearing a cheerleading uniform said. “I wanted an HD camera but Principal Dweeb was being cheap and got me this crappy one. I’ll work with what I have and do my best to show the world how awesome it is to be a student at Harrison High.”

 

Amanda toured the school talking to random students. She even talked to some familiar faces.

 

“This is Mo and Gia. They’re the only set of twins in our school.”

 

Mo and Gia made silly faces as Amanda turned the camera on them.

 

Her tour continued and she bumped into two jocks. “I introduce the handsome Hector and Kyle.”

 

“This year we’re going to be national champions,” Hector boasted. “I love my team, no homo.”

 

Kyle bit his bottom lip. “Hey ladies, never forget this sexy face.”

 

Amanda eventually ended up in the cafeteria where she found Nova. “This is piglet.”

 

Nova got up and covered the camera with her hand. “You’re so immature, Amanda.”

 

Amanda laughed as she headed away and spotted a teacher and student carrying dark bags.

 

“Ms. Sissa, what’s in the bags,” Amanda asked.

 

“Frogs,” Ms. Sissa answered. “Now out of the way, they need to be put on ice.”

 

Amanda turned the camera on John. “Carrying a bag of your brother’s, toad face?”

 

“I don’t want to be in your dumb video,” John said.

 

“Oh don’t worry; I’m using your clip from the talent show anyways, out of my way pop star.”

 

Amanda walked off as she turned the camera on her face. “Alright, I have class. Peace out.”

 

Besides Amanda immaturity, most of the video was enjoyable. Brand was originally planning on uploading the video he recorded of himself, but he decided this video instead would make the perfect upload. Other high school students around the world deserved to see no matter how miserable high school already was, a high school full of zombies was much worse.
