"Figures..."
Mr.V let the two goodie two-shoe kids get a head-start before the massacre because of their good behavior. Mostly for more entertainment.
Mr.V thought it would have been fun to hunt down a couple of kids after this crowd was eliminated. After all, this area was already evacuated and he had to stay posted here.
The school was a very good strategic spot to start our operations. The Company sent me into that school 5 years ago just for this moment.
I work for the Company because I'm strong enough to do the dirty work nobody else wants to do. It may be dirty but the Company says it's necessary and what the Company says goes.
The order to eliminate all personnel on the campus was given to me this morning. Looks like they are moving in.
These kids were the last of them so might as well try something fun. Might as well have fun with it right?
High school students would never last.. The two kids I thought I would have a fun time with proved me wrong. The cowards jumped instead of taking it like a man.
Oh well...
The fog would come soon so Mr.V started to hurry up his work here. After this he had three hours to set up the fog tents the Company made for the school. Allowing no lethal vapors in the vicinity. He got reports that ever since the impact a fog has been spreading, killing everything within the vapors.
Not him. He'd have those tents up in no time. It's not like he's a hybrid. Damn bastards need to be wiped off this Earth. Only God should have that kind of capability.

Raymond started to feel branches break from his weight. After a hard thud, he opened his eyes.
Not dead.. A good start...
Raymond rubbed his tailbone, probably going to be bruised from that fall.
"Told you to trust me!" Raymond looked around and saw Sam sitting there with a half smirk. Sam was still obviously horrified by what that just happened. Raymond wondered why he wasn't so freaked out.
Probably shock.
Either way he was going to use these moments in the most rational way. Raymond didn't hear the motorcycle anymore and assumed that Mr.V finished whatever he was doing up there.
Sam was silent for a while.
"What should we do now?" Raymond said to break the silence. Sam was staring at some leaves. "Wait for the government to take that phycho down duh."
"I don't know man. There weren't any cars or anything on the way up here and then this crazy shit happens the moment we get to the end. I just don't think anyone is coming for us dude.."
"Talk about hope. You sound so defeated yet we are probably the only ones alive in our class right now!" Sam said, still staring at the leaves. His voice sounded like a mix of rage and sadness. Don't blame him either, all Raymond could think about was his family.
This shit can't really be happening right now. Everyone disappearing and a teacher gone phycho killer maniac??
...I think I might be going insane...
Raymond snapped out of his thoughts. All of his logical thoughts vanished.
After what happened up there, there is no logic anymore.Thinking like that won't make me last long. Insane or not, this is my reality right now.
I guess I'll have to survive this reality until I find a rational explanation to bring logic back.
Raymond peeked out of the huge bush they landed in. It was a miracle this bush was here. All Raymond could see from outside was the ocean. He looked up and barely saw the edge of the cliff. "Yo Sam, I'm positive he thinks we are dead."
Sam looked at him, his face blank. "No shit Sherlock. You do remember that it was my idea to jump right??"
"Alright genius, what did you plan on doing now?"
Sam paused. "Shit... I don't really know. I just acted on my gut to plan a way to not die."
"Yeah? Well guess what? My plan to survive has more than one step. You always have to think ahead. And it's really hard to think ahead when anything can virtually happen at this point. So why don't we start by finding a way back up. Once we are up top I say we loot the closest house we see. This insane shit happened and I haven't even heard one siren or adult at all. Sam, there is no government helping us. I don't know about you but I'm willing to do anything to survive. There are no laws anymore."
"How can there be no government? I know what happened up there was like something out of a horror story but seriously, do you really think that nobody will help us?"Sam said, his voice losing even more hope.
"Well there is one way to figure that out... Let's start climbing and see if there's a government up there helping us."
Sam stayed silent for a moment before responding. He let out a big sigh and said,"Fine whatever, let's do this then. And what do you plan on doing after we loot the house?"
"I'll tell you the next step if this step works."
"Alright then."
Sam and Raymond started climbing the branches slowly up the cliff.
By the time they got over the top, they could only see about ten feet in distance before looking at a wall of fog surrounding them.
Raymond didn't care. He still knew that if he ran straight ahead there would be a house to loot. That's the plan.
They sprinted through the fog and eventually they got to the front door. Thank god it was unlocked.
"I think we should find some food and water, for now and later because I'm starving."
Raymond was pretty hungry too. They didn't eat breakfast even though the school served it. School food was nasty.
Sam started to rifle through the cabinets and drawers. Most of them were empty. It looked like the people who lived here were leaving in a hurry. There's bound to be good things here though, the house was big. We were in a high class area, even though we weren't rich we went to the rich kid school. Probably one of the main reasons why me and Sam get along so well.
"Sam you find a bag and put as much good food into it as you can while I go and look for some supplies."
Sam was already eating a random bag of chips he found in a cabinet. "Supplies for what?" He said with crumbs falling from his lip.
"You'll see."
"Alright "
Raymond walked into the garage and saw small tool shed in the corner of the room and opened it. He took two shovels and a rake and looked around some more. On the wall he noticed a hunting certificate in a frame.
There's a gun somewhere in this house.
Raymond hoped they didn't take it or at least left one. Hunters do love their guns after all.
Mr.V can be as strong as he wants, his skin can't stop a bullet.
Raymond scanned the room for a safe or gun bag but didn't seem to find anything.
Raymond went back into the house and didn't see Sam in the kitchen.
"Sam?"
Silence followed.
Raymond raised his voice "Yo Sam!"
"Raymond get over here right now!" Sam screamed.
His voice echoed from upstairs. Raymond ran up the steps and found Sam in the first bedroom on the right side. There were two other rooms that weren't checked. One was on the left side of the wall and the other was next to the door on the right.
"What's up?" Raymond said. Sam was facing away from Raymond. He turned around with a hunting rifle in his hand.
I knew hunters loved their guns..
"Where did you find that?" Raymond said with curiosity. "Right here on this stand." Sam said, pointing at the desk. "Is there any ammo?" Raymond said walking over to the desk. "I didn't check." Sam said looking at the gun with interest.
Raymond opened the drawer in the desk and found it empty except for a pen and some broken pencils.
Who takes the ammo and leaves the gun?
Raymond knew that if any normal person had common sense they would grab the gun too. He looked around the room, scanning for ammo boxes. A hunting gun in a bedroom at hands reach from the bed.
Maybe this person was a paranoid type. If I were paranoid as shit where would I keep the ammo.
The gun was within hands reach from the bed so the ammo has to be the same case. Raymond walked over to the bed and looked at it. The nightstand next to the bed had no drawers.
If this were my room and I was paranoid where would I have the bullets??
Raymond walked to the head of the bed and threw the thick pillows off of it. "So we are trashing the house too!" Sam said with excitement.
Before Raymond even had time too tell him he found a box of bullets Sam grabbed the gun stand from the desk and threw it straight out of the window in the room.
The moment the glass broke Raymond and Sam heard a loud siren echo throughout the house. "What the fuck Sam you set off an alarm!" Raymond grabbed the box and saw a duffle bag in the closet. He grabbed it throw the gun, ammo box, and the tools he grabbed from the garage in it and slung it around his back.
"Sorry dude I didn't know." Sam said, holding one of his ears. "How the hell did you not know! This is some rich dudes home and you think they wouldn't have had an alarm?"
"I just got excited okay I thought we can do anything now." Sam said looking at the window. "Either way the cops will come over here now anyways."
"If there are any cops at all then yes but until then there is still a crazy maniac out there and you just mad a LOT of noise that he can easily hear." Raymond said, walking out the door. "Come on Sam we need to get out of this house."
"Alright, where do we go now then?"
"Back to the cliff." Raymond said.
