The sun cast it's heat upon the city. The sky was slightly clouded looking ash grim.
And the only sound here is the all-present growls of the walkers around.
I kinda like that name, i feel like i know where i heard it.
It was 3:12pm now, and thanks to ciri, i have at least a location to begin with.
The reason i got back here instead of exiting through the main door was simple, i don't know who is keeping eye on this place, and i don't want to risk them seeing me walking out alone and unscathed from a building that is supposed to be full of walkers.
That would put the girls to danger, but here i am, looking at a roof of a house in the back of the complex 3 meters away from the edge of the roof, and lower by at least 4 meters.
I'm sure no sane person would risk taking the jump, well i'm not a one exactly, and i'm a lot stronger, i fucking love how strong this body is. Even without chakra.
I would've prefered going in the dark but i'm uncertain if those mad creatures are any different at night.
For now i need to loot. Anything, everything.
Taking a step forward to nothingness i let my body drop, a meter{3,3 ft} down parallel to the outer wall of the building then i pulled my heel back, just enough for it to touch the edge of a window, enough for a blink that i gain something to support my jump from a lower point and i did.
My legs coild before pushing aginst the wall in that friction of halt and once again i fall exactly at the ledge of the opposite house.
Easy, too easy.
I fought a grin as i jumped down to the roof taking my blade and walked toward the door leading inside, it was open.
I figured it won't be a waste to start by looting this 2 story building.
The inside was dim, the stairs leading to the second floor were covered in dust and empty, there was some noise coming from further below.
Heading down i was soon on the hall of the second floor. Two rooms on one side of it and one on the other side, a bathroom.
I tapped the porcelaine beside me as i heard a low growl coming from one of the open rooms, ten seconds later a staggering figure came into view.
a walker, an old woman.
I really hate this, it's always uncomfortable when you have to put down those who weren't harmful as humans, old people and kids.
Walkers in their shapes that all they care is tearing you apart to feed.
I throw the kunai watching it tearing through it eye as she dropped with a loud thud.
The noise below stirred stronger with growls.
While waiting for the guests to come up i tapped the closed room beside me twice, nothing.
Opening it with some cautious i looked at the messed room, empty. With a bed, closet and a sofa.
It seem the people who lived here already packed and left.
Two male walkers came into view from the stairs rushing with the same hungry expression.
I did a simple thrust burying the point of blade through the first's head before slashing aside cutting through it skull and into the second's neck.
Both dropped and then silence.
Those three are all the free roaming ones in the house.
What followed was a 15 minute of looting, which brought the few clean clothes and bed sets, some middleschool books, study items and a golf bat to the storage seal.
Outside the house were few wandering zombies which i took care and assessed the surroundings.
The building ciri and katnis are at was in front of me, and the basketball court is supposed to be two blocks to the east of it.
I took a slow stride glancing around, this place look like a small town, few scattered houses here and there on both sides of the road.
While a dozen or so walkers were scattered along the road as far as the eye can see.
Some cars were burned and others were overturned on the road with few corpses on the ground.
__3d pov__
Keeping to the shadows sasuke run fast through alleys between the houses making no sound and evading every obstacle skillfuly with the grace of a cat.
After killing 7 walkers that were wandering on the alleys he finally reached the said basketball court.
One walker stood unmoving under the basket and on the other side of it was the pharmacy.
Only, it was far from quiet...
A loud noise sounded from the entrance which had three walkers struggling to get inside attracting the few nearby walkers.
Sasuke crouched and squinted his eyes looking closely, a shadow moved on the window before sasuke watched a walker thrown out of the window with bashed head.
Someone in there is fighting and sasuke decided to back them up.
as for wether they are hostile or just good survivors, it didn't matter. He can deal with that after securing the place.
Taking few shirukens in one hand he sprinted forward like a speeding car eyes locked on the 5 walkers crowding the entrance calculated the trajectories in split second and lunched them with a speed nearing that of a bullet.
*Whistle* four walkers dropped immediately while the remaining two nearby got attracted to his low whistle and staggered to catch him.
Doing a quick work of them sasuke reached the entrance in time to see a bearded burly man keeping a walker in place by a chair with one hand while hammering its head with the bat on his second hand.
"Fuckin' filth!" The man spat and turned to face the newcomer with evidant surprise as he recalled the scene.
"Bloody hell boy HA HA HA! you really are somethin' taking those muddy rots that way like a fuckin' ninja"
the man laughed uncaring as he waved the blood and prain pieces from his bat.
watching the young man step over the corpses walking toward him with calm expression as if this was his everyday routine.
"You good old man?"
"Better than ever!! But we should leave, the noise i made should've attracted them and more would be comin' soon " taking his own backpack the man tossed whatever in the shelves in front of him into it before taking a tenyol bag from the counter filling it and passing it to sasuke.
"Here! For fever and pain killers, let's get out of here" the bearded man tossed the bag and turned to leave, while sasuke grab it and knelt calmly collecting his shurikens as he always did.
it doesn't matter if he have tons of them, he never left weapons to waste.
"Hurry boy i will cover for ya!"
"Hey old man, go for that alley it's clear i'll follow after few minutes" he pointed to the way he came from and without wasting a second sasuke turned to walk deeper into the farmacy heading toward the storage room.
He knows every farmacy have one, mostly.
And he was right, breaking the door out of its hinges with a strong kick he walked inside and without further ado he waved three set of handsigns before pressing his palms on both shelves holding different boxes on his sides.
With a low puff both shelves disappeared onto the tattoo seal on his wrists. And after repeating the action two times the storage got emptied.
Done With that he walked out yet he never expected the man to be still there swinging his bat at three walkers nearing their location.
"Finally! Leave those two to me and get the one to the left" shouting the man kicked one to his right ready to take the other just to watch the boy who was behind him a second ago appear like a freaking ghost without sound and swings his blade in wide arc two times taking the walkers down.
He took a second glance at the young man, amazed before finishing the one on the ground.
"Damn~ boy i swear you nearly gave me heart attack jumping in front like this"
"You don't seem to be that weak old man, now what?" Still unsure of the other party sasuke decided to observe him longer.
Till now the man seemed to be good, otherwise he wouldn't risk stalling three walkers even when he seems tired.
"I won't hold ya for that, honestly ninja boy? I don't know. My car" panting the man pointed with his bloody bat at a nearby van.
"Fuel ran out and i saw this farmacy, figured it would be good to take some meds while on it but didn't expect a rotten one to be layin' behind the counter. Shit happened and i made noises while fighting.
Thank you for showin' up and saving my ass"
the man, for all his wild energy spoke with evident gratefulness on his sharp eyes looking around tensely.
Billy was fucking thankfull to meet a strong man out here, even if he didn't seem like one at all.
He forget how much went since he met another human, one that he didn't beat to death for trying to steal his shit that is.
"You good for another run? There's a fast food shop around here i think, maybe we can find something?" Sasuke suggested looking around trying to spot the shop ciri told him about.
"Only if ya promise not to screw me with those things" the man smirked pointing at his kunai, tightening his bag then followed along
