Jack frantically looked around for a weapon until his eyes landed on a large wrench beneath the kitchen sink. He grabbed it and slowly walked over to the door.
*Thud*
The zombies continued to hit the door, Jack watched as the door started to splinter as more and more zombies joined the fray.
*BANG*
Suddenly a clawed hand smashed straight through the door, sending splinters flying across the room. The hand wildly tried to grab at nothing, scaring the shit out of Jack.
Jack just sprang over and started bashing the arm at the elbow with the large wrench, after a few bone-breaking hits the arm went limp.
But as fast as lighting the arm was pulled back out the new hole in the door, Jack sprung back and look looked through the hole.
He was greeted by an angry zombie pressing its face up against the hole, "GRAAAAOR!" The zombie roared angrily at Jack.
"Must've been his arm."
Then another arm burst through the door, and another. Jack didn't have time to take a breath before the door was suddenly smashed open, splinters flying everywhere.
Jack raised an arm to protect his eyes from the small projectiles and brought the wrench up, ready to hit something.
Jack quickly lowered his arm and saw three zombies shamble through his doorway, once they saw Jack though they immediately let out a screech and sprinted straight at him.
Jack jumped backwards and ditched the paper weight in his hand straight into the face of the first zombie which blinded it for a short second.
But a second was all Jack needed.
In jacks narrow hallway there was only room for one person to walk at once, so Jack sprung forward and swung his wrench straight at the first zombies head. With a loud crack the wrench rebounded off the zombies skull.
The zombie shot out a claw that Jack barely dodged by turning to the side, then Jack once again brought the wrench smashing against the zombies skull, which smashed the zombies head in like an egg.
But as the first zombie fell to the floor there was another one clamouring over it, this one was limping and had a broken arm. Jack seeing the opportunity launched a kick at the zombie, which caused it to fall backwards and knock over the zombie behind it.
Using the small reprieve Jack turned around and grabbed one of the wooden chairs behind him, then he raised the chair up and brought it fast down onto the second zombies body. He could do this because the hallway was quite tall.
The chair cracked and two of the legs snapped off, the zombie didn't fair much better either with several of its bones getting snapped.
Jack took another step forward and once again brought the chair down, but on the zombies head this time. The zombies skull caved in as the chair crushed it.
"GRAAAAAA"
The third zombie finally got back up and screeched at Jack furiously, Jack responded by hurling the chair at the zombie, sending it flying off its feet.
Jack didn't waste any time and ran over to the downed zombie, and repeatedly stomped on its head. It took a good six stomps until the zombie finally died, splattering blood everywhere.
Jack took a deep breath, but a notice suddenly went off in his mind.

Jack was shocked into silence, but he quickly regained his senses. Jack couldn't afford to become distracted in his current environment.
"Add two points to strength and one to stamina."
Jack felt himself become stronger as a strange new energy circled around his body.
But Jack didn't have any more time to waste, first he looked down at the zombie corpses and saw something which confirmed his suspicions.
Next to one of the zombies was a steel baseball bat, near another was a pair of metal fore-arm guards, or gauntlets.
"As I thought, with the rpg elements like status points, there are mob drops. This God has a strange sense of humour."
He slipped on the gauntlets and grabbed the baseball bat, then he removed his constricting school shirt and put on a jacket with a hoodie, then he changed out i his leather school shoes and put on some runners. All the while staying on guard for more enemies.
Once he had finished he slipped on his back pack and slowly walked out of his dorm room and into the hallway, not daring to make a sound.
First Jack saw a few zombies standing around the hallway, with about five zombies standing in between him and the stair case that led to the lower floors.
"Nope, no way, can't go that way. Can't go the other way either." Jack pondered to himself as he slowly inched his way back into his dorm room.
Once he was back inside his dorm room he started thinking about what he should do, until he saw a strange black book he didn't see before next to one of the zombie corpses.
Jack reached down and picked the book up, as soon as his hands touched it though, a message appeared inside his mind.
Skill book: Inner Demon
Rank: Unique
Consumption: 60mp
This is a unique skill awarded by the god to the first person to kill a monster singlehandedly. This skill causes the user to undergo a transformation into a monster with increased strength, agility and stamina. Degree of transformation depends on master of skill. Length of time transformed depends on degree of mastery.
Activate skills by saying name of skill.
As Jack read the description of the skill he new that it would definitely come in handy, so he quickly learnt it.
The book suddenly turned into particles of light that entered jacks body, Jack wasn't expecting this so he took a step back in surprise, which caused him to bump into the table.
Which caused a glass to fall off the table.
Jack watched the glass fall in horror, then it collided against the floor and caused a loud ringing sound to reverberate through the boys dorm.
"GRAAAAAAAOOOOR!"
Every zombie in the previously deathly quiet boys dorm roared and sprinted to the source of the sound.
Sadly the walls of the dorm were thin, so sound traveled quite far in the dorm.
Jack steeled his gaze and gripped his bat until his knuckles turned white, sweat appearing on his brow.
With a loud thud a zombie collided with the side of jacks ruined doorway, then it scrambled back up and leaped straight for Jack, with a terrifying amount of its brethren in its wake.

Just telling all of you that I'll take a short break from Spartan.
I feel that my writing quality is dropping, and it was already low in the first place.
So I'll be re-kindling my writing fezaze with this story.
