He looked at Jay this time with no disguise on his face, he looked as unemotional as before in his real life.

"Well, you don't tell me many things as well, such as where and who the other two people are. And something else, that I am not going to disclose. But you can think for yourself, I lived in an orphanage and was abused there. So do you think, I can be that innocent?" Noah said smirking a little and walked inside.

Although deep down he knew, the original was only two years in the orphanage. The zombies were immediately on him, but before he could do anything, Jay came up from behind him and stabbed the zombies with a makeshift spear. That was probably made from a broom. Looking at the spear that was precisely inserted in the brain of the zombie, Noah saw another one coming from his left, so he elbowed the zombie in the stomach, stole Jay's spear, and rammed it in its head.

'That's three done' Noah thought to himself. Jay was just in confusion how the spear ended up in Noah's hand, but just took it back. He looked at Noah with a more interested gaze, so he didn't see the other two zombies coming at them.

Noah rolled his eyes, "Get your head in the game! Do you want to end as zombie food?" And pulled Jay away from the two zombies, took a chair from the ground, and hit one of the zombies with it. Jay lost balance and almost fell to the ground, but seemed to catch himself at the last moment. Jay seemed to wake up, so he ran in front of Noah and took the last one down.

Out of breath, he turned to Noah who seemed to breathe almost normally.

"What the hell?!" He exclaimed but looked at Noah with a look of brilliance. Noah just felt uncomfortable, his body was aching all over, and he really felt that the original Noah was very weak. Then Jay went to all the zombies and put his hand directly inside the head. Noah was immediately disgusted and felt like he wanted to vomit, he had gloves in his bag, and Jay just had to ask for them.

"Fine, I can guess what the one secret is..."Jay said as he pulled a small crystal out. "It is this isn't it?" He said and walked in front of Noah, Noah looked at the crystal. Jay then took Noah's hand and put the crystal that was still full of the rotten smell and juice in his hand. He grimaced and looked at his hand, back at Jay, back in his hand. He couldn't give it back either, since in one hand is the spear and the other is full of rotten flesh and puss. He let the crystal fall immediately got his backpack off and opened it with one hand. As he crouched, he got the disinfectant out and put it on his hands. Rubbing it in, he still felt the need to wash his hands. Then he put on the gloves and picked up the crystal from the floor.

The crystal was now in his gloved hand, he cleaned it and even gave Jay the disinfectant, "It's disgusting, clean your hand." Jay just smiled and began to laugh, as he remembered all the steps Noah had taken right now.

He took the disinfectant, put his spear to the ground, and crouched right before Noah. Looking him deep into his eyes, Jay licked his lips and seemed to get closer to Noah's face. Noah just took his bag and stood up, Jay rolled his eyes in annoyance. He disinfected his hand and also stood up, he then watched as Noah walked to the corpses. Noah was leaning over the now dead body and felt the head's structure, maybe there was a way to locate the crystal without fishing in it too much. He turned the head to every side and found out that there seemed to be light blue veins running around the head. On one particular spot, all the blue veins seemed to connect, so he took his bag off and rummaged to find the pocket knife he found in the beginning. The knife in hand he inserted it into the spot where they are connecting et violá a crystal. Noah was so focused that he didn't realize Jay was watching, the whole time. Turning his head to the left their noses touched, surprised Noah fell back to put a bit of distance in between them.

Jay just stepped a bit closer and whispered in Noah's ear, "We are all alone right now... and I have to say ever since you kicked the zombie in the face I've been so hard."

His eyes widened in surprise, "What the hell!" Noah stood up, "What should I do with such information? Why are you telling me this? Get a grip!"

Jay just bit his lip, "You're even hot when you're angry." He said and touched the trousers in between his legs and tried to adjust them.

As he touched her, Noah could see the bulge in his pants, which was very uncomfortable. Noah wanted to cry inside and run away on the outside. He pursed his lips and he even looked like he was feeling, VERY uncomfortable.

"I was hoping from the very beginning, that we clean this room and then have some time for ourselves," Jay said and winked.

Noah looked him up and down, "Well, I was hoping that we just clean up a bit and I could ask you some questions. But it seems that your dick thinks for itself, I don't want to have any time to ourselves as you want time to ourselves. I can understand that in the Apocalypse you have urges, but I certainly don't want to do anything like that in a room full of five dead zombies."

Jay nodded and winked, "So it's the room that's the problem, no worry we clean up and then we can make due."

Noah shook his head very seriously, "It's not the room, it's you. You're creeping me out, we haven't known each other for more than a day and you already want to sleep with me. To that, I say no thank you, fap one or two out by yourself. I am waiting outside, you know since you found it hot that I kicked a zombie, I'm sure you can fap to one too. And here are five, you are a lucky guy," he said and ran out of there closing the door behind him.

Outside he finally felt like he could breathe, not to mention that he was really disturbed by it. Noah took deep breaths and took a look at the corpse he killed with a roundhouse kick. He bent down there wasn't really a lot of head to go on, most of the head was splattered over the ground. The crystal was nowhere to be found, Noah thought about it and maybe Jay had taken it. Well, he has to ask him about that, as soon as he is done with whatever. Then he can ask him, if he maybe knows the use of the crystals and where the two others are.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

It took an eternity for Noah to lose his mind, because of the grunts and groans from the zombies, who were in the other classrooms. There is also something, from the stairs they came from, the door Jay is in right now is the third one on the right side. The first and second ones on the right are marked green. On the left side, the first room was marked purple and the other two were yellow. In the hall, he was in right now, there aren't many things anymore. Just a few posters of after-school clubs and the plan for substitute teachers.

Jay walked outside, and he looked at Noah, "I was just joking, chill. While you went out first I gathered all the other crystals and threw the real dead corpses out the window."

Noah just nodded, "Good. By the way, did you already take the one in his head?"

"Yes, I did," he said and looked at the zombie right in front of the door he just come out of. Jay bent down, heaved the body up, and went back inside the room, only a few moments later he was outside next to Noah. He hung his right arm over Noah's shoulders. In his left hand, he had brought his spear with him, out of the room. Jay smiled as he pulled Noah to the door right in front of them, which was the third door on the left side. The yellow door was now in their sight and they could already hear scratching at the door.

"Let's finish this room and after that two green rooms. If we're done you can ask your questions, if I can answer them is another thing," Jay said and unlocked the next door, with his spear in an alert posture. Noah had the knife now in his pocket, he took it out and braced himself for a fight.

The door was unlocked, the scratching got louder and Jay opened the door. With one door open three zombies came charging at them, Jay stabbed the one closest to him, Noah kicked one to the ground, and the other, who was coming up right behind him, stabbed him directly in the face with his little knife. Pulling his knife out of the zombie's forehead, he saw Jay taking care of the third one. Three zombies were killed at once, they advanced into the classroom and saw a zombie eating another zombie's head. Or more precisely taking out the crystal in the other one's head and eating it. Besides the wreckage around the room with the overturned tables and chairs, there was another dead zombie on the floor, his head was also pulled open. As the eating zombie was done he realized he had company he stood up and Noah noticed immediately, that its moving speed was slightly faster than the other ones. Making a side note in his head that zombies can seem to evolve, he looked at Jay, and Jay nodded to him. Noah went more to the left and Jay moved to the right, they waited on who the zombie would go for. The zombie didn't let them wait long as he moved toward Noah. Jay gave Noah a look and Noah went a bit back until he was almost with his back to the wall. This made the zombie think that it had cornered its prey, so it got closer to him. As the zombie got closer, Jay also got closer to the zombie and as the zombie wanted to attack Noah, Jay was faster and pushed his spear into the zombie's head.

The zombie didn't fall, nor did it die. The zombie's head made a 180 and looked directly at Jay. Looking at Jay it stuck his hands out as if to reach out and grab him, but before it could, Noah pushed the spear in further. Pulled it out again and struck where most of the veins were. There it was the zombie finally collapsed in on itself, Jay gave a relieved sigh. Noah stood still, pulled the spear out, gave it to Noah, and couldn't wait to see what was in the zombie's head. With his knife in hand, he traced the veins and dug out the center of where the veins were coming from. As he dug the crystal out he realized it was the size of a coffee bean. He wanted to cut up the stomach too, but Noah felt disgusted and in danger if he were to do so.

"Don't you want to cut his stomach open, he ate one of the crystals. Remember?" Jay reminded him after he caught himself again.

Noah was reluctant, "I would want to, but it's disgusting and really dangerous. I can cut out the crystal in the head, but open the stomach of a zombie. No thanks. Do you know how much danger something like this is? Way too much and we have to think about whether the acid in the stomach can turn us into zombies too. Or have any other effect on us, the stomach is full of acid and now think about this. Through the rotting of the body as a whole, it is not only dangerous that we cut the head open, but the inner organs can and will exude a certain odor that can be highly toxic. The stomach is usually protected with a membrane on the inside, if that is rotting then the stomach fluid, the acid can also go to the other organs. These organs are then decomposing much faster and a decomposed liver is dangerous. If you want to, do it by yourself and in a room where we will never go in again."

Jay was surprised about the knowledge Noah possesses and he wondered where in the world he learned all that. He certainly never knew that his own liver could be so toxic and Noah seemed really informed of a decomposing body.

'Where did he learn all that?' This is all Jay thought at that moment, but Noah was already in the process of taking the crystals, taking bodies, and throwing them out the window. Jay felt left out, so he helped Noah get rid of the zombie bodies. Finishing this room they left the door open, went to the green doors, got rid of them and now they have emptied four classrooms. Two yellows and two green rooms, now both of them were scavenging through the bags on the floor to find food, drinks, and anything else that could be useful. Before they knew it, three hours were over and they had to go back.

Jay had two bags in his hand and Noah had three because in his opinion many things Jay left behind could be still useful.
