but me.
We arrive at the pickup loop and happen to see one of Seth’s friends, of course the one I don’t like, Nick. I avoid the conversation and tell Seth I’m going to go walk around with Isabella, and ask him to text me when mom gets here, of course he’s so caught up in his conversation with Nick he answers me right away without even thinking. Noah and Caleb are just running around the loop so I don’t bother asking them if they want to come.
Bella and I take off to just walk around the parking lot, at least that’s what we were going to do until I saw that same teacher get escorted into the main building by two military men.
“Did you see that?!” I ask Bella.
“Yea, what about it?” She answers.
“You don’t find that weird at all how the teacher had to be taken inside by military men?”
“Well not really, I mean… Fayth, we aren’t going to follow them, are we?”
“You don’t have to, but I want to find out what’s up with that teacher.”
“Well I’m going back to Seth and them. Have fun”
“Thanks for your support, pal.”
As Isabella starts heading back, I peek into the door window and see the military men taking the teacher around the corner towards the main office. Of course I was scared but I wanted to know what was going on around here. I quietly opened the door and made sure it shut softly. After that I crept along the wall and slowly moved my head around the corner enough to see the military men and the sick teacher. There was standing the principle, the three MM (military men), including Lt. James and the teachers. I over hear part of they’re conversation.
“Well we know it’s not airborne because otherwise this whole school would be infected.” Said Lt. James.
“Why do you say that?” Asked Mrs. Cole.
“Well this teacher right here is infected.” Said Lt. James pointing to Mrs. Ferriday with his pistol in one hand.
“How can you tell?”
“Well for one, look at her face and completion. She looks out of it, has dark circles around her eyes, and is very, very pale.”
“How did she get infected?”
“She must have gotten bitten, by something… or someone.”
Ha! I knew it! I thought to myself, I knew I wasn’t overreacting to the whole situation! But what does he mean someone? Just then my phone went off and I forgot it was on full blast.
“What was that?” Mrs. Cole said.
“Men!” Lt. James yelled.
“YES SIR.” They both answered instantly.
“Sweep the area, now.”
“YES SIR.” They both answered again.
I saw one of men go down the hallway where the English wing was, and the other was coming down the hallway I was standing in. F**KING SETH. I instantly silenced my phone and sprinted out of the doors as fast as I could. I ran all the way to Seth in at least 5 seconds. (best 50 meter dash I’ve ever done)
“Yo Fayth moms he-” Seth stared before I interrupted him.
“YOU DICK, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA OF HOW MUCH TROUBLE YOU COULD HAVE GOT ME IN, HUH?!?!”
“Whoa dude, calm down.” He said. “You told me to text you remember?”
“YEA WELL MAYBE YOU SHOULD… Not… Do… SHUT UP.”
“Just get in the car so we can get home.”
“Fine…”
We all get in the car and sit in our normal arrangement. Mom driving, dad sitting passenger, Seth and I sitting in the middle two bucket seats, and Noah, Caleb, and Bella, all sitting in the back three seats. It was all quite for the first minute but then Noah and Caleb broke the silence with their obnoxious outbursts.
“Momma, we don’t have to go back to school until January 5th!” Noah said.
“Yea!” Caleb joined in. “We have some kind of flu going around again!”
“Flu, is this what the early release is for?” Mom asked.
Noah, Caleb, and Bella all explained to my mom and dad what was going on. While this was happening, I started to tell Seth what I heard in the hallway.
“I have to tell you something Seth.”
“What?”
“Well, when I was in the school I saw the MM talking to the principle and staff about the flu thing.”
“So..?” He said expecting my explanation to be really stupid or made up.
“And, they said that Mrs. Ferriday was ‘infected’.”
“What?”
“Yea, they said she was infected with whatever is going around and she was bitten by something…”
“Well she might have been bitten by a spider or something.” Trying to deny what I was about to say.
“But wait, they said something or someone…”
“Where are you going with this?”
“Well, something is one thing, but someone is another…”
“I know what you mean but what are you implying?”
“Alright, don’t call me stupid but, they referred to Mrs. Ferriday like she had no mind, like she was… dead, or even soulless, not unresponsive.”
“What you think this flu is a zombie infection or something?” Seth laughed “You play way to many horror games.”
“Alright then, riddle me this, Seth,” I said getting angry that he didn’t believe me. “Why did we have to have military officers or whatever come to our school?”
“Well maybe we-”
“Or why did teachers and students look sick when this occurred, coincidence? Or even why where they armed as if they knew something bad could have happened here?”
There was a short silence, then Seth finally saw from my point of view.
“Dude..."
“Exactly! Do you think I would lie about this?”
After I got seth to see what was going on here, I needed to get my parents to belive. When we droped Isabella off at her house and started driving home, I decided I would tell them too.
"Mom and Dad, I have to tell you something."
"What?" My they both answered.
"Today at school, well, you heard about the new flu right?"
"Yea, Noah and Caleb told us all about it."
"What did they tell you?"
"They told us that there's some new, more powerful type of swine flu going around and they sent all the kids home." My mom answered.
"Well, It's a bit more complicated. Now don't call me stupid, but. I really think there's going to be a huge flu epidemic that caused things like... Zombies, maybe?"
Both my parents started laughing thinking I was joking. When they didn't hear my laughter, or Seth's, they knew it was somehitn serious.
"Come on." My dad said. "Be serious."
"Dad, Fayth is telling the truth." Seth told them.
My mom still skeptical about the situaction asked in a very joky voice, "Why do you think this exactly?"
As I described to my parents exactlly what I said to Seth, they really didn't want to hear it. They both thought it was a prank Seth and I where pulling on them. Both of my parents were getting angry about this "joke" and told us to not bring it back up.
When we got home I opened the front door and walked into the house. Well, I thought to myself, at least there's no "infection" in here. As soon as I step into the kitchen, my dogs start barking up a storm. Then when they realize it's me they start to whine about wanting to go outside. But it wasn't their normal whine to go out. It's like they could sense something. Something that we can't.
I walked outside and open the door so they could go out too. But instead of their normal fun run, something was different. I know dogs smell the air and ground, but never like this. They all looked as if they were working together to track down a man who had just escaped prison. They did this for three to five minutes and so I just finally called them back inside.
What was that about? I wondered to myself. Could my dogs sense the flu, or is the military thing related to them at all? No, couldn't be. I decided to calm down for a while. I took a shower, climbed on my bed, and watched the news on T.V. Nope nothing strange yet. Well, I guess I am over reacting a little. Well anyways, I went to bed to try to start winter break right.
