*Kelvin POV*

11.00 WIB

Fx: Sreeett.... Cklaac.. Klekk..!!

The sound of the gun I was loading, because soon we're all going to my house...

"Hows it? Is everything ready?" ask the others.

All nodded in sign that they were ready to leave.

"Alright we will hurry to my house, then we will depart from my house around 1 pm, then proceed with the aim to save the remaining school" I said firmly.

"Ready captain!" say all at once and smile small.

Everyone started to get on the Kindergarten bus with their equipment, but my entry was stopped because of haqqul and andhika who called me.

"Kelvin..."

"Hm.. What's up.." answered me who then approached the two of them.

The butler of Haqqul came and approached us as well.

"What did you call me?" ask the butler respectfully and politely.

"Maybe we need something to open the road, so that the Kindergarten bus can run smoothly in the market or farmland, as far as I know there is a road there..... But... The area is an area that is quite a lot of people." andhika explained seriously.

While Haqqul whispered something to his butler, although it remained with his flat face.

The butler nodded slightly and left us who were busy talking.

"Hm... It could be that it will hinder our path to school, the risk is very large." I also said while thinking.

"But... We don't have enough time.. Only until tomorrow is our time." continued Andhika.

Sfx:Bruuuuummmm...!!! S...!!! Takk.. Blamm!!

Suddenly a jeep at his speed approached us and stopped right in front of us, not long after the butler came out of the jeep and approached haqqul.

"Thank you... Now you can go... Do not forget to point them to the place to be addressed, oh yes tell them all so as not to lose their sharpness." said Haqqul flatly.

"Alright sir, I'm sorry." replied the butler politely and respectfully then left by leaving his jeep.

"We're gonna wear this... Jeep P0-ATAV" he told us.

Andhika smiled cynically and went inside the jeep and started the engine.

"I'll ride this, haqqul! Just assign a zidan with me, he'll shoot the zombies with the machine gun on the roof of this jeep!" she said with a confident smile.

Haqqul just nodded, I got into the bus with haqqul and told zidan to immediately get on the jeep he was riding, zidan was very happy and out of the can and ride the jeep with andhika.

"Is it okay for the two of them, kelvin?" marsha asked somewhat worriedly.

"Just calm down, trust him.. I've known her since I was a child" said I to calm marsha's anxiety.

Marsha then smiled somewhat relievedly. Okta sat down with the marsha, while Vika sat down with Annisa. I sat in the front with my brother, while the haqqul stood by and watched with his eyes closed.

"Okee...! We..roasted!!" said kamiya with a smile.

Sfx:Bruuummm....!!! Brum!!!

The sound of the TK bus engine was turned on, I gave a sign to jeep andhika forward first, andhika also put forward her jeep and followed by kak kamiya bus behind her.

The gatekeepers opened the gate and we drove to my house.

*We are POV*

Sfx:Blackclub... Bruuummm...

Buses and jeeps drove quickly to Kelvin's house, seeing the others remain calm under these conditions, making me quite relieved.

"Sir kamiya, what's the matter?" asked Kelvin who was sitting next to me with an astonished look.

"I'm just a little relieved kelvin, your friends are experiencing a lot of sadness and difficulties, but seeing their current smile is enough to make me relieved. Right now we just focus on our goals" I replied with a smile.

"Yes, kamiya, that's right" kelvin said with a smile.

"Hey...!! Zidan, get ready to fire!!" yells excitedly andhika.

Zidan was happy to prepare for his position, seen some zombies that blocked the road.

"Hey the zombies!! Now is the time I feed you with this bullet!!!!" zidan said excitedly.

"KLAAKK...!!! TEKK...!! CKLEEK...!!! DOR DOR DOR DOR DOR!!!"

The sound of heavy machine gun fire used by zidan sounded very loud, like he really enjoyed his role of feeding zombies with bullets.

Fx:ARRRGH....!! JLEB..JJEEB!! DOR!! DORS..DOR!! RGHHAAGGH!!!

"Haha!! How's zidan?! You enjoying her? Better grip, 'cause I'm going to advance faster!" andhika.

"You're kidding andhika?! This is so fun! Ahaha!! Okaay!!! Dor dor!!!" zidan replied with great pleasure and enjoyed it.

Meanwhile the okta, marsha, vika and annisa see the two of them with flat faces, not forgetting the haqqul who keeps her flat face, despite being in her alert position.

"They're both like crazy people" said marsha with a flat face.

"They are like possessed by something, then it becomes so" timpal vika in a flat tone.

"They're crazy." said Annisa by patting her forehead not strong to see the behavior of zidan and andhika.

While the octa just nodded in agreement with Annisa's words.

Sfx: Brruuuuummmm....!!!!! Youmm...!!!!!

"Hey kelvin! Look at that there, on that bridge I think it's too much, while we're going under that bridge. It could be bad if they all fell down!" I said worried about seeing a bunch of zombies on the bridge.

I guess the zombies also heard the sound of our bus and jeep engines, while zidan and andhika were busy clearing the path ahead. Several zombies began to fall from the bridge.

"Give the above to me." said Haqqul who then opened the bus door and climbed onto the roof of the bus with his dual kriss V.

Kelvin shut the bus door and the women wondered.

"What's kelvin? Why did Haqqul have to go to the roof of the bus?" annisa said rather anxiously staring at kelvin.

"Certainly that?" ask okta.

"Yes that's right, so take it easy" my timps who were still driving the bus and smiling reassured them.

"Hm... All right then" said marsha and then the women talked back.

Sfx:Bruuumm!!!! Bruum!!! Cclack... Drekk!!! Ctakk!!! DOR DOR!!! JEBE!! A TRAKK!!! AAGGRRRHHH!!!! AAGGHH!!!!

"HEY!!! ZIDAN!! YOU TAKE CARE OF IT BELOW AND HAQQUL WILL TAKE CARE OF THE ONE ABOVE!!" yelled kelvin to zidan and greeted thumbs up and confident smile of his best friend.

"Well shall I begin." said haqqul in his flat tone.

Haqqul directs his dual V kriss towards the zombies that are on top of the bridge, then takes aim until...

Sfx:XOT..DORS..DORS..DORS..DOR!!!!!!!!!

Out the sound of bullets that shot towards the zombies and made them collapse. Buses and jeeps continue to go fast, sounding very loud bullets coming out of the machine gun used by zidan and dual kriss V used haqqul.

Until it makes some zombies in front there collapse instantly.

Sfx:XOT..DORS..DOR!!! JLEB..JLEBB..JEREB..!! AAGGRR!!!!! GRRFGHHH!!!

"Awas, prepare!! We're going under the bridge!!" zidan shouted in warning.

All seemed to show faces of tension and worry.

Sfx:Dot..Dor..Dor..Dor..!! Sretti... So...!!!! Tap tap tap!!

Calmly haqqul shot with an accurate shot without missing, then quickly sheathed both of his weapons. Haqqul replaced his grip with both katanas sheathed on his hips, with the horses ready to attack, haqqul jumping up the bridge with one high jump.

"Sword Style: Ice Slayer!!"

At the same time as the high jump, the haqqul technique slashed the zombie horde that was on the bridge with a cross slash, instantly the bodies of the zombies were cut into two pieces and froze, until it does not fall when the bus and jeep pass under the bridge.

The no-nonsense haqqul ran at a fast pace, then jumped off the bridge and landed right on the roof of the Kindergarten bus. Haqqul casually splashed the blood on both katana side by side, then sheathed the two together.

Not forgetting his usual flat face, Haqqul then re-entered the Kindergarten bus through the door opened by Kelvin.

Sfx:Sree... Tap..tap.tap! Blam it!

The sound of haqqul's steps and his closed door made all silence.

"Why are you quiet..?" tanya Haqqul who looked into the eyes of all the friends who were looking towards her.

"I'm fine." she continued with a tone and a flat face.

Not long after, Kelvin patted the shoulders of the haqqul and breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that the haqqul was fine. The women also looked relieved and did not feel anxious anymore.

"Thank God... Then.."

"Are you really okay?" asked Annisa who was staring at haqqul with a somewhat anxious look.

Haqqul approached Annisa and stroked her head gently. Haqqul made a small smile at Annisa, then leaned back in the passenger seat to watch the movement of the zombies on the side of the road.

Vika, marsha and okta just smiled and understood the two of them, then kelvin returned to his seat beside me.

"How was it, kelvin?" ask me while you stay focused on driving.

"Walk well without any problems, brother kamiya"

"Hm.. Good then, like we'll soon arrive.." continued me who briefly saw zidan give a sign will arrive.

"Well, in a minute..."

*Vika POV*

5 Minutes later...

"Hey Annisa, it's like we'll be there soon" I said to Annisa.

"Hum.. Like the hell it is, I think we'll be here soon"

"Yes vika, we will soon arrive, not far ahead of the black-fenced house is his house kelvin" said marsha.

"You know Kelvin's house, marsha?" ask octa innocently while stroking the sari head that was sleeping sitting on his lap.

"Yes, I know his house, I used to, zidan, and kelvin were childhood friends. So I used to go to her house to play" explained Marsha.

Vika, annisa, and okta also nodded in understanding.

Sfx:Bruuummm!!! Cait!! Bruuum!! Kreeett!!! Nah!!

The Jeep and Kindergarten bus stopped, then zidan quickly got out of the jeep and opened the gate of the kelvin house, without further ado jeeps and Kindergarten buses go directly into the yard of the house kelvin which is wide enough to park three to four cars at once.

Meanwhile, Zidan quickly closed the gate and locked it until the zombies could not enter.

We all went out one by one then, was invited we went inside by kelvin.

"Friends, let's go in, we'll take a break here" said kelvin invite his friends.

"Well, let's go in" replied the somewhat exhausted zidan after feeding the zombies with bullets.

We all went in and took a break at the kelvin house to wait for the right time to continue the journey.

10 Minutes later....

I was standing on the balcony propping up my chin with my hands, seeing that everything was gone...

It is no longer beauty... Because right now all I see is chaos everywhere...

Sometimes I think it's not so real...

Sometimes I think it's hard for us...

"Sister vika..."

Say a little boy named Sari who made me realize from a momentary daydream...

"Yes sari... What's up, honey?"

I crouched down and stared at the sari with a smile on my eyes.

Seen in the eyes of the sari there is anxiety and questions that continue to revolve in his mind like a nightmare.

"Sister vika... I'm scared..."

Sari then shed her tears and immediately hugged me tightly, I was stunned then I replied with a warm hug and a smile.

"I'm scared... Are we gonna survive this nightmare, brother?"

Like his sari was very frightened by what would happen in the time to come.

I stroked her head gently and calmed her heart.

"Cari... Do you believe in other brothers and sisters?"

"Believe brother..."

"Then there is no need to fear, we will face these difficulties together, until later we reach the expectations we dream of"

"We pray enough to ask for God's protection and still do our best"

Connect me by giving a smile to Sari. Sari then wiped her tears and returned a cheerful smile.

"Well brother Vika, sari will continue to pray and do her best. Thank you, sister vika"

Sari showed a plain smile and went back to see Marsha.

I stood up and did not feel the tears dripping slightly over my cheeks...

I wiped my tears and smiled slightly towards the sky...

I'm sure that hope exists... Even if it's that small...
