(I had to write a bunch of basically self insert fanfics for school ok?? No my name isn't maverick)

Crash! Thud! Thunk! The sounds of metal hitting metallic flesh rang through Maverick's ears. She continuously bashed in the skull of the Infected beast, uncaring of who this used to be. Stupid stupid stupid, Maverick started running again, I need to get to the helicopter. Maverick had been fending for herself since she missed the opportunity to hide in the science block. Now the science block is in flames, the silver infected creeping up its sides, bloody screaming filling the atmosphere. 'Suppose it fits the mood. Never thought years of end-of-the-world movies, dystopian novels, and zombie video games would come to use. She smirked, laughing under her breath. She whacked a infected upside the head with her rusted metal pipe as she sprinted. She ran at full speed towards the sports hall, hoping the pilot, whoever it was, wouldn't leave in the next few minutes.

Boom! What. Was. That? She didn't dare turn around, knowing whatever happened it probably wasn't good. Heat blasted her back as she ran at breakneck speed. She flew the sports hall door, through the pool area, and up the stairs. She ran straight into the door, not even caring about the handle. They're gonna leave without me! The helicopter was almost in the air. A fluffy haired boy was laying across the nose of the helicopter as a girl attack what could be presumed as the pilot. Boom! Crash! Another explosion echoed in her ears"SCREECH!!" Someone noticed her from within the helicopter. "Maverick! You're alive! Quick, get in! He shouted. No way... Mike "Freckles" Heiren, my lil' bro. Well... Step-brother, whatever. "How...are...? How are you alive?" She exclaimed, her hands cupped to amplify her voice. She ran and jumped into the helicopter right as two more boys ran through the door. "Maverick?" A familiar voice asked. "Johnney! OMG you're ok!" Maverick happily replied, tackle-hugging him. Karma finally repaid me, both my lil' bro and best friend are alive!

While the others helped the other two in, Maverick glanced up at the pilot, about to thank him. She gasped in surprised, "Carson?" He turned, "hello Maverick". "Holy..." She breathed, "Well aren't I a lucky duck, everyone I give a sh-... Care about! Is still alive." She ended nervously. Carson was a close friend of her dad; "Freckles" step-dad. Carson, like her dad, did not appreciate her cursing, so she tried to stop herself. " I had forgotten you go here." Carson said simply. Carson turned to speak to the others, along with the two new kids.

She had seen them before, the bully and the new kid. They were both year 11's, one year older than Maverick. She twirled her hair nervously, she didn't know half of these people. I'm not really... The nicest person to strangers. What if they know my reputation? Maverick didn't noticed that someone was speaking to her. "Hey!" Someone tapped on her shoulder. "Huh? Sorry, I zoned out" Maverick answered meekly. "Anyway..." It was the fluffy-haired boy who was laying across the helicopter. "So I'm Mark! Who are you?" He held out his hand. "I'm Maverick, nice to meet you" Maverick greeted, accepting his handshake. Each one of them introduced themselves, Erika, Paul, Adam and Mark. Plus "Freckles", "Pudge", and Johnny, of course. Well, they seem nice enough. I think I can tolerate them for a little while. They asked her a few questions about how she survived. She explained how she didn't make it to the science block, how she was alone the whole time, bashing infected and learning their behavior. How she discovered how they are smarter in packs and how the grow smarter as the network expand. She told them about how she had a bit of inside insider information of how the nanotechnology worked due to her dad's profession. All in all, they seemed impressed. 'Suppose that's one way to make friends.
