(By the way, I won't be putting trigger warnings cuz I'm lazy. Just expect or don't expect. This book has a lot of mature stuff xd....)
------------------

"I'm dead." Shoyo said with his super duper serious look..

Everyone was silent.

Ennoshita twitched a smile "...Come again?"

"I'm dead."

"What??? I couldn't hear you...Please say it again??" Sugawara picked his ears.

"I'm dead."

"Sorry! I also couldn't hear it! Please say it again..." Yamaguchi awkwardly laughs.

Shoyo had a tick mark on his head...."I said I'm DEAD" He made sure to emphasize the "Dead" part.

"............" -Everyone.

"NO! THERES NO WAY YOUR DEAD!" Kageyama shouted in disbelief!

"I'd have to agree with king on this..." Tsukishima doesn't believe Shoyo is dead....I mean...He's walking and talking right now.

"I thought we're already done with the "King" thing??" Kageyama glared at Tsukishima.

Tsukishima just shrugs.

"I agree with Kageyama! There is no way you're dead!" Kinoshita exclaimed!

"But I am." Shoyo deadpanned.

"Hinata-kun. I don't like your joke, especially in these times." Takeda-sensei sighed..

"Hinata-kun...I think your not doing okay. Suddenly telling us your dead." Kita looks at Shoyo in concern.

Shoyo slightly glared at Kita "I'm doing okay thank you very much."

"Proof! We need proof!" Nishinoya shouted!

"Y'all want proof?? I'll show you proof!" Shoyo walked towards Coach Ukai's bag and started rummaging something inside.

Coach Ukai widened his eyes and ruffled his hair in frustration "Hey you brat! It took me time to organize the things inside!"

"Shut up old man I'm busy!"

"Fuckin'-" Coach Ukai gritted his teeth "I'M NOT OLD!"

"Finally found it!" Shoyo took out a knife, then he walked towards the front to present himself.

"Aughhh! Now my bag is in a mess!" Coach Ukai kneeled to his bag and started arranging the things inside while grumbling...

Takeda-sensei glances at Coach Ukai. Then he smirks. Hah! Sucks to be you! He thought.

"Everyone. May I please have your attention? Here, I present to you all. A knife, that I will be using to stab myself." Shoyo casually said while showing them the army knife.

"What the fuck boke?!" Kageyama exclaimed in fright.

"Hinata! Don't do that!" Sugawara paled.

"Now now. Please calm down and enjoy this free show" Shoyo smiled like the sun.

"I-I-I don't th-th-think I-I can w-w-watch th-this!!" Yachi covered her eyes then leaned to Kiyoko.

Kiyoko also covered her eyes.

"Shoyo Hinata! Are you crazy?!" Takeda-sensei stood up, getting ready to go to Shoyo and grab the knife from him.

But Coach Ukai stopped him by grabbing his leg. "Nope! Don't disturb the shrimp!"

"What the fuck Ukai?!" Takeda-sensei gritted his teeth. "Let go! This is suicide!"

"JUST WATCH!"

"HOW CAN I WATCH WHEN HE'S TRYING TO KILL HIMSELF?!"

Shoyo stabbed himself on the stomach, then he pulled the knife out as black blood poured out. Shoyo grunted in pain as he kneeled on the floor....He's dead...But he doesn't have pain resistance. THIS SUCKS! WHY?! TAT.....

Yamaguchi fainted. Sugawara fainted. Kinoshita also fainted.

Ennoshita quickly went to Shoyo's side to help him! Narita just waited something to happen like Shoyo promised.

Kageyama kept shouting "Boke Hinata Boke!!" Over and over again! He's worried.

"Fuckin' shrimp...." Tsukishima gritted his teeth in anger as he stared at Shoyo who was grunting in pain. Serves you right!

When Ennoshita was about to put pressure on the stab wound. The wound then disappeared, just like what happened to the gunshot wound.

'So it wasn't my imagination...' Ennoshita thought in surprise...

"Ahhh....Fuck...That hurts like fuckin' hell...." Shoyo sweatdropped as he sat up on the ground. He doesn't feel pain anymore, so that means his wound healed by itself.

"What happened?!" Takeda-sensei shouted when he saw the wound on Shoyo healed itself.

"Its my ability!~" Shoyo was smug. But he trembles when he couldn't forget the pain.....I have op abilities, but I don't get pain fucking resistance? HOW DO I GET PAIN FUCKING RESISTANCE???

Narita had stars in his eyes and clapped in amazement.

"Shoyo...! Are you okay now?!" Nishinoya teared up.

Shoyo sweatdrops...."I'm okay."

"Did it hurt?!"

"......Yeah...K-Kinda.."

"Don't do that again please!" Nishinoya attached himself on Shoyo.

"....Yes...I won't do it again....I don't plan to do it again! It hurts like shit!" Shoyo who was pale was even more pale if that was possible...

"Is that your only proof that you are dead?" Kita asked calmly.

"Well, No other people can have abilities like me! And didn't you see my blood??? Also I have another proof! And that is, I don't have a heartbeat."

Nishinoya placed his hand on Shoyo's chest. He felt it for awhile and he was in daze... "....You really don't have a heart beat..."

"....So you really are dead..." Kageyama muttered..

"You've got abilities after you died?" Aran asked curiously.

Shoyo nodded "Yeah! I'm so op too!" Not really op when you meet someone stronger than you.

"....Shoyo...What happened to you..?" Nishinoya asked..

"I also don't know. When I woke up in the Hospital, I was already like this." Shoyo slightly smiled.

"Your still our Shoyo right?"

Shoyo grinned "Of course I am!"

Nishinoya sighed in relief..

Coach Ukai released Takeda-sensei's leg. "See? He's okay."

Takeda-sensei glances at Coach Ukai then sighed as he sat down..."I don't know anymore..."

Coach Ukai cackled.

"This feels so surreal..." Aran muttered..

"Isn't it a good thing that he ain't dead? Oh wait, he's already dead....But y'all know what I mean!" -Coach Ukai.

"I have a question." Narita raised his hand with a pondering look towards Shoyo. Shoyo raised an eyebrow, waiting for Narita to ask.

"If you are a zombie....And have abilities....Then, is it hinting that zombies will also acquire abilities in the future? And their intelligence will rise?

Because, like in the novels, zombies are able to level up, and as they level up, they will grow stronger and their intelligence will rise. Not just zombies, but animals and plants as well." Narita finished making everyone silent.

"Zombies being able get stronger....Then, does that mean that humanity is doomed...?" Takeda-sensei was frightened to the core..

"It seems so, because, there doesn't seem to be news that humans can have abilities as well. And I don't see anyone having abilities except for Hinata." Narita calmly stated.

"But maybe we are just late bloomers. But that would be bad, because if our abilities appear later, the zombies are already stronger than us. So yeah, we are probably doomed unless theres a miracle happening."

Everyone was mouth agape.....Narita was speaking too fast that everyone isn't able to digest everything he said.

"Th-then....W-we'll all d-d-die..?" Yachi was scared...She doesn't want to die...Kiyoko comforted Yachi by patting her back. There is nothing they could do. As expected, humans will always be weak.

Kageyama stared blankly....So there was no way to save the Earth huh..? The Earth wanted to kill itself, so it sent a meteor towards them and it exploded causing it to look like fireworks, but the people didn't notice back then, the dust particles were falling down like snow, people misunderstanding it to be winter approaching.

Shoyo looks at everyone who was in their own thoughts....He lowered his eyelids and pondered...

What if....There will be other zombies like him? But, if those zombies happen to be bad people...They might plan on taking over the world. After all, humans like to be the strongest and be worshipped by people like they're God.

Tsukishima unconsciously clenched the dino key chain in his pocket. He has one solution, but he is not sure if it will succeed. But, its better than not giving it a shot.

"I have a suggestion." Tsukishima spoke.

Everyone who was downcast, looked at Tsukishima with light in their eyes.

"What is it??" Nishinoya brightened up.

"You think you have the power to stop this virus???" Kageyama scoffed. Tsukishima is just a normal high school student. Its not like he's the main character!

"Lets just hear it first!" Shoyo pushed Kageyama and grinned.

Takeda-sensei was also very eager to know. Coach Ukai hugs his bag close to him, if Shoyo tries to mess with his bag, he'll smack him.

"My older brother has this friend, and he's a young genius, but nobody noticed his achievements because someone stole the spotlight, causing him to be left in the shadows."

"And you're saying that he can stop the zombie virus..?" Ennoshita was kinda skeptical..

"I don't know." -Tsukishima.

"Seriously?! You don't know??? Then whats the point of you mentioning him then?!" Kageyama was irritated..

"He likes experimenting and inventing things. He even made this weird robot that has all kinds of weapons, it could transform into any vehicles, and can also transform into any certain person. But the government took it."

"I see..." Kita nodded thoughtfully.

"But...How do we even find him?? We don't even know if he's dead or not" Kiyoko finally spoke.

Tsukishima smirks "I assure you. He isn't dead. And he's probably living his life right now under his base that he made if ever a war would be breaking out."

"What's his location?" Coach Ukai asks.

"In Miyagi, we are neighbours."

"Damn....Well, lets firstly focus on getting back to our base safely!" -Coach Ukai.

"Yeah, we can find him once we have enough supplies for a very long journey, we also need a car." Kita crossed his arms and leaned to the wall.

Everyone agreed.

"Okay, I'm gonna do the night watch since I don't need sleep!" Shoyo casually said and stood up from Nishinoya's embrace. Nishinoya pouted a bit...

"You all can rest assured, I will protect you all" Shoyo grinned making everything bright.

Yachi sniffed and clasped her hands together. 'Oh thank you Hinata-kun for being our sunshine'

Kita looks at Shoyo "You don't need a companion? I will gladly accompany you if thats what you want."

"No thanks. You can sleep and save energy for tomorrow."

Kita simply nods and placed a sleeping bag on the floor.

Everyone then started to prepare to sleep. While Takeda-sensei and Ennoshita took care of the guys that are still passed out. (Y'all definitely forgot about them.)

Shoyo tucked Natsu in, he patted her stomach very pleased to see his only family sleeping peacefully. He gently pinched her cheek making her frown.

Everyone said goodnight to each other and finally slept, except for a certain orangette who was on guard.

He stares at the fire that kept them warm in the middle of their circle. Shoyo would add some more wood when the fire would almost extinguish.

His ears were heightened all the way to the max to check if he hears any abnormalities in their surroundings. But the only thing Shoyo could hear was the muffled moaning of zombies from the distance, the wind blowing in the air, and the fire that kept cackling.

He then hears a rustle from beside him, he looks and saw Sugawara slowly sitting up.

"Suga-san?" Shoyo whispers.

Sugawara looks at Shoyo in daze. He then brightens up and smiles. "Shoyo..."

Sugawara moves his eyes to Shoyo's stomach "Are you okay Shoyo??....Is you're wound..."

"Its fine, it already healed" Shoyo reassured.

Sugawara went to Shoyo and sat beside him. "Why are you not sleeping?" He asked.

Shoyo poked the wood on the fire with a stick "I don't need sleep. Remember what I said? I'm already dead. So I don't need to sleep or eat."

Sugawara was silent. "......."

"I can't believe it....."

"I know. Daichi and the rest were also surprised when they found out."

Sugawara stares at Shoyo "But....Are you still the Shoyo I know?"

Shoyo chuckles "Of course I am haha"

"Fuu....Thats good...I'm glad" Sugawara smiles fondly at him.

Shoyo turned his attention back at the fire. But Sugawara was still staring at Shoyo.

'His bright orange hair has darkened...His eyes are red...And his skin paled...But he still has the same bright smile that I love about. His side view, and the light of the fire against him....He looks so beautiful..' Sugawara blushed..

"Shoyo..." Sugawara called out in a whisper..

Shoyo tilted his head towards him. "Whats up?"

Sugawara leaned over to Shoyo, now their noses are touching each other. "I've confessed my love to you multiple times....But you turned a blind eye to it...And, I know what was going on between you and Daichi a long time ago. You just used Daichi for you're own sexual desires right?"

Shoyo looks at Sugawara expressionless.

"In fact, you did this to many of you're past lovers....

And...."

Sugawara leaned to Shoyo's neck and kissed it. "I know that you're quite pent up down there....So, why don't you use me hm? Like what you did to you're past lovers.."

Shoyo's eyes curved like a crescent moon as he smiles slyly at Sugawara.

"Really now...?" Shoyo slowly puts his arms around Sugawara's neck and started to caress it.

Sugawara will always take any chance to touch and be touched by Shoyo. And he took the chance right now. He doesn't care if Shoyo doesn't return his feelings. As long as he's with Shoyo, then Sugawara is satisfied.

Sugawara placed his itchy hands on Shoyo's waist, he rubbed it and went inside of his jacket to feel his skin.

'Cold..'

Shoyo leaned over to Sugawara's ear and licked it, the wet sound caused Sugawara to get excited...!

"Well, too bad that we can't right now. I'm on night duty"

Shoyo leaned away from Sugawara and smirked at how disappointed Sugawara looked...

"Oh...."

Shoyo silently laughed, then he smiles sweetly "You go back to sleep now. Once we get back to our base....Lets have some fun okay?"

Sugawara nodded obediently. He's afraid that if he goes against Shoyo's words, he wouldn't be able to have fun with him....So Sugawara went back to his sleeping bag after he gave Shoyo a heated french kiss.

"...Ngh~ hahh..." Shoyo muffled a moan.

Sugawara then reluctantly pulled away leaving a shiny string of saliva connected from their lips. He said goodnight and flopped down with sadness...

'....Shoyo tasted like a strawberry....' It was Sugawara's last thought after he finally went to dream land.

Shoyo went back to his job, guarding his group. Not after he glanced at a certain blondie who kept on fidgeting.

Tsukishima who stayed awake in order to talk to Shoyo pursed his lips....

'That damned Sugawara...!' Tsukishima just missed his chance of talking to Shoyo because of his hesitation....And he even had to endure the jealousy when they started flirting with each other...

Next time he won't hesitate...!

Shoyo silently chuckled and went back to his job.

As the moon started to rise, everyone already slept soundly. But their vigilance were always up.

When it reached midnight, the moon turned a bloody red color. Some zombies and animals started to change drastically.

The animals were howling while the zombies were groaning loudly. Then a massive herd of zombies started marching towards their place.

Shoyo felt cold all over his body...!

"GUYS! WAKE UP!! SOMETHINGS WRONG!"

Then the window's glass broke while one zombie went inside their resting place.

Everyone snapped their eyes open and began to take their weapons. They backed away from that one zombie who feels so different from other zombies...

"Could this....A level one zombie?" Narita muttered with sweat...
