Hold up, readers! Before we go into the action stuff, just in case you didn't read the first book of the series "Under the water",you can read it, but if you just refuse to read it, here is a brief understanding of the setting of this series. We are currently in the world of Andle, a country that was located in the middle of the Indian ocean. This country used to be locked away from the rest of the world by an unpleasant dictatorship, like North Korea. But after last year’s agreements, contracts, and protests, the dictatorship had been brought down and a beautiful and fresh new era had begun. Now, this country was in contact with the rest of the world, allowing migrations and other intercountry stuff with its closest alliance being India, as expected being the closest country to Andle. Anyways, let's carry on with the story.

More and more creatures bashed through the wall of the art block. They slowly approached the group with evilness hiding in the blankness of their eyes. Jimmy froze in the fear of possible death. Steven looked around his surroundings. “Where can we run, where can we hide,?” as Steven constantly thought of a way to not turn into human sushi. His friends were nearly frozen still, slowly backing up from the creatures. Thud! Oliver’s back hit the English block wall behind their back. They reached the end, they have nowhere else to back up.

"Look, a door!" Shouts Liam, who was pointing towards the door of the science block which was fortunately a few meters away from them. Charlotte and Liam started sprinting towards the door. Following him were Oliver and Charlotte. Jimmy was frozen still though, he looked scared out of his pants.

“Take the flabba jabba and run!” Elijah shouted to Steven while kicking to push back the creatures but then tripped after losing balance on kicking the enemy.They are surprisingly light,Elijah thought. Noah slowly backed off towards the door with Xander by slowly slicing away the creatures. But to his amazement, the creatures placed their heads back onto them just soon after they were sliced in half. Without hesitation, Steven grabbed Jimmy and ran towards the door as per commanded by Elijah.

“Hurry!” Liam shouted, before shutting the door tight. Elijah sighed in relief. Jimmy looked scared and unsure, as he slowly sat on the floor and touched the ground. Steven peeked out the window; tens of creatures were hitting and banging the door that they came through.

“Move away,” Charlotte spoke in a quiet manner before she pulled down the blind. Oliver assisted Charlotte by closing down the rest of the blinds, just to stay hidden from the creatures temporarily.

Suddenly, they heard footsteps approaching from upstairs. The building shook a little, and the lights were turned on. Liam grabbed a bucket beside him and the metallic ruler while Elijah flung off one of his broken sandals and grabbed it tightly like a gun in front of him. The footsteps got louder and louder. They first thought that there was only one, but as the steps got directly above them, they realized that there were two. Steven fiddled his fingers around a box and managed to grab a craft knife.

A shadow appeared on the wall by the stairs. They backed off to the back door that leads to a courtyard, just in case it is one of those creatures. Jimmy was still sitting on the floor, mentally dead, but Noah pulled him aside by the backdoor with the rest of them. Thud. Thud. Thud.

"AhHhHhHHhHhhH" Jimmy screamed.90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqT26T7SSV
“Back away! I can do many dangerous things with my sandals!” Elijah warns the creature as he blindly whips his sandals at the creature.
"Ah, Ouch Ah! STOP STOP, It’s just me" Shouted Luxury in panic. Grhh. The creature's sound got louder outside. They seemed to be attracted to noises.
"Shhh!" Ethan whispered. Ethan, also known as E-man by his friends, had ginger-like hair that was quite long for a boy. He was standing next to Luxury, each holding a pair of craft knives and some instant food.
“I thought you were sick?” Bob asked Ethan, who was supposed to be at home today.
“Well, I was, but the zombies wrecked my home first so I fled to find you guys possibly. Thank god you guys are alive. By the way, here.” Ethan tossed a “Nerf” single-round pistol along with five bullets to Steven. Steven gave the craft knife to Bob while being relatively confused.

"According to what we experienced and saw, these "zombies" can't be killed, that’s why they’re not just any creatures but are zombies, but they are surprisingly light." Luxury analyzed.
"That explains why I fell on top of them when I kicked them just now." Elijah agreed. Luxury continued after a short pause.
"So we need weapons that deal no damage but are strong enough to push them back, just like E-Man's Nerf gun." As Luxury finished her explanation, Steven no longer looked confused. They drafted out a plan with Xander and Luxury's help in accordance with the help and safety guide; in a matter of an apocalypse, food, and other important needs should first be secured, and the best place to set up a defense location was a supermarket/store. However, who else would be hogging those places other than those glubby green creatures.
"What about the Warehouse? It has both food and defense supplies." Xander suggested.

They spread out across the science block in the hope of finding useful items, like food and weapons. Steven walked across to the room labeled “JS3L” and kicked open the locked door. Inside was filled with plants and posters that featured “photosynthesis” and other biological stuff. There should be nothing useful here.Steven thought before he noticed a couple of “Pea” plants in small colored pots by the window. These might be useful for food later on.He grabbed the three with the most pods hanging out and returned to the meeting spot after getting one more orange-covered craft knife.

“That's all you got? I got these metallic rulers.” Xander exclaimed as he saw Steven holding the three small pots and he started to roast the poor Steven.
“I can’t find anything else good, these might be useful long-term for food, you never know,” Steven answered. One by one, everyone arrived at the meeting point by the stairs. Bob found some duct tape and we wrapped it around our arms to not get bitten, just like in zombie films.
“Tape fixes everything,” Bob commented, and pretends to wink at the camera, while handing out the tape to everyone. They armed themselves with rulers and crafted knives as weapons and duct tape with cardboard for armor. Somehow Elijah managed to find a "shopping cart" in a class; must be for some science experiment. He also found an extremely powerful weapon. “GUYS GUY, I FOUND METAL SLIPPERS '' he screamed excitedly. Everyone took a cautious step back. They knew what Elijah was truly capable of with a slipper, imagine what he would unleash if he had a metal one. Although it is weird how he can do that…

“Yeah boi” as Elijah smirked. They placed valuables in the back of the cart and Ethan jumped to the front with his Nerf pistol. Jimmy looked sad and unconfident at the corner, he fiddled and flicked a blade around before sliding it back into his pocket. Steven approached him in a careful way, he tried to open his mouth to speak, but nothing came out; the expression on Jimmy's was too dense and unpleasant, it was worse when he was rick rolled by Steven and Steven thought that was a hellish expression. He patted him on the shoulder and looked at him in a careful, cheerful, and pleasing look. Jimmy tilted his head up and their eyes met. Jimmy nodded and forced a smile. Seeing that the zombies are close to bringing the door down, Jimmy knew it was now or, well…

"Let's get out of here," Jimmy said. They all took one last breath before they got into an escape position.

They blasted off through the back door. Liam and Oliver started slicing the zombies in the way with the metal rulers, followed by Noah, with his lightsaber which seemed to be surprisingly effective against these zombies. They kept coming despite getting pushed back. Not only that, more and more are arriving from corners to disrupt the peace. It would be moments before their resources would be surrounded with those wrinkly green hands if they don’t do something soon.

Elijah scribbled across the cart and found his mighty slipper. With a hand pushing the cart through the horde, the other grabbing at the metal slipper. He looked at the bright shining slipper and cracked a smile. He flinged the slipper at the horde, dealing a hellish amount of damage. However, if you apply the fourth law of the now dead Newton with the air flow and the structure of the slipper followed by how many subs they have on Elijah’s channel, which is by far -1, the slipper flew back like a boomerang. Elijah’s jaws smashed onto the ground as he caught the legendary weapon. “Yes!” as Elijah smirked. They are running now instead of just slowly pushing through. Jimmy was now slightly more confident, using the craft knife, he was slicing zombies at the back who were trying to catch up to them. Oliver was going to the front now to let the front rest a bit. He was slicing zombies without even thinking, he was slicing zombies like there was no tomorrow. He even turned like a bade-blade and slaughtered those zombies. As he stopped turning and caught his breath, he was wide-eyed. “Oh … wow … I never knew killing was this fun, maybe I could try hunting”, but the rest of the group responded with a “NOOOOOOO.”

In spite of their futile efforts, things are not going well for them, unfortunately. The further they got, the bigger the horde. They were at the school gate now, and the horde was more than 5 times bigger than it was in the beginning. Steven and Ethan, both using Nerf pistols, are about to run out of bullets. Charlotte, Luxury, Oliver, Noah, Bob, and Xander had gotten quite tired from all the swing, swashing and bad-blading to keep those creatures away. They carried on for another meter until they were completely surrounded. Elijah tried ramping over them with the cart, but it was no use; the crowd was more dense than Steven’s great great grandma.

"Look!" Bob spoke as he pointed to a relatively huge green leaf on the ground. There were absolutely no trees or plants around, let alone one that produces such a large-sized leaf. With Noah's help pushing the zombies slightly back, he managed to grab the leaf. After taking a few looks at it and thinking that the leaf was nothing but a piece of hot garbage, Bob passed the leaf over to Steven.
90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6wlEabv74
It glowed and glowed abnormally. He turned it around and around but other than the glowing nothing seemed special, so he just fling it into the cart. The leaf floated left and right cheerfully, before landing smoothly on the 3 pea plants that Steven placed in the cart. Mysterious and fantasy sounds filled around the plant. Small cyan and green particles danced around.

"What is going on?" Luxury commented. Noah and Jimmy were trying to push back the horde, so they had no idea what they were talking about, as they continued to fight. But the others had stopped fighting. Instead, they were staring blindly at the glow that seemed to glow larger and brighter every second.

In a blink of an eye, the pea plants had grown huge eyes. They are confused now, very confused. “Oi Lads, a little help here please?!?!?” Noah got annoyed at them for not helping, but as he turned to see them, he was shocked himself too.What in the world? Plants don’t have eyes!Steven stared at the plants in disbelief, as more features such as a large round mouth started appearing. The plants wiggled side to side, before starting to attack the horde by shooting out peas from their mouth. Surprisingly, every single shot of the pea seemed to be very effective against them. In just a single minute, the zombies were pushed back as far as the length of an old tree.

"What did I just witness?" Noah asked rhetorically in shock.
"Yeah, is this all a dream, is my father finally back?" Elijah further questioned as he pinched his cheeks, before letting out the most terrifying scream. But Xander said no to cool them down.
“What if we don’t even exist?” Bob commented with his double thumbs up.
“My lunch just turned into a living?!?!” Xander exclaimed horrified.
"Isn't this just like that game, plants versus zombies 69?" E-man jokes. The boys looked at each other, before letting out a huge laugh.
"It is what's going on!" Liam confirms as he joined them. Charlotte and Luxury seemed confused, before rejustifying the situation.
"Come on, this is no time to laugh and joke around, we will figure this out later. Let's first get out of here." Luxury sighed assertively. Steven patted the plant and it smiled brightly, as they got to position. The plants helped a whole lot. They would have probably been turned into one of them without them. After an hour of constant combat, they reached their destination; the Warehouse.

Noah placed his lightsaber on the ground and tried to open the door, but it was locked. Xander didn’t think that it was actually locked, just that he was weak, hence he tried himself. He later took a step back and nodded in confirmation that the door was locked. Now Noah is bullying the poor Xander. Luckily the area was zombieless, as if someone had been there. Noah picked up his lightsaber, which was amazingly not broken yet from attacking that amount of predators, and took a swing at the front door. But to their expectations, it didn’t even shake; it was sealed tightly. They took a look around the red and greyly designed building and managed to find a back door.

“Why is there an unlocked back door in most of these buildings, it is just so dumb,” Bob complained in enjoyment. Steven clicked opened the door, and to his surprise, the inside seemed fortified and looted. They got closer together and held their weapons high. Slow, careful human footsteps started to be heard from the three corners. It got louder and louder, as the mood of the group shifted from success and unpleasantness.They might kill us for our resources. Steven felt the goofiness of the dark and mysterious energy, it seemed familiar. The plants had looked exhausted along with them. An hour of combat was just way too much. Steven looked and predicted the situation, there was only one good move here.

“We come in peace! Please show yourselves,” Steven placed his weapon back in the cart. He stepped forward slowly and carefully with his hands up.
“What are you doing!” Jimmy whispered in fear. But Steven didn’t care, this was the only good move with the highest probability of success. The quiet footsteps stopped. Everything went absolutely silent, along with the plants who hurdled themselves in fear. Wait, do plants even know fear?Over the defense borders made entirely of appliances, shelves, and sandbags, three shadows appeared. Their fear slowly disappeared, as they saw their kind faces.

…
They are ready to get to safety and advance. With their new help, they had everything they need; food, water, weapons, and other important needs. Steven looked at the slowly brightening sky with Jimmy, who was more confident and received the survival drive that he needed. The now brave and confident Elijah lifted his right hand, like the great Napoleon and commanded his friends in pleasure: “Fellas, prepare the Pea shooters!”
