Chapter 3
The Battle On Bloody Hill
Two days after T.J. was taken we had all aquired weapons. We were not just fighting vessels of our own friends anymore we were also fighting vessels of Policeman who were also bitten. The only color we saw now was red. All red. The Vessels were painting the school with the blood of their kills. The smell of decay was all around us and everywhere we looked there were mangled bodies, torn limbs, and trails on entrails from a devoured carcass. The stagnated air began to seep into our pores and became like any other smell. We had seen Faygo a few times but he acted like he couldn't see us. He was waiting for the right time. The vessels were getting smarter. They figured out how to pick locks so we had to find a different spot. Some of them have began to run on all fours and have gained the ultimate Beast-Mentality. Juan is my trusted support in battle. Linzi has gone cold after losing T.J. Kristina uses spiked knuckles, Nikki uses Wrist-Blades. Brooke uses her speed and agility, along with strong Martial arts to defeat her opponents. I use my trusted assault rifle, It seems to kill on instant, the bullets explode, causing more blood splatter. We all have grown accustomed to death but we still grieve knowing it's them or us.

2:30p.m. Courtyard......

A shrieking yell was heard from the hill. We finally named it Bloody Hill, because the grass was dyed completely red with Blood. Two Vessels were fighting while others watched. The duelers were Dakota and Twiggy. I aimed my rifle but was tackled by another.

"Jon!!" Linzi said throwing her knife at the Vessel.

It shrieked in pain as it pulled the knife out of it's shoulder.

"We've been ambushed you guys!" Juan said pulling out his spiked bat.

"Well let's take out as many as possible! I'm sorry but if we don't live through this I'm glad I met you all!" I said slitting the vessels throat. A puddle of blood and his severed trachea flooded around my feet and I jetted toward Dakota and Twiggy. Juan and Brooke followed. Linzi pulled out a gernade launcher and blasted a group of vessels. Dakota hissed and Twiggy growled bearing there teeth like beasts. I aimed my gun at Dakota's gut and apologized before firing. The bullet lodged itself into his ribs and then exploded. The blood and innerds splatted everywhere. Twiggy ran and leaped onto the roof.

"I'm sorry!" Juan said throwing his knife.

It flew off the hill and lodged into Twiggy's back before she could pull herself up. She hissed as she fell to the floor. When she hit the Knife shot through her chest. She twitched like a fish out of water. The other Vessels ran and picked up her body before her arm dropped and her nerves died. We rushed back to the new hideout and prepared for dinner.............
