Reborn As A Freakin' Zombie (Hiatus)

Capítulo 1: Chapter 1: Why? Just Why?

I was a typical normal guy. The one you mostly saw walking at the sidewalk while looking like his girlfriend just dumped him? Yep, that's me. My face is scrunched up. I was furious. I gave her everything. My shoes, my wallet, my limited edition Showman Beigns shirt. But she threw it all away. Saying that it's all useless. Excuse me? Do you have any idea how expensive those are? I have to fly from my home country, the Philippines, to the U.S to buy that limited edition Richael Hordan shoes and my precious Ten 10 wallet. Not to mention my Showman Beigns shirt...

How dare she. The last one almost cost me a flight on my way home but I persevered. I bought it all to show my love to her for our 2 year-anneversary. And what did she say to me?

"No. This is just...no. I'm sorry, I can't do this anymore. We're through".

...She did not just said that. Tell me, she DID. NOT. JUST. SAID. THAT. But reality is often dissapointing so here I am. Feeling like I want to burn the world and burn along with it. As I walk through the crossroad, I didn't saw the red light sign at the post with a truck approaching fast. The guard yelled at me but it was too late...I already crossed through the other side and is now at the entrance of the school.

Suddenly I heard a commotion.

"Everyone look out!"

"Hurry!"

"Out of the way!"

"Did you smell what the-"

"My baby!"

I turn around and saw a gigantic monster truck heading in my way. People are running trying to get away to avoid getting road killed.

"What the hell?!"

Alas that was the last time I spoke before I the giant tire came right at my face and darkness enveloped my vision.

So this is how I die. Run over by a monster truck. I thought Truck-kun might do the job but it seems he took a leave of absence. So what now? I hope I go to heaven. I promise, I'm a man of God. I'm a Christian and am damn sure being proud of it. But all I see so far is darkness, what does this mean?

Wait. I'm starting to feel again. I can feel my arms, my legs, my whole body. Is reincarnation real? Oh yeah, I'm excited baby. Let's see...Ahhhhhh!!!

I woke up on the sidewalk where I last stood up before I got road killed. I saw both my legs are broken in different places and my arms are both mangled like swirls. How am I still alive?! What the hell?! Did that monster truck didn't finish the job? Damn, how the hell did I survive? The tire was right at my face before it banished me to the world of darkness. Damn, it hurts just to breath. I'm coughing up blood. Oh God, I don't think I can even make it when I'm in this state. Suddenly I heard a noise. Huh? What is that? I turned my head to left and saw the same monster truck with it's engine growling like a lion.

...Are you serious right now?

With the last growl of the engine, it drove at me like an angry bull. I was filled with fear and panic. I lost all hope of living knowing I'm going to die anyway so I better make my last second count...

"I HATE YOU, MONSTER TRUCK BITC-"

A large squish sounds resonated as I met my end once again...

...And I'm back at the eternal darkness again too. Not gonna lie. That was a horrible experience. I envy the main characters I saw on isekai anime. They got run over one time, heck some of them got teleported through portals or something. But me? Like why? Just why did I have to get run over two times before I die? But I guess it doesn't matter now.

I suddenly saw a bright light. It's a bit yellowish but it's presence calms me. I tried to reach when I got pulled through it instead. Is this it? Will I get reincarnated like those isekai MC's? This better not take me back at that cursed sidewalk but I can't help but feel excited. Let's go!!

"Raargh!!"

What?

"Raarghs!!"

I got up from what seems to be a blooded tile floor. Huh? How many blood will I see in a life time? I look around and realize I was inside a hospital. It seems I'm at the hallway. The lights doesn't light well enough. The halls are splashed with blood and there are a few bits of scattered meat everywhere and-is that an eyeball?!

I think I'm gonna puke. Blu-

"Rarrgghs".

...

Was that noise from my mouth? I looked at myself and noticed that I don't have any shirt on except for tattered pants and I'm also missing a shoe. That's fine in all but I got weirded out when I saw my arms are so thin that bones are quite visible to the skin. My torso seems to be same, with my ribs being visible and all that. I also have a few bite marks. Probably from whatever that bit me. Did I inhabit the body of the dead after I died?

...I'm a zombie right now, don't I.

A long line of curses flew out of my mouth. Why?! Please God, tell me why?! Why not at least a cow or a cat? Why a zombie? This has got to be the worst day of my life. Haaaaaaah.

This is so messed up. If my body's like this, I don't ever want to see my face. Strangely enough, I can feel but not that much. Pain is abundant, that's for sure. That must be the reason why zombies are so resilient. They are lowkey undead tanks.

With nothing better to do, I started to walk across the hallway. The silence is deafening. The only sound I can hear is my footsteps. It took me awhile but I saw two separate doors located at the left and right side of the hallway. I went the left without thinking about too much and continued on my merry way.

Still the silence is still present. It's just too quite. Soon enough, I started to see bodies scattered along the way. Each of them are missing a few limbs or just flat out bone remains. They must be eaten by dozens of creatures like him. I can't help but feel sorry for them. I sent them a silent prayer first before I continue my way.

When I'm what seems to be an office, I finally heard noises. I head closer and what I saw made me sick to my undead stomach. Two zombies are eating a pregnant woman. Flesh upon flesh are devoured by the other while it's companion are eating the small unborn child. I was furious and before I know it I was behind the first one and delivered a spartan kick at the back of it's head. The head went to stone cold cement and got squashed by the impact. Effectively killing it. The other one saw this and leaped at me. It tackled me and we both crashed through the glass window.

We both separated upon landing on the floor and looked at each other.

"Raaarcgh"

It growled at me or talked to me? Can zombies talk? Don't know for sure. I sure as hell am not with my tongue missing after that impact. We circled each other like lions, yellow teeth bare, our hands stationed like claws and soon we pounced on each other again. It tried to scratch my face but I went down and grab hold of its leg but it noticed my approach so it stepped away.

This is one intelligent punk.

I tried to deliver a haymaker but it grabbed my arm and threw me to the bookshelf. What the hell? Is this thing trained from MMA? Where did it learn how to fight? I didn't ponder for long as I quickly avoid it's next attack. I saw a steel chair and quickly went to get it. As soon as I got it I couldn't help the small cackle that came from my mouth.

"Haghj, hagh"

It pounced on me but I was prepared. As soon as it got closed enough, I smacked its face sideways. Woo! How do you like that you flesh-eating-monkey bitch!

I hit it again in the face making it stand straight looking at the ceiling. As soon as it descends back, I smacked it again in the face with all my might launching it the nearby glass window. It crashed through and I could hear a thud with it's impact on the floor.

Is it over? I didn't think zombies could be that strong. Heck, I didn't even know that I could be that strong. Despite being thin, I'm curious why I had that strength but question for another day. I walk to it's location while tightly holding my precious steel chair. When I got where it landed, it was gone.

Ok, this is not good. Where did it go?
