I stealthily climbed onto the roof of the school building, probing the air for Rachel''s scent.

''She should be deep within the school building now, I just need to find her...''

[Ding. Host has upgrades available, would host like to view available upgrades?]

''Yes, quickly, I have a feeling something''s gonna go wrong, but I hope I''m wrong.'' I swiftly climbed through a shattered window at a speed several times faster than a human could reach then looked at the screen in front of my face.

[Ding. Host has reached the second tier of evolution in defense, would host like to commence evolutionary path to defensive evolutionary path?]

''Wait, so I could reach Tier 2 instantly? I don''t need to meet the criteria of each one?''

[Ding. Host can evolve to the second stage of evolution immediately, however it is recommended that host strengthen yourself to the max before evolution.]

''Okay, I don''t evolve just yet, how much time does it take anyway?'' I asked while impaling a zombie that wandered into the room.

I dashed out into the hallway and rammed a zombie into the wall with my head.

[Ding. Point gained.]

I stuck out my proboscis and smelled/tasted the air, a lot of zombies, at least a few hundred still aimed the halls, and the darkness that the world itself was covered in gave me no reason to hesitate.

''The hunt begins...''

I rammed another zombie away and slashed it with my claws, gouging out a good chunk of it''s brain.

I threw the corpse into another unsuspecting zombie, then leapt and anchored myself to the roof, I ran along it, tail becoming a blur as I slashed the zombies as I passed by.

In my wars rang the ever sweet sound of notifications of points gained.

I came to a stop when I sensed a danger signal, on that made me hesitate.

Then an arm pushed through the ceiling and tore a hole on it.

Through the hole, I pair of savagely glowing green eyes met my gaze.

''Well, if I didn''t know better, I''d say that zombies are evolving too.''

[Ding. They are evolving, same as you are, this one is a Tier 2 zombie.]

''Oh, can you repeat that, I don''t think I heard you right, Tier 2, how?''

[Ding. Host holed up in the hospital, which gave other creatures a head start, but you aren''t to far behind, host is ranked 2nd in the world.]

Then the ceiling buckled and a small figure fell through.

[Ding. User has encountered a dangerous situation, activate user interface?]

''It would be appreciated, so do it.''

''Well, shit...''
