Fanon:Big Nate in the apocalypse

Hello! This is a fan fiction that looks over if the events of the last of us happened in big Nate!

Prologue
“You hear the news?!” Nate asked teddy, “hell yeah i did!” Teddy responded “no school until further notice!” they hi-five and do a little dance “so what do you wanna do first?” teddy asked “well” Francis said bumping into the conversation “we should probably collect food and water i heard that infection is spreading closer and closer to Maine “aw come on Francis!” Nate complained “we can’t have any fun the the apocalypse?” “If we want to survive we have to prepare Nate!” Francis shot back “well you can go PrEpArE me and teddy will have a good time” “fine then!” Francis stormed off angry

“what’s his problem?” Teddy wondered “why can’t he loosen up?” “Doesn’t matter” Nate replied “lets go to the arcade.” When they got there there was a big sign in front of the building. [CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE] “no!” Nate yelled, disappointed “well there goes our day” Teddy groaned “lets try the beach” the two went all over town but every place was closed they walked over to sunshine soup kitchen “wait” teddy said “hear that?” They stopped aa seagull chirped but the faint sound of a person struggling could be heard “lets check it out” teddy whispered they followed the sound of the struggling and turned a corner to find a man, he looked like the manager of sunshine soup kitchen but his clothing was ripped up and red “hello?” Teddy said. The man looked at him and charged.

“Look out!” Nate yelled teddy dodged out of the way just in time.the man swiped at them but barley missed “run!” Teddy said, panicking the two dashed out of the alley the zombie in hot pursuit. Nate looked around and saw a big sign on the road [QUARANTINE ZONE:PS.38 MIDDLE SCHOOL] Nate let out a sigh of relief “this way!” Nate told teddy. they ran up the road and saw the school “were close teddy!” Nate assured him “Nate help!” Nate looked behind him and gasped in horror.

Teddy was pined down by an infected person and was struggle in to get up. "N-nate!" he breathed. "aAh-" He yelled in pain. “Teddy no!” Nate yelled in sorrow “run!” Teddy said back as he was strugging for air under the zombies tight grip…BANG a gunshot went straight through the head of the infected nate looked around in disbelief and saw a military officer at the top of the hill “cmon!” The officer yelled “this way!”

The 3 ran down to the school, the military had created a makeshift wall using the school buses Nate and teddy made it inside “this is a quarantine zone?” Nate said “thought it would be more military.” It was mostly the same school but some of the doors were locked off this was the start of something horrible.

20 years later…
Nate woke up having that same dream again, siting in his house watching tv with Francis and teddy but that was the old world he had to survive now. The ps.38 quarantine zone fell to a horde a while ago “you awake?” Someone asked him “yeah Jenny” Nate replied, the two were probably the only survivors of the QZ except teddy but he ran away.

“Ok we gotta go this place isn’t safe anymore” Jenny ordered “it was never safe in the first place” Nate shot back “just come on i heard there’s a zone down in Boston” “do we even want to mangle with the military?” Nate proposed. “One wrong move and a bullet goes straight through our head” “ok” Jenny said with a hint of anger in her voice “any other ideas?” Nate though for a moment “Francis is out there” Nate pointed out “last time i heard he set up camp in Kansas”

Jenny pulled out her canteen “Kansas is far away” she said drinking her water, “it would take us months to get there” “what if we get a vehicle” Nate suggest “I bet FEDRA left some of there goodies at the zone," “we’ve looted there a million times Nate there is no way that a vehicle would be working without us knowing besides we don’t know how to drive!” Nate walked over to a table and sat down “its not like we have any other choices” Nate pointed out “fine we can try it” Jenny reluctantly said “grab your things.”

”this one is dead” Nate sighed, there been doing this for an hour and still none worked. when they first arrived there were still some infected outside the school Nate even recognized some of them. He still missed those days… Nate shook his head and put himself in the present “let’s try this one!” Jenny hollered to Nate, it was a big humvee probably used to transport important cargo like medicine and guns “the keys are still in” Jenny said looking through one of the windows. She looked around and found a old tire iron, she picked it up and attempted to smash the window to get in.

After a couple tries the window shatters with a loud crack! Nate hears growling from far away “shoot” he mumbles “there are still some infected left” but something sounded different there was a clicking noise along with the growling “Jenny can you hurry!” Nate pulled a pistol he got from a dead officer “Working on it!” Jenny replied stubbornly there was a whir, then the truck roared to life “no way!” Jenny said inside the truck “this thing works!” Nate quickly got in the passenger seat. Jenny messed with the controls and eventually got the truck moving

“over there!” Nate pointed to a side of the school  where multiple infected ran out some of them being clickers (they are blind but use echolocation by clicking and are stronger that your average runner) “clickers!” Jenny cursed “get on the mounted turret!” She pointed up to a hatch and Nate climbed. When he got up he railings there was a small window he could see out of and 2 bars to grab on he then saw that they connected to the turret outside. Nate smiled and turned the turret to the infected, opening fire. Sure it was loud but the thick shell of the truck helped block the noise.

Nate smiled with glee as the infected went down one by one. After all the infected were gone Nate went down to talk with jenny “I think were good” Nate sighed to her “great because were leaving now” jenny ordered to Nate “what? We can’t just leave our childhood town yet!” Nate thought about all the good times in rakleff. He can’t just go away and forget about it “can we just…visit my house before we go?” Jenny sighed “fine but make it quick!”

Memories
The truck halted in front of Nates old house, he stepped out of the truck “5 minutes” Jenny said “I’ll wait here” Nate nodded and walk to his house he creaked the door open in case of spores clear, Nate walked it and looked around at his old house the tv still on channel 7 the kitchen with was oddly empty and his room still dirty he was walking through when he noticed a stack of comics in a corner. He walked over and pick the top one up: dr cesspool and moe mentiom in SITE ACCIDENT! He remember this one it was a dr cesspool moe crossover. he grabbed a few more and put them in his backpack. Before he left, Nate checked his dads room for anything when he creaked the door spores came out… oh no

Nate put on his gas mask and went in. Nothing was there at first sight there was a box with a note on top of it on the bed Nate walked over to pick it up. Then the closet burst open and a stalker (2nd phase high intelligence and likes to hide) ran out and jumped Nate. Surprised by this, Nate fumbled for his knife while keeping the stalker away. He finally got a grip on his knife and stabbed the zombie through the head realizing who it was, it was Marty. Half his face was covered with the fungal infection, and he had gotten noticeably more fit. Nate wondered how he even survived this long without a singe doughnut or milk dud. Nate got up and picked up the note:

to: Nate

''hey kiddo! It’s been what? 3 years? 4? Ive missed seeing you! I don’t have the papers to get into that quarantine zone! I hope their school is doin ya some good! I've been dieting lately I mean it’s not like a have a choice hehe. Mr eutiese found this big thing of m&ms when scavenging! They’re so good I need to remember to ration them. Anyways Ellen in about to come back from her scavenge and- ope! That must be her! Stay safe Nate!''

-dad

tears dropped onto the note as Nate cried he looked back at the closet that the corpse of Ellen was sitting in. he might of hated her sister then but now, he would give anything for one more Minute with them. he composed himself, and looked in the box it was a shirt. his favorite all yellow with blue section on top Nate put it to his face, it still smelled like cheese doodles. Nate put the shirt in his pack and went out to meet jenny “Ok lets go” and the two drove away from there childhood to find new refuge.

Trouble in Albany ny
Nate and jenny have traveled for about a week making it all the way to New York (the state) they tried to steer as far away from Boston. “I have a bad feeling” Nate said looking through the window “you say that every time we pass through a town of city” Jenny humorously said back “every thing is gonna be fine” but Nate knew something was up they are passing through Albany right now, Nate grabbed the shirt from his pack and held it close he thought of it as a good luck charm.

They were passing next to a bank when they heard clicking coming from it “should we take care of them?” Nate whispered to Jenny “no its a waste of bullets” there was then a BANG and all of the clickers went crazy there were more sounds of gunshots coming from the bank “alright now we have to go in” Nate exclaimed “what if they help us?” “What if they kill us?!” Jenny swiftly replied. But it was to late as Nate walked out of the truck there were 2 or 3 more shots the silence.

Nate peaked around the corner and saw what looked to be a adult man his age looting a crate on top of dead infected. Nate pulled his pistol out and walked up to the man “who are you?” Nate demanded “and don’t try to do anything.” “I know that voices” the man said, Nate’s eyes widened in surprise he knew that obnoxious voice anywhere “Artur!” The man turned and Artur’s eyes met Nates he barley changed over the years. Nate wondered what Jenny would say “i thought you died!” Nate had hoped he died but out of everyone he knew he didn’t expect Artur to survive “hallo friend Nate!” He ran over and came in for a hug “I thought ps38 zone fell?” “I survived” Nate admitted “along with someone i think your eager to see”

Surprise
”Artur!” jenny yelled in happiness “I can’t believe your alive” Jenny ran to hug him and Nate gaged “what are you even doing out here?” Nate asked to Artur “last time we saw you, you sneaked out of the zone to join Francis!” “Long walk with no car” Artur explained. Nate thought about it, Artur didn’t leave with anything really. His thoughts were interrupted when there was a CRASH! And sounds of infected grew “i forgot mention we not alone here!” Artur panicked.

“Get in the truck!” Jenny yelled. The three ran inside the truck and jenny started driving the sound of gunshots arose and the truck was Getting shot “the truck wont break will it?” Nate worried. “This is military wont break in 100 years” Jenny kept driving but then the sound on two other cars behind them grew “i think they are following!” Artur yelled to the others “how do we shake them off?” “We cant!” Jenny said struggling with the wheel.

“Get on the turret Nate!” he rushed to the ladder, climbed and prepped the turret Nate aimed it behind them they were right. Two green and blue Hondas were in hot pursuit people in the passenger seats were shooting at them. Nate was firing at them when a ford truck came in from another street and rammed the humvee. “We’re going down!” Jenny screamed the truck flipped over and the 3 survivors got knocked out.

Captured
when Nate and the gang woke up, they found themselves in a makeshift cell “where ares we?” Artur asked “some sort of cell” Nate looked over and jenny was already up “somewhere in the middle of the city” Nate checked for his bag “they took all our things” jenny added “called us “prisoners of war”

Nate observed his surroundings, behind the bars there was a man standing guard with a rifle “hey!” Nate yelled to the guard, the guard glanced over “when are we getting out of here?!“ “When we say so! Now shut up!” The guard barked harsh.

The arena
Nate and his companions were siting in silence when something talked on the guards wakie  “hm…really?….ok” he but the wakie away and walked over to the cell “sorry” he put on a mask and threw what looked like a gas grenade into the cell. Whatever it was it knocked the three out

Nate opened his eyes and looked around. He was alone in a small corridor he looked over at a shelf and saw a switchblade grabbing it. There was then a slight rumble as a nearby door opened to a wide space.

There was cover and walls and Nate realized where he was “an arena” Nate said to himself he looked to his sides and 3 other doors opened with his two friends walking out “ARE YOU READY!!” Someone yelled through a speaker. “WE HAVE OUR 4 CONTESTANTS LETS SEE HOW LONG THEY SURVIVE!” Nate wondered who the forth person was. Nates thoughts were interrupted when a hatch opened and infected poured out.

Fighting
the second they saw him, the infected charged at Nate all he had was a switchblade but he could still fight he ran to jenny and Arturs side the two also having weapons “what’s the plan?” Jenny asked “we fight” Nate replied “all of these infected?! I don’t think so!” Jenny then ran away from the two “Jenny!” Artur said chasing after her. Nate sighs and readies himself for the infected. There are 5 runners charging at him he pushes one and stab it in the jugular.

He then gets slapped by another before kicking it and throwing it to the ground. The other three crowded around nate, he tried to fight back but they overwhelmed him. He almost got bit when another person grabbed a runner and pined it on the ground quickly stabbing it. Since the 2 remaining infected were filled with surprise, Nate tackled one and threw his knife at the other right in the chest. “Thanks” Nate said to the person who saved him “no problem man-“

Reunion
“Randy!?” Nate yelled in confusion “Nate?!” Randy said back. Randy looked more worn out then when Nate last saw him “what are you doing here?” Randy yelled confused “I want ask the same thing!” Nate said back “no time these things wont stop coming unless we close the gate you come alone?” “No” you say” “jenny and artur ran when the arena begun.”

“Classic” Randy scowls.”let’s go find them!” Nate and randy ran across the area, it was a pretty big arena and multiple infected were there but it was no problem for Randy and Nate. “Over there!” randy hollers. Nate looks over at jenny and Artur were cornered by infected. randy looked around and started digging in a specific area. "buddy told me about this" he pulled out a thing of bourbon and a lighter "get down!" randy yelled to the pair as he lit and drew the malatov.

the fire spread through all the infected that were after them "quick close the gate!" randy pointed at the hatch as more infected ran through. Jenny ran over to the gate smashing in infected on the way "Nate help me with this" the two pushed the gate together and were able to seal off the runners.

aftermath
"wo!" Nate exclaimed "we did it" the gang then looked around at the crowd who were booing them. "lame!" "fight them like a man!" "bring out the final guys already!" the crowd complained. WELL DONE CONTESTANTS! an announcer said once again BUT DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO TAKE ON THE FINAL CHALLANGE! cheer erupted from the crowd as a big gate on the other side of the field opened and growling came out from it.

"Randy what's this?!" Jenny said panicked "take cover!" randy said as he pulled nate to the ground. a giant BOOM blasted above them and mycotoxins spewed out "its a bloater!" Jenny yelled "get down!" the unit of a zombie threw another mycotoxin pod and this time it hit someone.

"Artur!" Nate yelped as his friend got directly hit my the pod, there was some coughing and then Aurtur came limping out of the toxins with a chemical burn on his face. "I am fine" he grunted out as he fell to the ground. "we gotta leave Nate!" Randy yelled throwing a brick at the beast "I'm getting Aurtur!" Nate yelled. he ran over to his fallen friend and got him up on his shoulder "you're gonna live okay!" the bloater regained its footing and charged at Nate, "cmon!" Randy said as they ran through the gate the bloater entered in. "let's get out of here!"

Escape!
the group rushed through the gate with the infected not far behind. the crowed started booing as well "get back here!" one screamed. The gang went through a series of tunnels until eventually they found a way out into a warehouse packed with tents and barrel fires that look like they haven't been relit in years "its an abandoned camp" Nate stated. there was then a THUNK From the big door at the end of the building "hide!" Jenny said.

Nate took Artur and set him in one of the tents "you okay?" Nate asked "n-not really" artur mumbled back "don't move" Nate replies, he peeks out the tent and the big door on the other side of the warehouse slides open.

"we know your in here!" A man screams as he enters in "Nancy block the door" another person came in and stood in front of the only way out
