Hotaru sped quickly across the rooftops towards the survivors, however, it seemed that they were quite capable of taking care of themselves. Wooden planks shot from the arms of one of the men on the rooftop which snaked towards the infected, crushing their skulls and putting them to rest.[/blockquote]
Landing on the same rooftop as the survivors, Hotaru raised an eyebrow and assessed the new player. He was visibly older than her, though obviously a shinobi of some kind due to his build and abilities.
"Doesnt look like you need much help. Why didn't you do that sooner?"
She said flatly, wondering why he had reserved such a useful skill for now when he very well could have saved some lives if he had jumped into action earlier.
"Since you seem to be the leader, or at least the most skilled out of this group, you mind filling me in on whats going on? What happened to these people? Any information at all would be helpful."
If he was unable to provide any insights, she would have to continue her investigation, but whatever this stranger could say would potentially cut her lengthy research time. Waiting for an answer, she scanned the other passengers for injury or potential use.

Your observations about the building being a school are correct, and no sooner does the realization hit you that a small swarm of children stumbles out from the rear entrance. Despite appearing a few bite marks on their arms and legs and a red discoloration in their eyes, they look like normal toddlers. The dozen kids along with their teacher (a woman in a simple dress) have spotted you. The woman's head twitches violently as black sputum spews from her mouth, and the children waddle slowly towards you.
Their humanity seems easier to see than the rest of the faceless walking flesh eaters. Part of their identity persists, even in this altered state. Do you want to save them? Can you save them?
