The Light We Lost (horror)

Friday, 11th March 2055, 12:05 pm. Seoul, South Korea. 89 days since the outbreak. The sun above my head looked no more a yellow; the uncanny green had taken over it. No sign of an animal or an insect just brazen land stretching itself beyond the limit. The blazing ball of green fire was spitting out poisonous gasses. I don't think we'll be able to survive for more than a week now. My face was all scratched up and my skin was so close to tearing up into two pieces, sweat dripping from every piece of my body. My throat was beseeching for some water, but I don't think I'd even find a drop of water out here. I was currently hiding inside a tattered house so that they won't find me.

They who? The reason behind this mess; The Zombies.

I know, even I didn't believe in any of this when it flashed on the news a few weeks ago, because till then all this sounded so fake and delusional, but when I saw them, they looked so ghastly that it was horrific and terrifying. Green, rotten skin; walking dead. Eyes holding nothing but lifelessness in them, their growls were so scary as if they're trying to eat your ears from the inside.

I don't think there's nobody else alive here instead of me

"Tae...I checked out, it's safe to go out"

And my lover, Jeon Jungkook.

He had gone out to look if there were any zombies around. We are planning to escape to a hilly area where and contact the government so that they can rescue us.

I hugged him tightly as he panted in my embrace. He patted my back, knowing how scared I was; I know he is too, but at least, we're glad that we both have each other.

"It's okay, babe. Everything will be fine, we'll be safe. I'll protect you" He said, pecking my lips and caressing my cheeks.

"Shall we go?" He asked, holding my hand and dragging me outside. His steps were alert, eyes watching the surroundings like a hawk. My heart was beating so fast thinking about encountering one of them again.

They took everyone away from me in front of my open eyes; my friends, family and everyone out there and made them one of themselves.

After noticing that the coast was clear, we ran; we ran for our life. We've been running like idiots for 45 days now, trying to find some safe place but there is nothing left untouched by them. My legs were aching, the blisters on my feet had burst and been bleeding but I dared to stop. I dared not stop for the man running in front of me, wounds all over his tired body.

We gasped for breath as my legs gave up and I fell to the ground. My boyfriend immediately turned towards me and crouched down, worry lacing his eyes.

"Babe, are you okay? Should I carry you?" Just look at him. His knuckles are bleeding from fighting every zombie we have met till now, there were cuts all over his face, but all he cares about is me, a helpless man who is nothing without him.

I just wanna cry so badly now, I just wanna give up, but there's still this ray of hope left inside me that we'll finally get over this and will live a happy life again. Just me and him, laughing and loving.

This man doesn't make me wanna give up.

"No, I'm fine" I said, wiping the sweat off my mouth and getting up.

"Let's hurry up. We're running out of time" He said and I nodded.

Before we could start running, he gasped and halted in his actions.

"Shh Taehyung" He silenced me. I looked from behind him, and my eyes immediately got wide.

It was a zombie, charging towards us.

My heartbeat quickened as I saw it pacing closer towards us. Jungkook was ready with his fists up in the air, and attacked the zombie, beating the shit out of him.

When the dead itself lay unconscious, he stood up, wiping the blood of his fist to his dirty t-shirt and panted.

"We need to leave right now, Tae" He spoke and I nodded, but before I could walk towards him, he gasped and dashed towards me.

In a second, I was thrown to the side and Jungkook was beating another zombie that was behind me.

After he was done attacking it, he collapsed on the ground. I ran towards him and what I saw next horrified me.

"No no no no no no no" My knees gave up as I fell on the ground. I grabbed Jungkook's t-shirt and shook him, tears escaping my eyes endlessly.

"What the fuck did you do, Jeon Jungkook?!! Why did you do this?!!" I screamed at him, who just smiled at me through the pain.

"Because I lo-love you" He said, blood gushing out of his mouth.

I pulled him in a hug, crying my chest out while hitting him with my light, powerless punches.

The man I love so much is in my arms after being bitten by a zombie

"Why couldn't it be me?" I softly cried while looking at him.

"Leave, Taehyung" He groaned out, of course, it was hurting him. His insides were changing; he was being eaten alive.

"I won't. I won't" I shook my head while crying.

"I said leave!" He pushed me away with all the might he was left with.

"And I said I won't! I'd rather die by your hands than leave you!" I screamed, kissing him as he kissed me back, pouring all his feelings out.

I choked on my tears as we departed; his head on my lap.

"Please, babe. I don't wanna hurt you" He said, cupping my cheek with his warm, bleeding hand. I clasped his hand and kissed it.

"I don't care, Jungkook" I cried, tangling my hand with his.

"Don't you see what I have become?!" He yelled, getting up, dragging himself away from me, but I held his hand and dropped to my knees.

"I'll love you whichever way you are" I sobbed but he only let me see his tears as he tried to snatch his hand away from me.

"I didn't save you so that I could kill you. Hurry up and leave before it takes over" He spoke but I didn't let go of his hand.

"To die from your hands would be like receiving god's blessing" I smiled at him. He said nothing but cried as he tried to snatch his hand away from me but I didn't let that happen.

I heard a growl and gasped. I got up and quickly dragged Jungkook inside the closest building I could find. I panted as I peeked outside to see two zombies walking away.

"Don't worry, Jungkook. I will save you. I promise I will" I spoke but got nothing but silence in response.

My heart stopped as I heard small grunts.

"Taehyung"

I heard his voice; very unfamiliar.

I turned my head towards him, my eyes crying with pain and my heart shaking with fear.

"I am hungry"
