Your pack felt heavy against your shoulders. Filled with necessities to survive, you weren't exactly sure for how long the worn out bag could last due to their enfeeble state from being used to carry heavy weights for the last two months.

The streets were in chaos, disorderly placement of abandoned vehicles littered the roads as well as rubble from the havoc that caused the city to run deserted was evident in every corner.

The city was almost inhabitable if it only wasn't for the remaining useful things that could be found amidst the wreck.

Spotting a pharmacy up ahead the street, Jihoon silently waved your group over, pointing towards the establishment to rummage the place for any useful findings that you could gather.

The eight of you ran towards the pharmacy, wearily raising your guns to point towards the front while Jihoon, the acting leader of your group raised his fingers to gesture silence. Slowly, he opened the glass doors to the side before stepping in, waving a hand for you and your friends to follow up.

Due to the newspaper that covered the glass walls of the pharmacy, the interior was more likely hidden from your eyes. So when you went in and noticed that it was still in a rather good condition for a search, you released a breath of relief.

"Yoshi, you come to the back with me. Haruto, [Y/N] and Junkyu, you three look for medicines and first aid kits we could use. Jeongwoo and Doyoung, you two be on guard while we rummage through this place," Jihoon instructed, eyes roaming around the whole deserted space. "We'll stay here for an hour and a half before going back to meet up with the rest. Go," With that, Jihoon alongside the other two he called on board went to open the back door behind the counter, their figures fading in the dark room.

Meanwhile, Doyoung and Jeongwoo left the pharmacy with their guns, opting to find a spot outside where they could get the perfect vantage point of passerbys, either walking alive or dead.

Junkyu adjusted the strap of his AK-47 on his shoulders, nudging the gun on his back before he walked over to the shelves lined with medicine bottles. "Come on, let's collect some of this babies."

Haruto made a face, brows knitting before he too went on ahead to grab a pouch from behind the counter for his own collection.

Placing your own M16 rifle down over the counter top with your heavy pack, you grabbed one of the pouch as well, throwing one to Junkyu who thanked you right after before going through the remaining products in the store.

You found some painkillers in the counter, some extra filled water bottles, syringe, cough drops, inhalers, face masks and some gloves. You made a peek at the other two. Junkyu and Haruto were going through the whole process of searching as well, their own pouches filled with medicines that you hoped they checked thoroughly for any damages.

Deciding that you were done, you kept the pouch inside your pack before sitting down on the ground and leaning your back against the cold wall, hauling your bag beside your leg as you sat. Junkyu followed after you, sitting beside you with his own collection and his rifle still placed behind him. Haruto on the other hand decided to seat on the counter top, a sigh leaving his lips as he wiped away the sweat that started to bead on his forehead.

"It's so hot in here," Complained Junkyu while tugging on the collar of his shirt. Haruto snickers a little before opening one of the water bottles from his backpack, the rising mischief ever present in his eyes.

"I'm sorry hyung. I didn't intend to make you feel so bothered by how hot I am." He fakes an apologetic look before unscrewing the lid of his bottle and drinking the soothing water down in big gulps.
