"Stop being such a jerk!Aren't we on the same boat?Shouldn't we help each other out?The more people the better,isn't it?" Mana questioned,(Y/n) look at her surroundings 'That's not how it works sweetie.That's how you'll get more undead with you if we group up.It's like a death bomb for all of us if you guys tag along.'

"That's not how it works in this situation.Food and water will soon be scarce if order isn't restored and undead aren't eradicated." Noah said 'Who would have thought that we'd run into her this early into the armageddon?But that's to be expected since I kept Neo and (Y/n) with us in this time line.'Noah thought

"T-That's right,we alone already have trouble with food and water..." Parish spoke "Talking about food and water,I see a mall in the distance,do you think we should stop by there?" Li suggested to Noah "Mall?Do you mean,that mall over there...?" Wyn then pointed at the direction where he thinks Li was talking about

When you squint your eyes to see,your eyes widen to your horror. In that mall was filled with undead behind that glass door. Parish gasped in horror "Is that...?" Ian questioned,having an wavy voice when he spoke "It's exactly what you're thinking.Swarming those glassed doors are those monsters." Wyn said

"The morning the outbreak happened,the mall was having a grand sale.As a result,right now,that mall is now infected with those monsters." He explained

'Well then I guess I know why there's an exceptional amount of survivors here right now.They got lucky since the majority of the city's population seems to be inside that mall.' Noah thought,looking at how many undead there were "T-That's impossible,dear.Let's not." Parish said,looking at how dangerous it looks

"You say that,but do we really have any other option?" Noah remarked "We can try other stores around the town?I'm sure there's still a lot of things that we can find.It's only been a day!" She exclaimed,trying to convince Noah to not go to that mall "Actually,the most we have here besides that mall are local convenient stores,which I don't think would have the stuff you're looking for.Unless you just want chips and snacks." Wyn said

"But hey,if you're really in dire need,we just happen to have some dry food as long as you let us--" "I hate being in debt." Noah cut Wyn off,he welped

"Anyway,it doesn't like we've a lot of options to begin with.We're going for that mall.I do understand the risk of this trip,so Li,Parish,Lena you keep the children safe and stay back."

"Wait,you said it yourself,this is suicidal.And you expect me to go with you??" Ian questioned "You don't have to.If you are a woman or a child." Noah retorted,getting Ian mad "Son of a..." Ian trailed off,getting irritated "Sir,please let me go with you." Li spoke,raising her hand "Li,you don't have to."

"I insist,sir." Not going to back down,Noah sighed "Ah fine,thank you..." he thanked her "I'm going too." Hearing two voices spoke,when he turn his haed to the direction where it came from. It belongs to two kids,one smiling at him and the other having almost his face covered,except his one navy blue eyes to see.

Noah sweatdrop "It's really dangerous,I don't think you two should--" "We insist." Not budging one bit,pinching the bridge of his nose 'Maybe it's not so bad.I feel uneasy letting Neo out of my sight. Though,I guess letting (Y/n) tag along would be fine.' "Fine.You two can come.But stick close to me." He then feel a tug on his sweater "Can I come too?" Abel questioned,Parish eyes widen "ABEL?!" "If he's going with you,then I want to go too!" Abel said

Noah then sighed,feeling a bit stressed "Look,Abel.This isn't a field trip.You're still too young for this.Let the older ones take care of this and stay safe for me,alright?"
