Lee Cheong-san x Lee Na-yeon | All of Us Are Dead

Memories

On-jo was running through the forest holding Na-yeon's hand and every time she glanced back, the girl was always looking behind them. She knew she was probably hoping that Cheong-san would pop out behind them, without a scratch on him, without him being a monster but as much as she wanted that, she knew it wasn't possible. Nam-ra was struggling to stand as the sound was getting louder and louder till she couldn't run anymore and Su-hyeok had to pick her up and piggyback her as they kept running. The forest was barren, they had expected to see at least a zombie but none of them were there, likely drawn by the sound.

"Come on guys, we're almost there," Su-hyeok said as they kept pushing, they hadn't had a moment to rest in however long and now they could almost see salvation.

Cheong-san had been running for a while as he kept shouting to draw the zombies till he glanced behind him and saw Gwi-nam's face drawn in a smile as he closed in behind him pushing zombies aside. "CHEONG-SAN !!!" he said the name with a smile as he started closing in behind him.  Cheong-san was glad that he didn't at least go after the group, he couldn't imagine the group fighting him right now after they had already been weakened, they had barely escaped last time and that was mostly due to luck. He didn't mind using himself as a sacrifice, he had to lead him further away.

He headed into a building as Gwi-nam fell to his knees because of the blaring sound but soon got up after a while, the zombies that were with him had run off towards the school but he didn't care as he could hear Cheong-san's frantic breathing as he ran up the stairs inside the unfinished building. Gwi-nam got up and went in hot pursuit after him, Cheong-san was already running out of breath, he could feel his body starting to go numb and tiredness was falling upon him but he knew he had to hold on. Cheong-san made it up the building as far up as he could and looked around and saw nowhere else to go, this was it. He turned around with a metal bar in hand as he waited for Gwi-nam to arrive, he didn't have to wait long.

Gwi-nam burst into the last floor looking around like a frantic animal before his eyes landed on Cheong-san and he smirked. "You really don't die do you?" Cheong-san said still out of breath, he was trying to psych himself up because he knew he was going to die here at this monster's hands. "I'm going to take your eyes, then I'm going to break every bone in your body before I eat you and kill you," Gwi-nam said stalking closer and closer towards him. Cheong-san raised his metal bar tightening it as much as he could even in his tired state. 

Gwi-nam feigned an attack and Cheong-san swung at him but he easily dodged it laughing at him. But Cheong-san maintained his stance at the ready as the two circled each other. Gwi-nam swung at him and Cheong-san dodged as the two began their bout. Cheong-san swung a couple of times managing to catch Gwi-nam off guard a few times which seemed to piss him off as he finally charged at Cheong-san. Gwi-nam tackled him to the ground as they both threw punches rolling on the floor but it was already clear who was stronger. They rolled around a few times till Gwi-nam finally got above him and held him down laughing at him.

Cheong-san didn't stop struggling but it only seemed to amuse Gwi-nam as he continued laughing in his face, "if only your little girlfriend could see you now" he said before looking down at him the laughter and smile fading into a cold expression. "I will take the eye you owe me now," he said and Cheong-san realised what he meant and went to try and protect his eye. Gwi-nam easily overpowered him as he held Cheong-san's head down trying to gouge his eye out. Cheong-san fought as much as he could but he could feel the difference in their strength, it wasn't him putting up a fight that was slowing Gwi-nam down, it was almost as if the monster was savouring it.

Gwin-nam finally grew bored as he gouged at Cheong-san's eye, Cheong-san let out a scream so loud that he didn't believe it came from him as his hands quickly went to cover his now bleeding eye socket. Gwi-nam licked off the blood smiling as he looked at Cheong-san writhing and screaming in pain on the ground, as he played with the eye before he ate it with a smile on his face.
