Shit.

I grab I-sak's hand, "We have to get out of here. Where's On-jo?"

The fire alarms go off and I let go of her hand to cover my ears. Since when are they this loud?

I look around at the complete chaos. Fire in the kitchen. Water and students everywhere. Blood.

I spot On-jo and Cheong-san and sigh. They're safe, good.

Where's Gyeong-su? I try to focus but it's difficult to.

"Gyeong-su?"

I can't fucking focus on anything. I think maybe I got blood in my eyes, everything is red. I'm so confused.

"Gyeong-su where are you?"

"Hurry and get up here!" Someone screams. I feel someone grab my arm and I pull it away thinking it was one of those... zombies?

Zombies.

ZOMBIES!

HELL YEAH, I'M IN A ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE. I smile. I'm gonna beat everyone's asses and commit arson.

"What the fuck are you smiling about? Come on, Y/n!" It's Cheong-san and On-jo. We go onto one of the tables. More like I got dragged there but alright.

He tells On-jo to go out through the window and helps push her up.

"Your turn." He tells me once she's done.

"I don't have the body strength to do that."

"Yes you do, now hurry up." He helps me climb out the window and I fall on the floor with a thud. Ow. Cheong-san falls out shortly after but more gracefully.

Once we make sure he's out, we run, but a zombie falls in front of us. "Hell no. Turn around. Turn around." I push them the opposite way.

We turn in the other direction but there's also a zombie there. Luckily for us there is a third direction for us to run in.

We go through the parking lot and a truck crashes into the side of the building, hardly missing us. I wince at the noise, "Fuck."

We climb the truck that crashed and Cheong-san helps On-jo onto one of the class balconies.

He grabs my hands signaling for me to go next. I shake my head. "I have enough sneaking out experience to climb that wall. You go first." I say, but really I'm just trying to catch my breath.

"You sure you can get up by yourself?"

"Yes. Now hurry up, they're climbing the truck."

"Okay..." He's reluctant but complies. Once he's up I start to climb. When I reach the top On-jo helps me up the rest of the way.

We open a window and go inside the school for some reason. We run up the stairs but there's too many zombies.

Cheong-san starts to fight off some zombies and I attempt to help. I look around for an exit or a weapon, and my eyes stop on a fire extinguisher.

"On-jo," I point at the fire extinguisher. She nods and grabs it off the wall, spraying all the zombies around us. We run to a classroom and bang on the door.

"Don't open the door. Don't open it!"

Na-yeon, respectfully, go fuck yourself.

Eventually the door is opened and I, who is, or was, leaning on it, falls on the ground. "Ouch."

I get dragged inside and the door is shut again.

"Are you okay?" Gyeong-su says while I-sak and On-jo have their little moment.
