Apocalypse // Stray Kids

05

Ha-rin

I stood there in shock as I watched my classmates get bitten and turned into another creature. The screaming was muffled by the glass door, but they continued to bang on it, wanting to come in. I don't know if I should help them or leave them.

My decision was made when the glass broke and everyone from out side tumbled in.

My eyes widened at the snarling sounds people made. They didn't look like human, they looked completely different.

The screaming started up again and everyone was running around. 

I got bumped into a few times. I wanted to run, but I just couldn't. I was completely frozen in my place. They kept on running into me, until I fell to the floor. I went to get up, but I was way too close to getting trampled on.

I stared in front of me to see A-ri, a girl in the year above glaring at me. Warts all over her face. Eyes bloodshot red and blood dripping down her chin. She made that awful snarling sound and charged right at me.

I scrambled to get up, but my shoes kept on slipping on my skirt.

Suddenly, someone grabbed my bicep and yanked me up before A-ri could throw herself at me. She grabbed my ankle and was about to take a bite, but Hyunjin stomped on her arm and she let go after a few steps.

She hissed on the ground and got up in the most painful way. Her arms and legs moved in the wrong direction to get her up and her arm looked fine.

Hyunjin ran through the crowd, pulling me along with him, trying to look for a away out.

He stopped for a second to glance through the cafeteria before someone else that looked the same as A-ri came running at him. He let me go to shove him away, and gripped my hand again and once again, we were running through the screaming crowd. 

The sprinklers from the ceiling turned on which made the tilted floor more slippery to run through.

Another one came running at me and I pulled away from Hyunjin to push him away, but instead , I fell to the floor with him on top of me.

He had his mouth open, ready to bite me as I struggled to get him off. Blood was drooling out of his mouth and falling onto the collar of my shirt.

"Hyunjin!" I shouted, needing his helping.

The creature was suddenly pulled off me and slid across the floor away from me and Hyunjin. He looked at me knelt down. "Are you alright? You weren't hurt?" He asked as he examined me. I shook my head. He nodded and pulled me up again and ran to the wall where everyone that wasn't infected was climbing out a small window.

"That's our only exit." He told me and ran towards the group and I followed behind him.

"Ladies first!" Someone called and everyone made room for me and Hyunjin so I could climb out. Hyunjin held my hand as I swung one of my legs outside. I looked back at Hyunjin with tears in my eyes. "Don't worry, I'll be right behind you." He said gently. I nodded and jumped out.

I stumbled a bit on the gravel, but I picked myself up and waited for Hyunjin to jump out, but two others that wasn't him did instead.

I heard that crusty growl coming from around the corner and I started to panic. There were more coming this way. I tapped my foot impatiently as I helped someone else that wasn't Hyunjin out of the window. 

"Hyunjin! Hurry up!" I screamed and the creatures came sprinting towards me.

"Shit." I whispered under my breath as they came closer and closer.

Suddenly, my arm was being pulled away from the creatures and Hyunjin was leading the way, avoiding every little place where we could be harmed.

"This way!" Hyunjin yelled, pulling my towards a trunk that had crashed into the school. He helped up onto the trailer, punching any of the infected and followed me up. We climbed onto a balcony and he opened a window. "Hurry." He said and climbed through and I went in after him.

He gripped my hand again once we were inside and ran down the hall, away from the creatures that were chasing after us.

He finally opened a door and pulled me in and shutting it after we were both inside.

"Stay the fuck back." Someone said and we both turned around.

Seven others were in the room with us and I only noticed Felix and Ji-a. They didn't look infected, they looked normal.

"Don't worry." Hyunjin said calmly, "we weren't bitten."

A taller guy came over to see if we were lying or not and then he shook his head at the other six. "No bites." He told them and they all sighed with relief.

The door bangs again which made us all jump.

"Don't open it!" Another guy who was in my year yelled. 

"It's Jeong-in and Seungmin." The taller guy said and quickly opened the door from them. Instead four more people piled in.

"What the fuck!" Screeched June, a girl in my class, "you said there was only two!"

"Relax, we aren't infected." Seungmin told us, panting for breath.

"What happened to you?" Felix asked, nodding to Jeong-in.

"Some crazy bitch sprayed the fire extinguisher everywhere and it got in my eyes." Jeong-in replied, sitting on the ground.

"Ok, what in the fuck is happening right now?" Another girl yelled.

"Every seen the American movie Unhuman?" Felix said.

"No." She replied.

"Good movie, highly recommended." He stated, shrugging a little. "But it's something like that."

"What? People getting turned into zombies?" Lee Know questioned and Felix nodded at him.

It was quiet again between all of us until someone spoke up.

"Well, I'm Bangchan." The tall guy said, smiling sheepishly. 

We all nodded and waved at him and then it was silent again until Hyunjin. "I'm Hyunjin." He waved a little and leaned against the desk.

"I'm Felix."

"Changbin."

"Lee Know."

"Han."

"Seungmin, as you all know, and Jeong-in."

"But friends call me I.N for short." Jeong-in explained.

"I'm Ji-a." She spoke up quietly.

"Clarity." A girl with short brunette hair said. She looked a little younger than me.

"I'm Clara and this is my brother Jeremy." Clara said. She also had brown hair but a bit longer and she pointed to the guy next to her that looked exactly like her. 

"Jamie, this is Rhys." A young boy with brown fluffy hair said and pointed to a taller boy with blonde hair.

"I'm Ha-rin." I said shyly. The girls smiled and waved at me nicely while the boys just nodded.

"Well we all know who June is." Changbin said, taking a seat on the floor.

"Should that be a good thing?" June asked.

Changbin nodded. "A very good thing."
