Chasing After You - Woosan

-Chapter 31-

San pov.  

I wasn't sure when they had knocked me unconscious but now i was slowly opening my eyes to a blinding ceiling lamp. A working lamp, that's rare.

I slowly sat up, blinking, trying to adjust my eyes to the sudden light. I sat up, the room i was in was not that big and consisted of a board with some kind of hard mattress that you could hardly call a bed, a table and two chairs to go with it. The walls were bare concrete and two lamps hung from the ceiling. 

I got up from the bed and looked around, there were no windows and the only light source was the lamps in the ceiling. I was surprised they hadn't taken everything from me since I still had my own clothes on but nothing else. They had even taken out the ear piercing I had.

I slowly walked over to the door and listened for any sound. Footsteps. I continued listening to see if the person continued on past the door. After a while i couldn't hear the footsteps anymore since the person had continued on walking. I moved my hand to feel if the door was locked or not and I was lucky.

I slowly peeked out of the room to see if someone was there and there wasn't. suspicious, Z wouldn't just leave me alone in an unlocked room. I opened the door wider and looked out. It was a small corridor with similar doors both on the sides of me and on the wall opposite to mine.

Suddenly I heard footsteps and something being rolled over the floor. I quickly closed the door but made sure it didn't make any sound but I didn't go unnoticed, fuck. I heard two faint voices speaking with each other coming closer.

"Did that door just close?" a female voice said. Weird, since when did Z decide to stop being sexist and hire women? As far as I knew everyone who had ever worked for Z was men, men who couldn't take that solos were simply better than them. Well apparently there were women working for him as well but it didn't really matter since they were all trying to hunt down and kill solos for some reason.

"Yeah I think so, should we go check on the guy or call Z?" Another voice answered the women, this time it was a man that spoke. Their footsteps stopped not so far away from the door. "Checking wouldn't hurt, what are they supposed to do? They have nothing except their clothes." the women laughed a little but the man didn't say anything but probably nodded or did another gesture since their footsteps were moving closer once again.

I quickly moved so I stood behind the door if they were to open it. The door opened inward,  which created basically the only hiding spot in the room. 

The door opened slowly and when they didn't see me directly they opened the door more to try to see where I was. I squeezed myself to the wall just to make sure they wouldn't notice me yet.

"Where is he?" i could hear a slight panic in the woman's voice as she let go of the door and walked inside fully with the man following behind her. "This can't be right! There was someone here! We saw the door close before, right?" I could hear as the man looked around the room.

With a slam I shut the door and quickly moved over and switched the light off so now it was completely dark and i had them exactly where i wanted. Now I had the upper hand no matter if I had weapons or not, since my vision in the dark was incredible. Fighting in the dark was one of the things i taught myself quickly when most of the electricity had disappeared because of the zombie outbreak.

"What's happening!?" The women spoke loudly clearly startled from the sudden action. "Is there someone there?!" It sounded like she was about to cry. I didn't answer, i only moved over to the other side making sure they heard my footsteps, scaring them a little couldn't hurt. 

"There is someone here!"  the man spoke loudly, you could hear how tense he was. The man started feeling in the air around himself probably trying to locate a wall or the door. I watched him struggle some more before the women spoke up "I-I'm scared Michael, can't you find the fucking door or at least the light switch?!" she was sounding really distressed. 

"I'm fucking trying and if you haven't noticed, IT'S COMPLETELY DARK, how do you expect me to navigate, huh!?" he had finally lost it, he was probably as scared as the women.  "Ha why are you guys screaming?" I smirked even tho it wasn't visible in the dark. I quickly moved over towards the woman "As you said, i only have my clothes, why would i be dangerous then?" I whispered in the woman's ear and moving away quickly as she hit the air round her and screamed. 

"Are you alright Stacy?!" The man, or Michael as he was called tried to find the women in the dark. "I have a gun, whoever is here! i'm warning you!" The man raised his voice and i could hear the sound metal sound of a gun cocking. "A-and I have a knife!" Stacy said sounding less confident.

I laughed and walked around the room watching them. "I'm gonna kill you if you touch us!" the man said and pointed the gun around recklessly. "Oh please I wouldn't do that if I was you, these walls are made of concrete" I paused just to build some more tension "The bullet would most likely just ricochet off the walls and hit something else and not me, maybe even you" I chuckled "Why don't you try finding the door instead, oooor you could let me out of here, and keep your mouth shut" I whispered the last words to the man.

The man flinched and tried hitting me with the gun but I dodged. Suddenly there was a small light and i realised the woman had opened what looked like a phone. I quickly moved over and hit it out of her hands and the phone hit the floor, breaking as she gasped and flinched backwards.

I realised moving in front of her was a mistake since she probably had time to see me before the light of the phone disappeared.

"I saw his face in the light!" she almost screamed as she moved forward again slashing with the knife in the air. I quickly moved aside, dodging the knife.
